i'll make sure to point out the numbers on the 10-day. first let's talk about the rain that's going to continue moving in overnight tonight as the winds increase. take a look here at storm team 4 radar. really, it's this steady area of rain down in the southeast that's going to push in overnight tonight and throughout the day tomorrow. i'm seeing the steadiest and heaviest rain around the midmorning and midday hours. right now we have parts of georgia, south carolina and florida under tornado watches. thankfully no severe weather in our area, but we are going to be dealing with strong winds, and of course we're going to have the storm ranger deployed in a situation like this as we track the nor'easter in the area tomorrow with the rains and the winds. right now it's situated in belmar, new jersey. picking up light showers in the area and that will be the case for the evening hours. look at 6:00 a.m. it's raining everywhere. the yellow, that's a moderate rain. notice what happens as we move to 9:00 a.m. think about if you're heading to work around this time. this is a steady, moderate

potentially even heavy rain in the fredricksburg area. definitely want to budget some more time tomorrow morning. as we move to the afternoon and evening hours, we start to see scattered showers and the winds kind of dying down overnight, but tuesday it's still pretty windy out there. your outlook for your monday, the morning commute, moderate rain slowing you down. the winds out there as well. recess for the kids, it's likely indoors tomorrow. the evening commute, some showers are possible, damp roads are likely. if you're planning on heading to whitetail, liberty, rain is in the forecast. not the best day for skiing if you do happen to have monday off. currently we're in the 40s and 50s, 50 in the district, 47 in frederick and 40 in gaithersburg. we don't move much in our temperatures. we start around 50 tomorrow morning, and throughout date we find ourselves in the upper 40s. again, the steadiest and heaviest rain and strongest winds will be in the

showers for the afternoon and evening hours, but still pretty blustery. most of your tuesday completely dry. it will be windy, though. highs around 50. take a look at wednesday. it's a nice day, near 60 degrees. thursday plenty of clouds, a high of 52. then we transition to cooler weather. next weekend, erica, sunday a high of 39, saturday a high temperature of around 31 degrees. keeping a close eye on rain increasing tonight as a nor'easter impacts us throughout the day tomorrow. >> unusually mild weather. still ahead, the redskins with promotions at

they're suffering their second big play, making it one of the best teams in the country. today rutgers took their best shot against the terps. >> in basketball we defend, we rebound and we run. >> brenda freeze fired up her team as always, but it would be close. maryland freshman destiny slocum said anything you can do i can do better. drained in this long 3 just before the buzzer. the native shoots it from what feels like boise. the terps go up 4, perhaps giving them some momentum. in the third quarter, up now 19. terps with the steal, they take it for 2. maryland improves to 19-1. coach freis didn't like slowing down in that first half. >> my least favorites, it's like going to the

drilled. we love the up tempo transition. credit to them in the first half. they did a phenomenal job in terms of winning out with their style play, but we were able to punch that open and break that open in terms of what we wanted to do in the third quarter. >> john thompson the third in georgetown visiting 19th xavier. l.j. peak tying the game with 30. georgetown down three. second half, two-point game, jonathan millmar heads down court. pryor had a team high of 23 points. xavier too far down the stretch. point guard edward sumner gets the hoop and the foul. sumner, who came up with an injured soldier, still had quite the line. 14 points, seven rebounds, seven assists. georgetown falls
