complete lack of any snowfall here in the month of february looking outside, mostly clearly and a lot of clouds out there but there are slivers of sunshine trying to get through. temperatures in the mid to upper 40s. average snowfall for february, we get 5.8 inches of snow. since 1888, february has failed to measure even one inch of snow about 25% of the time. 36 februarys in the last 140 years failed to have an inch of snow. this one may be number 37. as there is little snow out here on the radar but temperatures are way above freezing. accumulating any snow will be next to impossible. heavier rain across parts of the lower bay but our next real change in the weather arrives later this afternoon. little ripple of moisture here with rain drops and few wet snow flakes at the higher elevation, that's the leading edge of the much colder air that will change things up as we go through tonight and into tomorrow. behind that front in addition to the cold comes back the wind. winds picking up

afternoon and tomorrow is going to be a very blustery kind of day. future weather carries a chance for passing snow showers, especially out wist of the blue ridge. 3:00 or 4:00 today that rain chance will push off the delmarva coast and back into sunshine. mid and upper 40s across the area. an inconvenient amount of light rain and flurries, going to be just about it. next couple of days, shape up this way. 48 today, only 39 tomorrow, with a gusty northwesterly wind. windchills in the teens and 20s all day tomorrow feeling like winter for a change. but it's only a one day cold snap, back to average on friday. saturday and sunday really mild, back in the 60s, coming up in a bid i'll have your president's day forecast and full ten-day. >> still ahead on news 4 midday, a look at dads and depression. >> what effect the ntalme

>> you're trying to bring these people together. >> correct, there is vocational rehab and family network on disabilities and countless organizations that are providing information, are creating programs and a lot of the programs are being created because we the parents are asking for it. >> good idea. well the pregnancy can put a lot of stress on a mom but fathers can experience mood changes too. researchers in new zealand interviewed a group of men during the third trimester and nine months after the baby was born. 2% experienced depression system toms during and 4% after. depression symptoms were prevalent among men who were stressed and had poor health. depression affects approximately 16 million adults each year this this country, making it one of the most common mental health

joins us with several facts that might surprise you. >> my pleasure. >> this idea that depression is solely a chemical imbalance. you say that's not necessarily the case. >> that doesn't tell the whole story. most people think it's a problem with three neurotransmitters being too low. and that's a theory and it probably does account for some of the people who have depression, but one other theory is that this is actually a problem with inflamation. there's a marker ever inflammation called c reactive protein. when you measure those levels, you find those are elevated in a third of patients and what we found from studies is that for those patients, if you give them an anti-inflammatory like aspirin or eye bu proefen they'll respond more rapidly and have a greater chance of re

neurotransmitters. >> people think that depression is a mental health issue but you say there are other things heart health for example that can be impacted by depression as well, right? >> so we know from a study that came out -- we've known for a while that depression and heart health are interrelated. a study found having depression is as much of a risk factor for vul heart attack as being obese or having high cholesterol. we all know about that. we also know that people who have had a heart attack and are depressed are twice as likely to die from a heart attack. it could be tied to my answer to first question which is there's elevated levels of inflamation and inflamation plays a role in heart disease as well. >> it makes me think as you're dealing with one issue and dealing with heart health issues you might also have some need to talk about some of the psychology or the psychiatry aspects or al

well. >> the mind body connection and goes beyond things for heart health and aplaplies to pain an back pain. they are closely related. >> let's go deeper on that. heart health, depression and pain too? >> right, we know that people who are depressed are more plikly to experience pain and people with pain more likely to complain of their pain if they are depressed. that's why one of the treatment options for people dealing with pain to give them anti-depressant medication that can lower their pain problem. >> another thing that was surprising, some people with depression can become psychotic. >> yes so this is generally something that only happens in people who are severely depressed. and this happens in about a quarter to a third of people. what i mean by spsychosis, they have false beliefs that they

government is following them and hearing voices and can't organize their thoughts. a lot of people don't realize that can happen just from being very depressed. >> a few seconds left here, aside from those issues, you can have memory problems, almost so bad that people think the depression is connected to kmen sha. >> people will say i'm worried i'm losing my mind. can't focus on what they are reading and forget why they are there. there's a term it's called pseudodementia, due to being very depressed. affects the cognitive process so much. >> don't ever ignore it if you're feeling you might be depressed or something more than sad, you want to seek help. >> absolutely. >> thank you. we appreciate you. >> my pleasure. >> many of us scream for ice cream but not with our coffee. what starbucks is offerinto satisfg y

how many will do this. >> in vegas? for sure. >> more power to you, right. >> let's turn to chuck bell. 45 degrees. is that about it? >> not much of a warm-up from here but 47 is average. we're not that far off the mark for a typical february kind of day. >> average is good. >> average is overrated at times. so cloudy skies for sure. we are getting a little break of sunshine from time to time as well. weather impacts not more than an inconvenient swipe or two of the wipers across the windshield. light rain and maybe a flurry or two possible. flurries pretty much limited to elevations above 1,000 feet. the other thing you'll notice later today, it's going to start to get breezier around here once again. for tomorrow feeling like winter of all things and we've only had 10 or 12 days this whole winter that have been 5 degrees or more colder than average. my mental way of thinking of a cold day. it's supposed to be a little chilly in

with windchills in the 20s all day. so much warmer, looks like sunday may be on the cloudy side but we're keeping rain chances out of the forecast for sunday as of now. we'll keep you posted on that. once the front goes by, winds will pick up, gusts 25 to as much as 30 to 35 miles per hour across the area. checking live radar on the nbc washington app and yes indeed snow showers up there along the chest of the mountains northern frederick county, and right to the shenandoah valley and mostly rain but some of the high spots that will be coming down in the form of wet snow. around the city, probably going to be light sprinkles of rain but we'll keep you posted on that. temperatures 40s to around 50. not big changes in temperature for the rest of the day, cloudy with showers again starting to

there's your extended forecast, president's day weekend forecast, saturday and sunday and monday, three days in the 60s, it might be more of a beach weekend than a snow skiing weekend with temperatures that mild.

>> dr. sheehan, you just got back from india and you're planning to go again in the fall. you're doing lots of important things in the medical facility there. really important just basic health things for the girls and seeing them for other ailments. so important especially in a situation like this one. explain how that works. >> that would be a way which we would have a video conference between the doctor and nurse there in the health center and emergency room doctor in the united states. this they were seeing a difficult patient and weren't sure how to treat that, the video conferencing that would go over to the emergency room doctor in the united states, they could see a picture and make a diagnosis and immediately turn the recommendations back to the health center. >> we're talking about teaching the girls basic hygiene too, you might not learn in a very rural area. >> absolutely true. >> very important. talk about the future? what's next? >> this

we've just started is huge, we have just finished construction on a new building which is where many of our mothers get job opportunities, creating linens and we have partnerships with companies helping provide our girl graduates with jobs. we're hoping our girls now become doctors and teachers of the future. >> i love is so much. the thing about paying it forward, we were talking again what can people do? not everybody can go overseas and volunteer and have the medical ground but anybody can pay for a year of education, sponsor a girl, why not get a neighborhood together, everybody does a month, right? >> that's a great idea. they can combine resources and sponsor a girl, see that girl graduate that would be wonderful. >> dr. sheehan, we know right now you guys have two guys

helping install solar panels which is incredible when you think about these people have no electricity at all or bringing in something so advanced as a solar panel. why do you volunteer? >> boy, i guess several years ago a patient of mine encouraged me to volunteer. when i arrived there were no doctors or nurses or no hospitals. there was essentially no medical care. the reason i volunteer is to try to bring health care to this i am pofrished area of north india. >> tell me about this gala, every october to raise money, right? >> we have a wonderful gala here in the area. it happens in october every year where our guests can meet a girl from the school and which i call heroes and help us raise funds for this great cause. >> very good. thank you so much for being here. wonderful way to pay it forward. we'll have much more on the nbc washington
