>> yeah. otherwise you track pollen all over the house. >> i had no idea. >> if you got kids, you got to wash them off. they're like pollen collectors. and the other thing is saline. you have to irrigate your nose and just let it all fall out. >> and take a shower too. >> that's a good idea. >> well, good morning and gesundheit as we are starting off this saturday morning. got a blustery southwest wind stirring the pollen up. we have a weather alert day due to a risk of storms later. look out to the west. this is the direction from where these storms will come. it is starting to get a little bit dark as we have it pushing into the panhandle of west virginia. look at our temperatures climbing into the mid-60s throughout much of the region. reagan national now is at 63 degrees. storm team 4 radar showing the leading edge, just some rain. these are not storms. just some rain. the light green coming into the panhandle of west virginia. then it's going to be coming along the 81 corridor.

when that happens, that's when they could turn into strong storms. all of this is tracking off due east. right now just storms out of the mountains. but getting more intense as they come closer to us. here's the hour-by-hour timing. this is as of noontime, this is when we'll likely see some of those storms right along the 81 corridor and then crossing the blue ridge and south mountain heading east. then right around 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. coming from the western northern suburbs right through the metro area. eastern suburbs 3:00 to 4:00 crossing the bay after that. and then clearing out. we'll have our risk -- the main risk is high winds and hail. only a very low risk of an isolated tornado. temperatures in the 60s by the time the rain starts to come through. maybe even low 70s. storm team 4 ten-day outlook will be in the low 50s tomorrow. blustery winds with sunshine.
