out there. as we look to tuesday, some rain in the forecast, mainly later in the day, and then, next weekend, kind of a tricky forecast, there is a chance for rain, but what's tricky, the temperatures we're going to be near 70 degrees or cold once again in the 40s. i'm leaning towards the slightly warmer solution. currently temperatures are in the 20s, 25 in leesburg and indianapolis, 26 here in town. plenty of sunshine right now. and we'll keep sunny skies around throughout the day. high of 43. so very similar to yesterday, but the winds won't be as blustery. so the weather having a low impact on your sunday. a nice day for some late season skiing and snow boarding at round top, white tail and liberty are closed. outdoor exercise definitely on the cold side. you'll want the layers even the gloves. heading out and about, getting your errands done today. warm, puffy coat, and sunglasses. it's going to be a good day. still though too early for yard work. last freeze on average is toward the end of the month. and we're looking at

look to frild and next weekend, that is that tricky forecast. right now we'll have highs generally above normal in the low 60s on friday. saturday and sunday, we have highs in the low to mid-50s. the chance for rain just about every day. really difficult right now to nail down that exact time and stay tuned for updates. also mark this, you're not going to forget, this is the time that you grow when daylight savings time begins. it's not ending. so we lose that hour of sleep next sunday as we spring forward with our clock. and then after that, monday and tuesday, the chance for showers and high temperatures in the mid-50s, low 60s, guys. stories about russia. roared back into the news about president trump's address to congress on tuesday. and trump said that these stories amounted to quote, a political witch hunt. >> are they a witch hunt or a real story? consider these developments when
