the chance is there, that placement can be anywhere across the area. as we move on into your friday evening, we continue to track showers you'll notice them stopping here at 2:00 a.m., more pockets of heavy rain. we could see rain fall rates at times of maybe 2 to 3 inches per hour, that's when the flash flooding concerns really come in. 8:00 a.m. on saturday, we're still tracking showers and unfortunately, look at the afternoon and evening hours, still a chance for mainly light showers in the forecast at that point. the road conditions, these next few days, tonight is going to be just fine, most of us completely dry. tomorrow there is the chance for some widely scattered liegts showers up there. but it's really tomorrow evening on into saturday morning where we're tracking wet roads out there and the potential for some areas of flooding, especially on the roads, so you want to be cautious for hydroplaning and never drive through a flooded roadway. weekend weather outlook, yard

in the storm center with a look what all this means for all of us. >> first, carnival chaos, the fun of a summer fair shattered by tragedy. we'll hear from people who saw it and s

involved in a deadly accident that they're recommending grind operators stop using similar rides across the country, that includes a ride in association city maryland. >> one person died and seven others injured on a ride called fireball. the ride broke apart mid flight, sending terrified riders tumbling nearly two stories to the ground. >> chris has the latest and we have to warn you that some of the video can be tough to watch. >> a bystander's cell phone camera captured the moment that fun night at ohio state fair turned into disaster. >> people are like 60 feet up. >> the ride called the fireball broke apart in midair. >> it was at its highest point and i saw somebody fall on the ride and then a minute later, the whole row of seats fell off. >> terrifying riders came crashing to the ground. one of them 18-year-old, a recent recruit

corps was killed, seven others were injured, some critically. >> this is just tragedy. >> as seen in this video, it takes riders on an aggressive thrill ride and the ride inspector said it had been checked thoroughly. >> it's been looked at about three or four times over the course of two days. >> the fair is put on by the agriculture department who ordered all other rides shutdown until reinspected. >> when we feel that we have gotten our complete inspection done, then we will open the midway again. >> investigation will continue. >> while the governor promised a thorough investigation but pleaded that people keep coming to the state fair. >> it will be lessons that will be learned in one way or another that could then be passed on to many of the amusement parks and fairs all across america. >> no one has even speculating yet on the cause of the accident. chris, nbc news. >> you've beenei

the nbc washington facebook page about this, does the deadly accident in ohio make you think twice about carnival rides, almost all of you say you're thinking twice now or that you don't buy them any way. right now, the u.s. military is waiting to make any changes to its transgender policy, until president trump issues the directive through formal channels and not just over twitter. they're looking for clarification to what exactly he meant when he tweeted about the tremendous medical cost, calling them "a burden." nbc news pentagon hans nicholls hash through it. it seem to indicate they can't afford the medical care, what do we know about that, is that the case. >> it's not argument we've heard here. the issue of transgender at the pentagon has really been focused on what you do for new recruits, right? they were suppose to have guidelines in place on july 1.

they had a six month delay. what you do for current service members who have identified as transgender is there's a whole process in place, last year they were told that they will be allowed to identify with the gender of their choosing and there are, by some estimates, anywhere for up to 7,000, that's the high end of number of individuals. here, people are telling us more in the couple hundreds and the cost, i'll get to the cost argument here, $8.4 million which is a rant study, that presupposes several thousand individuals that are going to need some sort of medical treatment. in reality, the numbers probably closer to 100, at least, so far those that have come far in the last year or so. >> okay, there's still some explaining to do when it comes to that. >> a lot of explaining, it's not quite confusion here at the pentagon, but they want more guidance, they want clarity from the white house on what president trump intends what he means. they're saying right now policy has not changed here rs they'll continue to treat transgender individuals service members and

they're saying they treat everyone in the military, needs to treated people with respect and nothing has changed, guys. >> switching gears here to another topic, the house voted this week to impose new sanctions on russia, that's punishment for meddling in the election here. the house typically leads foreign policy matters to the president. so what does this kind of message does this send to the president. >> well, it's clear veto proof. when you look at the margins, this is something the president does veto. so when you have that kind of clear message from at least one house of congress, that gives you an indication, it gives the president very little room to veto it or to back down because then he knows he'll appear weak and it will be overrated. >> streaming on that out force, we'll follow it where it goes, stick around for analysis on both of these developing stories tonight and comes this way on after news 4 at 6:00. we're in the storm team 4 weather center with amelia

torrential rain this weekend. the impacts for a lot of folks if you live in areas that you just know, they have the tendency to flood, if you've got a basement apartment, you just know it happens all the time whenever you get a little bit -- >> yeah, exactly, if you just mention, those folks that need to be concerned, if you're -- and consider changing your plans, try leaving tomorrow afternoon or holding on until down and i'll show you what you can expect, heaviest and the most rain will be following fur your friday evening on into early saturday morning, as erica has said. we'll see about 1 to 3 inches, potentially, more in isolated locations looking at the flash flood guidance in our area. we can take on 1 to 3 inches, any more could lead to flooding concerns, that's why everybody is in that flash flood watch. what can
