bit da birthday. i do, because i have told everyone for the last twoth wee today is my birthday. this morning it's absolutely gorgeous, those temperatures will continue to rise from the 60s to the mid to upper 80s as we continue through the day. let's head to the maps and show you what's going on outside. another beautiful view, that sun coming up in about 20 minutes. taking a look at the headlines, building humidity today, we do have a few shower chances this afternoon and also tomorrow afternoon, and we are getting hotter over the next several days. we're slipping a little bit during the 6:00 a.m. hour,s far as current temperatures in the 60s, not quite as cool as yesterday morning, but it's

rapidly warming. 88 degrees will be our daytime high today, and just a few chances of it's lite eisolated . and temperatures are back into th 90s, with higher humidity tomorrow. we're not seeing anything this morning, a lot of this is going to be confined to the higher elevations, right around the blue ridge mountains. we also have a chance tomorrow, when you make your way to work or perha kids going back to school. but again, we'll have another chance of showers and storms popping up across the region tomorrow afternoon. the main thing we'reo going talking about the next few days, those heates ind are going to

be in theriple digits. again a stray storm possible tomorrow. our best chance of rain will come thursday afternoon as a cold fronts through the area, we'll continue with rain chances on friday, perhaps saturday morning befor humidity drops next weekend. >> a little bit of everything. thanks lauryn. 6:14, up next is "reporters notebook." >> we're going to take a look at some of the stories we have been talking about this week. the kids obviously are back at school now, guys, back at school or going back to school very on. one of the things, scott, that jumped out to me was youood into just how safe the kids are, as they're coming and going walking to and from school. >> a lot of whatno we about

safety around school, and students going to school is anecdotal. we asked the local police agenes to give us their numbers, how many speeding, distracted driving, safe driving around scols. the numbers are quitetrikstriki traffic accidents but the hundreds in loudoun and prince george'scounty. we're talking about infractions in school zones, very sensitive areas. this is something thatverybody plays a role in migating, but it's not just the people passing through the school zones, it's the parents of the kids doing the dropoffs who are speeding

aw or using the phone as they drive away leaving their children on the side of the stre. >> they need to use their cell phone because their boss is calling or they need to return an email. >> when you're at the drop off ti point and time, that ends at ar n time. and we have done stories in the past about school busses and the stop sign arm that goes out and how many cars pass that stop sign, thousands.ll the ti so as we get into school mode, it's time for payple to closer attention. >> do you see any difference between fairfax county, prince george's, loudoun? >> d.c is different in that it didn't have traditional schoo zones. so it's going to be apples and

oranges in the other counties. but this isn't any different in virginre. but there driving challenges everywhere. so sadly this is a problem for everybody. but police are doing extra patrols, one of the things they are checking for, parents who have improperly buckled their children into the seat belts or the car seat. those cases kept popping and it was more than expected. >> when is it okay for kids to bstart walking oring to school on their own. and we talked to somebody with fairfax county police that said it's a good idea for mom or dad to map that rte aheadf time. so the kids know exactly how they're going and the safest way to get there, if there are any problem areas, m or dad is

aware of it ahead of time and the kids as well. >> that's something that has transcended forbeur area, use there's no bus services for most kids. if the child has to walk with siblings, or walk with an older student. especially a kindergartner or first grader saying, okay, go walk to school. >> we have kids that are in elementary school. how old would you think is old ough to let your -- >> oh, man, really, chris? iave an 8-year-old, that's my oldest, there's no way i would let her walk to school by herself. but i'm not there yet, so i don't know in that capacity what

my child is o capable doing and kind of the geographic makeup of the route to your school. if you live across a highway, there's no way. >> what do you get the mosted ck about? some number would say the school bus routes, they wish their kids had school bus routes, but they're just a fewm feet f where there's bus service, but this is a real issue that people care about. >> fairfax county says about 10 years old. and we're talking about speeding drivers, adam, you looked into alexandria, making a major

change to a prettyig road that could affect a lot of people coming into the area. >> just north of old town alandria, thepeed limit dropped from 25 miles an hour to 20 miles an hour. the d.c. plan aims to eliminate all traffic-related fatalities and injurieser by ain year, so they're working towards a goal of cutting down these crashes and these types of things that's why they did it, but they also looked at high eed corridors where they could reduce their speed limit. but if you drive that area, it'e by thtomac yard shopping center, you remember they were considering putting a football stadium there. but if you drive down that corridor, there's condos all in

that development, and so people have to slow down because you have peopless cg the street, and even dropping the speed limit 10 miles an ho in that stretch they say will only add a minute to drivers' time in that corridor. and all the studies say if you get hit b a car going 30 miles an hour, it's not going to look good. but if you are hit by someone going 25 miles an hour, your cha chances are a lot better. you ow, that stretch of route 1, people used to lookt like a boulevard, and people go 40 miles an hour. but things are changing around here and it should, because it's not the same region we had 10

years ago. >> in montgomery county, the county is iing making easier for people to get speed hutc humps because they know that the back roads are a place people try to -- high volumes of traffic are passing those roads as people try to avoid each other. >> on that note we'll be right back with

welcome back to "reporters' annotebook." i to talk to you about sort of an icon of anyone i comingo georgetown or coming over the key bridge, the first thing you

see is that exxon sign. >> the exxon sign has been ripped off the overhead canopy there, there's no one there, it's legitimrdely b up. the condos are supposed to iner and no one knowshen those condos will go, but yha a gas station that you probably use all the time. peop identify with that gas station, and people going over the bridge, as you enter the district to gasr up as you leave the district. and the exit steps lead down to the base of where this whole property is. d.c. could have been sincilmemb who represents the district is so concerned that the city is

losing gas stations that d.c. is going to turn into manhattan where you will have to lea city to get gas and then come back to the city. and he has beenushing for a number of years to protect those ations. but this area has an amazing view of the river, so condos are going to go up. but when you have theseti prop that people are so s areiar with, but con going to go in there. >> d.c. actually has a gas station advisory board, but it hasn't beened sta in, what a decade? look intotarted to gas stations that are left. and there are a number that are going away, so we are going to find this in the future, of

where you can get gas. >> it's not easy to be a service station in a major american city. these are hard to get passed, in suburban areas especially. people don't like the blight of a gas station coming into the city. >> d.c. has seen such a push to be a more walkable, bikable community. and originally this gas station advisory board was to protect these gas stations, to have enough to service the city. itaseally been left to rot. one of the other things i want to talk about is something that's been making national headlines, i'm sure you have heard or been watching the paul manafort trial, i wonder could take us inside and tell us

sort of the local figures that have been cnvolved in thise and where it stands now. >> that gets lost, because this such a national, if not international story that crosses all across the country, but this is happening at the federal urthouse in alexandria, and in eral eeks, it hits the f courthouse in d.c. but in the beginning, it was local prosecutors, it was virginia based prosecutors, a manho led the prosecution team had local roots, believed to be a rising sta and has had some cases of note, he had a case that led to advisory leader mark standoff. and we got to hear an awful lot about the judges in t case who has been in that courthouse some time. these cases have an impact that

invoe local stake hoed holders it clearly gets lost in the national coverage. >> the news seems to come very quickly. >> this is the first taste the people have gotten of tax you have these hero jurors who haveo sit through days and days ofl methodi minutia. and they have to go through those boxes, boxes and boxes of idence. i'mure people who are familiar with bank fraud are surprised to see a multi day trial. >> let's not forget the interns who delivered the verdict. >> great photo, wasn'tit? >> no cell phones allowed in the federal courthouse in virginia. >> normally when a you see big rally in d.c. and there's no

real violence, nothing big happens, you would consider that a sucss, but i'm not so sure metro is considering what happened at the white nationalist rally a success, because they took a lot of blow back from that how is the fallout now? >> there are no clear answers that are being given about what specific happened on that day. the whole lead up to all of this etwas, is going to set aside a specific rail car or train these white nationalists that are coming for this rally. w metrot back and forth the whole week, there's no way that's going to happen, you heard that from metro chair steve evans, and then that day, it looked an awful lot like you saw these white nationalists arding this rail car, the national union pushed back and

y didthey can't believe t this and set aside a specific trail car for thisroup and transported these people. meanwhile the city spentns millf dollars on a rally that really didn't have much pop to it. there were way more counter protesters than white nationalists they came to the scene, we still don't know what their plan was. they'll tell you it's their security detail. t it sure looked an awful lot like they were providing a special service for these people. now ifouook at it from a different perspective, well, yeah, they were trying to avoid any kind of protester and counter protester clash happening. but it gets stri s tricky when start treating people differently. >> thanks so much guys for that insight and we hope you enjoy

reporters notebook, have a great day. the remarkable life of one of the luntry'songest serving senators has ended. john mccaipassed airwway just a day h aft family announced he would end treatment. and months after two people were stabbed to deary at a montgo county mall, police need help identifying the suspected killer. welcome in to news4 today, at 6:31 on this sunday morning, it is a somber morning, a busy morning, we're going to get more on senator mccain's passing in just a fews. minu but thank you for being here. >> we have chuck toddoining us

here shortly to talk and remember senator john mccain in just a littl while. but first we do want to turn our attention to lauryn ricketts, she's joining us from the storm team 4ther center, and the sun is up. >> yes, it is, it's 6:32 and right now the sun is coming nou. quite as cool as the past couple of mornings, where we has temperat dipping into the 50s and we had a little haze out there right now, but we do have ndsome sunshine some clouds in place now. 69 degrees is our temperature. lwe'll slip atle bit as we go through the 7:00 a.m. hour, and reose tempera will start to come back up, by 11:00, we're already nearing 80 degrees. humidity is going to continue throughout the day as well. we are dry at this point, however we do have a chance for some isolated showers and

president obama redeeand presid bush released statements. >> president trump andist lady melania tweeted out their prayers and sympathies for the mccain family and the tweets have been pouring from his friends on both sides of the aisle, lindsay graham said america and freedom are -- they just don't make them like john mccain anymore. for 60 years, he has served our country, as a man in uniform and a maverick statesman. androm jeffflake, words can not express the sorrow i feel a jo mccain's passing, the world has lost a here -- hero and

states man. no to a break in the case this little girl gunned down by r home in thedistrict. detectives have identified a second suspectut he's sti on the run. the arrest broughtomcomfort to mikia's mother. >> basically overwhelmed with the news. >> and for once, itoras good news donnetta wilson. >>as i a sense of relieve to you to get that phone call. >> police arrest eed kuwan thos and they have an arrest warrant for another man. >> what would you say to the man

who turned himself in? >> you broke me, that was my heart, that was my baby. >> reporter: both men were indicted on prince george's county on drug charges and both en were released on bond just three days before maykia was killed. makiya older sister's arm is still bandaged. >> there are at least three otr men who are responsible for this little girl's death and you can rest assur that we will not rest until all of them have been held accountable for makiyah's murder. >> this was a 10-year-old chi and we are calling on thec pub to helpou ouus. >> reporter: there is small shrine in makiyah's home. >> i know that makiyah would

want justice and i want justice for my baby. >> were, we still waiting to learn more about the deadly, fiery crash near the wilson bridge, we brought you this as breaking news yesterday morning, and we'll be able to get you that. you can seely flames engulfing a carhere, the driver actually died. a single car crash happened on route 10, it happened earlier yesterday morning, r theoute is well known for deadly crashes and police are still trying to determine how it happened. and in fairfax county, another car kille twopeople. the crash happened on old mount vernon road, all we know is that tw cars were involved in this crash here. > two men remain in contribute conditi critical condition. this is in upper marlboro,ou

can seehe car's smashed in window. you can see one of the teen's shoes. officers say the driver did stay on the scene. t was a tense day at north carolina's chapel hill. this was a year after -- yesterday police were out in force to return the statue nickname ed silent sam. the statue was in storage until they replaced it this week. well, y when go out to dinner, you don't usually have to bring your own food and tabl but thousands of people did in d.c. the annual dinner en blanc.

people bring all their supplies down to the chairs and decorations. it's something fun, it's something different and you don't find this every day, so i think the appeal is the surprise. >> and part of i that surpri that the dinner is at a different location every year and the location isn't until minutes before the event. that's so, so cool. >> my surprise would be ruining my white outfit. done.sily we're looking at 6:39 early on this sunday morning, we're coming off of a beautt,ul ni waking up to a dry morning, but there are changes in the

end of the day, the guy caredhe about institution of democracy and theyhe cared abous own position. we're in aorrible state in our politics let's not beat around the bush. >> you're right. >> and he was one of the last thople that was holding it all up. e was a sense that john mccain, if things are crumbling be him, he's somehow holding up the ceiling from collapsing, the proverbial fe feeling, there's axt sense of loss. >> he was the t first toe the hand of a younger lawmaker and try to show them the ropes and really be a mentor to them. so looarng fo is there a new mccain? is there anyone who has the kind

of profile to step up and fill those shoes? >> he didn't just do that with lawmakers. it's also -- all right, there's no doubt he loved the press, lov d is the wrong word, but i love that he sn't a snob about it, i only talk to david brinkley, i only talk to tom brokaw. ioty first interview with him in '9 an internet chat, something calleds polit now. you talk tony veteran reporters who w 20 years ago, mccain was the first to acknowledge me. also for new senators. danielri p moynihan when he died, it took a while to know

who s going to fill the hole, and turned out it was john mccain. you know, look, i don't wanto name som senators right now and say, oh, they are there. but i hopeee this as we remember, and you hear the stories about john mccain, i hope his 99 colleagues in the senate will learnsomething. >> this was perhaps one of the most unforgettable weeks for the president, you had the paul manafort verdict come down, we have all the -- >> his personal lawyer admits gu he's ty, his former campaign chairman is found guilty and apparently whole bunch of his allies are feeling guilty and they're now turning on him and cooperating with the vernment. you put all that together and

you have a president who is feeling isolated. i think you see that isolation in the o tonef his tweets. the town and the political community has been in mourning about john mccain for 72 hours, and the president has been r arksz -- nobody has endured more sort of wallslosing in moments than this president. he did it as a businessman in the '90s, so he isn't afraid of staring into theby, which is an unusual attribute for a president. >> ahead a reminder that you can seere "meet the" comes up every sunday right here after news4 today. thanks, chuck, so much. when it comes to gas station, how about this one, you

probably have a favorite. one of the most recognizable ones in our area is gone. >> the exxon gas station is shuttered for redevelopment. >> this gas station closing could be part of a problem that people in new york are already familiar with, i took a closer look at the k.situation earlier this w >> when is a gas station more than a gas station? when it sits on prime real estate, iconic may be too strong of a word here, b the key bridge exxon in georgetown, cert hnly has plenty of recognitio as usnd use, and the fact that it's goneas drive concerned. >> yes, this location, i think it's a big deal. >> as you leave the district, there's no place to fuel up. >> if you're running out of gas, you need to sto somewhere else

for gas or else you're out of luck. >> people will listen to me when it's too late usually,that's when happens. we're running out of gas stations in this city. and we'll be manhattan soon where you won't be able to buy gas in the city, you'll have to leave this tnn order to buy gas. >> it literally at the bass of georgetown's famed exorcist steps, this plot of lan draws a lot of tourists. and this plot of land was the site of the d.c. gondola. that project seems even more unlikely. it's not certain when it all will be torn down, but the gas station is now gone. >> i never thought i would be d about gas stations. >> so many people know that gas station and more condos going up and the councilmember makes an interesting point, are we

running out of places where we can get gas, itill be interesting to see how it's all going. time right now is 6:49. guess who's here, the birthday girl? >> yes, party. >> lauryn ricketts, i said you were 16 years, but ryou'relly 21. but happy birthday to you, you ve delivered some spectacular weather for yourself. >> yes, it is gorgeous out there right now and a little on the coside. >> is a heat wave coming in i mean what is it. >> i upped the numbers a little bit. >>ou went up a lot. and just wait, i had to adjust some numbers as new information came in as we usually6:o at , we get more and more adjustin, so i wanted to a few things up.
