they have been married since 2011. and he filed for divorce last year. avenatti has been a high profile critic of president trump and of course as we mentioned, he is the attorney for the adult film star who says that s had a sexual encounter with the aiesident. the democrat has that he may run for president in 2020. back to you guys. and doug,atching those wild fire, we have seen so much kichblg of th coverage, but tans is beyond hing we've seen. >> and it just continues. you talk to some of people that live out there and i interviewed some people that i go out there and fight these fires from idaho, brought down to parts of california. used to be a fire season. now it is yearly. all year round. and it will continue. you talk about clima change, this is one of the reasons that we talk about that. and now the bringing concern fom el nino, the same storm

system that will bring us se snow this winter will also bring us rain. sounds like a good thing, but now you are talking mudslides. they have a l to go through as they continue to battle those wildfires. for us, j it t another storm in our area. out there right now, nothing across our area otcor than just temperatures and clouds cover. current temperature 42. winds out of the northea at 10 miles per hour. the northeasterly wind bringing in cooler atr, yes, this will be a nor'easter tomorrow making its w up the coast. 37 in gaithersburg, 38 culpeper. th latest computer model is taking the temperatures colder tomorrow morning. here is the storm. and follow all of this moisture out of the gulf of mexico w movg ou and edge will in the colder air. and then we'll get the snow, the rain. and this is 6:0 a.m. and notice it is almost all snow

including some moderate snowck ere toward the shenandoah valley and along the blue ridge. by 10:00 a.m.ai thesnow line creeping up to the d.c. metro area. south and east, it is almost all rain. but north and west, this is where we start to get into the wintry mix. and that is why fairfax county i thina good jobf going ahead and saying let's do a two hour delay because then we'll start to seean the rain comeh and we get everybody to school. this h been one of the wettest years of all time in our area. the snow however back to the west, that a bigger factor and that is why we think this area back to the west could be under the gun all day. 6:00 tomorrow night, this is ice, beingaccumulating a nasty day for sure, but again best chance for cancellations backwest. amelia, these are the areas that have the best chances for no schooltomorrow. >> absolutely. and not only cancellations, but

potentially power outages as well. so if you are in that winter storm warning, you need to take it seriously, make sure that you are prepared for your power to go out now because of the snow, but because of the potential for ice to accumulate on top of the snow and that could weigh down trees in the area. so as far as school cancellations, this is my forecast and this is just an idea of what i'm thinking based on the latest. i think we use see some cancellations up around carroll and frederick county, washington county through allloudoun and fauquier and frederi in virginia as well. delays are possible for the counes here in yellow. in fact fairfax already giving the two hour delay tomorrow. ince william and montgomery county right on the line. i think that you might be under a two hr dela and as we see the rain/snow line

maybe move up, it linkers around those counties and it might lead to acacellation. but the bottom line tomorrow morning, it will be slick out thereorn spots and most of us tomorrow evening, we're just dealing with a lot of rain. with the two hourou delay. we'd love to see montgomery county to do itht the n before, instead of the morning their p the parents with day. somebody told me to say that. just saying. 39 degrees on your thursday. again very cold idy. , clearing skies. we'll really be nicely, but still breezy. saturday looks great. sunday not bad, but more clouds cover. the 10 day forecast including thanksgivingack in abo 20 minutes. >> friday with no rain >> gd call.
