66 close in at the beltway where we had the stalled tractor-trailer tieing up the right side of the road causing a backup from 123. that's a check of your fox 5 on- time traffic. let's take a look at our top stories this morning. nine years after a disappearance and scandal that gripped the nation's capital, the road to justice leads to a d.c. courtroom. the chandra levy murder trial starts today. opening statements set to begin this morning. ingmar guandique is accused of murder of the d.c. intern after going for a jog in rock creek park. her remains found there a year later. the trial is expected to last about a month. now the case rerupted -- erupted into a scandal after it

the weekend this. went down early saturday morning. campus police got a call about a strange odor coming from the dorm room. police got inside and found hot plates, several chemicals and an air ventilation system on the 9th floor of harvin hall. the drug enforcement thought they had a meth lab on their hands and that's why students were ordered out quickly but this was not meth, instead dmt. >> anything you put in your body that is synthetically produced, that produces a hallucinogenic high, that produces a you've oria -- a euphoria produced by you don't know whom or where it is a bad decision. >> reporter: at this point police are trying to figure out

how long this was in operation and whether or not any of the students here were buying it. we're live here at georgetown university, sarah simmons. back to you. an update on the fire that caused damage to a historic seminary. these are photos from last week's fire. special agents from falls church are joining in on the investigation. the 129-year-old emanuel chapel burned on friday. estimates put the loss at over $2 million. the sports world is remembering american swimmer fran crippen. the 26-year-old died on saturday while competing for the united states in the 10- kilometer world cup race in the united arab emirates. an investigation is now underway. the winner of the race said the conditions were too hot and organizers should have done more to ensure the safety of the swimmers. he comes from a family of swimmers. he was an all american at the

university of virginia. during his career he earned six u.s. national titles. eight days until the election. maryland governor martin alley is said to have a lead ahead of his point, putting it at 14 points. o'malley holds a 14 point lead over bob ehrlich. and you can watch the debates with the candidates online at myfoxdc.com. the president back on the campaign trail today. doug luzader has more now from capitol hill. >> reporter: the associated press poll shows republicans still have an edge but it's close and that means the president will once again be hitting the road. as it does just about every week, the president's motorcade headed to the golf course. but this will probably be the last outing before the real score card comes in next week. >> you have to say yes we can. >> reporter: today the

president heads out to fundraisers in rode island just as the party chairman is predicting this is helping democrats and they will hold on to congress. >> i do think it will be close but from this point forward it's about turnout and ground game and we're seeing good early voting trends and we have work to do but we think we can do it. >> reporter: republicans thinking they will take both house of congress. >> the senate is tougher but i think we'll be there. if this wave continues the way it has been over the last few weeks especially, i think you could see the senate as well. >> reporter: with the races in place but possible but still a long shot. >> so the entire playing field is among the 19 democratic seats up for grabs. but remember republicans have to take ten of them. it is tough to win ten new seats in one year. >> reporter: difficult but not impossible and that means the

president may have to forego golf next week to scare up votes. both the vice president and first lady are also crisscrossing the country in the final days. doug luzader, fox news. >> as we countdown the days to the election, you can get the latest poll numbers and interviews from the big races here at home and all over the country under politics on the news tab at myfoxdc.com. coming up next, we're getting a live update on the cholera outbreak in haiti. 250 people have died and thousands are sick with the infection that comes from contaminated food and water. we'll get the latest on what is being done to fight the outbreak into and the redskins have a record tieing performance from deangelo hall to come away with a win in chicago. dave ross joins us for monday morning quarterback as well. and the live look outside. we'll get the latest weather and traffic updates on the other side of the break.

stay with us. in congress ehrlich voted with george bush 90% of the time, protecting the special interests. as governor, ehrlich cut education, increased college tuition by 40%, and vetoed an increase in the minimum wage. and after losing his election, bob ehrlich joined a lobbying firm and got paid $2.5 million to represent casinos and wall street banks. bob ehrlich--24 years of putting the special interests first.

we'll start our tour of wicked weather down in texas. how many of these have we seen caught on tape. this tornado ripped through parts of texas and ripped up a high school football field. bleachers all ripped up and several homes and an elementary school damaged and vehicles caught out on the highway. still unclear how many people were hurt. that was down in texas. >> oh, man. honestly, if i never through one of those, it will be okay. >> not a bad thing to miss. around here, what a beautiful weekend. yesterday trees are doing their thing, nice red and gold out there. today more clouds in the forecast but still mild with temperatures back in the low to

mid-70s. maybe some scattered showers and thunderstorms later today. so bring along an umbrella just in case. and we'll start with hd radar and showers out to the west. periods of sunshine this morning but with sure activity pressing into west virginia we'll see if it doesn't move in here during the course of the afternoon. so the blinking on the radar is indicating good thunderstorm activity. they have thunderstorm watches for carolina and eastern tennessee. we'll switch gears and look at national map. we mentioned the tornado yesterday in texas. the other big story is a huge storm into the cascades, in oregon and washington. and you can see the mess pushing toward denver. here in the washington area, a great one yesterday. you can see off to the south and west, i just showed you the shower activity headed in our direction and we'll be in for a so-so day. temperatures still warm but we have an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms. let's do temperatures.

61 in washington. nice, mild start. plenty of warm air to the south. atlanta is 68 degrees. we're once again in the 70s here. salt lake city, 34. that is chilly. in portland, eugene is 49 as well. and temperatures in low to mid- 70s feeling great. a lot of possibilities of showers into the nighttime and then mostly cloudy day tomorrow. if you want warm stuff, wait until wednesday. we'll be near 80 and then a gradual cooldown. friday and saturday highs in the low 60s. in fact by saturday and by halloween we could be in the upper 50s. >> i was going to ask you about that sunday forecast. >> right now it looks fine. >> a little bit of everything in there. let's check in with julie wright and look at traffic. >> steve, i'm already planning, i have something on wednesday, where i can't be here. >> wednesday is a pretty day so far. lanes are open traveling on the top side of the outer loop

leaving 95 to georgia with all lanes open. southbound 270, slowing after the exit for father hurley and montrose toward the split. all lanes open southbound on 29 and the pace is slow at four corners. 95 below speed across the occuquan and slow leaving lorton and from the 395 to seminary before the pace improved. eastbound 66 disabled tractor- trailer cleared but look for delays leaving vienna. that's a check of your fox 5 on- time traffic. another big story we're following this morning, a massive cholera outbreak in haiti months after an earthquake devastated that company. 3,000 people have been infected. it's an intestinal infection by ingested food and water with a bacteria. so far more than 250 people

have died. for a better perspective of how bad things are in haiti we're joined by lisa lawman from save the children. lisa, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> tell us what cholera is. it sounds like an illness that we don't hear a lot about any more? >> well and you're exactly right. it's a bacterial disease. it's transmitted through water. you can get it through your food. and it has a very, very strong effect on the body. so some symptoms are strong diarrhea, vomiting. and some people can carry it with no results and others are effected and in extreme cases some can die in three hours and even less with they are children. >> and we see a makeshift clis happening this in the cup --

happening there in the country? >> people are being advised to seek treatment if they can if they are experiencing symptoms and while they are doing that to start hydration. so for them to drink clean water, use oral hydration and get to help where they can get tested as quickly as possible. so we're expecting to see a larger number of people going to clinics as the message is they need to be suspicious of diarrhea. it is common here. parents see it all of the time and experience it frequently themselves. so if they are experiencing diarrhea, start hydrating and get to a clinic if your symptoms persist. >> and it looks like camps there, some of the 1.3 million survivors there because they are homeless now because of the devastating earthquake. these conditions, it's almost

like the perfect storm for an illness like cholera. am i right in that? >> that's true. conditions are crowded in the camps. they are not very sanitary and hygiene and sanitation is hard in this situation. so there are steps being taken to make sure there is a clean water to the camps and to establish steps for waste removal and control so that those cannot be vectors for the spread of the disease. >> with the moments that we have last, is there anything that we can do watching? it's almost like preaching to the choir talking about what they are going through but is there anything we can do to help? >> i think it's important for everyone to remember that people of haiti continue to need their support, that the recovery of haiti from the earthquake and from the situation now is not something that is a short-term thing. it will require a lot of support from around the world over a long period of time.

as we think about having to recover from the catastrophes, we have to remember that helping the country to build in stronger systems, health care and support for children, that's the foundation on which haiti's future will be built. so while we respond urgently to emergencies, we need to continue to reinvest for the longer term. >> the video or pictures we're seeing from port-au-prince, the capital there, what is going on in the rural areas, lisa? >> the rural areas pose different challenges. in urban areas you have crowding and high potential of disease transmission from person to person quickly through waste and carrying of water and things like that as people are consuming it. in rural areas people are spread out so the challenges there are ensuring people have access to safe and clean water and access to health care when they need it. our understanding is that the government is engaging in a

large messaging campaign. the members of the humanitarian community are participating in this. we're sharing the same messages, drink clean water, eat cooked food, wash your hands after going to the bathroom and frequently during the day and seek help if you need it. >> lisa lawman is from save the children. thank you for taking some time out, lisa. >> my pleasure. thank you. well it's 7:20 right now. switching gears, brett favre has been relatively quiet about a scandalous investigation he's in the middle of. now the vikings quarterback is opening up. what he is saying about the voice mail that he's accused of leaving a female employee. and plus it's the end of an era.

making headlines this morning, new investments in the disappearance of northern illinois university student anton et keller. police have found human remains where she went missing 11 days ago. she was last seen october 14th when she was venturing into prairie park to get inspiration for an art project. an autopsy is being done to find out if the remains are hers. after weeks of avoiding the question. brett favre has apparently admitted to sending voice messages to a former new york jets employee. fox news is reporting that favre told an nfl official he did leave voice messages for

our very first facebook fan of the day is ann jeanette adams chastain. she said fox 5 morning news is like cream in her coffee. to be a fan, search fox 5 news and then post a comment under ann's photo and tune in tomorrow and find out if you have been picked. we thank you for watching. >> good morning to you. hopefully you have gotten your coffee yet today. >> that's cool. >> we can't be it. >> we can try. >> you can leave comments. >> that's what i'll do then. what a beautiful day here yesterday. temperatures in the 70s. here is your sunrise at 7:28 this morning. i think it was about a minute ago. you can see the sun there.

should be a decent day today. temperature wise back in the 70s but the clouds there off to east and we have plenty more clouds off to the west. so when all is said and done it will be mostly cloudy with the possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms. let's get started with a look at yesterday's high temperatures. what a gorgeous day. 73 degrees yesterday at reagan national. dulles is 75. bwi marshall is 75 degrees. i mention the temperatures because once again today -- here is the good news in the forecast, the next couple of days we'll keep temperatures in the 70s. pushing 80 around here by wednesday. but unfortunately more clouds in the forecast today as we have an increasing chance to see widely scattered showers during the course of the afternoon. let's see what we can find as far as the map goes. and temperatures across the region, and we are currently in the 60s. currently 63 degrees at reagan national. and 50s off to the north and we

have. that's the case for the next hour or two. and then we'll watch the temperatures quickly jump as our winds will be out of the south and the southwest over the next couple of hours. so we'll continue to monitor that. if we can go to hd radar, i want to show you the shower activity to the south and west. that's moving in here later today so the possibility of widely scattered showers and thunderstorms. back to our max system and if we can, let's tack a look at temperatures. 61 degrees at reagan national. 60 in quantico. 61 in fredericksberg. the 50s off to the north and west. 58 in hagerstown. and high temperature today in the low 70s. to 72 and 73 with scattered showers and thunderstorms. best time for showers is later in afternoon. that's a look at the forecast. our five-day forecast featuring temperatures in the upper 70s, near 80 by wednesday. let's get to traffic now and if

we could let's find julie wright. all right, tucker, on the roads this morning, lanes are open leaving college park toward 270. southbound along 29 leaving randolph and southbound leaving 650 new hampshire avenue, lanes open below speed traveling from white oak toward four corners. nothing stopped along your way. 270 clear south of 109 and slow at montrose toward the split. outer loop of the beltway checking for a crash near 210. traveling 395, we have delays that extend before the springfield interchange crossing over the bridge but nothing stopped along the way. that's a check of your fox 5 on- time traffic. checking out our top story this morning, the chandra levy murder trial begins today. what you are looking at is a live look from d.c. superior court in northwest where opening statements are set to get underway at 10:00 this

morning. ingmar guandique is charged with the sexual assault and murder of levy in 2001. former california congressman gary condit with whom levy was romantically linked believes he will be called to testify. paul wagner will follow this case from inside the courtroom and join us live coming up in about half an hour. the election day now one week from tomorrow and some incumbents in the tightest races of their careers. joining us, bob cusak from the hill. and the question is are people going to get out to the polls. and one recent study said the young vote may not be there as much as what we saw two years ago. the know the democrats are counting on that to hold on to the seats. >> the president wanted the young voters, the hispanic voters but they won't be out

there as much as in 2008. he knows that. but he needs enough of them out there so he can retain at least one chamber of congress and that will be tough. and the senate will be tough for republicans to grab but the house is looked to favor to win the house. >> and what happened if that plays out what, will we see for the next couple of years if you see republicans until the house and democrats if the senate. >> there are some things they could disagree on, like trade issues. but some of the republicans are tea party candidates and they are not chamber of commerce or business-friendly. and these guys may not go for a compromise with the president whether it be on trade or anything else. >> before we talk about congress in detail, let's look at one race, the maryland governor's race and we had both

candidates in here for a debate. we saw one report saying one thing and another report saying another thing. what do you think? >> if the wave is very big, bob ehrlich will win. >> let's talk about races involving congress and we'll throw a couple out there and you can fill me in with other ones you think are important. and let's talk about harry reid and what is happening in nevada? >> harry reids people are nervous. they could easily portray sharron angle as extreme. and they had a debate and reid did not do well and he has the own us -- the onus on him to

win that debate. and so some think there is a race between senator shoeman. >> and o'donnell is in line for a book deal, so what is happening there. >> the wave is going to have to be eform us for -- enormous for her to win. >> and what other states or races really jump out as critical. >> i think the big one is in california, senator barbara boxer. as election night goes on we could be looking at that race as deciding who will control the senate. carly fiorina has run a good campaign. and can republicans win in the blue state of california? that race is neck and neck. that will be a huge race. >> and would that depend on the governor's race as well and the

polling going on because you probably have more congressional seats up than anywhere else in the country. >> i think you'll see republicans win the senate or house but not both. >> and not business friendly when you mentioned the chamber giving it's backing. what might we see? the tea party candidates got a lot of attention a few months ago. and when it comes to election day a week from tomorrow, will we see the influence come through? >> i think we will. tea party candidates have knocked oven trenched republicans from the party but can they win november 2nd? they are not all going to win. but some people think the tea party will go away. there is no chance until after the 2012 election because the move will be strong and a lot

of them want to oust president obama. >> and how do we get the tea party involved in that? >> we have some people that want to compromise. when you had president clinton with a republican congress, they got things done. but will that happen now? i think that's unlikely. >> we'll see you again soon. as we count down the days to the november 2nd election, so remember you can get the polls and follow the races bob was talking about under the politics tab at myfoxdc.com. coming up next, we have seven games now on the book and the redskins have matched their win total from last season. it was an ugly one but a win is a win. we'll break down the monday morning quarterback when we

come back. and it's the season for colds and flus. we'll be joined -- joined by a doctor to discuss the symptoms of the difference between a cold and the flew-- and the flu. that is up next on fox 5 morning news. woman 5 sync: and he worked for another bank that collapsed. man 4: costing tax payers 17 million. anncr: tell bob ehrlich big banks don't need help. middle class marylanders do.

this one is not going to go down as the winner of a beauty pageant. not the prettiest football game plays. but the redskins walk out of chicago with a win yesterday thanks to a record-tieing performance by deangelo hall. four -- count them -- four interceptions. congrats to hall. this is monday morning quarterback. that's a whole season for some guys. >> his season high total of six. and it is the prettiest game to deangelo hall. this is one in the record books. and i'm sure when he's 61 years old he'll tell about look at this day back in chicago. and we talked about it a couple

of hours ago. four in the second half. this was not a blowout or just throw it up there and go get them hail marys. >> and nobody wanted to score. because every time they got near the goal line -- >> it was the worst offensive second half or two teams ever. seven points scored here by deangelo hall, the 94-yarder he takes back. and he's the guy that said put the x on my chest. i'm the guy. i'm the guy saying i want to cover the best receiver. you could say whatever you want about me, i'm going to talk. i'm going to have an issue with jim haslett and let him know in the meeting. >> here is what i have to say -- about that. and i love deangelo hall. after he said put your best guy on me and he got burned. so spread him out over a couple of games. don't take them all in one game. >> they needed all four yesterday or they wouldn't have won. >> they would have.

>> and i do like the moxie that he shows. and you can say we don't like them running their yap. i have no problem when you back tup. and he'll get burned but your best guys will get burned because they are covering the best receiver. after the game we want to hear from shanahan and deangelo hall on yesterday's win. >> we're make something strides, that's for sure. like we said, we want to get better each week and we've been talking about the defense and a lot of question marks from different people and all of a sudden you see five turnovers and a number of sacks and guys playing extremely well. >> we've on the verge of being a great team. we still have a lot of things to work on, almost every week. but we'll keep working. coach shanahan demands the best out of all of us.

>> and i heard you snicker when deangelo hall was speaking. and when you get six turnovers you have a chance to be a good defensive team. they have not been very good defensive for this year but yesterday they stood up. and we'll talk more about this next hour but the defense has been responsible for all four wins. so tucker barnes, take that. >> and at 4-3, they're on the verge of being a good team. >> no, he said a great team. >> take it game by gay. >> but play. >> our coverage continues on air and online on the sports tab on myfoxdc.com. the only reason dave ross can say that is if dallas wins, the redskins are in first place. >> one week only. it's a special. >> why did you snicker? because i'm going to say this.

after i saw highlights, i thought this is like a good- looking team. >> you think so? >> yes. >> so why did you snicker? >> they're better but i have not seen the great yet. >> hater in the house. >> and the emcee is open to anyone and why not the redskins. let's get to the temperatures. i think the redskins will do just fine next week. i'm predicting a victory. 61 degrees at reagan national. 73 in cape hatteras. 63 in charlotte. cincinnati 64 degrees. and clouds on the increase today. i'm doing weather, here, guys. off to the west, showers pushing into eastern kentucky and west virginia. we have a severe thunderstorm watch across portions of tennessee. and looking out for the possibility of thunderstorms here today. and some of the shower activity in eastern kentucky will get in here and still mild today with

temperatures in the mid-70s but not quite as nice as yesterday as we'll have clouds and showers around. tomorrow 74 degrees. near 80 on wednesday and then a cooldown toward the end of the week. highs by friday only about 60 degrees, i would like to move some of that wednesday heat into sunday night for the kiddies. >> i would like to do that. >> right now it looks sunny and cool. >> you should see the outfits the girls have. it's hard to trick or treat and have one shoulder out when it's 50 degrees and your sick. >> you just gave me an idea for a costume. on the roads you'll find lanes open making the commute at the wilson bridge on the inner loop. outer loop at 210 crash on the left side of the road. southbound 270 out of rockville, below speed continuing to work south of 370

the third annual euro kids festival going on now through november 10th. >> holly is featuring some of the participating performers that are from european nations. holly, good morning. >> reporter: i have jet lag already. you know where i've been this morning. i arrived in france here at the french embassy, then i went to bulgaria, i went to cypress and i just got back from the netherlands and now i'm in belgium and i am there with the help of eustis holly from belgium. but here is the whole reason. because right now belgium has the presidency of the european union so you are the host of this kids euro festival? >> yes. we are hosting with the french embassy and we got the great honor to help them and so we

provided an image to figures that are famous and we gave a reception on the 14th of october and we brought a great performance. >> reporter: and so tell me how this performance works. this is only the third one. >> this is only the third year we're doing it, it's children's performances, 2-12 and we go to libraries, hospitals, performance theaters. and it's specifically for children and the performance you are about to watch is for children 2-4 years old. >> reporter: and the best ages are 2-12. why do you think something like this is needed? >> because i think that culture is looked at as something for grown ups. like right now we're going to listen to batch and that's for mature people and i think we

become i'm steve chenevey. >> and i'm allison seymour. and we have a look at our forecast. gorgeous yesterday. more clouds in the forecast today but we'll keep the mild temperatures around not only today but for much of the week. we'll be threatening the 80- degree mark around here on wednesday. we can't complain about the rain on the way. it will be scattered. much of the day should be clear. maybe a thunderstorm later on today. so bring along an umbrella just in case in the afternoon hours, we have a good chance to see afternoon showers. temperatures are mild. 61 at reagan national. a lot of 60s out there. 62 in fredericksberg. cooler to the north and west. winchester and hagerstown currently 58 degrees. our afternoon high temperatures again today will once again move into the 70s and average high in the 60s. mostly cloudy and mild.

dorm room. today the students will face a judge. sarah simmons has more on our top story. >> reporter: the drug they are talking about is called dmt. a lot of people may not have heard of it. but the dea said its something they have dealt with in the past. that's what the students are accused of manufacturing in a dorm room here at georgetown university. the ones taken into custody are charles smith and ron romero, and john baron. this all happened early saturday morning. the campus police got notified about a strange smell coming from inside of a dorm room. police got there and found hot plates, several chemicals and even an air ventilation system inside of a dorm room on the 9th floor of harvin hall. the dea thought a meth lab was

in operation there and that's why students were evacuated but tests revealed it was d mt. students we have talked with are pretty surprised to hear something like this happening here. >> i lived in that dorm freshman year and something like this never happened back then. i ran to any appreciate nan r.a. yesterday and he was saying how easy he had it with us. >> no one on campus has really heard of dmt and when we thought it was a meth lab it was crazy to think that freshman were doing this and within two months of arriving at georgetown. >> reporter: and now investigators say this drug is something smoked but could also be ingested. as far as how long this lab may have been operating, they are still not quite sure yet. and it is still unclear if students were buying it here at georgetown university.

we're live at the university, sarah simmons, back to you. >> thank you very much. also in court today, ingmar guandique, accused of killing chandra levy. today the trial gets underway. paul wagner joins us in studio with more on what we can expect. paul, good morning. >> good morning, allison. >> you are intimately connected with this story. >> very much so. >> and now nine years later we see this case going to trial. what happens today? >> today we'll see the opening statement and we'll see what the defense is going to be. there's been hints of what the defense is going to be but we'll see the prosecution lay out their case and then the defense will lake out their case and the prosecution will put their witnesses on the stand and see where they are going with this. this is a circumstantial case. jurors these days love to see hard evident and see the dna and the fingerprints and the fibers and anything else you

can give to them. there is none of that here. this is entirely circumstantial. and perhaps the most damming testimony is what is called a prior bad act and that's the two attacks in rock creek park around the time that chandra disappeared. they're similar to the way chandra was killed and the prosecution will put on some of that evidence and that is what is said to hurt guandique. >> and what is he charged with? >> he's charged with felony murder. he has six charges and the counts of felony murder and some sex charges as well. i listened in all last week to the judge, the defense and the prosecution asking jurors questions to see if they were predisposed about illegal

aliens and gang members. they were very clear that they.with ad to know whether or not they had any bad feelings towards illegal immigrants or gang members and this jury panel that has come together have said they are people that are not biased against illegals and that they would listen to current and former gang members taking the stand under oath and testifying. main question the judge wanted to know is can you be open minded and impartial or are you not going to believe a gang member automatically. the panel said they will be open-minded. >> gary condit perhaps coming back to washington. it's hard not to link this with the media circus when the romantic relationship was learned. what will this be like or what can we hear from him. >> the prosecution said he

could testify. we've heard he is expected to testify. we'll have to see. but this is going to be important for the prosecution to try and down play a defense move to try and point to gary condit as the person who actually did it. and so the prosecution may have to put the stand and talk about where he was that day, what his alibi was and anybody else they can bring out from him to say that he had nothing to do with it. but he's never really admitted openly that he had an affair with chandra. it's all come out through leaks and what not. and even if that interview that he did with connie chung, he never admitted he had an affair with her. so it's very interesting and if he takes the stand and asked under oath what his relationship was from her, we may learn some new things we didn't know about her before. >> thanks so much. and paul will be blogging from

the courthouse throughout the trial. go to myfoxdc.com and click on news. we're just eight days away from the mid-term elections and there is a lot of debate over the balance of the house and the senate. so candidates are pulling out big names to drum up support. >> reporter: heavy hitters in the world of politics, stumping for candidates across the country. >> so what we're basically saying is give us two more years. he gave them eight years to dig the hole. give us half that time, four years, to get us out of it. >> reporter: with a little more than a week before the voters head to the polls, the president and first lady are rallying on both coasts. and michelle bachman said she's the number one target for democrats. >> i think the biggest impact is the failure of the obama-

pelosi agenda. >> reporter: and some are trying to distance themselves from president obama. >> president obama is not on the ballot in virginia. it is joe mansion. we've been successful. they don't want to talk about the record what's so ever. they want to talk about guilt through association. >> political analysts are divided but most agree democrats will see the control of at least one. >> i think at this point most analysts, most nonpartisan analysts think the house will go republican. if you have a con census in this quarreling field, that is a con census. and nearly half of the races, 18, are republican. >> republicans need to win ten seats to take over the senate and 39 seats to win the house.

degrees right now at reagan national. humidity 83%. winds out of the south at 12 miles per hour. that's good news this time of year because that tells us the warmer air continues to in fro southwest. we're looking at our satellite radar this morning. clouds on the increase. there will be a few peeks of a period of sunshine. and then showers behind it and thunderstorms getting in here later today. so not a perfect day but the good news is temperatures will stay on the mild side for the next couple of days. our highs this afternoon, going with 73 degrees with the possibility of some afternoon showers and thunderstorms. the best chance in time for the evening commute here, 4:00 or 5:00 this afternoon and tomorrow mostly cloudy. and then 80 on wednesday. and then a cooldown for the end of the week. and that's a look at the forecast. and now to on-time traffic with julie wright. we're talking about the clara barton parkway at the

and this is the time when flu season starts. and there have been sporadic cases of flu reported in the washington, d.c. area. the most important difference is that flu can be a very severe illness. so it's an acute onset, fever, severe body aches, the chills, severe chest pain, cough, and so on. and the most important thing is a sudden onseventy. once you have onseventy -- sudden onset. and the cold is a much milder illness. it is occasion -- occasionally people do experience low-grade fevers and experience coughs, typically producetive of some fluids. sneezing and runny nose. the onset is gradual and not as acute as the actual influenza.

>> a lot of times when we get the feeling, they say i feel like i'm coming down with something. that's more of a cold than the flu. >> that's exactly right. and if you're unsure it's a good idea to consult with your health care provider. the reason is if it's truly the flu, the earlier it's caused, the earlier one can institute treatment. >> let's talk about ways to avoid -- either one. and does it work the same or are there different things that set them off? >> both are triggered by viruses. so the common things that one can do are to wash your hands and avoid close contact with people who are sick. if you are sick with either a flu or a cold, try to stay home. actually influenza can be contagious up to one day prior of onset and five days after

onset of symptoms. and the most important thing is to get vaccinated against influenza. vaccines are widely available at this point and we recommend that everybody -- the centers for disease control recommends everyone 6 months of age and older should get vaccined. >> and last year we talked about h1n1 in addition to the flu, and this year the vaccine is combined. >> that is right. the vaccine is combined, it's a triple vaccine and it has the h1n1, influenza b. as well as another strain of influenza strain a. >> and we talked about the flu hits you more at once. any particular symptoms that might -- you might notice at first where you might think maybe i should get this checked

out earlier than if i just had a cold? >> yes. typically the fever, although not everyone with flu does develop a fever, and the severe body aches and headaches. those are more typical of influenza. to contact for anti- -- for anti-bacterial treatment. there is some such as tamiflu that could be effective at making the illness duration shorter and preventing further health care complications from influenza. >> and not to mention the contagiousness for someone else. >> absolutely. >> hopefully you won't see as many patients this year. >> get your flu shot.

a jet quarterback. the nfl is investigating but has not commented. >> he is not happy. not a good offensive effort. for the redskins it's all about the defense. dave ross with us once again as we break down. dave ross known for his in- depth analysis when it comes to breaking down the games and he put his math genius to work to find out the keys to the game. >> it took me the last hour. since i saw you last. here is what we came up. are you ready for this? in the four wins, 7 points against dallas, 12 against the eagles, 13 against the packers, and 7 against the bears. but the other 7 was done van mcnabb giving up 7. so that's 39 points and four wins which is an average of less than 10 points per game. >> mathematical genius. >> i did get a solid c. in math. and now 30 points against

houston for a loss. 27 against indy. and so what we're finding out by the numbers, the numbers don't lie. >> the average is -- >> 28, around 30. but the offense is playing like a flat line. they are not too up, not too down. a steady eddy. and if defense played well, they went. and guess who played well? yes, we know about deangelo hall. but it's albert haynesworth. we both said he wanted to see one sack. >> we did. >> and albert haynesworth got a huge play here. it was before the deangelo hall pick. this would have been 23-10 in the third quarter. >> what would you think if you saw him leaped over the pile with arms outstretched like that. >> he looked at cutler like he was a t bone steak. >> like the 72 ounces you have to finish. >> and get it down and he d. and that play right there

enabled deangelo hall to get the pick six which we'll show you. >> do you think this sets haynesworth up for a great finish to the season? you can feed off of this one? >> would you love to believe that. i don't know with this guy. >> and to take the heat off everything else. he went in and played well. leave him alone and let him play now. >> and after the game we asked him the trade rumors? did we make too much of it and here is what he had to say. >> in the summer i asked to be traded but once i got here and got a grip for the defense and a feel for the coaches i felt like i could still play and it was really just outside people saying things about trades and stuff. but it was never really anything in the locker room. sometimes us players joke about it but it's nothing serious as everybody made it out to be. >> so he said, steve, basically, look i was never going anywhere and i never really asked and other than before the season started, that
