this issue. a report in "the washington post" claims they have consistently left platforms without full conscious aware this is of their action. those 47 times red light violations over the last two years, that's nearly twice a month. metro has taken steps to address the problem including installing systems which intervene if a train operator does this before they are supposed to. remember, those lights are important. they space out these trains in the system, they help avoid crashes. passengers as word spread about this today, they say that day dreaming leads them to be even more concerned if it's a factor in these violations and they say this is eye-opening news. does it concern you? >> yeah. makes me very frightened. >> first of all, i thought that's pretty

problems, folks. there might be a little bit of snow to watch this morning loop and you can see that it's showing you between 6:00 and 10:00 in the morning. mainly out to the west, a little bit of that could mix in. but i think it's going to be too warm for anything to stick so i do not expect any problems. that's the first storm we deal with tomorrow. it will produce about .5 inch of rain. a stronger storm is coming on wednesday and that one will be all rain and maybe even a little bit of thunder. as a matter of fact we're going to have to watch the forecast because it looks like we may get outlooked for the possibility of some strong storms. the marginal risk means in the green here from dc on south that there is a possibility of some stronger storms, some of which could have some damaging winds, a slight risk down to the south and east. and that will be a wind maker for us as well coming in on thursday. let's start with tomorrow's storm though. it will be the weaker of the two storms we see and it will likely produce somewhere between

to .5 inch of rain. it's we don't have any wind to deal with, it's 50 degrees, we are partly to mostly cloudy so you might have gotten a couple of good sunset pictures tonight but the rain will be moving in and we'll watch temperatures closely but i think most places will be above freezing but we've been warm today. 46 for winchester and not a bad night as the clouds begin to thicken ahead of our next system. as you can see it's not a huge storm. the one we see on wednesday will be bigger than that one but the clouds will be building in and a little bit later tonight things will get a little bit chillier as we watch our morning rain start to push on in. west of i-81 with just a little bit of mixing with the rain and no accumulation expected unless there's a very slushy coating on grass in a couple of spots far to the north and west. we will watch

hagerstown 34, martinsburg heading to 33 while the district is heading to about 40 degrees tonight. so definitely chilly. gorgeous sunrise today, maybe we don't see this kind of picture tomorrow morning. i do know the sun will come up at 6:49. the temperature will be around 40 degrees and we want to say thanks so much to chris for sending in that gorgeous sunrise picture. we love to see your pictures. tweet or facebook me with your pictures. a little bit cooler tomorrow, a wetter day, wetter in the morning than it will be in the afternoon. it may only top off at 39 for hagerstown our weak storm system will be pushing that rain in. we go to showers tomorrow afternoon and make way for the big boy, that's the storm on wednesday. but that one is going to stay inland. that means too warm for us to see any snow. and we're going to get warm on wednesday, up to the mid 50s as our storm track goes west of the mountain range by quite a distance and that

maybe some thunderstorms for us and significant snow. we're going to be watching that storm produce maybe 6 inches of snow for places like chicago, detroit, all the way up toward the canadian provinces but not in the cards for us this time. it will take a while to get out of the picture and create strong winds for us late wednesday into thursday. we could see some gusts over 30 miles per hour. that's what we're expecting on thursday, although i think for the most part thursday will be a dry day. last stop tovrnt we're going to wrap it up with your 7-day forecast and as mentioned we're going to see that rain and thunder. friday's temperature about 45 degrees. as we head to the weekend it looks like we can warm things up again. how about this sunday temperature of 54 degrees? that ought to be fantastic. we'll show you where temperatures may top out. it will be nice to get another warm weekend out of the deal and monday's temperature with a few showers possible about 55 degrees. your 7-day forecast is looking good. we start out on the chillry

we deal with two storms and the possibility again of some strong thunderstorms in the wednesday time-frame that lead us into big winds on thursday. but last week at one point it looked like both storms could produce a little bit of snow so you see why it's important to wait this will we get closer. because that's a big change. some people were very disappointed it's not going to be snow. >> who was that? >> mike thomas. >> what about in the mountains? >> the mountains will get a small accumulation of slushy snow. i would describe it as a coating on grass, maybe. and i don't even think they see much on wednesday. the model implied there would be a lot. >> for skiers, i see where you're going. not so great this round. >> that's good news though. a little bit of rain is just fine. >> getting closer. >> after weeks of rehabilitation, 20 geese are flying free once again tonight. the birds were rescued from

oil spill in the potomac earlier this month. they were released back to the wild today. the tri-state bird rescue rehabbed the birds. it still has more geese that will released once they are ready. >> let's head over to tony and shawn. >> hey there. >> for years we've heard that a glass of red wine is good for your health. it turns out that he is anot the only alcohol with heart-healthy benefits. coming up at 6:00, researchers reveal which drinks could actually do a body good. >> we are going to help you stick to your new year's resolution to slim down and eat healthy. we will share the three worst times of day to eat snack food. >> also at 6:00, he was black mailed into revealing his hiv status, but charlie sheen's diagnosis has had a huge impact nationwide. we'll explain at 6:00.

>> shawn and tony, you have nothing to worry about unless rain frightens you. and sometimes little bits of water can be frightening. we do have two systems we're going to be watching. a bit of a soggy mid week. the wednesday storm may have a little bit of attitude with it but we are going to have a storm moving in here tomorrow and it will be the weaker of the two storms that we deal with. tonight we just have the clouds around but if you watch very closely down in the southwest corner there right behind the fox 5 you begin to see a couple of showers showing up and that is the leading edge of the rain that will be in here by sunrise tomorrow. so we will watch that system get closer. it might possibly have a little bit of capability of mixing in a little bit of snow far north and west. we think that will be a low impact. it will not be able to accumulate because road temperatures as well as the grass will be too warm. no snow for the district, a little bit of
