[ cheers and applause ] >> situation in charlottesville taking center stage at last night's teen choice awards. we'll have more on zendaya's message to the fans. >> and later, a big break for the nationals after bryce harper dodges a bullet. we'll have more on this condition. plus the team's newest pitcher uva alumni speaking out about the violence in charlottesville. good day at 9a starts now. ♪ good day d.c. it's 9:01 on this monday, augush along allison seymour and wisdom martin. holly has the morning off. steve is live in charlottesville where that suspect is to make hid first court appearance in about an hour. we'll check in with steve in just a moment. first, though, let's get right to the very latest from central virginia

we are learning more about the suspect and his possible neyo nazi sim pa these. learning more bout victim in the crash 32-year-old heather heyer. also still more questions than answers after that helicopter crash that killed two virginia state troopers. meanwhile, there's also a lot of questions about president trump's reaction to the clashes which has been met with part pi toy san backlash for not being tough enough on the hate groups responsible for the violence. melanie alnwick will have more on that part of the story in just a moment. but first let's turn things over to instead of scenery live in charlottesville this morning. good morning to you, steve. >> reporter: good morning, wisdom. you talked about the victim in this case heather heyer the 32-year-old woman who died after a car rolled down a street into the number of the counter protesters that happened right here where i'm standing the memorial behind me continues to grow flu out the day yesterday. it's been pretty quite so far this morning. last night they had a vigil that was in this area an lot of people came he

light candles, et cetera to honor her life and those who were injured a lot of those injured are still not recovered as you might imagine after being struck by that vehicle. just erie when you talk to people this morning who were here, who heard that car come down the street, bottom out because it's a very hilly area here. before it struck the protesters and one gentleman i just had chance to talk to said when that vehicle backed up and you've probably seen that video that high speed backing back up the hill at that point some people feared that that person may drive back again that was just getting ready to drive down into that crowd once again. so a lot of fear when that was happening on saturday night. but this morning on this monday morning, charlottesville regrouping. businesses are back open again. what had been a very quite weekend as far as folks staying inside locked their doors not the case. you see people on their morning runs early this morning. people walking to work early this morning. i had chance to talk to a couple of people long-time charlottesville residents about and what it's like for charlottesville getting back to work and moving forward. >> things seemed to be fairly normal.

everything calm and peaceful as it always is this time of the morning. i'm just hoping things can settle down a little bit and people can somehow figure out a way to get through this without the violence and the hatefulness and all of that. >> i'm not sure what to do to take the next step. i'm worried that there's going to be moral lease across the nation, possibly even moral lease here. there's an injunction against removing the statue. so i don't really feel safe while the statue is still here. >> reporter: that woman lo long-term charlottesville resident is not a fan statue. i understand from historical point of view perspective there are both sides here. but then she said after what happened over the weekend, she's like i really would lik to see it gone at this point. the gentleman i was just talking about who was here when the car crashed down the street he literally came down here a few minutes ago. his shirt was tied to this sign end came down to untie

piece sign on it he wanted that piece sign to be part of the memorial to heather ton those other victims who were injured when that car cam came crashing down the street on saturday. so that's what's happening right now as far as the vigils that were held over the weekend of course the big question now, what happens in court in little bit. hearing this could happen any time in the next hour district court a short distance away. the big question, though, guys, is whether or not that suspect who was driving that vehicle will actually appear in court as in physical in the courtroom or if this will be a video link in the courtroom. that we're still waiting to find out. >> as we wait, steve, i'm curious, is there still a strong police preps? i understand the national guard was down there at some point and police were in full gear regalia this past weekend. is there still a police presence there? >> reporter: there was yesterday, maureen, and i think a lot of that when i talked to a number of people this morning basically had the same line of thinking, as you saw the video of the organizer of the unite the right rally trying to hold that press conferenc

protesters kind of took over the microphone and saw him chased through the burbs, back around the city hall area with a police escort. once that happened, from what most people have been telling me this morning, once that happened, the remaining white nationalist protester who's were here seemed to leave and it seemed to be a sense of calm that fell over the city after that point. i've talked to number of people here throughout the weekend. they said after that happened they really didn't see more heavily armed police presence last night. didn't see any of the protesters as well. so it seems like that's where seemed to turn a little bit and become a peaceful city which is what we're seeing this morning. >> i was going to ask about that man his name is jason kessler who from what i see he lives in charlottesville and has said that they will be back and also in d.c. today. after he was sort of shouted down and escorted into city hall and all of that, what happened? has he been seen yet, steve? i know you're sort of where the vigil s but what have you h

>> reporter: not publicly. that's for sure. you're right. he's from -- lives in the charlottesville area. attend uva which of course is what most people know charlottesville for. but, yes, lower profile since then now online i haven't been blog online hasn't been updated- for a month. so i'm not quite sure how often he's been going to that. but as far as people saying that they have seen him or anybody else who was organizers of what happened on saturday, that's been a pretty profile since yesterday afternoon. >> steve chenevey live for us in charlottesville. checking in with you throughout the morning.& thank you for those updates. let's move on and stelle staying on charlottesville, al. >> of course it was not just charlottesville but rallies against hate were held in cities from coast to coast on yesterday. some a little more intense, intense than others. demonstrators in seattle shouting let us march and spraying silly string at police who were in riot gear. >> in new york, loud protests held outside trump tower to demonstrate against what many consider a response from the president that did not go far

groups and white supremacist that is marred in charlottesville on saturday. president also feeling the heat from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. fox5's melanie alnwick is live outside the white house this morning with the details. mel? >> reporter: good morning gu guys. white house national security adviser yesterday did call the riot and attacks terrorism but his boss president trump here in the white house really has not gone that far. we are expecting him to arrive here this morning but as you mentioned, the fact that he said that he condemned the violence and bigotry on many sides, that is what really drew criticism from all sides of the political spectrum and even from some of this former supporters. now, sunday the white house was in cleanup mode a item to go brief up the president's remarks written statement says the president condemns all forms of violence and quote of course that includes white vest mists, kkk, neyo nazi and all extremist groups. vice-presidenten

columbia beginning an international trip on sunday night. he spoke about the hate filled rally in charlottesville. >> these dangerous fringe groups have no place in american public life and in the american debate and we condemn in the strongest possible terms. >> reporter: meanwhile there's pressure coming from democrats and republicans for the president to say something to today. to publicly come out and condemn these hate groups. early this morning, president trump tweeted that he was coming back to washington this morning saying much worked to focus on trade and military with his trademark hash tag maga make american great again. no mention of anything having to do with charlottesville. i will say, also, foaled that up way couple of different tweets including criticizing ceo of merck pharmaceuticals who was a member of the president's manufacturing council kenneth fraser resigned. he said over the fact that president tru

enough denounce what was going on in charlottesville and those hate groups saying, as a matter of personal conscience i feel responsibility to take a stand against intolerance and extremism but again president trump just taking a swipe at fraser there for his resignation from the president's council. so no public event that is we know of today from president trump here at the white house. again, he's expected back here this morning and plans to go back to new york tonight. live in washington, oil melanie alnwick fox5 local news. >> melanie alnwick reporting. thank you melanie. 9:00 zen at the time still no word what caused that deadly helicopter crash saturday that killed two virginia state troopers. now the chopper crashed into a wooded area shortly after the governor declared a state of emergency. police identified them as cullen and pilot burke mm bates of quinton virginia. cullen 23 year veteran of the force. bates a 13 year veteran and he would have turned 41 yea

today. both men were married each leaves behind two children. we'll have more on the situation in charlottesville coming up. first though we want to get update on the weather. for that we turn it he over to tucker barnes. tuck, good morning. >> good morning allison. yeah. what a beautiful day we had yesterday. daytime highs in the 80s and not a lot of humidity. changes in the form of clouds and more humidity today. the clouds have been rolling in here early this morning. mostly cloudy this afternoon. all right. current numbers 77 in washington. winds are calm. the heat index the humidity 79 degrees, and the dew point temperatures are creeping up. so again you'll feel that humidity out there as well. the cloud cover this afternoon you can see all the clouds moving in and the green on your maps, rain showers back into eastern kentucky and west virginia and you know what, we could see a stray shower around here this afternoon best chance is going to be in the mountains out to the west. so if you're along 81, hagerstown, down towards front royal you might end counter a few showers and again i can't rule out the possibility we get a stray shower around here this afternoon. 84 your

morning. >> good to see you. let's -- first of all give me your reaction to what happened down in charlottesville when you first initially heard about what was going on down there. >> i mean i wasn't surprised. anyone whose been following the reaction to obama's presidency and the organizing around his presidency anyone who of course has been following the surfacing of those groups as a result of trump's rise many of the people who have been following these white supremacists groups including myself weren't surprised. you know, i was -- i was actually also not surprised that there was resistance to those groups. >> right. >> when -- you mentioned president trump. when off response like he had which was a very, f you want to call eight response, a very minimal response, and then a man who normally tweets about everything, he goes silent and just ignores this and goes into another direction, how m

that do you think fuels this kind of hatred and this kind of violence in this country right now? >> well, i mean, there are all sorts of reports in which some of these white vest mists marching in charlottesville were chanting hail trump. they view trump as their defender. they view trump as their defender in the white house, and so for him not to sort of stand against them very strongly in the way he stood against other people he considered to be his opponents certainly i think continues to energize them. >> when you talk about, you know, whether racism still exists a lot of people talking about racism still exists i for one don't believe it ever went away, when people are talking about oh, my gosh they're surprised by this again you said you weren't surprised by this because racism has been there. it just continues to pop up and rears its ugly head every now and again on a scale like this. >> precise

history of racist ideas. that comes up to this days. i wanted to show the ways in these ideas racism as morphed. it's changed in ways that people have been able to sort of understand. but i think this type of racism that we witnessed in charlottesville should be very easily for people to understand. >> right. not only is it racism but the violence that followed it with the suspect driving his car through a crowd of protesters. i mean that's -- that's on another level. >> it is. but we have to understand the ideology of these groups. they view the white race as under attack. they imagine that new policies are creating a genocide, you know, among white people. these concepts night in the face of facts. they imagine that obama's presidency was harmful to white people. that nights in the face of fa facts. they imagine that trump's pod presidency will be helpful for white people. they fly in the face of facts

they view themselves as defenders thieves people even though the very people that they're opposeing are helping white people and the people they're champ championing are hg white people. >> how do you move forward after something like this happens? i mean there's going to be discussions there's going to be town halls about this but really how do you move forward when something tragic like this happens and you know that there's a current out there of us versus them mentality right now when you talking about some racist people who just don't like minority ross are in thinking gots going on any minority whether it's legit or not? how do you move forward? what do you do to get past something like this? >> i think what is most tragic about what happened in charlottesville is that these people view themselves as being represented in the highest levels of the power in the united states. and so i think for us, for those who are opposing these people we can't just oppose these people. we have to oppose the very forces of power that they represent. so i think, you know, the resistance

only be energized by what happened in charlottesville. resistance against racism and bigotry of all kinds and i think that's what we have to focus on. >> doctor, thank you very much for your time. >> you're welcome. >> we appreciate you coming in and talking with us this morning. >> you're welcome. >> all right. allison and maureen back over to you. >> wisdom, thank you very much. 9:20. the stars at the teen choice awards send message about the hate on display in charlottesville the. little later guy lambert will join us live with all the highlights. >> first erin what are you working on. >> the north korea nuclear standoff could come to a head this week. we'll tell you why, plus the hbo hackers strike again leaking some of the networks most popular upcoming comedies and later an epic ending to the pga championship. we'll have look at all the highlights when we check what else is making headlines next. ♪

president obama years ago but we see it so stark today. let me begin with the president and how,, what he said about this incident. do you think he went far enough? >> he's been so clear. so many times about what terrorism is. this was his opportunity to say that the kkk are terrorists, too. that neonatzis are terrorists, too, that terrorism happens here and we need to fight it here and he stopped short of that. in fact trump has been so, um, vague that david duke believes that donald trump stands with him. >> right. >> tis was his time to stand up, and to be clear that donald trump, n david duke does not reflect the values of donald trump but you know what, he's left a lot of folks confused it's not just david duke. it's our kids and that's what i worry about. our kids are getting the wrong message from the president. the president needs to be very clear in those times. >> we've seen other leaders come out and very strongly diss a vo what happened in charlot charlottesville, and at least wondering could this a

point now for president trump you see people who support hummer happens his agenda with tax reform et cetera now pulling back saying, you know, we can't take the same, this is the tipping point and we're no longer going to be in support of this president? >> i would hope so. what we've seen as folks who absolutely support his agenda at least being willing to break with him and say, no, this is actually domestic terrorism, and david duke does not speak for the gop. we've also seen folks in his own party condemn trump and say trump needs to go much further. push him. we have not seen our governor here actually push trump. we haven't seen hogan speak up about trump's failure to act. and that worries me because unless he's hearing it loudly from all of the leaders in his party donald trump will not change and our kids will keep getting the wrong message. >> speaking of governor hogan. you're vying for the gubernatorial seat on the dem democratic site. he's not

strongly about the statue. >> worse. >> we have this confederate statues in maryland and larry hogan call it political correctness run a muck. what do you make of that. >> hogan should do what mitch land drew has done and come forward and say, talk about why these statues were put in place. these statues were put in place as part of a campaign of intimidation against black people and our allies and racial justice. and they absolutely send the wrong message. so does the false equivalency of saying, chief justice taney whose statue adjacent to the state capital who said that the black man had no rights of the white man was bound to respect he's the author of the dread to the decision. equivalent to thurgood marshall. that may make sense in larry hogan's mind but i don't think it makes sense in moved married maryland errs minds. not to mention the fact that taney's on the actualap

grounds adjacent to the capitol. you walk outed side door you'll see him. chief justice marshall is across the street in a park. even to i whiff late the two men sends the wrong message to our children. >> a lot of people are saying this is history. that should not be ignored. tearing it down is tearing down piece of history that good or bad we need to know about this. >> they did not put up taney, you know, when he was with us. it wasn't like he was, you know, there working to put up a statue. they put up the statues later. all of these confederate statues and the statues of franklin notorious racist like chief justice taney were put up later to intimidate. when something like that has been done the only way to make it right is to actually remove it. >> you're calling for this to today. >> absolutely. >> absolutelily. there should be no space for gee justice taney on the capitol grounds. when your child or my child goes to visit the state capitol and walk out the side door, the door you walk outing to downtown and she see the face of a man who said

what signal does that stepped about the future of our state? these statues were not there to define the past. these statue there is put to define the future. that's why there's no place for them. >> argument certainly continues. i know there are people who argue on either side. but you are calling for it to. today. governor hogan doesn't think it's a real issue. let's see how this plays out. thank you for joining us and your insight not what's happening in maryland but in charlottesville as well. thank you. >> ben jealous this morning. i'll send it back to you guys on the couch. >> thank you very much. let's talk about weather, shall we. >> let's let tucker barnes do it. >> tuck, good morning. >> he's the professional after all. >> that's right. i like to think so. 77 in washington. here the deal with today. got more in the way of cloudiness and more humidity. you'll notice the humidity creeping up over the course of the day today. with daytime highs in the low to mid 80s not bad overnight most of the region getting back into the 60s hanging on to the 60s, 69 del dulles. 68 in frederick this morning. 73 in leonardtown.

let's take a quick look at satellite/radar. cloud cover not too far away. so mostly cloudy skies this afternoon and the shower activity not too far away either. back into west virginia and eastern kentucky and the thinking is that some of this will get into some of our western suburbs. so if you're a viewer out to the west particularly in the mountains, places like winchester and front royal, martinsburg up towards hagerstown you've got the best chance of a few light showers this afternoon. and it it's certainly a possibility some of these could creep east and have a stray shower around here later today. just keep that in in mine. not wash out but a few showers around later today. all right. the culprit it's the frontal system that actually brought us the nice conditions yesterday. it's hung up down in the carolinas. and we're watching a little piece of energy along it and some shower activity that's kind of combining with winds here out of the east with an area of high pressure off to our north and east. so that's the reason for the cloud cover increase in moisture around here later today. low 80s for daytime highs. all right. tropics gert now our latest tropical storm 45 miles an hour winds going to scoot between bermuda and eastern seaboard. will not make

great news. it will kind of be scooted out to sea here. we are concerned about increased surf and rip tides along the eastern seaboard so if you'll be down the lower eastern shore hitting one of the beeps over the east coast the next couple of days be on the look out for that. forecast category one hurricane. again it will be push out to sea here over the next couple of days. 84 this afternoon stray shower. no need to cancel any oud outdoor plans later this afternoon or tonight although clouds will hang tough later today. we'll do it again tomorrow. plenty humidity by this afternoon and tomorrow. 90's are back around 90 wednesday thursday and friday with a chance of thunderstorm. best chance really will be friday with a cold front. which will bring us a little bit of improve many in the form of humidity and cooler temperatures for next weekend. wisdom, that's the latest on weather. i'll toss it back to you. >> 9:37 is the time. how about a little sports. good day sports right now. nats played a long game last night. 11 innings. and it was in the second game that was most exciting. washington put up in the seventh inning until they were up in t

dough val tide things up this game heading into extra inking. eleventh inning same score basis loaded. harry kendrick slams a pitch for the walk off grand slam. ninety-ninth career homerun first career grand slam. nats celebrate. six-two is the score. day of rest today. then it's two-game home series against the angels beginning tomorrow night. you know you're doing right when you get the gatorade splashed all over you. we can buy breathe a sigh of relief by the way the nats avoided a worse case si is nair yo with bryce harper after his knee buckle on this play. buckled backwards slipping on wet base during saturday's game. mri's showed no structural damage. he had a bad bruise. he's on the ten day disable l list. that's good news. no structural damage. meanwhile bryce harper's age

to take steps to ensure that wet slick bases aren't a safety hazard for the players. scott boris said in the nba when a player hits the floor and there's perspiration on the floor, they clean it up immediately so the surface isn't slick. in baseball, we have no one cleaning the bags between innings during inn clem weather. so that's an issue for him. and his client. he's saying that could lead to serious injuries. >> it makes sense. >> it makes sense but as i've said baseball likes to stick with old rules. they don't like to move forward. >> right. >> at all. they stay with, park as do other people and matters as well. >> how about that? >> thank you. you okay? you want to talk more about it. >> i'm good. >> okay. for now. well, fox made a lot of us feel old last with teen choice awards. we're talking about it any way. coming up next guy lambert is with us to recap some of the big winners and explaining who they are and so you can look cool in front of your

it primaries later this month. this morning we're learning more about it from the felicia story straight from the star and also the director joining us live natia little mama kirkland and director and actress tasha smith. good morning and welcome. >> good morning. >> thank you. >> good morning. >> had you not seen that clip? >> i hadn't seen that clip and i love the music. >> me either. >> you hadn't seen it either. >> love it. >> let me start with you natia. when you see that, that's completely not the person i see today. so what does that transformation like to such a troubled young lady? >> oh, man. it's about acting. it's about being -- being a walking testament of ministry, you know. and when we act, we get to play these characters and then we get to help people through acting with their real lives, and in this case it's a very special case because it's based on true story. >> right. >> about a real young lady who started out at 16 and, you know, she wanted the

and by the age of 19, her world came crashing down. >> it is an incredible story. again, tasha a true story watch attracted you to the role. we normally see you on the other side of the lense but you're directing this. >> yes. i fell in love witness story of felicia blakely my heart went out to her. úi had a lot of compassion and empathy for her. >> she killed three people. >> yeah, she did. but also a lot of times like people can be quick to judge what she did and what she did was wrong and she is serving time in jail in prison for the rest of her life. but when you look at how she got there, that's what i was attracted to, i feel like there's so many young women that are vulnerable and get caught up and get mixed up in the streets i always feel like, listen, she was so vulnerable and so much in need of love that she ended up giving her life over to this man, and now she's paying for it. but i think that this could be a story that so many people could learn from. especially families. if you don't love your chi

>> yes. >> because if she would have had the love she needed from home, she probably wouldn't have ended up in the strip club, with this guy, that manipulated her and pretty much conned her into committing these murders and h hitting these licks. which are robberies, right? >> um-hmm. >> so i feel like we need to educate our children how terrible the streets are. so that they can be careful so that those streets don't love our kids more than we do. >> so well said. what attracted you to this role when you saw this felicia blakely store? what attracted to you it? >> oh, well in the i was very fearful to take on because like you said it was so different from my character in more ways than one. for one the fact that i had to be portray a stripper. two the fact she's so vulnerable and with those two alone i was very fearful and also there were several men that, you know, she had to be interactive with script and tasha helped me to get out and be brave and get into character and

story. the truth about the story and so when i knew that i can be a vessel that could help young women after i played the role and really showed them, look, i understand, i have become this person, you know, i had to be emotionally abused and, you know, physically abused all thee things onset in character, but just that sacrifice alone of becoming all the things that she was and that young women all across the world have to deal with, it shows them when i go to speak to them about character like this one that i do understand because i had to -- i had to live it. >> had to transform. what was the hardest part for you. >> oh, man, there was this one scene in the movie where my co-star lance gross he actually plucks me and it's not in the script. but, um, tasha the evil director she whispered in his year. look, pluck her. >> that real reaction. >> yeah. >> honestly i had seen a bunch of do you mean reece and i s

women that were just traumatizing and so plucking was one of them. i mean, how much more disrespectful could you be but when you see her reaction in character, she loved this man so much that it was okay. when you think about women that are dealing with domestic violence, they begin thinking it's their fault and that they have to constantly work to get the love of a man so that they won't get abused because in their minds they think it's their fault or something that they may have done wrong or something that they have to fix, and so i felt like in order for people to really see, believe and be affected, it needed to be real. it needed to be honest i it needed to be gro grounded and ae some of the things that happen in abusive domestic violence relationships. >> you're dealing with an all star cast for your first step out into directing. what for you was the most challenging part? >> and your greatest triumph much. >> listen making a movie you know

the incident with white supremists in charlottesville this weekend. the president tweeting about other matters however this morning from tax reform to the resignation of co. merck from his ceo council. >> but we want to get back to charlottesville. what's happening down there. the first court appearance for james alec fields the man who allegedly hit and killed a woman in charlottesville during that white supremacy counter protest just ended. steve joins us now live with the latest from what happened inside the courthouse. steve, bring us up to speed. >> reporter: maureen, first of all we thought this might be a bond hearing. they didn't get even that get that far. they set the date for the bond hearing to be set. so hers what's going to happen right now for james fields he did not appear in person as we expected inside the courtroom it was done through video link. what they did, they assigned him a court appointed attorney. that attorney wasn't even in the courtroom. so they have to get all that information together and what they did was, they said we're going to have what is called a controlled date and we're going to set that up

on the morning of august 25th. now, at that point, on aug august 25th, then they can set the bond hearing and preliminary hearing if the attorney wants he can ask for a bond hearing to be held ahead of that august 25th date. but at this point it looks like that would be essentially the bond hearing on august 25th and then at that hearing they can go ahead and set the time and date for a preliminary hearing. fields still being held on second degree murder and other charges we heard from the prosecutor' office they said that those charges could change as they continue this investigation and this investigation moves forward. so that's the latest as far as fields he's going to be held in custody at least until august 25th when a bond hearing is set. and then we'll find out more about what might keep him behind bars in the meantime as soon as this was over and media started coming back out district court on to the screams little bit of a scrum with someone who identified himself as a white nationalist who was here. he likes charlottesville he was trying to explain the nationalist point of view and essentially blaming counter protesters for what happened and the rea

between the two groups as you can imagine there was heavy media presence around there and then a few of those counter protesters gathered around him they started yelling back and forth until police and sheriffs deputies were able to separate them and they he is cored that man down the hill behind me and into one of those buildings. so not to escalate that situation any more. that's quite honestly the only disturbance we've seen so far this entire morning. quiet honestly i think it's because there was knowledge that this was where basically i was the media in this city had gathered at this point. because of the court hearing. so that's the latest. fields will be held in custody august 25th at 11am we'll find out what bond might be set at. we'll find out when the preliminary hearing date will be and then at that point, we might find out more information about what police and investigators and prosecutors are thinking. that's the latest from charlottesville. back to the loft. >> thanks so much, steve for the very latest up to date. steve is court its reporting live from charlottesville today. we appreciate it turning to other news now, tom cruise hurt on the set of his new movie

clear spot. and even until the last 1% of the sun was uncovered, you can still see really well, and then it blinked out and it was surreal i kid you not that was a very long eclipse the one if 1998 it lasted over three minutes. and what you see is just darkness everywhere. it happens very suddenly. and the temperature drops. but then you gut get to see something no one seize unless they're a total solar eclipse the ring around the sun call the cory corona and it was a black hole in the sky with this white gas around it which the scientists really go to great lengths to see because that's the only time you see it during a total solar eclipse, and people -- people were freaking out, and even i was, too. i didn't expect to be screaming but i was like oh, my gosh! it's a mind blower. it's like -- you realize we would be nowhere without this sun and to see it blink out even for three minutes is thrilling and terrifying and jaw

that comes back everything is illuminated again. >> wow. it was really a mazing. i'm excited about this one all they i've got to tell you, guys, in the washington area, we aren't going to get the total solar eclipse i'm worried that people have an expectation that you're going to see it go dark locally. we're not. you have to get to the,, what they call path of totality which is, upping, south carolina, north carolina, nashville up to portland, oregon. and they're the ones who are going to see the total solar eclipse and it is worth the trip if you can make it. but locally you can still see it here. but what you're going to see is a totally different show. it will feel like there's cloud passing over the sun you might not even notice it but it you till need the eclipse glasses to look at them and seriously when i put these on i see absolutely nothing and that's how you know you've got good pair of eclipse glasses. >> okay. >> but you can see the sun and then you can see a very light shadow next monday at about 2:42 in the afternoon. light shadow covers 81% of

sun. but it's not the same as what i saw in 1998. >> wow we're zenning mike thomas down to get the show. fingers crossed for good weather. >> right. >> speaking of which tucker barnes joining us now. tucker did you have something you wanted to -- >> sue, you don't look one day older than did you 1997. >> i know, right. >> true story. >> you look the same. >> oh, my gosh. >> you real dollar. you look amaze. >> you're so sweet. i thank you for that. i really appreciate it. you probably noticed our sky guy greg was also in that and he was a big motivation behind me getting to it. he told me you're going to just -- this will change your life and it really does and i just checked my fox5 weather app for charleston i've got to tell you that's where we're sending mikey, and they do have a 50% of thunderstorms down there. so we got to keep our fingers crossed that at the time of the total solar eclipse he can see something because it is worth it. i know a lot of people are going to great lengths and expense to útry to get there. charleston is just absolutely going to be overrun. that's a fun place to see it. the last place to see it on the lower 48 and

reason why this is a big deal, guys. we haven't had a toll solar eclipse that's gone across the lower 48 since 1918. and then the next one will be in 2024 and it goes right that was my hometown of erie, pennsylvania. but that's in april and it's always cloudy. so i'm a little worried about that one, too. that's the farthest i've ever been worried about a future forecast. >> sue, where did you get that cool t-shirt and do they have it in small. ian a small one. >> do you like it. >> yes. this is enormous on me. i got this on the ms they were selling the total solar eclipse shirts back in the day. i recently went through my closet. my eclipse shirt is still there. i'll be wearing this a lot over the next we're or so. i'm going to try to watch it locally. i'll really excited about seeing it. >> we are too. >> again, you really -- you never want tox, there's a lot of mims about looking at total solar eclipse one when i was a kid back in the '60s and my mother put us to bed, pulled down the shades in the middle of the day absolutely do in the go anywhere near a window but it was confusion
