. more criticism of metro tonight, because radios did not work and first responders were not told immediately passengers were stuck on smoke-filled trains. hello, everybody. i'm bruce johnson. this is a one-hour edition of wusa 9. take a look at this. metro, taking out a full page apology in the sunday washington post edition for how the transit agency handled the disaster at the la font station this week. an alexandria woman was killed, more than 80 passengers injured when smoke-filled trains and passengers were forced to wait for first responders to rescue them. more on metro's apology a bit later. but first, a new report tonight that further explains the long delays in getting help to scores of passengers trapped on the smoke-filled train in

the metro tunnel. dc's mayor is promising total transparency on the city's part. and stephanie ramirez has more. >> reporter: bruce, this is the 37-page report that gives a more detailed time line into what happened last monday. it also provides information of communication issues. communication issues that were reported days before the fatal tragedy. >> it's not surprising. >> reporter: while maybe not surprised, there are many concerns with this report, reported on past metro emergencies, now runs a fire and ems website, often working as a consultant. with this new report, he tells me his concerns are-- >> number one, that metro waited a number of minutes before they contacted dc 911. when they contacted them, they didn't have a lot of detailed information. the other thing in the report is that the dc 911 center

very quickly. it took them 6 minutes once they had a confirmed call at the station before they dispatched fire and ems. that's way too long. >> reporter: but one of the things he finds most interesting are these e-mails that show a radio communication issue was reported to the agency just four days before monday's fatal tragedy. the mayor would not give her own thoughts on the report, but says this. >> what my job is, is to find out what happened, to ensure that we have a top-down review from our end. we demand that metro does exactly the same thing from their end. >> reporter: after seeing the report like this just five days after this fatal tragedy is incredible, and tells me this is something you don't normally see in dc. stephanie ramirez, wusa 9news. dc firefighters are saying tonight the report released today confirms metro delayed in getting vital information to first responders. i talked with ed schmitt, president of the firefighters

union. >> you've heard we've been reporting all week that firefighter sources are telling us that the first dispatch said nothing about people trapped in the tunnel, smoke-filled train, that sort of thing. have you confirmed that? >> acco looks like it's confirmed that that information was left off on initial dispatch. they were the first to arrive in unit. they went down in there. there was smoke at the platform. they ran into metro transit officers and that's when they learned there was a train full of people in the tunnel. that lieutenant had to make a judgment call and it was the right call. great personal risk. it could very well be the power was up the whole time when they entered the tunnel, but it was the right thing to do. lives were on the line and they wanted to get there as fast as possible. >> you're saying the first responders entered the tunnel, not certain the power was off? >> they were relying on what information the transit officers were telling them. our radios were down. they couldn't communicate above, with the above-ground units because the repeater system in the tunnels weren't working. >> there's no communication? >> communications were dead. >> what does that mean? what did that do?

>> calls were delayed. you know, they started line of sight where they are sending runners back and forth. >> cell phones? >> cell phones, i mean, out of all of this we need to come up with a better plan b. >> this is scary. shouldn't we have fixed this quite sometime ago? we've had other accidents down under. >> we have. we regularly report problems in the system and we do inspections. and that repeater problem was actually reported prior to this incident, i believe four days prior according to the report. >> and metro's responsible for- - >> metro's today's report included transcripts of more than a dozen people who called 911. one of those callers talked to our surae chinn, who says the firefighters didn't arrive when they did, there would have been more fatalities. >> reporter: justin moreno is caller number 6 in the report. he was trapped in the back of the 6 car train. he says within minutes, they were all going to die.

>> reporter: justin moreno remembers a family with two small children in particular. >> one of the children said i want to take a nap. >> reporter: he says each time the operator tried to override the system and back up to the platform, the train instead kept going forward, deeper into the smoke. he says the train operator contacted central command, but was met with no urgency, indicated by a posting on youtube. >> they are holding the train on the 5 plaza. you need to get in contact with them to have them to move that train off the platform so i can get this train on the platform. that's what central is telling me. >> he just kept getting on that microphone and calling into central command. but central command kept saying we can't do anything, there's a train on the platform. >> reporter: that's when he decided to call 911, telling the operator it's going to be a

bad situation here very soon. in his mind, he was thinking the worst. >> i didn't want to say we're all going to die, because that would have alarmed, you know, everyone around. >> reporter: they were in that train suffocating for 30 minutes before the first firefighters arrived. he said he was determined not to die, thinking he had too much to live for those waiting at home, but he still let it cross his mind. >> we were, we were probably between 10 and 20 minutes of dying. >> reporter: help finally came. firefighters couldn't open the emergency doors, but then gained access through the passenger door. he still rides the train to work, but he can't bring himself to take the train home in the afternoon. he thinks about carol glover, who died, and the family with the two small children. >> felt bad for the family. no one had control in that situation, including metro. and that's what was sad. they had all of our lives in their hands and they didn't even have control of the

situation. >> reporter: justin moreno says when he saw those flashing lights bouncing in the dark from the firefighters, he knew that they were going to be okay. he never saw carol glover, the one fatality. he believes that she was in the front of the train. he, of course, was in the back, so he was already evacuated by that point. bruce? >> surae chinn, thanks for that information. what if monday's episode had been a terrorist attack? that's what one dc councilman, jack evans is asking tonight. he was just appointed by the council to the metro board last week. he says initial reports indicate training and perhaps funding are lacking. >> the results so far that we've seen of the accident indicate maybe we need more training. it seemed like a little chaotic situation when the firefighters arrived and nobody seemed to know what was going on. so that can be cured if you train repeatedly. and then infrastructure. is the system getting to a point where it's old and we are

having these accidents because the infrastructure isn't where it should be? that goes to the funding of metro. >> things like radios not working and first responders not able to communicate from below, up top, shouldn't that have been fixed a long time ago? >> absolutely should. that's the inexcusable part of this. if indeed, as it sounds like, our firefighters got into the-- >> the train operator not knowing exactly what to do and getting the people on the ground to safety, shouldn't that have been fixed? >> that goes with training. why don't they run these drills? i mean, we had this tragic accident several years ago. since then, have we, and this is one of the things i want to find out now that i'm on the board, have we been doing what we need to do? bruce, we are a prime area for a terrorist threat in washington, dc in the metropolitan region. given that to be the case, every one of our public facilities should be training all the time for, in the event that we have something like that happening. >> lot of people thought that's what this was, a terrorist

attack. >> it could very well have been. again, doesn't look like the response was where we want it to be. >> are you going to press metro immediately, in terms of what people do in case of an emergency, how to get off, how to open the door? >> all of that. you have to really start on monday -- on tuesday, and reexamine the training that is given to our employees, to metro operators, and to the, to our constituents who ride the system. >> metro officials should be briefing the dc council members on tuesday. the metro board meets on thursday of next week. now, back to that letter. in its letter to riders that appears in sunday's washington post, metro says, in part, we apologize to all metro riders and particularly to the family of carol glover and those injured or impacted by the events of monday afternoon. you have our absolute commitment that we will provide a full accounting of what happened on that day, from the cause of the smoke to our emergency response. even before the national transportation safety board

completes its investigation, we will take immediate action to address any interim recommendations. we've got more reaction from metro passengers to today's developments. hope you enjoyed today's weather. rain is on the way. let's go to first alert meteorologist erica grow. >> hi, bruce. the good news is that the rain will mostly be in the morning. by afternoon, things will be improving out here. you can see we're bone-dry at the moment. here comes the rain, not a lot of rain here, but this will make its way towards us, drawing moismg in from the south, for the i-95 corridor. points east of that, you're more likely to get steady or even heavy rainfall. current temperatures, cold enough to support ice, but guess what, by the time the rain gets here, temperatures will actually be on the rise.

you can see the 24-hour temperature change and those orange and red shadings on the map further to the west of the divide, an indication of temperatures that have risen 10, 15 degrees since where they were yesterday at this time. but back here in the immediate metro area, temperatures are actually a little bit cooler this time yesterday. so temperatures aren't going to move very much at all overnight tonight. we're going to see an increase in cloud cover tonight as that cold front makes its way toward us and the rain showers arriving along the i-95 corridor by dawn. 28 to 35 degrees. those winds out of the south at 10 miles per hour, helping to keep temperatures from falling, but then we do have more cold weather ahead in the first alert seven-day forecast. make sure you stick around for more details on that. bruce, back to you. >> thanks, erica. we've got new information tonight about the late marion barry's son running for the dc council seat. >> and military troops hit the streets overseas

. we've got breaking news tonight. wusa 9news has learned that christopher barry plans to turn himself in to authorities. sources tell us barry and his attorney will surrender to police on tuesday. this is on charges stemming from an episode this week, tuesday at a pnc bank in chinatown. according to the police report, the dc ward 8 council candidate and son of the late marion barry argued with the teller at that bank in northwest. the report says barry picked up a trash can and launched it into a bank surveillance

camera. barry has been in trouble with the law before. he pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana and pcp back in 2011. in 2013, he was charged with driving under the influence. it's unclear what charges barry is now facing from that bank incident. we've confirmed he's free tonight, ready to turn himself in to police on tuesday. . a police officer on duty is involved in an early-morning crash. he was driving westbound on central avenue with siren and flashing lights on when another car pulled into his path and crashed into the cruiser. both vehicles ended up in a drainage ditch. the officer and a young passenger in the other vehicle were both taken to the hospital. no words on any charges have been filed against that other driver. in downtown washington today, a sea of blue, as hundreds of law enforcement officers and supporters held a march and rally. they began with a moment of silence at the national law enforcement memorial to remember those who were injured

or killed on the job. the group then marched to the u.s. capitol, where police officers and their family members spoke about their commitment to serve the public. today's event was organized by three wives of dc and prince george's county police officers. overseas tonight, belgium is deploying troops to protect potential soft targets. the heavily armed troops are hitting the streets in several cities, after a series of raids on suspected terrorist locations. french, belgian and german police arrested more than two dozen suspects in antiterrorism raids just yesterday. security forces across europe are now trying to prevent more terror attacks. wendy gillette brings us the latest. >> reporter: heavily armed streets patrolled the streets of brussels saturday, protecting potential terrorist targets in the capital city. it's the first time in 30 years troops have been called up to reinforce police. the extra precautions come two days after police carried out raids against the suspected islamic terror cell that was

planning an attack on police in belgium. two suspects were killed and more than a dozen arrested. many of those arrested have fought alongside isis militants in syria. >> they don't feel to be part of the psyche of everybody else, and they try to take revenge. >> reporter: in western africa, several people were killed when a mob burned down a number of churches. it's the second day of deadly protests in the region against the newspaper charlie hebdo, when printed a cartoon image of the prophet mohammed on its front page this week. the paris newspaper's publication of other mohammed- inspired cartoons prompted last week's attack in which 12 people were shot and killed. as tensions escalate, police canceled the protests against radical islamists planned for sunday in paris. a decision upheld by a french court. wendy gillette, cbs news, new york. just ahead, will the rest of the weekend be a washout. erica has the full forecast, coming up. >> and coming up later, one of

. we were just talking and maybe you agree. it's cold, but thank god the sun was out. that was good. >> a little breezy from time to time, but not bad. still a nice day to get outside and get in a little bit of a jog. maybe you got outside for a little bit, too. >> no, i worked out inside. >> okay. >> you did what, 6, 7, 8 miles? 12 miles? i know you. >> not today. i did not do that much. but yes, it was a good day to get outdoors. tomorrow morning, it's going to be a little troublesome, but that's not a sign of the way the whole day goes. looking at the capitol dome,

still being renovated, refurbished, 35 degrees at reagan international airport, partly cloudy skies. winds are out of the south- southeast at 8 miles per hour. that wind is going to continue at about 5 to 10 miles per hour for the rest of the night. that's going to lock in temperatures in place. temperatures not falling very much, with the cloud cover moving in, rain moving in by dawn in portions of the beltway south and into southern maryland. that's the area also that has the heaviest rain likelihood. rain falling through the morning hours and drying on sunday afternoon. by the way, if you live in the i-81 corridor, you're not going to see much of anything in the way of rainfall. but you might see a couple wet snowflakes wrapping in on the back side of this storm system as it pulls away, colder drier air, descending in as well. 34 in frederick and leesburg. 33 in hagerstown. 30 in manassas. most of us are above the freezing mark at the moment. 35 right now in downtown

washington. on satellite and radar, not a lot of impressive energy with this system, as it makes had its approach from the great lakes. but it's going to hook up with some additional moisture that will approach from the gulf compost states. that's why we have a greater potential for rain here on 9 future cast. you can see the showers starting to make their approach by 5:30 in the morning, lightly raining in, fors of southern maryland. basically the same area where you got the snowfall earlier on in the work week. that's the area where you'll see pockets of heavier rainfall. oranges and yellows, an indication we could see rainfall rates in excess of a half inch per hour. so that would be a pretty decent rainfall for us. as you're stepping out the door for services or anything else you might want to do early on sunday morning, it will be raining up and down the i-95 corridor, both beltway and along 66 through fairfax county and 270 through montgomery county. by noon, we're already starting to dry things out. we will see a few of these wrap- around showers make their way toward us in the afternoon. here you go, 4:00 p.m., it's raining once again in the beltway. that will start to clear out

heading into the overnight hours. sunday night into monday morning, it's going to be breezy. the feels-like forecast shows that as well. tomorrow afternoon, not bad. it will feel like 42 in downtown washington and manassas. 41 in winchester in the afternoon. on monday morning, as the colder, drier air descends in and the breezes pick up, we'll see temperatures feeling like they are in the mid-20s for most of us. upper 20s downtown dc. if you have an early service event or you have a community event that you're doing on martin luther king day, you'll want to bundle up. tomorrow's weather is not an indication of what it's going to feel like first thing monday morning. tonight, we'll see the increase in cloud rain is possible very late tonight. we're talking 4:00 in the morning really for the earliest that we would see any of those rain showers. 28 to 35 overnight tonight. winds out of the south at 10 miles per hour. then sunday morning, temperatures in the 30s and 40s. some rain, a few more showers, especially as you head further east, where the heavier and steadier rainfall is going to be. winds out of the south at 5 to

10. then in the afternoon, a few wet snowflakes are possible. really what you should interpret this to show is a few areas of banding showers. we're not going to see a lot of rain in the afternoon, but we will see enough that it's not going to be the best afternoon to be outside. high temperatures, 45 to 50. any of those wet snowflakes that fall, they will melt right away. over the next three days, we're keeping the green weather alerts with us, because the rain threat tomorrow is not enough that you should have to cancel any outdoor plans in the afternoon, which is when most people have those outdoor plans anyway. then on monday, it will be partly cloudy and breezy. completely dry. high of 45 degrees. tuesday, there's potential for a few flurries or maybe a quick snow shower. wednesday, a little bit of a more potent pocket of energy passes by, with a chance for snow showers. in the first alert seven-day forecast, you see temperatures do fall back into the 30s unfortunately heading into next work week, looking like another cold snap in our forecast. it's january, though. >> you can't complain. >> who was that team on

national television tonight manhandling traditional power house? >> dismantled. dismantled michigan state. georgetown, having a big game today, too. if you're a local basketball fan-- >> and we are. >> yeah, you gotta love what you saw today. big win for the terps, big day in college park. terps shooting the ball well and they kept shooting it well and kept shooting it well. spartans didn't know what hit them. the green machine is run out of town by maryland. all melo trimble,

. well, for those looking to see if maryland was for real, and many were, i mean, for real- for real, today was the day when you put an entire season together, there are things you can hang your hat on, beating michigan state twice in one season is one of those things. i don't care how bad michigan state -- let's get to the

highlights of today's there's mark turgeon, under fire coming into the season, i would say. but he has responded. jake layman is hard to guard. this guy is 6' 9, lanky and long. he hit seven straight at one point. he had 21 points. i tell you what, the guy, the player of the day was melo trimble. breaking ankles at the end of the first half, pulling up for the jumper at the buzzer. then jared nickens in the second half, shot clock running down, tell you, they were killing michigan state. this one from deep? no way. way. trimble, 6-of-11 from downtown. he had 24. maryland rolling 75-59. >> he expects to play that way and you haven't. if you look at his numbers and compare to tries, tries was clearly better. today he had one of those games that he will be capable. melo will be mlo.

>> cool customer. i was at georgetown on thursday, talking about this upcoming game with the butler guys. cale hopkins told me you got to put your big boy pants on in the big east. he's right, because it's a brawl every night, or day, or afternoon. there is john thompson, iii. this one going down to the wire. 40 seconds to go. smith-rivera, i love this kid's game. elbow jumper. 57-56, georgetown. 15 seconds to go, roosevelt jones, me and mr. jones! he had 28. but that left time for isaac copeland at the buzzer. georgetown wins, 61-59. it's a big time win. he's a freshman! from the corner, georgetown winning it by two. virginia and boston college, there's mr. bennett. he's got himself a pretty good team, and this is going to the hole? no, but the follow, yes. virginia, isaiah wilkins doing

it there. and he was doing it again, anthony gill with the flush. this was a flush party. virginia rolling over boston college today, 66-51. virginia's still undefeated, by the way. >> what? >> yeah, they are, like, 20-0, something like that. trust me, they are undefeated. battle of georges, george washington taking on george mason, from the corner, joe mcdonald. you better believe it. the buzzer-beater. that made it 26-20 at the break. here comes george mason. the green machine. corey edwards making it 29-28. paul jorgensen made the three- pointer here, with the assist. george washington winning that one, 63-53. george washington winning that one this afternoon. battle between two ranked teams, west virginia at texas today. good win, good ball movement here and the flush by jonathan

holmes. he's got it. jonathan holmes with the flush. later, gary brown leading the way for the mountaineers, first half, hits the jumper. 9 points in the first half. texas up by double digits, as we go there. let's move on to the professional ranks. winners taking on the nets. it couldn't be any worse than last night. did you see that? if you're a good team, you don't show up and play like that. lost 102-82, one of the worst teams in basketball. he emptied the bench, really. nobody was playing well. afterwards, he said, you know what? i would play different people from other teams if i had a chance. this is what randy whitman said after the game. >> i don't believe in chocking one up. you got to come out each and every night. you got a desperate team, seven- game losing streak.

we're coming off an impressive win. but in order for us to take the next step, these are the games we got to win. >> that was paul pierce, but you get the point. they were not very happy with the way they played. >> words from a hall of famer. >> the guy knows what he's talking about, right? you got to show up and play every night. >> got to ask you about the terps. could they win the big 10? who is in their way? >> well, wisconsin is the team to beat in the big 10. but like the guys said on our show previous on game on, you would have to think they might be the second best team in the big 10. that's not something people would say going into the season. here's the thing. let's pump the brakes on this. the big 10 has those type of teams. indiana. minnesota. penn state. they are not whirl beaters, but they are tough to beat on the road on those tuesday and wednesday nights when their fans get into it and you haven't been on the road yet. not going to be easy for them to sustain, but they are playing well right now. you got to give them credit. defense, coach bennett, this is

what he preaches. they are a defensive team. and here's what they do. they don't have, they don't have one guy that's going to step out and get 30 points a game. they have a group, three or four or five guys, who can beat you every night, and they play boa constrictor type defense. tough to beat. >> let's get together tonight at 11:00 and come up with something. >> it's impossible. >> it's impossible. i challenge. challenge. coming up later, our social media friends are chiming in on the latest metro developments. we'll tell you what some of them are saying tonight. >> also, one metro survivor who recorded events on his own camera returns to l'enfant station at our request to talk

how can i avoid maintenance fees? why would you want to avoid them?

because i don't want to... you know what? i'm gonna bring my maintenance guy in here to tell you all about it. roddy! so, uh, without your fee your checking chamber can't run smoothly. every time you put money in it causes, uh...deposit friction. gotta get some fiscal lube on there. [ male announcer ] it's time to bank human again. [ defeated] okay. [ male announcer ] avoid monthly maintenance fees at td bank with a minimum checking balance of just $100. td bank. america's most convenient bank. . some of the victims of monday's metro smoke incident have already retained an attorney to represent them. albert ridge is one of those people. the 53-year-old rider was among

the passengers trapped in a metro car as it filled with smoke. he sent a text message to his mother and his two children, convinced that he wouldn't make it out alive. >> reporter: melbert ridge is still wearing his hospital wrist bracelet. >> he said the train won't move until the train that's already in the plaza gets out. >> reporter: ridge says several metro transit police were in his car, yelling into their radios. >> -- have them move that train off the platform-- >> constantly screaming at command, trying to turn to the fifth channel or this channel and nobody could even get that train out. >> what a crock. >> reporter: ridge says he sent what he thought was a final text. >> i told my mother that, that i loved being her son and i told my kids i loved being

their dad. >> melbert ridge's lawsuit against metro alleges negligent response to an emergent situation. his attorney handled two of the death cases that followed the 2009 fatal metro train cash. we've been getting social media reaction to the disaster report issued this morning by the dc government. here's what some of you had to say on facebook. angela copeland says the train operator was following instructions. the question should go to who was giving the train operator those instructions? anne wilcox tells us there are many issues, of interested in why passengers seemed unable to open the emergency doors from the inside. another passenger who ended up in the smoke-filled l'enfant station has also retained an attorney. curtis mosi tells us he called 911 from the platform, then walked up the escalator where he was met by emergency responders. mosi and three others were transported in the same ambulance to george washington

university hospital. he was released after nearly six hours treatment for smoke inhalation. curtis mosi of northwest dc recorded events on his own camera and he returned to the l'enfant station at our request to talk about his ordeal. >> first time back? >> yeah. >> reporter: on monday afternoon as the tunnel under l'enfant station was filling with smoke, curtis mosi was waiting to transfer from the yellow line to the green. >> lot of times you smell electricity burning or something minor. i thought it was nothing. >> reporter: there was smoke everywhere, yet no one seemed especially bothered, and no one from metro had sounded an alarm. >> first officer was saying the metro people there did not say anything, and there were a lot of people. i'm thinking everything is good. >> they were still coming into the station? >> still coming in. >> reporter: curtis took three clips of video on monday. in the second clip, you see the increased smoke. visibility outside the tunnel had grown worse. >> kept getting thicker, thicker, thicker.

>> reporter: and then panic from a lone metro employee who started barking orders to get out of the station. >> kept saying this could be a terror attack. >> you thought it was a terror attack? >> yes. any moment, i thought i would hear gunshots or a big boom. >> reporter: curtis made his way up the escalator to arriving firefighters, who then guided him to an ambulance. >> i mean, it was scary out here. i can imagine in that tunnel, something like that in the dark, smoke. >> reporter: we talked to a number of firefighters again today and the first responders tell us again that when they first arrived, that original dispatch said there was smoke in the tunnel, it said nothing about being people stuck on the metro train inside that tunnel. >> they are saying when they first arrived, metro and the dispatcher did not tell them there were people stuck on a train in the tunnel. >> a tragedy. they need to get it right. i mean, our lives were at stake. that's unacceptable. >> curtis mosi also told us when they arrived at gw

hospital, there were people representing law firms already there, waiting to take their names in case they wanted to file lawsuits against metro. curtis mosi says he will ride the subway system again. a memorial service for carol glover is now set for 10:00 a.m. monday at capitol hill baptist church in southeast washington. the 61-year-old mother and grandmother was the one fatality in monday's metro fire and smoke incident. the dc medical examiner's office ruled glover died of acute respiratory failure due to smoke exposure. glover was a federal contractor who was on her way home to alexandria when the metro train car began filling up with smoke. other passengers on that train tried cpr and firefighters eventually got to the smoke- filled train took over and carried glover to the streets, where she apparently died. rain tomorrow. erica, what about the mlk holiday outlook? >> well, we're going to be able to clear the rain out before any of those observances and any of those volunteer

activities begin. right now, we are bone-dry in the metro area. as i zoom out here on doppler 9000, putting this into motion, you see the approaching rainfall. it does not look impressive in the least. you can see the rain moving through central iowa. also notice that there isn't any white or any pink on the map. we don't have any wintry precipitation with this, even up into the northern great lakes, and portions of michigan where the rain is falling right now. temperatures are just kind of on the warm side throughout the area. now, with that rain that was approaching, you saw there on doppler 9000, that's not the only rain that's going to move through. we'll see some showers develop overnight tonight and they will move in as well. overnight tonight, temperatures not falling off very far from where they were from afternoon highs, 40 degrees, slightly below average for this time of year. also, overnight lows were right on target for where we should be this time of year. overnight tonight, as i mentioned before, temperatures not falling very much. increase in cloud cover, 28 to

35 degrees. the rain showers will arrive by dawn along the i-95 corridor. the rest of us won't see nearly as much rain and we'll take a look with 9 future cast, so you can see exactly when and where the rain is going to fall, coming up in the first alert seven-day forecast. still ahead, how stores could soon be giving customers a better shopping experience. >> also, new proposals aimed at protecting and noti

in the immediate metro area overnight tonight, which is great news with this rain making its way toward us. we don't have to worry about freezing rain. we don't have to worry about sleet, when we just have the temperatures remaining above the freezing mark at the surface. but heavier rain will be a part of this system for folks who live along the i-95 corridor and points east of that. you'll see that in a minute on 9 future cast. we'll dry out by sunday afternoon, but then as we head into the later afternoon and early evening hours and the back side of our storm system starts to sweep on through, we could see a few snowflakes with this system as well. right now, it is down to 30 in manassas and la la plata. 33 even in hagerstown. on satellite and radar, you can see nothing going on locally. that rain that's approaching from the south, not even showing up here on our satellite and radar imagery yet. it's going to kind of develop during the overnight hours and push toward us. on 9 future cast, here comes

that rain. notice the pink here in northern montgomery, northern portions of frederick county. temperatures will be very, very close to that freezing mark for a very brief amount of time, so there's the possibility of just the very slightest coating of ice before 8:00 in the morning, but if you're not heading out the door until after 8:00, there is zero danger of ice for you unless you live up toward the mason-dixon line. that heavier rain will be an issue for folks living down in southern maryland. that's going to continue until about noon. then the showers start to taper off and we'll see some clearing and drying in the afternoon on sunday, but the wrap-around moisture with this system could produce, as i mentioned before, couple flakes. maybe a quick flurry on tuesday, but monday is going to be breezy and dry. so we're going to keep that chilly weather in our forecast for most of the work week that's upcoming. temperatures aren't going to dip below freezing in the immediate beltway area overnight tonight. we'll dip down to 28 in the suburbs, 35 downtown.

increasing clouds and along with that increase in cloud cover, we're going to cap our temperatures, prevent them from falling overnight tonight. and then tomorrow morning, rain and some rain showers. but especially east of the beltway, we're going to see that greater chance where the rain showers and the pocket of heavier rain. then in the afternoon, 45 to 50. so if there are a couple snowflakes mixing in here, they are going to melt right away. we're not going to worry about any of this sticking around. that's not the case later on in the work week. we have a better potential of flakes and they actually could manifest into a quick dusting for us in parts of the area. green weather alerts for the next few days. partly cloudy and breezy on mlk day. temperatures in the mid-40s for highs on both monday and tuesday. then in the first alert seven- day forecast, that drier and colder air starts to descend on in and a few weak disturbances move through, giving us a chance for snow showers, especially on wednesday. that's the day that looks the most likely to pick up another one of those dusting events like we got this past work week. >> erica, thanks a lot.
