the navy and air force are major capital end item incensive. and so when you think about reversibility, one needs to think about what programs do you have in training that really serve the role of modernization or recapitalization? i think you'll find in this program and certainly outlined in the defense strategic guidance, commitment to those programs that will allow us to expand if necessary on an established program, that would compensate for the unexpected. and i think it's certainly true with the tanker. it is true with the bomber f-35 space programs similarly. okay? yes, sir? right here. >> general, what process would the air force determine they could establish six squad reasons or 10 or 12 and which squadrons they are based? >> the basic approach is -- there was an analytical approach associated with what is known in the jargon is case three scenario. it's one of the baseline scenarios that department uses to conduct analysis and so on. that assessment based on the new strategy, not the qdr but the new defense strategic guidance and thi

air quality is then rated on a scale. anything over 100 triggers a spare the air alert. that's happened 14 times this season. 14 days you couldn't burn. we found the air quality unhealthy on four of those days. >> it appears that the district is issuing false alarms. >> when we call an alert and we come in under the health standard, that is a victory. that is fantastic. >> reporter: frustrating for those who avoid sparking a fire based on what the air district predicts. predictions that are often wrong. >> i think they need to get their act together from what you were telling me. if it wasn't a spare the air day and they issued it anyway, what's their -- explain that. >> i think that is t should be accurate, especially if they're going to ticket people and there's fines for it, yeah, i think that should be set as a standard. >> and the air district issues warnings at 2:00 p.m. for the following day. it says it has sacrificed accuracy in order to give residents more notice for days burning wood will be illegal. as we mentioned, there are a lot of variables that go into th

arctic blast of air is coming down from the north.he lake-effect snow machine has been turned on high. we're cooling things off for our friends in the southeast, which has had a mild period as of late. the northern windchills are in northern minnesota and the dakotas. we had a big windstorm over the weekend. we started off with gusty winds on saturday and over by the rockies and into the central plains. yesterday, all through the great lakes. but now that that storm is gone and the pressure gradient is all set up, the door is open for that cold blast of air. and the waters are still relatively warm for this time of year over the great lakes. we've had a mild december out there. now, with that cold air going over the warm water of the great lakes, the snow machine is on. we had a lot of snow from erie to cleveland. buffalo, you're going to get heavy snow as we go throughout the day today. also, now we're getting the snow coming off of lake ontario. some of those areas could get the 2 to 3 inches. grand rap i didn't knidrapids, around a

another spare the air day has been declared. residents can't burn wood or other solid fuels indoors or out. mother nature is responsible for a lot of bad air but we did our share. >> last year we only had four winter spare the air alerts we already had 12 by january 2nd. so it is a lot primarily due to weather conditions and people woodburning. >> hot air acts as a lid and keeps smoke close to the ground. air quality officials say what we need is rain. mostly a good gust of wind to clear the stagnant air probably prefer the rain to the wind. >> a little conflicted, yesterday we were enjoying the warm weather, at the same time you are hoping for rain. >> we are, we have been and we've again getting teased with the sprinkles. >> that's what we are getting this morning again that's why it is another spare the air the 12th as the nice lady said, seven verified so far. we started off yesterday, record high temperatures and poor air quality gives you an idea of how stagnant our air mass is worst in santa clara valley and north bay tod

that's the cold air streaming on in here. the warm air ahead of this front. here comes the cold and not just the cold but the wends tomorrow could be gusting upwards of 40 miles per hour, combine that with the cold and you get wind chills in the upper 20s pretty much all day long. what about our chances for snow? future weather shows not a whole lot going on but watch what happens around 4:00. that cold air comes in, we see shower activity but a lot of us could see snow on the back side, including parts of montgomery county, loudoun county, parts of west virginia. i don't anticipate much in terms of accumulation but it will be cold enough for slick spots tomorrow morning in those areas. just watch out tomorrow morning in the higher elevations. tomorrow the precipitation is out of here, though, it's the cold air that will be here. tomorrow 31 to 34 degrees. tomorrow afternoon it's going to be feel about 30 degrees colder than it was today with wind chills in the upper 20s all day long with those winds guesting to 40 miles an hour. the next couple of days, just

we have cold air to the north. mild air to the south. the mix is giving this sleet, the freezing rain and the snow. take a look at your watches and warnings and advisory for this day. this is in affect until 1:00, a winter weather advisory until 1 time for all of the areas in gray. a winter storm warning from washington county to the west. there is snow accumulation there, but we have 1 to 3 inches across most of the area, shy of the eastern shore, the temperatures are driving what you are seeing. it is a crust, a frozen crust on the roads right now. many of the roads have been addressed by the road crews now, but 29 degrees in central maryland around the beltway. most of the areas are well below freezing and will be that way for the next couple of hours. again, out in the areas from washington county to hagerstown, we're seeing more snow accumulation. the problem right now is that the freezing rain is really the issue. with the milder air up, up in the upper levels of the atmosphere it is cold. the milder air is kind of mixing in. so, w
