good morning, allyson. >> good morning. yeah.ait until saturday night to feel the impacts of lower humidity. by sunday everyone is going to enjoy a picture perfect day. this morning it's still humid, there's some fog out there, patchy fog, not too dense as of now. aisle akeep my eye on it for you, though. on doppler a round of showers, it's light and it's not going to last as long as what it did yesterday. so anywhere west of 95 we're dealing with those showers, as you head out betwn 9:00, this is underdoing it. expect those showers to be right on top of the beltway. so if you're biking to work or doing that morning jog, your morning will be impacted with some of those showers. now, we dry out for a lot of the day. now, this is not until 8:30, hopefully at the nats game, they wait until the rain actually arrives to delay the game. the showers will arrive later on tonight. a lot of them will be off to the north and through maryland and they'll start to fizzle out off to the south of d.c. for tomorrow, saturday, saturday is going t

i don't think you've given props like that before. >> allyson does not give out compliments either. one. >> downdraft. downdraft. >> it was a downdraft, and that was the correct term, so i was very usually i have to kind of like -- >> i learned something. >> you're correcting us most of the time. >> you guys are always about 90% correct. >> so we're just like you, 90% correct. >> oh >> there's some shade coming? [ laughter ] >> all right, i'll take it, jan, that's fine. okay. let's talk about today. it's going to be very warm and humid, hot and humid, dangerously hot and humid by 12:00 today into the low 90s, feeling about 100 by your lunch hour. probably not the day where you want to be outside. by 12:00 clouds move on in. we'll have a few storms today, still very few and far between. as we head through tonight, if you have evening plans, it will still be very steamy out there. temperatures will be about 90 degrees all evening long. this is saturday, 3:30, a couple of showers out here. there will be a few showers out at the beaches as well. still a great beach weekend ahead. saturd

allyson now a nurse in the neo natal intensive unit at yale university children's hospital. she is contributing in a big way to our state and to the health care system and yet she is living in fear of this legislation being passed. she took some of her vacation to come down and share the story with us. i am with senator colins. i think the republicans should scrap this garbage piece of legislation. and i hope they understand our offer is sincere. it is not political. that democrats do want to sit down with republicans and try to provide some reasonable fix to what ails our health care system. i will end with this thought. it doesn't have to be like this. health care does not have to be a political football that is tossed from one side to the other every ten years. that is what has been happening here for my entire political life time. i was elected to congress in 2006 in part because of the poplar frustration with the way in which republicans pass modernization act which included the new prescription drug benefits that the democrats saw and sold as a give away. democrats use

meteorologist allyson rae is tracking all of this in the forecast right now. >> has it been unbearablethe past couple of days or what. today i don't mind the humidity. i stepped outside and i we >> it's nasty. >> yeah, it's nasty out there. today that's it. we get a better weekend. it comes with some showers and thunderstorms this afternoon, which some of them could be severe. we're going to be tracking that. the weekend, make some plans to be outside. tomorrow is going to be so comfortable, especially compared to what we're dealing with right now. there's a live look at our michael & son camera. it is muggy out there. you see the sunshine, it comes out and feels pretty uncomfortable. then the clouds move on in. this is all setting us up for stronger storms. it's already 90 degrees. what i want to point out to you is this dew point. 78, are you kidding me? that is so high. this is the highest it's been all week long. today is kind of the worst before it gets better. even though we're only headed to the low 90s, we're only going to add a few more degrees. i've been tracking these shower

here's allyson. >> it's going to feel at least 100 degrees today.hose morning clouds kept our temperatures behind schedule. then when the sun came out, the temperatures started to soar. today we are going to see some clouds to start as well, even a few rain chances. i still think we'll have a chance to reach into the mid- 90s this afternoon. it's 79 degrees, feels muggy yet again. temperatures around the region, 73 for frederick, 72 for culpeper. these are not thunderstorms, just a few showers for 81, but once they cross over the mountains they're going to start to fall apart. a couple of showers this morning and again this afternoon, very similar to what we had yesterday. with this setup you can't rule out strong to severe thunderstorms. highs today, low to mid-90s. winds out of warming wind for us. temperatures will start to increase pretty nicely. 93 for leesburg, 95 for washington. how does that compare when you factor in the humidity, we'll get you those numbers coming up. >> pretty quiet so far. we do have some construction if you're heading o

right now let's talk some temps with meteorologist allyson rae.starting to heat up once again. >> this is going to be a hot, hot week. yesterday was one of our cooler days of the week if you can believe that. we are going to have another surge of humidity and heat through the rest of the weekend. i think it peaks over the weekend. hopefully your ac is up and running. 78 degrees right now. it's humid and it's really not so bad compared to what it's become. just kind of keep that in mind. 70 for frederick right now, 60s as you head to martinsburg and winchester. i'm going to keep my eye on any fog developing, but i'm not seeing any right now. that's good for your morning commute. highs today back to the low 90s. only a few degree average. 91 for manassas, 91 for frederick and then let's antarctic in the humidity. it will feel about 96 for your lunch hour. as we head through the afternoon it will approach 100 degrees. most places will stay below that 100 tree heat index threshold. rain showers, we'll have some scattered showers and thunderstorms toda

. >>> thanks allyson. police are collecting clues all over the city right now after an extremely violent weekend in d. c. in about 24 hours there were 6 shootings, all in different parts of the city. when the gunfire stopped two people were dead, six others injured and now the chief of police is speaking out. evan koslof has more. >> in a word, chief peter newsham called the shootings senseless. he said he was disheartened by all the violence and this really was all over the city with two in northwest, three in northeast, and one in southeast. here's a breakdown of where it all happened. >> the violence was all over the city and not the first incident was at9:40 saturday night at the 2600 block of 15th street northwest. two were wounded by gunfire. the next shooting brings us to southeast to the 3500 block of minnesota avenue. one person was wounded in the shooting. then just a few hours later there was another shooting right around 1 a.m. police believe a man was shot at the 1500 block of 45th street nort

neurologist allyson rae is tracking the storm's every move . >>> it will impact our weekend, but it will impact your drive home. today is a mess with the morning commute very wet and now we see water rising. there are some low-lying roads and we are seeing a lot of closures with water's -- water seeping over. of you know the road that always floods near your home, if you are south and west of d.c. through fairfax, prince william and stafford, charles and st. mary and calvert county, you may have water on the road. there's a flash flood watch with rain headed our way and the water is rising in streams and creeks. we will watch r a flood warning for parts of fairfax and prince william and a flash flood warning for parts of charles and into the st. mary, as well. even if it is not rising in your area, water is rising and more rain is heading your way. we are seeing trees falling over and that will be the case this evening, as well. the ground is very saturated and it is very easy for those trees to topple over. the purple colors, 2-3 inches and in calvert county, 5 inches of rain. the rain

. >> no matter what you tell me, allyson, it's still friday.tion, one area to note, route 2:14, central avenue at church road. a left lane is closed. not significant delays, but that is one of the higher areas, watch out for that construction. otherwise it's pretty much your normal areas of construction. we did have an accident on the outer loop of the beltway by river road. it does look like that has cleared. i have a traffic lane camera in this area. i'm not seeing hardly any cars and no backups to talk about at all. we also had an accident on bw parkway. it looks like that accident has cleared and your drive time heading southbound from route 100 to the beltway, a 16 minute drive. >>> bastille day in france will take on a different tone and meaning as the country remembers the 86 people killed one year ago today. a terrorist drove a truck through a crowded area killing those pedestrians in nice. that will include a military parade. >>> the organizers of the women's march last january have planned another protest for today and tomorrow. this

if you were with allyson you saw the d.c. south and east and everybody west is under the heat advisory except for the mountains. the criteria west of the blue ridge is a little bit lower. we have to get 105 east of the blue ridge and 100 west. regardless, it will be a hot afternoon and that goes until 7:00 with heat indices between 100 west and 105-109 in the immediate area. storms are not likely. some storms toward indianapolis but nothing really to show you accept the heat and plenty of it. a good day to be inside and catch a movie or go to the beach. it was beautiful at the beach with the onshore breeze. some of the upper '80s like lovettsville and warrenton, 86 with 92 and in annapolis and north beach, mid-80s. that is close to the water temps with heat index values in the lower one hundredths. it feels like 103. futurecast, not much to show except the temperatures. did you see the isolated storm here and there? a very isolated storm and warm and muggy. at 10:00, upper 80s and overnight in the 70s to about 80 for the low.

. >> allyson rae is tracking the heavy rain on live first alert doppler. >> yeah, we are going to see a very wet friday evening, but we're still going to see showers tonight as well. we are going to have isolated thunderstorms move on through the district by about 7:00, even into 8:00 at night. these are headed into loudoun county and they're slow movers, but they have gusty winds associated with them. headed to middleburg at 6:44. now tomorrow flash flood watch is in place for the entire region through saturday afternoon. that's how much rain we could see within a short amount of time. one to even three inches across the region. now saturday is still in question. it's either going to be dry or still just soaking wet. coming up a little bit later we'll go through the futurecast hour by rain by saturday night and how it could or may not move out on saturday. >> all right, thank you. >>> training camp around the mfl is underway. in richmond the burgundy and gold are back in familiar territory. >> this is their fifth camp in the virginia state capital. >> reporter: we are talking about t

. >>> one woman hopefully she'll get us through it all allyson rae.t bet is to stay indoors today. >> that's the best especially 6:tween the hours of 12 and to 8:00 tonight for the metro spots. this is the day where it's going to be the hottest and most humid. yesterday if you thought it was uncomfortable today we are going to bump it up a notch and then relief into the weekend. so things to look out for if you are going to be outside just double up, triple up on some water intake. heavy sweating could be a sign of heat exhaustion. of course you are going to be sweating a lot but if you start to feel nauseous and like you want to vomit you need to find air conditioning right away and body temperatures over 103 is going to be a sign of a heatstroke. also again the nausea, the head aches. if you are confused and you stand up and you see black or red spots, i've been there. pretty dangerous. find air conditioning right away, get some ice on your forehead. those are things to watch out for. especially if you start sweating and then you

what, five more days, allyson?ave another monday. >> >> see wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday -- yeah, six days left. it's going to be pretty uncomfortable until next tuesday. we have a cold front headed our way. there is end in sight, it's just not in the near future. 96 today. to compare, yesterday we were at 92. so headed to 96 today . it will feel 100 if not warmer than that. it's very humid. we are not going to get a break in the humidity as we head into the weekend either. we had a couple of storms yesterday, brief storms, some of them strong. the strong ones were more towards the baltimore region. today we'll see a few more. most areas will be dry but storms are going to be possible coming to be few and far between for the next few days. the rain chances increase a little bit over the weekend. 97 for saturday, by sunday we are at 99. ugh. that's not even a record. the record is well into the 100s. on the 7-day we'll show you when >> mike brought up dogs with that heavy coat. >> he's probably not enjoying

we're going to start with allyson rae and the forecast. >> good morning.y where it's hard to go to work after how nice it was yeda weekend or start to the weekend, today is going to be just as nice. 58 for german town damascus at 58. parts of clinton 59 and leesburg 61. a little bit of patchy fog out there. this is very isolated for frederick and warrenton. as we head through the afternoon, sunshine holds. take a look at these temperatures with a nice breeze out of the northeast keeping our humidity in check. highs today a little warmer than yesterday. yesterday when the winds calmed down, we were into the low 80s, that's it. today we're headed to the upper 80s. a little warmer but more typical for this time of the year. >>> i put up a couple of different maps. we have some flooding issues and then we have a utility problem on east capital street by southern avenue. you see these delays in both directions on east capital street. this sounds like there's utility work going on and that there's some kind of police activity too. we'll tr those delays let up. a

. >> allyson rae here to tell us about the forecast. apparently rain a little later tomorrow and saturday is a big question mark? >> saturday is a big question mark. right now rain definitely on friday night into early saturday morning. how fast the system gets away from our region is really going to determine how pleasant your saturday is. i have plans to be outside and to head out and go tubing or so, but i'm thinking i'm going to hold off and see how fast. >> only so many saturdays in summer left. >> regardless of what happens and how fast the rain gets out of here, prepare for a cooler weekend. temperatures will be well below average by about 10 degrees. when you step outside you can feel the humidity. it is coming back and it looks kind of nice with all that humidity. it's 85 right now and so humid that it feels like 93. that humidity will stay with us overnight. so for tonight we're not rain free tonight. we still have an isolated shower and thunderstorm to go through. if you're traveling farther to the south that's when you'll ru
