rising sun, elkton. and havre de grace, see something showers. right around salisbury and toward vienna. and on the wider scan, columbia seeing this. seeing a few sprinkles there. and also seeing some showers. this is going to be the case off and on throughout the evening. and we'll see a better chance of rain area wide. >> all right, tim. thank you. >>> let's check on the roads right now, with sharon gibala at wjz traffic control. >> hi, sally. good afternoon, everyone. plenty of accidents to talk about this afternoon on area roadways. fortunately, delays aren't too serious at this hour. the biggest one on the beltway, at york road, on the right shoulder. it was blocking lanes. then you're looking at a six- minute backup to perring parkway. watch for another wreck, 95 southbound. that's blocking the eastern avenue on-ramp. an overturned tractor-trailer, expected to be there through rush hour. no delays at this time. one accident aberdeen road, bel air road. and some include north charles at west lake, west lafayette at calhoun. one more in sever

and only three at elkton. i have a feeling the wind gauge is not working. 13 in oakland. we have a breeze. chilly temperatures. winds will calm down tonight. all because of big area of low pressure spinning over here. and it's dragging cold air, from hudson's bay in central canada, across the great lakes. when picking up moisture. and you can see the rain showers. now, in a couple of weeks, when you have these colder temperatures, these will be snow showers. we'll see plenty of that, i'm sure. as the lakes are warm, the cold water, excuse me, the cold air over the lakes, picks up that moisture and there you see those showers. when these expect to develop here across upper michigan, that will cross our region tomorrow afternoon. that means we'll have a chance. we'll see the clouds bending up. maybe a brief shower tomorrow afternoon. it remains on the cool side as high pressure and that low up to the north combine to bring that cool air in. eventually, to the end of the week, that high will cool us off. winds come southwest. warmer air starts riding over the cool air. warm

we have 75 in oakland, the cool spot. 82 in hagerstown, 84 on the shore and 81 in elkton. around the immediate metro area, temperatures reflecting winds coming in from the west, warming us up. the northerly component helping to usher in clouds. larger system out to our west will bring in first warning doppler radar and give you an idea what is sitting off to our west. the ohio valley is playing host to a large low pressure system that's trying to ease its way in here. currently high pressure still kind of dominating our forecast. this is going to start making its way in here by saturday. what we are going to see in the meantime, however, just a slight chance of showers, just like we had yesterday if you were in northern baltimore county, up toward hat ford or cecil counties, you heard rumbles of thunder late yesterday evening and in the bigger picture, this shows how this is shaping up. we do not have any rain area wide but this is going to start to make its way into the region. tomorrow a pretty nice day but it won't be long before tomorrow evening we start to see a chanc
