in the red this is us and we are at peak with the foliage.you're near the beaches, it will probably be better next week and only patchy color down through southeastern virginia, but those leaves will be dropping. they've hung in there quite a long time this year actually. tonight we are watching a system that will pass just to our south overnight and while it looks like a whole loft rain will come into d.c., what you're seeing is a lot that probably won't hit the ground. this area of low pressure produced the snow we saw yesterday in denver. that will move want to east. rough surf for the carolinas as it gets off the coast, but we think that thing will basically miss d.c. there are going to be light showers around. it might get as close as fredericksburg overnight. this is what we're seeing now, very light spotty showers. this will fill in overnight and central virginia will get some showers, wanted to show you how much rain potentially could fall in the green here. this is mainly south and west of d.c., anywhere from .1-inch maybe up to 1/2-

the foliage looking beautiful along the potomac river. a plane coming in for landing at reagan national. it's 57 degrees with bright sun. we have a light breeze bringing in the balmy weather for november. there is the view from space, and we have had a few high clouds drifting in the west, and we also have a bit of fog lingering in southern maryland, northern neck, and up towards st. michaels, and that area of fog should be dissipating over the next hour or so. and elsewhere, lots of sunshine showing up. further to the west, though, we do have some of the showers now into eastern kentucky, and central ohio. this is along the front. it will be drifting our way bringing in the clouds and the threat of rain here by later tonight, and during the day tomorrow. but right now, it's mild. it's climbing to around 60 throughout much of the region. they have the fog, and easton and cambridge, and it's in the low 50s there, and annapolis has fog around 50 degrees. get away from the fog and it's a much warmer temperature, and out of the mountains, som

there is too much foliage that has to be trimmed away in some places great it is not healthy it -- if it is overgrown. no son gets in there. -- no sun gets in there. i am not sure if i am in favor of the green language, where every time you lose some open space or even the smallest amount, you have to replace it in kind. i am not sure that there is a quality of open space as opposed to just open space in general. also, i am not sure if every single acre is protected that we have. there might be some opportunity sites where housing might be possible, particularly in the western and southern part of san francisco. there are not a lot of sites, but there might be some that makes sense that not every single inch of open space has to be maintained the way it is. especially if we could realize the revenue and the ability to improve what we have to a higher level. we do not have a lot of extra land in san francisco, as you are aware. if you go through manhattan, there are not a lot of spaces. most of what they have is open space is developed in one form or another. a little bit different, i
