it feels like 26 in gaithersburg. feels like 28 degrees at andrews. the windchill will continue to be a factor overnight tonight but the winds themes are going to settle down. when you get really cold even the slightest breeze gives awe windchill factor. overnight tonight more of the clouds creeping in from the west. but you can see that the bulk of the cloud cover and the snow showers have moved up to the knot and east. another disturbance approaching though from the southwest and because it's coming to us from the southwest we're not expecting any snow in the d.c. metro area. but take a look at 9 futurecast as we head through the day on sunday completely clear. but then the clouds start to drift in. as we head into monday morning. the rush hour is still completely career. but the clouds and also the snow showers approaching as we head toward noon will get that snow showing up in the mountains and probably have an accumulating snow in the higher elevations on monday and then that rain snow line very quickly moves north to the mason dixon line. as you

same thing around gaithersburg. not going to last for much longer.e been saying that after noon today, it's really rain that starts take over, and this whole system is gone shortly after that. a light coating, maybe some areas get an inch out of this. kind of an unevent for us. 36 degrees. we've cooled down since the snow has moved in. we may rise to a high of 39. then 39, cold, and windy with sunshine tomorrow. new year's eve is looking dry. >> all right. been great to have you here. >> keeping us in the know on all the snow. >> thanks for joining us. >> we're going to be back here tomorrow morning at 6:00 a.m. until then, we hope you have a great saturday.

temperatures are still above freezing in a couple locations, like hagerstown 34, 36 in frederick and gaithersburg, still 40 in d.c., but we have strong winds ouof the north and northwest. a 32 miles per hour wind gust right now in hagerstown, 1 in manassas, 16 miles per hour in d.c. those strong winds out of the northwest are bringing in colder air. so we will see the temperature drop below freezing, especially in the north and west suburbs. 26 to 32 for your overnight lows. we'll slowly warm into the 30s as we head towards 10:00 a.m. that will help to melt any of that black ice that might be out on the roadways. keep in mind the sun doesn't come up until about 7:30 in the morning this time of year. so you might have some lingering black ice into the early morning hours. surae, i'll tell you more about those gusty winds in tomorrow's forecast coming up. >> thank you, erica. >>> as the end of the year deadline approaches to avoid a series of tax increases and spending cuts that will impact most americans, senate leaders are trying to put together some kind of agreement to avert the so-called fisca
