it's going to be a touch of humidity during the day today. we moved into spring. never mind winter, because later today we're flirting with record high temperatures. 51 right now in washington. another mild start. and there are 40s off to the west and north. all right, let's get down to business. and a combination of a warm front trying to come through at the moment. that could give us early showers. and then a cold front, a couple phases to it. we're going to have another front come through later this afternoon. when the front comes through, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 this afternoon, sparks off another round of showers, perhaps thunderstorms. and then a lot of wind will come racing in with the front. and we're concerned we could have gusty wins late this afternoon or early this evening. how much wind? well, the possibility of up to about, oh, slow motion today, about 50 miles per hour winds. in fact, a wind advisory. look at the counties in light brown here. we're concerned 50 miles per hour gusts in washington. to the north and west, you've got a high wind warning in effe

little humid air out there later on today. not overly uncomfortable in terms of humidity, but something we have not felt in quite awhile. a lot of action to talk about. if very active on this friday. areas of light rain just north of the metro and clipping chevy chase and bethesda right now, a quick sprinkled that will move into a silver spring. carroll county seeing steady rain. howard county as well. frederick, martinsburg berkeley, and jefferson county no. frederick county in virginia a band of rain passing to the east this morning and this afternoon we will be partly cloudy with thunderstorms. the time frame will be 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. for thunderstorms in the east of the blue ridge. it will be gusty today. embedded with thunderstorms and possibly severe storms. the winds will gust across the board. wind advisory locally 55. high wind 24 this afternoon and evening off to our west, meaning gusts up to 60 in those locations quest of the metro area. the rain falling apart really this morning. this dynamic low pressure syst

that is going to mean higher humidity levels. now in and around the canyon itself it looks like at the ridge tops the winds are 10 to 15 miles per hour, of course, the firefighters would prefer no wind at all but a southwesterly and northwesterly wind better than the offshore winds. in the canyon another warm day, temperatures 75 degrees. checked in around the napa area, humid levels are up from 24 hours ago, so hopefully that may be a little bit of a benefit to the firefighters. >> people in the midwest would love to have the bay area's weather. a winter weather advisory was in effect in chicago until a couple of hours ago because of this, thick heavy snow. travelers on the roads and in the air having problems. more than 150 flights have been cancelled at chicago's o'hare airport alone. that includes flights to and from the bay area. this video from this morning shows the flight board at sfo and cancelled flights from the chicago area. sfo officials say 4 arrivals were cancelled this morning. they tell us things look normal for

we have extremely low humidity they're dealing with. and winds where jean is, gusting from 20 to 25 miles per hour. this is some of the worst conditions you could ever have for a fire in february. and the key component to all of this was that dry, northerly wind. 20 to 40 miles per hour, up across the elevations, anywhere from 1,500 to 2,000 feet, just to the east and slightly south. here's the good news for firefighters and people living in that area tomorrow, the winds will be more favorable. coming out of the south. more onshore and humidity increasing. and temperatures cropping. relief coming our way in the next 24 hours. we'll have details and changes for your weekend in minutes. >> we'll see you soon. >>> just in tonight, traffic is moving once again, after a major accident on a south bay freeway. a crash shut down all northbound lanes in campbell. this is right along highway 17. the accident happened just north of hamilton avenue. right during rush hour. crews managed to clear the wreck after several hours. >>> a new lead tonight

thanks for joining us, 37 degrees 88% humidity, it is mild and humid. a southerly breeze at three. that is going to drive our forecast, that southerly breeze for the next couple of days. barometer at 29.82. let me show you what i mean when i say drive the forecast because that southerly breeze we are anywhere from 10 to 25 degrees, depending upon where you are, warmer than at this time yesterday. and i will show that to you and explain in a second. those are your temperatures in those areas. 47 degrees in ocean city. 39 now westminster and bellaire, 37 columbia. those are your temperatures there. look at that 24 degrees warmer in ocean city than yesterday, 21 degrees warmer in cumberland, baltimore 12 than yesterday. through this day a couple of showers passing by west. every once in a while clouds spill over the mountains here into central maryland but the big story is that it is going to be mild today and potentially milder tomorrow. now to by honest yesterday only got 49. it did get into the forecast high of 53 downtown but around the area because of clouds blocking sun we never

humidity, 33 degrees. humidity, 46%. northwest winds. there hasn't been a breeze all day long. barometer on the way back up. right now, the cold spot out in oakland, at 2,000 feet up. it's 34. 46. cumberland. and locally, there's still a breeze. 48 up in westminster, bel air and rock hall. and still 50 in annapolis. kent island area. and the columbia, baltimore area. 57, 48 today. the low last night, still 48 degrees. for this time of year. normal high, 25. later tonight, skies will be clear. winds will die down. we'll go down to about freezing for this time of year. that's still well above average. record high, 1967. 71. yesterday, by the way, we were 70. we were 5 degrees shy of the record yesterday. the record low, 1961. 1 above zero. there's that breeze. lower eastern shore, pretty light. 977-16, 21 in d.c. so even though it's in the low 60s, it does feel a little cooler because of the wind chill. we had a little precip across virginia this morning. moved offshore. lower eastern shore got a little bit of rain. that's all moved out. a big storm is developing out around weste

. >> a little humidity out there. >> yeah. >> we haven't done a lot of humidity. >> no, we haven't.t has been dry. >> with temperatures in the upper 40s and low others and just a few showers moving through, we have a little humidity out there. should be a beautiful day and it will be a spring-like day with temperatures in the upper 60s and low 70s. >> that sounds so good. i could just listen to that all year long. >> talker talking about the weather? >> tucker saying upper 60s. that too. >> as long as he's saying upper 60s. >> our humidity up, 86%. >> i knew t my hair is the barometer for it. >> the wind is out of the south and west at eight. a little bit of shower activity off the coast east of owe help city. you can't see it here on this particular radar and a few more light showers out to the west. if you are watching now towards hagerstown, cumberland, you might be encountering another light shower. but here, closer to town, inside the beltway, i think we're generally done with the rain showers for this morning. partly sunny skies, unseasonably warm, our average daytime high is

humidity bone dry. dry air in place. this is the story tomorrow, more sunshine and comfortable temperatures what is the big deal about the forecast? sunday, completely different. of course, the weather can change extremely rapidly in mid february in maryland. here is the maryland landmark for you. the bay bridge, lots of traffic. clear skies over the bridge after morning fog. mount airy, summit ridge, interesting this sunday snow system likely to provide much more snow to areas to the south and not north western areas like mount airy which get our higher snow totals, bel air same deal. northern areas may get cut off. more accumulations in places like annapolis, easton and further south, ocean city. take a look at maryland's most powerful radar, there are already, winter storm watches up for central virginia. points well west of dc and baltimore. that is for sunday, not for tonight or tomorrow. temperature wise, statewide, comfortable numbers for all but oakland and extreme western maryland, humidity, low, comfortable, pl

humidity only 41%.r humidity, where everybody scuffs on the rug and l electrocutes their neighbor, it's dry. temperatures now mid- to upper 20s across most of the area. but the winds are remaining up. so winds are still gusting between 25 and 30 miles per hour across most of the region. as a result, windchills are in the teens. they are headed into the single digits before midnight tonight. luckily though, unlike this time last night, we don't have any snow on storm 4 radar. there are snow flakes across pennsylvania, but they are drying out as they come further to the south. they will not be impacting our weather later on this evening e. the next thing we're waiting on is this moisture in texas. snowing in lubbock texas. rain in the fort worth area. it will start to arrive here as we get into the late night hours monday night and on tuesday. so cold and breezy for the rest of your sunday night. bright sunshine returns tomorrow. but with high pressure scooting to the south, our winds will come back aroun

dropping that humidity, dropping the temperatures two to three degrees relative to yesterday.rrow we will go back to 50 but the chance for rain in earnest by after 2:00. lasting through tomorrow evening. this the first of two weather systems we are watching, we will talk more about that coming up. >> all right. there are efforts tonight to crack down even more on human trafficking here in the state. there are several bill that have been submit that expand the definition of child abuse orn and prostitution. the bills would raise human trafficking to a felony for any kidnapping of a child under the age of 1. those who support it say our laws are just not tough enough. >> when i asked why here, why did the traffickinger bring you here they said nobody is pay paying attention here. >> they would have to also post a national trafficking hotline number at bus stations and truck stops. snow can expect the debate tomorrow on the proposed same sex marriage bill. around this tippled though, a 45 member panel voted in favor of the bill to pass it on to the full chamber. opponents pointed

relative humidity is 100%. today will turn out to be a nice day with mostly sunny skies and a high temperature near 52. that is not bad for this time of year. we'll come back and detail the forecast for the weekend. >> good morning. we're in pretty good shape on most of the major roadways despite the fog. is one problem on northbound 95. shutdown at riverside park way because of a tractor-trailer fire. it may be overturned. it may be awhile before they can clear completely. traffic is being diverted at 543 and then take pulaski highway. we have an accident in essex. another one as you make your way through the glen burnie area. 43.s is 95 at 5 under 4 all traffic is being diverted over to pulaski highway. look how thick the fog is at sandy point. that is the latest on traffic pulse 11. >> four people are recovering from injuries following a collision on 95 in cecil county. police say this happened shortly before midnight in the southbound lanes along mile- marker 93 in perryville. a passing car struck a vehicle

humidity 36%. not a terribly moist atmosphere.the day, we will raise that number. 30, 30 the pair metric pressure. winds at the minute calm. predominant winds more easterly. the approaching moisture from the west, plus a developing easterly, or northeasterly wind will bring moisture in here. and then eventually as precipitation. a45 in annapolis. frederick 30. hagerstown 34. 32 out of oakland. 25 at frostburg now. there you see the thin clouds overhead. the clouds get a little heavier along with the moisture out in ohio. and michigan and indiana. then it changes to snow out in iowa. the storm center itself is in missouri and northern arkansas. it will be tracking toward the ohio river valley, then just to the south of us over the next 24 to 36 hours. so this high pressure that's giving us the nice weather now will be moving out of the way so that this can come into the picture. we won't be getting the heavy snows they have been getting out in the plains. just a hit and miss thing. increasing clouds in today. developing showers. of

at the airport, 82% the humidity. at the moment, the winds are calm. later on today, the predominant wind will be to the east. that will feed into the approaching storm and double the moisture we have. yes, we have precipitation in the forecast later today. temperatures, well, yes, we had ai spike last weeks from 70, 71 degrees in the middle of the week. now on the sly to release the wild here. we'll take a spike next week and get back to normal. we're making adjustments as we get into the latter portions of winter time here. the last of real winter is this month. 30 in elkton, parkton 30. freezing in oakland out in far western maryland now. the satellite eskimos high, thin clouds -- the sty shows high, thin clouds coming in. thicker clouds out west are the rain makers and snow. right up here, this little band along the indiana-ohio-michigan line. f -- that will dissipate during the day today. the real storm center out of the owe zarks -- ozarks and tennessee 10 -- and tennessee. the moisture does come in. increasing clouds, rain showers. east to north
