jamie sullivan is keeping track on where the backup are. jamie: there is someone in each one of these cars. trust me. route 50 is quiet now on the beltway without any issues. no delays whatsoever. i want to move to the maps because where we are seeing an issue is southbound on the baltimore washington parkway. heading south from route 32, trying to get closer to the capital beltway. accident blocking one lane near 197. 6 miles per hour. this is a four-mile backup. my suggestion as an alternate is bail out at route 32. take it to 95. then continue south from that point. this stretch will take you 40 minutes. just getting closer toward the on the beltway we are in good shape on the outer loop through montgomery county. tonight, around 9:00 p.m., not 9:00 a.m., until 5:00 a.m. they will close four lanes to the 270 spur. overnight project they have in place. not bad in district. little volume but that is it. look at traffic. back to you. jonathan: thank you. today is crossing forward appreciation day. two local crossing guards are recognized by

jamie sullivan is on traffic watch. jamie: i want to start with the sun glare and the slowing.gallows road. it is cold. no rain to deal with. we are heavy to route 32. that will take you an average of 25 minutes. 45 minutes on 75 between the beltways. we have mobile crews all over the weekend. we still have the potholes that are not filled. so be careful and take it easy. i went to mobiletrak7 with sam sweeney who is approaching an accident all afternoon on route one. what are you seeing? sam: good afternoon. it is a mess out here. take a live look. it's some of the backup on route one richmond highway right now. approaching fry road. this is because of a serious accident. if we can go to pictures from news chopper 7. five vehicles involved. five people to the hospital. three in critical condition. two of them are taken by ambulance. one by medivac. two people with non-life threatening injuries. this was one truc we understand someone in the northbound lane was driving and they crossed over the yellow line and hit another car head on and that hit three other cars. a big mess he

jamie sullivan standing by. how is it looking? traveling on are the outer loop of the beltway, more volume than what we are used to. again, we are mainly seeing that just here on the outer loop. the reason is because of an earlier car fire. let's talk about how big is the backup is. it was about seven miles from the wilson bridge. now the heaviest wilson bridge, up to about nine miles right now of stop and go traffic. if you live in alexandria, king street eastbound is closed because of a traffic break. , youu travel outbound dropped down to 11 miles per hour because of a crash. it will take about 30 minutes to get to the maryland line. still pretty clear. heading northbound right near route one, three lanes are blocked with an accident. again, that is northbound, where we typically don't see any slowing. southbound, you can see that solid red line does continue. back to you. michelle: don't forget about these guys. our bald eagle cam. you can see them at aches to hatch. that should happen within the next 30-35 days. we have the l

jamie sullivan is watching traffic for us tonight. we have a water main break. jamie: we do. some of the issues we are seeing now in the area is potholes and water main breaks. this is a live look in the arlington neighborhood. on wilson boulevard. the closure is from quinn street continuing that issue. get closer to the rhodes boulevard. go to the map. i want to focus in on what you need to know with the biggest issue with this. that is getting around it. going to the map i want to show you what you need to know. that is a stretch that is blocked off from quinn street to rhodes street. 16th street is a best alternate. this is rosslyn toward courthouse neighborhood in clarendon boulevard. that is the issue. 16th street runs parallel. that is the best option. clarendon is one way in the opposite direction. typical for the afternoon drive along the capital beltway. but north on 270, we are in the teens. a class closer, take a live look at the beltway before you get to 270. you request see a solid stretch of the bumper to bumper traffic. alison: the h.o.v. lanes will be closed o

while we are talking about getting around in cars let's check in with jamie sullivan for a look at traffic on thursday. a bus is sitting there not moving. jamie: that is right. dhsabled bus on the capital beltway. this is on the inner loop before you get to connecticut avenue. tow truck on the scene. we have a few police cruisers behind to give everyone a heads up to get to the left or the right. a bad spot. move to the ways map. i want to check in with the ways community saying it' complete standstill. this is approaching old germtown road. just past the 270 spur. you can see how solid the red line of traffic is. moving to the maps let's break down how big the backup is. show you where it is. this is near connecticut avenue. the disabled bus. this backup is 14 miles. that is mixed in with an earlier crash near georgia avenue to add to the typical slowing we see. then we have a disabled bus. so on average of 11 miles per hour hour. water main is still in place. woodly park closed between 27 and 28 street. this is scheduled until 5:30. when they hope to get the repairs done. connecticut, ca

jamie sullivan keeping an eye on things. friday. a lot of folks getting home earlier and trying to get on the road at the same time. jammed look at everyone -- jamie: look at everyone. they are trying to get out of town or get home. it's friday. we are typically seeing this volume. but as you can see here on the american legion bridge this is the inner loop as well as the outer loop we have to volume. move to the map to focus in on what we are seeing on the baltimore washington parkway. 2 miles per hour. the reason for the delay is because of a crash. keep in mind as you head northbound it is going to be 22 miles per hour. 95, we are a little bit better. top side of the beltway, we are okay. a crash on college park blocking the lane. that is where you see the buildup on 795. as we pull out a little bit more, a big picture, yes. slowing in the normal spot. bottom of the beltway and the northwest corner. but a reminder the d.c. streetcar launch is tomorrow. there is a 10:00 a.m. ceremony. but make sure you don't open up the door when t

jamie sullivan is on traffic watch for us. how does it look? jamie: it is slow. you can see behind me. though it is getting better. we started out the afternoon rush with two major crashes. now we are left with just slow traffic. no big crashes. this is a look near the american legion bridge. as we move to the maps you can get a good idea of where we see heavier volume. in the northwest corner we areing through prince george's county since the beltway. nothing that is a major issue to worry about. run through travel times. start off in virginia. 66 to american legion bridge on inner loop. half an hour. 270 northbound from beltway to 121 under 40 minutes. then in d.c. southbound 295 getting to capital beltway near national harbor under 20 minute. back to you. leon: all right. thank you. d.c. mayor muriel bowser is deploying snowplows on bridges now and overpasses as well. that is all going to happen at 2:00 a.m. in preparation of possible light snow overnight. alison: talk about what to expect with this. chief meteorologist doug hill standing by. doug: we are wait

jamie sullivan is joining us now. tonight we have traction out there after slipping and sliding last night. jamie: you say what a difference a day make, even five or six hours. we have the closure in loudoun county. this is between the dulles greenway and sycolin road. the best alternate is battlefield parkway. suzanne kennedy took this. -- brianne carter took this from mobiletrak7. you are now in alexandria and what a difference four or five hours does make. brianne: that is the key we said all along. what a difference it has made throughout the day. take a look from the mobiletrak7. this is the majority of what we see on the roads. a little slush left to the side. either wet or the dry pavement depending where you are driving. but most of the major roadways, it's now drying out. that is the good news as we hour. federal workers are going in late today, going to be heading home this evening. we are going to keep a close eye on the roads and what they are shaping up to look like. but again, the sun coming down and the
