lexington park, mid 70s by noontime. a look at the rest of your tuesday, that's coming in about ten minutes. danella, traffic? >> first 4 traffic, checking on a couple of incidents. volume in our area, very light. around the beltway, prince gorges county, inner loop, past central avenue you'll see two right lanes blocked by the work zone there. also, the outer loop of the beltway, this is passing route 50 also in maryland. as you travel the outer loop, again, you'll see two right lanes blocked by the road work. you can see all of these green cars get by. that means the volume is light. the other incident i want to warn you about, folks traveling 66 eastbound, medical emergency at nuttily. it was in the right lane then it moved to the right shoulder lane. you're traveling to the 66 is open. >>> 4:30. congress will return to capitol hill. it's square one as they look to end the government shutdown. after a day sending resolutions back and forth, lawmakers aren't any closer.

it's a disaster that comes out -- story that comes out of lexington, illinois. yesterday. 60 area farmers gathered north on a sunday morning to go to work. to pay back a friend who helped them out at one time or another during his 71-year lifetime. 16 combines harvested more than 300-acres of corn as friends of decade thomas brought in the harvest. he died of a heart attack. they decided to end family farm operations. but these neighbors pitched in. they wanted to harvest david thomas' land. and make sure last crop was brought in for his family. it is the kind of compassion and caring and family and community which we see in many states, but i see over and over again in my home state of illinois. it is not unique. it happens often. every time it does it's worthy of note. it's a special comment on the people of the great nation and their caring for their neighbors. the area farmers not too far from lexington are planning a similar harvest operation for another neighbor, dave harrison this morning. dave pasted away last week. time and again the farm families put a

the area farmers in shinoa, not too far from lexington, are planning a similar harvest operation for another neighbor, dave harrison, this morning. dave passed away last week. time and again, these farm families put aside their own physical comfort, their own daily schedules, their own lives to help one another. it just is such a wonderful comment on this great nation that we call home and the area that i am so proud to represent. the second article that just jumped off the page after i read this came out of kansas, wichita, kansas, and quoted tim peterson. he's a wheat farmer. i'm not as familiar with wheat as i am with corn and soybeans, but he started talking about the problems he is running into. his problems are created by us, because, you see, tim doesn't have access to vital agricultural reports. they are casualties of the federal government shutdown. we have stopped publishing this information. farmers like tim peterson and others are forced to make some very important family decisions, some important financial decisions without the necessary information. the reports can aler

north of lexington on a sunday morning to go to work. to pay back a friend who had helped them out at one time or another in the 71-year lifetime. 16 combines harvested 300 acres of corn as they brought in thomas last harvest. thomas died of a heart attack on july 22nd. they decided to end family farm operations. he wrote how it broke the family's heart to give up the farm. these neighbors pitched in. they wanted to harvest david thomas' land and make sure that the last crop was brought in for his family. it's the kind of compassion and caring and family and community which we see in many states. but i see over and over again in my home state of illinois. er it's not unique, it happens often. it's worthy of note. a special comment on the people of the great nation and their caring for the neighbors. the area farmers in shenoa not too far are planning a simple operation for another neighbor this morning. dave passed away last week. time and again, the farm families put aside their own physical comfort, schedules, and lives to help with on

we're hearing kentucky now, lexington, kentucky, 2900 people were able to sign up yesterday.bers may be improving today. an interesting sort of collision here. we heard about 3 million people signed up -- 3 million people tried to sign up around the country. we couldn't get an exact number how many people were successful in part because one of the people at the department of health and human services giving us this information has been furloughed. as part of the government shutdown. a little bit of irony there. makes it harder to get that information. a lot of people asking about premiums, how much is this going to cost, one of the most common questions. some of those numbers are going to come out still in the weeks and months ahead. what we're hearing for people who are joining the health care exchange, the marketplace for the first time, people who have not had health care insurance before and are also getting subsidies, the average cost about $100 a month or even less than that. 60% of people paying around that much money. but again, those numbers are a little bit of a mov

lexington park at 56°. cooler in the outlying areas. yesterday, we made it up to 76°.is in perspective, this warmup is coming. our high today is 74°. we are going to top that by almost 10°, so well above the average. rainfall in the last 24 hours. nothing for about a week and a half. so our rainfall deficit is down about 2.5" for the entire month of september. so there's none in the forecast, at least not this work week. and you can see high pressure is now building in across the region and very little cloud cover expected today. one or two clouds out there, but overall, just spectacular conditions. our system is affecting the canadian maritime and not even bringing any clouds for us. very beautiful conditions, our highs will be in the lower 80s. tonight, clear and cool, 52-60°, a look at our 7-day forecast shows you that tomorrow we'll be in the 80s. that will stick with us through the work week and the weekend. and we push back the rainfall, which will make you happy and it won't arrive until monday. we'll keep you up to date on the tracking of that storm. let's find

we asked the bird man of lexington. >> the effectiveness of this law depends on broad participation. that requires outreach and social agreement to be part of this new social contract where everyone gets health insurance. that worked in massachusetts. we ran ads between the first and second inning of every red sox game in the summer of 2007. >> the state's health connector has affordable plans, lots to choose from and easy signup. >> no one ran ads saying don't get health insurance, there were no protests. that may not be true in some of these states. >> reporter: indeed, it already isn't, as this ad from a group called generation opportunity makes clear. >> if they convince healthy people to stay out of the pool, that raises rates for everyone else and makes the law less successful. >> reporter: on the other hand, some 24 million people like deb dorsey are expected to get insurance through an exchange over the next two years. >> i have to have insurance. i have a pacemaker. i have to see my oncologist once a year. i have medication that im on that i have and its expensive, it can be

did reach out to senator paul, senator mcconnell, and to the republican congressmen who represent lexington, all of them declined to speak about it this week. i got to speak to matt beven who runs a small business and he's running for mitch mcconnell's seat. >> those subsidies for three years are going to cover kentuckians three years and it's being paid for by other taxpayers including those from kentucky. when the subsidies are gone, then it,s increased -- increase in tax. it's a regressive tax on the working poor. that's the primary reason i'm opposed to this. >> now, the rollout has been a little bumpy. it's no secret. as traffic on the sign-up sites has been heavier than expected, that's what we're seeing. the white house said that 4.7 million people went to healthcare.gov in just the first 24 hours. 8:00 a.m. eastern, the doors fling open on the new marketplace, where millions of americans should be able to sign up for health insurance. but within minutes, thud. the site started going down. overwhelmed, they say, by heavy traffic. new york state, internal service error. washington sta

both in the northbound and southbound direction you just might find it and this is south of the lexington reservoir if you are traveling in both directions it could affect your commute. watch out for rock slides along highway 17. this is the big moodiy curb south of the reservoir, so we are already seeing volume building in the southbound direction and northbound side, though, does not appear to be affected. now a look at the golden gate bridge we have clear traffic right now and we had commute northbound direction with cones being picked up but southbound side will take you about eight minutes to ahead away from sausalito through the waldo tunnel and into san francisco. now our warm-up, here is mike nicco. here is a look at the day planner over the next 12 hours, it is cooler when you step outside this morning with a slightly heavy sweatshirt or coat temperatures running in the 40's or 50's and may dip down to 39 in napa. total sunshine at the coast, temperatures are around 68 to 70 degrees at noon no matter where you are. we will see a microclimate develop at 4:00 with temperatures warm

according to the economist magazines, with the lexington deal. i hope i'm not revealing state secrets. [ laughter ] >> obama's approval rating climbed to 56% and his disapproval rating, 56%. his approval rating dropped to 42% during the standoff. is this an incentive for obama to negotiate with the republicans? >> why doesn't he call their bluff? they want long-term deficit reduction. he should put some things on the table as we have seen this. but if you are all about winners and losers, we don't want to forget about the international side of this, which is a huge loser for this. america around the world. why was president obama suppose to be as this kicked off. he was suppose to be on a really important tour trip of asia, yet the asian allies were very worried about the rise of china. the country where i used to be posted. they wanted to seat american warships, playing their role as a free trade refugee. obama was going to go and reassure the asian allies, making this pivot to asia as he will need to do that. and he could not set it off. and th

even lexington having a freeze this morning. so the cold is really taking hold across the midwest and the tennessee valley. with this broad upper level flow, this trough on top of us, we continue with the northwesterly winds, the rain and showers going on but around here during the day, we'll bubble up a few clouds here and there. yesterday we had enough instability to bubble up a couple of sprinkles. looking at our futurecast, the late streamers continue this morning. we'll take you through lunch time. mostly sunny around here. some showers off shore and lake effect rain and snow showers still going on from ohio to pennsylvania and new york. that will be the case for the evening. so we'll be partly to mostly sunny today. still a bit breezy. tonight clear and cold again. tomorrow looks pretty good. we are going to watch one system pass to our north. you see the rain and snow well up in ontario? new york state and new england? it will bring a weak cold front here tomorrow, perhaps a few clouds tomorrow night so sunday might be a
