it's easier to not look at stuff 1,000 miles away, below the mason-dixon line. so these folks, these african-americans in the deep south had a tremendous barrier to overcome. and they used -- they needed media desperately. did it work? it worked. they finally got their confrontation. they finally got their confrontation and it was on the front page of newspapers all over the world. they got the negotiation. they got agreements to hire african-americans in stores to serve african-americans in lunch counters. seems like small potatoes, doesn't it? they had to go through all that just to get a few people hired in stores? amazing, isn't it? that's what king refers to in the letter which you read it's odd about how the nations of africa and asia are moving toward independence in jet-like speeds while we go in a horse and buggy to get what? a cup of coffee at a lunch counter. that's right. a cup of coffee at a lunch counter. exactly. so, ready to look at the letter? good. let's get the screen down. then we'll look at both letters. this is great. unlike the other class

this moves in an easterly direction it will compress this warm up over the bam region around the mason-dixon line then the front will come through. get to 66 degrees for an hour at about 3:00 or four hours. watch and warning of importance to us is a high wind warning from carroll county out to the west and wind advisory in effect for the central portion of the state and portions of the eastern shore with exception of the route 50 corridor down toward ocean city and gusts to 45 to 50 miles per hour. particularly start moving out toward carroll county and out west. 48 degrees right now. 5% humidity. barely breeze. barometer at 29.52 and we haven't been able to get temperatures up. you can see where this warm air is. 53 oakland and 53 and 06 pax river and ocean city we are getting a bay effect if you will. fact of the matter remains in three or four hours temperatures are going to hop up area-wide. front comes through the region. skies clear out and we were living large albeit nor february like, more standard readings last weekend of february than temperatures we had throughout 9 bulk of that w

one or two lonesome snowflakes cannot be ruled out but the snow showers will stay north of the mason -- dixonfor the rest of the evening. windchill and cold for the saturday evening. cold start tomorrow morning but without anywhere near as much wind around. that's good news as high pressure settles on in as that moves off the east coast, more sun and less wind for tomorrow. temperatures back up near 50 degrees. it will feel 15 or 20 degrees warmer tomorrow than it did today just because of the improvement in the wind situation. weather front coming our way ahead of that looks like a nice mild day coming up on monday with temperatures near 60 degrees again. so for this evening, partly cloudy. breezy and cold out there for your saturday evening. scarfs and mittens required. overnight tonight into early tomorrow morning, clear skies, cold but not quite as windy. winds tomorrow morning northwest 5 to 15. wake-up temperatures in the 20s. that will be a cold start. and then for tomorrow afternoon, mostly sunny. noticeably less wind to contend with for tomorrow and high temperatures upper 40s to aro

anyway, at least north of the mason-dixon line. here is a look at the doppler radar.th of pittsburgh pushing up into williamsport. but you can see a few clouds for us. a couple sprinkles could get into tucker county and west virginia on the other side of the divide. but i think these showers will stay north of the immediate metro area tonight and tomorrow. best chance of showers will be tomorrow night. so a chilly start. you'll need a light jacket. so the kids at the bus stop are going to need a coat, even though it's going to be almost 60 by afternoon. breezy and milder on wednesday. showers wednesday night. that's okay. we can live with that. do you know why? it's going to feel like april on thursday. temperatures are going to be well into the 60s on thursday. maybe even 70 down towards fredericksburg and certainly down towards richmond. so overnight partly cloudy, breezy and chilly. winds continue southwest 10-15. in the morning it will be a little chilly. but eventually we'll play off dividends. by morning partly cloudy, breezy, just chilly. 30s and 40s. winds sou

the 3 will probably be along the mason dixon line. in the light blue area we're thinking up to an inch, mostly on grassy areas, but you never know where bridges and overpasses might get a little slick closer to evening rush hour, especially if the snow tries to come down moderately for a little bit. here is a model projection of how much snow might fall in your region. around quantico we're thinking a couple 10ths tenths of an inch, just enough to make it slippery. frederick maybe just a little over 2 inches, gaithersburg about an inch. here in the district closer to 1/2-inch and the same for annapolis as well, maybe more if this thing gets its act together, but just clouds, maybe a little sunshine in the early morning. you can see it spreading from west to east by noon hour. you may see that in tom ace brook by 9:00 spreading into -- tom's brook by 9:00 spreading into the district at noon, still dry south and east. we pull up a little warmer air that brings some of that in as rain. by 4:00, 5:00, i think that's when we'll have to be

winter weather advisory near the mason-dixon line. the winds are a major, major factor into the course of today, and that is going to affect us in terms of the windchills. so, we're going to see a big, big difference when we move into tonight and into tomorrow. the winds are gusting anywhere from 25 to over 30, 37 miles an hour and that is going to continue. the wind advise or is in effect. the winds could be gusting up to 50 miles an hour and more into tonight and tomorrow. as a result of that, it's going to feel colder than it is. temperatures now into the 20s and 30s everywhere pretty much and we have the windchill factors that are pulling us to the teens and the low 20s. we'll see some single digits to the west as well. the evening snow showers still possible. windy, mostly cloudy, and winter is setting in and wait until you see the forecast late tonight and tomorrow. you better bundle up, back to you. >> thank you, gwen. >>> of course, if you want weather, get it any time at www.myfoxdc.com. it's a weather app and that is a good

around the top tier of on the mason-dixon line and up into that pennsylvania some of that is wet snowst of this is coming down in what form, not frozen form. that's the case throughout maybe the next few hours. a good bit of sunshine later this afternoon. 47 degrees is the daytime high. morning showers clear out and mainly clear tonight. tomorrow 52 and sunshine with a few patchy clouds. your complete forecast coming up in a few moments. >> is what people are talking about this morning. renewed efforts to find a man who sexually assaulted a woman at a strip mall. police say they have a better idea of who they are looking for. before that police are looking for this man. on january 21st, shortly before 11:00 p.m., investigators say he walked up to a woman at this chipmunk, sexually assaulted her, then ran away. >> officers canvassed the area and were unable to locate the suspect. at that point it was turned over to the criminal investigation. >> detectives are looking for witnesses. the suspect was wearing a dark colored jacket, jeans, and a gaining style hearing that night at the texa

some shower activity just north of the mason dixon line up there in pennsylvania. i'm not worried about any rain approaching in our region until early tomorrow morning. most likely when i say early, i'm talking about after that morning rush, this is a big storm. this is a storm that's going to put down a lot of snow just not here. we're talking about snow up toward wisconsin, the great lakes, 6 to 12 inches of snow there, over toward portions of new england, they will see pretty good snow. for us, mild air across the region continues during the day tomorrow, tomorrow the same type of air, we're talking about temperatures in the upper 40s to lower 50s. with sunshine that's great. with rain, that's not such a nice day. that's what we're going to deal with tomorrow, rain coming through on the warm front. later in the afternoon, into the overnight hours, on thursday, the wined withes could kick up and produce temperatures in the mid to upper 60s or 70s. to the north of washington, could be a little cooler here, we're watching out for that, right now, most everybody loo

which votes on super tuesday on march 6th, newt gingrich leads mitt romney by 14 points in the new mason dixon 12%. now look at pennsylvania. santorum's home state which doesn't vote until april. santorum has a one-point lead over romney in the latest susquehanna poll. 30% to 29%. i think that is important to note. and gingrich at 13%. if he can beat him there, that's a big win for santorum. >>> there's no compromise here. they are force reglidgeuous organizations either directly or incorrectly to pay for something they feel is a deeply morally, wrong thing. and this is not what the government should be doing. >> he's wrong there. welcome back to "hardball." rick santorum opposes president obama's compromise on contraceptive coverage. doesn't surprise me at all. he has an issue he thinks is tailor made for him. could rick santorum ride this to the nomination? is this the perfect political outcome for the obama administration? john lew said they didn't expect to win over the bishops on this. has obama won over the middle? >> we didn't expect to get the universal support of the bishops or all ca

sprinkle in the afternoon hours, a bit of light happening and probably more to the north of the mason dixone. so keep your eyes to the sky, but overall we are talking a pretty nice day with bright conditions across our entire area as we head into tomorrow. the jet stream just to the north of us. we've got cooler air there. we're getting drier milder air that will move in as we see those temperatures rise a bit into the low 50s into the course of the week. overall we won't be doing too bad. the only thing we'll have to dial with is on wednesday. this is future -- deal with is on wednesday. this is futurecast. right now it is showing into the afternoon hours a mix, a little wintery mix and light snow here and some to the south. you'll have to keep an eye on the forecast into the course of the week. in the meantime monday we're looking at lots of sunshine, about 47 degrees by midday. a cold night tonight, however, with temperatures in the low 30s and 20s, some patchy fog overnight lingering into the morning hours. by afternoon it burns off and we've got no shortage of sunshine. here's the five

you folks right along the mason-dixon line might see a snowflake or two, but once you get east of thes not going to be much of a problem. our next chance for any precipitation, which looks like it's going to be mostly rain, is way down here across the southern part of texas. it will be rolling in our direction as we get towards the second half of the day on tuesday. so, here's our future weather forecast. high pressure sitting back across the midwest. that's what's funneling the cold air in. so, we'll get a mix of clouds and sunshine today. the snows continue for snow lovers. the ski resorts out towards wisp in far western maryland. the snows will continue to pile up there. they have had between 6 and 12 inches of snow across western maryland, where we didn't get that much. high clouds race back tomorrow and maybe a flake or two early tuesday out across the mountains of west virginia, but by the time it gets to us, i think it will be rain. today, partly sunny, windy and cold, highs only into the low to mid-30s at best, and there's the rest of your seven-day forecast. a chilly one agai

current weather conditions mainly north of the mason dixon line. in the east. that's pushing off shore as we go throughout the day. then a new storm system will head our way. this storm system out in the plains producing snow from north dakota out into wisconsin. south of that, not a lot of activity. it is going to be the same case as the storm passes by our area on monday. so futurecast showing mostly dry throughout the day. as you say, completely dry, just mostly clear. then as we head into monday, that storm system does pass by the area. this is a front coming through. most of the activity is supposed to be south of baltimore. so southern maryland down along the eastern shore may see showers by monday afternoon. baltimore for now expecting to stay dry. we may see a couple more clouds into the afternoon. behind that front we will see a slight drop in temperatures. mostly dry. next storm system comes on wednesday. the seven-day forecast. 47 with sunshine. tomorrow will be a mild day. upper 50's for the afternoon high temperatures. those showers mo

north of the mason-dixon line there may be minor accumulations but i think during the day on wednesday even if we get flurries or light snow, temperatures should be warm enough where this is going to melt mainly on the road surfaces. some of the higher elevations out west could see higher consume layings but right now just some conversational snow is the way it looks. we'll be watching in case something changes but don't be surprised to see a couple of flakes on wednesday after a very pleasant, mild start to the week with 50s both today and tomorrow. wednesday, though, low 40s with mostly cloudy skies and the chance for some flurries or light snow in the afternoon. by wednesday night that clipper pushes through so thursday will be clearing, 46. friday 48. then another shot of cold air, maybe some flurries saturday. highs saturday and sunday likely holding in the 30s. yes, the 30s. so could be another good weekend for the ski resorts. it's 5:19. let's go to monika once again this monday morning. were you rooting for the giants? >> i actually was. i'm sorry, mike. i was and they won. all

right now the radar showing a few sprinkles around the bay and the mason dixon line.h and east. a cloudy, dry morning throughout the region. cold, we're down into the low to mid 20s, rather 30s throughout much of the region. yesterday, low 20s and teens. this morning quite a bit milder because of the cloud cover. it's going to stay this way, in the 30s, through the morning hours. we'll have our temperatures getting into the 40s this afternoon with the sunshine really being held back. maybe a little bit of a peak of sun this morning, around next half-hour or hour. otherwise, cloudy. then a greater chance of some sprinkle this time reaching the ground, maybe this evening, a small chance. cloudy this evening, near 40 at midnight. during the day on wednesday, we'll get sunshine back. morning lows near freezing. afternoon highs into the low 50s tomorrow. then rain likely on thursday with highs in the 40s. then friday, we'll get the sunsd 50. into the weekend, there's going to be an area of low pressure coming close to us from the south. and yesterday looked like it was goi

. >> i grew up on the mason-dixon line so i'm not that bright.hy are you running an ad against nancy pelosi when mitt romney is the front runner and you have to take him. >> the reason we did that is newt gingrich is in our pachlgt we offer the clear conservative alternative that mitt romney just doesn't have any credibility in offering. and when you take a look at a poll that just came out in ohio and also in missouri yesterday, a head-to-head between us and mitt romney we win and have a convincing lead in some of those polls. so it shows that people are clamoring for a conservative, that they can trust and has a conservative track record and quite frankly newt gingrich doesn't off that. and coming out of south carolina, he had a huge lead, huge momentum, huge buzz, goes down to florida, spends all this money, all this time and has nothing to show for it. so if you look at his campaign, you have to ask yourself, when he had a chance to take it to mitt romney one on one, he couldn't do it. so when we need to peare this race down to mitt and the a
