for today, it is warm and muggy. a mixture of sun and clouds.e put that 30% chance for a shower or thunderstorm. another hot one tomorrow. temperature will be close to 90. a good chance for showers and thunderstorms late saturday and into sunday morning. some of gorgeous weather coming up early next week. temperatures dropped into the 50's during the overnight period. 6:15. >> good morning. a few problems in harford county. route one is shut down because of an overnight accident. the investigation continues near route 1. avoid that by taking 95 this morning. on 95, southbound 95 the past 543, an accident is off the right shoulder. things are moving well out of the white marsh area. 61 pass 70 towards baltimore national pike. on 97, average speeds around 62. this is 95 south of 543. traffic is flowing just fine. 295 southbound is picking up in volume. that is the latest on traffic pulse 11. >> thank you. four people are dead after a collision between a school bus and a tractor-trailer. both drivers and two passengers on the bus were killed. the s

a warm and muggy evening with temperatures near 80 in some locations. that will set the stage for a potential shower. fender chances mainly to the south but severe storm -- severe storms in northern virginia from d.c. south into virginia but you can see showers near hagerstown and parts of frederick county. sprinkle some parts of frederick county, all that moving east so that the rain chances will be increasing as we go through the football game hours. the potential for what weather during the football game this evening. our forecast -- 76 at kickoff. 72 by the game is over. maybe 60% chance of showers at the stadium tonight. east wins at 5 to 10 miles an hour and monday downtown. there has already been some rain in parts of northern maryland. heavy downpours and upwards of a major grain up there. nothing so far in the rain gauge. almost 7 inches below normal for the state. 81 degrees at that airport. -- a recordcantly on this day. i can still get cold, it can still get hot. we still see a lot of seventies and upper '70's in some locations. look for low

another mile and muggy night. cover and light southeast wind will keep it mild, in the '60s overnight with scattered showers pushing through under mostly cloudy skies. this area of low pressure developing ahead of this low will track along the front and push it further south. that should change the pattern as we get into the weekend. hit and missed scattered showers on the eastern shore and saturday, we get some sunshine early in the day but an afternoon shower could pop up to the south and east of baltimore. sunday, a cooler day and the risk of a shower although we will get some sun until midday. showers may push toward the east during the afternoon and evening. still unsettled and it will cool off a bit. 75 to 80 tomorrow with mostly cloudy skies. the wind will be out of the west as the front moves through. the wind will shift to a westerly direction. the forecast drops the temperatures back with highs in the low seventies of the weekend. a little more sunshine monday through wednesday of next week. starting tod

other than an isolated shower, we're just cloudy and muggy. looking at temperatures climbing into the 80s by noon with a better chance of some showers and storms for the afternoon and evening hours. the ride home may be marred by a few thunderstorms. 86 by 4:00 with a high around 87. could be 3:30, 4:30, that time frame and low 80s at 8:00. you'll notice the showers from overnight have lifted into pennsylvania. a couple of very light ones near hagerstown and western maryland. hagerstown this morning is 73. cumberland 72 with mid-70s down at the pax river naval air station, easton 75. fredricksburg 74. and here in washington as we look outside on our michael & son weather camera. another cloudy morning. about 25 minutes before sunrise. starting to brighten up the clouds. 76. dew point 71. that is tropical air in place with the humidity at 85%. it's september now. there's still summertime heat going strong. look at oklahoma city and dallas. up around 105. 95 for kansas city. 09 in chicago. we'll see a little bit of heat creep toward us for thurs

for tonight, partly cloudy, muggy, a few thunderstorms possible. some could be hefty in terms of rain fall. lows between 70 and 75. winds southwest at 10. so inside the beltway in downtown, we're talking mid 70s. north and west, still 70 in gaithersburg, 74 downtown. 72 for a low in college park. and even out in sterling and leesburg and manassas, not going to make it into the 60s tonight, probably around 70. tomorrow morning, partly sunny, warm and humid. a late shower possible. the morning commute should be dry. and by afternoon, well partly sunny, hot and humid. showers and storms possible. high temperatures near 90. winds out of the southwest at 10. some storms again could produce some heavy rain. so high temperatures upper 80s primarily gaithersburg, rockville. maybe a touch 90 until arlington. 89 downtown. 88 over in bowie. and even upper 80s in reston and fairfax. even leesburg and manassas will be in the upper 80s to almost 90. so we'll break it down for you. 70s to start. 82 to 86 by noon. slight chance of a shower. better chance of a thun

tonight mostly cloudy, muggy, a few storms. now the storms that develop could produce heavy rain because there's a lot of moisture in the atmosphere, lows 68 to 74, winds south, southeast at 10. so inside the beltway downtown not so comfortable tonight, 69 in gaithersburg, but 70 in rockville, 69 in reston but 73 in arlington and 72 over in college park. tomorrow morning becoming partly sunny and warm, slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm, but i think the morning commute will be dry. that will be one silver lining for what's a messy morning commute, 70s and 80s and by afternoon we're looking at temperatures again 84 to 89, more humid than anything and a few showers or thunderstorms are possible. now the next three days we'll keep it code yellow with a threat of storms on tuesday, wednesday, thursday, 87 tomorrow, 89 wednesday and then 91 on thursday. next seven days, well, we got showers in the forecast still on friday. saturday a cold front rolls through. that should finally clear us out and get rid of what's left of isaa

it has been so muggy today. it has been so so muggy for the last several days. the dew points have been running 70 plus. anytime you have dew points up over 70 degrees, it is going to feel muggy. when you factor that in, look at the heat index, well into the upper 80s here in town, middle 80s for gaithersburg, and feels like 94 right now for frederick. quantity key feels like 91. so because of those high dew points feels like temperatures are running much higher than the normal temperatures. this was the center of hurricane isaac, slowly sitting and spinning back out to the west, and out to the east of that center, showers, thunderstorms, still bringing up lots of moisture from the gulf of mexico. even sucking it up from the atlanta as well. so that's why when we get the showers and get the thunderstorms right here, a lot of available moisture so all of that rain is coming down. anytime we're into one of these thunderstorms, there could be a threat of some flash-flooding, especially if it's not moving out of the way very quickly. so, again, this evening, most of
