polar orbiting satellites, noaa 15, noaa 18 and noaa 19. as well as partner satellites from europe. because these are polar orbiting satellites, many will be orbiting the earth and crossing over the united states during the eclipse period and we will get images again of the lunar shadow in those images. it'll be fascinating. we can't wait to see the data. and bring up the next graphic, please, the next most important thing is what will the weather be. this is from national center for environmental information it shows as eclipse moves west to east across the united states, there is increasing likelihood of cloudiness in the areas of where you will be able to view the eclipse. this is due it many factors. for instance if you look at the western coast of oregon and southeastern states you see areas again that will have a higher likelihood of cloudiness because of the humidity they have on average. this is historical data. an forecast. just the historical average and percentage of cloud cover that you can experience or expect based on history on august 21 in afternoon. there are many o

look no further than the noaa center at howard university.r they offer the career weather camp where high school opportunities stay at dorms on howard campus for two weeks and do real weather experiences while meeting with some of the most brilliant minds in weather. >> each day is devoted to burning additional atmospheric concepts. we may have an interactive visit to the noaa's climate and weather center. >> making sure planes are safe in the sky to bringing your forecasts on the evening news, meteorologists wear many different hats. the first hat they wear is a graduation cap. i spent time at the university of maryland's atmosphere of science department where we talked about the new graduate program that just started four years ago. >> a population of students are interested in th didn't really have an outlook for that. somebody doesn't put a textbook in front of them, we have a deadline. answer all the questions in chapter nine. that's not what we do for a living. we have to work with other people, meet deadlines, ask questions and not be

at noaa. and at that time it was this amazing, beautiful, vibrant reef. there were sharks swimming around. cuttlefish that we saw. moray eels coming out. and the corals looked magnificent. >> reporter: karen shows us what eddy reef looked like months ago. those coral radiating with color. branches long and unbroken. the water clear as vodka. but a startling difference awaits when we go back under. >> i can remember this reef and the dive i had ten years ago. that diversity of corals. this is the same reef. but it's not the same reef. >> reporter: there's so much stuff floating around in the water, it's hard to see because it's basically coral carcass. >> on this coral, you see the full transition from right to left. floresing coral recently dead coral with algae and dead coral for quite some time. >> reporter: still, there are fish. there are colors. we see this giant clam, to a novice like me it's still beautiful. and that is part of the problem. >> what percent would you say is alive and thriving? >> around 80% to 90% of this reef is impacted. >> report

noaa says boaters, kite surfers or wind surfers are intentionally getting too close. >> we feel these are a result of carelessness and lack of self-control, actually. i think in some of these cases, people absolutely know better than to do what they are doing. >> noaa says it is keeping a watchful eye and plans to enforce fines. >>> for just the fourth time ever, skiers and snowboarders will be able to hit the slopes at squaw valley for the july 4th holiday. the lake tahoe resort is staying open for what it's calling an endless season. skra squaw valley received 715 inches of snow earlier this year fwrinter storms. officials say there is still 100 inches of snow at the summit. in addition, starting tomorrow, squaw valley is holding a freedom fest with three days of live music paying tribute to the jerry garcia band. there will also be a fireworks show on monday evening. >>> and if you are going to tahoe this holiday weekend, looking spectacular, nothing but sunshine and temperatures mild in the afternoon, 70s and 80s. here now, live look at sfo. we've got low cloud cover in place, sta

noaa's forecast predicting 11 to 17 named storms. colorado state expecting about 14.e average in any given year is about 12. now, for hurricanes noaa predicting five to nine. colorado state six and the average is six. the forecast for major hurricanes two to four from noaa and colorado state about two and the average is three. so as we look right now at the tropics, quiet, we're not talking about any hurricanes. hurricane season has officially begun today and will run through the end of november. so we'll be monitoring things for the month of june. some of the hot spots that we look for development that is time of year the gulf of mexico. that is one hot spot kathy that will continue to watch. right now things are quiet. but it only takes one powerful storm to make for a bad year. >> we saw that not that long ago. thanks, scott. i have to mention, scott, lucy said on that list of names there's never a lucy. >> there's never a lucy. when i used to go into little five and dime stores i never found my name on the bracelet. >> i'm sorry, lucy. >> hopefully this will cheer

we'll have a prediction on that from noaa later with our main forecast but 40's tonight means it's realle. it also means we could get cool overnight. enjoy it. get those window opened. winds coming in out of the west-northwest. that's a very dry direction for us. they have been a little bit gusty at times. only place picking up a gust right now of significance is that gaithersburg at 23. that breeze will be back tomorrow as well. here's what you can expect this evening. good luck trying to get a table outside if you're heading out for a evening dinner or happy hour. 77 degrees 87 o'clock. by 9 o'clock still comfortable at 72 degrees. we have to talk about the weekend, hurricane season and next chances for showers and that will be coming your way in just minutes. jim and sarah. >> thank you, sue. >>> a fire rages through a house in prince george's county. >> but a lack of wate firefighters down. what happened after the break. >> and the stretch between memorial day and if labor day, it's 100 days and the it's also the deadliest time period for teen drivers. we'll tell you why. that's com

i think in some of these cases, people absolutely know better than to do what they are doing. >> noaa a watchful eye and plans to enforce fines. >>> for just the fourth time ever, skiers and snowboarders will be able to hit the slopes at squaw valley for the july 4th holiday. the lake tahoe resort is staying open for what it is calling an endless season. skra squaw valley received over 700 inches from the winter storms. officials say there's still 100 inches of snow at the summit. in addition, starting tomorrow, squaw valley is holding a freedom fest with three days of live music paying tribute to the jerry garcia band. there will also be a fireworks show monday evening. sounds like a great time, right, drew? >> yeah, it's going to be picture perfect if you're going to tahoe over the weekend. lots of sunshine, mild temperatures. where it's not picture perfect right now, sfo. your arrival delays right now, 78 minutes. you may have some issues later on today, as it kind of has a domino effect with flights getting in and out of the airport. 50st the name of the game from the coast, to th

i think in some of these cases people absolutely know better than to do what they are doing. >> noaa is now keeping a very watchful eye and it does plan to enforce fines. >>> for just the fourth time ever, skiers and snowboarders are going to be able to hit the slopes at squaw valley for the july 4th holiday. the lake tahoe resort is staying open for what it is calling an endless season. it certainly seems like that. squaw valley received 714 inches of snow earlier this year from the winter storms. officials say there's still 100 inches of snow at the summit. in addition, starting tomorrow, squaw valley is holding a freedom fest with three days of live music paying tribute to the jerry garcia band. there will also be a fireworks show monday evening. >>> and if you are heading to tahoe over the holiday weekend, expect tons of sunshine and really mild temperatures. perfect forecast. outside we go! live look. this is the south bay right now. san jose, good morning, waking up to gray skies right now. the majority of the region has a very similar picture like that, and a lot of 50s on the

we have a series of websites noaa's data. we hope you have clear skies. we hope you have great viewing. we are excited about it. many of you will be traveling to find locations were you can best view this. many of those will be in the national parks. we hope many of you will come and enjoy it in your national parks. it is a special day for everyone . this is your opportunity to create your experience related to the eclipse that you can one day perhaps share with your family or grandkids. where can you see it in the national parks? it just so happens 20 national parks are exactly in the area of two talladega. totality. from west to east the first park, will wrap up several hours later at fort sumter in south carolina. all of the parks in the lower 48, they will experience the eclipse at some level. check with the local parks website to determine exactly what that is going to be. in the happening national parks related to the eclipse? a lot of specific activities are happening. we are working and partner with a lot of communities including nasa, the smithso

. >> the official numbers from noaa did come out. hurricane season starts today and lasts through november 30th. here is what noaa is saying. 11 to 17 named storms. 5 to 9 of those hurricanes. of those 2 or 4 >> category 3, 4, or 5. we know it only takes one storm, but the months that we are more likely to see one on the eastern seaboard, well, the development would be around the cape verde islands or the caribbean. august, september, and october. so those are the months that we are again more likely to see something more locally. we will be tracking this. you want to track it yourself, too. we have more information on the nbc washington app. make sure you download it. you can have everything at your fingertips. we even have links that show you what you can do to prepare. hurricane preparedness on the website as well. we'll talk about more of this coming up next. let's check in with traffic. melissa mollet. >> thank you, sheena. taking a look at the beltway. inner loop and outer loop, everything has cleared. nice and clear inner loop

we'll take a look at what is expected and anticipated by noaa. are your weather headlines. >> more top stories at 10679. thirty, investigators in prinlts looking into what sparked a house fire in brandywine. broe out around noon on cross keys road. the flames were shooting from the roof. here's the problem there wasn't a hydrant nearby. no one was injured. no one was home at the time of fire. surveillance video shows the suspects right here breaking into the store prying open the atm and stealing minute. it morning back on may 12 at a store in the 400 block of massachusetts avenue northwest. call police if you have any information that could help that crime. in virginia, detectives from both newark arrested this man is teak ash medicine and charged with him with prescription fraud. he was providing prescriptions and pain meds without performing the necessary exams. lower income residents in d.c. can get free security cams in d.c., that is if they qualify. the mayor made that announcement in a press conference today. alexandra limon has details on

noaa says that's a giant solar eruption. they released this video.happened june 19th, but they are just posting it now because it's cool, that's why. it isn't posing a threat, but noaa does say that its ability to track potential dangers in space weather is becoming more and more of their focus as it can disrupt our lives. we're learning more and more. something to keep an eye on. nice video. thankfully, it's not going to harm us. temperatures right now, most of us about a degree or two cooler from yesterday. where's that put us? mid to upper 50s from richmond at 55, oakland, hayward at 59. let's look at the rest of the neghborhoods, 60 san jose, antioch, pleasanton 56. santa rosa at 55. pacifica 52 degrees. santa cruz, cloudy this morning. you'll see the most sunshine at the coast today. the rest of us could be cloudy. exercising, clouds to sun, yard work, nice all day with a playir the extreme sunshine, 15 minutes or less to burn. winds pushing all that cool air and the potential for drizzle our way the next couple of hours. tree pollen, grass poll

interaction between nasa and noaa is working pretty well. >> thank you mr. chairman. >> senator capito. >> thank you mr. chairman and i apologize. think i'm going to ask you repeating question but i do want to hear your answer. most of our nation's civil space assets for commercial enterprises are housed in the lower orbit leo weather in particular. the ability to service these assets rather than replace them at potentially millions of dollars without the loss of public safety and critical scientific data. dan coats the director of national intelligence recently testified before the senate armed services company that china and russia are developing developing -- our satellites in low earth orbit. the president's budget proposes no funding for the restore-l program. he is no more important than ever now i think to bolster the resilience of our assets for enhancing nasa's capabilities and lowering operational costs by demonstrating the abilities to refuel the satellites? >> what we are doing is we think our job is to develop the technology to allow those missi

noaa will update their outlook in early august just prior to the peak of the season. in new york, julie ban dares, fox news. >> we got off to an early start. >> we d. every once in a while you find the stornls forming outside of the six-month season and we had tropical storm arlene already in april. the storms don't have a calendar themselves so they don't know. >> they'll find some warm water and a little circulation and they'll >> june through usually november 30. >> remember the one year when we were still getting tropical storms in february. >> we went through the alphabet. >> we went through the names and they had to start over with the greek alphabet. >> i hope we don't have that h this year. >> i feel the same year, an above average season expected. the peak of the season is you can r usually august and september. the peak activity right around september 11 typically. we were looking at a beautiful evening tonight and temperatures, while the district is at three greece, we are seeing some places alreadyeing y going to start, though, with a look at some of the 2

can you talk a little bit more about the roles that nasa and noaa play in understanding and predicting space weather. >> mckenna break it into the research side and operation side. nasa is responsible for helping develop the research models that help us predict these activities and noaa has the operationa aspect of the warnings and telling us when we should expect to flare or storm. >> are you confident in our space weather infrastructure. >> i think we are doing what we can do today. we will see, if an event occurs. i'll tell you the other thing about space weather is are humans. we worry about our human perspective and we worry will go deeper in space. i believe were getting the tools we need to make our models better. the models are just that. they are models and until we exercise them with an event we hope doesn't happen, i think we are as good as we can be with what we know that we continue to learn every mission we fly answers one question but causes more. that's the challenge. i think interaction between noah is working pretty well. >> thank you. >> thank you. i apologize for no

we'll take a look at noaa's expecting upwards of 17 that's a little bit above average, five to nine whichl become hurricanes and two to four which will become major hurricanes, at least a category three so we'll see how we do and it's worth a mention we did already see arlene rare april tropical storm that formed over the atlantic. the north atlantic no less, very rare for that to happen. let's talk thermal peeks. we're in the middle of what we like to call solar summer where the solar radiation is at its peak. then you get in lag that takes place. the warmer air temperature comes our way in july and the warm midwest water temperatures into august because there's that delayed reaction. air will heat up more readily than the water will. kind of like waiting for that slow boil from your pot on the stove. that's why the water temperature is at that kind of a lag but that's where we start to peak with these kinds of values. that's also the reason that you'll start to see a lot more activity in the tropics toward august, early september because you're at peak of the open ocean water. with that

. > >> they will be meeting the noaa to talk about ways to crack down on boaters.ncy said that their goal is not to put someone in jail or hit them with a fine but they want people to be aware to keep a safe distance from whales which is about 300 feet or -- that's about the length of a football field. >> yeah. stay faraway. yeah. >>> we have to get close to sal. it is light so far. >> it is light. we don't have a lot going on. i'm just making sure -- when we say -- it's great, i look over here to make sure that something hasn't popped up as i said that. so far, so good. we are looking at a little bit of slow traffic on the pass though. just a little bit of slow traffic on interstate 205 coming through. westbound 205 as you drive in. you will see that traffic is going to be a little slow. for the most part it seems normal. i kicked of thought it would be completely light. these things do surprise me sometimes. 580 at the pass. chp is telling drivers that it could be just a little windy up there. that advisory was put up last night. they haven't lifted yet but hopef

i would have to follow up with you, or the person from noaa on the earlier panel could probably answer that question in more detail. >> perhaps one possibility -- angela, are you there? angela speck? >> i'm here. >> do you have an answer to that, because you're thinking about the shadows and atmospherical effects a lot. >> right. so there's a couple of different things. one of the things is that, you know, we're now at the point where looking at the shadow and understanding exactly where it's going, being able to see it from the outside and the inside at the same time is going to have an impact on how we're looking at atmospheric effects. but i'm not sure, but i think your question was the shadow itself. i think what it is going to do is cast an idea that was put forward for how we determine the shape of the shadow. so there's some interesting effects that happen to do with the fact that as the other angela said, you've got these craters and mountains on the moon that give rise to bailey's beads, but they also mean that you get this interesting visual effect, that the shadow of the moo

. >> noaa released the numbers, national oeceanic at moss fearig administration. a weak el nino or possibly nonexistent one has warmer water conditions in the pacific. it will affect the atlantic. it will either hinder development or help it. we expect a slightly above normal hurricane season. 11-17 named storms, 5-9 hurricanes. of those 2-4 could storms. category 3, 4, 5. as far as the development is concerned over the cape verde islands, our time of year, when i say our time of year, i mean when the east coast is more vulnerable to a storm, we could see it more likely in august, september, or october because of where they develop, caribbean over by cape verde. they take on the past where the east coast is more likely to see it. those will be the main months we're watching. download the nbc washington. you'll have all of the information on that. chuck and i are back on that in a bit with a closer look at your forecast and the weekend coming up. >> thank you, sheena. >>> developing this morning, a 16-year-old girl charged with killing her uber triefr in a chicago

, fish and wildlife, because we're going to look at the trout, noaa is going to look at the salmon, if you irrigate out of it, bureau of reclamation, and if you have a dam, probably army corps of engineers. there are four different bureaus and if it crosses tribal land, probably b.i.a. in it, so you're going to have four different bureaus that have different priorities and in order to come up with a plan, you're not going to have -- the plan won't be reconciled between the bureaus, so we're going to have to look at how to be more joint and a lot of that is putting the assets where the preponderance of in the case of blm, the preponderance of land in blm is out west, so we are looking at reorganizing to do just that, push the assets where they should be. >> thank you, mr. secretary. i know i'm out of time here, but we'll have questions to follow up on, arkansas valley conduit issue. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you, senator. senator manchin? >> thank you, mr. chairman, thank you, secretary, for being here. first of all, west virginia is different than being out west, but we're stil

president trump has yet to name administrators to nasa and noaa -- two agencies that play a major role in tracking storms and climate change. and in detroit, michigan, a judge has dismissed all charges against water rights activists knknown as the "homrich 9," finding they were denied their right to a speedy trial after prosecutors spent nearly three years pursuing misdemeanor disorderly conduct charges against them. in july of 2014, the activists peacefully blockaded a facility run by the contractor homrich, which was hired by detroit to cut off the water to thousands of homeowners who were behind on their bills. the shutoffs came as the city more than doubled the price of water over a decade, and as detroit suffered through what was then the largest municipal bankruptcy in u.s. history. and those are some of the headlines. this is democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. we begin today in saudi arabia, where king salman has deposed his nephew as crown prince and replaced him with his son, mohammed bin salman bin abdulaziz, who is now first in line
