it's one of those big -- >> yeah, comforting. i feel good about flying. >> you guys, back to what we're getting now. it's interesting, we get back to december when we picked up an inch and a half, our biggest snow in baltimore this year. even if we get you know 3" out of this that's our biggest snow of the year. but we think back to last year, 2, 3, 4" is not a huge amount of snow but you know, it will make roads slick tomorrow night. evening commute a headache. try to duck out tomorrow if you can. >> okay. >> i was giving you the excuse. >> safety first. >> you know. >> cold night. cold january night jamie. it must feel like kansas city all of a sudden back here. 24 degrees bwi. this is january, the heart of january and it just kind of makes you wish that you still had -- i was hoping you would hand that to me jamie. thank you for throwing me my clicker. we had some high, thin clouds today in baltimore, no precipitation with these, but often an indication, you get a better view here in d.c. watch these high cirrus clouds blowing in at a pretty good clip. that's often an indication of some high thin clouds, it doesn't create the weather but gives you an idea what is coming our way. that is an approaching winter storm out of the south. now temperatures, frigid state- wide, cold day below average by about 5 to 10 degrees, 21 now in the east, 24 baltimore and 20 at dulles and i want to show you some of the wind chills across the region, teens, i mean it is a chilly chilly night. so we know as the snow comes in it will stick tomorrow afternoon. clouds will begin to roll nhs the morning. we still got a generally clear sky over most of central maryland, that will change. the snow is moving at at an, the overall system is moving north relatively slowly. that's why we think we can get in the morning and even the lunch hour, fine on the roads around here, but that will begin to change. snow eventually creeping into richmond by midday. as we go into the afternoon snow showers will begin to fall here. you see a winter mix, the storm actually beginning to reintensify over the carolinas. so bottom line is high pressure will keep us dry for another maybe 12, 16 hours, then the snow begins to come in. our future caster, here it is, 5:00 tomorrow evening, the chance for snow showers will begin and peak intensity will come in between probably 5:00 and 2:00 a.m. so a brief shot of snow you know, the evening tomorrow night right through about 1, 2:00 in the morning. the weak of this, most of the snow will be, the highest totals will be jersey and places like wilmington, delaware, delaware coast. we're still gonna get some of this though out of this particular storm. keep massaging these snowfall totals, really a tricky system to call because it will be right along the coast. right now we still think a 2 to 3" range, you quickly get in a 4" range maybe eastern harford county, cecil county and kent county over on the eastern shore and northern delaware probably gets you in a 5" range from wilmington back through jersey and atlantic city. tomorrow will be a tough day to try to get over to atlantic city to do a little gambling, that's what we're thinking right now for our snowfall totals. maybe 2008 tweet a bit in the morning and get the latest. overnight 23, cloudy skies, stays cold. tomorrow first half of the day we're fine, never get above freezing, so as this late day snow showers come in they stick to the roads. you know what that means, a tough evening commute, especially south towards dc where the snow will begin first and creep up out of the south in the north in the baltimore and beyond. 24 tomorrow night. snow gets steadier tomorrow night. a pretty wide range, closer to d.c., howard county south 2". you are watching from harford cecil county closer to 4 or 5, a bit of a range. but nothing like what our friends in jersey and new york will see in this thing. after that late day storm, sunny and cold january weather on tap. a few flurries wednesday, we never get above freezing thursday or friday. wash the car maybe towards sunday this weekend. all right cell phone?
