Hope for change for the family of the Michael Brown and so many others. There is something new at the d. C. Jail. It is a library for the inmates. Only news4 cameras were inside when the city unveiled it today. The hope is that they will be able to get their ged the the library will cost the city about 290,000 a year. The inmates were not be permitted to gather near the shelves. Instead, a librarian will shuttle the books throughout the jail by cart. We do not give any books that would encourage or make Something Like drug use or violence popular or seem like a great way of life.

Any hopes of sledding during tomorrows winter storm on capitol hill has been dashed by the police. There was an effort to allow sledding on the hills around the capitol buildings. They asked for a onetime waiver to lift the ban through sunday but a statement was issued saying no to the request. Safety concerns. Every time it snows, people flock to the capitol for sledding before Capitol Police break it up and tomorrow will probably be no different. Its a great hill. Yeah. Its a shame not to let people take advantage of it. It is a shame. Its going to be snowing pretty good tomorrow from 8 00 in the morning until 4 00 in the afternoon. Its going to come down at a pretty good clip in and around the district. Lets show you how things are right now. What a difference it is from a couple of hours ago. We had that very dense fog, even a dense fog advisory. Fog or visibility is up to 3 miles. 45 degrees with some rain and look at the numbers around the region. Were still at 50 in fredericksburg 39 in hagerstown. The colder air is trying to filter in. Were seeing rain across our region from winchester leesburg frederick, washington down through waldorf. Notice the switchover here along the masondixon line up close to hagerstown. Some reports of snow there, would not be surprised to see sleet and snow around the martinsburg area too. You can see up towards the north, the poconos, right down through West Virginia and back towards the west where the snow is coming down an inch per hour right now in portions of kentucky ohio and West Virginia. Thats why everybody in the penk is under a winter storm warning, including our entire area right on through the day tomorrow. It includes everybody and any time we have a winter storm warning we could get over 4, 5, 6 inches of snow. Now, future weather, rain right around the 11 00 hour. By 3 00 a. M. Still all rain around the d. C. Area and areas to the south. Notice where the snow is. Winchester martinsburg, hagerstown sleet mixing in to the north but by about 6 00 everyone north and west of d. C. Is swechitched over to know. 6 00 a. M. We have a mixture of rain sleet and snow. The roads are going to be aokay early tomorrow morning. Do not get fooled by that. By 8 00 watch what happens here. By 9 45 everybody is seeing the snow and by 8 00 i do expect to see those roads starting to get covered in and around the d. C. Metro area. It will come very quick and well start to see the snowfall rates pick up very quickly as well. Theres 9 45. How about around 3 00. Still seeing that snow mostly down to the south now as it ends up to the north and by 6 30 its just about out of here. Who gets what . Yes, weve changed this a little bit. We had a wide 4 to 8 for everybody and feeling more confident of 6 to 8 back towards the west. Hagerstown is on the lower end. Over towards the leesburg area martinsburg, Gaithersburg Woodbridge and then 2 to 4 down to the south. I think there may be an extended period of sleet that could lower totals. Heads up down there. Your snow impact Road Conditions deteriorate. Slick spots early. I almost didnt want to put that word in there at all. Cancellations, well see those and the roads get treacherous later on in the evening hours. Heres the next couple of days and youll notice temperatures of 27 on friday morning. Could see more delays on friday morning. Saturday and sundays, highs in the low 40s. Not a bad weekend. Spring forward on saturday. And then the 50s come and it looks like they want to stay. They get what . They get bad. And this is going to be heavier snow than the fluffy stuff we had last time . It will for sure be heavier and wetter and then lighter as the day goes on. Nationals not thinking about snow. Of course not. Ill tell you what they are worried about as they prepare for your first spring training. Hi guys, help a new form of innovation is taking shape, bringing media and Technology Together for more people. Together is more wifi access in more places. Its a home you control with the touch of a finger. Its reimaging tv to give more people more choices. Its bringing technology and people together in ways you never thought possible. Comcast and time warner cable. Together is better for more people. Building aircraft, the likes of which the world has never seen. This is what we do. Thats the value of performance. Northrop grumman. So were talking snow and jason is talking baseball. Spring training. Trying to take you away from the bad weather for a while. Okay. The nationals first training will take place tomorrow. Max scherzer will start on the round. Also jason worth will not play. However, he did swing a bat for the First Time Since undergoing shoulder surgery back on january 9th. One thing the nats will have to get used to starting tomorrow the new basement to speed up the breaks between innings. They will last 2 25 unless its a nationally televised game it will last 2 45. The hitters will automatically be hit to first base. Unless its a foul ball or wild pitch, batter also have to keep one foot in the batters box. Some of the National Players i spoke with are not thrilled about these new changes. Im not a fan of it. I like to take my time and make sure i have a prepitch routine that i go through. But im going to have to learn quick in a hurry to keep my foot in the box and speed it up a little bit. Its not just standing out there to be on tv longer. If that were the case yeah id say get rid of it. Im not totally against shorting the pace of player or whatever but there are certain intracracies that it will be hard to take away. Cool video here. Two first overall draft picks, Steven Strassberg throwing to brice harper. Its the first time these two have ever faced each other. They have been in spring training for two weeks and position players, just one. I want to give you an idea harper said, im thankful hes on my team. I think we know who won that battle. First pitch tomorrow against the mets starts at 5 00 p. M. Max scherzer will get the start. Lets move on to college basketball. A win tonight would make both teams feel a lot better going into the atlantic tournament. Pick this one up in the first half we are tied at 25. That is trey porter doing the alleyoop. And then for three. He nails it. That would start a 154 colonials run. Later, for the bucket. To rfk stadium, d. C. United. 36 minute no score in this game. Gets that one past. The home crowd is loving it. Lets move on to the 55th men now. I dont know if you can do that. Its a lot of water on the field. United with a 21 victory tonight. A lot of rain. The head coach was ejected. Cold and wet, isnt it . Just call the game. It looks actually fun. Nah. Get sick. Another video gone viral. Researchers tried to use a gopro cam to study an octopus but the octopus had other ideas. It grabbed the gopro and turned it on the researcher himself. They then posted the photos and video online because thats what pretty much everybody does these days. That is pretty cool. Ill be posting this stuff up online too, take a look, snow to the north. This is 6 00 a. M. In the district again, roads are okay early. The snow moves in and it becomes heavy at times. D. C. North and west were talking 6 to 8 inches. South and 2 to 8 farther south. Wouldnt be surprised to see some totals higher steve from studio 6b in Rockefeller Center in the heart of new york city, its the tonight show starring jimmy fallon.
