Plus, the Funeral Plans are coming together for justice antonin scalia, but his death is igniting a debate that has our area divided. And a lot to talk about this afternoon with storm team4. Doug and veronica tracking whats next on our winter we breaking right now at 4 30, Montgomery County police are trying to figure out who is behind a Home Invasion in rockville.

Were learning more about the Funeral Plans for Supreme Court justice antonin scalia. Its scheduled for saturday morning at 11 00 at the basilica of the National Shrine of the inmack lat conception. The funeral is open for friends and family. A private in an unannounced location. A lot of talk around town about the future of the Supreme Court and who will replace justice scalia. Joining us is whurs troy johnson. Troy, some of your listeners have strong feelings about his legacy. Here is what they said about comments he said about a case that came before the court. Youre looking at the passing of justice scalia, youre probably losing the most conservative justice on the court. He definitely wasnt a friend of what we would call liberals, whether its africanamericans or people in the lgbt community, but he did, you know, try to protect the constitution. Thats malcolm who i spoke to, hes from hyattsville. Theres a lot of strong feelings because theres a sense from folks that Justice Scalias hard line while he was on the bench really had a negative impact on africanamericans. Act in 2013, before the court he said it was a racial entitlement that ignores the white population. The Voting Rights act of 19 6 obviously enables africanamericans to vote and not be disenfranchised. Just as recent as december making disparaging remarks about africanamerican students suggesting theyd fare better at less challenging schools. Those kinds of things are resonating with the people that i talk to, and they kind of think back to, you know, who nominated him, president reagan and the Lasting Legacy that president reagans term had on africanamericans. So there are a lot of things people certainly not sad to see him pass away, but there are certainly concerns about what he did on the court. When president s nominate a Supreme Court justice it has ramifications for decades to come. Gr president obama should nominate a new justice. Again malcolm is speaking for several of troys listeners. Its interesting that people want to stop the president from doing his job. Thats a little disheartening and disingenuous to those who want to claim that theyre all about the constitution. Then they should look no further than to see that the president has the constitutional right and responsibility to replace Supreme Court justices. And malcolm talking about something that a lot of people were saying to me. Its the president s constitutional obligation to make this decision while hes in office. Theres nothing that says your term ends after three years. Your term ends after four years. Theres already been a mandate in terms of what people were telling me in the last election when he was reelected. So they say that they understand the politics behind it because if there was a republican president in office and the situation was reversed, wed expect the same kind of conversations, but they certainly kind of feel like this is the same deal with throughout both of his terms. And, of course, the way it works is the president nominates someone. Right. The senate has the authority and responsibility to confirm or not confirm that person. Absolutely. Well see how it plays out. Its going to be very interesting. Thank you, troy. Absolutely. And now your storm team4 forecast. Quiet weather right now. We do have sunshine across the area. Temperatures not bad either. Running just a few degrees above average but get ready for cooler conditions tomorrow and then were going to see a lot of warming coming this weekend. Right now storm team4 radar scanning the area. Dry across the area right now. Its been a little breezy. Well see that wind settle down and with again very few clouds out there. Temperatures will really start dropping but i dont think thats going to happen until late, late that we could see those icy patches set up once again on some area roads, especially the secondary roads. Well watch for that early tomorrow morning. Bus stop by afternoon tomorrow, 39. Some ten degrees cooler than today. Calling it chilly for tomorrow and, yes, you heard doug say earlier that we are looking at the potential for another storm system. Maybe that transition from rain to snow. Here is the reason why. Were so frustrated with winter. Moderately frustrated now, we go to high by the time we get to the midpart of next week. Weve gotten a lot of snow. D. C. Picking up close to 22 inches. Dulles hit 33. Bwi Baltimore Thurgood there close to 32 inches with two sizable storms but a lot of little storms.

As you prepare to file your tax return, you may be eligible for tax breaks you didnt know about. Consumer reporter susan hogan joins us from the newsroom to tell us about that. Thats right. Charities, you probably count on a tax deduction. Theres a couple things to keep in mind. Charitable contributions are only deductible if you itemize them and to be deductible you must have made donations to qualified organizations. Payments to individuals are never deductible. When it comes to volunteering you cannot deduct the cost of your time but you can make a deduction if you incurred some kind of cost so consider that as a deductible. You can certainly deduct your mileage, you can deduct the cost of materials. Maybe you cooked for a soup kitchen or something. Those things are all deductible. Thats right. Now, charitable contributions is just one tax break. Tonight on news4 at 5 00, we have four more tax breaks you dont want to miss. Thank you very much. We dont want to miss that. Thanks, susan.

He returned the cards, the credit cards and the license, but then he says that he or she was going to keep the cash in order to buy marijuana as well as keeping the metro cards because fares had gone up. Flaherty is taking all of this in stride. The note was basically im a good guy, but im also kind of giving you the middle finger and im keeping all anything that would have any currency behind it. This is something my friends and i laughed about quite a bit. The note also said the person was keeping the wallet because he found the wallet was kind of cool.

Mainly rain for tuesday, right now temperatures will be high enough and the ground temperatures, too so fairly warm ground. That means we stay clear right now of some of the icing or anything getting too nasty on area roads. For wednesday the colder air moves in.
