Elsewhere, weve had quite a bit of sun all morning long and parts of Northern Virginia where a look at high temperatures this afternoon and maybe near 90 degrees, fredericksburg, mid80s, little bit further north, and then look to our north. Only going to be in the mid70s for highs this afternoon. Just north of washington, right in the metro area. Making the low 80s by midafternoon and near 80 right around the bay.

Vdot is reducing the route from three lanes to two. But he also took aim at the media. They are gathered together for the white house Correspondents Dinner without the presen and i could not possibly be more thrilled than to be more than 100 miles away from washington swamp. Well the president went on to race the medias record during his presidency. He said the media earned a quote, very, very big fat failing grade, end quote. Okay then. While the president was rallying supporters in in pennsylvania, here in d. C. , journalists, as he was mentioning were gathered for the white house Correspondents Dinner. With President Trump deciding to skip this years event. Also has you mentioned there, the dinner focussed on the importance of a free press to democracy, but it wasnt all serious. The headliner from the daily show had plenty of jokes with much of it focussed, yes, on the president. The leader of our country is not here. And thats because he lives in moscow. It is a very long flight. Itd be hard for vlad to make it. Vlad cant just make it on a saturday. As for the other guy, i think hes in pennsylvania because he cant take a joke. Ouch. Dagger. The White House Correspondents Association also handed out scholarships to 23 budding journalists. Good for them. And while the president was at that rally in pennsylvania, thousands of people gathered in downtown d. C. For another rally. In what is being called the peoples climate march. The march took aim at President Trumps environmental policies. Participants started in front of the u. S. Capitol and made their way to the white house before ending with a rally at the washington monument. And you wont to want miss this weeks edition of meet the press, chuck todd will have an exclusive interview with Vice President mike pence and exclusive joint interview with maine senator Susan Collins and angus king. Chuck going to join us for a ie the capitals, in a huge hole now in the clutch for the cup. They are down two games to none after losing to the penguins again last night. Penguins beat them 62 with a stomping. Yeah. Thumping. Thumping is a good way at least in the second half. The first half wasnt bad. They hope to bounce back with a win tomorrow night in game three. News 4s Carol Maloney has a look at what happened. Reporter the capitals dominated the first period here saturday night. But all their chances, they came up empty and haunted. The penguins chased braden from the net in the final period, and they crushed the caps, 62. Washington now in a deep hole in this series. And theyre headed to pittsburgh. The caps brung the post three times in this game, yet the penguins capitalized on their opportunity. The favorite spot, bradens glove. The net minder, polled after the second period. He wasnt as sharp as he can be for us. Hes a game changer for us. And so, when he didnt change the game, i just looked to change the mojo a little bit there. Playoffs are made out of big moments. And, you know, their goal, thats a big one, thats where your goalie needs to come up with a save. The penguins net the two on his replacement phillip as well. A disappointing defeat inspiring a players only meeting after. What was said in the locker room . None of your business. We can see our path to success. We played really, really well. Didnt get rewarded. Not going to get me to say whoa is me and i cant believe it. No, i mean hey, you make your own breaks and i truly believe that. And wrooer going to work our butts off to get one in our column. Reporter this could be the worst possible scenario for the caps. Theyre down two games, theres questions about their starting goal and theyre headed to pittsburgh for game three. Silver lining, its the best of seven series. But the caps only have five chances to win four games. I just feel the disappointment in carols voice. You know what i mean, it is there, but, you know, anything is possible. Last years nba finals down 31. Came back and won it. Youre right. The wizards, lets talk about basketball. They continued their quest today. This is uplifting. Its the first game, just think about what happened friday in atlanta. Wall dominated. What a win, they will face the Boston Celtics today. Its going to be a tough game. They split their regular Season Series at two games apiece. So, go, were rooting for you. Should be a good series. Location is everything when it comes to thunderstorms today. Tom is tracking your best chances to stay dry. Welcome back. Prince William County church is celebrating a major milestone this morning. Its big. Derek ward is live at First Mountain Zion Baptist Church with a look at how the congregation is marking 150 years today. A lot of people there showing up early. Reporter oh indeed, this parking lot has been full for about an hour. Since the 9 00 services are just beginning. People are even having trouble finding a place to park. That is because they are celebrating their 150th year in existence. Now you want to know how this church began, humble beginning just after the civil war. It was 1867 when the first 22 members, the founding members of church met in a log cabin which was actually in the rock hill area of stafford county. Now eventually, they built up a little bit, but they had a fire happen in the early 1870s, and theres some rift in the church. And that resulted in this location that we have here now. This church has been here since the 40s, the new building that we see up here now have been existence for the past 15, 16 years or so. It is growing with this area, and of course, now that they are celebrating a century and a half. The governor is here to help them. And we talked to the minister here about how excited and happy he is that the governor is coming. Take a listen. It is so pleasing to us to have the governor his busy schedule to come by and be a part of our celebration. Were excited to have him with us today. And to the celebration. So very much. Reporter indeed. Indeed it does. And so as i said, this service gets under way about years in existence. A lot of institutions cant say that this one has lasted. We are live, news 4, back to you.

On this point, congress obviously wasnt ready to begin the process of repealing obamacare. A little more than a month ago. But i think were close. And it is owing to the fact that youre seeing members of congress coming together to repeal the onerous taxes and penalties that people pay if they dont have insurance in obamacare to expand Health Savings accounts. That is a portion of Vice President mike pences interview just now on meet the press. He was talking about House Republicans effort to repeal and replace the meet the press chuck todd and listening to the Vice President there i think were close. How close . Close is just with a potential house vote. Close is just there that. Theyre trying to get us to the house essentially with a more conservative version of a bill that could never pass the senate. And so thats what makes it, i think, makes a lot of us that cover the stuff for a living wondering, okay, how do you bridge this divide . Its interesting here. Fascinating hedge, will there be a bill that redoes health care on the president s desk before the end of the year . Forget like, you know, next month and 100 days, and he said, he hopes so. But he wouldnt draw that line in the sand. And i think it just tells you to me, if you want to know the biggest lesson that this adni lesson that Congress Moves a at snails pace and dont throw out deadlines you cant meet. Lets talk about the first 100 days, in a recent interview, the president said this is more work than his previous job. One of the questions youre asking this week is is washington changing him or he changing washington. Probably both, right . My panel concluded, hands down, washingtons winning. Why . I would think you would say that right now, right . In the first 100 days they have had the upper hand. Whether its stopping obamacare, whether its frankly changing the president s mind on china. Changing the president s mind on nato. Holding him back from the brink on nafta. Vice president took a little issue with the idea that washingtons winning. He believes that they are making progress here in bringing change, but i think that the biggest struggle they have is that when you look at it, theres two ways to look at the first 100 days. One hand its a rampup and you dont want to be judged and you have your term remaining. If you look at the president. Things get even harder. And this has been a very difficult first 100 days for him, small legislative victories. How is this going to look in the next 18 months . Its not clear. Well talking with the Vice President , thats not the only exclusive you have on meet the press coming up today. No right, we have something that we used to see all the time on meet the press and havent, two senators from opposite side appearing on the set, together. And not overly disagreeing. Good. But, they actually talk about why it is actually so hard to find common ground. Some of the answers are obvious, but a few werent. Its great conversation. Looking forward to that. And more discussion on all of this and reminder, see meet the press every sunday at 10 30 right after news 4 today coming up in just about ten minutes. Thank you for stopping by. Take care of your allergies. Help me out here, man. Man. Can we i think we need some rainstorms. Can we clean up the pollen . Yeah, yeah, you need to get an endocrinologist apparently i do. Are you okay . Yeah, its going to clear up rain may be coming in later today. Later chance for rain the week. Pollen sufferers, hang in there. Relief is on the way. Right now cloudiness this morning. And Going Forward hour by hour, well have the cloud cover continuing to break up into the afternoon, partly cloudy, then the clouds will start filling back in again, the areas in green and yellow, those are some showers that may be popping up north and west of the metro area by mid to late afternoon, then 5 00 or 6 00 p. M. , theyre all gone and the cloud cover is breaking up. And mostly clear overnight tonight. Temperatures right now, mid70s, metro area and up near 80, Southern Maryland through Northern Virginia. That area make up to near 90 this afternoon. Great afternoon if for baseball. Mets and nationals first pitch 1 35, hovering in the low 80s through much of the game. Under a partly cloudy sky, only a slight chance of maybe an isolated shower toward the end of the game. Monday morng partly cloudy, and then noontime, temperatures into the upper 70s with dry roads and well have it, oh, cloudy by 5 00 p. M. On monday. Low 80s again. Then its monday night, may get showers and thundershowers. Temperatures by dawn tuesday into the low 60s. And well have the sunshine back during the day on tuesday. With afternoon highs reaching the upper 70s. Then on wednesday, lots of sunshine, beautiful day. Up near 70 degrees. And then as we get into thursday, looks like rain moving in. And some showers yes washing some of the pollen out of the air looks like thursday afternoon and evening. The only upper 60s in the afternoon. Then moderate, briefly heavy showers during the day on friday with highs in the upper 70s, maybe even a Little Thunder and lightning. That all should be ending by sunset on friday. Just in time for some dry weather to return for next weekend. Saturday, partly Sunny Afternoon highs next saturday near 7037 and then upper 60s near 70 a week f the low 70s, then gets summerlike again. Toward the middle part of the next week, that following week, day ten on tuesday. Maybe some showers, but afternoon highs into the mid80s.

The sweetest. 10 26 on this monday morning. Four things you need to know. Five dead, Dozens Injured after severe storms ripped through texas. Officials say three tornados touched down east of dallas. Officials will have a better scope of the damage as the sunrises. President trump took on the media at a rally last night in pennsylvania. Touted his record over his first 100 days in office. If you have to drive south, prepare for delays today. Vdot reducing the southbound side there from three lanes to two over the creek to make bridge repairs. Lets go caps.

Low 80s this afternoon. Little touch of summer as we say goodbye to april and hello may. Unbelievable. But not as hot as yesterday, and another warm day tomorrow too. Could get some passing thundershowers north of the metro area. Not severe. And maybe some more storms on monday night. So have the umbrella handy over the next couple of days. Meet the press is coming up next. And reminder wake up with us tomorrow morning, we start at 4 26. Until then, gre sunday evater this sunday, President Trump promised to change washington, but is it possible washington is changing him . This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier. The president fights to beat a 100day deadline he calls ridiculous with an outline on taxes. We are going to cut taxes and lify the tax code. That faces stiff opposition. Another attempt to repeal and replace obamacare. We think it is a really good step in the right direction. That is still short. And a promise to get rid of nafta. That turns into a decision to negotiate instead. Last night the president took a victory lap in a campaignstyle stop in pennsylvania. We are keeping one
