Thats two storm systems, two pieces of energy coming together, and as this phasing takes place thats when this noreaster will become the main storm and really begin to get stronger, really begin to deepen.

We zoom in here. Theres a lot of very heavy snow moving through parts of massachusetts down into connecticut and right through long island. Actually there has been several cases of thunder snow this evening mainly up from long island right up into the southern section of connecticut right around hartford.

I really dont know what the people down here are going to do. If we lose this, i dont know what were going to do. This is like the only thing we have here. Reporter the powerful blizzard was created after two storms, one from the west, the other from the south, merged. Airlines canceled thousands of flights. I was in the other airport, jfk. They rebooked me and sent me over here. I got here. Now they said this one is canceled. So now they have me booked for a flight tomorrow night if flights are going. Reporter the heaviest snowfall is expected overnight with wind gusts possibly reaching 75 Miles Per Hour. In new york jamie colby, fox news. You saw the blizzard taking its toll on travelers, the impacts felt all the way here to the d. C. Region, been a long day for many people faced with canceled flights, trains and buses. Fox 5s maureen umeh with that story. Most flights north are grounded, amtrak suspended service between new york and boston and mega bus is temporary halting trips between certain northern routes. Its been a very frustrating day for a lot of travelers. An army of weary passengers just try to get to new york and points beyond this friday night finding travel a challenge to say the least. Its been pretty rough. My travel started at 5 00 this morning in colorado when i got notified my flight into philadelphia was canceled. Reporter the new england blizzard by early afternoon forcing amtrak to suspend service between new york and boston. I literally just hopped out of a car two minute ago. Im really hoping its going. Im trying to get home to massachusetts. I was flying into hartford, connecticut, but theyve canceled my flight. Theyve shut down the airport in albany, new york as well. Im going to take a train to new york city and do my best to get homes when the roads open up.

Amtrak scheduled trips to new york running on schedule tonight, a bit of good news to this very challenging travel day. Lets take a closer look at the situation in boston. Reporter heather hedges from our sister station there continues our Team Coverage tonight of the blizzard of 2013. Reporter we are right on beacon hill right down the street from the statehouse right now. You can see the snow is already piling up and this is only the beginning. I want to give you a point of reference where i am in case youre familiar with boston. This is Boston Common behind me which is the major park in the city. A lot of people walk through Boston Common. Its a little bit of a short cut to get to different sections of the city. So plows have tried to keep Boston Common plowed throughout the night, but now visibility is poor. The snow is starting to pick up and the wind is really a big issue, too. As a matter of fact, i want to show you right here this is the statehouse. There are two flags there you can see or maybe you cant. Visibility is very poor. The winds have been clocked at 49 miles an hour and thats expected to go up dramatically. Over here in front of the statehouse there is a plow there now. You can see its trying to keep the sidewalks clear. As for the roads, though, right now theres a state of emergency and cars are not allowed to travel in massachusetts at all. So the only way people can get around at this point is walking. In fact, i see some people right there by the crosswalk and they are probably walking to go out. Ive actually encountered a lot of people who are taking this as a day off and enjoying a friday night where they havent had to work today and theyre going out to bars and restaurants. There are a few bars open, but a lot of restaurants are not open. The mayor of boston has really asked all nonessential employees to stay home and tonight the Mayors Office is doing their best to stay on top of this storm. They have a 24 hour hotline to help folks. They say theyve had about 2,800 calls and the mayor staff will sleep over at city hall with cots set up and about 30 people, maybe more, are anticipated to stay there through the night, work in shifts and get a little rest on the cots there. So as for the scene here now, its still building up as you can see, but im certainly very wet and ive only been outside in the past three minutes since ive been speaking with you. Were gearing up for an even longer and much wetter night. Thats the latest in boston. Im heather hedges, fox 5 news.

Find out whats slowing down the search plus a psychiatrist weighs in on the suspected killer live next. Plus a local church left in the cold, find out what thieves stole and how the congregation is responding. And later on the news edge councilman jim graham tells fox 5 why he deserves to stay on the d. C. Council after a questionable ethics report, why hes firing back at a fellow councilman at 11 00. The ocean looks angry in the sea coast town of situate, massachusetts. Ive been to massachusetts once, forgive me all you mass natives. The snow will fall all night long in the blizzard of 2013 as the 10 continues. we are continuing to follow a developing story that the entire nation is watching, heavy snow now slowing the mountain manhunt for a former a cop wanted for three california murders. Police across california, nevada and mexico are searching for Christopher Dorner accused of declaring war on police. Fox 5s will thomas is tracking the investigation for us tonight. Police say this guy wants revenge against the l. A. Police department because he was fired in 2008 for making false statements. Tonight well lay out where things stand with this big search and then well bring in a forensic psychologist to weigh in about the suspected killer. Heres the most recent available image of the former cop turned suspected killer, a surveillance image from a motel near los angeles taken five days ago. Now police from all over Southern California are fighting heavy snowfall trying to forge aheadn theearch forchristodorner. Well continue searching until either we discover that he left the mountain or we find him, one of the two. Investigators say the mountain where dorners burned out truck was found is still the main focus. Theres a lot of cabins up there abandoned. We want to make sure he didnt find a place to hide out for the night. Once we exhaust that then well continue to reevaluate what well do next. Police say dorner began his deadly rampage on sunday when he shot and killed monica quan and her fiance sitting in their car at their l. A. Condo complex. Quan was the daughter of a retired lapd captain who represented dorner at the hearing that led to his firing for making false statements. Detectives also believe dorner ambushed two officers on routine patrol in riverside just outside of l. A. They were at a stoplight. One died. The other was seriously hurt. Were very hearty residents in the San Bernadino mountains. Many people here are armed. My fear has actually been not that panic would ensue but more than someone up here would see something and take the law into their own hands. Police say the killings were carried out in an act of revenge for getting fired outlined in a manifesto dorner posted online. Dorner writes he knew he would be vilified by the lapd but that unfortunately this is a Necessary Evil that i do not enjoy but must partake and complete for substantial change to occur within the lapd and reclaim my name. He went on to write, i will utilize every bit of small arms training, demolition, ordnance and Survival Training ive been given. You have misjudged a sleeping giant. Police say hes threatening cops, their families and anyone who gets in his way. Forensic psychiatrist dr. Lisa van susteren is with us tonight. Good to have you here, doctor. Good evening, will. He writes things like its a Necessary Evil and youve misjudged a sleeping giant. What do you make of that . First of all, hes in a category by himself with others who are mass murderers, but people like this will justify anything they do. They have a sense of justice that is a personal one that is based primarily on a sense of having been humiliated. They rationalize anything they do as a result of that. Does this sound like a man who might eventually surrender if hes cornered so he can continue his rants from jail, for instance . He does not sound like a man who will surrender. My hunch is of course, we would like him simply obviously to turn the gun on himself before someone else is hurt, but i think whats most likely what we call suicide by cop. He will go out, take another shot at other policemen in some hours or days and then maybe be killed at that point. Do you think dorner would be legally insane and therefore avoid being prosecuted . I do not. Hes not like other cases weve seen in aurora, james holmes, Jared Loughner in arizona. You could see these people were absolutely psychotic. They had these weird smiles, presented themselves in very strange ways. This guy has primarily what is called a character disorder. Of course, its gotten much worse than that over time since he had this experience leafing the police force. Its like a small leaving the police force. Its like a small fire that turns into a raging fire. So what i suspect is that this is something that is not a Mental Illness as such, not a psychotic illness but a character disorder. Well, dr. Lisa van susteren, thanks for coming in. The search for the accused killer will continue, of course. Some cold hearted thieves have plunged an arnold, Maryland Church into the deep freeze. Police say they stole four heat pumps from the back of the gloria day lutheran church. It will cost thousands to replace. Audrey barnes has this story from the newsroom. Pastor Tom Williamson says rather than be mad or sad about the thefts he wants the community to take a different approach and hes chosen a unique way to get the word out. The marquee outside the gloria day church on College Parkway and arnold says it all. Pray for those who stole our heat pumps. One of the units was here. Reporter three huge 7 1 2 ton units and a 2 1 2 ton unit vanished last week. Here is the heat pump that they didnt get to. Reporter replacing them wont be cheap. The estimate weve had so far is close to 80,000 president of we still havent heard from 80,000. We still havent heard from our Insurance Company what kind of part of that they may reimburse us, but its a financial hit either way. Reporter the temperature in the church classroom used by Community Groups like girl scout troop 1808 is now 60 degrees. Other parts of the church are even colder. The temperature here in the Fellowship Hall is just 55 degrees. Community groups are still using this room, but theyre wearing their coats when they do. Pastor Tom Williamson is out of town but spoke with us by phone about this cold hearted crime. For me the sad part is all the places where that money could be going that now its going to go into bricks and mortar kind of stuff. Reporter the churchs outlay will be about 15,000, money that could have bought more desks for children at their Sister Church in el salvador or paid the tuition of some of the kids there. They also have Sister Churches in madagascar and slovakia which they wont be able to help as much either, but rather than being mad, sad or angry pastor tom is asking people to do what churches do best. What i wanted to get to the congregation and to the community was a message that we pray for those who do us harm and we dont live in a society that does that naturally. Investigators say there were several other thefts like this this summer and spring. When the new heat pumps are installed, the church will secure them to a concrete slab and build a wire fence around them. Coming up next a horrific story in player, a mother accused of killing her in maryland, a mother accused of killing her own toddler.

New york might make it out of this without too much trouble, but the story is much different further north. Reporter dan bowen is live with us now in stanford, connecticut. Whats the situation there right now . Reporter absolutely. Were about 28 miles northeast of new york city. In the tristate area, new york, new jersey, and connecticut were getting the worst of it. Look behind me. You can see where Connecticut Governor dan malloy issued a state of emergency in connecticut and signed an executive order prohibiting any traffic on the roadways because he felt conditions would deteriorate overnight to a point it would be dangerous to have too much traffic on the roads. You can see the plow there, that one vehicle probably not supposed to be out. Those plows have been out all afternoon and evening at stanford. They started working earlier putting down salt, but theres still a slick layer out there. Earlier about 5 00 i took a measurement of just about how deep the snow was. It was about 5 inches then. Now lets go ahead and look to see how far it is. Were about 7 inches, 7 1 4 inches now, so certainly significant from a few hours ago. Theyre saying it could be up to 2 feet overnight. So really were just getting started. With a blizzard its not just snow you have to worry about. Its wind gusts, gusts up to 60 Miles Per Hour, hurricane strength gusts potentially could knock down power lines, affect some of the Electrical Equipment in the area. So thats why elected officials and power officials are very worried about all types of different situations that could happen with this blizzard. Let me ask you more especially with the power situation. Your area or that community there also went through sandy several months ago. Has everybody recovered from that . Have you guys all cleaned up from that or are there still lasting ramifications and now here comes this blizzard . Reporter youre right. New york, new jersey and connecticut have just started to get some of that federal money in to help rebuild and repair from hurricane sandy. I was with a gentleman yesterday in long island in suffolk county. We were in his basement. He hadnt finished repairs from flooding that occurred with hurricane sandy. He also told me look, ive spent all the money i have trying to fix my basement. If this blizzard comes and knocks me out further, he said i dont know what im going to do. He is one of thousands of residents in similar situations. Let me ask you about the residents youve talked to tonight. Was there a big rush everybody heading to the stores to pack up on supplies and how long are people expected to stay off the streets and in their homes . Reporter well, the storm is expected to blow through here by tomorrow morning. There have been a lot of people who pack up on supplies. One gentleman said look, this is new england and the northeast. The difference is he said this is the first blizzard weve had in up to two years. Maybe people had relaxed a bit, but he was ready. He was actually plowing his neighbors yard, his yard and somebody elses down the street, but he said im going to have to go to work in the morning. He worked in the heating business. Hes one of the few who probably will head to work tomorrow on a saturday morning. Now the mom in me will come out. Put a hat on. Reporter thank you, yes, maam. Now a story you saw first on fox 5, weve learned two Prince Georges County Police Officers scheduled for trial next week in an offduty kidnapping case have agreed to plead guilty to assault. Both officers indicted last june in Charles County where they were accused of abducting two teenagers holding them against their will apparently in an effort to teach them a lesson. Fox 5s paul wagner reports. Reporter this is a letter sent to the parents of one of the teens held against his will. It arrived just before christmas and says Christopher Perry and michael rowe agreed to plead guilty to Second Degree assault and their son had the right to address the court at sentencing. This morning we spoke by phone with Billy Anderson, the father of the 16yearold who said he was handcuffed, beaten and driven around in a marked Prince Georges County police cruiser. Once i received the letter i was very surprised. The officer admitted what jl said took place. Reporter Billy Anderson said his son is still dealing with the aftermath of a traumatic experience. Hes very scared. He is nervous. Sometimes he cant sleep at night. Sometimes he wakes up in cold sweats from nightmares and flashbacks. Reporter last June Anderson and his son who we agreed to call jl showed us where the officers took the teen and ordered him to walk down a dirt road and place his chin on a fence before the officers drove away. They never said anything to you about why they were detaining you . No, sir. Reporter then when you got here and you were told to walk forward, what was going through your mind here . I dont know. Was he going to hit me in the back of my head again or was he going i was thinking hes going to shoot me or taser me. There was so much stuff going through my head. Jl said the offduty officers came after he and two of his friends as they left a Memorial Day Party at this house. The house owner accused them of stealing alcohol. Jl denies it. Jl says he was tackled and handcuffed with another friend before the friend slipped out of his cuffs and got away. When the indictment was announced, Prince Georges County police made this announcement. Prince georges county Police Department is committed to ethical and professional policing both on duty and off duty and we have very High Expectations of our officers conduct while theyre wearing the uniform and when they are not. On tuesday in court Billy Anderson says he wants an apology from the officers and see them punished for what they did to his son.

Rowe and perry were placed on administrative leave with pay, but their Police Powers have been revoked. In the fox 5 newsroom im paul wagner.

A power outage that knocked out service to thousands of people in Prince Georges County and parts of the district blamed on a down tree, caused a transformer to overload in a Major Shopping Center in Seat Pleasant leading to evacuations. Fox 5s Tom Fitzgerald has the story. Reporter at the Addison Plaza Shopping Center in Seat Pleasant it was close to 12 30 when the power suddenly cut out. I smelled it. Reporter what did it smell like . Something burning. Reporter pepco says friday afternoon a tree in a wooded area fell. That tree it turns out fell on pepcos transformer lines which in turn supply electricity to four substations. Once those substations went offline Power Outages began to spread across the area. Soon as many as 50,000 people at Prince Georges County and the district lost power. Nobody had power, so we didnt really know what was happening. All we knew was everything was out. Reporter no power was only part of the problem. Prince georges county fire and ems were called to the Addison Plaza, the reason . Residents in the area and store owners began hearing strange sounds, smelled burnt electrical odors coming from the plazas main transformer. The transformer was acting in an unusual manner. It may have had something to do with a generator in one of the stores back feeding into that transformer. Were not sure. Reporter pepco and fire Officials Say the problem resolved itself as soon as the power came back on. Metro says the outage caused Power Outages at the addison road and Capitol Heights stations, but it only affected the stations operations like escalators and lights and had no effect on rail service. Metro crews were seen double checking facilities after the power returned. I dont know. I didnt know what was going on. Reporter Prince Georges County Officials Say as a precautionary measure 20 houses near the addison Shopping Center were evacuated while the transformer was malfunctioning. Those residents have now returned to their homes. Several restaurants had to close early. When the power finally began returning in the afternoon, several restaurants started to open up. The weather here certainly looks nothing like it did in all the live shots up north. Im glad, too. We wouldnt be going home tonight. Wed have to shack up somewhere. Want to talk about valentines day now or wait . Valentines day is coming up, isnt it . It could be a little dicey around here for valentines day. We can get some of the white stuff. Its going to be interesting. Its a little too early to pin that one down, mr. Bolter, to be honest with you, but its on the forecast sevenday. Listen, its going to be breezy this evening out there. You see a picture of the capitol tonight and its pretty good around here. The winds are beginning to kick up and just a little while ago after 10 00 the National Weather service decided they were going to expand the wind advisory that they put in place earlier. Most of it was out west, but now theyve decided that the winds will be Strong Enough all night long that they needed to expand this right through d. C. Down to Prince William county, Charles County and out toward the bay for just about everybody. The thinking here is that winds will be 20 to 30 sustained, some gusts possibly as high as 50 Miles Per Hour and thats going to go overnight tonight until early tomorrow morning. Theyll probably be able to bring that down when theyve scheduled to bring it down at 6 00 in the morning. It is going to be windy tomorrow, though. By tomorrow afternoon were going to start to get a little relief from the wind. You notice where the gusts are right now. Were gusting at 40 Miles Per Hour for gaithersburg. Here in town were gusting at 26. Quantico 42. Dulles 41 and again there is the potential that overnight tonight some spots could have some gusts up around 50 Miles Per Hour. 39 now the temperature beginning to fall, 34 gaithersburg, 34 frederick. Theres colder air to the north of us. As this storm system is really getting stronger right now up to the northeast, its going to really start to bring in these colder temperatures. So colder air, drier air comes in overnight tonight with these real gusty winds. If youre out early tomorrow, it is going to be very cold. Wind chill value will be in the Single Digits if not loving around zero. This is the big hovering around zero. This is the big blizzard. It continues to get stronger tonight. It is beginning to incorporate the secondary piece of energy we talked about. Weve been talking about how this storm would phase which basically means two pieces of energy come together. Once that happens this low pressure gets even stronger. Snow rates will be increasing still overnight tonight. There could be some places with 2 to 3 inches of snow per hour. That is really where the snow will pile up and it looks like that will be basically from parts of connecticut over into rhode island and then up into most of eastern and central massachusetts. Thats where the heaviest snow bulls eye appears its going to be. Now the storm is far enough away from us now that were not going to get this snow on the backside of the system. We may have a few flurries come down. You see this little piece here central and western parts of pennsylvania. Thats riding some real cold air. Some of that may come through as light snow flurries or snowflakes overnight tonight, but we are in no way worried about any accumulation. The real blizzard area is up here and you can see i just put 18 plus there. Could be some 2 feet totals. There could be more than that, but the problem is it will be blowing all over the place. So trying to figure out where the snow totals are is going to be difficult. Area of low pressure moving up the coast, High Pressure squeezing in. Thats why well be so windy at least the first part of the day tomorrow. High will only be 40. Its going to feel much colder all day long, a little better for sunday, high 48. Clouds and wind tonight, some gusts to 40. Were already getting gusts to for. Lets say possibility of gusts up to 50 Miles Per Hour, sustained winds 15 to 25 Miles Per Hour. For the first part of the day tomorrow downright windy. It will get a little better as we progress through the afternoon. As brian bolter asked, what about valentines day . Well, we have a storm system coming, so well have to watch that one for next week. You see that on the fox 5 accuweather sevenday forecast and weve got snowflakes and its too early to tell, but newest guidance tonight still suggesting there may be another storm moving up the east coast by Late Wednesday night. Got it. Youll keep an eye on it. Im going to take a break for the weekend and come back and keep an eye on it next week. Sounds good. Just being honest.
