Lets talk about right here right now first because that is the most immediate concern. Well be fine this morning. Weve got some fog out there. You can see that on our satelliteradar picture and just like yesterday, we had the low clouds for the first part of the day. I think well do that again today. If you look real carefully, you see the milky gray that spread across eastern pennsylvania and much of maryland and virginia here. That is that fog that i mentioned and weve got an easterly flow here. Our wind are out of the east pushing across the ocean. That is why we have this little maritime layer and it will keep temperatures realtively cool. That is a cold front out in indiana. That will be player in our forecast as we get into the weekend.

I think our weather will start to break down during the day on sunday. Well probably start to get some rain showers in here and then the main event as it were would likely occur during the day on monday and tuesday. Just look at the latest guidance. It looks a little more ominous for us. I want to emphasize that this track could change. It has changed several times in the past southeasterly days so nothing is set in stone here. But. It has changed several times in the past several days so nothing is set in stone here. Saturday at 5 00, notice the storm still to our south. That is the cold front that. Cold air, when it interacts with this tropical air will energy the system right where we dont want it to. Watch the motion here. We are sunday morning at 11 00. Starting to get the bands of rain. Notice the eye, the center of circulation still well to our south. And as i mentioned, the latest guidance is trying to put the center right up to the bay of delaware here early monday into tuesday and that would be very problem at being for us. That would mean lots and lots of heavy rain and gusty wind around here. It could still be a category one hurricane or at least the equist lent at landfall. There could be some 70mile an hour wind gust as long the shore by early monday. 7 1rbg early clouds and fog today. 71, early clouds and fog today. Let me mention the cool temperature with the rain and wind and highs only in the upper 40s to about 50 monday and tuesday. This could be some very heavy rain. Lots of question marks. Things could change here that. Track could change. But definitely want to keep in mind here we could be dealing with a pretty good storm by monday and tuesday.

Lets get become to halloween 2010. For me, memories are still raw. My heart is racing. Im starting to sweat because i am at one of the biggest Haunted Houses in the country. Admittedly im in the a Haunted House person and frankly i dont understand why so many are. Waiting in long lines, forking over a big chunk of pocket change. Following strangers in the darkness in complete fear for what . Fear connects us to other people. Reporter human nature expert paul zach is the author of the moral molecule, a book that examines what makes us good or evil. He tells me the terror brings us closer to one another.

Reporter it is estimated that americans spend between 300 and 500 million a year visiting Haunted Houses. I just came out a side door and im sweating. My heart is racing. Reporter those are the physical effects of fear but what happens to your brain when you go through a traumatic event. If you are with other people like in a crowded Haunted House, ironically, there is a release of oxytocin. It releases that bus plus adrenaline and stress hormones. Soldiers in battle have very strong connections. Reporter zach has been working with cedar point to study while families connect so well on roller coasterred and the theory is the same as with Haunted Houses. At the end the day, you say together, we survived. That is health works. Alth work. I guess there is something to that. I find that i like to watch scary movies but im all the one that is sitting there like this when i look between my fingers in there is something bad. I just let somebody else experience that. They can tell me about it. Movies and all. Our big story this morning and likely for the next several days, Hurricane Sandy.

Hurricane sandy is perilling her barreling her way towards the east coast. Our area Utility Companies are also preparing for sandy. Both pepco and bg e are planning for hundreds of thousands of potential outages. That is not good. Workers are now on standby. Pepco says they have 400 contractors ready plus an additional 150 holiday crews and bg e says they have 500 contractors. So already getting ready for the power outages. Yeah. One of the big issues will be that the wind field will expand as the storm gets closer. Im afraid the damage will be widespread. Remember with the derecho, it was fairly localized t could be here up to new york city, out to the west y you said in this area, at this point, you didnt think we would get Hurricane Force wind . I dont think it is likely well get Hurricane Force wind here in the immediate metro area but we could get close. We could get 50, 60mile per hour winds. It could be a sustained period of winds so that can do damage. Any of you around for isabelle, it caused lots and lots of damage. The potential is there. Again, there is a lot of talk about the storm, a lot of possible scenarios and dont panic yet because it is not set in stone. Dont go buy five million things of bread is what youre saying .

A category one hurricane. Maximum winds 80 Miles Per Hour pushing off to the north and west at 13. And let me just emphasize again, it will get in combination here with a lot of cold air, a cold front, well call day short wave that is approaching from the west. That is why it is getting this nickname of the frankenstorm. It will become a hybrid storm as it approaches the eastern seaboard. We are fine today, fine tomorrow. This would be starting sunday affect well start to get some rain and monday and tuesday would be the main event with sandy. There is your satelliteradar. Weve got fog locally to start your day.

It will be interesting to see how a lot of people react when they buy a new home computer, they boot into windows 8 and theyre lost.

So i mean definitely something to focus on here early next week but again, we dont need to panic this morning. Okay. Because things can change. Things can and they will change. Theyve changed several times here in the past 48 hours and they will likely change again as we get a little closer to the storm. We are starting to get a better incumbency sense of where it may be headed and how strong it might be when it gets here. Well keep our finger is crossed. We are starting to get a better sense of where it may be headed and how strong it might be when it gets here. 59 in frederick.

If this track were to verify, this would be a very serious storm for us by the day on monday. This would be tuesday just to our north. It would just have to kind of rain itself out. There would be nothing to push it out. We would just sit here and spin for a good 12 to 24 hours that.
