expecting a dusting to maybe a half inch. maybe if you are lucky, an inch. that is about it. not a whole lot with this system. then saturday, more snow falling out to the west at #:00 p.m. some indication we could see a few more snow flurries around here as well on saturday. -- then saturday, more snow falling out to the west at 6:00 p.m. for tonight, another cold night, light snow possible.

latest is that they have stopped soliciting investeddors due to overwhelming desire for the share they were selling. only certain people could buy if they had a minimum investment of $2 million. they are ending that share sale two days early because it is so popular. what goldman is doing is trying to arrange some sort of reek where the shareholders would count as just one shareholder and they don't have to file all of that paperwork with the sec. not sure for it is going to work. if it doesn't, we will see a facebook ipo sometime probably this year. the company is valued at about $2

some rain showers across eastern north carolina. and then out to the west, snow across portions of ohio, kentucky, pushing into west virginia. that little system could bring us some snow flurries later on today and then more likely some snow showers during the overnight and i mean late overnight, really early morning tomorrow hours. so that is what we're looking at. right now, reagan national

at 9:00 last night, the sixth homicide of the year. this one happening in oxon hill, maryland at an apartment complex, the 1300 block of south view drive. police say they got a call freight resident there who said they discovered a man bleeding in the hallway of the apartment. when police arrived, they discovered the man dead at the scene. they have not released a name. they have also not made an arrest in this case. this is in addition to the five people would have already been killed in prince george's county since the beginning of the year. there were four murdered altogether just in one 24-hour period two days ago. police are saying these are not random. they believe these people are targeted and that two of these cases could be related. in three of the cases, they believe drugs were involved in this in some way. another one being robbery was possibly a motive. but whenever the reason is behind these cases, police say they are doing what they can to stop it. >> this is not an unknown phenomena. we've had spikes in homicides before. the main thing the community is looking for us, i believe is a steady hand thatter on top of it, that we are fully -- that we are on top of it, that we are fully engaged and we are. >> reporter: undercover police officers are out in the neighborhood where some of of the homicides have already occurred. still as of this morn, no arrests in any of these six homicides. we are live here in palmer park, sarah simmons being back to you. >> thank you. we want to take a look at our too top stories. a serial rapist is on the loose in montgomery county. police have released a sketch of the suspect. they say he attacked and elderly woman last summer and then again. neighbors say they are on edge. >> it is sad. hopefully, he will get caught.

her apartment two months after the first reported incident. the suspect is described as about 5'10", weighing around 145 pounds with no facial hair. a rash of burglaries has police in prince william county asking for the public's help. there have been about a dozen break-ins in the lake ridge area since mid december. jewelry seems to be the main target. >> since these are occurring during the day, we know there are people home and trying in the area. don't always assume that someone else will call the police. if you see something suspicious, be the first to call because we would rather go out and be nothing than to not get a call and have another burglary. >> police remind to you lock your doors during the day and have your alarm set if you have one. newly released surveillance video shows john wheeler confused and dior yented two days before his body was northbound in a landfill. he is seen here in a parking garage with a suit and no tie, wearing only one shoe and carrying the

loan from them. that includes this gavel which i accept gratefully knowing that i am but its caretaker. >> as nancy pelosi stepped down, she did so with less than unanimous packing by her party. >> however we may differ, let us never lose sight of our common laws for this exceptional nation and our shared obligation to the way forward. >> reporter: her successor echoed the call. >> there is a great deal of scar tissue that has been built up on both sides of the aisle. we can't ignore that nor should we. my belief has been that we can disagree without being disagreeable. >> reporter: that call for civility will be tested and soon with house republicans teeing up a all-out repeal for the health care law. though the gop is likely to easily win that battle, the senate is where the decembers hold an advantage. and both parties will face pressure on i arrange of issues from newly elected members from the tea party. and the 50 plus returning house member who already count themself among the new tea part caucus. boehner today sounded like a man ready to get to work. >> welcome to the people's house. welcome to the 112th congress. >> republicans are bringing in their biggest

for ask the weather guys, the sexment where tucker barnes and i put our big heads together to answer your most pressing questions, weather-related or otherwise. sometimes we call in an expert as we are doing today. today's question comes from diane brown in alexandria. she writes, on saturday, january 1st, between 12:30 and 1:30 in the morning, i felt a definite shaking while i was lying in bed. than there was a slight pause and i felt it again. i was telling a friend at work about this and she felt it too and she lives in dale city. was there some kind of shake that happened? >> this is january 1st, new year's day. >> i had the same suspicions but i not not what this woman does so diane, we are phoning a friend for this one. joining us now is mike blandpede with the u.s. geological survey. are you there? >> yes, i am. >> here is the question. the woman was in alexandria. she has a friend in dale city. she says at 12:30 in the morning, they felt a slight shake. she wants to know was -- we want to know was there a seismic event in our area? >> an earthquake, in other words. >> yeah. >> well being we looked into this. and fortunately, usgs and our partners do operate seismometers throughout the country and in this case in virginia and maryland so we were automobile to look directly at what the earth was telling us at that time. it turns out that there is a seismometer that is operated at corbin. it is operated by virginia tech and they have their information online. we talked to our experts and they looked at that time of the night on the 1st and the instruments showed absolutely nothing. so whatever the shaking was, i'm sure something was felt but shaking can come from a number of syverss. in this case, it was not the earth. >> so it may have been -- sometimes a truck -- a big truck could go by and cause rumbling in a house. so no seismic event and these obviously -- they're accurate and they can pick up even minor events. >> yes, very light. you will remember some months ago we had that giant super quake or actually small earthquake up near gaithersburg. it was fairly widely felt in the area. that was picked up on a number of seismometers in the area and it was the largest earthquake we had had since we had been recording earthquakes in the area. we've picked up earthquakes that are considerably smaller than that that aren't even felt. >> incident -- interesting. >> tell us what people can do if they think they've experienced something. you all want to hear from folks. >> we main tape a very popular web site if people go to usgs.gov or earthquake.usgs.gov and we have a whole range of information on the remember including all we know about earthquakes in real time. as soon as the seismometers pick up an earthquake, the computeers identify an earthquake has having happened being that information goes up on maps. if it is a significant earthquake causing widespread shaking, then we create a map that shows the distribution of shaking. if it is one that is likely to have cause the human impact, then we have maps and information about that as well. all of that goes up within minutes -- within a couple of minutes for any earthquake in the u.s. if people suspect they may have felt an earthquake, they can go right on the web and find that out. >> that is very good. mike, you guys do wonderful work. thank you. and they really did look right into the specific report. we thank you for doing that, taking the time to do it. and go to the web site, there is a lot of of interesting information there. thank you, mike. good to talk to you. we'll talk to you again sometime. >> thank you. no seismic event. don't know what else my -- might have been going on. >> it was new year's. there could have been fireworks in the area. any number of things. >> if you have a question that you want answered, go to myfoxdc.com and click on the weather tab. the cars, shake it up. haven't heard that in a
