To use them, you will have to pay a toll or have a minimum amount of passengers in your vehicle. Sherry ly has everything you need to know. Reporter this is a soft launch for the express lanes. They open tomorrow. Come monday, when drivers in these lanes over here are stuck in gridlock, can you drive over here in the express lanes for a smooth ride but at a price. The express lanes, two in each direction, run 14 miles from springfield to the American Legion bridge. Drivers will need an ezpass to use the lanes. The cost will depend on when you drive, how far and how many others are using lanes too. With prices going up as more people use it. The congestion pricing is supposed to keep the number of cars down so that traffic keeps moving at 45 Miles Per Hour. Translation, it will be most expensive during rush hour with the average trip costing between 5 and 6 although it could go higher. Now, carpoolers with three or more people will drive for free but must have the new ezpass flex transponders for paying the toll. Another big certain is what is going to happen at the American Legion bridge. Is it going to end up in just another gridlock as the lanes end going into maryland. The big test for that will come on monday touring the morning rush hour. Weve got more of what you need to know on our web site, myfoxdc. Com. Back to you. Thank you.

This morning general David Petraeus will testify about libya. He is considered a central figure in the proceedings but questions were raised about whether he could ill testify after resigning. After admitting to an affair. Time for the morning line and look at what the redskins are facing this sunday against the eagles. The numbers arent exactly in their favor when it comes to their rookie quarterback. The skins are lost to the last eight they faced back in 2005. They have a chance to change that this sunday against the eagles new face. They are using a new approach, fresh off the bye week looking at the last seven games almost like a new season. He has been struggling. So what does the team think is the biggest concern this weekend . To me i think its the big play. If you let them hit a big play and a quick strike then they can kill you. If you force them to snap it again and again and give them a chance to make mistakes, that is something we have to try to use. The offense wont change. Itll come out. They will give you different personal groupings, they will run a lot of Different Things and you have to be able to with stand the onslaught early. Then you settle in. Already. Our coverage of the redskins game sunday starts at 11 00 a. M. With redskins game time. Kickoff is at one at fedex field. All right. Good luck. Coming up next edward, bella and their little girl are on the big screen. Breaking dawn part two hits theaters this weekend. We have the take on the long awaited release as the news continues. u fans have been waiting a while so will breaking dawn part two deliver in movie reviewer Kevin Mccarthy with 106. 7 the fandowns us now. How are you . Good to see you. These are big movies we have to talk about today. Huge. Everybody is going to want to know what your take is. The twilight saga, part two. What did you think of this one . Everybody is going to go see them. But this is a movie for people who also get dragged to the twilight films as well. It is really good. This series has made over 2. 5 billion worldwide. This is the fifth film. Supposed to be the final film. You never know if theyll do spinoffs. This is the final film in the book series. This is the perfect way to send the audience off. I feel like they really focused on giving the audience the best end possible. This is there is a massive, massive surprise, a huge twist that does not exist in the book and i saw the film with about 80 twilight fans and they were having heart attacks in the theater. It is so much fun to watch it with an audience. I mean the fans go absolutely crazy. I will say this. Over the years, even the harry potter films, i loved those movies but i felt the ending between voled mart and harry was a little bit anticipate climactic. That battle scene should have been 30 minutes long this. Particular movie, they give you a sendoff. The chemistry is great. The first 30 minutes, the effects are a little bit cheesy. I felt like when she is running through the trees and fitting the deer, that stuff was a little bit cheesy. It looked kind of bad for a film that should have cost with a more to make. Its fun movie, a cultural phenomenon. I think that edward and bella, their relationship, youve grown to like them as a couple on screen. I think the film does a great job. It allows the audience to have i great sendoff. What about a lot of kids that seem to get into the movie. Do you think it is appropriate to take kids . This is one of the more hard pg13 films that ive seen. There are a lot of decap degrees in the film. That might be a problem. But here is how they get around it. There is no blood. It is very minimal blood. So can you show they show the violence but if there is no blood there, you dont get the r rating. That is what the directsor was telling mee. That is what happened with bill kill when he turned the scene black and white, no blood. It is definitely a harder pg13 so dont take the little ones to see it. Did you give it . I gave it a 3 1 2 out of five. I would say this is best, then eclipse, then twilight breaking down and new moon was terrible. All that was bella falls off a motorcycle and gets hurt and Taylor Lautner walks up and says let me take my shirt off and youll feel better. I always say this wrong. Anna karenina. This is the 12th adaptation of the book by tolstoy, the 12th. This is 19th century russia. Russia. Its love story. Its great story but what the director has done is he is telling it like a stage play. The majority of the film is shot on an actual stage so. When you are watching it and we have this cool clip here, ill show you shortly. It is shot just like you have the video. Look at the camera there. Watch the set pieces being moved into frame. That is actually how the movie looks in front of the camera. There are people just moving set pieces and then here comes jude law. He will sit down at that table. Do you like that . It is distracting. To quote a song, its beautiful disaster it is a film that looks gorgeous but it takes away from the story. You focus too much on the process as opposed to engaging in the performance. I think its film you can watch visually but i had a hard time connecting to the characters. I think its good matinee with a lot of oscar buzz for it right now. That is what i was wondering. Jude law is fantastic if the film. I feel like the movie could have been less focused on the process and more focused on the story. And this morning, coming unat 8 45, we have a oneonone exclusive sitdown with my buddy robert pat inson right there. I asked him if they could drop the twilight cast into any classic film of all time whooshing would they who would they have the best time with. His answer was the best answer ive gotten on any junket. Okay. So tune it. Ive got one more question. You promise the special effects are better. Oh, the special effects in this one the first one hay terrible budget. First couple. It was like an episode of the flintstones. I want to pay money to sit in the theater this weekend and watch the fans reaction of surprise. It is awesome. I wanted to know if he asked Robert Pattinson about that whole breakup thing. I dont care about the movie. I want to know about the drama. Me too. All right. Weather, were starting cold but well finish the day with sunshine and temperatures in the mid others t will be a nice afternoon. 4 right now in washington. Here we go. 42 right now in washington. 32 in frederick. We are 31 in hagerstown. 30 the winning number in winchester. Good morning to you. 30 in martinsburg as well. And low 40s here to the south. Quantico, 43. 42 in fredericksburg. Looking at the radar, couple of showers south and east of the city. Southern maryland, st. Marys city may be getting a shower and across the bay over towards oxford and as you get up towards cambridge, a light sprinkle. All this pushing off to the north and east with a weak little upper level disturbance that has been coming through. Notice the trend here is to pull the clouds up toward philadelphia and new york and weve got clear skies out to the west. If you look out the window here shortly you will see us quickly transition here from some cloud cover to mostly sunny conditions as the sun gets up. It should be a beautiful day. High pressure will build in here and deliver a nice couple of days. At the surface, High Pressure will keep things nice and quiet. Well be a little cool with our winds out of the north and northeast both today and tomorrow. A decent looking weekend. Sundays now looking pretty good. 54 today.

Early next week, if you are traveling, tuesday or wednesday, quiet conditions across the midatlantic and a sneak peek at thanksgiving, upper 50s, sunshine, perfect if you want to go out and play a little football before the big meal. Should be fine. We are looking great for thanksgiving right now. Great. Still a week away though so. Yes,. It is tony perkins. Hello, hello. Good morning, everybody. Guess what it is time for. Ask stoney and tucker. The most popular segment in Morning Television except for Kevin Mccarthys movie reviews. Todays question is from shawn. That is the only name we have who simply want to know how did they come up with the names of the week or the names of the days of the week. I think we left something out there. How did they come up with the names of the days of the week. Wednesday, thursday, friday. Do you have any clues . I dont. I really dont. Greek history. I dont know. Close. Good guess, wisdom. The names of the days of the week were originally they were originally named thousands of years ago, they were named by the ancients, the saxons and the force. The early vikings. They were hanging on the and checking out the stars because they didnt have television. No movies. That is how things got started, right . Now, back when they started naming the days of the week, they could there were no telescopes and they would look at the sky and everything. They could see with the naked eye five planets. They also back then thought that the sun and the moon were planets as well. They included those. So they saw in their mind seven planets. And so they decided well lets name these days after the planets. Society first one makes sense, sunday. What was that named after. Monday,. The moon. Right. Tuesday was named after i knew i would lose this. Do you remember . The force god tiw. Yes. The norce god was name tiw and it became tuesday day. Wednesday is from the god woden. These are good names for future children by the way, woden. Woden was the equivalent of mercury because it moved very quickly around the sky as if on winged feet. So that was wednesday. Thursday, can you think about greek or norse mythology. From the marvel comic. Thor. Now, friday is kind of an exception. Friday was named after a goddess of love. There is debate. There are a couple of different ones, both start with an f. There is kind of debate as to which one it was named after although there are some indication that the two goddesses of love were actually just one and they somehow became two people at one point. Too much love to go around. So that is what friday is named after. Tucker, saturday . And name in honor of saturn, right . Gosh. I never knew this. Interesting. So how about that. It is actually rather simple with the exception of some confusion about friday. But there you go. They could have done us a favor if they had made like a fourday week and then two of those days could be off and we would only have to work two days. What . I mean the cop september of seven days is arbitrary, right . As is much of what we take for granted every day. Time. Friday, it makes sense why we love it. Goddess of love. Quite right. There you go. So, there you go. Thank you very much for the question, shawn. If you have a question that you want to have answered, all you need to do is go to myfoxdc. Com. Xdc. Com. Click on the weather tab.
