You can see it off to our west. So far along i95. We are in the clear, but heavier moisture is coming our way overnight tonight. If i zoom in on doppler 9,000, theres a pop of a brief shower which is popping up right now. Just north of chantilly. It is traveling off toward the east and it should be headed up toward sterling in the next couple of minutes. Overall, looking great from our michael and son cam. We have temperatures on the mild side. Holding on to 76 at Reagan National. The wind haves calmed down and winds are only about 5 Miles Per Hour at the current time and humidity is quite high. So mild temperatures for tonight, our wakeup weather is definitely going to be on the sticky and steamy side. Especially as we head into early morning. Early morning shower or thunderstorm possible, but then the temperatures really start to spike into the afternoon. Ill be back in a few minutes with your full forecast. We have breaking news right now. D. C. Councilman, marion barry, has been taken to the hospital after being involved in a car crash. It happened at 30th and pennsylvania avenue in southeast around 9 30 this evening. We have been talking to d. C. Police. They tell us it was a minor crash. Its unclear whether former mayor was behind the wheel. Barrys jag jaguar was on the scene. We have more breaking news tonight. This pertaining to the murder of two women in oxen hill, maryland. Prince georges county police have arrested a man in connection with 54yearold, malcolm thomas. He lived in the house where the two women were murdered. Tonight, thomas is in Police Custody in wakefield, virginia. Hes awaiting extradition where he faces two count of first degree murder. The womens bodies were found just before 8 00 this morning in the 5500 block of cloe drive. Police have not released their names or relationships to the suspect. The First American ebola patient will arrive in the u. S. For treatment is spending his first night in isolation at Emery University hospital in atlanta. Duffy dixon from our sister station in atlanta has that story from the campus. Outfitted in a protective suit, dr. Kent brantly stepped gingerly out of an ambulance, toward what will be his home for the next two to three weeks at least. A specially prepared isolation room as some of the best Infectious Disease doctors in the world try to save his life. Its a 24 7 staff unit. We have icu nurses that will be in that unit all the time and will have a physician at least one physician colleague with them. These are experts in Infectious Disease and we alhave assistance from our Critical Care colleagues. It was this chartered business jet outfitted with an isolation pod that touched down at 11 30 this morning. After transporting brantly from liberia. He was part of the humanitarian mission with samaritans first, tending to the hundreds who have contracted ebola, until he himself came down with the virus. Once the jet landed, it was a standard ambulance, likely turned into an isolation pod of sorts that made its way through atlanta traffic. No police escort, just a caravan of unmarked vehicles. Stopping at lights and intersections like any other cars on the road. And then the final turn into Emery University hospital. The driver is wearing a special suit. Has gloves, was wearing a mask. Keep in mind, dr. Brantly is the first of two americans being brought here for treatment. We expect to see the same slow calculated transport again in just days. We are not expecting any immediate update about dr. Brantlys condition. In part because his family has asked that they keep his condition private. In atlanta, duffy dixon reporting. Here in washington, president Barack Obama Says he is taking the Ebola Outbreak in africa seriously. He says the u. S. Is taking precautions for next weeks u. S. African summit here in the nations capital. The Administration Says leaders of liberia have canceled their trips here. Americans have been warned no the to travel to liberia and sierra leon where the ebola virus has killed more than 700 people this year alone. Meantime, in the gaza conflict, a soldier feared abducted has been declared dead tonight. The 23yearold soldier was killed in battle on friday. Also today, israel said for the time being, it will not participate in the peace talks hosted by egypt this weekend. Isrealis Prime Minister warned that hamas will quote, pay an intolerable price if it continues to fire rockets at israel. He added isreali troops will operate as long as necessary to restore calm for isreali citizens. Here in washington, tensions were high as supporters on both sides of the war in gaza rally today in front of the white house. Stephanie ramirez was there. Protesters hoisted what they called coffins wrapped with palestinian flags. The conflict in gaza, the tensions, the frustrations, knocking on the white houses front doors as hundreds descended, calling for an end to the violence. The mothers and the grandparents are dying. I mean, nobody is saying anything. You dont see it here. Once my eyes were open to that, i couldnt in good conscious come. Those with family in gaza and not came by the bus loads. Im not just calling for an end to violence, but an end to the United States in support of israel as the death toll continues to grow. Our wives, our kids, theres nobody left for us. One thing not anticipated is how many people would show up today. Tensions rising between palestine supporters and israel supporters. Police had barricades to calm the crowd. This man claimed to have been kicked by propalestine supporters. One of those described what happened leading up to this. We were having a very civil conversation in a very heated atmosphere. The two trying to hash out their differences through a dialogue. I do not support the killing. But the people of gaza have a right to defend themselveses. They want the white house to hear their call and take a strong stance before more are killed. At the white house, wusa9 news. Palestinian Health Officials say more than 1650 palestinians, mostly civilians have been killed. Israel has lost 63 soldiers since fighting began. Congress and the white house are no closer tonight to addressing the Immigration Crisis affecting tens and thousands of Central American children and single mothers illegally crossing the u. S. And mexico border. Armando trull reports tonight, some new voices are now joining the chorus of those demanding actions by our elected leaders. There are black immigrants everywhere and president obama needs to know. That was the message from african immigrant activist who joined nearly 1,000 others in a march to the white house to demand an end to deportations and a change in the nations immigration laws. Not one more deportation, right . Not one more family being separated. Not one more death at the border. There are 160,000 african and black caribbean immigrants in the metro d. C. Region. Thats 15 of the areas total immigrant population. These women say it is high time black voices are part of the immigration debate. I hear immigration, talk about latinos, europeans. Nobody is talking about jamaicans. We get deported, too. We need to know, what are you going to do to make sure the africans have the papers. That way we can send money back home because the fact is, all the foreign aid combined as african immigrants, we send more money back home. This protest comes a day after the house of representatives passed a bill addressing the border crisis. Only provides a sliver of the money president obama asked for. It also forces the white house to repeal some of the measures it has protecting undocumented students brought here by their parents and more importantly, would expedite the deportation process of thousands of children currently held. All of this is a nonstarter for most democrats, so this pretty much means that well continue to see protests like this in the coming days, weeks, and months. At the white house, armando trull, wusa9. President obama was expected to announce executive action on Immigration Reform in coming weeks, its not clear what those measures will be. Multicar crash in northeast d. C.

Especially after sunrise, but keep that umbrella near your side all day long because a shower will pop up from time to time. Overnight tonight, its about the middle rain 60s for the norm.

Nonetheless, it was Jordan Zimmerman, the hero of the night with seven shutout innings and manager, matt williams, likes what he has seen since the allstar break. And you know, weve had the one start in philly, other than that, hes had no issues with anything. He feels great. We could have had him go out for another inning, but theres really no need in that regard. Orioles enter the night with a 2 1 2 lead over toronto in the al east. Hosting seattle in the 5th inning.
