You will be fine. Heres what we know. Were talking light prince and its not an ice storm light precipitation and its not an ice storm scenario. I think it kicks to all rain in the beltway by 8 a. M. Saturday and all rain in hagerstown by 10 a. M. And no refreezing saturday night. Temps actually hold in the 40s. 5 00 a mix frederick to hagerstown in the morning and 6 30 saturday a mix down to the beltway. Well come back and show you a different model thats a little more bullish on this system. In weather this cold its tempting to park the car almost legally and run a quick errand, but there are changes to towing regulations in our area that you should know about. Mola lenghi is on that story tonight live from arlington. Reporter towing can be a pretty grisly business as you know, unpopular, contentious, never seems to be any winners, but in Arlington County there are some new measures protecting drivers from predatory towing, but Business Owners we spoke with say it might hurt their bottom line. In the dense urban landscape of many Arlington County neighborhoods parking is a luxury, one that can be hard to find for drivers and costly for the businesses who offer it. We have the highest rent in the neighborhood because of the parking space. Reporter those spaces are limited, roughly 60 spots for this small strip of eight businesses, all of which are restaurants on wilson boulevard. Its the sort of lot where you might get towed. Weve had many, many xqmany times of day where customers from other locations park here because were one of the last Shopping Centers here in arlington with its own parking lot. Reporter but towing may have gotten more complicated in Arlington County where towers are now required to call businesses and get realtime authorization before each individual tow. Before if Tow Companies had a contract with the business, they essentially had Carte Blanche in the lots. I think i like the way they had it set up before. Want to be called every 10, 15 minutes someone has to tow a car. Reporter not surprisingly drivers seem to like the extra protection. Especially when you dont really know what the rules are when you park. You dont necessarily see the times posted. So its better theres an extra layer. Ive seen and heard Horror Stories before. It definitely can be predatory. There has to be a posted sign, so i dont think its predatory, but i do think people get taken advantage of. Reporter some see towing as a necessary evil. I dont like the idea of towing, but at the same time we as a business have to protect our rights. Reporter youre losing a lot. And a lost parking space means a lost potential customer and lost potential dollars. The owner of one tow company insists arlington doesnt have a towing problem, rather a parking problem. Also included in the new towing requirements businesses will have to that explains parking rules in their lots and tow Truck Drivers must take pictures of all four corners of the vehicle as evidence of the condition of the vehicle before it was towed.

This happened at h and eighth streets northeast, an area back then that was virtually desolate, but now its one of the citys biggest nightlife district. Garrett haake is there with our story.

They convicted eight, but now the surviving men have appealed all the way to the Supreme Court. Each defendant is charged with felony murder, Armed Robbery and kidnapping.

Reporter Police Arrested members of a loose knit gang called the eighth and h crew and charged 10 teens and 20 somethings with fullers murder. Os sentenced to lengthy prison terms, but two years later after two men recanted their testimony the Innocence Project started digging into the case and found the government withheld evidence they should have shared with the defense, the most a damning evidence, the identity of another man seen running from the murder scene, another possible suspect. In discovery we found out that he was somebody who had committed robberies in the alleys in the area either on his own or with one other person and today he is serving life without parole for another murder and sodomy of a small woman in an alley in northeast about 3 blocks from where the murder of katherine fuller took place.

You saw it here at 8 00 as amy celebrated her birthday on the Big Bang Theory. The actress who plays the neuroscientist is actually a neuroscientist herself. Our Allison Barber talked to her tonight about spreading her love of science. Reporter middle schoolers in this room. They go to different schools. I go to school at holt. I go to kilmer. Reporter but they all spent 10 weeks learning to cold. Coding is basically to input what you put on the computer. Its like a format. Reporter and created all kinds of apps. The point is to try to make a world with a defender on the top. Every time you click it adds a certain amount of calories. Reporter theyre part of a Program Sponsored by capital one called c1 coders. The idea is to teach kids to code because one day theyll need it no matter what their job is, but this night is also about encouraging them to care about science, technology, engineering and math. It seems appropriate they brought in one of tvs nerdiest, maya bialis. Between bang theory bialek earned a phd in neuroscience and learned how to code. Its very tedious, but its also an amazing skill. So to me to see one colders program is a Coders Program is a way to celebrate and talk about a way of putting on a positive face on the s. T. E. M. Field in general. Reporter women make up over half the workforce in the united states, but only 26 have jobs dealing with math or computers. The notion of those careers are often not really given as an option when theyre young. The younger we can start introducing positive faces and yes, female faces as well as male faces to kids, i think the better off well be in sort of leveling out that discrepancy. Reporter whether she knew it or not, thats what a lot of these students saw when she walked on stage. She is a role model to all girls and all girls who want to code. Reporter now extra gadgets to help them learn. Gadget to help them learn. She is a great role model with a phd to boot. Those laptops were gifts to the students, not the school. Theyre going to get to take them home. They were paid for by capital one. They look exciting, yeah. Howie does some coding. It is tedious, but it is some cool stuff. Its a great skill. I wish you could code us some warmer weather because after even just a day were about fed up. 58 on sunday. Ill take it. Now lets talk about the tag board. I got some questions on facebook and ill answer these for you as they come. In of course, you can always ask me a question. This is the one question everybody wants to know. How bad is it going to be . Tomorrow is going to be fine, cold. No wind chills, no sleet, no snow. You can do anything you want tomorrow till midnight saturday. So there. Good question, linda. It will be about this. We had to go for a high of 38. The high was 40 at midnight. Were going for a high of 30 tomorrow. That sounds cold, but without the wind chills it will be much more pleasant tomorrow than it was today. 19 now. Look at the dew point, minus 6. So outdoor humidity 33 , but your indoor humidity because youre working off a temperature closer to 70, so its 70 minus 6. That means your indoor relative humidity is about 4 to 5 . Thats pretty low. Okay. Bus stop temperatures also low 8, yeah, 8 to 22. I didnt forget a one there. The good news, no wind chills. Afternoon clouds tomorrow, perhaps a few evening flurries. Dont freak out, youre fine until midnight. Yellow alert, though, tomorrow night late and also through saturday morning. Critical hours essentially 11 p. M. Tomorrow until 8 a. M. Again we have that winter storm watch to the north and west late tomorrow. Now futurecast going to go through this just temperatures for the most part, so 6 00 13, 13 in gaithersburg, 19 downtown. By 9 00 21 downtown, 19 in bowie and by 1 00 its still in the 20s everywhere i mean essentially, 28 in la plata. Clouds move through time to time, only 24 in hagerstown and by 6 p. M. Tomorrow a lot of clouds but you can still drive around, linda, go to dinner, take a movie, do your date night as long as youre home around midnight. 9 30 clouds thicken and temps hold steady tomorrow. They wont fall much. This is one model we showed you earlier. So its got a little mix in by about 6 a. M. From essentially the beltway through the spur northward up 270. Already its turned to rain near leesburg with temperatures at 31. I dont think its quite bullish enough, if everywhere and up north where temperatures are below freezing theres no precipitation at all. This is a different model early in the morning on saturday, 2 30 a. M. A little sleet. What this model does is it takes the sleet and freezing rain further south and takes it over a wider area. I think this is more realistic. Its still a mild event. This is just a little more bullish. By 6 a. M. We have some sleet and freezing rain from Prince Georges County across 95 back to the mountains and we still have it around the beltway by 7 30. This holds onto the cold air until 10 00 up into hagerstown and frederick and i think thats probably more accurate. Here we go, teens to start, 29 to finish at 1 00 with high clouds, but mix goes to rain. The warm air wins on saturday, 50, rain and showers sunday, 58, temps crash again sunday afternoon. Set the stage for a chilly game on fedex, figure temps in the 30s but week were back in the upper 50s. Were all over the place.

They played in super bowl l, but in the offseason one of carolinas big Playmakers Josh norman came to washington as a free agent signing a five year 75 million contract. For norman monday will be the first time he faces his former team and he knows this isnt just another game. I think coming monday night those emotions, i think theyll probably come out and show themselves. I dont know what it will be because like i said, its my first time being in something here is making guys on this team better. I mentioned the panthers are struggling. While they arent mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, it would pretty much take a miracle for them to make it back to the playoffs. Our Frank Hanrahan and redskins hall of famer Darrell Green taking a deeper look. Redskins trying to keep their playoff hopes alive against carolina monday night and carolina has that superman in cam newton even though the panthers are pretty much out of the playoff hunt, a very dangerous team. Yeah. Greg olsen to go with that superman. They have some incredible players particularly on offense. Heres the deal and they know it, too. They have been in my opinion the biggest bust this year. They only won five games and they were in the super bowl last year. Theres no way to twist it. Now you got the coach and player arguing. About the tie. Come on after you play us, you all got to get it figured out. They had a big victory last week. Carolina beat san diego, so theyre on the road trying to play the role of spoiler. Well see how it shakes down monday night at fedex field, finally back. Finally they did it against green bay on primetime, so things are looking up for the redskins. Home field advantage.
