The breadometer on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being that great storm we had in 96 and 03 and 2010, nuisance storm is a 1, right now i think it will be a healthy 5, maybe up to a 6 by 11 00 tonight. Thats sort of its place in meteorological history, different from the impact meter i showed you at the top of the show. Here it is. It doesnt look crazy impressive, but i tell you what. This thing has a lot of upper level energy, spin in the atmosphere, and this will dive south and it will slow down and tap the Atlantic Ocean for a little more moisture. All the clippers so far have not done that and theyve also passed to our north. 50 now in rockville, reston, 48 in germantown, 49 in white oak, still 52 in college park, 54 in waldorf. Red alert tuesday, light snow 7 a. M. Till noon, probably less than an inch. If you have to do stuff in the morning, you can get there. Get off the roads by noon or 1 00. Heaviest snow 1 p. M. To 6 p. M. , 4 to 6 inches pretty much across the board. In addition, after the snow tapers off and by evening wind chills will be in the Single Digits. So temperatures are going to fall throughout the day tomorrow. It will be a little deceiving because tomorrows high will be the midnight temperature tonight. I like this map. This is one of our computer models, snowfall potential maam, 6. 4 inches downtown, 5 inches in culpeper. The more i look at the models, i think the bulls eye of the storm could be d. C. , baltimore to philly with less up toward new york and boston. Maybe 5 inches in gaithersburg, leesburg and maybe 6 in manassas. Where this little band will set up, well have to wait till tomorrow to see. Some areas will get 6 inches of snow.

The snow will be so light its going to drift and blow around reducing visible. Break it down, 31 by 9 00. Temps keep falling, 29 at 11 a. M. And 27 at 1 p. M. , downtown temps. In the wake of the clipper cold. Clippers often bring in arctic air. Here we go. Upper teens wednesday, yellow alert, midteens thursday with snow showers. We might have to make that a yellow alert as well. Its green for now. Next seven days, if we are lucky, well get to 32 saturday and another little clipper comes through. That could bring us a little light snow or snow showers sunday night into monday and again lowering temperatures only in the mid20s sunday and monday. So if youve had problems with pipes before, this is a bad stretch. Keep a trickling maybe starting wednesday. Just a 5 on the breado meter. A 5, fluffy snow. Hes changing it on us.

Its this postgame interview by seattle corner back Richard Sherman that grabbed everyones attention. Im the best one in the game when you try me with a sorry receiver like crabtree, thats the result youre going to get. Dont you ever talk about me immediately after that happened as you can imagine social media went ballistic. Some people praising and others laughing, but some issued death threats. They posted some really vile statements that are disturbing to read. Sherman and crabtree have some history from smacktalking during an almost apparent fight during a Charity Event last season. This will stay on the minds of fans and players as they prepare for super bowl xlviii. That was probably the biggest play of shermans career and helped send his team to the super bowl. Seattle faces the broncos at the meadowlands february 2nd, so lots of controversy surrounding this. Could he have had more class in that interview . Absolutely. Was it entertaining . I thought it was, but does he deserve the threats and stuff . Absolutely not. Its just a game. It is just a go and you got to think of whether you a game and you got to think whether you agree with the way he acted or not, these guys are under such intense pressure for 3 1 2 hours. Why did they go to him anyway . Did anybody really want to hear from him . Everybody knows the history he has. Theyve heard him say crazy things before, so we kind of needed to expect that going into it, right . Of course. When youre on the tv there, you want a great postgame interview. That was a very emotional game. It was a great game. Shermans tim at the end was it for them. That tip at the end was it for them. That sent the seahawks to the super bowl. Of course, youre going to go to him, but youve got to think about if youve ever been on that field, which ive been out there, you cant just grab whoever you want. Youre grabbing whoever you can get. If i want lesli, but youre near me, im going to grab you. And erin andrews seemed to be perfectly fine with the interview and she thought the emotion was great.

We would finally get away from the divisive extreme social agenda pushed in richmond the past few years. Our base is revved up saying theyre going to turn out. Reporter attorney john witbeck is the republican candidate and says one of the major issues is the rising tolls. Hes joined a legal challenge to try to force greenway owners to reduce or modify tolls, but the independent candidate, former 20 year republican delegate joe may says the lawsuit against the greenway could backfire. One of the possible outcomes of the suit would be that the greenway would go bankrupt or at least cease operation for a period of time. Reporter joe may said the only way to keep tolls down on the greenway is for the state to buy it which he said would cost zero thanks to the states good Credit Rating and he says he already has a deal in the works and has met with the australian owners who want to sell it.

The Grammy Awards will air right here on wusa9 and morning news anchor andrea roane has more on who is expected to take home some hardware. Reporter sunday is the 56th annual Grammy Awards. Who will take home the top honors . Im joined by usa today entertainment reporter Alyssa Gardner with some insight on who she thinks will be triumph ant and why. Shes covered a lot of these. Lets start with record of the year. Get lucky, radioactive, royals, locked out of heaven and blurred lines. What do you think is the best chance winning record of the year . I actually think its going to be lord who recorded royal. Shes a 17yearold sort of cinderella darling out of new zealand. She has critical credibility. She also got locked out of the best new artists race which surprised a lot of people, so this reward would be kind of compensation for that and its also a single in a lot of people love, a huge pop hit, comes with critical credibility which is important for grammy voters sometimes. So its looking like her i would say. I cant even say the name royals without saying it like she sings it in the song royals. That really has kind of caught on with the voting public and the viewing public. Yeah. Its become a catch phrase. Its something that a song that Everybody Knows and yet its not a song people are sick of. Its not a i dont think its regarded as a guilty pleasure hit. Its kind of got a cool cachet to it, so voters can endorse it without feeling guilty themselves. Lets talk about album of the year. This is another one where we could see something great for daf punk or Ma Macklemore and lewis. What do you think . I any you can never count out the force of nature that is taylor swift. She has a lot of supporters among voters and in the music industry, but im thinking macklemore and lewis, this is really looking like their year. They had a number of hit singles that got acclaim that a lot of people in the case of same love certainly got behind the message. So voters can feel good about picking this album even if theyre a little wary of picking what is essentially a debut album which is not a band with a background or where people can say even where Lawrence Hill won, she had already had success with the fujis. So this is a band that seemed to come out of nowhere. I do think they have a very strong chance in this category. Weve had upsets in the best new artists in the fast, but we think this may be an easy year out of all the categories. Is this a shoein for macklemore and lewis . I think so with lord being out of running. A lot of people are surprised she wasnt nominated, this 17 yearold darling who seemed to come out of nowhere. Ma la more and lewis are macklemore and lewis are another kind of indy success story. I love kendra lamars album. I think their name was on everybodys lips and their songs were in everybodys heads. Thanks for being with us. We look forward to hearing from you tomorrow. Lots of good choices and tomorrow well look at the breakout artists who got snubs.

Some drivers are racking up hundreds of dollars in fees just by traveling on those lanes. Late last year we shared the story of one driver who ended up with more than 500 in fees because of a problem with his transponder. Because he didnt pay his tolls on time, each toll went to a Collection Agency and cost him 100 each. Another man is facing 4,400 in penalty costs because he took the lanes by mistake. When his bills came with fees as high as 50, he wrote the company that manages the claims to dispute the charges and wrote to us. Its a Good Opportunity for to us remind you that if you take the 495 express lane, its up to you to make sure you did not miss a toll. You travel the lanes by accident, go to the website within five days of your trip without the ezpass to avoid bigger penalties, but whatever you do dont ignore the bills. They will only grow in size and could land you in court if you do not make plans to handle them. I know this is a pet peeve and there are plenty others out there. Log onto tellwusa9. Com and share your stories. People living in cuba have a pet peeve about their autos. Most of them cannot afford them. Havana is easing restrictions, but this change comes with a very hefty price tag. Reporter this is where many cubans dreams of owning a car come to die. For the First Time Since the revolution cubans can now buy cars from the states without special government authorizations and endless bureaucracy. Them just need cash, lots of it. They just need cash, lots of it. Translator too expensive. I dont know why they did that. The state protects workers. Reporter expensive is an understatement. At this lot the government sells used cars. Many are beaten down rentals that have already been driven tens of thousands of miles, but the cars sell for more, much more than brandnew models outside of cuba. 90,000 is the price tag for a 4yearold used jeep. Dont bother trying to haggle. Thats a bargain, however, compared to prices at this dealership for new cars where a sedan sells for 262,000. There were no customers when we visited, not surprising in a country where the average salary is only about 20 a month and few can afford to buy something the price of a ferrari. The car sales its said will go to fix the countrys faltering transportation system. Translator he doesnt need a car. I work 25 to 26 kill meters from where i live. I car is a luxury a car is not a luxury. Reporter cars are so scarce here that classic automobiles from the 1950s are still one of the most reliable forms of transportation. A reminder of how after the cuban revolution took power getting a new car took special permission and status. Buying a car in cuba meant navigating a labyrinth of red tape. First you had to prove to the government how you were able to afford a car and then you h to apply for an authorization had to apply for an authorization letter to tell you how much you could spend on a car and even with the letter in hand it would be years before you had a car. Those authorization letters were typically only given to cuban doctors, athletes and other Government Employees who worked for years abroad are now worthless. Translator these are people who left to make sacrifices and give prestige to this country. Why are they going to do that now . Reporter cuban state media has had little to say about the backlash to the car sales. According to the islands rumor mill, they will soon be suspended and prices lowered, but a handmade sign posted by employees at a car lot in havana disputed that speculation saying despite rising anger, the sales will go on.

In texas a Police Officers act of kindness has gone viral and it is melting hearts around the world. Officer aerial soturo was on patrol driving through an apartment complex and saw a boy playing football by himself. He could have kept going, but he decided to stop.

Rosenberg Police Posted dashcam video of the two playing football on facebook and hours later it had about a quarter million likes. Police there say its a good example of their emphasis on Community Policing and showing residents that police and residents dont have to be adversaries. They can be neighbors.

Driving home tomorrow afternoon is not a good idea. Here is the system, does not look really intimidating does it .
