Kelly it looks like things are starting to clear out. They actually are. We start with storm scan. A cluster of heavy thunderstorms with a beeline in the washington metro, moving northwest southeast. You look behind, is there anything more developing to give us another shot of showers and storms . Really isnt, just an isolated shower. Storms affecting Southern MarylandPrince Frederick. Newburgh will get storm activity and fredricksburg in the clear but an isolated shower in north winchester. This is in line with forecasts showing theres not much to happen behind. This should be the event. Were seeing blue sky at the harbor. Were looking at sunshine, a couple of clouds, temps falling into the 70s. Humid with all the rain that fell and looking nice by 9 00 p. M. 10 00 towards midnight. Its warmer as we finish the weekend and then we need to talk about how long this persists. Any break in the humidity and Storm Chances . Well discuss it coming up.

Folks arriving in droves at the Washington Monument. Over here, we have a little bit of the security were seeing.

Richard the deploruous fourth. Its freedom, its america the celebration of our country. Richard living up to its name today. In washington, d. C. Very patriotic. Richard but this year is about high security with road blocks, guard humvees and barricades. Security is a little bit of a hassle. Richard for some, the palisades parade is a throwback. Were from a small town which normally you dont see. Richard on the National Mall, be prepared for security checkpoints but most visitors dont mind. First in line, to the got here at 10 00 a. M. Because ive always wanted to do it. Richard that gentleman, one of the first in line for the fireworks, which begin at about 9 00. The concert tonight at 8 00.

Rebecca dan is a volunteer from the American Legion and says he likes the home town feeling of community and safety but acknowledged even this fourth of july, they stepped up security measures in light of heightened concerns over possible terrorist threats. Unfortunately, i think they are bringing it to america. Rebecca do you have a concern about a gathering of this size . Youre always on the lookout. We have to be diligent in making sure people are aware of whats going on around them. Rebecca so, kelly the festivities are over here. You can see green has cleared out except for this one sole red, white and blue patriot celebrating in the fountains dedicated to the men and women who have served our country in the military.

Hopefuls pressed the flesh at parades in new hampshire. Happy fourth. Jeremy jeb bush seemed to enjoy working on a holiday. New hampshire voters are discerning, theyre educated and it gives me a chance to tell the jeb story and talk about ideas that i think are important.

Kelly and the original Washington Monument reopened today. The monument located in baltimores mount vernon neighborhood had been closed for renovations since 2010. The city is celebrating with a country fair with entertainment baking contest and colonial style food. The cornerstone was laid 200 years ago today. And the new find about bald eagles in virginia and what it means for the birds survival. Searching for answers, the recent rash of shark attacks. First, a developing story what were learning about a deadly stabbing. Kelly developing right now, Police Investigating a deadly stabbing at the Noma Gallaudet metro station in northeast and only on 7, an upclose look at the crime scene. A passenger shot this video from a passing train. Abc 7 caught up with him and asked about the emotional situation on the platform. A lot of Police Personnel on the metro platform. We also saw a lot of people consolg each other. We saw a Couple Holding each other, crying. So we knew something serious had to have happened there. Kelly as of now, metro passengers can get off trains at noma but no one is allowed to board there. Scientists arent sure whats behind the recent spate of shark attacks along the north and South Carolina coasts. There have been 11 this year. One possible explanation is warmer water temperatures near the coast. Another theory, Drought Conditions are creating an environment along the shore where higher salt levels attract more fish and shark. None of the attacks have been fatal. Bald eagles are back. The birds pollution on the rebound in virginia. The staggering numbers just coming out from researchers. And devon is tracking your fourth of july forecast. What you need to know before you head out to set off those kelly theyre symbols of america and tonight bald eagles are back in record numbers along virginias james river. Survey teams say 236 eagle couples introduced 313 offspring this season, helping to bolster the population numbers. As recently as 2000, there were only 56 eagle pairs along the river and in the mid 1970s, those birds were nearly wiped out by pesticides. Good to see them making a comeback. Devon they were on the endangered species list for so long. They may be threatened but love to see the comeback. The comeback of the sunshine is out there right now. I hope you didnt get too concerned and think, fireworks were in jeopardy here. Maybe youre tuning in, you have a link at the National Mall or r. F. K. Heres a look at National Harbor with sunshine coming on through. Just looked at the latest information coming in and it goes in with whats been there the last hour or two as storms arrive, this would be our main event and clearing out by the fireworks display around 9 00 p. M. A cluster of storms went through the heart of washington metro, northeast to southwest view, along a weak cold front coming in. On doppler radar, we will go first to Southern Maryland where the action is right now. Thats the last of the storms. My only concern was that Southern Maryland could see storms linger closer to 8 00 p. M. Or 9 00 p. M. But theyll be out for you, too. So from Prince Frederick lexington park, newburg, theyll be done with storms. The Movement Clear to see. We have been watching whats been going on north and west and possible redevelopment of showers and storms but we havent seen it. This area of low pressure trailing this weak cold front is out into the atlantic, heading farther to sea, helping to pull away the moisture. What we do is warm up tomorrow on sunday to finish the weekend. Slim chance of a widely isolated shower or storm but its a weak upperlevel system that spins around and by monday, will bring more storms our way and allow temperatures to warm in between with sunshine sunday monday, into next week. The 9 00 future cast forecast, one isolated chance remaining. Starting humid tomorrow morning if youre up early on july 5 me neither slight chance of isolated shower or storm. Nationals been on a streak, two wins in a row. First pitch tomorrow night 8 08 nationally televised game, should be a great night for baseball. Scattered storms coming back monday. Temperatures staying around lower to mid 80s but feeling hotter with the humidity factored in. Sevenday forecast, by my count this has been in place for about four weeks and doesnt break any time soon, heat and humidity, Storm Chances early every day. Tomorrow the Storm Chances the lowest for the week. Kelly you mentioned the nats being on a roll. Robert they get the win, its only two out of three. They couldnt stay healthy. The nats started early in the day and bats started early in the game and strasbourg show was back. Details next and now, the toyota sports desk, brought to you by your local toyota dealers. Robert well start with baseball, early action for the nats 11 00 a. M. Start with the world champs, not wasting time in this one. Bottom of the first Michael Taylor swings at the first pitch from madison bumgarner, drives it deep left. Its a leadoff home run. Havent seen that in a while in d. C. 10, nats. Two batters later, bryce harper turns on one. Thats out of here, number 25 for harper. Its a tworun shot. Then in the fourth, the strasburg soap opera continues. Take a look at that pitch to jake peavy. Looks like hes in a little pain. A couple of batters later, looks like it gets worse. He would leave the game but nats would win 93. Heres stras afterwards. It was pretty tight. I iced it a couple of times. Dont really have an explanation. Everything felt good. Robert sticking with baseball, oswhite sox. Top of the ninth os down one. Chris davis smacks this one. It looks like its gone but Avisail Garcia robs him, saves it for the white sox. That hurts. The final for this one 32. At the wimbledon, Roger Federer is in the fourth round, the seventime champ defeating sam groth. Federer lost his first set but came back strong in the fourth, wearing down the aussie. He advances 64 64 67 62. The World Cup Final is set. It all goes down tomorrow, rematch of 2011s final, u. S. A. And japan tomorrow at 7 00. Team u. S. A. Can still taste 2011 and its not a good taste. Japan would take the last world cup title against the two on a penalty kick after a 22 draw. This is what its all about. Youve got your rematch so what are you going to do with it . This is why you spend all those hours doing stuff you dont want to do and sweating and pouring all that into it to get to a final is incredible and to know what it tastes like to lose one is not incredible but its a lot of motivation. Were confident. We know we have the team to go out let it no matter who we play. Robert joey jaws chestnut, the human garbage disposal, is no longer the nathan hotdog eating champion. He was upset by matt megatoad. Hes not that big of a guy, hes smaller than chestnut. It doesnt make sense to me kelly. And a final note, sonia the black widow thomas came in second on the womens side, eating 31 hotdogs. Kelly oh, my gosh. Women are doing this, too . Robert i know, right . Kelly its difficult for me to watch. Robert i cant watch it. Kelly but i imagine water helps everything go down. Robert it seems that way but i dont know. Kelly i have no taste for hotdogs now. Done with kelly we will have fireworks after all. Devon theyre going to go off. Were watching one small shower behind the main line of storm. Southern maryland, your storms pushing away so by 9 00, storms are gone. But isolated showers near winchester but closer to sunset those will fade, as well. Dropping into the 70s for fireworks tonight, should be a great night. Just remember what we were reporting earlier from rich, maybe bring more of something to sit on, a chair instead of the towels. Kelly i was sitting on a blanket yesterday when it rained. Not the place you want to be. Thank you for watching. Wishing you a happy fourth. Welcome to world news tonight. On this fourth of july, a celebrating nation on alert. Thousands of officers on guard, in the air, on the ground, from the National Mall to the vegas strip. The guns out, dogs, too. Our team, right there as police step up patrols from coast to coast. The fireworks display taking a terrifying turn. Oh, my god. Hot shells flying into a packed crowd, injuring spectators. How a holiday show went horribly wrong. July 4th washout. Millions facing drenching rains in the southeast. Mother natures wrath and glory on full display. And, thieves smashing through glass, taking off with the whole atm and all the cash inside. The American City where atms are going, going, gone. And, broken streak
