A little sun trying to break through. Looking east, we had some overnight showers. Now on the Eastern Shore and we have a large area under a Flash Flood Watch including Northern Virginia into the central Shenandoah Valley. Some of the storms tonight could produce enough heavy rain to produce flooding up through central maryland as well. Watch out for high water tonight. Youre traveling and going around this evening. Right now though, no problems. No problems all the way until 5 00, 6 00, and out of the mountains, but after that around 7 00, some thunderstorms start to roll in the panhandle of West Virginia, from martinsburg up to hager town. Then into Loudoun County and fauquier and up across the potomac into Montgomery County, Prince William, stafford and spotsylvania and then 9 30, 10 30, 11 00, coming through washington and into the Eastern Suburbs by 11 00, 11 30.

The bear was spotted eating from a bird feeder in the river Point Community in leesburg yesterday morning. Animal services in Loudoun County are asking you to remove bird feeders because bears love to snack on them too. So theyre bear feeders for some people.

The bear will go after the bird feeder first. A ban on heading the ball in soccer may reduce the number of concussions. A new study by the university of colorado says the ban would help eliminate player on player contact though. The study says players are more likely to get a concussion during heading the ball than any other soccer plays. But its not the only cause of injury. The injury comes as players made contact as theyre heading the ball. The study shows most injuries reported in soccer are to lower parts of the body, not to the head. Most injuries again because of all the kicking. Thats why they wear the shin guards. That makes sense, right . Some news4 your health that can help you questioning or have you questioning how long youre actually sleeping each night. This is especially true if you have insomnia. A new study that shows people arent great at judging how much theyre sleeping.
