would be pretty mild and it certainly will be tomorrow night. we have another big change to talk about. let me explain what's going on in the atmosphere. we had our chilly conditions over us and a northeast wind supplied by the big h over the atlantic ocean. that is an area of high pressure and it is moving out of the way tonight. that warm air that you see just down to our south and west is going to be pushing in overnight and we are going back to the 80s tomorrow. it looks like we'll have a day in the mid-80s but i also have to tell you just as we're watching the warm air come in, we will also see a stronger cold front coming. it looks as though we may be dealing with some afternoon thunderstorms, some of which could be strong to severe. we're going to be watching for the possibility of those gusty thunderstorms to maybe even have some hail stones with them. so that's what we'll be keeping an eye on tomorrow afternoon probably between iii and 6:00 the -- between 3:00 and 6:00 the possibility of some strong storms. meanwhile tonight it will just be a lot of clouds out there. a spotty shower or maybe a spot of drizzle possible in a few spots but otherwise we think

boy who does not understand what he's done or what he's drawn with an i.q. of 75 should for the be charged with a felony. i find it appalling. it's outrageous. >> her son is now facing as you heard a

say to of the three men are thought to have provided money to shahzad. what is not known is if they knew about the times square bombing plot or were unwittingly used to funnel money to shahzad. governor deval patrick said he was consulted by investigators before the raid took place. >> in anticipation of this operation, i've been fully briefed by my public safety team and joint terrorism task force. >> reporter: as he tried to brief congress, the attorney general was grilled by both democrats and republicans over the government's domestic antiterrorism efforts and why big cities like washington and new york aren't getting a bigger share of security funds. >> some of the funding decisions made by this administration have been mind numbingly, insanely wrong. >> our national security policy should consist of more than just dumb bombers and smart citizens. >> reporter: the question now, though, is how much more information will faisal shahzad share with federal officials and where that information will lead. investigators say shahzad used a series of couriers both in the united states and overseas to transfer funds. it's a method often used to not raise red flags among law enforcement. tom fitzgerald, fox 5 news. we have some good news coming out of the gulf of mexico tonight. right now it appears the oil spill has not seriously affected sea creatures, at least not yet.

light poles every two years. >> reporter: the d.c. department of transportation says the pole that came down on miller's car was last inspected in 2008 and received a passing grade of fair condition. >> we really feel that there's a good possibility that the pole was compromised in some way. in addition to the rust which was evidence. you could -- evident. you could see it in the picture. maybe something jarred it or something happened to the pole. >> reporter: miller escaped serious injury when the pole came down during rush hour. he says there was no wind, just a little bit of drizzle. miller took these pictures of the pole which show a considerable amount of rust. the damage to his van was one thing. but the lack of concern he says he got from d.c. officials when he called wednesday morning was another. he says he just wanted someone to say they would inspect the poles. that didn't happen until today when he received a call from the department of transportation. >> i feel bad for him that he was not getting the type of feedback that he wanted and i wanted to make sure that he knew we absolutely took this very seriously and that we were going to address it. >> it was very responsive and actually even apologetic for the way i was treated in this and the assurance that the poles were being inspected is really what i was wanting to hear yesterday. >> reporter:

certainty. managers want decisions now so that fare card machines, fare gates and signage can all be changed before july 1. but squabbling among the jurisdictional representatives to the board has intensified. here's a sample from the finance committee. >> this chart is assuming something that we are not agreeing to. >> i do not have a vote in this committee but i can tell you right now i would

been a little over two weeks since our first story aired. the door here at we buy cars is still locked. now, the name of the business tells you what they do. but it's the fact that they are the buyer of cars and the consumer is the seller that makes this a complicated situation under maryland law. a spokesperson for maryland attorney general doug ganzler sent fox 5 this statement. the consumer protection division is charged by statute with assisting consumers which are defined as the actual or prospective purchasers of goods or services. since the consumers dealing with we buy cars are the

little more than a screwdriver and a hundred bucks, you can make your home substantially harder to break into starting with a few 17 cent screws. >> longer screws actually can make the difference absolutely with kicking the doors. >> reporter: he says most developers use these cheaper half-inch screws to attach the metal strike plate. these pictures he says show how one kick can force those screws loose destroying the frame and making the lock useless. but a three-inch screw goes all the way through the frame and the wood support on the other side strengthening the doorjamb, making it tougher to break through. with just six more of the -- [ indiscernible ] >> this is the only way you can really stop them. >> reporter: it can stop them totally or takes more kicks? >> takes more

necessary. melissa dobbins tells me as quickly as thieves broke into her home, she's learned how to make herself feel more safe. >> it's -- it's much more secure now, it's not a one swift kick and all

80s. >> i was paying attention. we get the warm weather but we might have some storm activity. >> when you pop temperatures from the 60s like they were today and you get into the 80s and we have a trigger, then we could see some thunderstorms in the afternoon. i don't think everyone will see them but if you do see them, keep in mind they might have some gusty winds and hail stones with them. it's pretty quiet and cloudy tonight as we look live at the national cathedral. generally a dry day. there was a little bit of drizzle around this time last night and we were chasing the thunderstorms

approaching from the west, we are going to see some scattered thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon, some of which could be strong. they'll be gone by saturday morning and the good news is the weekend still in fine shape. might be a patch or two of clouds going by sunday afternoon but we think that will be it. so far so good as we head on into the weekend. temperatures 61 degrees in the city. baltimore 58 with the clouds around tonight it's not going to be a terribly cool night and in fact there's a lot of warm air just on the other side of west virginia. check out beckly at 69 degrees and

temperatures will rise fairly rapidly through the morning hours tomorrow. scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms. not a huge widespread outbreak but those of you who do see storms keep in mind they could have some gusty winds with them and the possibility of some hail. we think we'll be headed for the mid-80s tomorrow with a west to southwest wind. those are two headlines. warm with the possibility of some thunderstorms in the afternoon. by 8:00 in the morning 62 degrees. by noon 78 and by 4:00 85. i think that's around the time frame when we'll start to see the showers and storms developing around the region. check out the other high temperatures. fredricksburg, you could be as warm as 88 degrees. waldorf 86. germantown 85 and winchester 83 degrees. then the front comes on
