And they need to do what is best for all of us, the american people. In a moment well go to blake burman at the white house. He was listening to Sarah Huckabee sanders and the press conference where a lot of things came up including al franken. We have lanhee chen and former Deputy Assistant to president george w. Bush, brad blakeman. Good to see you twice. You know, we, i want to start on al franken, right . Because it looks like al franken, he is now out. The democrats pushed him out, brad blakeman. And they pushed him out, im wondering if because it was politically exfedayeen for them . In other words, i hate to be a cynic on this stuff.

Now they had al franken, that
Still there. And it is continuing to move its way off to the northeast. Thats the pattern for tonight. And well see this gradually starting to taper off. But heres a little closer look for you. And some of our areas where theyre seeing the light snow, its just accumulating on grassy surfaces. Nothing thats really sticking at all and thats good news and thats because the surface temperatures are above freezing. Im not going to rule out an icy spot here and there, but generally it will not be doing that at all. Rain with a little bit of snow mix and thats what happens.

Were talking temperatures into the 30s, 38 degrees i should say and here is a look at current temperatures elsewhere. Weve got 39 at quantico, 37 at winchester. 36 degrees at baltimore.

Bright side. We need the rain. Weve had a deficit and for the moment, umbrellas close, doctors some drops in the air. You can see the showers coming through, now theres nothing showing up on radar. The drizzle is too light. Some showers left to chestertown up 95 if youre going to delaware. The fog not as bad as it was early with visibility. Still two miles at dulles, but that is not really going to slow anybody down. Our average highs up to 70. Were not close to it. Were still hanging in the upper 40s and low 50s.
