Any chance this is going to impact the drive home . Not in the metro washington area. Looks like the rain is probably going to arrive in the western suburbs a little after 7 00 and into the city shortly thereafter. At the moment its cloudy and 69 outside the weather center. The clouds are on the way. Looking eastward toward Andrews Airforce base, that area, down river, some blue sky but the other way off to the west clouds are making progress in a hurry. The first round of showers now just south of winchester, front royal, so a few heavier downpours there are being picked up just north of strasburg. A little further west there is even more action to deal with. A real nasty line of thunderstorms and a number of tornadoes. In fact, the severe storms just posted a tornado watch for northeastern kentucky, southern and southeastern ohio. Western west virginia. We think those storms will diminish once they cross the appalachians but an isolated thunderstorm later tonight certainly not out of the question. Upper 60s, lower 70s. 73 reagan national. Into the evening, rain will develop after 7 00. Toward midnight for the second round. We think that will come to an end and become breezy in the late overnight hours. A lot more to describe coming up shortly. Thank you very much. You can track conditions where you are right in the palm of your hand.

Well, the Washington Nationals swing for the series after a big win last night at San Francisco in the face of elimination. And tonight the nats face another one of these winner go home scenarios. Very stressful. Theyre playing game four at the National League division series. We have coastto coast Team Coverage of the nationals postseason drive. Well get out to our Susan Kennedy in San Francisco in just a moment. First, however, first things first. Lets talk about what changed last night. Well, i think they turned the tide yesterday. Now they just have to maintain the momentum and start to run with it again. I submit to you that now that the nats have Madison Bumgarner out of the way, they are in much better shape. Not only to survive but i think to win the series. With that said, gio gonzalez has to pitch his best game of the year tonight and that is a tall order. Angio will need support. Im not putting it all on gonzalez. I think we saw the nats start to hit the ball again yesterday at at t park. Folks, going into that game desmond, harper, laroche, and wood had combined for only four hits in 41 at bats in this series. Dennard span, 0 for 10 before yesterday. Washington generated seven hits in the 41 win and i think itll only get better from ere. Span with a flare into the opposite field. Hitting balls and just having fun. We got down. So to be able to come in today and get it off bumgarner was huge and get the momentum swing. Definitely huge. We really feel like weve been swinging pretty danged well in the series and its just something that, you know, the ball fell our way a little bit and it did. A sensational game yesterday. The nationals had gone 21 straight innings without scoring a run in the postseason. Seven scoreless innings yesterday before bumgarners error. Tonight the nats face Ryan Vogelsong who was the giants 2012 postseason hero. Tough game. Any time its a one and done, its a tough game but vogelsong has been jekyll and hyde as well. He went 0 for 4 in the month of september. Pretty exciting stuff. It is. Great drama. I dont know a man my age can stand all this. Incredibly stressful. It is. Its late, too. Yes. Only 6 07 on the west coast. There you go. Thanks. The nats take the field tonight, theyll have a small but very devoted contingent of fans in the stands who made the expensive Cross Country trip to cheer them on. Suzanne kennedy found some of those fans and continues our coverage live from outside at t park in San Francisco. Suzanne . Hi, gordon. Well, so many people say they are die hard Washington Nationals fans but, clearly, the people that made the Cross Country trek here to San Francisco are in a league of their own. Take a look behind me. These gates are going to open in about two hours. Theyve already got the tables out. To put etting ready the numbers up. When the gates open there will be a very small group of Washington Nationals fans wearing red in a sea of orange. The countdown is on for game four of the nlds playoffs at at t park in San Francisco. Anxiously watching the clock are tyler gates and his step mother. Season Ticket Holders from washington, d. C. , who were in the stands for last nights win and are hoping for another. Definitely a nail biter for us for sure. Hes going to go to third and throws it away. My stomach still hurts from it. Disappointed giants fans streamed out of the park last night, took their brooms, and headed home. Now the focus is on whether the momentum has shifted toward the nats. The guys have postseason experience. Theyre calm and ready for the game and i think gio is going to bring it. I feel like the guys are pretty atm up and i honestly feel like well be taking the series back home on thursday. Today in this city known for its iconic sights and funky neighborhoods, baseball was whats being talked about and whether the giants will clinch it at home or if the nats can force a game five. Theyre not going to quit obviously now two games up. Theyre a great team. I watched them all season. Jayson werth, and absolutely got some very good power on that team. Anything can happen. Anything absolutely can happen. Just a few moments ago right over here just to the side of the gate where we are at at t park the team bus rolled in and the players got off very quickly. I noticed on the field a few players were streaming out there. Then i noticed theyre out there playing frisbee. These guys are loose. Theyre trying to have a good time obviously feeling good after last nights game. Steven strasburg is out there throwing the disc around having a good time. Theyll have batting practice in about two hours here and hen game time is at 6 07 local time. Reporting live at at t park, suzanne kennedy, abc 7 news. Thanks, suzanne. Tough duty but you know somebody has to do it. We appreciate it. Count on abc 7 for complete coverage from San Francisco of tonights game and reaction win or lose. Suzanne kennedy and Horace Holmes will have live coverage on abc 7 news at 11 00. John gonzalez will have the latest on whats next for the nats on good morning washington tomorrow morning starting at 4 30 a. M. Suzanne is on frisbee watch tonight. Coming up here on abc 7 news at 5 00 a look inside the steps now being taken at u. S. Airports to try to stop the Ebola Outbreak before it spreads more in the u. S. Also, dozens of children given baggies of heroin at daycare. How that happened and who is defending the suspect tonight. Just one day after a Supreme Court decision cleared the way for same sex marriages to begin in virginia and four other states, big changes are already under way. Yeah. That includes changing a laundry list of laws, ordinances, and regulations. Our Northern Bureau chief Jeff Goldberg is live outside the county courthouse with the way these changes affect virginia. Gordon, the past few days we have seen same sex couples arrive at courthouses obtaining marriage licenses like here in old town alexandria, arlington, richmond, and across the commonwealth equally as fast the state is moving to implement some of the big changes. But not everyone is comfortable with what theyre seeing. The start of same sex marriages in virginia delivered plenty of joy and happiness along with another emotion. It is a relief just to feel like everybody else. Leann roselle lives in arlington but she and her wife linda got married in d. C. In 2010 because they didnt know when the day would arrive in virginia. Now that things have changed i dont think there is any going back at this point. Even filing state taxes together will be a pleasure. In virginia we had to basically lie and say were single. Now they will everything will be all above board and straight forward. Today governor mcauliffe signed an executive order directing state agencies to comply with the Supreme Court same sex marriage ruling, saying State Government is already well prepared to implement this landmark decision. That means plenty of new benefits including Health Insurance for thousands of state employees, hospital visitation rights, and the ability to file state taxes jointly, and adoption access. Now it is very clear that the marriages by same sex couples are valid and Everyone Needs to comply with that. None of this is cut and dry. Chris six is the pastor of mercy with alexandria presbyterian church. While the state is moving forward with gay marriage, six doesnt believe its the right direction. It might seem in the short term like were getting what we want and will be happier but well never be happier when we go outside of gods design. And the clerk we spoke with today in arlington believes there very well may be plenty of private Business Owners who will not provide benefits to same sex married couples based on religious or moral differences they believe. Many of those cases could very well end up in court. Live in old town alexandria, Jeff Goldberg, abc 7 news. Thank you. A baltimore native has taken his first walk amongst th the stars. Astronaut reed weisman joined an astronaut from germany for a spacewalk today. It was 260 miles over the earth. The walk outside the International Space station was to perform routine maintenance. When he first left the air lock weisman said, quote, weve almost got a full moon out here. Ifs beautiful. What an experience. Good for him absolutely. Mr. Claustrophobia here . Ou got to be kidding me. Not for you. Its easy talking about the weather we have two areas of rain. Scattered showers. Tomorrow looks really nice. Interesting pattern the rest of the week. Its going to keep us busy. Every day has a little change in the weather. Time lapse, one of our many hd weather cameras on the network. Annapolis and st. Marys elementary school, high of 70. 69 right now. Well let this run for a second to show you the beauty of the cloud cover, sunrise, clearing, sun out, and this kind of advance in the sky all day. Clouds and sun shall clouds and sun. Sunshine one and then the bottom of the ninth and the clouds rolled back in. Lets hope that does not happen tonight. Clouds rolling in tonight. You know what im saying . In good shape weather wise with temperatures in the 60s now. Just to the west, you already know whats happening. Its raining outside your door right now coming across interstate 81 areas of rain. This is round one and we make advances eastward to the metro air why this evening and closer to midnight the second round will come in. In the meantime cloudy and mild. Upper 60s to lower 70s around the entire area. Winchester 64. One of the coolest spots. 73 reagan national. 74 right now in quantico. Into the evening well see the areas of showers, eventually overnight well drop too the 50s. Showers expected to end around 4 00 or 5 00 in the morning and if we get in the clearing we could see the total Lunar Eclipse just as the nearly full moon is setting on the western horizon and reaches totality at 6 25 tomorrow morning. So pretty low to the horizon when that happens. If you were at a higher elevation, a place with clear visibility to the west you may get a little glimpse of it if the sky cooperates. This is round one, hour by hour. There we go. Theres round two coming late tonight. A lot of nasty thunderstorms and even tornadoes with the second batch across southern and southeastern ohio, northeastern kentucky. Tornado watch is in effect there. Now i think most of this will wash out. The heavy duty stuff across the mountains. I cannot say an isolated thunderstorm is out of the question for the viewing area later tonight. It will all move out of here in the Early Morning hours. Our future cast computer model is suggesting by 5 00 or 6 00 in the morning the rain will be out and clouds quick to follow. That bodes well for viewing the eclipse. If it is a little slower than that, youll know when you look out and cant see the moon because of the cloud cover. In any case we will progressively see clearing skies, breezy, wonderful weather tomorrow. The temperatures in the mid 70s. Delightful. Thursday will be delightful, too, with cooler air moving in. Well be in the lower 70s. Right now only 57 in columbus. 59 in detroit. This is the area of heavy duty weather as it approaches the mountains and lifts up some that will take some of the stash of often out of its sails and weaken things. Everything moving rapidly, High Pressure in control tomorrow and for the day thursday. But by friday, a glimpse of whats coming. Another system to the west is going to approach and i think friday will be a cloudy, cool, rainy day around here. Keep our fingers crossed the rain gets out for the weekend. No guarantees on that. Late tonight showers likely in the 60s, partly cloudy as we get through the morning. Breezy. Pleasant. 71 midday tomorrow. And then we hit friday with the rain. Clouds tomorrow. Well have more definitive word on the weekend but right now expect a rather cloudy and cool weekend. As far as the eclipse goes, 6 25 is when it reaches totality.
