Abc7 transportation reporter Brianne Carter set out to find out why. Brianne are we just that lucky . That remains the question tonight. There is not one simple answer. One thing we did notice looking at my t. S. A. , the app so many travelers use is look at the difference in wait times. Here it says one to ten minutes in some of the concourses. When you look at chicago, one of them says 31plus minutes. That could be even more. An hour or two because the app only lets you put in 31 minutes plus. So you just dont know but many say the wait is just too long. We reached out to t. S. A. To find out exactly what is causing the change city to city from what travelers are seeing. They say there is not just one factor that can be pin pointed when it comes to this. The t. S. A. Say there are a number of factors including the layout of the airport check point, staffing and the time of day. It comes down to the numbers of people flying. Listen to this. On monday at chicago ohare the t. S. A. Screened more than 88,000 travelers. That is 10,000 more people than the previous four mondays there at the same airport. With the surge we have not seen here in the d. C. Region. Overall we dont have the same volume of people that need to be screened either.

Michelle an unlikely admission from gin meteorologist has been dealing with her entire life. Jonathan we head to pimlico for preakness prep and how the soggy conditions could affect the race. Jonathan an eating disorder is a serious mental he surrounding it for a long time. Alison starling is here. One famous face we are used to seeing is speaking out on this. Alison part of our abc family. We know her well. Meteorologist ginger zee. Also come petting on this season of dancing with the stars. She said she battled anorexia as a child. Now she recently had a child of her own and just a few months later she was on dancing with the stars. Zee says it has been a big help for her coming back so soon after going through pregnancy and childbirth. But it was when she was younger that her mother identified a problem. I went to pick her up from the airport. In all honesty when she got off the plane and was walked toward me i almost collapsed. She went from 90 pounds down to about 70. After college is when it started to get better but with years and years of therapy. Al mention therapy. That is a serious issue. As kimberly suiters found out a lot of insurance policies do not cover eating disorders. One family is fighting to make sure that changes so others dont endure the pain they went through. Generous, smart, beautiful. 19yearold leslie, sophomore seemed to have it all. Until september 29, 2000. She said to me at one point im going to die. I said you arent going to die. She said mom, im going to die this time. For five years leslie suffered from anorexia and bulimia. Insurance covered next to nothing. Her family paid out of pocket for therapist, nutritionist, psychologists trying to save her. The general practitioner basically said leave her alone. Shes fine. Just leave her alone. She will work this out. We stupidly followed that very, very bad advice. It was five week died. Kimberly after a night of binging and purging her stomach burst.

Every day she catalogs reports of denied residential care, rejected resideial treatment. Missed opportunity. Insurance cards determining which one lives and which one died. For families like the georges, their tragedy happened 16 years ago. Theyre astonished that change hasnt come here. What is standing in the way . Access to treatment is one of the biggest barriers. Some Health Insurance plans will exclude eating disorders. It was lifesaving. For me it was. Kimberly as an undergrad at g. W. , katie was not considered sick enough. Without seven months of intense therapy at the renfroe center she would not have survived. It wasnt enough to cover . No. You would see people here one day and not the next because the insurance didnt cover it. Fight on capitol hill right now to force insurers to offer the full range of coverage. Because even though eating disorders can be fatal, they dont have to be. It feels like yesterday. I wake up and i think maybe it didnt happen. Birdiebirdiekimberly kimberly. Alison to heart breaking. They are track legislation to have insurance coverage. We checked in and the bill is marked up next month and is expected to pass both the summer. That is very encouraging. Update for you. Back to ginger zee. It does so much for someone with her recognition to speak out. It has to be a difficult thing to do. It brings up so much awareness. Michelle that show is so popular. Younger audiences watching will be able to connect with her on that front. Jonathan the crazy part is, i remember in hospital i lost a good friend to anorexia. None of us at the time knew what to do. You didnt even know if you should say something. Two weeks later after everybody was plugged into it, it was too late. She died. Its horrible. People taking it seriously with stories like that go a long way. Thank you. Time now for a check of the traffic situation. Jamie sullivan joins us. This is a celebratory day.

It will take you 22 minutes from the 14th street bridge continuing closer to the capital beltway near the mixing bowl. Then if you are going to be traveling in that northwest stretch, slow traffic for you. Take a live look. Right near river road. You can see some of that heavy traffic.

Conditions in northwest washington. Its not changing too much. I think we see more of that in the afternoon and through the day on friday. Allergy levels. High for tree 308en tree pollen. Moderate. The high mold spores because of the wet grounds. We dry it out over the next 48 hours. Number wise. Sunshine goes a long way. Pop it up to 66 in Reagan National. Still cloudy north and west. Mid50s, upper 50s reported. 642 at 65 in baltimore. So, got a bit of a frontal system coming through. The showers are breaking up as they come eastward. We mention the isolated showers this evening and tonight. Maybe even early tomorrow morning. After that, its cloudy. The skies will brighten a bit. We take the future cast through the morning. Few showers early on. But then they dissipate as we get through the day. It shows showers tomorrow evening. That is overdone. It will be partly cloudy. However, friday is the day. With everything out of the question as far as rain goes. We will enjoy sunshine. But it wont last beyond friday afternoon. The clouds are back in. Then we will deal with a storm system out of north georgia and eastern tennessee. That will bring rain south and east of washington. It will be just a rainy day on saturday. With the cool temperatures. Only 59 degrees. 71 degrees on sunday. Isolated shower possible. Both sunday and monday. Highs lower 70s. Finally if you can believe this, we do, its going to change and warm up with a lot of sunshine tuesday, wednesday, thursday. Repeat a big 80 degrees. Jonathan yea michelle it has been a long time. Thank you, doug. Well, who could forget the preakness stakes last year . The second jewel of the triple crown. Jonathan we may see similar conditions this weekend. Kathleen is in baltimore to tell us how an important element could influence the race. This is interesting if its deja vu from last year. I know. We are worried about it. That element is this. Check it out. This is a dirt on the track now. You can see this is sticking together. That is because it is a little bit of wet. Because we have had our share of rain like you have at washington, d. C. Check out the drainage system here. That is how much water is in the drain right now. Right now the crews are working hard because they are worried about potential rain they have been grooming the track. Six trucks, each loaded with 20 ton of dirt help build it up. The one mile oval is 70feet wide. Head of maintenance is danny fink, sometimes called the dirt keeper. He is preparing for what is in the forecast. Right now im trying to keep it consistent. Before it rains we have to encoo it tight, packed down so the water runs off. Its better for the horses. You are looking at the track right now. You can see this is the problem. Puddles are building up. Of course, we havent had a lot of rain. If we have a lot of rain on saturday that could be trouble. They will have the extra crews out here trying to make sure puddles dont build up. They will have three tractors running as well to keep you the dirt smoothed down. Live at pimlico, abc7 news.
