first major busts of synthetic drugs and the majority of those drugs came from one store, the global discount tobacco store on allentown road. police seized hundreds and hundreds of packets of the scooby snacks at this store as well as other stores on marlboro pike, but they weren't able to close down the stores. coming up at 5:00, i'll tell you why these stores are back in business today. now what? that's the question one day after house majority leader kevin mccarthy abruptly withdrew from the race to become the next speaker of the house. the pressure is now growing on wisconsin congressman paul ryan who left the capitol a short time ago to fly home. he's repeatedly said he doesn't want to be speaker and there are indications he would be opposed by the same conservatives who

from now until 9:00 p.m. we'll deal with stormy weather and gusts from 35 to 60 miles per hour and potential with some of these isolated storms and if there's storms with winds that high there will be a severe thunderstorm warning issued and there is that possibility and rain chances come down by 9:00, 10:00 this evening. we're not going to go away and we're updating information on nbcwashington.com and doug is up in a few minutes with the weekend forecast. spencer stone is spending another day in the hospital after he recovers from multiple stab wounds. stone is one of the three americans who helped stop that terror attack aboard the french train back in august. he was stabbed wednesday night outside of a bar in sacramento. police released surveillance video showing what appears to be stone fighting with a group of people. he's the one in the long sleeve white shirt and a cab driver who witnessed the incident describes what he saw. >> he knocked out one guy after he got stabbed three times or four times, whatever it is. so he already going and he goes this way and he's fighting and after that he gives up, you know what i mean? >> stone was stabbed in the upper

warnings. nbc is on the ground in columbia to show you where the threat is now. soaring over d.c. landmarks. world war ii-era planes put on quite a show this afternoon and we have the new video in just moments. big crowds are expected on the national mall on saturday as organizers hold a rally for justice and equality. believe it or not it marks 20 years since the historic million man march. today a letter circulating around the capitol police is -- derrick ward is there to explain. >> we are on the west end of the capitol. you can see behind me the preparations for the observance, the 20-year observance of the million-man march and we have avoided what might be characterized as an imbrewing li on. it came from the u.s. capitol police and it was a letter written by an employee of the division of intelligence and information analysis. in this letter it characterized louis farrakhan saying he's been accused of enciting violence of both caucasians and police officers. that drew an immediate response from the organizers. >> this statement characterized the honorable louis farrakhan in a very uncomplimentary matter and as well, it also characterized those of us with him in ways that were completely inappropriate. in the wake of that meeting, was there a six-hour meeting with u.s. capitol police chief kim dine and organizers of the march. what came out of that was an apology and statement from chief dine who said that this letter has not been sanctioned by authorities in the capitol police department. it did not reflect their mission. they say that they are intent on making sure there is a peaceful and safe environment for people who want to exercise their first amendment rights and earlier there was a meeting with d.c. police chief and other law enforcement authorities here that are tasked with seeing that this all goes smoothly. organizers plan to see that it does and they lead peacefully as they did with the first one 20 years ago. we are live at the foot of the capitol. derrick ward. >> thanks, derrick. many of you get a chance to enjoy the aerial show. 17 world war ii-era planes flew over military landmarks. they took off over regional airport

our nation's freedom. sgloo >> i'm storm team 4 meteorologist doug kammerer. you can see we're in red mode. the reason, those storms will be moving in over the next couple of hours. nothing right now, we have a couple of hours to get ready for those storms that we move on through and you can see the rockville camera around parts of the area. sunshine, too. the temperatures have moved way up. up to 80 degrees and winds out of the south at 10 miles per hour and as the temperatures have gotten up into 80, 81 degrees we are looking at instability in the atmosphere and with that we have a cold front moving our way and notice the thunderstorms and nothing around the d.c. metro area and just off to the north and west and we're talking about morgan county around mart insburg and hagerstown and you can see even into northern portions of frederick county and thur montt and seeing strong storms there and right along the 15 and right back along 40 and 70 back toward hagerstown. strong storms and we do not have watches or warnings in our area and that may change, though, as we move on through the night today and we can see the severe thunderstorm warnings and a thunderstorm watch around the philadelphia and new york areas and wouldn't be surprised to see stronger storms in the region, too and that's what we'll be watching as we move on through the rest of the evening hours. if you see thunder and lightning, high wind will be the main threat here and heavy rain. it will be brief heavy rain and brief high winds. those winds could gust upwards of 40, 50, 60 miles per hour and they call them a medium threat and we do think we'll see storms, however, and we're not anticipating too much in the way of weather. >> 6:00, you can see the showers and storms around the region and by 8:00, they're down to the south around southern maryland and fredericksburg and by 10:00, this whole system moves out of here and behind it, it gets chilly around our region. waking up to numbers in the mid-40s in many locations and once the front goes through you'll notice a big difference and we're going for a high of 61 degrees and we'll talk much more about this and veronica will have the extended forecast for you and talk much more about your weekend in just a few minutes. i think a lot of us have been keeping one eye on our weather and another eye down south and the homeland security

closely watching 70 others. >> devastation is just unbelievable. >> south carolina's governor nikki haley is warning residents on coastal communities like georgetown to voluntarily evacuate. >> this your life and we want you to be conscious of the fact that we're trying to help you save it. >> reporter: the local emergency management officials have opened an emergency shelter, but they stress these are voluntary evacuations and that they are limited to mostly rural areas. meanwhile, more than 350 roads and bridges are still shut down. today the cleanup effort continues in columbia. gabe gutierrez, nbc news. overhead overhaul and the space bins coming to some new airplanes. >> traveling on the trains with dogs and cats. the brand new pet policy. beginning monday you can take your pets with you when you board some amtrak trains here in the northeast quarter. for an extra $25 passengers can take along their cats or small dogs on trips that are less than seven hours long. you have to make a reservation and your animals have to be in carriers and you have to keep them under your seat. amtrak says it's starting the service in our region after a successful launch in illinois. to read more about the new pet rules and the costs go to the nbc washington app. well, i had to put this on my facebook page. we have all experienced the struggle. you get onboard the plane and it seems like there is never enough room for everyone's bags in those overhead bins. boeing is working on a way to fit more bags by increasing the size of the bins. so at 7:37 we'll be able to hold 178 standard sized bags compared to the 118 they can squeeze in now. eight carriers including alaska airlines will equip their fleet with larger bins. >> customers have a lot of anxiety whether or not they can fit the bag on the plane and it alleviates the anxiety for them. >> where is the extra space coming from? by lowering the bins by two inches and taller people will have less room, and it will give most passengers easier access to the bins and light buttons. if you have an iphone you will have more options to use that phone and apple pay when you shop and dine. apple says it's expanding the service to more major chains including best buy, kfc, chili's and starbucks. it accepts apple pay at all 1400 stores and kfc and chili's plans to have it ready by next spring. they plan to take it to all 7500 locations over the next year. it is removing a number of ad-blocking apps from its store. it's over privacy concerns. certain apps install what are called root certificates and apple says those enable the app to monitor customer network data and could be used to compromise someone's personal information. developing now. the president meeting with families of the victims of last week's massacre in

[clap of thunder] i did not want to go out. [clap of thunder] but then i was like duh, just use your phone. mobile-deposit-techno-thingy to the rescue. i'm rayna. and i bank human at td bank. it would be a good idea right now to -- we are expecting high winds with a line of storms over the aerial the next couple of hours. there's a thunderstorm chance from now until 7:00 p.m. the storms are fairly likely that they'll come through our area, but some of these storms could produce high winds over 35, maybe as high as 50 miles per hour and it will be brief and fast moving. by 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. those storms are calming down and it will not be for the entire evening. already in pennsylvania, they have a handful of severe thunderstorm warnings that have been issued and if this line moves east and southeast as it continues dropping through maryland. we'll be seeing some of the same types of conditions. we've had reports of a few trees down because of the high wind, and it is advancing toward frederick, maryland, by 4:46. 4:58, and getting into the d.c. area around 6:30, 7:00 or so. it's plenty warm now and i'll show you just a few minutes ago just how fast the temperatures are dropping behind this front. i think we'll be in the 60s and maybe even 50s in a few locations by 11:00 p.m. as we get the rain out of here we'll talk about the upcoming weekend in a few minutes. right now we're working a developing story in houston. one person is dead and another wounded after a shooting near texas southern university. classes are canceled for the day and police may have a suspect in custody. officers are investigating whether this shooting is related to another shooting last night. >> a man crashed a drone near the white house this morning. park police say howard solomon iii was spotted flying the device near the washington monument and it landed on the ellipse and police gave him a ticket. >> we're getting a first look after the man who crashed his car into fort meade. this is a photo of dante small who crawled into a storm drain and hid out for 13 hours. police were tracing small on wednesday night when he ditched the car and ran off. small is facing robbery, assault and gun charges all in connection to a carjacking last sunday in baltimore. >> i'm meagan fitzgerald in montgomery county, where a woman posing as a psychic scammed a woman out of $77,000. >> erica ufie who also went by

victim to cure her and her family of curses she needed to fork over more than $77,000, when the victim asked for her money back police say ufie refused and fired back. a private investigator worked with nypd to make the arrest. we'll show you the video capturing moments of when psychic gina was arrested. president obama has just landed in roseburg oregon and they're already lining up to protest his arrival. he's going to meet with families of victims and survivors of last week's mass shooting and as jennifer bjork lund reports his visit is being met with controversy. the president visiting roseburg, oregon, just a week after the shooting at umpqua community college. a mass casualty event that left president obama visibly -- >> this happens every few months in america. >> a student opened fire before dying in what the medical examiner ruled to be suicide. a quinnipiac poll in the aftermath of the shooting shows that less than half of americans support stricter gun control laws and an overwhelming majority want background checks for gun buyers. the roseburg community has a minority of obama supporters. he got 35% of the douglas county vote in 2012, but his critics are outspoken. >> he is not wanted out here to push his agenda. >> i think just the fact that he's coming to meet with the families is excellent. >> while demonstrators opposed president obama's policies on gun control protest his visit, elected officials also opposed to gun control support the president. >> he is the number one elected official for our entire nation and by coming here he brings that whole feeling of the nation is behind us and in support of us. >> reporter: in a community divided by opinions on guns, to come together and heal during a debate that is sure to open old wounds. jennifer bjork lund, nbc news. nbc news is reporting that paul ryan has left the capitol and is headed home to wisconsin to talk to his family about whether he should consider becoming the next speaker of the house. ryan is considered by many to be the only man who can calm the fiercely divided republican caucus, but as steve handelsman report, turmoil may be the point. with house republicans begging paul ryan to be speaker, he told colleagues he'll consider this weekend what to do. >> back home in wisconsin, lawmakers are joking, paul's wife janna will make the call. their family life would take a hit if he says yes to be speaker like it would have if ryan were leched vice president in 2012. as ryan dodged today, the pressure was on. >> he'd be an amazing speaker. >> paul ryan has the clout and he has the stature. >> many of us believe he will answer the call. >> speaker candidate jason chaffetz is out if ryan gets in. >> i would love it if he did it. >> reporter: emboldened by success of republican outsiders, trump, carson, fiorina, tea partiers are calling ryan too much an insider. >> the american people want a fresh new face. >> dave brad is the one who beat eric cantor, john boehner's number two and now boehner's leading and kevin mccarthy steps aside and two staunch conservatives and even one common compromise in congress. >> maybe it would be best to watch it burn and eviscerate any last vestige of the establishment and that includes ryan of the ways and means commit. >> that's why he said no to be speaker before he said maybe. >> just weeks away are big fights over the budget that could shut down government and this kind of chaos could continue even if paul ryan says yes. i'm steve handelsman, news 4. pat? sweaty, dehydrated and too weak to stand. the stunning discovery in the back of a truck. >> allegations of drug, sex assault and harassment. an exclusive sneak peek at an interview with bill cosby's accusers. >> i'm melissa mollet. i do have stations that will be closed on the orange line, dunnmooring and west lawn church will be closed this weekend and on the silver line, trains will replace trains through weston and new carrollton. as we're taking a big look here at metro red line running on a normal schedule this weekend. green line normal as well, blue and yellow also normal again. silver and orange your only issue with back with the showers and thunderstorms with storm team 4 radar. the strongest of which have stayed well to our north. carol county and baltimore county and well north of the region. this line coming through frederick county and this line is moving down to the southeast and east-southeast and the heaviest storms in through carroll county and those will continue to move along to the north of i-70 and notice around mart insburg and hagers town and we're seeing this develop and this line could just continue to develop as it makes its way down to the south and east. that's something to watch if you live around frederick and loudoun county and winchester and watch out over the next hour or so. we think these will be in and around the d.c. metro area right around 6:00, 7:00 tonight and the boundary and the cold front and behind it much cooler air for the weekend and we'll talk about that coming up. police body cameras are giving us a close-up view of this. dramatic moments when officers rescued dozens of undocumented immigrants from a big rig. in all, they found 39 men, women and children crammed into the back of a sweltering trailer. it happened in san antonio, texas. some of these people were too weak to stand up. >> it's just a surprise to see that many people inside a hot trailer. they were all sweaty, dehydrated and they just want out. >> police say a good samaritan called

could even see an isolated and potentially strong and potential thunderstorm come through with this line over the next couple of hours. you can see on storm team 4 radar online and it drops out of pennsylvania and there is a very, very small possibility and we could see a little bit of hail and a main threat from the storms that is getting high wind and moderate to heavy rain. so this part of the line, i-83 right back toward areas of 270 there pulling down to the south and east are 45 miles per hour and approaching areas of eldersberg by 5:04 and gai gaithersburg and they'll get into the d.c. area by 5:00 and 7:00. >> this is your future weather and there's 7:00 with the line dropping in. fredericksburg is getting wet with a few isolated severe storms and not everybody will see crazy storms this evening, but know that this will be impacting roads with the potential for moderate to heavy rain. by 8:00, 9:00, it should exit areas in the northern neck and look at 11:00 p.m. clouds and temperatures are dropping. as far as temperatures go for tomorrow morning it will be quite chilly. the storm chances are highest here around 7:00, 8:00 and we'll start to see the rain chances come down from around 9:00 to 10:00 p.m. this evening and our temperatures have been mild, upper 70s and it got up to 80 degrees and fredericksburg, cooling to 77 and 79. we had some cooling temps here around cumberland where they dropped into the 50s and 60s just behind this line of rain that came through. as far as early tomorrow morning, how chilly will it be? 45 to 55, you will need a jacket this weekend and maybe even a sweater if you plan on being up and out early sunday morning. tomorrow morning will be breezy, as well and it's not until the afternoon when the wind starts to die down. breezy sunshine for tomorrow and there are our temperatures and only into the mid-60s? those are temperatures that we've seen for overnight lows just a couple of days ago. >> if you'll go pumpkin picking, 67 and 65 at 5:00 p.m. and after the weekend it looks like columbus day is looking like 75 degrees and we'll talk about the extended forecast and more on today's storms with this being a weather alert afternoon for us. we're getting several developing stories in the newsroom right now including one in fairfax county where we're about to get a look inside the home of a murder victim. jurors will get to see crime scene photos at charles severance's murder trial and julie carey will join us live? ten minutes. a massive, synthetic drug bust in prince george's county. >> hundreds of packets of scooby snacks seized yesterday. right now the stores that were raided are open again. in 20 minutes mark segraves joins us to explain why police can't shut these stores down. today bill cosby is expected to be interviewed under oath for a civil lawsuit and involves one of the dozens of women who claimed he sexually assaulted her. julie huff said it happened when she was just 15 years old. despite the allegations cosby has never been charged with a crime. it comes on the same day nbc is airing a special edition of "dateli "dateline" featuring interviews with some of his accusers. >> how many of you believe you were drugged by bill cosby? how many of you believe bill cosby raped you? >> a powerful exclusive tonight on "dateline" nbc. for the very first time in one room, the nearly 30 women who have made accusations against bill cosby speak out. nbc's kate snow interviewed the women about their claims. she joins us now in new york city. kate, many of these women have done individual interviews before. how did you get all of them together in one room? >> pat, we started working on this months ago and at the time of our interview we reached out to everyone who had gone public at that time and offered them the opportunity to come speak with us. 27 women agreed to come to that group interview and two others in another setting. so 29 women total and that's how we did it, but i guess the important part is why they wanted to talk. they felt very strongly that it's time for their voices to be heard and not just for bill cosby, but in their view because it might help other women who are victims of rape and sexual assault to feel empowered or speak out. >> were any reluctant to get together or be seen in a group this large? >> no. i think those that agreed to come to los angeles, we flew them to l.a. to a ballroom at a hotel there. they were ready. they were ready, but i won't say it was easy. pat, in that room, you can imagine i've never done an interview that large before and certainly not on such an emotional, intimate subject for these women. there were a lot of tears and a lot of hand holding and people feeding off of each other and i think what the viewer will find tonight is you start to hear patterns and you notice similarities in their stories and i ask a lot of questions about their similarities. >> how did they handle the questions that some people have raised about this and the emotion of the whole story? >> certainly, there are some tough questions that i had to ask, pat. as you know, bill cosby's never been charged with any crime and his attorneys have repeatedly said that he denies allegations against him and they've made some strong statements against some of the women. so i had to throw that all at them. for example, i asked did any of you file a police report at the time of the alleged incident and no hands went up. so none of them filed a report at the time and none of them went to the hospital for a rape kit at the time. they have reasons they said they didn't. they said they were a shamed and they didn't think anyone would believe them and it was a different time back then. many of the allegations date back decades. >> kate snow reporting from new york, we'll be watching. thank you so much. >> that is "dateline," the cosby accusers speak tonight at 9:00 here on nbc. >> something to keep an eye on. >>
