maryland, you may not see any snow out of the first batch at all. to the north and west, snow, and heavily coming down at times, and that may overcome the very warm layer and ground. so you may see some accumulation even on the secondary roadways, but i am not worried about it being too slick. 8:00 over of the rain to the snow. and then we get really cold and we will see snowshowers tomorrow, and they could give us more snow, d.c. metro area and points south than accumulating snow, because it is going to be cold. how much snow in your area? down south, sorry. not waldorf or fredericksburg.

inexperienced in the schools, but last night to a tweet, president trump say s she is a reformer, and will our kids. >> and so, troy, devos has been criticized because she is a strong advocate fort charter schools and touchers. there are lots of charters in this region, and what are the listenering believing there is going to be an impact? >> there is a strong possibility from the people i talked to, that there is going to be a negative impact with her at the helm with the children's education, and some are concerned, because they want better educational opportunities for the children, and the big question that parents were telling me, why isn't there more of a focus on schools that exist already in the neighborhoods where they live. there are plenty of schools that could use new innovative learn willing and school, and so those concerns very strong. today, i spoke with adele coformer who is a former d.c. schools principal. and she said that voucherers give t- better education. so with the charter schools in d.c., it is important to understand how the schools work. i asked her how this could affect our quality of the children's education. >> when you delve into it, it means that i may give you $10,000 to attend the charter of yourself, or the surface, they are present iing the families wh a great opportunity, but what you are doing to them is burning in them another financial organization that many cannot afford. and now, the families will hold vouchers, and so they have to are recut the pie, and they are not making a new pie. >> yes, and excellent points burk some children have said that their children did better than attending a charter. >> yes, some parents are say hag their sde the schools, and it is a critical and stuff school, but they wanted to maximize their children's education. there are good successful story, but speaking to what ms. coethorn is saying that most of the problem is the cost. the amount goes above and beyond the voucher, so you have to consider the travel expenses of getting the child to and from school, and the special needs key yats a a la carte situation, and maybe you are incurring more costs than you were anticipating. there are real concerns for hitting the the family pocketbook. >> and what about the silencing of the senate of elizabeth warren who was reading a letter of coretta scott king about jeff sessions. >> it speaks to the motion that we are in time, and what i people payinging attention to all of the things happening with the interworkings of the government and maybe more than before because of president trump, because that silencing had a peculiar feel for some people. they did not understand that, why it happened that way. even with some of the rules, it did not seem like she was pursuing it in that way. and then the words of the great mrs. king were silenced in the situation where she had a front row seat to a lot of the issue tas are tied to jeff issuesk and said it is certainly unfortunate and glad that the letter is out there, because it will resonate and speak to why some people are not happy about this nomination. >> troy johnson, thank you. chris, here is the question, should elizabeth warren have been allowed to the speak out in the session against jeff sessions? it is the afternoon's survey. so far, a overwhelming majority of you say yes. you can weigh
