But im monitoring some bigger storms way down to the south around richmond. Look at storm team 4 radar right now.

President obama also hinted this week that cuba will soon be removed from the u. S. List of state sponsors of terror. And Hillary Rodham clinton is expected to finally kick off her president ial campaign this weekend. But dont expect any big rallies, at least at first. The announcement will be made through social media. Her first appearances are expected to be small according to people familiar with her plans. Advisers say clinton hopes to keep the focus on voters rather than the candidate. Obviously her second run for the president and seems to be scaling things back this time around. Meet the press Moderator Chuck Todd joins us. What does that mean keep the focus on the voters and not the candidate . Heres what i was told from folks close to her. She is assessing whats gone wrong with 2008 and whats gone right in campaigns past. She looks at the new york senate model as something that went right. She maybes her announcement then it became a listening tour of new york. Granted the expectations were lower and it was different, but thats where she was comfortable. She was in small settings meeting with community leaders, doing more listening than talking. Thats what she wants to have in this at least the first month of the campaign. The biggest criticism she had eight years ago when she launched her campaign did it on social media then had a big rally in iowa. This time she wants to go to a house and living rooms and do that in New Hampshire and South Carolina for a month, to get her own sea legs hasnt done this in a while, and then sometime in may give the why im running for president big rally speech. All right. Thats coming sunday. Kentucky senator rand paul already announced that he is running. What are some of the challenges hell face beside the legacy of his dad . I think the biggest challenge is what lane you know the Republican Party is the multiple constituency subconstituencies, your social conservatives, Ted Cruz Mike huckabee want to be there. Theres your rank and file republicans, establishment types, Jeb Bush Scott walker. Paul has a unique ability to potentially bridge a lot of divides, but the Foreign Policy angle is something that most of the hes not in the same place on Foreign Policy as everybody else on the field. Lindsey graham has said one reason hes running for president is eventually to troll rand paul, which is to go after him, constantly simply on Foreign Policy. Were seeing the first hits on rand paul paid media came from republicans. So thats the odd challenge. He is what i call my dos eqis candidate. Hes not a conventional conservative. Hard to pin him down. It is. More to come on sunday morning. And oh by the way i have john kerry too. By the way. Its a packed show promise. You can join chuck on sunday morning at 10 30 here on nbc 4. Down to the wire for lawmakers in maryland as they continue to battle over the states budget.

Marys county down through the Northern Neck. This watch extends off to the east until 11 00 p. M. There is the potential for some strong potentially severe storms that could bring some hail and even some damaging wind to this area. So you can see the storms down there to the north. Its mostly rain showers for us. Again, the same frontal system thats moving through, some showers from savage right into d. C. Inside the beltway east toward areas like bowie. Eventually annapolis and clinton getting some of those rain showers, not seeing any lightning here either. East of culpeper headed toward hartwood in Fredericksburg Spotsylvania eventually route 1 and i95 getting some of that just rain. But look at the difference. Just a couple of miles away down into areas of the northern thunderstorm warnings that have been issued down through this area as well. One thats headed towards williamsburg. Another cluster further down i95 just south of richmond right now pap lot of lightning with these and possible rotation with these taking place as well.

Other locations starting around 34 to 35 degrees, almost cold for this time of year considering our average is right at 46. A cold start for sunday morning but twoorm 69 almost 70 degrees. I still think sunday will be the best bay dey out of the weekend. Early part of next week. Your chance of showers comes on tuesday right now with high temperatures hovering around 70 to about 75 degrees.
