>> reporter: good morning, barbara. you know, if you drive this section of the beltway, this comes as no surprise. there's a lot of crashes. take a look here. this is part of the beltway that we're talking about, and highway officials say the blame sits squarely with drivers and not the design of the road. janis drives his towncar for a living, so he knows firsthand it's bad out there on the beltway. >> texting. you know, it looks like they're not texting, but they're, like -- >> reporter: it's no surprise to him that this four-mile stretch from 495 in montgomery county, from georgia av few to rockville pike, is the busiest and averages 260 crashes a year. some of them fatal. >> the other guy you want to go to the right, the other one want to go to the left, but they don't see each other, so they're, like -- >> reporter: state highway administration officials say nearly all of those wrecks have one thing in common. driver error. many told us they have to pay extra attention, because other drivers are distracted and driving dangerously. >> cut off on the beltway all the time. a little bit that i do drive on the beltway from here to 270 north, i can't -- i can't tell you how many times i get cut off, people not looking, zooming and my quarterpanel probably would have been hit a hundred times now if i wasn't paying attention. >> reporter: most of the hundreds of crashes from 2008 to 2013 were rear-enders. highway officials say calls by motorists driving too fast, not paying attention, and smashing into each other are even the jersey barrier, and if it rains, a crash is a guaranteed. >> people are doing whatever they're doing, talking on the phone, if it's four, five cars on the road, someone not paying attention, you'll still have a crash. >> reporter: to give this a little bit of per expectfecspec considering the sheer volume of traffic along the roadway, 260 a year really isn't that bad. it's much safer than, say, on a secondary roadway. but this is a good reminder that you've got to pay attention when you're behind the wheel. reporting live from silver spring, darcy spencer, news4. >> thank you, darcy. this morning, police in arlington are investigating what caused a driver to lose control, smashing into a westwood college building. this was the scene last night just before 8:30 on fairfax road in arlington. the car went over the curb, through the bushes, and right into the front of a building. the driver was taken to the hospital. no word yet on that person's condition. and right now, republicans are meeting on the eastern shore of maryland. coming up, what the house speaker is now saying about the chance at immigration reform. plus, we're following a developing story in kentucky as many asinine people are dead in a house fire.

about what their legislation will include, but house speaker john boehner says it won't be a comprehensive bill like the one the senate passed last year. >> you know, it's one then to pass a law. it's another thing to have the confidence of the american people behind that law as you're passing it. that's why doing immigration reform in a common sense, step-by-step manner helps our members understand the bite-sized pieces that helps our constituents build more confidence that what we're doing makes sense. >> many conservatives worry that boehner's plan will create a way for undocumented immigrants to become u.s. citizens. for more on immigration reform and the republican meeting taking place on the eastern shore, we're joined by mark murray, nbc's senior political editor. good morning. >> good morning, barbara. >> this is a change of direction what we're hearing right now from speaker john boehner. it wasn't long ago that the house republicans blocked any kind of vote on immigration, right? >> it does seem they are moving on immigration, and there does appear to be almost a thaw a little bit, where house republicans realize we need to get some things done right now, and we can work with the president on some of the issues. immigration among them. the question is whether the rank and file ends up buying that. we know where house republican leaders john boehner are. there are some other house republicans who support immigration reform. a lot of the rank and file doesn't. that's why you're seeing john boehner talking careful tones about a step-by-step approach, a piecemeal approach, making sure people realize this isn't an automatic gateway for citizenship for undocumented immigrants. he has to walk a careful line. it will be interesting to see what comes out of retreat. >> do you think something will come out of the whole immigration discussion now? >> we're supposed to end up getting a framework from republicans. whether the framework translates into legislation that can be voted on and voted out of the house, that remains another matter. >> house from the house speaker, a list of four bills that are stalled in the senate that he says needs attention. let's start with those, starting with job training. >> there is legislation that eric cantor, the house majority leader, has put together a skills act. and, barbara, this was an entire letter the republicans said, you know be we can work with you, mr. president, after your state of the union address. i was talking about kind of a thaw, and this letter seems to be another suggestion in the thaw. and what republicans are going -- particularly as it comes to job training, is the  situation in which the republicans say, hey, we passed our own job training program, you mentioned in the state of the union, why don't we come together and work. there does at least a magnanimous attitude. >> reacting to the polls you were talking about. let's talk about construction of natural gas pipelines. that's another issue. >> the republicans, the biggest thing they want is the approval of the keystone pipeline. president obama talked about all of the above on energy and the great energy expansion. this is one area republicans and -- where republicans want action from the president. >> we're just hearing now that the a.p. is saying that henry waxman is considering retiring, or will retire. do you know -- >> nbc can confirm that. our producers on capitol hill got that news as well, today. of course, henry waxman is a big lion of the house democrats. a democrat from california. we saw one of his colleagues, democrat george miller, also recently announce his retirement after serving for a very long time. these are going to be very safe democratic seats, but it does show you that some of the big democratic leaders that we heard from in the 1990s and in the 2000s are beginning to retire. >> because they're getting older or getting tired of trying to deal -- >> maybe a little bit of both, barbara. >> all right. thanks a lot. >> thank you. and for more from mark and the rest of the nbc news political team, check out "first read" on nbcnews.com. and tom's here now to talk a little bit about our weather. we did have a cold start, and it's still pretty chilly out there, tom. i ran out a minute ago. >> quickly warming up, though. you know, barbara, we had just enough snow on tuesday night, enough coating for any critters to leave tracks. maybe you saw tracks like this along your sidewalk. i think this might have been a fox maybe. >> looks like it, doesn't it in. >> looks like it could be. >> is that outside your door, tom? >> no, this was on my front porch. i went to sweep my front porch yesterday afternoon. >> maybe a platypus or -- [ laughter ] dinosaur duck. >> i think it is a dinosaur, or a little bird. but love your pictures that people were posting on twitter and facebook, too. the critters leaving the tracks in the light snow. and i was earlier this week visiting this school, the navy school in fairfax, virginia, and talked to 200 first and second graders there, filling the library there at the navy elementary school in fairfax. it's right off of west ox road and had a great time there. i want to thank teacher stephanie shams for the chance to talk to the terrific students at the navy elementary school in fairfax county, in fairfax, virginia. it was a lot of fun. what a great group of people. what a wonderful staff they have. look how cold it still is. below freezing. a lot better than it was this morning when we were near zero. right now around the metro area, much of prince george's county, mid-20s. mid and upper 20s in montgomery county, fairfax county. much of the rest of northern virginia climbing into the 20s. huntingtown still at 21. it got down to just 1 above there this morning. as well as in parts of the eastern shore, it was near zero. shenandoah valley, the mountains, temperatures are now climbing into the 20s. most of those locations, as well, with that bright sun and a blue sky, beginning to work its magic. these are highs, i'm anticipating, for this afternoon. ought to make it in the low, maybe briefly mid-30s around the metro area, but elsewhere farther north and west, highs in the 20s, near 30 degrees. we have a calm wind with this bright sun that's going to be with us here into the afternoon. then tonight, after we get our temperatures into the 30s, the temperatures should be dropping back down. there's the scale. i think we'll be back down to near 20 degrees by midnight. just a few clouds moving in during the evening hours, and they'll be with us off and on during the day on friday. tomorrow afternoon's high should make it warmer, into the low 40s, i'm anticipating, and then on saturday, even milder. should be making it into the upper 40s saturday afternoon. partly sunny. might have a little sun on sunday morning, and then sunday afternoon into sunday evening, there's a pretty good chance we're going to get sprinkles during the afternoon, quite a bit of cloudiness around, but near 50 degrees during the afternoon. then some of the sprinkled activity may change to wet snow before it ends on monday morning, and some sun back monday afternoon, and then maybe some icing moving in late tuesday night. we could get some freezing rain, some icy roads. temperatures holding steady, near 30 degrees tuesday night into wednesday morning. and then, i think on wednesday afternoon, we could get some rain warming up enough for it to change over to rain and highs in the 40s, and that's the way it's looking, barbara, up and down we go. a nice warming trend just in time for the weekend. boy, do we need it. everybody's getting sick and tired and tired and sick of this winter. >> this has been a busy winter for you. you have been working a lot, tom. >> sure has. >> thanks so much. we have some new information on what working too much can do to your health. coming up, we'll have that story. plus, from the weather to the food, we are getting you ready for super bowl. and whether or not your child will grow up and become overweight may be

attention. now, these pictures are actually from the national zoo. these are veterinarians at the zoo right now caring for this snowy owl. d.c. police apparently found the owl near 15th and i streets northwest. they say it was hit by a bus, and then police officers took the owl to the national zoo. you can see the vets there caring for the owl, checking out the owl. apparently, it was alert and responsive. they say no obvious physical injuries, but obviously, the vets there will take a closer look and see if there are any serious injuries. now, standard protocol for the zoo when they're treating wild animals such as the snowy owl, they will take care of it, provide as much care as possible, and then release it back into the wild. we're not sure exactly what the condition of the snowy owl is right now. these are pictures from the fliker site. we'll bring you more as we have it. back to you. >> eun, thank you. kids may be at risk for obesity earlier than we thought. a new study suggests half of children who are obese by the eighth grade were already overweight when they started kindergarten. this means the window to prevent obesity may be much shorter, perhaps closing before your child even goes to school. the study followed more than 7,000 students through grade school. >>. >> and we're gathering new information on a developing story out of kentucky. as many as nine people have been killed in a house fire. coming up, what we know about the victims and what may have started this fire. plus, are we done with the dangerous cold weather? storm team4 meteorologist top

concern here. the high on sunday expected to be about 38 degrees, but it could drop into the 20s by the time the game is over, and that would make this actually the coldest of the 48 super bowl games
