home. because the conditions out here are slippery and dangerous and in many areas, again this accident you can see here causing delays on the bw parkway. so it's not -- it's not your friend today unfortunately. we're also tracking another situation going on on the southbound side of 95 between u.s. 1 and occoquan. where the lanes multiple lanes closed there because of another situation involving a tractor- trailer and several cars. our traffic land camera there shows us that situation still going on at this hour. emergency crews as well as vdot on the scene right now. we got reports that tractor- trailers were just slipping off the road. i mean that's how icy the roads are at this point. and as we're going to hear from nikki and delia, you know you have to be careful because even in some cases you'll fall as you try to walk to your car. that's just how bad the situation is right now. we'll continue to on the more this story and of course we'll have updates for you coming you very shortly -- up very shortly. right now over to howard. actually i'll take it. thanks larry. a very cold start lots of snow yesterday and i know from my drive in not very many clear roads out there. it's very slippery. not a lot of melting anytime soon. we will see a little bit obviously afternoon. with some sunshine. you can see clear skies but temperatures are going to stay about 30, 32 degrees at best for the afternoon so the best we can hope for is that sun angle to help melt things but later on this evening just going to go right back down to single digits. 16 out there. record lows for baltimore and through dulles and temperatures are going to slowly get to the 30s but hey we have some sunshine to enjoy. howard will talk about a weekend warmup coming up. all right mike, andrea, back to you. stay home if you have the option. drive carefully if you do have to go out. seven car pileup. bw parkway tractor-trailers slipping off the roads. they are still ice packed. >> it's not going to change anytime soon because as our weather team tells us it's going to stick around freezing today. delia goncalves joins us live from montgomery county i believe she is in silver spring. good morning delia. >> reporter: good morning. yeah we are still here in silver spring. lots to talk about and lots to show you i should first tell you that montgomery county while we're sitting here at this red. montgomery county, just now two minutes ago lifted the snow emergency. and so that means you can park on the designated snow emergency ruths like georgia avenue. after -- routes like georgia avenue. after the morning rush hour. also means that you will no longer get a free ride so they're going to charge for parking as well. bus service is up and running, we've seen a lot of people coming out. standing at bus stops and heading over to the metro. so they're starting to get pack to work but thing -- back to work but things are far the normal here in montgomery county and in silver spring. even though the main streets are looking really great, you know, the side streets are very tricky. covered 234 ice and snow. -- in ice and snow. montgomery county highway services saying listen, we want residents to be patient with us. even though we may have made one pass in your neighborhood that doesn't mean the work is over yet. we will be back to make some more passes and in fact we've seen a lot of plow trucks in the area. and in those neighborhoods trying to dig out and de-ice. some of those streets. nikki mentioned stopping and starting obviously very hard for a lot of the cars. but ice whether you're walking, whether you're driving, is going to be an issue today as we see a plow truck kind of going through the neighborhood and the intersection dropping some salt. to folks who are getting back to normal operations i guess you can say? and hopefully get to their final destinations safely. back to you in the studio. >> all right thank you delia. getting back to normal is tricky in the district as well especially on those snow- covered ice packed side street. >> the sidewalks too, nikki burdine is live in northwest with a look at how things are after the freeze. federal workers are going in two hours late which means they are going in sidewalks are a priority this morning. nikki? >> reporter: exactly right. i want to start with the sidewalks here right off the connecticut avenue. that's the good news. good news is these sidewalks here, looking pretty good guys. there's a lot of salt here. the sidewalk is wet. so it could be slick. but right here right now, it is looking good and in fact we've seen a couple of joggers and people walking their dogs this morning and they've been moving along just fine. stepping off the sidewalk onto the side streets we are on cathedral off of connecticut. this is snow packed and this is a problem. and in fact no cars have been able to pass through on this very edge of the side street they've had to kind of stay in the middle of the road. and that is in spite of snow plows coming through. we've seen a lot of snow plows this morning. they have been dropping their plows and going back and forth here doing their best. but this is only so much they canscape down to the pavement. and even when they do get down to the pavement, i want you to take a look and see. this is again a side street but even when they get to the down pavement -- down to the pavement, it can be slushy and slick can then you get black ice. now i want to show you connecticut avenue. this is obviously a very well traveled road here early this morning. you can see pavement there. so that is looking much better than it was early this morning. snow plows have been going back and forth here and the more cars that come through here, the more that that snow is melting. however i want to caution you just -- caution you just because you see black top doesn't mean it's not slick stopping and starting is going to be difficult. cars wheels have been spinning out. so just give yourself a lot of extra time. speeding like that is not a good idea. we'll keep you updated here on conditions here in connecticut avenue and back to you in the studio. >> all right nikki thank you. it is 6:06 and more flights should be able to arrive and take off today but as always on days like this, call your airline before you leave home. >> thousands of flights were canceled yesterday during the storm. vanessa herring joins us live from reagan national with the look at how things are going this morning. good morning vanessa. >> reporter: good morning. and there's still a lot of sitting and waiting unfortunately going on here at reagan national airport. and i mean who really wants to be stuck at the airport on a friday?
