we're 62. let's check in with monika samtani. when i come back again we'll have more on sandy. thank you so much. if you're planning to head into virginia, a couple of early morning incidents. one happened at about 2:30 this morning. it was a single vehicle, deadly accident insides the beltway right -- inside the beltway right here in annandale. i'll step out and show you what it looks like from our live shot. backlick road is still blocked at john mar drive. i would suggest you go ahead and use little river turnpike as your alternate route in annandale inside the beltway. it looks like hopefully they should have everything clear from the roadway within the next few minutes. that car was on its side and it looks like it's been uprighted and being loaded on to the wrecker as we speak here on backlick road and john mar drive. there's another situation you'll want to know about. this time it's on the northbound side of i-95 right here in aquia harbor. northbound side of i-95 with the accident blocking the left lane. you're going about 32 miles an hour. stay to the right to get around the accident. look at all the red tryi to get up toward the accident past aquia harbor into triangle. that's what you have to deal with there. further north in springfield, st normal brake lights as you leave route 644. i'll be back with more on both of those incidents at 6:11. back to you guys. >> thank you, monika. the son of virginia congressman jim moran resigning from his father's campaign after a conservative group releases an undercover video showing him discussing a plan to cast fraudulent ballots. >> when you look at this, was this just a cheap setup or blatant proof of dishonest politics? kristin fisher is live with the allegations which were caught on a hidden camera but it's an interesting twist. >> reporter: it is a very interesting twist with just two weeks to go till election day. the hidden camera footage was recorded outside a restaurant in arlington on october 8. it was recorded by an undercover investigator from the conservative watchdog group. you can see the undercover investigator is disguised as disabilityic sup -- as a democratic supporter as he approaches patrick. at first patrick seems hess assistant. listen closely -- hesitant. listen closely. >> reporter: the investigator pushes on. that's when the field dreghtor and son of an -- director and son of an 11-term congressman finally gives advice on how to pull off this deception at the polls. he doesn't support the plan but does tell the investigator to look into it. >> reporter: yesterday after the video went viral, his father's campaign released a statement saying, quote, patrick is a well liked and was a well respected member of the campaign team. this incident, however, was clearly an error in judgment. the campaign has accepted patrick's resignation effective immediately. yesterday we reached out to patrick for a comment. he did respond via e-mail. i'll share it with you coming up in half an hour at 6:30. >> kristin fisher with that update from the satellite center. a youtube video has inflamed passions in maryland's same-sex marriage debate. the video made at a town hall meeting in baltimore on october 19 featured a package with pastor robert anderson. anderson quoted scriptures saying homosexuality is worthy of death and drew a direct line to question 6. late yesterday derek mccoy, the executive director for the organization issued a written statement saying any attempt to imply that dr. anderson's reading of scripture was a call to harm gays and lesbians is false and serves as a distraction of the real issues of this campaign. anderson says his group is committed to the dignity and respect of all people, but that marriage is reserved for one man and one woman. today supporters and opponents of same-sex marriage and the referendum are planning to rally at gallaudet university in the district and they are both planning to call for the same thing at this rally. both groups want angela mccaskill reinstated as the school's chief diversity officer. she was placed on paid leave earlier this month after administrators learned she had sign add petition to get the -- signed a petition to get the referendum on the ballot. she thinks voters should have the chance to decide if same- sex marriage should be legal or not. merchandise midstate board of elections is investigating why some absentee ballots in prince george's county and montgomery county seem to be missing a page. governor martin o'malley says so far the board has confirmed the mistake in fewer than 20 ballots. he says residents who requested absentee ballots should make sure the second page is there and that includes the questions 4 through 7. president obama on a campaign swing stopped off at the tonight show last night. he encouraged voters to go to the polls making it an opportunity to condemn the remarks of an indiana republican senate candidate richard mourdock about rape and pregnancy. mourdock said during a debate that when pregnancy results from rape, it's something god intended. president obama said the remark didn't make any sense to him and such comments show why candidates, especially male should not make comments about women's health care. a tunisian man is facing charges in connection with the september attack in benghazi. four americans were killed including ambassador chris stevens. the white house, the state department and f.b.i. were informed a terror group had claimed credit for the attack on facebook and twitter just two hours after it started. that's according to e-mails obtained by cbs news. the e-mails also suggest u.s. diplomats were informing officials in washington about the assault as it was unfoaldzing. this race -- unfolding. this races further -- raises further confusion about the confusion on the -- further -- further questions about the confusion on the part of the white house. secretary of state clinton says posting on facebook isn't evidence of an attack. kiss the d hair days goodbye. >>it's a new concept for washington, d.c. the dry bar just opened in georgetown and bethesda. locations number 17 and 18 for this unique business. it specializes in blow drying and styling your hair. that's it. the chain is spreading like wildfire across the country. >> reporter: step right up to the bar and order a my thai or cosmo but you won't get a cocktail at dry bar. when alley started her business, she saw an opening in the market to do one thing really well. >> there needed to be a place where you can get a great blowout at a great price in a fun place and the atmosphere was fun and girlie and pampering and you would be in and out in an hour. >> reporter: drybar charges a $40 flat fee to wash and style your hair, no matter your length or texture. we compared that to nine other salons within a half-mile radius of the new georgetown location and found the others were charging an average of $10 more for a blowout. an up do or uptini costs $80 at drybar. it's $14 more at competing salons, some charging up to 150 bucks. >> who is the woman that walks through the door? >> it runs the gamut. everything from working women, stay at home moms. we like to joke around and say our clients are women with hair. >> reporter: she created drybar after having her two sons. the blowouts were developed from her years as a stylist. >> came should i get done-- >> what should i get done? >> i would go with the mai thy. >> reporter: my hair was washed and then it was time for the blowout while stylists worked, patrons watched. now for the big reveal, before and after. lots of volume and shine in just 45 minutes. >> if you get addicted to their blowout, they even offer monthly memberships and value packs. you can buy a 12 pack $440. that's a savings of 40 bucks. this is the menu over here. it's really cool. kind of cute. >> you had a cosmo? >> i had the mai thy. >> the name of the blowout. >> exactly. that's defined as messy and beachy but you have one, two, three, four, five -- six versions. >> there's too much curl in that to be beachy. >> my hair takes a curl. >> loved it. didn't you, mike? >> mike has a lot to say. >> our time 6:10. howard has a lot to say and you can leave the jackets at home but what about the weekend? what's sandy up to? the forecast is next. do you think of these kids asthma fires -- as ma giefers with with mash making lows? you'll see how they're using this treat to help solve some problems around the word. sandy has hit jamaica, cuba and is now about to hit the bahamas. after that maybe the u.s. i'll have the latest on sandy and the seven-day forecast in just a few minutes. . howard here with your weather first. not as warm today. we start with 50s and 60s and mostly cloudy skies. we'll turn partly sunny, upper 60s by lunch time with a high today in the low, maybe the mid- 70s. the latest on sandy coming up. monika here with timesaver traffic. lots to tell you, especially in virginia. in annandale, over on backlick road at john mar drive since about 2:30 this morning, crews have been on the scene of a deadly single vehicle accident. they've been blocking off the roadway in annandale inside the beltway since that time 2:30 in the morning. let's take a live look at what's going o. i know a wrecker was on the scene. if you're planning to head over to that area, you'll see that the tape is still up and the road is still blocked so go ahead and use little river turnpike instead. let's also go to a live picture on the northbound side of i-95. here in newington things are fine but if you're trying to leave aquia harbor toward triangle, there was an accident. everything has been moved to the left shoulder. traffic is moving slowly through that area right now. i would say you're going under 30 miles an hour. now let's go over to a map of 270. southbound side delays overall from frederick as you head down toward clarksburg. the lanes are open. you're going under the speed limit but at least it's incident free. we'll take a live look right now if you're planning to head there. no issues to report, just the brake lights in front of you at route 109. i'll be back with more traffic coming up at 6:18. howard? >> thank you very much, monika. guys? >> sandy could be his mother-in- law knocking at your door along the coast. >> she's excited there's a storm named after her but we're not excited about the potential for her. it will transition from a tropical storm to what we call an extra-tropical storm. it will be cold air total west. the sea temperatures, ocean temperatures running about 5 degrees above average so that big difference between temperatures, that gradient is going to be more fuel for a big powerful storm with a windfield that will expand to hundreds of miles from the center of circulation. that will be happening over the weekend into early next week. today i want to start with sandy and show you where she is and tell you where i think she's going. over eastern cuba pulling toward the bahamas now leaving the north shore of northeastern cuba after being a category two storm, a strong one at landfall. actually made category 3 for a brief period last night. this thing exploded yesterday. the center of circulation you can see now up here moving toward the north. maybe slightly northwest over the next day or so. winds from the hurricane center measured at 105 gusting to 130. pressure 960 millibars moving north at 18 miles an hour. so we'll watch it today. go through the bahamas and slowly wakingen. 100 mile an hour sustained winds at 2:00. then it weakens to 85 here by friday afternoon. saturday morning, though, about 80. should be far enough off shore from florida that they're just dealing with tropical storm force winds. then this thing still maintain as hurricane east of hatteras and becoming a strong area, a nontropical low with winds of 70 miles an hour here by tuesday morning. that's off shore the mid- atlantic. my concern is when i look at the computer models, some of them are going out to the east. it's the ones that go back toward the west and northwest. some of them way too close to us for comfort. others are up toward new york. so we've got to watch this area early next week because if that happens, coastal areas will get just slammed. we'll be dealing with our own heavy rains and winds and maybe even some mountain snows. at the bus stop this morning, not bad. some clouds out there. temperatures in the 50s and 60s. we'll have a pretty good day with temperatures which will be running into the low 70s this afternoon with the morning clouds and afternoon sunshine. your temps right now upper 50s to low 60s so pretty comfortable out there. before we show you the forecast, want to show you the low clouds that have moved in on our michael & son weather camera. good decent visibility still at the surface. our forecast we have temperatures running in the low 70s today. yesterday 84. not quite as warm today. tonight in the 50s with late night drizzle or fog. 71 tomorrow. saturday 68. could be an isolated shower ahead of a cold front. sunday rain developing later in the day and then monday and tuesday just depends on sandy but it will turn colder. we'll be back with more 9news now right after this. well company back. about 6 -- welcome back. about 6:21 on this thus morning. howard with you. our forecast not as warm as yesterday. i still think you could probably leave your jackets at home. 50s and 60s now. noon 68. by 3:00 partly sunny and 72. close to the 73 high for the day. 6:00 p.m. right around 70. michael? >> mr. bernstein, thank you. they're teaching locally but they're definitely thinking globally in this week's cool school. the bus making a stop in rockville, maryland this morning. how could something as simple as a marshmallow help students learn how to solve problems around the world? we take you to christ episcopal school to find out. >> have you wondered how tall buildings stay up in the air? >> reporter: they don't have to wonder. fifth graders in rockville are putting engineering basics to work. >> what's the strongest shape to build with? >> usually triangle. >> reporter: their materials? marshmallows and a spaghetti. their inspiration? >> the empire state building is a pretty tall one. >> the sears tower. >> reporter: they're in a partnership with johns hopkins center for technology and education. hands on learning is a big part of the experience, but it goes far beyond that. >> they're going to help the teachers learn how to work in teams. then the teachers are going to be working with the students and helping them learn how to work in teams around solving real world problems. >> reporter: the program is called learning integration for tomorrow or lit. each student goes into a small group, gets an assigned job and title which requires them to stay engaged and contribute to the group. >> if you're working a smaller group, more people get it because if you're bigger and you make an idea, one person might not know what they're doing and might mess up the project. >> reporter: whether they finish, students have to -- when they finish, students have to stand up and tell the class what worked and what didn't. >> we later decided because that team motivated us. we wanted to beat them. we decided on another. >> reporter: that was a good thing. >> four, three, two, one. hands off. >> reporter: this was their second try at a tower. >> all right. let's stick this one on top. it is 106 centimeters. >> reporter: almost double their competitor. plus, all the students benefit because the strategy is available to the whole class. lifting all of them to the next level and then on to global problem solving. >> skillset they need probably more than anything else is how do i understand another person, how do i communicate with someone i might not know very well, come up with ideas that will solve problems in china or africa or the united states or europe. >> reporter: what started as wondering about tall buildings ended with sweet success. >> a lot of fun when you can learn and have a snack too, isn't it? if you have something you'd like us to profile, we'd love to hear from you. our time 16:24. >> if you're looking to hang with zombies, ride roller coasters and get your dance on, find out why you want to hit six flags in largo. >> an accident on the northbound side of i-95 near triangle was cleared to the left shoulder. you still have a lot of slow traffic there getting by. then it bunches up here in springfield trying to get to the beltway. howard? >> we're still watching sandy now departing the cuban coast headed for the bahamas. could be here late in the weekend early next week. this morning benign weather. full forecast and the rest of the news and traffic coming up when we return. well good morning. a live shot of the people's house. the capitol shrouded in a little bit of cloud cover. we'll see how it goes for the rest of the day. thank you for starting your thursday with us. good morning. i'm andrea roane. i'm mike hydeck. howard bernstein is live on the weather terrace sampling things out. >> good morning. we have an easterly wind bringing and the low clouds hanging over the capitol. so far the visibilities have been pretty good. sandy headed north to the bahamas. florida under tropical storm warnings. here's a look from our tower cam of the low clouds. better visibility at the surface with 62 currently. cloudy skies this morning. partly sunny this afternoon with highs only in the low 70s. yesterday we managed to get to 84 to tie the record. big ridge of high pressure overhead so don't look for any rain. temperatures again starting comfortable, 50s and 60s. let's go inside and check with monika. she has timesaver traffic. in fairfax station, a car into the woods southbound route 123 at silver brook road. you've got one long slow lineup on 270 this morning leaving frederick. it's going to be most of the way down toward 109 and 121 before the pace picks up. in fact, let's take a live look at 118 where it's also slow right here through germantown. actually father hurley boulevard as you travel toward germantown and gaithersburg before the pace improves. back over to our maps and this time to the west side of town. there have been no issues on 66 or the dulles toll road trying to get to the beltway. let's take a live look outside if you're planning to head here on the northbound side of 95 at backlick road it looks okay. we'll go to our live picture as well where there's been ongoing accident investigation cleanup of this single-vehicle fatal accident in annandale. backlick road at john mar drive. you can see the damaged vehicle has been put on the tow truck here and hopefully things should open up here shortly. backlick road at john mar drive. i'll be back with a look at the area roads again at 6:43. back to you guys. hurricanes and politics or at least big storms anyway. let's get over to our partners at cbs this morning to see what they're talking about this morning. charges are both of them. >> charlie rose joins us live with a preview of what's coming up at 7:00. good morning. how are you? >> good morning, mike and andrea. retired general colin powell will be with us. so far in this year's race he has not revealed who he supports. we'll ask him if he's ready to make an endorsement and the potential for a once in a lifetime storm. we now howard has been talking about hurricane sandy. we'll talk to our hurricane expert david bernard about the growing concern that will combine with a snowstorm as it slams the eastern united states. that and more when we see you at 7:00. >> yes, fearing a repeat of 1991, that perfect storm. all right, charlie, we'll be watching. have a great morning. cheap setup or unethical politics? >> a virginia congressman's son resigning from his father's campaign after hidden camera video shows him discussing a plan to cast fraudulent ballots. kristin fisher has more. >> reporter: this morning. this video shows patrick moran giving advice on how to commit voter fraud. the advice was solicited and then secretly recorded by an undercover investigator for a conservative watch drug group. was this a setup or proof of dishonest politics? we're going to let you be the judge this morning. here's the back story. patrick moran is the son of the 11-term congressman from northern virginia jim moran. patrick has been working as a field director in his father's reelection campaign when this video was recorded on october 8. in the video the undercover investigator is the one filming. he's disguised as a democratic supporter as he approaches patrick with a plan to cast fraudulent ballots in favor of jim moran, his father. at first patrick is hesitant. he entries to encourage the investigator to lobby for the votes legally instead. but then it seems he kind of gives in, even offers advice on how to pull it off. listen. the inaudible part was him focusing on getting out the vote. so you can see patrick conflicted in those statements. we reached out to him yesterday for comment. he responded via e-mail saying at no point have i or will i ever endorse any sort of illegal or unethical behavior. at no point did i take this person seriously. he was acting crazy and it struck me that he was joking. only for that reason did i humor him. in retrospect i should have walked away making it clear there's no place in the electoral process for even the suggestion of illegal behavior, joking or not. denot want to be a distraction with less than two weeks to election and resigned. i think he probably made the right call. election officials have installed voter registration absentee ballot drop boxes. it's located outside the board of elections headquarters around 18700 block of route 355 in gaithersburg. montgomery county voters can drop off a completed registration application or a ballot 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. montgomery county

windows 8 is designed to run on pcs, tablets and smartphones. this is the first radical remake of windows in 17 years. microsoft's c.e.o. steve is saying the company will dive into making more

we will be for the next several days. big storm in eastern cuba hit jamaica yesterday. headed to the bahamas. glarnsing blow in -- glancing blow in florida. what will it do as it heads toward us? i'll try to give those possibilities in a few minutes. welcome back. timesaver traffic. it's 6:41 and 62 degrees. quite a few things to tell you about right now, especially if you're planning to travel in virginia. i'm going to get to that in a moment. first let me start with the good news. there are no issues to report on the beltway north side of town as you leave college park. look at that. there's no yellow, green. just green. nothing to report in terms of delays. everything is looking good as you leave college park into silver spring and bethesda. 270 a different story. let's go outside live and show what you it looks like. first of all if you're planning to head over on the northbound side of i-95 in virginia. you've got your long, slow lineup as you leave quantico toward triangle. there was an accident there that was cleared. then it's most of the way as you leave dale city into springfield here. the lanes are open. let's go a little further north on to 395. the issue here, look at that. backed up as you leave duke street past king where there's an accident in the left lane. let's go back over to our maps, this time heading over to the west side of town. no problems 066 as you head inbound. but inside the beltway here in annandale on backlick road at john mar drive, that early morning fatal accident has been cleared so you're good to go through that intersection as well. one more last live look outside. again here's what it looks like on 270. you've got your delays as you leave basically frederick off and on toward clarksburg and germantown with the lanes open. i'll be back with more traffic at 6:58. back to you guys. remember last week when this was howard's costume and he was a chick magnet? lazy halloween. basically we're afraid he might be attracting sandy and not the good sandy. >> i can't help it if that happens. >> it won't be a hurricane if it comes our way. >> but it will be a very strong, maybe extra tropical storm but still could have winds 70 miles an hour or so, gusting more than that. the wind field will expand on this as it comes in toward the northern latitude. it's going to be a big, dangerous store. it may hit the northeast or the mid-atlantic. that's the problem, we don't know where she's headed yet. it looks like she may track more west than east. for us it's early to say but we're not on the coast. we could still get heavy rain and winds that we'll be dealing with as well early next week. looking at sandy. not nearly as well defined as it was 12 hours ago as it was coming between jamaica and cuba. briefly got up to a category 3 strength. it's weakened a little bit in eastern cuba but now it's back in the open waters. i expect it to look a little angel berroa than this as it tracks to the north through -- a little bit better than this as it tracked to the north through the bahamas. moving to the north at a pretty good clip 18 miles an hour. prepare 960. the lower it goes, the stronger the storm. the higher it goes, the weaker the storm. still expecting a category 2 storm through this evening, through the central bahamas. weakening a little bit and slowly as we head in toward friday and now saturday morning. notice the jog northwest and the jog northeast. hurricane center track takes it parallel to the coast and back off toward the north. well, this is not good news for the northeast and mid-atlantic because the cone now of uncertainty by tuesday morning getting on the mid-atlantic coast, the jersey coast, the long island coast. what's got me concerned for us are the models that i look at. there's a bunch of models. who's to say if one is better than the other. i like the european ones i'm not even showing you. look at this model. it comes in toward ocean city and toward garrett county. this is the canadian model comes toward montauk point. when you have models starting to turn to the coast, it gets me nervous on where the storm may ultimately end up. this afternoon we're looking at low 70s at 4:00 p.m. with 34eud 60s at -- mid-60s at 8:00. the high today about 73. not as warm as yesterday. we've got low 50s in the then goa dough ya valley this morning. -- shenandoah valley this morning. we're in the low 50s. easton, cloudy and 61 degrees. you can see on our michael & son weather camera the low clouds that have moved in although we're not seeing much in the way of reduced visibilities at the surface. just the low clouds. 62. east wind at 7. humidity 90%. so we'll watch the clouds. they're going to be with us on and off throughout the day. maybe more sun this afternoon. looks like the low clouds, drizzle and fog return tonight. then tomorrow we start with clouds and perhaps some afternoon sunshine and that will be probably the last couple of good days before things really start going downhill late in the weekend. so the forecast today 73. tonight 50s to near 60. again there could be some late drizzle or fog. tomorrow mostly cloudy, 71. on saturday a late shower as a front approaches, 68. we're going to turn colder regardless of what sandy does with a better chance of seeing the rain and wind unfortunately monday and tuesday. andrea? >> all right, howard, thank you. this is the last weekend six flags park in largo, maryland is open and the last weekend for the thrills by day fright by night. we have two guests from six flags here to tell us about the events going on. we welcome amanda. she's training manager and havala, manager. amman today, you say there are things we can use around the house to make some creative designs. >> yes. you can even use toilet paper or paper towel. what we've done is put a piece of toilet tissue here and we put liquid latex over it and dried it. you get liquid latex at a halloween store or online. >> any crafts store you could probably find that. >> and we covered it with liquid foundation. we do air brush makeup on our ghouls. we give them a green look or gray look which is kind of fun. what we're going to do now, this is grease paint. i mixed red and black together. we put it on this wound here. make it look nice and dirty here. >> so you're not actually going to be doing makeup on people coming to the park. this is what the finished product would be. there is a lot for people to enjoy at the park. >> there is a lot for people to enjoy. in fact, we brought some of our dead man's party here today. they're totally made up with all their air brushing and open wounds and facial things they have going on. and they play every night. you can see them. they're a lot of fun. then we have a lot of other fun activities, like the ravage sun show which has blood in it, too. >> of course. >> and lots of fighting. >> how long have you been doing thrills by day, fright by night? >> for a really long time. probably over ten years. >> this looks great. again it's a safe environment. self-contained. you don't have to worry about your kids being in danger, running all over the place. >> it's a great time. >> get a look at this, what amanda is doing there's just a little toilet tissue on top and grease paint. you opened it up so it's like a gaping wound. >> we put liquid stage blood. you can make this at home with corn syrup and food coloring. this is cool. we take the liquid blood and put coffee grounds in it. >> it smells good. it's the best smell ever. mike, you'd love the smell of the coffee. >> indeed. >> oh, my goodness, this is gross. that's a good thing. >> it feels really funny too on your face. it doesn't hurt. it's not uncomfortable. you can do it on your kids or just playing around. that makes it fun. when you can do stuff at home that you see in a show, that makes it a lot of fun. >> before we take another look at the dancers, give us the times and dates, thrills by day, fright by night. >> saturday and sunday we're open at noon until 10:00. thrills by day is from noon to 6:00 and then the park goes dark and we get really scary and creepy. >> the blood is dripping down. >> let's take a look at show you'll be able to enjoy. thank you for being with us. ghouls and goblins, thank you. take a look. dancing to michael jackson's thriller. or
