Lets go to our reporters taking a look at whats going on outside. Lets start in the leesburg section of loudoun county. Thats where Nikki Burdine joins us near route 7. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Talk about the timing of this storm. Here we are just getting ready to get into rush hour and the snow is coming down. That means the roads are starting to be affected. You see the plow truck just going by. His plow has not been dropped yet. Thats because theres not two inches on the ground yet. However, you can see the stripes on the road. Its kind of a messy slush out here on route 7 in leesburg. About half an hour ago, it was just wet rain. Now its slush. I want to ground, though. Thats where you can see the accumulation. In our last halfhour, i made an x here in the parking lot. Lets take a look at an update and see where it is. Its almost covered, guys. Not as much as last time but you can see theres quite a bit of snow here on the the ground here in leesburg in this parking lot. Well keep you updated on the Road Conditions here as the snow continues to fall. Be careful as youre heading out to work this morning. Back to you in the studio. Thats nikki in northern virginia. Now we want to send it over to germantown, maryland, where vanessa herring is joining us. Good morning, vanessa . Reporter its kind of the same story. You can see where most of the cars have been traveling. Its kind of cleared out but the roads are still slick. Take your time. Allow yourself some extra time if you are heading out today. You can see the accumulation here on the ground. Ive been clearing it off and it keeps coming back. It is the light fluffy stuff so its easy to clear off your car if you are heading out this morning.

They are a little slick so you want to make sure you take your time so you can get to where youre going safely. Ill send it back you to guys in the studio. Thank you, vanessa. In germantown along 355. Now the Citys Department of public works. It seems to be coming down quickly, bill. Its coming down at a pretty good clip. We have 200plus trucks out in d. C. Salting right now as your reporters stated earlier, its not enough snow to plow but we are putting salt down. Yesterday we put brine down on as many streets as we could we couldnt get it out earlier because of the rain. Were in pretty good shape. We just ask motorists to drive cautiously, clear their cars, and that residents and Business Owners clear their sidewalks for pedestrians. This is really a moment youve been preparing for for quite some time. It was a couple of months ago we saw the plows circling around the parking lot. On october 24 we had our dry run. It was assimilated. Were clearly in a full event today. So were prepared for it and were ready to go. As far as checking in with leverly farm beverly farmer with traffic. You seeing any problems with accidents or traffic . Were unaware of any incidents in the district at this point. We have salt down. We need a few cars to drive over it to work the product in. Then the roads should be fine later on. Fortunately theres a lot of traffic that moves in and out of the district and that helps keep the snow from sticking too much. As far as your Road Conditions right now in and around the district, where does it seem as if the worst areas are or you can tell just yet . Probably the upper northwest area. Thats usually where its it snows the heaviest and has the coldest temperature. The rest of the city is in pretty good shape. As far as mass transit, no problems there either . No problems as of yet. I think well be fine throughout the day. As soon as the temperature warms up a little bit and, you know, we get a little more salt on the ground, things will be just fine. Bill howland, we appreciate your time this morning, director of the Citys Department of public works. Well talk to you soon. Thank you. Take care now. Byebye. A friendly reminder.

As far as route 4 is concerned, out of Southern Maryland northbound 4 is still closed north of 260 at talbott road. Northbound 4 between 260 and 25, nobody getting by the scene of the serious crash. Crash northbound 95 in newington still tying up the left side of the roadway. Your ride coming out of woodbridge impacted. Everybody is feeling the pain here. Back to you, mike, nick. 6 11 now. Today former Virginia Governor Bob Mcdonnell is scheduled to be sentenced. Prosecutors are calling for a lengthy prison sentence. The defense wants extensive Community Service instead. As you well know by now, mcdonnell is the first ever Virginia Governor convicted of corruption. Were joined by the criminal defense attorney gary gertsenfield. What do you anticipate . Its going to be a long sentencing. A lot to be said. The defense has worked hard to put together a great presentation. I think it will be interesting to watch and compelling. I think well see a lot of people make some heartfelt statements. So i think it will be a very compelling story to watch. As weve heard, theres been more than 400 letters on behalf of the former governors character. Will that make an impact on the judge . Everything helps. Its actually 430 letters. It helps. The fact that people havent turned their back, important people. Former congressman eric cantor wrote a very coppelling letter. Tim kaine wrote a very, very compelling letter as well. His two daughters have written extremely heartfelt letters where basically they put blame with their mother. So those letters help. Will it make a huge difference in the end . If it shaves off a year or two years, i think it made a difference. You brought a list with you of some of the other people who have been convicted of corruption, the time they spent both locally here and around the country. Robthis wasnt so cut and dry here in virginia. In robs case, he denied responsibility. The biggest difference is here its gifts and toys and there really wasnt anything given back. Jonnie williams didnt say he really got anything back. He didnt make money from it. Its not as salacious in terms of what some of the other politicians who have gotten caught up. When you look the at years they got, William Jefferson 13 years, for example. Ray nagan ten years, Phil Hamilton nine years. We look at our former county executive from prince georges county, jack johnson. He got seven, almost seven and a half years. When you look at the letters on his behalf, the argument his family has suffered so much already. Does that play into the judges thinking . It does, but remember now, he had sentencing guidelines that are between 10 and 13 years in prison. Hes got a lot of time according to guidelines. Hes 60 years old. Judge spencer has a strong reputation of being somebody that tries to create the right kind of sentence. He certainly is not somebody that goes by guidelines. I do anticipate a lower than guideline sentence, perhaps significantly lower but at the end of the day, thy think is what our former governor is going to be wearing. Sad state of affairs for virginia. We appreciate your time. Good to see you wens again. Time to take another look at the facebook question of the morning. It is estimated that this item served in restaurants contains the most germs. Is it a, peanuts, b, lemon wedges or c, bread sticks .
