Ryan she has been playing pokemon for as long as she remembered. Im a giant fan. That is all i can say. Ryan she cant even describe why except it basically brings all the pokemon that life. Like a dream come true for me. Ryan ever since pokemon go hit the market like many kids, she has been glued to her cell phone. So imagine 12 nonstop hours. Pokethon. That is the Government Center in Fairfax County. We thought it was a great opportunity to have an event, partner with the police, share safety tips.

Hail battered homes, lightning lit up the sky. Even striking some homes around here. This morning many awoke to find the power out and the ground literred with debris littered with debris. The focus is the heat coming next. Doug hill is here. Today is nice. Wish we could keep it like this. Doug me, too. Not going to work out that way. Tomorrow is okay. Warmer. The humid levels are still under control. Then we will lose control. It will get exceptionagely hot and humid as we head to and through the weekend. First up, a Beautiful Image outside now. It will quite a while before we find temperatures in the mid80s. 85 in Reagan National. 83 in baltimore. The at 89. 88 in fredericksburg.

Looking overnight it is clear and comfortable. 63 to 70 for low temperatures. When you wake up thursday morning. Through the day tomorrow 90 degrees. The heat will start to build. But the humidity whether be under control. That will change heading to friday. Leon insult added to frustration for metro riders. Metro is saying no work was done on the orange and the silver line. This is despite the entire track being closed down from east balls church to ball East Falls Church to ballstop. That meant 18minute gap between trains. That condition will continue through the end of the month. Coming up at 6 00, transportation reporter Brianne Carter is going to lay out the mistake that brought traffic to a halt. Alison now turn to the Republican National convention where th family. But today, a different republican reality tv star entered the mix. It was harder to come out as a republican. Leon that is Caitlyn Jenner. She has been active in the g. O. P. For year. But after revealing she is transgender she is pushing for a change in the party to protect transgender people. Over the last three years we had three republican state representatives. Henson and craig and paul allen who were all arrested for lewd behavior in a mens bathroom. Maybe what we should do is ban republican representtives at a state level from representatives at at a state level from being in bathrooms. Alison Caitlyn Jenner dismiss speak and shou in the spotlight of the day, donald trump cleveland arrival and admission of guilt for melanias trump apparent plagiarism. We are joined live with what has happened so far and what is still to come. Marci gonzalez . Marci hi, well, donald trump and the running mate are now together in cleveland where tonight mike pence will take the stage to formally accept his v. P. Nomination. Trump and pence holding a rally together for the First Time Since becoming the official g. O. P. Nominees. Lets hear it for the next president of the United States of America Donald trump. Marci but the focus is still on the speech given by Melania Trump on the opening night. Staff writer is apologizing for the similarity to Michelle Obamas speech. You work hard for your word is your bond. You do what you say. Marci she wrote it was her mistake saying mrs. Trump read her passages from mrs. Obama speech as example of the messages she wanted to share. I wrote them down and later included some of the phrasing in the draft that ultimately became the final speech. She said she offered her reanalysis neigh but it was resignation but it was rejected. Two of trumps most attacked rivals, though he dubbed lying ted and little marco address a party still trying to send a message of unity. If we defend the constitution and empower the people i promise you there are brighter days ahead for the United States of america. Marci neither ted cruz nor marco rubio yet. Its still unclear if it will happen here tonight. Live in cleveland, marci gonzalez, abc7 news. Back to you. Alison so of course we heard back to the trump family, we heard from two of his children last night. Another one scheduled to speak tonight. What do we expect to hear from eric trump . Marci a trump spokesperson says eric trumps speech will be much more personal. He says it is a moving speech that will give people an indepth understanding of who trump is and what it was like for his children to grow up with trump as their father. Back to you. Alison all right. Thank you very much. Is that well, among the notable absences from the Republican National convention is Maryland Governor larry hogan. But that red governor in a blue state is keeping himself busy. In fact, he is enjoying a long maryland tradition of steaming blue crabs until they are red. Maryland bureau chief brad bell explains from the clam bake. Hogan said he would rather be eating crabs on the Eastern Shore than listening to politicians in cleveland. I love this thing. I have been to it almost every year for decades. Brad so the republican governor is today among the huge crowd at the 40th annual clam bake, not at the republican convention. A lot more folk here that are important rather than sitting in a room with a bunch of people in cleveland. Brad Republican Senate candidate also not there. I couldnt justify the expense of my campaign to go to cleveland. Brad this event named for a former governor has always been political for both major parties even if most in attendance barely notice the politicians as they crack claws, enjoy fish, clams and even watermelon. This isnt just about cracking crabs and politicses. The hos here is the chamber of commerce for the town. This town was once booming. The hope is that tourism and seafood will remain lifeline for this little community. Brad bell, abc7 news. Leon all right. I know youre jealous those of you that like crabs.
