Coming down. It is staying on the grass, but it doesnt look like its sticking to the streets, but its cold out there and its going to get colder. Thanks for staying with us, im shawn yancy and im tony perkins. Parts of the area are already under a Winter Weather advisory. The snowfall could mean traffic trouble and some School Delays tomorrow. Sue palka and Lauren Demarco are working the weather alert tonight. Lets begin now you with an update on what you can expect. Sue. There she is. Flakes out here in d. C. And its very light. We havent seen much all night. You have to look closely but we have had a lot of dry air over d. C. That prevented us from really seeing much going. Bottom line not much has fallen. We still have the opportunity of getting a dusting a little bit later tonight because there is a about it more coming that we see out through West Virginia. Theyre not taking any chances. We are the street we can see all the salt trucks that are standing by to see if the flurries why aringing to amount to something that need more salt. It l almost looks like it rained out here, but i was actually the melting salt. Let me show you radar because i want to show you where things have filled in over d. C. You will be able to sea brighter colors of purple. Thats where weve had some brighter areas of snow. Up toward the maryland counties that border pennsylvania getting closer to an inch to two inches out toward hancock. We saw that, winchester 2, Frederick County getting close to an inch, inch and a half. Basically that was all that was expected out of that. What were much whatting is one last band that you see out there, not too far from charles attorneys West Virginia. That still has to swing through. We think that will happen between now and 3 in the morning. That is possible that it put down another dusting or add to the totals, but not a lot of snow is going to be falling out of that. By this pulling out at 3 in the morning i think there will be a few delays where youve already seen snow especially because temperatures will be near or blow freezing north and west so we could have some slick spots. There is another round of snow coming and is that the one we just saw in West Virginia. We also have to watch saturday for some of our southern and eastern suburbs, but well have more on that in a few minutes. If we see anything else, its between now and three in the morning and that does give crews several hours before the rush hour to get going on everything. This is only going to end up being a dusting to two inches. If we see that doug it will be in the next two or three yours who. Heres a few snow totals that you can see out to our north and west from earlier today. Coming up, a look at the seven day forecast and why some parts of our area are under a winter storm watch f shawn and tony back to you. Thank you very much. Meanwhile, fox5s Lauren Demarco continues our Team Coverage live in fredericks maryland. How is it going there, lauren . Reporter i dont think we have much to complain about. Of course you want to be careful with the slick conditions but we missed the whole problem with rush hour. Right now if you take a look live look out here, we were near carlson park a seconding a and its really pretty. This is like the beautiful snow that sticks to the trees and the grass. It looks like theyve done a good job. The crews have done pretty well. As you look up on the side streets there are some light coating of snow. For the most party think everybody is getting around just fine right now. Here Maryland State Police in frederick implemented the snow emergency plan at 8 00 p. M. If youre on the road you need to have proper theyve been deployed and preparing for this since yesterday. Ddot pretreated with the brine and both juice mix to prevent ice from performing on the road. They have other pieces equipment ready to go. Earlier tonight we spoke with the vdot spokesman in fairfax to check in on the preparations there. The rush hour in the morning is our big pest concern. Again, were out with 11 pieces of equipment well have the roads in great condition. When we go out and we do our anti icing or our brine olympics that will stay on the road for five olympics as long as it doesnt rain. It works. This is the eighth year that weve used the brine and its proven that its worth it. As we drive around here on the neighborhood roads you really cant see some areas where it is beginning to stickment you of course want to be careful in the morning as you bridges and overpasses and im going to have my photograph pull over. You you can look at pretty houses that are getting covered in snow. Also, if youre out there driving, the big warning is to give yourself plenty of space between the salt trucks and plows. They want to be sure that people keep their distance and be save out there on the road. I wanted to end this off by coming out here myself and saying hi, tony. The worst athlete of all time. This is how i see you through my phones. Beautiful out there. Luckily you missed. All right, lauren, thank you very much. Take a look at this. Salt trucks on the road led to a price hike on the 495 express lanes during the evening commute. Tolls were up to for drivers hoping to use the express lanes into transurban, thats the company who runs the lanes they manage those tolls. They told fox5 there were two salt trucks on the lanes so prices were liked to deter drivers from getting on there. I understand that prices fluctuate and given the situation with it snowing, okay but 30 is a little bit ridiculous. In fact, my take is, when theres Severe Weather why dont you open that up for riders and make it a little bit more feasible versus upping the rates. Because they wont make money that way. Transurban says toll prices fluctuate and that there is no amount too high to charge for express lane privileges. A mother wants to know why the driver who hit and killed her son while he was crossing route 1 is not being charged because it turns out that it is the second time in three months the same driver hit and killed a pedestrian. Fox5s teisha lewis is live in laurel tonight with the story. Reporter well, shawn were victims were reportedly not according to police. Both accidents happened here along route 1 and its easy to see why. This is a very heavily traveled, busy roadway, four lane roadway with apparently no crosswalks, but what makes this situation unimaginable is that the two fatal accidents happened with the same driver behind the wheel. And the mother of the 23 year old victim in the most recent case that happened this n this vicinity that she thinks this a tragedy that should have and could have been avoided. Theres no crosswalk there. He was walking. He was trying to get on. I know him. He wasnt in the middle of the street. Does this man need his eyes checked . It cant be just like he killed two people and thats just the end of it. Its not fair. You hit somebody, you kill somebodys family member. The human thing in should have done, pick up the phone, call, try to fine the family, apologize. And thats georgia seaton who said they are jonathan had big dreams of becoming an engineer. He was attending Community College and working at a nearby hotel in the meantime. Tuesday, just two days after christmas, a little after four a. M. , he was walking home after hanging out with friends. Thats when police say 55 year old brian ester was driving a box truck northbound on route 1, north of 100 when he hit seaton. Seaton was walking in the roadway at the time. Ester is the bread truck Delivery Driver and again, this is the second time he has struck a pedestrian, killing him. The first incident happened in september, a young woman was killed in that incident. We did talk to police about all of this and they say that its important to note that if a pedestrian is not walking in the crosswalk, which you can see here in the structured roadway it may be difficult to do because there are no crosswalks, p but again, what police saying is that if a pedestrian is not walking in the crosswalk, they are, in fact, breaking the law. Teisha lewis, fox5 local news. Take a look at this, this bus over turned today. Five people are now recovering after this accident. The bus collided with area vehicle right at the intersection of brian town road and hunt tore hill place in waldorf. Three people on the bus, two people in the vehicle all suffered minor injuries, the cause of the crash is still under investigation. Well, there was a huge bribery bust in prince georges county. Two of the four people charged with bribery conspiracy are state appointed members of the countys liquor board. The scandal could grow as prosecutors expect to charge at least two elected offerings as well. No word yet on who those officials are. The fbi raided two Liquor Stores, a salvage yard and a liquor board headquarters today. Prosecutors say the scream was all about trading money for votes. They believe it is the sunday sales bill, which allows certain Liquor Stores to sell liquor on sundays.
