What you need to know to find out if your food in your kitchen could perhaps need to go back to the factory. Yeah, derek, those 240,000 cases translate into about 6. 5 million little blue boxes like this, and kraft says that now recalled mac and cheese was shipped to every state in the union. Open the ubiquitous blue box, boil the noodles, mix in that neon orange powdered cheese, and in minutes you have a meal familiar to parents, College Students or anyone in a hurry. Does this look like something we would find in your house when your kids were younger . When they were younger, yes, several boxes on a shelf. At home i would usually eat it like once a week.

Eight customers have complained after finding metal discovered so far with no injuries reported. Oh, wow. Thats not good. Thats not good at all. Kraft says only its original flavor is affected by the recall. They will have a september 18 through october 11 date on the side along with the digits c2. Any other variety or date is safe to seat. Is this going to shake your confidence in the blue box . Probably not. I mean krafts got a pretty good name no matter what. The hot dog and the mac and cheese, havent had it in ten years, and that might be it for me. I might be done with it.

I dont know if its red ometer worthy. For tonight just cold. Some areas struggled to get to either side of 50 today which is below average. Your average high is about 57. Were at 52 downtown. What pops out at me and may or may not pop out at you, the dew point is 9 degrees. The relative humidity is 18 . That means your indoor relative humidity is probably running about 4 or 5 so very dry air mass. I point that out because tomorrow night and friday morning could be very important because whats going to happen is that temperatures going to rise and the temperatures going to fall. Theyll meet somewhere in between. Thats going to mean a little snow. Cold start, grab a winter coat for tomorrow. Bus stop temperatures, 26 to 42. Not windy or breezy tomorrow but still cold. Thursday afternoon just a few clouds and a little bit chilly, not a bad day, and then friday snow and or rain for both commutes, yes, for both commutes. Futurecast 10 00 tonight, upper 30s in manassas, upper 30s in leesburg, its clear, low 40s downtown and then were going to advance pretty far. By 6 a. M. In the morning were looking at temperatures in the low to mid 30s. A few high clouds to the south and west to us. Were going to advance to 6 p. M. Almost 24 hours from now. 6 p. M. On the futurecast. Were still partly cloudy. Were okay. High clouds streaming in. All the precipitation is way to the south and west of us. By 6 a. M. Well stop, and now blue is snow. Green is rain, and then the magenta is a mix. Its really going to be one or the other. Its not going to be that much sleet at all. Just rain or snow. Think of that. Thats the legend up there. Noticed temps, 36 downtown, 34 in manassas and leesburg and gaithersburg and frederick. Its got to snow really really hard if service temperatures are above freezing. If you have a little elevation you may be around 32 degrees. Get a little more accumulation other than the grass. For the most part its going to be accumulation on the grassy surfaces. 38 by noon, still snow north of town, and down into Southern Maryland even across i66 into manassas. I think everybodys going to end as rain by evening. Prepare for two wet commutes on friday, therefore a yellow alert. Tonight just clear and cold again, 26 to 34. Winds out of the northwest at about 10. Theyre finally calming down. Day planner, 34 to start, clear skies, 37 at 9 00. 43 by 11. Just few high clouds by 1 00 and 47 walking to lunch i think you would probably want a little jacket. So on friday theres your yellow alert, a. M. Snow, then rain, 44. Were going to make it above freezing no doubt, and the good news is it cant stay cold long this time of year. Spring arrives at 6 45 on friday. Mild again on saturday, our first full day of spring will be nice with temps around 60. Next sevenday, temps will go down a little bit. Upper 50s on sunday but with sunshine.
