Night and ahead of it saturday afternoon, evening, looks like it will be unsettled. Look at this shot this morning at 6 00 a. M. About 40 minutes until the sunrise. Well have a decent amount of sun today mixing in with some clouds. A spotty shower or storm but the best chance of that south and west of d. C. Low 80s by lunch time on our way to the mid to upper s on, even near upper 80s. Even near 90 for that high. Average high right now is 84. So well be a little bit above that today, tomorrow and saturday before nice changes head our way. Been tracking these storms off shore, no problem. Theres been some activity here from fredricksburg up towards stafford this morning, even toward the warrenton and culpeper areas. Boy, these showers are really falling apart. You can barely track that one just to the west of i95 north of stafford. This other light one toward dahlgren is falling apart. Well watch that guy. Visibilities not too bad but we do have a couple of spots where fog is trying to form up in frederick at a mile and a quarter. Temperatures, youll feel that this morning. 60s and 70s and still a little bit muggy going well into the 80s. Thanks, howard. Today the Justice Department is expected to announce it will open a civil rights investigation into the Police Department in ferguson, missouri. Police in the st. Louis suburb have been under scrutiny since last months deadly shooting of teenager Michael Brown by Police Officer the investigation is going to look into patterns of arrest used by the police force. Separately the Justice Department and the missouri grand jury are conducting vegs into the incident conducting investigations into the incident that killed brown. Body cameras for Police Officers have become a hot topic on social media. Beginning this fall the d. C. Police department is going to begin a test group of officers who will wear bodymounted cameras. Vanessa herring is live at Police Headquarters on indiana Avenue Northwest with more on that. Vanessa . Reporter good morning. Talks had already been under way here in the district about using cameras, body cameras on Police Officers. Chief cathy lanier says this isnt in response to the shooting of Michael Brown. Officers will start wearing the cameras on october 1 according to the washington times, but this is just a Pilot Program. Were not sure when full program could be rolled out. The officers will wear the cameras for about six months and that will happen city wide. The department has spent several months building up a supply of at least 250 cameras at a cost of about 280,000. Chief lanier announced plans for a Pilot Program back in january well before browns shooting. Lanier wants the program to hold officers accountable and she also wants to protect them from any false claims of misconduct. Theres residents are reacting to the announcement of this Pilot Program. If youve got it on film, it conceivably will expedite a way a lot of these cases be it throughed at managerstive process or criminal process are handleled. I think its a handled. I think its a good idea because it will hold them accountable. It could be an instrument for more loss of civil liberties. The mpd has about 4,000 officers and thought all of them are going to be wearing the cameras when theyre issued on october 1. Again, this is just a Pilot Program. Were not sure when the full program could be rolled out. Back to you. Well look for those on the test group october 1. Thank you, vanessa.

Facebook is apologizing for its third outage of the summer. Yesterday the site went down for about 15 minutes. It was long enough to cause an uproar among some loyal users of the words largest social network. Facebook blames the problem on what it calls an infrastructure configuration adjustment. People even called 911 when their facebook was down. A little absurd. Heres a tip to save some money on your phone bill. I did not know this. Be sure to turn off the auto play setting on facebook videos. The problem is smartphone users are at risk of maxing out their data plan if they dont change that default setting on the facebook app because it automatically starts streaming the videos in the news feed of the window and it can eat up your windows. The Prince William county Planning Commission has voted to approve a plan for stone haven. The board of supervisors will still have to give the green light to the project. The 85acre project would include a New High School and possibly a new middle school. It there would also be road improvements, new sports fields and walking trails. Opponents point out the plan wouldle mean more traffic. Dont expect service with a smile at your local Fast Food Restaurant today. Thousands of fast food workers across the country plan to walk off the job. The workers at mcdonalds, burger king, kfc and other restaurants are demanding a pay raise.

So the liquor business could be transformdz for the first time in decades transformed for the first time in decades because of an app called drizzly.

Does it feel as pretty as it looks . No. Its still a little muggy out there. 75. Not as bad as it was earlier in the week. Yesterday was awful. But the futurecast holds fall for us. Once we get past saturday. Saturday will be a big hurdle with showers and storms in the yellow alert day. Sunday looks good. Sunday looks easily the better day of the weekend and monday and tuesday we start next week very, very comfortable. So if you can stretch it into another long weekend, do it. Weather wise, lets show you whats happening with doppler 9000. We had some showers tracking across areas to our south in the fredricksburg region. Thats really not much more of a concern. Over the last 60 minutes you saw a few showers in stafford and king george, trying to get toward the potomac. Where did they go . They just fell apart as they approach the river. You see them up here in stafford. Everything is moving northeast. Maybe a little just a little spritz west of quantico on the west side of i95. Pretty skies this morning. Sunrise coming up in about 25 minutes. We have 79 by 11 00 with the mix of sun and clouds. Well be in the mid s on by 1 00. Upper 80s, even near 90 for the high today. A spotty shower or storm this afternoon. Best chance of that will be south and west of d. C. Temps this morning, you can still leave the jackets at home. Got 60s and low 70s out there. A little cooler when you head north of i80 up into pennsylvania and new england. A few spots have dipped into the 50s. Were not talking the crisp, cool air yet. That will be arriving here starting sunday. Right now were down in the mid 60s in white oak. Laurel 65. Out to the west we have 66 for reston and dulles this morning. Haymarket at 69. Waldorf is comfortable at 66. Look at owens here in calvert county. 65 degrees. So thats a decent start to the day. Pretty good color. Im going to step out of the way. I love the reflection of the capital and the clouds and the potomac when we have light winds. Thats what weve got. East wind only 5 miles an hour at the moment. 73 degrees in walk with that relative humidity at 78 . Our futurecast, this is showing just a spotty shower chance for the afternoon. You see it south of town here at 2 00. In the mountains trying to pop a shower here and there. Nothing terribly widespread. In fact, all we have are spotty showers today and even tomorrow a spotty isolated shower or storm as we head into the middle of the day and afternoon. A couple of showers Eastern Shore and down toward richmond. As we head into saturday, thats when everything changes. We have a strong cold front coming saturday night. Well start the day with a few clouds, patch of fog. Mix of sown and chowdz. By late morning clouds. By late morning were already starting to pop some showers. We can still see some activity any time in the afternoon. Looks like the concentrated area at 4 30 from harrisburg back in toward western maryland and West Virginia will be approaching d. C. 7 00, 8 00, 9 00. Behind it the air mass changes. Well be in far better shape i believe starting sunday. Today, though, still on the very warm to hot side, near 90. Spotty shower or storm. 74 tonight with upper 60s. The winds today are southeast or southerly tonight. Nothing too strong. 91 tomorrow. A few afternoon storms. Nothing too widespread but saturday, yellow alert day saturday. Mainly afternoon and evening showers and storms. You have plans saturday outside in the evening like me, i hope it will work out. Getting nervous about that sunday looks great, 82. Tuesday could see a shower and wednesday could actually be wet and if it is, 82 will be too warm. Well stay in the 70s. Monika samtani, 6 17, timesaver traffic. Going bad to worse. It suddenly got super, super busy. I have a lot to tell you, especially in maryland. Fir of all, you want to first of all, you want to watch out for a couple of things. A house fire on aspen hill. You can use parkland drive or Even Connecticut avenue as your alternate routes and our Nick Giovanni is on the scene. Hell have more information for us in just a few minutes. Theres also an accident that involves a car and a pole down on georgi closed between brookeville road and greg road. Youll have to follow Police Direction to get around that one. 270 itself expect the delays now off and on out of frederick. The heaviest stretch will be 109 to 121 which is always the case president it opens up at route 121 in clarksville. Lets go to a couple of live pictures. Outer loop side of the beltway just as i predicted in the 6 00 hour this already slows down. This will be continuous through the morning rush hour. Hopefully it stays incident free. Right now just that typical volume as you leave New Hampshire to georgia. Thats the top stretch of the beltway. 95 is not affected right now coming down from calvertton to the beltway in college park. Heefertion the beltway on the west side of town. Looking good across the American Legion bridge both directions between bethesda and tysons corner. In tysons itself no issues route 123 and route 7. Were looking good on the dulles toll road and even on 66 which slows down manassas into centreville. Again, thats typical as well. Lets go back over to the maps. Wants to tell you a couple of things. First of all on the bw parkway, ive been telling you earlier about a crash inside the beltway near route 410. That was cleared up. It left some delays coming in from the beltway. Looks like that is fine right now. Over in anne arundel, east fur nat branch road will be closed Furnace Branch road will be closed through the rush hour. It was a fatal Early Morning crash near route 648. They opened up 648. Youre fine there but east Furnace Branch road will remain closed for some time. You want to watch out for a medical emergency near telegraph road. Everything i think has moved on but left some traffic. Ill see if we can check out the 14th street bridge. 95 looks good as you come up from dale city to springfield but once you get on 395, youre beginning to see some brake lights as you come up from duke street to the 14th street bridge though the lanes are open. No issues to report at this time. Back to you guys. Thanks, monika. Traffic on h street has been driving a number of you crazy. The Citys Department of terrific is imposing new rules which would limit bicycle traffic along h street along the path of the new streetcars. Another proposal would ban transporting a bike on a streetcar during rush hour. Ddot is giving the public the opportunity to provide some feedback on the proposal so weigh in. An estimated one out of every four recalled cars never gets fixed. Thats because car owners often dont even know about the recall. The national Highway Traffic Safety Administration has a new website feature to help you with that. You log on to safercar. Gov, enter your vin, your vehicle dent indication number and the site will list any open recalls. Some are concerned it may shift the onerous on to consumers and away from used car dealers who knowingly csell recalled cars. Were concerned dealers will try to say well now anyone can access this so its up to you to find out. Most Consumer Products cannot be sold once theyre recalled but there is no law preventing used car dealers from selling you a recalled car that hasnt been fbied. Been fixed. The roads are clogged with people back at work, back at school. Summers over. Wusa9 wants to help you find the best and worst gas prices in your area so you wont be driven crazy.
