Cold though. Yeah, just incredible how clean and how far you can see with this air arctic air in place. What is not pleasant being outside though. Just want to show you those are all wind chill advisories. Its not just here in washington, its up and down the eastern seaboard in fact all the northeast under either wind chill advisories or wind chill warnings and we, too, are under that advisory right through the noon hour. The reason why right now. Heres wait feels like outside when you step out this morning. Feels like minus three here in the city, minus seven out at dulles. Minus seven in hagerstown. Winds blowing out of the north and west about 25 to 30 with air temperatures in the low teens and upper Single Digits. Ill have all the details on a very, very brutally cold forecast coming up in just a minute guys. Back to you. Actually at 7 oclock this morning the frigid weather is our big story. Today will bring record breaking cold air and bitter winds. Parts of new england will feel like the minus 40s as low as minus 15 throughout the rest of northeast. Winter weather is blamed for at week. More than 100,000 people throughout the midatlantic and new england without power on this cold morning. Nearly 4,000 flights have been canceled, all because of the storm. And of course because of the frigid conditions here we do have some School Closings and delays. There were a bunch announced this morning. Lets start in maryland right now. Well start with some delays. Frederick county Anne Arrundel county and Montgomery County schools, youre on a twohour delay this morning. Closures in maryland. Saint marys county school, youre closed. Prince georges county and Calvert County and Charles County schools, all closed. In virginia, arlington county, alexandria city and Falls Church City schools all on a twohour delay. Fairfax county and Loudoun County schools, youre closed today. Prince william, spotsylvania and Stafford County schools are also closed. Manassas city and Manassas Park schools are closed. Also the federal government open on time today. And you can see all the latest closings and delays scrolling along the bottom of your screen and on fox5d. C. Com and on the fox5 news and weather apps. Now the bone chilling temperatures, they have left the region shivering also responsible for a surge in water main breaks. Weve seen a bunch of em. The big one has popped up this morning on 27th street northwest. Thats near Rock Creek Park. Now, this will cause traffic headaches. Fox5s Melanie Alnwick is live on the scene with more now. Good morning, mel. Reporter good morning, steve and allison. This became a real problem about 3 oclock this morning and d. C. Water says that the repair itself probably wont be completed until at least maybe 1 30, maybe 3 30, 4 oclock this afternoon, the weather definitely making these repairs take a little bit longer. Longer time for even for them to be able to get the crews out here to begin excavating the road. Now, what youre seeing right now is really a huge improvement. A lot of this is just wet now because if you recall our live shot in the last hour, a lot of salt trucks and the plows were coming through here trying to get of here. We understand the goal is to get this road opened up in the next half hour or so to that rush hour traffic. I would normally never be able to stand right where im standing here 27th street at i and k. This is the main exit here for people off of Rock Creek Park who want to head to 66 west. Its a hugely traveled intersection andits all been shut down at this hour and even early on you can see the traffic kind of slowing down. Theyre not really sure where theyre going to go next since their exit is shut down, but, again, i do believe that this is going to clear in just a little bit. D. C. Water says it has had more than 200 water emergencies a day in terms of phone calls that theyre getting and theyve been dealing with more than 50 water main breaks. Theres a couple more in the city right now. We know this happens. This one is an 8inch main. Apparently theres a 6inch main and a 2inch main in this area, too, that have also popped in the last couple of weeks. So, this is definitely been problematic intersection and wssc also saying that it has had some 94 water main breaks and they really do have to prioritize, guys. In some cases especially some of the smaller cases where not that many people are affected theyre having to shut the water off and wait a little while to come back really try to triage which ones are the most critical. Were told its going to get taken care of but would probably be longer than people would like. Melanie alnwick, fox5 local news. You can tell from just the way that mel is struggling to talk a little bit out there that wind takes your breath away. Yeah, the cold. There we go. Looks like down in dupont 10 degrees. Ugh. Yes. All right. Lets do the lets go to the temperatures. 13 here in washington. These are your air temperatures. Dulles 11. Bwi marshall 10. Theme is this brutal arctic cold that weve got upon us and it will be just, you know, bear with the sevenday forecast. It gets bet by better by next week. Current wind chills this is the big story of the morning. Negative numbers for most everybody. Feels like minus three in washington, minus eight up in frederick. Winchester minus seven. Earlier this morning oakland, maryland, our friends out in western maryland, i know we got a lot of people who watch out there, minus 25 was the wind chill early this morning. My goodness. I just want to mention that were under a wind chill advisory through the noon hour. What can we expect today . Cold. Various levels of cold. Winds will be with us through much of the day. Daytime highs in the upper teens to about 20. Our big storm system from yesterday thats now north of maine there, you can kind of see it if you look carefully, it will be responsible for kicking the winds back into the midatlantic for the afternoon. So, it will be breezy and very cold later today and then a very cold weekend as well. Well have details on the weekend forecast coming up but you dont say very often a High Temperature of 20 in washington. Thankfully. Yeah, right. All right. Thanks, tuck. Yeah. Sen lets check on the roads this morning see how volume is and road conditions, erin. Im just dreaming about planning an emergency vacation somewhere. Its so cold out. Right now gw parkway we did have an earlier crash that cleared. It was blocking the right lane after 123, good. W parkway southbound. Residual delays pretty heavy back to the beltway. 15 Miles Per Hour average. Give yourself 15 extra minutes to get through that area. Big water main break scene weve been tracking. Traffic advisory for you. Melanie alnwick is out there tracking the progress. Its the 900 block of 27th street. Twentyseventh and k street is blocked northbound Rock Creek Parkway at virginia avenue blocked. Traffic diverted onto eastbound virginia avenue. 66 from i street blocked and Rock Creek Parkway from white horse freeway blocked. Thats causing some backups. Skyfox up over the area. If we can pull them up. Theyre checking out the mixing bowl and heading south to keep an eye on the commute. I can forward the maps along. Dealing with a water main break in falls church. Leesburg pike westbound between carlin springs road and columbia pike water main break with one lane opened. Volume has been all morning. Disabled car bw parkway before the beltway on the southbound side. Its blocking the right lane but look at all of that green. 50 through bowie is quiet. The beltway inner loop and outer loop look good. Use caution on the secondaries much watch for some icy conditions. Bridges overpasses on and offramps as well. Looks like the beltway and our major pretty quiet. Inner loop by pennsylvania avenue to the wilson bridge at speed. At speed through dale city. Five at the 301 split much smoother than what we were dealing with yesterday during the snow event. Well keep you updated. Metro rail lines on time. Thats your traffic. Number of flights diverted from new york city to our area yesterday because of the winter storm. One in particular got a lot of attention and aer lingus argentinas flight from buenos aires to j. F. K. Landed at Dulles International airport. Passengers sat on the tarmac for more than four hours. Then they were told that they would board buses to new york. Passengers said the pilot changed his mind and decided to fly to j. F. K. But at that point some called 911. Others even called our news room from inside the plane. They finally got off with many getting on those buses to new york. Tough situation for them. Dont forget you can always track the cold or the snow on fox5d. C. Com and on the fox5 mobile app. There youll find an up to the minute list of School Closings and delays. I just checked Flight Cancellations out of d. C. Were doing okay. Maybe a dozen or so canceled. Boston and new york seeing a ton. It wasnt supposed to be out for a few more days but its out the book rocking the Trump Administration on sale today after the publisher moved up the release date despite legal threats from the r our bob barnard is live outside of kramer books in northwest which was opened in the wee hours of the morning for crowds to get their first look at the book. Hey, bob. Reporter yes, hey, guys. We know the title now fire and fury and it went on sale at midnight here at kramer books and is already sold out. This is a very Controversial Book that the white house threatened to stop publication of, said it book from being published next week. Publisher moved it up. Its coming out today. Went on sale here at midnight. In the book the author Michael Wolff quotes steve bannon once a top assistant to President Trump as calling ivanka trump the president s daughter dumb as a brick. In the book steve bannon says that the russia investigation is like a category five hurricane going on inside the white house. Last night President Trump tweeted about the author Michael Wolff and well show it to you. He says basically i didnt talk to the guy. I never let him into the white house even though there are many reports of Michael Wolff multiple times going into the white house that the president green lighted the book spoke to him a number of occasions told his aides to speak to the author and now the president as you see is saying he didnt cooperate, that the book is phony and he calls his once trusted aide steve bannon sloppy steve. Sales of fire and fury were brisk. Folks here in washington bracing the frigid temperatures to line up at midnight to link down about 30 bucks for a copy of the book that has raised the ire of the white house. Im not going to waste my time or the countrys time going page by page talking about a book thats complete fantasy and just full of tabloid gossip cause its sad, pathetic. Reporter garnering the most attention statements from the president s former chief strategist steve bannon who said among other things that a meeting that donald trump jr. Had with a russian lawyer during the campaign was treasonous. Did steve bannon betray you mr. Trump. He called me a great man last night so he obviously changed his tune pretty quick. I dont talk to him. Thats just a misnomer. Reporter some things in the book seem almost demonstrablely untrue like trump didnt know who john boehner was despite mentioning him on several occasions and even playing golf together. But there is also a narrative in these pages that mentally trump isnt all there. After all the allegations in this book, donald trump needs to give a real interview conference or do something soon to demonstrate to voters that the allegations in this book that he is senile or incompetent are untrue. He needs to get out and lay those to rest quickly or it will stick. Reporter now in you want to get the book in your hands you got to go somewhere else. Kramer books reopens at 7 30 this morning but look at the sign on the door. Sold out. Fire and fury. It doesnt go on sale until today. Well, they stayed opened after midnight. They were opened until 3 00 in the morning or 1 00 a. M. Last night and so between midnight and 1 00 a. M. , they sold out of the book here. It is number one on amazon and its going to generate more conversation, guys, because, again, now President Trump is saying that the book is phony which is kind of what hes done in the past when he disagrees with things. Well see whether this sticks. Michael wolff the author says hes got hours and audio recordings of the conversations he had with white house officials that led to this book. All right, bob. I will say amazon, yes, bob, it is number one on amazon but it also says ships in one to two months so apparently supply right now. Reporter a lot of demand. Little limited. Yes, exactly. Thanks bob.
