richmond into the carolinas, but that will stay to the south of the metro area. and over the last 12 hours, that sprinkle activity has dissipated around the immediate metro area. there may be a few sprinkles northern loudon, southwestern frederick county in maryland and right along the end of warren county line. there may be a few sprinkles there. as this morning progresses, we will stay chilly. it's in the 40s. much of the area. near 50 in washington. and by the bay. but then by noontime, we should be warming up to the mid-50s early afternoon. sunrise, 7:38. and by mid to late afternoon, the sun breaking out. and a gusty northerly wind. a look at the evening planner in ten minutes. joe? >> thank you, tom. all lanes of the inner loop of the beltway are back open after a deadly crash earlier this morning. it happened near georgia avenue. police say an suv crashed into the back of the tractor trailer truck, killing the driver of the suv. investigators are looking into what caused that crash. the roads were closed for several hours while police

investigated the accident scene. let's go to donella now for the rest of the traffic and the traffic impact from this accident. still see some? >> it's much better on the inner loop. but i need to focus now on i-66 because right here if you're taking i-66 heading east at the beltway, your right center lane is blocked due to the accident there. and i am starting to see significant delays as you make your way towards the beltway. here's a view at nutley. you can see these cars are at a standstill. bumper-to-bumper trying to edge towards the beltway. i'm going to keep watching this for you and give you another update in ten minutes on this accident. and taking i-270, got to show you some congestion building just a bit at shady grove, but your lanes are open as you head towards the spur. not seeing any accidents to report for you and on the rails, metro and vre running or close to schedule. however, on the brunswick east 872 a minor delay of five

minutes.escalators were down but they're back up and running. a maryland woman is in jail this morning for leading police on a high-speed chase that ended in a crash on i-95. howard county police chased the woman into prince george's county before she lost control of her car and crashed in the median of 95 near the new exit to the icc in laurel. the driver suffered minor injuries. we still don't know why the chase started or where it originated. and what kind of charges the driver may face. prince george's county firefighters are investigating what sparked an apartment fire at an apartment complex in landover on hubbard road. the person who lives in the apartment told us he was not home at the time. firefighters contained it to just one unit. no one in thbuilding was hurt. a traffic alert for drivers in fairfax county this weekend. the traffic pattern is changing on the beltway near tysons corner to help with congestion. by monday morning all inner loop lanes will be shifted to the right onto a new bridge over route 123. this will also allow you to get

protesters plan to make their voices heard at a big event downtown. demonstrators plan to march from mcpherson square to the washington convention center where they'll protest at the defending the american dream conference. the march begins at 6:00 this evening. and that conference is drawing some big-name politicians. republican presidential candidates mitt romney and herman cain are scheduled to speak as well as rudy giuliani. the americans for prosperity foundation is sponsoring this event. herman cain wants to spend a normal day on the campaign trail with a stop in new york before he comes to washington later. but that could change. later today we could hear from one of the women who claims the gop presidential hopeful made some unwanted advances toward her. attorneys for the woman have asked that a confidentiality agreement be thrown out, citing that cain is speaking about the incident publicly himself. cain denies the reports and released a new campaign video. >> they can't argue with herman

cain on the merits. they can't argue with cain on policy. so what do they do? >> now we're getting the high-tech lynching of a beautiful man, herman cain. >> this is a circus. >> cain's campaign says that the sexual harassment allegations and reporting on them are a high-tech lynching. the campaign is trying to get out the message that the media is mistreating cain as some claim happened to supreme court justice clarence thomas and his relationship with anita hill during thomas' confirmation hearings. a tennessee man faces ten years in prison for allegedly making profanity-laced threats against house majority leader eric cantor and his family. the fbi says 62-year-old glendon swift threatened to destroy the congressman, rape his daughter and kill his wife. agents say swift made the comments in voice mails at the cantor's office near richmond. swift is due in court next week. 6:06. the final question conrad murray's attorney asked the jury

before they decide the doctor's fate. also a chance of rain this morning. your weather and traffic on the 1s next. whale watching becomes whale dodging. the video that everyone's going to be talking about

being in the driver's seat of a formula one car is sometimes about more than breaking speed records. it's about breaking barriers. and exploring how robotics systems work is about more than taking apart machinery. it's about dismantling stereotypes. no matter who you are, or what you love to do, you get the chance to master it at rochester institute of technology. around here, we only expect one thing from our students: to be totally and completely unexpected.

it could have been a jonah-like experience for a surfer. this video is going viral now. these two humpback whales look as if they almost swallow a sifsher sitting on the surfboard behind that boat. as they burst out of the water off the coast of santa cruz, california. the video was shot on monday about a quarter mile off the beach. local newspapers say that a pod of humpback whales has been hanging out off of santa cruz for a couple of weeks now. in the video, the whales are actually lunging out of the water to catch schools of anchovies in their wide-open mouths. how many anchovies does it take to feed a whale? a lot. >> a really, really big number. if you look at the video, the woman on the surfboard is sitting up. then the whales come in, all of a sudden she's on her belly paddling away. >> wouldn't you? >> yeah. i don't think you could palddle fast enough. >> that's exactly what you would be doing. >> a lot of people are looking at this video thinking, you think it's real in this age of youtube and computer technology? hard to tell. >> it is hard to tell.

but one thing that's not hard to tell is tom is real and he's going to tell us all about the weather. >> well, good morning. weather and traffic on the 1s right now at 6:11. it is cloudy this morning. we have had a few sprinkles overnight. but those are pretty much gone now. just a cloudy sky around washington. there are still some lingering sprinkles just south of fredericksburg, over toward charlottesville. but that should stay to our south. the whole area is moving east. it's still going to be a bit of a damp morning from charlottesville into the northern neck. a few sprinkles there. it's in the 40s throughout most of the region under the clouds. near 50 in washington and by the way. later today, sunrise 7:38. and we'll have a cloudy morning and still cloudy midday. winds will increase this afternoon out of the north, though, as that low-pressure system pulls away. sun should break out by mid to late afternoon. winds gusting to around 25 miles an hour. we'll have a blustery, chilly evening under a clear sky. down to the low 40s by midnight.

a look at the weekend and next week in ten minutes. how's traffic? >> normally on fridays traffic is much lighter than the weekdays, but today is not the case. 66 east, have an accident taking your right center lane away. and you are jammed as you make your way towards the beltway. in fact, here's a few at nutley. and the cars are still at a complete stop. i've checked in with this accident, and i hear it should be out of the roadway very soon. but right now, it's still taking away your right center lane. traveling the beltway at new hampshire avenue, you're still very slow on the outer loop towards georgia avenue. i'll give you your travel speed now. you're traveling at 33 miles per hour as you make your way from i-95 to i-270. and taking the rails, minor delays. still on the mark. brunswick east line, just six minutes. joe and eun, back to you. >> thanks a lot. 6:12. 51 degrees. coming up, the first lady's message not falling on deaf ears. how she's inspiring people to change their lives. ♪ there you go.

welcome back at 6:15. take a look at this unusual situation. it shows a police car in brazil slamming into a small plane to stop it from taking off. the officer behind the wheel then jumps out of the car and runs toward the plane with a gun. authorities in brazil say the plane was filled with computers, phones and other electronics that were going to be sold on the black market. well, today jurors will begin deliberations in the manslaughter trial against michael jackson's personal physician. prosecutors argued that dr. conrad murray gave the singer a fatal dose of the powerful anesthetic propofol and used it as a sleep aid. the defense claims that jackson was to blame for his own death by giving himself the final dose. >> every single doctor that testified in this courtroom told you they would never do what

conrad murray did. every single doctor. because they know it could lead to death. >> if it were anybody else but michael jackson, anybody else, would this doctor be here today? >> of course, any verdict the jury reaches has to be unanimous. if convicted, murray could be sentenced to up to four years in prison. it is a big weekend ahead for the nba. labor negotiations are expected to resume tomorrow, a week after talks broke off. but a group of about 50 players is also threatening to push for decertifying their union. that would allow players to file an antitrust lawsuit against the league. players and owners are still butting heads over how to split revenue. the league already canceled a month of the season and more games could follow. well, the redskins' offense is going backwards. and this weekend, it faces one of its biggest tests yet. the san francisco 49ers come to down on sunday with a 6-1 record and the best run defense in the league.

that's not good news for the offense that put up only 26 yards rushing last week against the 20th ranked rushing defense. not to mention keeping john beck upright. kyle shanahan has heard the critics and is confident, he says. >> anytime you get shut out, i expect it from my critics, from my wife, from myself. it's embarrassing. really what matters to me is whether the players believe in me or not. that's what it comes down to. the players have confidence in you and they believe what you're doing, then you've got a chance. i believe in these guys, they believe in me and we've got to go to work. >> the redskins and 49ers face off at fedex field at 1:00 come sunday. this weekend you have an extra hour to enjoy extra cocktail or snacks or whatever you enjoy or just sleep an extra hour. remember to set your clocks back an hour saturday night before you go to bed. daylight saving time ends at 2:00 a.m. on sunday morning. that means it will get dark an

hour earlier. firefighters say this is also the best weekend to change the batteries in your smoke detectors. because of the time change, metro will provide an extra hour of service. the transit agency will close at 3:00 a.m. sunday morning. tonight metro will close five stations on the red line for track work. the tokoma, forest glen, glenmont, wheaton and silver spring will close tonight and reopen monday morning. metro suggests adding at least a half hour to your travel time to compensate for these station closures. with all the traffic in our area, accidents are bound to happen. and now we know how much all of those wrecks cost. according to a study by aaa, accidents on washington-area roads cost $7.4 billion a year. that takes into account 350 traffic deaths and more than 42,000 injuries in 2009. but crashes cost less in our area compared with the rest of

the nation with a crash costing about $1300 per person here compared to $1500 nationwide. researchers say that's likely because we have to drive slower and slow speeds in accidents caused less damage. many buses offer incentives to their employees to lose weight and stay healthy. >> but not many people can say they have the first lady as a motivator. many employees who work in the white house, and michelle bp has encouraged them to make healthy lifestyle choices, and it's paid off. three chefs say they've lost close to 100 pounds combined in about 18 months. wow, pretty good. one white house curator says she's doing it so she can have arms that look as good as the first lady. now, that's a tall task. she's got great arms. i don't know how much exercise you've got to do. there's a town in florida with michael jackson on the mind. they heard his music loud and clear all night long. take a listen. ♪ billie jean is not my lover >> that is a public address system at a high school football stadium blaring "billie jean." this was in south florida in lee county. the p.a. system played the music

for eight hours. and played the same song over and over. >> i like the music, don't get us wrong, but we've got to sleep. >> i'm a michael jackson fan, too, but eight hours? that's a bit much. school administrators say the systems are new and they haven't worked out all the kinks. why do you think "billie jean"? >> maybe they were checking the sound out and somebody fell asleep and forgot to turn it off. that's crazy. >> yeah. let's go to tom and find out what the weather's going to be like. >> this morning we're starting off with a cloudy sky. overnight we had a few sprinkles coming through, but those have dissipated now. still cloudy here, getting a little light rain, parts of the northern neck stretching all the way over to charlottesville, but that's beginning to pass off to the east and should stay south of the metro. right now a chilly morning. it's in the low to mid-40s for the mountains. from the blue ridge east on the bay, it's generally in the mid to upper 40s. near 50 in washington. and right on the bay waters, it's a bit milder. and as the day progresses, sunrise at 7:38.
