on the witness stand last week, he refused to answer questions about his relationship with levy telling defense attorneys it was a private matter. he has never publicly acknowledged having an intimate relationship with levy. instead, he said they were friends and would be friends today if she were still alive. condit is not facing charges in connection with levy's disappearance or murder but at one time, he was a prime suspect. alan justy also told the security he found no dna on any of the items belonging to chandra levy recovered from the crime scene in may of 2002. when the same items were tested sick years later by a private lab, dna from an unknown male was discovered on chandra levy's tights. dna that excludes ingmar guandique and gary condit. the prosecution maintains the dna belongs to someone who handled the tights after they were found in the park. but the defense believes the

today's question comes from becky henderson. she asks if last winter was at snowiest from 1899, what was the winter following 1899 like? was it snowy also. you know what she is got getting at here. tucker barnes is the keeper of all the stats, all winters and everything that you could possibly want to know so we turn to him to tell us what it was like back in 1900. >> thank you. let's get right to it. great question. i am often curious myself about this. in 1899, that was our second snowiest winter ever. our snowiest winter was last year. the following winter, drum roll, please, thank you, tony. we had 35.6 inches. so it was another snowy winter. i remember our average around here is about 16.5. >> at reagan national. >> reagan national wasn't

around then. >> so you get the idea. it was a second snowy winter. i looked at some other seasons where we had active snow in 1957, 1958. and in 1995 and 1996. every indication for the winter from official organizations, the national weather service, is that we will have a more average wasn'ter around here. >> what is average? >> about 16, 17 inches of snow here in washington a little more north and west. i think that will be pretty accurate. we have a three-month outlook here. you can see these are the temperature forecast for the next thee months and we're going to be close to normal here in the washington area and just off to the south an west,

above normal temperatures. this will take us through early january. and if we push on, you can see that is the forecasted precipitation. if anything, we'll be on the light side. right now, indications are that this will be a closer to average winter here in washington. >> when you talk about 16, 17 inches, it is not all at one time. you are talking about over a course of several months. >> over the winter. that average is for reagan national which tends to be lower than every place el in the region particularly north and west. so not out of the question to have a winter of maybe 25 inches across the region spread over the winter, something like that. >> spread it out. >> did you guys make your bet on first snowfall yet. >> we'll do that another time. >> i do have one other incident rhetting point. >> sure. >> researchers-- there is some research into whether or not landfalling hurricanes my influence the winter here. we'll see some something doesn't come out of that. >> i love the snow but i don't want to see a repeat of last

year. >> we're in the going to get that. that would be extraordinary to get that. becky, thank you for the question. if you have a question that you would like to have answered, go to myfoxdc.com and click on the weather tab. >> good one. >> let's check in with julie wright. that just mean more time in florida for you. >> you are reading my mind. i love t i want to know how much snow can i expect right there in gaithersburg. that is the one i need clear at all times. i only have a 13-inch beagle, folk. >> we'll give you your specific forecast shortly. >> get out the shovel, right, honey? bound 270 out of clarksburg looking good. no problems to report out towards the land divide. with it being a federal holiday, lighter than usual traffic volumes around town. that is what we're seeing. reversible roads, rock creek parkway, carrying two-way travel. still a quiet trip on 395 in

good morning, everybody. i'm holly morris. and on this veteran's day, to all of the veterans, i say thank you. we are live at speedy green car wash in manassas where they are also saying thank you to veterans. we have a few arriving as we speak. they are giving veterans a free car wash or motorcycle wash. this is the first motorcycle wash place in the district area -- in the d.c. area, and also the first self-serve detail place in the country. they use 100% recyclable water and biodegradable chemicals. we'll learn more and talk with the owner and find out why he's giving this veteran's day offer. i have a feeling it has to do

with the fact that his dad was a world war ii veteran. and we'll find out what this day means to a veteran washing his bike. and then we have the marines of chantilly standing at attention for us this morning because they will give the veteran's day salute. but they are having a wash and wax fundraiser here on sunday to raise money for their cause. and we'll talk to them and teach us how to put together the right care package to send overseas. they will tell us what we need and how to go about doing that. and so i guess the real moral of the story here is we're trying to find as many possible ways as we can to say thank you to all of the men and women who have served and who are serving. thumbs up right there. happy veteran's day, sir. thank you for your service. and we're going to come out here and get something clean in

the process. how about that. >> thanks, holly. our facebook fan of the day is lollita bobity williams. and she wants to give a shout out to the tiny might team. to be tomorrow's fan of the day, search fox 5 morning news and there is no space between fox and the 5 and post a comment. it's time for me to leave and say hello to allison who is joining steve. >> good morning to you. and good morning, everybody. we're on top of two big stories that could have you working longer for less pay and fewer benefits. >> that will get your attention. drastic measures to cut the national debt. we're talking about raising the retirement age, slashing social security and cutting taxes that many americans take advantage of. the future for all of us live on the capitol hill.
