10:48 pm
40s. yes, i say, we can do this again tomorrow. if you felt like you got ripped off today, i know at my polling place, everybody had been inside all day and they said please tell us it's going to be nice again tomorrow so we can get outside and yes, you can. thanks for all of you who work the polls today in maryland. it is going to be a wonderful wednesday. it might not be quite as warm today. as high pressure slips off the coast. you may get a southeast wind, but it will be nice. then we change things up a bit for thursday. i'll give you a preview of what thursday is going to bring. a cool front is going to come through the area. it will produce showers. behind it, temperatures will tumble into the 50s and it will be breezy late thursday and on into friday. so, that's how things are looking. let's give you a picture of the next three days so you can plan accordingly. again, wednesday looking good for tomorrow at 68 degrees. if it's a few degrees cooler, it would be from the wind direction. thursday, lots of clouds and some off and on showers.
10:49 pm
57 degrees. friday, we're certainly cooler than we have been the last three days. down to 53 degrees. a lot more november like. but this was not. this was lovely. more of the weather we should have had in september and early october. temperatures in the upper 60s to 71 degrees at bwi marshall and again, temperatures really tank very quickly. it doesn't take us long to get into the 30s. we're there at culpeper. hagerstown 52 degrees. i'm not sure why that is. maybe their thermometer is off. d.c. at 49 degrees. hagerstown apparently the warm spot right now. but you won't be for long, dropping into the low 30s. 35 for front royal. germantown about 34. d.c. will drop to 43 and even fredericksburg dropping to 39 degrees tonight. so, want to show you the rain that is being produced. high pressure still hanging on. about 8 or 9 tornadoes produced tonight across east texas into louisiana and a small portion of oklahoma.
10:50 pm
so the severe weather threat has been big out here and we've had a little bit of snow around the wichita area and that extends into iowa. not tomorrow. we hold it one more day and that moisture will get stretched out. so your future cast showing you, we have the sunshine tomorrow. i'm pausing this tomorrow night at 10:00. because a little indication that some kind of on shore moisture might try to develop for those of you at the beaches. we'll watch that. our frontal system out to the west. maybe some showers though as early as thursday morning. so that actually moved the timing up a little bit from what we thought yesterday. morning showers possible thursday. maybe another slug in the afternoon as this moves over to the eastern shore along with the front. we'll begin to see clearing out to our west. might see left over snow showers late thursday and friday. but friday clears on out. it will be blustery and it will be cooler. so we'll enjoy what is on tap for tomorrow.
10:51 pm
tropical storm shawn has developed out in the atlantic and we are keeping an eye on this. we think probably not. a couple computer models get him closer. certainly going to get big swells and have to watch it in bermuda, because it will pass by closely. this is the storm system that passed off the southeastern united states this weekend. but it has been taking a while and now it has some tropical characteristics. it's going to move to the northeast and pass bermuda with winds of 60 miles per hour. if you are heading to the beaches, watch for those big swells. meanwhile, your five-day forecast, it's swell for another reason here in d.c. because tomorrow looks just as nice as today. even though it is cooler, we're in bargain territory. showers for thursday. that's the only rain i have on the five-day forecast. veterans day on friday, and moderate a bit for the weekend and we keep it sunny. >> like the sound of that. >> thank you. >> 19 kids and counting.

10:54 pm
were people saying hey, we thought this was a good episode? >> people were -- yeah, they loved it. they thought it was really well done. i don't think it was over the top at all. it was conservative. you saw a lit and will it certainly a lot of innuendo, but in the end, it wasn't this racy -- i think a will the of people on chat were saying really? that's it? we expected a lot more. where is all this action? so anyway, the chat was positive. >> more positive news for glee. nominated for a couple people's choice awards? >> yes, chris, corey montif, people's choice awards happen in january. both of those fellows got nominations and the show overall got several nominations. we'll find out if they are winners in january. that was huge. and also if you are a fan of glee music, which we all are. their christmas album, they did a second one and you can stream already at aol music. so aol will carry that and next tuesday they will release the christmas album to itunes.
