. parts of new york are digging out this weekend from three days of heavy snow. the storm has dumped up to 4 feet in the watertown area, about 70 miles north of syracuse. other nearby areas are blanketed with about 2 feet of the white stuff. . so for those who dread the snow, count your blessings. it's cold, but it could be worse. >> exactly. we have zero inches of snow on the way. but we do have a storm system on the way. that is going to bring quite an issue for us as we're heading out the door on monday morning. let's get it started with a look at the michael & son weather cam. it is cold out there, but at least the wind is no longer an issue. it's 27 and the winds are out

of the south-southeast at only 3 miles per hour. so there is negligible windchill out there at the moment. in our weather headlines tonight, pretty much the same story. it's going to be very cold, but the wind is no longer really causing any kind of windchill factor. then on sunday, we're going to stay dry and it gets milder. high temperatures finally getting above freezing here in the metro. rain arrives overnight sunday into early monday morning and freezing rain is likely, especially in the mountains. you'll see that on 9 future cast. current temperature, look how cold it is out here, especially to the north of the beltway. 18 in gaithersburg, 20 in martinsburg as well. if the freezing rain were coming tonight, we would be in big trouble. but here it is. it's still hundreds and hundreds of miles away, moving through the houston area, making its way into louisiana. as it moves toward us, it will start to erode away the cold air. good news here, that there won't be that depth of cold air in place anymore when this

system arrives from the south and west and you'll see that here on 9 future cast. so tomorrow will be a dry day. we start out in the 20s, but then we rise into the 30s, even up to about 40 degrees in some spots before temperatures start to fall again. increasing cloud cover as we head into the afternoon and evening. then the showers start to move into the 81 corridor around midnight and notice these temperatures just at or below freezing in some of the spots where the rain is falling. so we could get a light coating of ice and then the rain continues to move toward us as we head into that morning commute and we will see some patches of freezing rain, possibly even into the beltway as this system makes its way through. but the rain breaks up into just light rain showers as we head past the morning commute. by the time you're heading home, we might actually get a little bit of a break here and we might actually have a dry commute home. we still have more arctic air on the way. after that system moves out tuesday, we're back to the cold

stuff. so make sure that you account for the possibility of your pipes freezing. if you have an older home especially, you want to leave the cabinet doors open and leave that water running. bring the pets inside. keep your space heaters away from curtains and other things. overnight tonight, clear and then the cloud cover moves in. temperatures around 8 in the suburbs, down close to 20 degrees in the outlying -- i'm sorry, in the immediate metro. temperatures will be in the 20s on sunday morning, partly cloudy, not breezy, though. then in the afternoon, lots of clouds move in, but it's still going to be dry. highs between 35 and 40. still below average for this time of year, but better than it was today. then on monday, a yellow alert day. the potential for ice, especially in the northern and western suburbs, a high of 40 in the afternoon. so the ice melts. then on tuesday, we get the cold blast again, a high of 35. in the first alert seven-day forecast, 30s. stay with us through the entire work week, and in fact, we might have some snow showers on

wednesday, putting down a light accumulation. so there is a little bit of snow in the forecast. right now, it remains to be seen whether that is just a flurry or a flake or an actual coating of snow on wednesday, but check out these temperatures, staying very cold even for this time of year. terps letting everybody know we play big ball around here. >> today was a big game. it was on the road, not necessarily the opponent, but the situation. i'll explain that. maryland with an important road trip today. the opponent was part of it, but the situation, even bigger. terps with a major test and they pass it. i'll show you all the

the illini, bruce. not flashy, but tough. if you're not ready to play, they will smash you in their building, no doubt. so this was a test. terps, dreadful at illinois on wednesday. they didn't shoot much better today, but they played better. i'll explain in just a second. the triple, and that was good to get it going on. purdue scrapping like they always are, saving the ball on the sidelines. raphael davis with the lay-in. we got ourselves a pretty good ball game coming down the stretch. could maryland pass the test? how about pack again, as in leader of the pack. nice stutter step move there. balanced attack today. four guys in double figures. maryland surviving, 69-60, on the road. they are 15-2. that's a big win for them. while maryland knocking on the door in the top 10, georgetown remains on the fringe of the polls. the hoyas are long and athletic and could be a problem come march, but they haven't quite found their groove just yet.
