Following up on this starting at 4 #Fox5DC Neighbors who live near intersection where this happened tell me the officer is lucky to be OK, bc the area is scary. I'll explain why. PGPD says officer is doing well & cause of collision under investigation. fox5dc.com/news/motorcycl…

As of now, we appear to have dodged some of the worst when it comes to weather, but as you can see, it still impacted flights at DCA. #Fox5DC

Tonight at 4/5/6, you’ll meet Parker. It’s a new tool the Montgomery County Transportation Department is using to make the Ellsworth garage safer. Not replacing a security guard. Not writing parking tickets. I’ll walk you through it all tonight. #Fox5DC

Join me at 4:30/5:30/6:30 tonight as we walk you through this. IT'S A LOT. And if you're not even going to the parade, you could still feel traffic impacts with some MAJOR road closures in Virginia near the Pentagon and Roosevelt Bridge. #StayAhead with #Fox5DC

Update along parade route. Active construction zone to try and clear up roads. As of now, MPD says plan is to have everything open by Monday AM commute. What impact potential rain could have is something we’ll be keeping a close eye on tonight and tomorrow morning. #Fox5DC

“I would bring your dog inside. There’s an alligator over here,” the Fairfax County Police officer said to someone outside the motel.

Just got off the phone with Army official. *AS OF NOW* no damage to DC streets. They walked parade route immediately after & again yesterday. Baseline testing was done a few weeks ago & they’ll re-rest a few weeks from now. But Army says steel plates appear to have worked.

From Mike Thomas Fact: Since May 1st, 8.9" of rain (and counting) has fallen at DCA, the 10th wettest in history for that time period for the airport (since 1942) and 19th wettest on record (since 1871). The drought has been essentially eliminated in the DC region.
