mola lenghi joins us live now from leesburg with a look at conditions there. >> reporter: it's been coming down a couple hours now, nothing really sticking, just at this point creating very wet conditions. virginia d.o.t. deployed hundreds of crews there out on the roadways now. you see the silo behind me. that's where those trucks are coming sort of in waves, coming to not only refuel, but to reload on salt. right now they're out on the roads. they're currently at a low level deployment. vdot tells me -- ddot tells me they are ready to step up deployment through the night. they have hundreds of pieces of equipment on stand-by ready to go as d.o.t. monitors the conditions all night long. what's the biggest challenge when you got a night like this? >> not knowing whether you're going to get the ice or the snow. ice is much more treacherous, harder to treat, but again we pretreated today throughout northern virginia and that will be a big help. so we'll start shooting the chemicals as soon as we need to. >> reporter: virginia d.o.t. is confident the roads will be treated and good to go, but

north of leesburg toward the frederick area. that's the 1 to 2. and you can see that line here coming through northwestern montgomery county up towards howard county mt. airy and damascus. fairfax, manassas woodbridge half inch to an inch mark during the morning hours tomorrow. most should wrap-up by around noon tomorrow. and then it just gets cold. 36 on your tuesday. but 28 on wednesday. 24 on thursday. look at the low. 13 for an overnight low thursday morning. many of you will be down between 0 and 5. that's the actual temperature thursday morning. friday we start to rebound a little bit. back into the 30s. 36 on friday. 34 on saturday. 39 on sunday. so we're in a very cold stretch here as we move through the next couple days. and notice what's happening here. a chance of a flurry on wednesday. but this is when we start to see dangerously cold air moving in. remember to bring the pets indoors, for sure. windy with gusts upwards of 20 to 30 miles per hour maybe higher. and because of that we'll be seeing wind chills in the teens during the day,

border, 1 to 4 between frederick and over toward leesburg and winchester. you get up south of montgomery county, gaithersburg, leesburg, rockville, silver spring trace to an inch and that might be pushing it. unfortunately normally in january this would be a slam dunk for a snowstorm, but we don't have any cold air. tonight here comes the heavy activity. you'll see yellows with 30s across the board. by midnight that's heavy rain, fredericksburg to manassas to culpeper, a cold rain, a miserable night, 34 in manassas, 33 in gaithersburg, but the upper air is what's going to lose the cold profile. that's why we're thinking primarily rain tonight. 3:30 in the morning heavy rain exiting east of 95. we get a little break early in the morning, about 6 a.m. on futurecast. then we'll see another round of rain and snow shower for the remainder of the day, but even then temperatures will be above freezing. day planner, 39 at 7:00, 38 at 9:00 with rain, 39 at 11:00 and 39 at 1:00 with showers. not a lot of movement in the temps. about next three days miserable for the

we have temperatures in the teens. 19 in leesburg. these are straight temperatures. not windchills. 18 in frederick, 15 in gaitherstown. temperatures well below freezing. by 9:00 we are still in the mid 20s downtown. by 1:00 you can walk to lunch but you still have the northwest wind. lots of sunshine. a bright day tomorrow and low 30s across the board. only 30 in frederick at 1:00 and low 30s downtown. by 6:00 the temps fall quickly. tomorrow night we are back in the teens tomorrow night in the bushes. 25 in gaithersburg at 6:00 and 32 downtown at 6:00. in the 7:30 hour temperatures will be in the low to mid 20s. clear to partly cloudy tonight. windy. very cold. more slick spots. 18 to 24 with winds northwest at 10 to 20. 24 for low downtown. low 20s around the beltway. teens in fairfax. 19 in fairfax and sterling. by morning plenty of sunshine but breezy and cold. 18 to 33. by afternoon, again, plenty of sunshine, breezy and still cold. 34 to 38 with a northwest wind at 10 to 15. it will feel a little bit on the cold side. we will break it down. pretty much clear s

leesburg lower 40s. maybe 43 in reston and mcclain. 40 in andrews, maybe 45 as you get in to charles county and southern maryland. and the temperatures are still pretty uniform. 34 in annapolis without any wind to speak of. so there is not a small craft advisory. now we'll break it down, these are city temps. 32 to start. you'll be in the 20s to start. 34 at 9:00. and 42 with the sunshine at 1:00 p.m. okay, so on saturday, yellow alert, no surprise there, mainly rain with a little bit of snow and the polar plunge fest that will be so cold and miserable. but a good cause. 40 for the high. 44 and pleasant on sunday. but then the clouds are return. next seven days. the reason why the clouds were returning on sunday is because of a clipper approaching our area from snow showers possible on monday. i'm not sold on the track of this just yet that they might dive up to the north. but in the wake of the clipper, much colder on tuesday and wednesday lower 30s. sunshine next thursday and back in the mid-40s. >>> t
