If you saw something or noticed anything on October 29th regarding this incident, you're advised to call law enforcement. Back to you. Now let's turn to weather with a live look from our Arlington camera overlooking the monuments this evening. Jennifer Delgado is here now to join us with a look at the forecast. And we teased the snow off the top, Jen. So what are we having? We have to talk about it. That's right. You know, let's just calm everybody down. That doesn't arrive with that chance until we get until the end of the week. Tomorrow, we are going to be breezy. We'll be dry. We'll get some sunshine, some clouds. But it's by the end of the week that we could be looking at potentially our first winter weather of the season. Could we be looking at some snowflakes? Well, there is that possibility, and we're going to time that out for you in just a few. But right now, outside, everything looks good in D.C. We had a beautiful afternoon sunshine to start, and we were dry as we'd gone through the weekend. We haven't picked up any rainfall. Temperature right now, 55 degrees out of Reagan. You are the warm spot, and then 49 degrees elsewhere. We've got a few 40s around. And tomorrow morning, it's not going to be as cold. Overnight lows will be in the 40s. But as we look ahead, we do have a cold front just to the west of us. We'll be sliding through tomorrow in the morning, and our winds will shift out of the northwest. At times, we could get some wind gusts up to about 40 miles per hour. That is not good for the fall foliage, but it goes through dry. But we get some rain around on Thursday, and then after that, we're going to get some cold air in, and that's going to lead to our chance for potentially for some snow in the higher elevations. Here's your planner as we go through tonight into tomorrow. 61 degrees at noon. We remain dry. But then we look ahead for this threat for that. It looks like the timing of that would be Thursday into Friday. But for tomorrow afternoon, there's your high, 64 degrees in D.C., and then 67 in Quantico. Now we look at the European model. This is Thursday, 1.30. We've got some rain around. We're dry on Veterans Day. Then that colder air catches up with this low-pressure system, and that means we'll be looking at potentially some snow, especially right along the Alleghenies. Could we see some snowflakes working in? There is that possibility. It winds down as we go into your... Saturday morning, and then we'll dry things out. By the end of the week, it's going to be cold, breezy, and certainly windy as well. And that means a return to more winter-like conditions. We're going to talk more about that coming up, Katie, in just a few minutes. But the timing is perfect with the release of our winter weather outlook this week. All right. We'll check back in in just a few minutes. Thanks, Jen. D.C. police have arrested a 15-year-old boy in an investigation into shots fired at a high school football game. Officers were called to H.D. Woodson High on Northeast on Friday for reports of gunfire. According to a public incident report, 11 rounds were fired and officers recovered eight shell casings. No one was hurt. Police are not identifying the teen because he is a minor, but he is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and felony destruction of property. D.C. police are looking for a man wanted in a burglary in Northeast. This photo was captured around 2 a.m. on Friday morning at the home on the 1200 block of G Street. According to a public incident report, the front door window had been smashed in. The man told officers his keys and wallet were stolen. If you have information, contact police. Donald Trump has got to be able to agree and to work with the Democrats, or he's gonna doom the party, his party, the Republicans, for 2028. And so it's really all up to Donald Trump. He can be Dr. Veto if he wants. Scott Bolden, attorney and former D.C. Democratic Party chair, sharing his insight on the fallout after the midterms. Today, the Congressional Progressive Caucus introduces its newest members on Capitol Hill. More than 25 progressives will join the 120th Congress when it convenes on January 3rd. Voters from both sides expecting lawmakers to tackle the cost of living and to To confront the Trump administration at the moderate Republicans. Who are no longer or should no longer be afraid of Donald Trump and being primaried because he's a lame duck now for the next two years. There'll be a lot of pressure on them to join the Democrats if it's good for America and good for bringing back affordability, getting out of the Iran war, reversing these tariffs that they can do legislatively. There'll be a lot of pressure on the moderate Republicans to do just that, which in turn will put pressure on the White House. We'll certainly have to see. But accountability is really, really important. Democrats can walk and chew gum at the same time, and they need to have some accountability for this White House and any potential bad actors if the evidence is there, because it's their job. With the Republicans controlling the House and Senate and the White House, there was no accountability. There was no oversight. And so I don't think oversight is bad. If it comes to impeachment, so be it. If it comes to impeaching the head of the Department of War, then so be it. But there's got to be some accountability, because that's Republicans and Democrats on the Hill doing their job. Democrats in both chambers face a question of backing the old guard or picking new leadership. Some states are still counting the votes in House and Senate races that remain too close to call. The person set to fill Robert White's seat on the D.C. council will be sworn in tomorrow. The D.C. Democratic Party appointed Jamal Holtz to fill the vacant seat under the home rule charter. He will serve temporarily in that capacity until a special election can take place next year. And some shuffling around in the Maryland Statehouse. Governor Wes Moore announcing the transition of three cabinet positions. State Secretary Susan Lee, Public Safety and Correctional Services Secretary Carolyn Scruggs, and Veterans and Military Families Secretary Edward Rothstein all stepping down on Friday. Acting leaders have now been appointed while the search for permanent replacements gets underway. Montgomery County's incoming county executive takes office next month. Will Jawando tells us he wants to avoid any more cuts to county jobs and tax increases for residents. The 43-year-old Democrat racked up 80 percent of the vote on Tuesday. He has a long to-do list coming into office, including closing gaps in the school district's budget with a projected $300 million deficit next year. Are those difficult choices going to include cuts of jobs for county employees or taxes for residents? Well, look, I don't want to prejudge anything, but I can say those are both things I want to avoid. I think we, when I say difficult choices, we have to decide what we need to prioritize. Prioritize. Education's important. I chair the education committee. We need to make sure we deliver on critical county services. Jawando says he will also appoint a new police chief and county administrative officer. He plans to select the next police chief before his inauguration on December 7th. A big celebration with the return of the National Veterans Parade. Groups of marching veterans, the sounds of bands and floats lining the streets for the fourth annual event. The parade strolled down Constitution Avenue from the National Archives and carried on for several hours. The event happening right before Wednesday's holiday. And organizers say they hope the tradition will continue to grow next year. I think they battled, right? You know, it's tough and, you know, you're asking a lot of people to, you know. Hold up and block, obviously, Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett. Um, and... It's tough, but we've got to be able to go out there and communicate and pass things off and just hold up as much as we can. You can't really stop a lot of people, but you can slow them down, right? Washington quarterback Jaden Daniels reflecting on another setback. The Commanders had a slight edge against the L.A. Rams heading into halftime, but Washington would end up falling at home in the back half. The Commanders had a chance to at least tie the game late. But time ran out on their last drive, that final score 20-13. Head coach Dan Quinn says it was a frustrating game since the Commanders failed to sustain their success from the first half. We're halfway through the season, and that all has to click. After stops, I don't think we capitalized. We had two takeaways. I think we only got three points out of it. We had some opportunities for fourth down stops defensively to get those stops to get it flipped the other way. So all I said, it's a short week against our division leader on the road, and we've got to go. The Commanders have a short turnaround this week. Washington on the road this Thursday with another primetime showdown against the New York Giants. The Washington Commanders retired the jersey of running back John Riggins at today's game. Number 44 is a Hall of Famer who helped the team win the Super Bowl back in 1983. Riggins, a.k.a. the Diesel, went on to rush for more than 7,000 yards and close to 80 touchdowns with the Burgundy and Gold. He's now the seventh player in team history to have his jersey number retired. How do you think the commanders are going to do today against the Rams? Put my leg up here. Is that good? There you go, like that. You know, listen, I think the commanders have shown a little fight the last couple weeks. But the Rams, man, they're getting Myles Garrett back today. Him and Aaron Donald will be able to play together. That's going to be a tough chore for their offensive line. Good luck. There you go. Tough chore for the commanders against the Rams. Thank you so much, Jack. Thank you. Very impressive push-ups with our very own Julie Donaldson and Jay Glazer. Fox Sports over at the Naval Academy in Annapolis this weekend for a special military appreciation show. Coming up, stunning video of another mid-air emergency in Florida, plus a rare sight at a tourist hotspot, what visitors captured on their cell phone ahead. To a deadly train collision in Egypt, seven people died and more than 100 others injured after two trains collided. It happened south of Cairo. Officials say both trains were headed in the same direction, but the one that was hit was stationary at the time. Egypt's president has ordered an investigation into the crash. A plane makes a stunning emergency landing on a busy road in Florida. Dash cam footage catching the moment the small aircraft touched down in North Fort Myers. Deputies say a mechanical issue forced a pair of pilots to make the decision. Now, the aircraft did clip the back of a pickup truck in its descent there, but thankfully no one was injured. The FAA is now investigating. And caught on camera, a double water spout in Italy. The two swirling columns emerged from heavy clouds, creating a striking natural spectacle. Water spouts are relatively common over the Mediterranean in late summer and autumn when cooler air moves over warmer waters. This happened near Capri in the Bay of Naples. The island attracts close to three million visitors each year. Now let's turn back to the weather at home. Home with a live look from our Fox 5 Skycam in National Harbor. And Jen is back with us for one final check on the forecast. Hey, Jen. Hey there. Yeah, you know, you actually see that quite often happening right along the Mediterranean Sea there out of Capri. So certainly a nice feature. Luckily, no one was injured. Now, for us, we're not talking about potentials for things like that. But we could see some winter weather returning our way by the end of the week. Some of the higher elevations could be looking at potentially some accumulating snowfall. We might even see our first snowflakes of the season as we go Thursday into Friday. But for tomorrow, expect breezy conditions. We'll start off with some sunshine outside, and then the clouds will start to build back in. But we stay dry all the way through Wednesday, and then we'll start to see the weather just going downhill after that. But we check the airport right now. Our temperature, 55 degrees. Our winds are calm, and our dew points are in the 40s. And that means we're going to have a lot of snow. We've got dry air in place, and across the region, we're in the 40s as well as the 50s. Nothing too dramatic, 51 degrees right now in Gaithersburg, but our temperatures are actually warmer than they were this time yesterday, and that's because we had that southerly wind in place. Those temperatures right now running about 5 to almost 10 degrees warmer than they were, and then tomorrow afternoon, expect a high about 64 degrees, but we are tracking a cold front just to our west. That'll be moving through tomorrow morning. It'll bring some light rain to the far north, but for us, We stay dry as we go throughout the day, but it will be a breezy afternoon for many areas, especially right near the mountains. It could be even stronger. Wouldn't even be surprised if you see some wind advisory setting up. But for tonight into tomorrow morning, noontime 61 degrees. But as I said, if we go through the day, we could potentially see some of those clouds building. But let's look at the wind gusts for tomorrow afternoon. 27, 23, not bad. But if we go up to 35, even almost to about 40 miles per hour for tomorrow afternoon with those. Now we jump ahead to Tuesday. Sunshine returns, we're dry. Wednesday, Veterans Day, we're also dry. But then we go into Thursday. Low pressure will develop. And what it's going to bring is rain, frost on Thursday, and then colder air wraps in as we go. Thursday into Friday, bringing potentially some snow. The Alleghenies have the best chance for that snowfall, but we still could see some snowflakes working into our area as we go Thursday into Friday. At the same time, potentially maybe even some lake effect snowfall setting up for areas to the very far north. That all winds down and pulls away low pressure, and then we start to dry things out as we go through your Saturday. But at the same time, we're going to see much cooler air in place. Thursday, cool day, Friday and Saturday. Temperatures running 10 to almost 15 degrees cooler for some parts. And that certainly will be the first sign of that winter weather coming through for us. Now, as we look ahead for tonight, these are your low temperature, low 47 degrees in Gaithersburg, 49 in Quantico. And as we look at your seven-day forecast, we are dry for tomorrow as well as Tuesday into Wednesday. And then on Wednesday, Veterans Day, dry conditions. I know there are still some events outdoors. Thursday, rain around, very breezy and very cool. Cool. Thursday into Friday, and then Saturday, high temperatures only in the 50s, that rain winding down early. But, Katie, potentially, could we be looking at our first flakes of the season? I think a lot of people are excited about that possibility. I mean, it's hard to believe we're, what, 18 days away from Thanksgiving. So we've got to get our minds right for that, potentially. That's right. Plenty of folks, I'm sure, ready for that first snow. So bring it on, I guess. That's right. All right. Thanks, Jen. A historic home from New York City's Gilded Age will soon get demolished. The building on West 57th Street near Central Park sold for $42 million. And developers plan on building a soaring luxury skyscraper on Billionaire's Row. No timeline has been set for construction. Up next at 11, a new landmark has a legal hurdle to clear before breaking ground. What to expect in court this week? Construction for President Trump's 250-foot arch remains on hold right now. A federal judge has ordered the government to provide a status report tomorrow to ensure they are complying with the temporary restraining order. The two-week halt went into effect late Thursday following the National Capital Planning Commission giving final approval. This follows strong opposition from veterans and local leaders. A day after that design vote, a new website emerged showing renderings, and the landmark will be formally called the United States Military Triumphal Arch.

Plus, In the Courts is next. Popular or not, but it's the right thing to do, and presidents are elected to do the hard things, sometimes difficult things, but necessary things. Do you think the cost of the war was worth the electoral blowout? I told you I'm not going to comment on the electoral comment. I just don't have any opinion on what happened in the elections. On the two active conflicts you have now, there's going to be more strikes on Special Island. Well, the U.S. acts defensively. If there's a threat to our forces in the region, we will act against those. If there's a threat. To shipping. We've been defending shipping for a while. So if there's a clear and present threat to shipping or to our forces in the region, we have a right to defend ourselves. So all of that is determined by the threat level and whether they're coming after us or potentially coming after us. I mean, that's just normal. And then on Ukraine, Russia, Ukraine, the president quoted this idea as some kind of European wide security pact. Well, if you remember... Well, there'll be talks tomorrow starting tomorrow in Abu Dhabi. No, I need it. Oh, I'm sure. Well, but here because here's why. the entirety of the time we've been talking about russia ukraine the one thing that's repeatedly come up is the need for security guarantees what is the post-war security infrastructure of ukraine and more broadly of the european continent going to look like and it's one of the key topics that's been raised repeatedly in every conversation anytime negotiations have been discussed so i think that's what the president's alluding to is that there's been some advances
