whatsoever by tropical storm nadine. we look at future friend and follow this carefully because this shows you our chances for the showers to work their in here as we head into tomorrow. along the eastern shore a few showers around 5:00, but then there's that cold front back to the west and it looks like it kind of fizzes out before it gets here, but still going to keep the chance in for hours maybe north and west of town. this is what the forecast looks like into lunchtime today hour by hour. 77 degrees and by 3:00, we'll be right around 82. it's going to be nice and warm and seven day forecast looks like this. we will be seeing plenty of sunshine especially as we go into sunday but we will dry out nicely for saturday. and it's going to be a nice day for the o's to win again. let's get a check now of the abc2 timesaver traffic with lauren cook. good morning. good morning lynette. well, pretty cool that the orioles and the ravens are both in first place. >> love it. >> awesome. hopefully they can keep it up and beat the rays again this afternoon. a live look here at route 50 at st. margaret's you'll notice some delays in the area.

camera. the woman didn't want to talk to reporters but her mother did. she was riding in the car at the time and she says the bus they passed stopped to pick up disabled children on the street. >> the bus for some reason takes a large amount of time talking to the parent every day but he takes forever. while he's doing all that, we're waiting trying to get through. now this morning she was late she was trying to get her daughter to school. the reason for going around and going on the sidewalk was to give the bus plenty of room. >> the driver was cited for not stopping for a school bus. all right, take a look at this check this out. it looks like something from a sci-fi movie. pretty cool. newly released video from the department of defense shows a robotic mule going for a hike. it's designed to climb really rough terrain without initials. this prototype -- any wheels. this prototype has better climbing ate built than earlier -- aid built than earlier mod -- ability than earlier models. this morning we have some
