Hurricane Irene Threatens East Coast
Hurricane Irene churned off of the southeast coast of the United States Thursday morning. Irene is expected to continue in a northwesterly direction and then change to a northerly direction with time. There is some uncertainty as to where the storm will ultimately end up. However, there has been some shift west with the computer model tracks. Also, Ocean City, MD has started phase one of their emergency plan. They are evacuating international workforce students and asking visitors to postpone trips.
For the DC area, it is unclear how much Irene will impact the area. Please stay tuned to this website AND our Livestream for the most up to date information.

Bomb Threat Disrupts Metro Red Line
Rockville, MD -
Montgomery County Police and other local authorities are wrapping up an investigation after a female Metro passenger made a bomb threat as she exited a Red Line train. According to some witnesses, the woman dropped to her knees in prayer after speaking to somebody on the phone. There were unconfirmed reports that she had just heard about a Muslim bombing in India.
