The Department of Homeland Security will shut down this weekend if Congress can't figure out how to fund it. There's nothing even resembling a deal so far. ( Punchbowl News) Democrats want reforms to ICE; Republicans claim that making federal immigration agents show their faces and produce judicial warrants, as required by law, would endanger them somehow. ( NYT) One idea floating around is to split the bill so DHS operations like FEMA and TSA could continue. ( AP)

Good morning. Cloudy with a high around 39 today and a small chance of light snow after 1 PM. Snow chances continue overnight, with a low temperature near 25. Six more weeks of winter awaits us, according to a groundhog who just rose to the top of my enemies list. The Wizards host the Knicks tonight. The Capitals visit Philadelphia.

We've had a look at a fresh line of the hurdle track right out beside the chase track, Graffin said on Friday. In my opinion, this line is currently fit to race despite 22mm of rain last night. However, we do have the potential for a further 10-20mm of rain. We would like to get a bit of luck with that, but it is currently fit to race.

Good morning. Another very cold, very windy day awaits you, with a high around 21 that the wind will knock down to values as low as -2. A low near 7 overnight that, again with the wind, will feel as col as -5. Here's WTOP's list of closings and delays as the region continues to dig out from last weekend's storm.

Good morning. Partly sunny with a high around 43 today. The National Weather Service has issued a cold weather advisory beginning at 8 PM tonight. Temperatures will plunge to a low near 11 that wind will make feel even colder. As you may have heard, a major snowstorm is forecast for this weekend, with heavy snow beginning Saturday night. Enjoy the snow while it's beautiful, take care when shoveling, and I'll see you on the other side Monday.

When my boyfriend and I planned a 10-day trip to Japan, we had no idea what to expect. Although we've traveled around the world together, it was our first time visiting the country. Upon landing, everything felt completely foreign - it was evident I was far from home. Fortunately, we found Japan to be fun and easy to navigate as foreigners. With translation apps and a little bit of research, the majority of our trip went by without a hitch.

We needed these recent and endless rainstorms to symbolically wash away as much of 2025 as possible. But what a friggin' mess-so sorry for everyone impacted by the storms and king tides and power outages. While looking at Fortuna contentedly basking in her sunbath this morning, I'm not the only one thankful blue skies have returned after the deluge. The air is so clean and crisp.

Londoners making journeys by car and train will be keeping a close eye on the weather as snow and ice threaten to cause travel disruption.

Good morning. Gusty winds will make today's high of around 36 feel much colder. The strong breezes persist overnight, with snow flurries possible and a low near 26.

Here's some administration news you might have blocked out:

After days of deliberation and faced with a forecast getting soggier by the day, Santa Anita officials have decided to postpone opening day of the 2025-26 race meeting from Friday until Sunday, Dec. 28. It's just the second time since 1976 that Santa Anita will not open on the day after Christmas. The other time was in 2019 for the same reason: wet weather. More than eight inches of rain are projected to fall between Tuesday night and Friday at Santa Anita.

The chill's grip on us finally loosens today, as cold temperatures this morning yield to a high around 50 by mid-afternoon. A low near 30 overnight.

I can't stop listening to: Taisha Estrada, " El Abstracto ." This Puerto Rico-born DC-area artist has an astonishingly beautiful singing voice.

"We do have a nice area of low pressure sort of anchoring itself just to our west. And it is trying its best now to drive plenty of rain-laden moist air up and over us for most of this week." He continued: "And at the same time, we do have a cooler northerly flow which is developing just off to our north. And these two weather systems are sort of meeting head-on for most of this week."

From the beginning, my mistake was not realizing how drastically the weather can change from one region to the next. Now after visiting the country more than eight times, I've become an expert on what to pack for a trip to Iceland. I've learned that a backpack filled with back-up waterproof jackets and pants are a must, and that having more layers is better than just wearing one.

News from the ground is that the weather is looking perfect. It's hot out there around 32 degrees at the moment. It looks unlikely that the rain that crushed Pakistan's hopes in Colombo yesterday will travel up north to Visakhapatnam to put a dampener on this game. Share 1. Rubya Haider 2. Farzana Hoque 3.

Hello and welcome to Match 9 of the Cricket World Cup! Today we've got Australia taking on Pakistan, which should be an interesting match up. Pakistan are yet to win a game, but they bowled admirably against India. Their batting hasn't yet really fired at this tournament, which left them with a big defeat to India and unable to match it with Bangladesh. Against a very strong Australian bowling attack, they will need a hugely improved batting performance if they want to be in the game today.

"We are starting to see a little bit of a tease of fall here with temperatures the last few days, topping out in the 60s, which is around where we should be for early October,"
