I just spoke with an official from WSSC who says initial test results on the safety of Montgomery County water will be in at 1am Wednesday. I'm in the field now working on gathering the very latest information on the situation with the break, the water quality, and I'm also looking into how Montgomery County and WSSC handled notifying the county's 250,000 residents. As you may have seen in Stacy Cohan's 6pm report, many restaurants had no idea they shouldn't be serving customers. Take a look at the pictures I took today at the site of the break in Rock Creek Regional Park in Gaithersburg and please tune in for FOX 5 News at 10 and The News Edge at 11 for a complete report.

I joined FOX 5 as a freelance reporter in July 2006 and boy did it feel good. I'm a local girl~ born and raised in NE DC's Riggs Park. I still remember when FOX 5's Morning Show first came on the air! I'm a proud DCPS graduate (Duke Ellington School of the Arts, class of 1995.) If my face looks at all familiar it may be because I hosted a show in high school that aired on DCPS channel 28 called "Excellence By Choice" for 2 years. Anywhoo~ I graduated from the University of North Carolina Charlotte in 1998, and have been working ever since to get home to DC to cover news in my hometown! My career has taken me to some interesting cities. I covered my share of hurricanes while working as a reporter at WSAV in Savannah, GA, fell in love with Alabama as an an anchor/reporter at WAAY in Huntsville, and discovered the magic of blues and bbq (and met my husband) as a reporter/fill-in anchor at FOX O&O WHBQ in Memphis, TN. I have 2 adorable sons Andrew Michael(2) and Brian Thomas(11mos) and my step-daughter Caitlyn(11) who splits her time between here and Memphis. I love spending time with family and enjoying my fair city! I hope you enjoy my blog as I attempt to share my perspective.
