to your health at 5:12 on this friday morning. if you just woke up with a headache, listen to this. according to the national headaches foundation, you have the condition if you get persistent headaches more than 15 days a month for at least three months. so if you fall into that

category, susan hendricks has good news for you. >> reporter: if you or someone you know suffer from chronic headaches, you're not alone. according to the national headache foundation, up to 5% of the population get persistent headaches on a daily or almost daily basis. chronic daily headaches can disable their victims including children. now, a new study released by the journal neurology says there's hope for children with the condition. taiwanese researchers say for some it may just be a phase. scientists studied 122 middle school students with recurring head pain. the researchers found 60% of the sample outgrew chronic headaches within a year. 75% were rid of the condition after two years and 88% no longer suffered chronic headaches after eight years. that's not to say they were headache free. 75% of them still had

occasional migraines or likely migraines. the key conclusion is encouraging. over time, most of the children t better. for today's health minute, i'm susan hendricks. listen, if you work for the state, you want to know every move the governor is making with his eraser. the governor is talking cuts. administration officials already found about half of the cuts, and the governor hopes to identify the rest after meeting with staffers. so the governor's not talking specifics, but he said the reductions will be painful. that message drew the reaction from union leaders. >> we don't agree with furloughs. we don't think they're the long-term answer to the solution. they're a band aid measure. >> i am here today to ask that governor o'mally commit to making all state youth centers, state hospitals, and all understaffed and overwhelmed state facilities his top

priority as he makes his budget decision. >> the board of public works is scheduled to take up the cuts at its meeting next wednesday. in hartford county, you're getting a break. david craig signed the homestead credit percentage bill into law. it will ultimately provide property tax relief for thousands of property owners. the bill which was introduced in may passed the council by unanimous vote earlier this week. >> i think it shows good cooperation between the administration and county council and the citizens to make a real effective move to lower taxes during tough economic times. >> let's read the small print on this homestead tax credit. limits the amount of your home's value that you pay taxes on. a year ago, the county dropped it from a maximum increase of 10% each year to 9. now it will drop to just 5% two years from now. it's estimated that this cut's gonna save homeowners hundreds

of millions of dollars over the next decade. now life is coming to the annapolis market house. three new tenants are moving into the center on a temporary basis now. workers were busy putting the final touches on a restaurant, flower shop, art dealer on the historic market house. the city regained control of the market two months ago after buying out a private firm that ran the market for several years. during that time, all but two of the tenants moved out. the city wants to turn the market house into more of a meeting place. >> and the people who are coming in have to be up again, and the reason for that is we have to redesign the inside. so it is not a fast food court. >> she says they will take applications for new tenant and will give current tenants every chance to stay. the owner of the popular

deli atman's is hoping to build a restaurant right next to its current one. mark, tell us. >> double our seating area. the reason we're trying to do that is one, for our basic customer base that needs more room in there. we sit about 40 now, but also, we'd like to get bus and tours that come to the city that want to really see a part of the city besides little italy or the inner harbor and go to a place where there's some history. >> mark tells us he plans to keep the old building and renovate to use for retail housing or some other purpose. we're told the new building could be up by late next year if the plan is approved. it's 5:17 and we are going through the hottest part of the year, the third and fourth week of july. yesterday actually followed suit. the hottest day of the year so far, 94 in baltimore. new york city for the first time the entire year, 85

degrees. so it's been a relatively cool summer, but we had a taste of summer yesterday. in fact, that 85 is just about normal for them. for us this is what we expect on the 17th of july. 66 in the morning, 88 in the afternoon. 58 the low set in 1987. this happens a cup of times on the calendar. one year separating the record high and record low. talk about that for a flip of fortune. 101 set back in 1988, just one year after the record was set. currently, we're sitting at 73 degrees. definitely warm and muggy across the region. it doesn't look like much going on, but besides mixed clouds across the sky, we're looking at more showers across the ohio valley. that's a cold front that will act on the heat and humidity. that will get active as we head through this afternoon. we have showers rolling in through 2:00 or 2:30. you have the potential of turning severe with large hail and gusty winds, heavy

downpours across the mountains with the frontal boundaries. we should try to dry it out with the afternoon clouds. today, though, two degree guarantee with developing storms that could get severe, especially as we go through tonight. kim? good morning, justin. as we check around the 95 southbound area as you travel out of hartford county, things are running smoothly as you approach the beltway split. falls road does remain closed in both directions because of a downed tree in the area. we're also still working the crash in the city at druid park lake road at madison avenue. looking at the beltway, you see things are running smoothly on both loops of the beltway awz make your way to the east side as well. no problems to tell you about. jamie, back to you. for many teenagers, they won't be up for what, another eight hours? for them it's all about relaxing, but for one teen, summer break is her cue to start working for others.
