8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 2: it looks like this wind and rain is going to

9
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: be hanging on for just a little bit longer. This morning.

10
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 2: Day's going to turn out to be a blustery and

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:40,639
Speaker 2: colder day, but we will see a.

12
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: Return to some sunshine, and we'll see some sun over

13
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: the next couple of days, and it.

14
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: Really is going to be the tale of a different

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: morning and afternoon from meteorologists Brian Thompson on that forecast.

16
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: But meantime, right now, these howling winds have been rolling

17
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 2: through New England over night, and we're already getting reports

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: of some damages and more importantly, the power outages. Some

19
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: sixty four thousand customers across Massachusetts in the dark. This morning.

20
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: According to Memo, it's blowing on the south shore, which

21
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: isn't anything new, but gus like these.

22
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: It only happens a few times a year.

23
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 4: Yet it hasn't happened in a while.

24
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: I feel like, even of the blizzard and stuff, I

25
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 3: feel like it wasn't as.

26
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: Bad as this enough to make this local wonder about

27
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: his home.

28
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 3: I'm in a situation.

29
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 2: I think one time, I think the house actually moved.

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: Sound like he was fortunate not to lose power, But

31
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: tens of thousands haven't been as lucky do.

32
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 4: We do lose power a lot, so hopefully we'll get

33
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 4: it on soon.

34
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 3: Sinituent always seems to lose it, always lose it, always losing.

35
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: Chris Bouman WBZ, Boston's news radio, and that high wind

36
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: morning does remain in an effect for parts of north

37
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: and particularly south of Boston. It's a quick shift as

38
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: those ones will start to die down, and again we're

39
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: gonna be feeling a whole lot cooler this afternoon. We're

40
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: gonna be on a ten to fifteen degree temperature swing. Meantime,

41
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: do you want to get away? Eas year said been done?

Speaker 3: Thousands of flights have been canceled across the country over

46
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,399
Speaker 3: the past few days, and Monday was a rough one

47
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: over at Logan Airport. Looks like another tough start this morning.

48
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 3: Before daybreak. We have nearly one hundred delays in cancelations

49
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 3: with stormy weather plus the ongoing ripple effects of the

50
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,920

Speaker 2: in Boston, host of great events all day long. Taking

65
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: a look at this forecast, we are all over the

66
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: place today here. We are starting off cloudy, rainy, and

67
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: also dealing with a whole lot of power outages. Just

68
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 2: hearing from our listeners in Greater Boston and really all

69

Speaker 2: over the place reporting out traffic lights, some debris scattered

70
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 2: all over the place, and we are still dealing with

71
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 2: some significant power outages. Sixty four thousand customers without power

72
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: right now all across Massachusetts. Looks like different parts of

73
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: the Cell Shore and North Shore probably hit the hardest here,

74
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 2: especially along the coast. Real windy here this morning, and

75
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 2: we do have that high wind watch that'll remain here

76
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: south of town now for this afternoon. We are going

77
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 2: to actually be clearing out, the winds are going to

78
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: die down, and we will also start to really feel

79
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: that cooler air coming through. We're expecting a high of

80
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: just forty five today, so we're actually going to be

81
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,080

82
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,520

00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: like an ice warm day, back into the fifties at

86
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 2: the moment, fifty four right now with some clouds and

00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: We have people wanting to negotiate, we have no idea

90
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: who they are. Well, President Donald Trump saying talks with

91
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: Iran are tough because they've been hit so hard. But

92
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 2: the President is criticizing American allies who so far declined

93
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: his request to send warships to protect oil tankers in

94
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: the straight up Horror Moves.

95
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 5: The virtual shutdown of the Straits of Horror Moves has

96
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 5: sent gas prices in the US surging up seventy nine

97
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 5: cents from a month ago, and for only the second

98
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,239
Speaker 5: time ever, diesel prices now topping five dollars per gallon,

99
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 5: which will raise transportation costs for all sorts of consumer products,

100
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 5: including groceries.

101
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:28,080

00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 2: We celebrated every March and we look forward to it,

104
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,719

105
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: in Boston where the Irish spirit is alive in Welfed.

00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: There is no shortage of places to get a pint

107
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: of guinness and an Irish meal here in Boston. Joseph O'Connor,

108
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: who is eighty percent Irish, knows a thing or two

109
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: about what to look for.

110
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 4: True Irish breakfast is black sauce, blood sausage. You got

111
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 4: to get the Frida eggs. You got to get some

112
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 4: English muffins, to get the Berry's tea. The Berry's tea

113
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 4: is essential. You can't be doing no lipt in. That's

114
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: the issue with people out here, maybe drinking the lipt in,

115
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 4: maybe drinking that week tea. You need the berries.

116
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: We're here at South Street Diner, which is decked out
