Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome back to Monday. It is a

3
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 2: beautiful start to the day. We've got a gorgeous sunrise

4
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 2: here in the city, clear skies, but just fourteen degrees.

5
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 2: The news at six o'clock is brought to us by

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 2: your new England Toyota Dealer, your hybrid all wheel drive headquarters.

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 2: Thanks for being with us live on WBZ news Radio

8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: or on the go with the iHeartRadio app. I'm Jeff

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 2: Brown and this pretty much says it all. I'm shine today,

10
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 2: but very cold with a high have only twenty eight

11
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 2: That is WBZ Aky weather meteorologist Heather's are much milder

12
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: air moving into the picture later this week. US officials

13
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 2: say this weekend's attack on Iran has hit one thousand targets.

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: The Pentagon says three US service members are dead, several

15
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 2: more seriously wounded. President Trump says tells the nation it

16
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,639
Speaker 2: is likely that more US casualties will come and new

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: this more. N official say several US military aircraft have

18
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 2: crashed in Kuwaits, but all service members have survived. The

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 2: Red Crescent reports more than five hundred have been killed

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: in the United States and Israeli airstrikes beginning this weekend.

21
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: Despite new offers to negotiate, top Iranian officials say the

22
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: United States will not be able to talk its way

23
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: out of this. The US and Israel continue to carry

24
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: out joint strikes in Iran and Operation Eric Fury Epic Fury,

25
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: and what President Trump expects will be at least a

26
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 2: month long military operation. Meantime, in New Hampshire, couple trying

27
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: to get out of the crossfire instead finds themselves stuck

28
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: in the middle.

29
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 3: The attack on Iran by the US and Israel that

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 3: took out the country supreme leader shut down airspace in

31
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: the Midi, stranding hundreds of thousands of travelers, including Americans.

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: Christy Elmer and her husband who got stuck in Dubai.

33
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 4: You hear a lot of explosions at times. You know,

34
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 4: there's hundreds of them, and so we only hear them.

35
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 4: We sort of still stay near the windows.

36
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: Therefore, New Hampshire, the one and only hotel where she's staying,

37
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 3: has set up a contingency plan in case things get

38
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 3: really bad.

39
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: It's unsettling. We're not used to hearing bombs. I hate

40
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 4: her missile.

41
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 3: The Fairmount Hotel right near them took a retaliatory hit

42
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: by Iran, as did several other Gulf states and Mid

43
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: East countries, which shut down airports and airspace. Meanwhile, Elmer

44
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 3: says she's on standby for whenever airspace reopens.

45
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: I'm Julie Walker.

46
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: And for the first time in two weeks, many school

47
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: districts south of Boston are back in class this morning

48
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: for teachers and students alike, which brings an end to

49
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: countless days of stress for many families. Now the focus

50
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 2: centers on summer vacation, as in when will it begin.

51
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: Many districts have already used the five winter snow days

52
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: that are automatically built into the school calendar, and then some,

53
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 2: and there's still a couple more weeks of winter to go.

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 2: No serious discussions yet about maybe impacting April vacation. Massachusetts

55
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 2: law does require one hundred and eighty school days per

56
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: academic year. Blasted cold coming into the region yesterday, and

57
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: it certainly is with us this morning. Despite gorgeous looking

58
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: colors in the sky, it's fourteen degrees here in Boston,

59
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: feels like it's just three degrees above zero and not

60
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: much warmer today. In fact, we're gonna be hard pressed

61
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: to make it two thirty degrees, so the high temperature

62
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: in Boston expected to be mid to upper twenties today.

63
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: Clear and continued cold overnight tonight, but milder air is

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: moving in later on this week. We'll see temps getting

65
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 2: close to forty tomorrow and well into the forties on Wednesday,

66
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: and still rather mild as we wrap up the work

67
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: week on Thursday and Friday as well. Right now, it's

68
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: anything but clear but cold here in Boston, so we

69
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: get started on this Monday morning. It's fourteen degrees here

70
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: in the city. Six oh five. Another day in court

71
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: for a local woman in the middle of a very

72
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: complicated case.

73
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 5: Lindsay Clancy will appear at Plymouth Superior Court today, accused

74
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 5: of killing her three young children three years ago in Duxbury.

75
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 5: Her attorney says she was in the midst of a

76
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 5: postpartum depression spiral during that time period. Clancy's attorneys want

77
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 5: two phases for her trial, which is slated for this summer.

78
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 5: One the verdict, then two whether or not reason of

79
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 5: insanity applies. Prosecutors allege Clancy planned out the attack. Wall

80
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 5: Clantsy's attorneys argue she was over medicated and not receiving

81
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 5: the proper treatment. Jim McKay WBZ Boston's news radio fire.

82
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 2: Meets ice in a Lakeville parking lot. Firefighters who say

83
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 2: two heavy duty snowplows have been ruined by the blaze

84
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 2: found burning in a business parking lot. Nearby vehicles also damage.

85
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 2: The two plows had been working overtime of course last week,

86
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: putting in more than one hundred hours of snow removal time,

87
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 2: but official say it appears they'd both been sitting idle

88
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 2: for the past twenty four hours or so before the fire.

89
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 2: No word on what caused the blaze, but an investigation

90
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 2: is now underway. Things that go bump in the night

91
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 2: are about to ruin your day.

92
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: There's the cold, and there's the snow, and then inevitably

93
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: there's pothole.

94
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: You tried to avoid it.

95
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 5: Now when you avoid a pothole, you go to another one.

96
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: Like skiing down the side of a slalom run, or

97
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: as he explains it.

98
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 6: It's like a minefield. No matter where you go, you're

99
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 6: hitting them boom boom.

100
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: Only these are quite often more costly than a day

101
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: on the slopes.

102
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 4: I had a page, twelve hundred dollars.

103
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 5: I blew a sidewall.

104
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: How much did that cost?

105
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:14,559
Speaker 2: Oh?

106
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 6: Both?

107
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 2: Both?

108
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 6: Maybe five hundred dollars.

109
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: No joke. But then there doesn't seem much of a

110
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: solution as the snow keeps coming down and municipalities scrambled

111
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: to treat roads and keep them clear.

112
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 6: They've done so much construction. Then when the plows come,

113
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 6: they just dig it all up. You know, I understand

114
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 6: they're busy, but they're not paying for Yacata be fixed.

Speaker 2: Chris Vama, WBZ, Boston's news radio. It turns out size
