Speaker 2: Residents have been worn to protect themselves against toxic fumes

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 2: and toxic rain. Many reportedly woke up with pain in

00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: their throats and eyes burning and along the other front

17
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 2: line in this war. In Lebanon, visuals offensive against Hezbollah

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,400

19
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,720

25
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: they fall in overtime to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Celtics beat

26
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: up on the Cavaliers in Cleveland, and after five years

27
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,759

28
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 3: The Eagles are showing men's basketball coach Earl Grant the

29
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,959

31
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,480

Speaker 3: to make the NCAA March Madness Tournament during any of

33
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,960

00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 3: been to the Dance in seventeen years. Kyle Bray WBZ

Speaker 1: make their way into the field of sixty eight, and

38
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: they're doing it in dramatic fashion. Here we go. WBC's

39
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: Drew Mholland joins us now with the update. Good morning, Andrew,

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Morning Jeffrey.

41
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 3: This is exciting.

42
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 4: The march madness kicking into full gear already. Can we

43
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 4: give it up for the Warriors of North and over Merrimack.

44
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: There we go meron Mack.

45
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 4: With a steal at the buzzer to secure a win

46
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 4: over Maris. They might be one of these stronger teams

47
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 4: in Massachusetts here if you've watched them all year. They

48
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 4: get Siena tomorrow night for a shot at the big tourney.

49
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: And then there's this the Terriers of Boston University down

50
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 4: two in the final seconds.

51
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 5: But not out.

52
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 4: How about that they get Lee High Wednesday night for chance.

53
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: A lot of doctors say this is a popular time

54
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 1: for heart attacks and strokes because of the time change,

55
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: but it might be because of college basketball. If they

56
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: ever looked, might actually happen. I don't know there is

57
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: a correlation. This is the one we've been waiting for.

58
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 6: It.

59
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: It's been since Thanksgiving that we've seen temperature in the sixties,

60
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: and we're going to get there today. We're already well

61
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: on our way under clear skies. It is forty four degrees.

62
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: We're going to see high temperatures in the lower sixties

63
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: right on the waterfront, but upper sixties in inland locations,

64
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: as is customary this time of year. On the Capean Islands,

65
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: it's going to be tough to warm optempts will only

66
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: be in the fifties, but still a beautiful day with

67
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: plenty of sunshine from start to finish. And if you

68
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: like today, we're going to do it again tomorrow, even warmer. Tomorrow,

69
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: we'll make a run at Boston's record of seventy one degrees.

70
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like we're going to get there, but

71
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: we'll get close, and it'll feel so great too. With

72
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: high temperatures at least in the mid to upper sixties.

73
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: This is going to be a relatively mild week, making

74
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: up for some lost time, certainly, but clouds around the increase.

75
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: On Wednesday, highs approach sixty, and then Thursday we do

76
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: have a chance for a few showers. We start warm

77
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: early and then cool off later in the day and

78
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: rain could actually turn to some snowflakes. Just to remind

79
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: us that winter has a little something left in the tank.

80
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,600

81
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: here in the city six I have this Monday morning

82
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: as yes, winter is starting to elbow in on Springs.

83
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 7: Despite the relative warm up coming our way, some towns

84
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 7: on the Salt Shore have decided to push back Saint

85
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,600

89
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 7: parades almost an entire month till April twelfth.

90
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 9: It kind of makes sense.

91
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 10: It'll be warmer rope, so that might be a better thing,

92
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 10: you know, But it is nice to have it right

93
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 10: around Saint Patrick's Day.

94
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,839
