Speaker 2: of tonight. At is WBZ Actuly weather meteorologist Joe Lundberg

Speaker 2: a widespread two to four inches possible. Wbz's Drew Mulholland,

11
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 2: So what does that mean? Like a foot I know

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 2: you are sick of this, as well as many of

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: the rest of us too. Good morning, in morning, Jeffrey.

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 3: Goods, have you back? Did you know we've had nineteen

15
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 3: straight days below forty degrees?

16
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: January twenty third was the last day above.

17
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: I didn't, but go ahead, remind me not a.

18
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: Record, but we might get to forty in the next

19
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: couple of days.

20
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 3: You know, I had friends who did one of those

21
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: sauna plund cold plunge things you jump in the ocean

22
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 3: and then you go in the Saana sort of deals. Yeah,

23
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: they could not jump in the ocean because the people

24
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: that run the thing said, it's a liability. That's exactly correct.

25
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: That is exactly that's the deal these days. It has

26
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 3: just been miserable, all right. So hopefully the end is near.

27
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 3: As far as a warm up might be concerned, we'll

28
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 3: get to that in just a few minutes. Meantime, the

29
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 3: heat is still out at UMass Memorial Medical Center in Marlborough.

30
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 3: Dozens of patients are forced to relocate after the boiler

31
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 3: system flooded out Sunday night. The heat cut off to

32
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: the entire building. A code black issued, blocking any ambulances

33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,839
Speaker 3: from arriving. The cause of the valve break is still

34
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 3: under investigation. Meantime, hundreds of students forced out of their

35
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 3: dorms at UMass Boston after a sprinkler pipe bursts. The

36
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 3: students moved to alternate housing. Another impassioned plea of help

37
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 3: and hope from NBC Today Show hosts of Vannah Guthrie

38
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: as the search for her missing eighty four year old

39
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 3: mother begins its second week same way. The first week

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 3: ended with no new clues and no new suspects or

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 3: any suspects in her disappearance. The FBI says it has

42
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: no knowledge that the Guthrie family has been in direct

43
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: contact with the kidnappers, but Savannah Guthrie asks the public

44
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 3: to keep its eyes and ears open cross country for

45
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: anything that doesn't feel right. Meantime, Hoda Cootbee has returned

46
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: to today to fill in for Guthrie during her absence.

47
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,399
Speaker 3: LA County releases a cause of death for beloved Hollywood

48
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 3: actress Catherine O'Hara. Official say O'Hara died from a pulmonary

49
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 3: embolism whose contributing cause was cancer. A seventy one year

50
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: old died within hours of arrival at a Santa Monica

51
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 3: hospital on January thirtieth. Celtics are off until tomorrow they

52
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 3: host the Bulls of the Garden. Celtic star Jason Tatum

53
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 3: starts practicing with the minor league team in Maine as

54
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 3: he continues to recover from a rupture to achilles tendon

55
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 3: and out from the shadow of Patriots Football. Red Sox

56
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 3: pitchers and catchers officially report to Fort Myers, Florida today.

57
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: They started Red Sox spring training. No absolutely it's exciting.

58
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 4: They signed a couple of players, so should be interested.

59
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 2: Though this local fan is less interested in bats and

60
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 2: balls than sunshine and short sleeves.

61
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: This is brutal.

62
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: Can't wait, Give me to April as fast as you can, right,

63
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: Chris Fauma WBZ, Boston's News Radio. Sunny in seventy five

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: and fort myers today. By the way, this morning, under

65
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: clear skies, it is twenty one degrees, the winds are

66
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 2: relatively calm. This is actually a little bit warmer today's

67
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: temperature at this time of the morning that it was

68
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 2: this time yesterday. Unfortunately, we're only get to get to

69
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: around freezing today, and also unfortunately any sunshine will give

70
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 2: way to building clouds. We are looking at another winter

71
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: storm headed our way. It'll start late this afternoon and

72
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 2: continue into the early evening hours. It is a relatively

73
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 2: quick hitting storm with a widespread two to four inches

74
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: of new snow possible out of this, and then after

75
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 2: that cloudy and lingering snow over night Tonight tomorrow looks

76
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: like we could see temperatures getting very close to forty

77
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 2: degrees we as Drew had mentioned, we have not seen

78
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: forty degrees in about nineteen days. Last time we did

79
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: was January twenty third, but it looks like we have

80
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 2: an outside shot of getting there again sometime this week,

81
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 2: and that sometime would be tomorrow. Fingers crossed for that.

82
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: Right now, it's twenty one and clear skies in Boston

83
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: this Tuesday morning, six oh six, and it's music to

84
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: my ears. Coffee may be better for our brains than

85
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 2: we once thought.

86
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: Caffeinated tea and coffee have been found to reduce the

87
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: risk of dementia and slow down cognitive decline. That's good

88
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: news for Kayley, visiting Boston from Virginia.

89
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 5: I usually go through periods of drinking tea, periods of

90
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 5: drinking coffee, probably somewhere between like one to three cups

91
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 5: a day, depending on the desperation, probably leaning on coffee

92
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 5: side a little bit more than tea.

93
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: Mass General Brigham says new research is suggesting two to

94
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: three cups of coffee a day is the sweet spot.

95
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: One to two cups for tea.

96
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: I fluctuate between coffee and tea, trying to lay off

97
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: the cream and the sugar and just drink a block

98
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: and appreciate the coffee for what it is.

99
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: Researchers say both coffee and tea contain bioactive ingredients which

100
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: appear to reduce inflammation and cellular damage, and Dewey Square

Speaker 1: James Roha WBZ, Boston's News radio.

102
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: College is hard, and moving to the head of the

103
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: class at Harvard might be getting harder.

104
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 6: It's a push in the name of academic rigor, and

105
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 6: it's getting a lot of push back from students. A

106
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 6: proposal from Harvard's Office of Undergraduate Education would put a

107
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 6: cap on how many a's students can get at twenty

108
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 6: percent of a class, with professors able to hand out

109
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 6: a few more. The school paper The Crimson obtained the proposal,

110
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 6: which would need to go to a full faculty vote.

111
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 6: It comes months after a dean's report found more than

112
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 6: sixty percent of undergraduate grades at Harvard were a's and

113
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 6: deemed that damaging to the university's academic culture. Several students

114
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 6: tell the paper they think the changes would hurt the

115
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 6: culture and question why faculties surprised that some of the

116
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 6: top students in the country are getting a's. Most professors

117
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 6: do already have caps in place. If these stricter limits

118
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 6: are approved, they would take effect this fall. Madison Rogers WBZ,

Speaker 2: Looking for love online might come with a big salary.

121
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 5: It's weird.

122
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 4: A new survey suggests more and more people are using

123
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 4: dating apps like Hinge and Tender to find a new job.

124
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 4: The findings from resume builders say this isn't just a

125
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 4: gen Z thing. All sorts of age brackets are ditching

126
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 4: the job board and fair to find that next big break.

127
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 4: But are we blurring the lines between professional and personal?

128
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 5: What do you think ethically?

129
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 1: Why would it be crossing the line.

130
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 4: As long as they make their intentions clear.

131
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

132
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 5: I don't see a problem.

133
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: Good for them, Like, if they're doing that as a

134
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: way to find an occupation, then let them do it.

135
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 1: There's not a problem.

Speaker 4: He's old school and thinks there's a one stop shop

137
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 4: to consider for your job or love desperation, which just

138
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 4: to lete the dating apps and go to bars.

139
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 5: There's obviously several ways you can do that, but if

140
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 5: you're going to put it in your dating app, then

141
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,000
