It 45 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 6: just makes us helpless. 46 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 7: It's my first minment, right, It's everybody's first menent right 47 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 7: to be out here in practice will be preached, and 48 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 7: Minneapolis does that better than almost anybody else probably in 49 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 7: the country. 50 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 2: And more on this shooting from ABC's Johnny Fernandez. 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 4: At least say the thirty seven year old was licensed 52 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 4: to carry a concealed weapon. DHS Secretary Christy Nome called 53 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 4: the shooting a tragic situation. 54 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 6: The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed 55 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 6: suspect reacted violently, fearing for his life and for the 56 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 6: lives of his fellow officers around him. An agent fired defensive. 57 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 4: Shots, but city officials question that account. Johnny Fernandez, ABC 58 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 4: News New York. 59 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 2: Don't playoff football for Patriot Nation Today three o'clock kickoff 60 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 2: AFC title game the Pats and Broncos in Denver.

They will kick at six thirty. 63 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: Winners of both games advanced to Super Bowl sixty in 64 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: two weeks in San Francisco. If we are joined by 65 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 2: Matt Rindy with hack you Weather. So, Matt, if you 66 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: haven't gone out yet to get whatever you need at 67 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: the store, you have at least the morning hours to 68 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: do that. 69 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think. So we're still going to see some 70 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 5: still getting underway ten eleven o'clock. It's going to be 71 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 5: on the lighter side here at the start, but it 72 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 5: will pick up in intensity during the afternoon hour. So 73 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 5: if you have any final plans to get your snacks 74 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 5: for the game, do it in the morning, please, and 75 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 5: then look enjoy the game if you can from a 76 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 5: safe spot where you don't need to leave, because it 77 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 5: is going to be a cup of intensity again. Starting 78 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 5: around three o'clock, we'll look for rates to move to 79 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 5: one to two inches per hour and that will continue 80 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 5: up until eleven o'clock. Again, if you do some math, 81 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 5: that's three to six inches within just a three hour period. 82 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 5: So if you're out and about during that time, you 83 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 5: could see markedly different road conditions from the point at 84 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 5: the start of the game to the point of the 85 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 5: end of the game. So again it is going to 86 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 5: be a difficult travel, looking for a total of one 87 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 5: to two feet, most of which will fall by early 88 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 5: Monday morning. We'll still see some snow throughout the day Monday, 89 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 5: but a much lighter should allow the cleanup cruise to 90 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 5: catch up a little bit. But again it is going 91 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 5: to be difficult travel through the day Monday. Be ready 92 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 5: for that. Champers only of the twenties as we move 93 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 5: up to twenty five to day, and then staying in 94 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 5: the twenties tonight, even Tuesday, Wednesday, with the return of sunshine, 95 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 5: will have highs of twenty three each of those days, 96 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 5: and then staying in the twenties Thursday and Friday. I'm 97 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 5: achi with a media rolegist, Matt Ridy WBZ boston' zons. 98 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, thanks Matt. Right now in Boston seven degrees. 99 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: The winds out of the northwest about ten miles per 100 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 2: hour makes it feel like minus eight at six oh five. 101 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: So if you want to look at the bright side 102 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: of an impending snowstorm, yeah, that's the bright side. Then 103 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 2: there is this advice on carbo loading. 104 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 8: Shoveling in a lot of snow day snacks before you 105 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 8: shovel the driveway, you'll likely work off those calories fast. 106 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 8: According to health experts, on average, you can burn about 107 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 8: two hundred calories in thirty minutes getting it cleared scraping 108 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 8: ice off your car. That's about fifty calories every fifteen 109 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,679 Speaker 8: minutes of work. And if you're playing in the snow, 110 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 8: you can burn about two hundred thousand an hour building 111 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 8: a snowman or having a snowball fight, and sledding is 112 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 8: a good cardio workout too. You can burn about four 113 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 8: hundred and fifty calories in one hour walking back up 114 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 8: that hill. Stacy Lynn, CBS News. 115 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: The MBTA is announcing service change is ahead of the 116 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: approaching storm. All commuter rail lines will follow a reduced 117 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: storm schedule tomorrow that means about a third of normal 118 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: weekday service will be available.

The Charlestown Ferry will operate 121 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: every half hour. The Mattapan trolley is expected to be 122 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 2: replaced with shuttle busses tomorrow and there will be normal service, 123 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 2: although it will likely be delayed because of the weather 124 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: for the ride all day tomorrow well if you heard 125 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: a loud bang and your car got damaged, well what happened? 126 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 2: It could be an exploding tree. 127 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 7: So we asked Michigan DNR forester Lawrence Law to explain 128 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 7: what happens when a tree explodes. 129 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: Frees have sap, and that's where we gore maple served 130 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,239 Speaker 1: from all that wonderful stuff. And sometimes when these temperatures drop, 131 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: that sap freezes, it has a bunch of water, it 132 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: expands and the pressure inside the tree builds up and 133 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: you kind of hear a huge. 134 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 7: Crack and it's not inherently dangerous, but it's still best 135 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 7: not to hang around under those icy branches. Ryan Ranker 136 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 7: for CBS News Detroit. 137 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 2: You are now in the loop or news updates throughout 138 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 2: the day.
