Okay, nice cold 73 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 1: in Boston this morning, and many of us find that 74 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: we have more snow to get off the driveway and 75 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: the backstairs again this morning. This long lingering snowstorm finally 76 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: exited late last night. We've got clear skies this morning. 77 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: A couple of inches of snow likely in your driveway, 78 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: especially north of Boston this morning. But other than that, 79 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: it is so it's type of snow that you can 80 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: get rid of with a leaf blower. It's that light, 81 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: but it's still it's there, right. So temperatures today not 82 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: really much higher than the low twenties. In fact, this 83 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: is going to be quite a spell of cold weather 84 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: coming up. So whatever is on the ground in going 85 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: anywhere for quite some time, and we're looking at the 86 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: possibility of a major winter storm coming at US this weekend. 87 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: This one would be more of a bigger mess, considering 88 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: it's a nor'easter with higher temperatures and heavier snow. Will 89 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: be watching and waiting.
