This is a familiar site, as 62 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 2: only a few weeks ago, heavy snow came and bitter 63 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: cold temperatures led to many fair gates needing to be 64 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: worked on this time. Wind is said to be the 65 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 2: reason for several gates being down, A big surprise for 66 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 2: Nate from Summerville. 67 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: I'm glad they are giving this in place like previously 68 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 3: it was. If you wanted to get on one of 69 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: the trains and you weren't buying a ticket, you could 70 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 3: so you could freeload on the system. I do appreciate 71 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 3: their making an effort to do it, but. 72 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. Hopefully they figure it out now. 73 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 2: There is more freezing, not so friendly weather in the forecast, 74 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: so writers will be finding out very soon if that 75 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 2: too will impact their fair gate experience. At South Station, 76 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: James Rojas WBZ Boston's. 77 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: News radios, it's not one, but two storm systems headed 78 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: our way, and I think I speak for a lot 79 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: of us and saying we are so done with winter 80 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: at this point in time. In fact, the first day 81 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: of spring is four weeks from today. In the meantime, though, 82 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: we'll deal with some in clement weather moving in later 83 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: this afternoon. It might start likely as rain and just 84 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: a messy mix, but we'll quickly turn over to snow 85 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: overnight tonight, widespread one to three inches of accumulation here 86 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: in Greater Boston. The further north and west of the 87 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: city we go, the deeper the totals will be as 88 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: we begin the weekends. Now, we continue tomorrow with cloudy 89 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: and some leftover floorriess conditions. Tomorrow pretty much the same 90 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: all day long with highs and the thirties. Sunday continued cloudy. 91 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: We're watching another system that's expected to arrive in the 92 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: area on Sunday night. Now, the track of this system 93 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: could take many different paths, so we split the difference 94 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: now between the extreme path that shows it moving way 95 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: out to sea and another path that shows a direct hit. 96 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: So in the meantime, our meteorologists are calling for two 97 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: to four inches of widespread accumulation by Monday morning. Right 98 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,119 Speaker 1: now in Boston, nothing doing partly cloudy skies and thirty 99 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: degrees here in the city.

I mean, I don't understand 105 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 4: the purpose of it.
