to the people of paris. they would like to know if a man who is out there and wants to kill french citizens by the hundreds has been neutralized, but so far the police won't say. at least not yet. reporting live from paris, jim dolan, eyewitness news. >> thank you, jim. arguments from leaders in our area tonight about the u.s. accepting syrian refugees in light of the attacks in paris. on one side new jersey governor chris christie during an interview on cnn defended the position his state should not participate in programs to take in refugees. on the other side new york mayor de blasio refusing to take in refugees he says is inhumane. >> this imagine, a body washed ashore, gripped the world literally. governor cristie said he did

for small children to be brought in. is this what he wants to see happen to people, children? we don't accept that here in new york city. >> mayor de blasio is comfortable with refugees settling here in the u.s. because he says the federal government has a very careful vetting process. meanwhile isis is claiming responsibility for a small bomb weighing a little more than two pounds hidden in a soda can that brought down a russian airline last month. abc news contain this had image showing the soda can and a blasting cap and electric initiator. eyewitness news jim hoffer? the newsroom with more. jim? >> in the image of the soda can the message from isis is clear, all it takes is an aluminum can and a few ounces of explosives to bring down the plane of a major power. it could just be isis propaganda or real proof that a crude bomb made out of a soda

down a russian-filled airline, the picture published in the extremist group's magazine. >> it doesn't take a great deal of explosive material. >> reporter: for the aviation attorney a picture of the simple soda bomb can takes him back to the 1988 explosion of pan am 103 over scotland where terrorist hid explosive in a small can a seth player, reaching the bombing for the families of those killed. those responsible back then would never have shown pictures of the bomb. isis is different. >> this reinforces the point they can go to war against russia, france, the united states, with really a handful of people and they can do enormous damage. >> reporter: this picture is likely to send chills down the spine of tsa security officials

remainder of the night. in new jersey they are still mild and bumping up a little bit. the first areas of drizzle may sneak into the western suburbs first in places like sparta to orange county, and the hudson valley, then make its way to the coast by morning. so, off and on light rain or drizzle for the morning commute. super might. go with a light rain jacket and don't dress too heavy. it will get hot. temperatures will be in the low and mid 60s and it will be balmy and muggy out. then the rain picks up with the afternoon and evening commute. travel will be slow in the evening hours with heavy pockets of rain. watch the future-cast here, a nice job indicating the drizzle in the northwest suburbs later on tonight. a little more widespread by morning, occasional sprinkles and drizzle. you will need the umbrella and more so through the afternoon as the rain gets steadier from 3:00 on through tomorrow night with heavier pockets of

we are in the 60s. after the heaviest rain shifts east during the evening hours and the radar gets better there may be one more surge of rainfall if the front stalls to the east. that would enhance some of the rainfall amounts over connecticut and long island. i am not sure that will happen just yet but the computer model plane connecticut and long island. we will have to see if that message continues through the evening hours. an inch is a good forecast for the area but there may be heavier amounts east of the city. tomorrow is a soaker. tomorrow it will be drying out very late at night. the cold and wind will be over the great lakes on saturday. sunday an early shower again and gusty winds. i bumped up the temp a little bit because is coldest air is delayed sunday night and monday. 40s sunday, monday and maybe tuesday, as well. might get above 50 that day. get away wednesday 52 degrees,
