>> it's going to get a little bumpy as we head through this weekend. the winds not as strong as it's been. the one time it canceled us for weather back in '96 with winds at 40 miles per hour. it will be certainly chilly and a little bumpy out on that dirty water. take a look at what's going on in the main weather headlines. we'll monitor changes headed our way for the weekend. we've got the colder air continuing to spill in, which means the end of the growing season. it's been a while for most areas. we've got the best out of our gardens that we could. the wide killing freeze will start on sunday morning, but then the coldest will be on monday morning when everyone's back into the 20s. we will start to moderate next week. the freeze watch is out for saturday night into sunday morning. it's that first really cold night with temperatures 26 to 32 with the areas in blue. the growing season has been deemed over in those spots.

>> hey hey, ho ho, donald trump has got to go! >> reporter: a predebate standoff in tyngsboro between donald trump supporters here for the appearance of their candidate and anti-trump protesters here to spread their own message. >> donald itemp can't silence women and we do not appreciate his anti-women positions. >> reporter: he says he cherishes women. >> i don't want to be cherished in that way. i'd rather be respected. >> reporter: they are outnumbered tonight by a huge turnout of trump backers. people who say they are behind a candidate who says what he thinks and leads the gop polls right now. >> i think everything that he's telling us is the truth. he's not a politician. he's going to do the right thing. >> i like that he's half democrat. i like that he's half republican. that puts him right in the middle of the road. middle of the country.

i think he will create jobs. he will close up our borders. >> reporter: that's rhetoric and the political red meat that this crowd has showed up hoping to hear from donald trump. it's no accident that he has selected tyngsboro. he's on friendly ground. the past two presidential general elections, tyngsboro has bucked the national and massachusetts trend, voting on both occasions as the town for the republican candidate. live in tyngsboro, jim smith, wbz news. david? >> it's going to be a lively night there. trump's visit comes as conflict around the world is pushing foreign affairs into the spotlight. tonight, keller at large takes a closer look at the problems that that poses for the trump campaign. >> i do love virginia. >> reporter: the trump express just keeps on rolling, but it seems there's a speed bump emerging in its path. >> you should ask them questions about the detail of the foreign policies our president will confront. you better be able to lead our country on the first day. >> reporter: but trump's

but his foreign policy is a disconnected series of thoughts. >> reporter: under pressure, the media announced today they'll limit the event to two hours and allow opening and closing statements. david, trump's critics are saying, well, sure he wants that, because that means less time for questions and unscripted responses, marley on this topic area that is not his strength. >> which is interesting because his attitude is sort of, ask me anything you want and i'll answer. >> reporter: foreign policy is tricky. i wouldn't want to be up there for two hours or more trying to answer detailed questions about foreign leaders and so forth. luckily for all of us, i am not running for president. i think trump is encountering that this is a complex undertaking and certainly he has excelled at real estate and other venues this is an aspect that he's going to have to get up to speed with because he's competing with people who should run this.
