we are averaging to slightly above the normal for the month so far only 5 days in but this is what to expect. mild days and shots of colder air that comes into play but don't stay along all that long. it's 6 in nashu afterra and 3 in keene a lot of variation has to do with the wind where the wind is calm that's where we are-- the temperatures cooled off the most. and the wind is calm in a lot of spots. notice 9 miles per hour in boston. that's all it takes to add a bite to the air. real feel is at 11 degrees at logan airport. so it's another chilly start but we are not dealing with the subzero wind chills like at this time yesterday. skies are crystal clear overhead right now. and just under 10 minutes from now, the international space station is going to flyby so if you are out walking to the car maybe walking a pet or dog take a look up. international space station will be visible for 4 minutes from 5:25 a.m. to 5:29.

holtby owns the bruins. se plaster into the glass and goes down in a heap and stayed down for a while. he would be helped off and body injury. in the second bruins down 2-0 and get on the board. connally to erickson and light the lamp. 2-1 capitals after 2. and same score third period. he beats him on rebound and it's 3-1 capitals. and the lead is cut to one but with 35 seconds holtby makes two big stops. 25 saves as capitals have the 5th straight loss in 6 games and capitals went. to football and patriots watching film yesterday and will get back on the practice field today but won't have a team to get ready for and that's part of the beauty of having a bye week in the post season.

exploitation of the you will have ncial by the powerful might never be told. other newspapers and outlets like cbs boston.com do a fine job of covering sports but only the globe has the horses to deliver investigative and out of town sports coverage. plenty of fine reporters cover beacon hill but the globe's report sag indispensable asset to understanding what goes on there and as we have been reminded the past 9 days no globe means misnotices of births deaths and weddings some of the most important news stories. so here's hoping for a quick globe recovery. the red sox. talk back to me at keller@wbz.com or via twitter at keller at large. fighting back. >> how a local grandmother took on a would be attacker. >> a baby left alone in a freezing car.
