end of the day, not as harsh. then we'll turn our attention to the storm system. the energy is moving ashore across the pacific northwest and like any good recipe, pick up some ingredients along the way. that energy will leave the coast. and tropical moisture, and really starts to deepen. and off the mid atlantic coastline on saturday. that's where it starts to crank up in the mid atlantic takes the brunt of the storm. the question for us is, as we head towards saturday and sunday, how far off to our south and east is this going to track? a little farther north and west and it's a bigger snow solution a little further south and east and we just get grazed by it. we are living right on that northern. right now it doesn't look like a storm system for northern new england. we could see some significant snow here. the further south you go, the higher that risk is going to go. where we might see bigger snow totals and coastal concerns from on shore winds coming up

>> thank you. breaking news tonight. where a man was pulled unconscious from his burning home. that fire breaking out before 8:00 in a home on edith homes drive. firefighters could not get inside because of clutter in the home. the victim was rushed to the hospital and right now is in serious condition. also breaking tonight, the coast guard just suspended the search for 12 marines, including a native who went missing off the coast of hawaii after a helicopter crash. let's get to liam martin, he's live in the satellite center. >> crews only recovered four empty life rafts and debris from the choppers, but there is no sign of those missing marines. among them, corporal christopher orlando. officials say that the decision tonight to suspend was tough. >> i hope that the effort, the

willing to put forward so much effort to try to bring those marines home will provide some solace in the future. >> the crews will transition to a recovery and salvage mission. hawaii on friday. >> several breaking stories in campaign 2016 tonight. starting with the big endorsement for donald trump. fun. i am here because like you, i know that it is now or never. i'm in it to win it. >> former vice presidential candidate, sarah palin is trump. his campaign calls her endorsement an honor. campaign. one of his volunteers was killed in a car accident in iowa. that crash on icy roads also injured three campaign workers. carson suspended his campaign events for the day. and in new hampshire, there is a big shakeup for the democrats.

>> the boston public schools are my priority. >> but walsh acknowledged the anxiety over many parents, even as the angry tone of some of the debates. >> it will require a unified effort. that's why the conversation around schools concern me. instead of unity, too often, we see schools pitted against each other by adults. tonight, i'm calling on everyone to come together to back all our children, all our teachers, and all our schools. >> walsh's cost cutting efforts and support for charter schools may render that unity elusive in the months ahead. >> and even though he never mentioned the collapse of his summer olympics dream, the political lesson that even a guy as likable as walsh will face intense resistance has seemingly been learned. >> bring to the table a vision for our common welfare. find common ground, even when

protect what we love about our city by sometimes embracing change. >> the mayor walsh got a big hand when he mentioned the city's victory in the corporate headquarterrings. funding starved school advocates, a measure of the tough political road that lies ahead. david. >> john, thank you. on wbz. a man opens fire inside a train station injuring two people and terrified riders capture the chaos as it unfolds. right now, police are searching for the gunman and wbz is live in east boston tonight and this train. >> that's right, david, and now police have put on a be on the lookout for this suspect after they say he fled out of the t station you see behind me, terrified. >> i heard what was a shot.

on tuesday, there were 15 towns threatening calls. from the south shore to boston to towns north and west. it is becoming a trend angering more than police. it's scary. it's scary, i think, more than our kids. every day you wonder, is something going to happen? >> from fear to frustration, bogus calls have parents looking for answers. sending their kids off to school shouldn't be so unnerving. >> it's obviously a little bit stressful, but you have to also take it serious, you know. i have no real answer on how they should solve it. >> there were also calls in maryland and new jersey and now the fbi is investigating if all of these are connected. live tonight, kate merrill, wbz news. >> so disruptive. those bomb threats bring us to our number of the night. 20, that's how many years in prison you could face for

dear fellow citizen, i know how it feels to save college - times two. i get that it can be overwhelming, m living it. saving' s not that complicated. with what you have. if you have a question about saving, ask me. sincerely, alex payne.

you can't blame anyone for the weather, but blame the city for an expensive inconvenience. >> a parking ban put in place so late that many drivers got towed. julie is live tonight. julie, the city admits it messed up. >> talk now, okay. >> my first thought, my mom

and i'm thinking to myself, did it get stolen? >> it was an overnight disappearing act, one that took to process. fortunately monday was a holiday. >> this was my car, it was parked in this dead end area. >> which means he didn't have to work, but others did. >> my moms and aunts cars were parked down this stretch. >> mahoney and his family soon came to realize their vehicles were at this tow lot and it was going to cost them. >> per car, it was $132. >> times three. >> times three for my aunt, yup. >> in all, the city of worcester ticketed nearly 750 vehicles and towed more than half early monday morning. because a little known winter weather parking ban was in effect. and now officials admit they were to blame. >> we were probably in bed around 10:00 and it was issued at 11:30. >> officials posted that ban at a quarter to 1:00 a.m. on facebook and later elsewhere.

it should have alerted residents sooner and will make good on those tickets and the towing expenses. >> it was very poorly timed. >> so we let michael know he was going to be completely reimbursed. he was more than happy. we are live in worcester, wbz news. >> thank you so much. of course everyone is talking about the weekend, but now want to talk about what is happening now. this is a big deal. it is really cold out there. >> right, and you know what, eric, you are right. that sunshine looks so pretty when you're looking out the window and it did nothing to make it feel better. >> no ways about it, really uncomfortable day to be out and about. 25 degrees our high temperature today. below freezing since sunday evening and this is our coldest stretch since february of last year and the wind has not helped matters. temperatures have been falling back through the teens, still

but windchill values are 2 below in worcester, 6 in manchester. it is cold all over and certainly want to be layered up. not as much wind as we had today, but gusting through tonight and tomorrow's wind gusts are mainly between 20 and 30 miles per hour. could see a couple as high as 30 miles per hour. while not as harsh today, it is still going to be a cold, wintery day. actual real feel temperatures will be 0 to 10 out the door. temperatures in the teens and stay on that chilly note all day long. the winds out of the north, northwest. we'll add 5 degrees to our high temperatures from today and still be a breeze out there tomorrow night and we're talking about more wind on the way for thursday. high temperature near 30 in boston tomorrow. 26 in worcester. 27. better chance of reaching the freezing mark toward the cape, islands, and coast. it will feel better, but not a huge thaw for us.

this week, oughted area of cold air and high pressure builds in for thursday. 20s, breezy, friday, a break from the wind and we have bright skies, no issues on friday. then we'll turn our attention to this developing nor'easter. what we have on saturday is a storm undergoing a very powerful storm. and in fact, it could be a historic snowstorm in parts of the mid atlantic. they get the biggest totals in around d.c., virginia, any plans here friday into saturday, that's where you want to think about rearranging those plans. for us in southern new england, we are right on the edge of this storm system. so as it slowly moves its way off toward the north and east. the question is, will it wobble further northwest and that's going to bring that line further inland or wobble south and east and take all this out to sea? we're at the point where we're looking at the highest confidence snow. it's from the new york area south and west.

are locked in now. for us, where's our highest risk of plowable snow? you are most in line right now for the biggest snow totals. boston area and along the pike. our cutoff will be sharp here. an area of significant snow and jump into an area with little to nothing and for new hampshire, this may end up being a complete miss. maybe even northern massachusetts. we also have a full moon on saturday, on shore winds, strong winds over the weekend. especially saturday night and this could cause areas of coastal flooding and erosion. there's foining to be things to consider, even if it takes a more southerly track. bottom line is, chilly all workweek. watching the weekend storm, any snow would be arriving on saturday afternoon and dave and lisa, we'll have a much better picture and start talking totals tomorrow. >> thank you. if you're buying a drone, be aware if you're not careful, the cost of the device won't be

>> and otherrings could set you way back. chris explains why getting extra insurance may be key. >> it is basic science, what goes up must come down. and with drones, the ride and lancing can be bumpy. >> drones are hot. they were one of the most season. in fact, about a million of christmas tree. >> a quick search on youtube is evidence many of these new pilots need more training and a check on their insurance. >> some homeowners policies won't cover it. >> jeremy of the drone uab store showed me how to fly. >> you are doing awesome. >> most people learn quickly, but he made this part of his drone display. >> have you seen any of them crash? >> we do a lot of repair work and people do crash. my first thoughts are, before

yonder, you better check with your insurance agent. >> tom, a partner at the insurance say drones may fit in the definition today and be covered by a homeowner's policy. he believes the insurance industry could change that as more claims are filed. >> they are watching it. they are watching every risk. if you are a start of a chain reaction of events and incidents, it can be traced back to you, your personal assets are at risk. >> through groups like the academy of aeronottics. >> i would take that policy and get a copy of the wording and go to your professional insurance agent and ask him, do you think i'm cored? >> if the answer is yes, you could be ready for takeoff.

>> and a milestone tonight for

welcome back. some good news for the bruins. travel with the team and practice with them on monday, so maybe he's close to playing, but he didn't play tonight.

cold again tomorrow.

cold week as a matter of fact
