almost as if the police union is sounding the alarm about a 911 center saying the dispatchers are making mistakes that could kill one. 911 emergency for essex middleton and topsfield are handled by a center next to the jail in middletown. union for the topsfield police expressed no confidence in the center. the union says officers have been sent to the wrong addresss and even to the wrong towns. the sheriff's office which manages the center is not commenting tonight. the city of lowell wants to villains cameras. they planned to buy a gun shop detection system for the city but police believe that they would be better off adding sur veil and cameras instead -- surveillance cameras instead. the park which is next to sponsor. citizens bank will help fund

the they at -- cleveland and cincinnati at the 62. and here's the storm system we are watching. the energy will move to the north. and we get the tail end of the storm system. some snow that will come down. the radar looks impressive but almost none of this is reaching the surface. we have really low dew points and so it's going take while before it reaches ground for most of us a chance for flurries this evening and the best chance of snow comes after 10. and temperatures bottoming out near the freezing mark areas of slick travel and a coating to an inch is possible. mainly northern massachusetts and then working into northern new-land 1 to 3 and -- new england 1 to 3 and higher peaks 4 to 5. and the ski area gets a fresh coat. hour by hour the snow starting to break out as we head into the evening. and then as we move towards saturday morning, southerly wind increasing and that's going to bring up warmer air. snow showers will change over to rain showers for many by the time we get towards tomorrow morning.

we will get sun working in there after the showers and then a cold front approaches late in the day. and a chance for few more rain showers to develop especially well northwest of boston. so we are looking at mild afternoon after some snow tonight and we hit 52 tomorrow afternoon. gusty south southwesterly wind most of us stay above freezing tomorrow night. not very cold and then on sunday, i think the more enjoyable the two weekend days will have a breeze and not quite as strong as one and a little more sunshine and no showers on sunday. and high temps are up around 50. moving towards the ski slopes they start the day with snowfall and chance for a couple rain showers after that. highs make 43 tomorrow afternoon and up around 40 and dry on sunday. mentioned that next storm system at the end of the weekend on sunday night. and an area of low pressure is going to glide off to the south. and still a little uncertainty here as to where this will track. if it goes a bill bit more south we will -- bit more south nothing a bit more north 1 to 3 inches of snow. so not a big day deal either way.

heading towards wednesday a mix of snow and ice is likely and then a bigger storm system tracks to the west on thursday. rain. the bottom line is it's going to be a ugly weather week. it's not going to be a major storm in terms of snow but we will have a wintry mix and heavy rainfall and not a beautiful look last week of february. highs in the 30s on tuesday and wednesday and another cold shot moving towards next weekend but david and pauler after next weekend it's march and we are thinking spring. >> i like it. thank you. >> we love it. this is an exciting sight. first official day for the new sox. >> fun to see. >> reporter: he better produce i go -- neater produce. today is the -- he better produce. ignore the information about snow. david price this a bullpen
