cold front moves through. mainly clear skies will fall back into the 20s for suburbs and 31 in the city of boost the are -- city of boston and tomorrow a quiet day if you are heading out to voting. and wednesday the next storm brace wintry mix to rainfall and we will look at timeline for that and another one we are watching for the end of the week in a little bit. >> thank you. we are just 13 hours away from the polls opening in massachusetts. a lot of a win or loss in the primaries could make or break campaigns. democratic race in massachusetts expected to be a very close one. a new wbz umass amherst poll shows hillary clinton beating bernie sanders by 3 percentage points but 9% of voters undecided it really is anybody's game. on republican side donald trum. front runner in massachusetts with 47% of the vote. marco rubio and ted cruz tied for second with 15%.

massachusetts and one territory will hold the primaries or caucuses tomorrow. >> hundreds of delegates could have significant impact on the democratic race for the white house especially jim smith is live in milton tonight where bernie sanders is about to hold a rally. pretty quiet -- crowded there jim. >> reporter: even several states are involved nationally in super tuesday the two democratic front-runners are right here in massachusetts tonight. and that includes bernie sappeders. he is -- sanders he is here due to speak in about an hour at >> bernie bernie. >> reporter: the long lines formed early outside milton high school. a packed house expected for a bernie sanders appearance on the eve of super tuesday. sanders still faces an uphill battle but the race is tight here in massachusetts. and his supporters are pumped. >> we think he is a good human

seems like he got integrity. >> notes going to be bought so i mean, for me that's like that automatically just puts people behind him. >> i think he has a shot against hillary nationally and think massachusetts is going to be tough tomorrow. >> i need your help tomorrow. >> reporter: hillary is also in massachusetts tonight. a sign of just how close the race is here. at a late afternoon rally in boston she concentrated not on bernie sanders but instead, took a not so veil swipe at donald trump. >> and where those political voice who is basically tried to say you have to agree with me orelse, are being louder and loud are we need to say no. no. in democracy we work together. >> reporter: back here live at milton high school again burn bernie sanders slated to speak about 7 p.m. or shortly there after.

competitive in lot of states. but, keep in mind super tuesday primaries are not winner take all so even across the board trump romp won't end but it could be the beginning of the end. especially if he loses the biggest prize of all texas to ted cruz. the home state senator. now that will likely embolden cruz to stay in the race and continue splitting the antitrump vote with marco rubio. and that would almost surely seal the deal for trump as the winner take all phase of gop race kicks in on march 15th. if he walks away with the big prizes on that day, delegate rich states like florida north carolina illinois and ohio, he will have won in all regions of the country and in key swing states. and what's left of the party will then have to make a choice. keep fighting a losing battle or start thinking about november and the question of what you do now. >> and the language and

weekend and so people are going to have a decision to make aboutembracing him or opossession the nomination. >> reporter: -- opposing the >> reporter: there's a lot of hurt feelings and he think if he so is up the nomination it will be up to - if he sews up the nomination it will be up to party. without the party united he's got a tough road in november. >> a fascinating year. >> reporter: you know it's not been dull i will say that. >> jon keller thanks so much so remember, wbz has you covered tomorrow join us for super tuesday special election coverage on my tv38 at 8 and then at 10cbs news has a prime time special on wbz and stay with us for wbz news at 11 for a sol super tuesday wrap up. the boston based film spotlight took home best picture at the academy awards which is based on boston globe investigation that revealed a sex abuse scandal at the catholic church. mayor walsh congratulated

a little behind 2001 and 2002. 52 in the city # 50 -- 50 in lawrence. 30s are in the berkshires one cold front mobbed through and produced rain showers a stronger cold front off to the west will deliver the colder air by tomorrow morning. so when you wake up on tuesday we are in the 20s to lower 30s and chill returns and it'stypical cold and a much more seasonal day and we begin march and it's in like a lamb and weather will cooperate. chilly in the morning. low 40s through the midday andbright skies tomorrow. cloud won't thicken up until late in the afternoon and evening. and there's the highs about 20 degrees cooler than what we had out there today. but this is more like it for this time of the season. now as we move towards tomorrow night, next storm system starts to approach and it might be cold enough for a little bit of sleet and freezing rain a little before midnight. think northern worcester county may see a little bit of this

different than the last couple. it doesn't have the same punch and we don't expect the big thunderstorms and the cold air is not as deep so it's not going to stick around for as long. so the bottom line is during the overnight a little sleet and freezing rain is possible. by the time we wake up on wednesday morning i think everyone is above freezing so rain showers a few down pours on wednesday morning. and most of this is up until lunchtime. by lunch we are starting to dry out. so looks like a wet wednesday morning. a little bit of thunder and lightning is possible. not expecting severe weather like last time and drying out bringing in colder air on wednesday afternoon. next system we watch is a larger storm and it's a winter storm that's going to be snow on the northern end of it. right now it looks south of us. so not expecting a significant hit here in new-land at this time. but we are several days out and this is something we are going to monitor. and best chance of seeing some snowfall from this, would be the cape and islands as well as the south coast right now. and at this point it's snow showers. so we will track the progressthat comes north and it

south and it's a total none event. we expect colder air. that moves in on wednesday afternoon after a mild morning. and then thursday, friday, below average temperatures that weekend. and this might be the last hurrah for winter it looks chilly but next week signs point towards a big warmup and i think a lot of spring fever next week. so david and paula a few more chilly days we can handle. thanks so much. >> oh, yes go ahead. >> we have exciting news. >> i am so sorry. >> wednesday's child is returning here to wbz. >> this is the long time segment jack williams founded 35 years ago and it features children who need adoptive families. when jack retired a lot of people asked all of us if we would continue wednesday's child and so, queer pleased to announce we are relaunching it the first wednesday child's story will be this wednesday at 5 and 6 on wbz and at 10 on my tv38.

without the b's gig anything in return. bruins gm said he gave it a lot of thought and didn't pull the trigger. >> the deal had to be right has to be right for the organization for me to do that. and that's what i was entrusted to do and i will continue to do and for me loui is a important part of what we are doing now and to be in a position we are in and it could be also for a extended period of time if we find a deal. >> sweepey made a -- sweeney made a couple moves. he was the leading scorer this season with 16 goals and 25 assist and 63 games the b's are the 9th team he played for in 11 seasons. so sweeney acquired john michael liles in exchange for a third round pick and 5th rounder in 2017 and minor leagueor.

goals and 9 assists this season. and he is 13th in the national hockey league. fort myers red sox playing first two games today against ramirez seeing live action at first base and he was fine he added a single and double. and in the fourth no score 2 onand he crushes the home runner and making it 3-0 sox and they blank the eagles 6-0 and they beat northeastern by a score of 8-3. so they their you go that's sports for now guys. >> all right. >> after you. >> thanks so much. still to come, the mbta is getting back on track when it comes to money.
