fall here, and much more impressive storm developing over the course of the afternoon as it was approaching the florida cost line, so here you -- coastline, so here you see the eye due south of tallahassee, making land fall within the next hour, and then the west coast of florida really looking at a threat for tornadoes which is always a problem with a tropical landing. the friction helps spin up the tornadoes. so it's coming up the coastline, and exiting in north carolina, then moves out tot sea east of new jersey, and then it will stall there, drift around a couple of days. slowly weaken over time, it will be a slow process, and because of hanging out it's really going to churn up the surf. and the reason it's stalling, big ridge of high pressure building over the northeast

could drift sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday, even into thursday next week just offshore. so the time line, tomorrow beautiful day. 70s. feels like september. dry air, bright skies. wonderful. then saturday gorgeous day, crisp, comfortable sunny. and we stay dry all day. then sunday the drifting northward at this point. increasing cloud cover, especially across far southern new england, and maybe some rain band late in the day, even at this point northern massachusetts into new hampshire, maine, and vermont may all still be dry. monday is the day we have the highest chance of seeing rain. this is also where we'll see some of the strongest wind, and roughest surf. so looking at winds gusting about 20 to 40, maybe 45 miles per hour, and some periods of heavy rain fall.

focuses towards southeast massachusetts. so the best chance of really denting the drought is the cape, islands, areas south of boston. once you go north and west, the totals should drop quite a bit. increasing clouds saturday, sunday a chance of showers developing, especially toward the south coast, and monday is the most wet, damp, and cool day in the 70s. certainly high surf, ri currents, and coastal floodings, but it should be minor. and in terms of wind gust, 20 to 45 miles per hour peaking sunday into monday, and out of the northeast. kind of rooting on rain fall, i know bad timing, but the latest drought update this morning ex- trending the extreme count -- extending the extreme drought down to taunton. so look at the cape, if your plans are here, that's the highest impact, especially late

chance of downpours. here's the seven-day, next week really depends on how far hangout to see the storm spins. still lingering showers tuesday. >> all right, eric, thanks so much. might be hurricane season, but there was chris, but it wasn't -- christmas, but it wasn't all cheer. renters learning about their rights. one boston student found an extra roommate as he was moving out. >> reporter: you come home from class and there's a man in your kitchen. >> yeah, long dark hair in the kitchen. he taking off out the back door. >> reporter: mattresses everywhere, including under one man in a santa suit. boston christmas. >> got a small skoaling from the police, but cheered some people up. tom brady on the field for
