11:19 pm
and that one we're okay with. but it is this area in red off the coast of africa here that could develop into a tropical depression in the next 24 to 48 hours. but it does not look like they will affect the eastern u.s. so that is good. it looks to stay out at sea, but once they do get named we will keep you up to date. now, today, we were trying to squeeze out a few showers that we just didn't get there though. and the weather watchers did report some very light rain. and see westbrookfield. 0.66 inches of rain picking up a trace of rain from a couple of sprinkles now. satellite and radar is looking better for some isolated shower action overnight tonight. warm front will continue to lift to the north here. we're going to be very humid, sticky, areas of fog and plus dealing with another chance for rain into sunday before the cold front sitting to the west will sweep through. that'll bring us the better chance for maybe an isolated thunderstorm threat as we get into early sunday morning. there is a marginal risk, but

11:21 pm
temperatures even though that we will have a partly sunny skies. most of the day the clouds will rule. and i think that cooling off by monday you'll see plenty of sunshine to start the workweek or the school week on tuesday. 83 on wednesday and 86. another chance for rain not looking like a drought buster, but the end of the week is when we could really feel like fall with overnight lows in the low 50s. >> yeah 70s during the day. thanks. still to come, they are trying to hold on to first ac

11:25 pm
the 6th inning, down 3-0 and they were cruising until the absolutely red hot dustin pedroia. and they lay it to the left. the stocks were down 3-1. the 9th inning they were down a run. two outs. sox fall to the jays 3-2 and their lead to the al east is now down to just one game. meanwhile former sox pitcher rich hill is trying to make history. trying to get a perfect to this incredible grab by puig. but manager david roberts with the very difficult decision as he pulls the injured pitcher at that point. hill wasn't happy. and joe blanton gave out a two- out single in the 8th. you have to feel bad for rich there. feeling bad, patriots, no brady, no gronk. let's look at the positives as
