situations. all on the three-year project where it is needed. but the headaches, they are frequent and severe. for those emergency signatures are delayed. >> i know that you need to crack them to make that omelet. but it better be the best looking omelet that i seen. as we head into the cooler weather, you can't help, but wonder where we are seeing next. >> yes, it is a typical winter, but in 2015, which is this picture right here, we have a record of 110.6 inches of snow. the administration, noah, just released their winter prediction saying that here in

average. wow, you're going out on the limb. >> that is true and false. that they basically target those areas with the high certainty if it will be cold or warm or really dry and that we don't fall into that category and that we do agree with that as we will be heading towards a typical winter. something that will be more in line with what do you think about when you see winter? that part will be on target. but the across the southern tier of the u.s. towards the midwest this winter, the expectation. now today locally the change. well about 10 to 20 degrees cooler than this time yesterday and that does not mean that it will be all that cold outside in the upper 60s. the winds are off the atlantic today. but today is still above average for this time of the season. that is unusual warmth that has been squeezed off to the south down towards the mid atlantic watching the rainfall starting to move in across the area.

northern new england. most of this rain will miss us as well heading up into pennsylvania and new york state and another spot seeing a lot of drought. so good news for them. but at the same time we will be watching this system, a fish hook looking thing here around the bahamas as it might become a tropical storm otto. that will help produce the rain for us tomorrow. and so it is kind of a great relationship between all these systems over the next 24 hours. as for tonight, there are some clouds with a little bit of fog and drizzle holding tomorrow, some areas of the light drizzle and the showers are possible during the morning first half of the day. best chance for some heavier showers and those downpours is going to be from the mid- afternoon into the evening as you'll see those moving up across some of the tropical moisture that will be tied to what might become ott ox. the best chance for seeing these elements will be across eastern massachusetts getting into central and western mass not as likely, very isolated in

than half an inch with some rainfall, but not really drought denting. showers will continue on friday night. saturday morning they will start to taper off into the start of the weekend. that's the thing about tomorrow, it doesn't feel like october. temperatures are at or above 70 degrees and becomes very humid tomorrow even though that we don't have a lot of sunshine. they will feel sticky outside for this time of the year with the dew points in the afternoon. well up into the 60s. the humid air will be with us throughout friday night into early saturday morning before the drier air will throughout the day on saturday. so speaking of the weekend, some spotty showers are possible on saturday. i think if we get a calmer part of the day it had be during the morning in terms of winds. as we head through the afternoon and evening hours this storm will deepen bringing in the cooler air kicking up the wind for saturday afternoon night and into the day on sunday. that is some snow across northern new england. so not too blustery in the morning. but by the afternoon and evening we're gusting up to 20 to 25 miles per hour. that same kind of wind will

leaves this weekend, but i do think that you could put away the summer attire finally because much colder air is moving in. a few showers on saturday. the afternoon wind and the temperatures will be falling with a blustery very october day on sunday. not unusual, but just windy and chilly and a good day to hang out to watch some football. here is your accuweather forecast. highs near the 50s and the lows in the 30s each night. david, lisa, over to you. >> thanks, eric. turning to sports now. starting the season with three straig ready for home cooking at the t.d. gardens where steve burton is standing by live. >> you're absolutely right with just one home opener. tonight is no different when the beavs take on the new jersey devils. especially where david beck is looking forward to the first home opener here in boston. >> this is home cooking against our fans in bringing that
