this video shot from clinton, massachusetts, and also windham, new hampshire. seeing some snow flakes yesterday. it was almost a sun-snow shower because we had the sun out as well from those dark clouds in the distance. eep in boston yesterday, there were a couple of flakes of snow. we got a trace of snow officially at logan airport. not the earliest on record. that was october 10 back in 1979 but nonetheless it's a sign of how unusually cold it is out there. certainly a cold start to the week. we're going to have a lot of sunshine today. warm-up comes through the middle of the week here. and our best chance of showers this week is on thursday. skies are mainly clear this morning. there is one exception to that. notice the outer cape and nan tublght. got the cold air coming in over the relatively warmer ocean waters. water temperature right now is 54. so you get the temperatures in the 20's. the effects are clouds and a couple of showers which has mostly been off shore. otherwise it is clear across new england this morning. and the temperatures are very cold. in the city right now 31 degrees in boston.

bottom out in the 30's and lower 40's. the temperatures hold steady and rise a little bit by tomorrow morning. winds will be picking up out of the southwest tomorrow. it will be a gusty sort of wind throughout the day tomorrow but temperatures will come up into the lower 60's, going for a high of 64 in boston tomorrow. the trade-off aate lot of clouds as this front drops south ward. can't even rule out a stray shower tomorrow but the best chance of showers will be coming in on thursday. let me show tu future cast breakdown for you. notice the clouds around but the showers kind of fall apart as they approach from north to south. the best chance of a shower tomorrow. if you see one, it won't last long. that will be from the pike on north ward. otherwise we'll see a fair amount of clouds lingering on wednesday. it will be dry still around 60. warmest day of the week with the rain coming on thursday. looks to be in the mid 60's to even near 70 degrees and cooling off but it looks like sunshine next weekend and temperatures in the 50's. so a little better than last week. olessa: much better. cindy: quite the chill in the air this morning. olessa: you'll need to warm up the cars and give yourself some

no one in the crowd was hurt. emily: that turned out better than it could have been. olessa: for sure. a snake scare forces a bus to evacuate. a passenger in pennsylvania snuck his four-foot boa constrictor on board a septa bus sunday. but the snake somehow wiggled out of the man's jacket and onto the bus floor between chairs. when other riders noticed, the bus came to a halt. the snake was safely removed and given back to its owner who says the reptile was probably just looking for food. not just a snake but it's also hungry. please don't bring those on the bus. randy: exactly. treated with one breakthrough at umass medical. the discovery that could be big news for aids and ebola patients. and this painting is more than artwork for one local family. their connection to a treasure
