arriving mid-week this year, many are taking time this weekend to prepare tributes. in bourne, volunteers are placing thousands of american flags on the graves of soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice. a tribute to soldiers who gave their lives to their country. paul morti: whether we come every veterans day or whether we come every month or every week, we need to thank these people for the sacrifices that they've made that keeps this country free. frank: paul monti started this tradition at the massachusetts national cemetery in bourne to honor his son, sergeant first class jarryd monti. the decorated soldier killed in afghanistan in 2006, his grave one of more than 64,000 here marked with a flag. the solemn memorial called operation flags for vets. >> it's always a sad moment for me, you know, always gets me choked up to know that all these men and women gave their lives for us. frank: steven served in the navy during vietnam. he salutes after planting each flag.

6:14 am
lot different than this time yesterday. it feels more like fall out there this morning. grab a coat if you're headed out first thing. we are going to feel warming trend through the workweek, and there is going to be chances for much-needed rain. there is multiple chances actually in the seven-day forecast which we will take. right now though it's all about the chill. it feels more like 31 degrees in orange. 32 in keene. 45 right now in boston. 46 on the cape and 42 in plymouth. another reason we've been so cool, we have very gusty winds out of the north and west. they're still gusting at 26 miles an hour on nantucket. it will be breezy through the afternoon today with those winds anywhere from 10-20 miles an hour. now with a lot of sunshine, temperatures should warm to right around 50 degrees in worcester, 52 orange. 56 in taunton. 54 boston. 54 in portsmouth. and 55 degrees on nantucket. but again it's going to feel cooler with those strong winds
6:15 am
and then tonight the winds die down just a touch. we have clear skies yet again. and so for tomorrow morning for your monday morning it's going to be the coldest morning all week long. 30 degrees in concord for your overnight lows. 32 nashua. 40 boston. for the kids heading off to the bus stop, you should grab a coat first thing tomorrow morning but then through the afternoon with a southwest wind, we will warm up into the upper 50's, low 60's so running above where we should be this time of year which we should be around 54 degrees. you can thank high pressure. we're on the colder side of it today but tomorrow we get on the warmer side. and then we watch this area of low pressure. now the latest model is keeping it closer to the coastline and because of that, it's going to play more of an impact into our weather as we head towards tuesday and weds we. in fact, i have put rain chances at a high level on tuesday beginning after lunchtime and continuing on wednesday early morning so that's why they're at a low level. it should wind down through the
6:16 am
afternoon just in time for a lot of the veterans day things like the parades and the festivities. high pressure building in. we're warmer as we head towards monday afternoon. and then here comes this area of low pressure bringing rain mainly after lunchtime for all of our area. how much rain are we talking about? well, looking at different kinds of computer models. some keeping it lower to a quarter of an inch to a half an inch. this is in the middle of a half an inch to an inch. the heaviest rain in southeastern mass from this one. then we really do need rain so whatever we can get we'll take because we're down over eight inches for the year in boston so like this. i want to show you this on future cast on tuesday and break it down for you. your morning ride to work should be dry. once we get towards 12:00, 1:00, 2:00 and heavier downpours making their way in by, say, 5:00, just in time for that ride home from work so it could be a tough go of things on tuesday night. now wednesday for veterans day
6:17 am
again, if you're planning to go to some of these festivities, i would grab the rain gear for the flag-raising in the morning. but we should see some breaks of sunshine, i think, by the break time. and that appreciation dinner should be dry but noels those temperatures in seven-day forecast. we are warming up into the upper 50's and low 60's for the workweek. again we're running above average all week long. so enjoy it. antoinette and frank. antoinette: danielle, thank you. 6:18. this train derailment in wisconsin is just one of the stories we're following right now. frank: officials are trying to figure out what caused the accident along the mississippi river. several cars flipped on their side and some in the water. highways were closed and residents evacuated as a precaution, but no one was injured, and the train did not catch fire. antoinette: right now, a frantic search is on for nearly two dozen people missing after two dams burst inside a mine in southeastern brazil. officials are using small airplanes and a drone to search. the mud came without a warning thursday afternoon, covering the village making the ground search

6:21 am
it. doggett: it's a lot of your memories. sometimes that's the only place we have them. emily: in fact, 35% of the youngest respondents told kaspersky they would panic if they lost access to their smart phone data. many don't back up images or contact info. chris doggett: i think the key is for people to ask themselves what are they uploading from their brain and putting on to their device, and then just look for the appropriate app or piece of software to protect it. emily: or take this old-fashioned advice. >> keep a paper calendar in my pocketbook. if i lost my phone or if there was some glitch and i couldn't get to it, i wouldn't know what was going on. emily: we mentioned protecting your phone and data. the survey found one out of every four of us simply doesn't use security. in this day and age, that is something you might want to change quickly. emily reimer, wcvb, newscenter 5. antoinette: so true. if you ever forget. look at us. i-pad, phone, other phone. if you forget these at home, you feel like you can't function your whole day.

affected by the current overabundance of deer. d.c.r. has taken considerable steps to ensure the public's safety during this controlled hunt." antoinette: remember this from last year? we may be in store for another wicked winter. there's a theory that snow in sibera during the month of october can predict our own conditions for the winter. and last month, siberia experienced record snowfall and the worst blizzard in a decade. above-average snow cover there is believed to affect the polar vortex and send bitterly cold temperatures to the northeast. let's just hope that that theory is wrong. danielle: , we'll have judah cohen our long-range forecaster come in with harvey. he'll give us his prediction. he does look at siberia. we'll have to see what happens. let's close our eyes to that scene and look behind us.
6:42 am
danielle: all right! east boston, looking at boston. lots of sunshine out there today. but it's cold. don't you forget that. temperatures are starting in the 30's and 40's. yesterday morning, we started the day in the 60's and r50's in both boston and worcester. so you can see temperatures have dropped about 10-15 degrees cooler. than this time yesterday. if you are headed out the door right now, i would grab a coat because it's cold. 31 degrees in orange. 36 in concord. 40 in lawrence. 42 degrees in plymouth. and 50 on nantucket. now the good news is that today is the only day that we're right around where we should be this time of year. once we get towards tomorrow and then tuesday and wednesday, we start to moderate back into the upper 50's and low 60's. so if you like the november warmth we've been seeing, you're in for more of that as we head through the workweek. one thing that is also on the
6:43 am
rise is the winds today. you're going to feel them out of the north and west. anywhere from 10 to about 20 miles an hour sustained. but we will have full sunshine through the day. temperaturewise, warming to 50 in worcester. 53 nashua. 54 boston. and the mid 50's on the south shore and the cape. now tonight with clear skies and the winds dropping off just a touch, we will cool down into the 30's through the merrimack hills. 40 in boston. even 34 in taunton. so tomorrow morning for the kids heading off to the bus stop, you make sure you dress them with the coats. they will need it. you will need it on your way to work. one other thing you want to do if you get an extra minute or two tomorrow morning is look east just before sunrise and you're not going only going to see the waning crescent moon, you're going to venus, mars and even jupiter. i've seen pictures from this morning from you folks on twitter arch facebook. continue to do that for me. i love to see those pictures and
6:44 am
i'll feature them later on in the program. high temperatures today will warm up into the upper 50's. excuse me. this is tomorrow. upper 50's and low 60's. because that wind will be shifting to the south and west at about 5-10 miles an hour. so lots of sunshine. that is the trend as high pressure really dominates our weather. not only today but also for tomorrow. and then we watch this area of low pressure that could bring us some rain. that begins on tuesday. notice there is a high chance for rain now. lower chance on wednesday because it looks like it will only impact us wednesday morning. that means for veterans day for all the things that are happening around town, it looks like it should be dry by afternoon. but in the morning hours, if you're headed out for that, you want to make sure you grab an umbrella or some rain gear. high pressure dominates today as well as for tomorrow and tomorrow we start off cool but we warm up through the afternoon. and here comes that rain by 11:00 tuesday morning. and it really begins to rain toward the afternoon and into
6:45 am
now the models are all over the place with how much rain. i think we could see anywhere from a quarter of an inch to half an inch to maybe upwards of an inch especially in southeastern mass. that's the best chances for the rain. we really do need it because we're down over eight inches for the year in boston. so let's time out that rain for you on tuesday. it looks like if you're arriving into work, it should be dry. once we get through the afternoon and your ride home from work, you see those downpours. they look likely from boston to worcester down along the south shore so obviously a busy road will be wet on tuesday afternoon. it continues into early wednesday. by wednesday afternoon, we're dry. we're still mild though through thursday and friday. and another chance for some rain is coming thursday into friday morning. frank? frank: thanks a lot, danielle. it's game day for the patriots. to stay undefeated against the washington redskins. the patriots will improve to 8-0 if they win. kickoff is at 1:00 at gillette. we'll be live with hi-lites and post-game reaction at 5:00 and 6:00 tonight. antoinette: meanwhile, the
