6:14 am
clouds are but they will thicken up with time this morning. 45 degrees right now out the door in worcester. it's 45 in boston as well. we have lower 40's by the cape. cooler to the north. mid 0's beverly. we're as chilly as 32 up in nashua. and around southern new hampshire, notice we may hang on to at least some filtered sunshine through about lunchtime or so before the clouds thicken up. from south to north we're going to watch that rain spread in. the winds too which are light this morning turn to the east about 10 miles per hour this afternoon so that will hold our temperatures in the mid and upper 50's for highs today. and by lunchtime, we may start to see a couple of showers on the south coast and the cape. but then look how how slowly this whole rain area lifts north ward. by 4:30 5:00 areas along and south of the pike will be dealing with wet weather. to the north it is still dry. that rain will fill in overnight. the winds start to pick up as well with temperatures in the 40's and tomorrow starts wet so windy and raw day overall for the veterans day with high temperatures holding either side of 50 degrees.
6:15 am

6:18 am
go. nick downing: once you finish those, go across your body. emily: the team's fitness coach, nick downing, is also focused on their power and speed. nick downing: we do a lot of jumping, we do a lot of power plyometric stuff, any sort of resisted running, sprinting, hill stuff. emily: and there's really no middle ground when it comes to "soccer fitness." >> that's just because their sport, soccer, is very high intensity or very low intensity. emily: but the best part of practice? >> we're like golden retrievers, you throw a ball in front of us, everyone is going to go attack it and start running around and have some fun. >> i'm not going to call you dogs in my piece, if you don't mind? >> thank you, thank you. emily: your take away? try adding some high-intensity interval training into your routine. push yourself to the max for short bursts to build your stamina and power. tomorrow train like a figure skater. we're getting the fitness secrets from a world championship synchronized skating team. and that means working on and off the ice. randy: is that you?

6:22 am
look at the beautiful sky this morning. a little pink there on the horizon. a little bit of filtered sunshine for a while this morning before the clouds thicken up. you can see rain off to our south. this is moving in our direction but it takes until late afternoon and evening for it to move on in in the boston area. i think it will be close to 6:00 before that rain moves in but before then south of the pike could see a few showers as early as lunchtime on the south coast and the cape. that rain is slow to move in and slow to exit tomorrow. it will be a windy and raw start to your veterans day with rain hanging around until midday before we slowly dry things out in the evening hours. not looking so nice weatherwise for veterans day. emily? emily: thank you, cindy. time for eyepoppers. erika's back with the video you have to see. erika: and it starts with some criminally offensive dancing. we're not kidding. these ladies are wanted for dancing on a man they did not know. this happened in washington, d.c., back in october.

(screaming) erika: remember that beloved subway rat who stole our hearts by trying to scamper off with an entire piece of pizza? some pranksters tried to replicate with what looks like a fake remote-control rat. people with justifiable fear of vermin were understandably freaked out. there at the farmers market at union square. you go to times square. emily: that's a big rat. erika: we were talking about workouts. there's a workout. randy: jumping jacks, yeah. a proposal to change how the mbta program that assists the disabled operates. the idea to get uber and lyft in the mix. right now police are dealing with two crashes along the
6:24 am
sky 5 live over traffic moving now in this area. both of these crashes happened near exit 12. state police tell us that four vehicles were involved in one crash, two in the other. nobody seriously hurt. police say all the lanes remain open. the scenes should be cleared shortly. >> this is an editorial by wcvb-tv channel 5 president and general manager bill fine. bill fine: how can a teacher have an illicit relationship with a young student and not face criminal charges? in massachusetts, it's all about timing. this week, "5 investigates" uncovered the disturbing story of andrea clemens. when andrea was 14, a teacher, robert baker, befriended her and gained her trust. andrea clemens: i had been groomed for two years, and he didn't kiss me til like the week after i turned 16. that slow pacing quickly turned into such an aggressive sexually abusive man that i was terrified all the time, and i had no voice to say no. bill fine: but because andrea was 16, baker's behavior wasn't
6:25 am
sadly, baker targeted other students too until he finally pleaded guilty to charges in 2002 and is now categorized as a level 3 sex offender. but he never faced charges related to andrea. so how unusual is andrea's case? "5 investigates" discovered in recent years, on average, licenses of 15 massachusetts educators are suspended for sexual misconduct each year. but there aren't always charges. when students are 16 years or older, by law, sexual misconduct amazingly isn't considered a crime. it's time the state toughened consent laws and recognized the obvious-- the teacher-and-student relationship is not an equal one-- and those in a position of authority can too readily exert power over young, impressionable teens. andrea is now working with advocates to change state law, making sex between a teacher and student a crime until age 19. age of consent bills have been filed on beacon hill and hearings are scheduled for december.
6:26 am
it is hard to conceive of any reasoning preventing legislators from taking tougher action so stories like andrea's result in criminal consequences. for the girl scout meeting... for the soccer team... for the girl scout meeting... how many meetings are you having?! at stop&shop, prices have just dropped on thousands more items.

good morning! this is newscenter 5's "eyeopener." randy: 6:30 on this tuesday morning. sky 5 live over the massachusetts turnpike. there's been a big back-up on the pike near route 9 in framingham. kevin with the details of that coming up. thank you for joining us. i'm randy price. emily: and i'm emily riemer with cindy and kevin in for olessa stepanova. kevin: big delays out there. it does look like it's in the clearing stages. emily: no rain for now. cindy: no rain for the morning commute. some of us will deal with it for the evening commute. look at that sky over boston right now. the sun is up. we have pink there on the horizon. no worries at&t the bus stop for the kids this morning. a light jacket. lots of 40's out there. getting off the bus this afternoon you may have some showers on the cape. otherwise it's still dry with temperatures in the 50's. 45 boston to worcester. lower 40's on the cape. notice north and west of town still 30's showing up this morning. you can see the clouds out there thin enough for at least some

6:31 am
soon after route 9. look at these delays all the way back beyond 495. going to take some time for that toese out. up north, 128 is getting much busier now out of that peabody stretch down through 93. 93 itself pockets of andover most of the way down to the city, that is going to take you 51 minutes to get down to the lower deck. south of town the expressway is about 30 minutes braintree to boston. emily. emily: kevin, thanks. right now an alleged drunk driver is getting ready to face a judge charged in a deadly case of road rage. police say jarrad arrone was run off 495 in mansfield by michael hinds. hinds took offbut was later arrested. randy: right now boston police are looking for the suspect who jumped out a window to escape this standoff in roslindale. the man also a suspect in a stabbing and robbery on friday. no one else inside was hurt. emily: right now the top republican candidates for president are getting ready for another showdown. the fourth g.o.p. debate will be

by the fox business network. randy: new this morning. big changes could be coming to the service designed to help the disabled and the elderly. emily: the eyeopener's todd kazakiewich is live in boston where this is not sitting well with many who depend on "the ride." todd. todd: emily, randy, good morning. we're talking about a new report that says the mbta could save $8 million a year if it hike fares on the ride. at a meeting monday, officials pointed out the savings if rates were raised from $3.00 to $4.20 a ride. that's a 40% rate hike in the fare. back in 2012, the "t" tried to hike fares on the door-to-door service for the disabled but had to roll them back after pressure from advocates. there are other proposed changes that could also save the agency money. that includes allowing ride-sharing services like uber and lyft to transport disabled passengers for a savings of $16 million, more training to help disabled riders use the "t"which could save $11 million, or reducing the service area for
6:33 am
the ridefor $12 million. advocates say many who use the service consider it a critical lifeline. no decisions have been made. todd kazakiewich, wcvb, newscenter 5. >> i consider myself very lucky. i'm really happy to be here today, to be standing here right now. emily: only on 5, the everett high school football player who was attacked while breaking up a fight is back out on the field. he spoke to newscenter 5's mike lynch last night. and erika, he remembers the whole attack? erika: emily, he does. marvens fedna was stabbed in the back and the hand on halloween night. he says he faded in and out of consciousness on the way to mass general and prayed the entire time. the incident followed a playoff win he led as everett's starting quarterback. now more than two weeks later, he's back on the field with his teammates at practice. he tells our mike lynch he doesn't know who stabbed him as he tried to help his friends in a fight. marvens fedna: i felt it. so like my immediate reaction was to get out of there as fast as i could.
6:34 am
then once we were free, i just had them call for help. erika: fedna still has stitches in his back and a healing severed tendon on his thumb. but he says he's very grateful to be alive and looking forward to playing football with his teammates again. randy? randy: an apparent tragic end to the search for a missing woman. a body found in the woods in chelmsford is believed to be that of 67-year-old elga crespo. the lowell woman had been missing since october 25. the death is under investigation, but there are no signs of foul play. emily: newscenter5 on the opioid crisis. a disturbing trend at massachusetts hospitals. opioids and other prescription pills are going missing. the department of public health reports missing or stolen drugs are up 15% through august compared to all of last year. that's 863 cases of loss or tampering with drugs. the state is seeing gains in stopping the crisis. nearly 85% of physicians,
