8:18 am
2-mile-per-hour wind gusts in provincetown. so we do have strong winds although it is not as windy as yesterday either. that is creating a bit of a wind chill. so it still feels like 28 degrees in worcester. it still feels like 27 in concord. and 29 degrees in lawrence. so if you're headed out the door right now, grab the winter coat or you will be pretty cold. now as we go through the afternoon, the temperature should warm up into the upper 40's in worcester. low 50's in boston. mid 50's along the south shore as well as the cape and the islands. those winds stay pretty strong. now high pressure is dominating our weather. which means we will stay dry. we have fair weather over us. but there will be some clouds that move on in. and then we're watching this frontal boundary. it will be a back-door cold front for tomorrow. and it will actually bring down the temperatures behind it. so for today, notice the clouds starting to increase as we head through the afternoon.
8:19 am
so we will see a lot of sunshine with some clouds just like yesterday. and then tonight with some clouds around, temperatures won't fall as much as they did last night. so we'll be in the 30's in the merrimack valley. 38 in worcester. 43 in boston. and 49 degrees on nantucket. and then for tomorrow, we'll see the temperatures bump up into the lower 50's and maybe even a few mid 50's. so what happens on the future cast? we start to dry things out. here comes that back-door cold front on monday bringing in cooler air in the northeast breeze for tuesday. but it is dry. in fact, we are dry not only today but also monday, tuesday, and even wednesday. but the rain chances are going up as we head towards thursday and friday. so we can really use that rain. now here is how it is coming. it's coming in the way of a cold front on thursday but this is going to be a slow-moving one. so what happens is we start out
8:20 am
the rain showers move in by thursday afternoon. notice how slow it moves across so all day friday, there could be some rain showers around as well. and the winds will kind of pick up with this cold front too so it will be a bit breezy out there. notice the temperatures are mild, in the upper 50's. we may even push near 60 degrees on thursday. and then we turn colder by next weekend. j.c. and antoinette. antoinette: danielle, thank you. time right now is 8:20. a check of the stories we're following right now. jc: an off-duty police officer shoots a stabbing suspect at washington's union station. police say it started around 8:30 last night between two people who knew each other. they say the off-duty baltimore county officer told a man to drop the knife, and the suspect refused. the officer reportedly fired several times, striking the suspect in the hand and head. no word on his condition right now. a woman was struck in the leg with a bullet but is expected to be okay. antoinette: trouble for kia. the company is recalling thousands of vehicles, warning drivers of a problem with

pushing and slapping his wife. one afternoon colicchio and lisano visited a nearby nursing home for half an hour. and when we called the clerk's office-- is ann colicchio in?-- we were told colicchio was unavailable. the truth is she didn't show up for work that entire day. you said you've been dealing with a lot of family issues; but when we followed you, that didn't seem to be the case. we have you going to new hampshire for the day. we have you with mr. lisano on several days. we're just looking for some answers. away from this court has been on my time. pam wilmot: how do you do your job? kathy: pam wilmot heads up the government watchdog group common cause massachusetts. pam wilmot: why are state employees-- any government official-- allowed to have 60 vacation days and unlimited sick time? that's just ridiculous. kathy: do you think you can be effective not being at court? colicchio: i'm not aware of any
8:47 am
issues with doing my work. kathy: we don't know exactly what days the clerk took off because the trial court doesn't have to hand over any information to the public. we tracked ann colicchio again after we told her about our investigation and found she was working full days. kathy curran, "5 investigates." >> now your storm team 5 forecast with meterologist danielle vollmar. danielle: lots of sunshine out there over boston, but don't let the sunshine fool you. it's a chilly start out there. but a milder afternoon is on tap for today. it continues to be breezy but not as windy as yesterday. and we will see a milder finish to the workweek. now in terms of the high temperatures, we hit a high of 41 in worcester yesterday. 47 in boston. today we're going for a high of boston. that's about a 10-degree temperature jump up from yesterday. and the temperature trend over
8:48 am
we'll be mild sunday and monday. much cooler by tuesday due to a back-door cold front. and then we start to warm right back up on wednesday. and finish out the workweek on a very warm note getting near 60 degrees by thursday. now this morning if you're headed out the door right now, we're starting in the 30's and 40's. it's 30 in keene. 30 in orange. 40 in boston and 47 on nantucket. so i would grab a coat because those winds are anywhere from 10-20 miles an hour sustained, making it still feel like the 30's and even 20's in some spots. highs today will warm up into the upper 40's in worcester to low 50's. low 50's to mid 50's in boston. and mid 50's on the cape and the islands. we have high pressure dominating , and the big difference today is the wind is out of the west. which is a warmer wind. now we're watching this frontal boundary to the north. this is going to be the back-door cold front. for the day today, it will be a
8:49 am
notice on the timeline there's clouds kind of hanging around. they're high and thin. but we're still going to keep them in the forecast. for tonight as well. temperatures drop back into the 30's overnight and low 40's in boston. mid 40's on the cape. and then for tomorrow, we're going to warm up into the low to mid 50's with more sunshine coming in the forecast. so that is the big trend. we're mild both sunday and monday. then on monday afternoon, watch what happens. we have this frontal boundary drop in. it changes the winds to the north-northeast. and that cools our temperatures back. so much so that on tuesday we start out in the 30's and even 20's maybe in spots. and we warm up only in the mid to upper 40's for highs. but those winds out of the north and east at about 5-10. 52 degrees on wednesday. then look ahead for thursday and friday. thursday i went conservative with the upper 50's but some models are indicating we could be near 60 if not above in some locations. with that comes some much-needed rain.

jc: time to turn our attention back home. i will say seeing the temperature go up, it's 43. we're in the 40's. antoinette: invigorator out there. danielle: it won't be so bad today once we get to the afternoon. had morning though it's been kind of raw with a wind making it feel like the 20's and 30's. actually started out in the 20's in a lot of spots. air temperaturewise. it was 23 in keene this morning. it's 24 in orange. 25 nashua. and 27 in bedford. but now as you look over boston, it is currently 43 degrees. however, with the wind out of the west at about 11 miles an hour, it feels more like 37 degrees outside. so still feeling like the 30's. if you're headed out right now, i would grab a coat. you notice we also have some wind gusts upwards of 30 miles an hour now on nantucket. we can expect that through the day today. now yesterday we have wind gusts in excess of 50 miles an hour. not expecting that today.
9:16 am
the west at 10-20 sustained. that is still making it feel like 30 in worcester, like 33 degrees in orange. and like 33 up in portsmouth. for. that wind chill value. now through the afternoon, we're going to warm up, i think, into the low 50's in worcester as well as in boston. mid 50's even along the south shore and the north shore. we'll look for a mix of sun and clouds as high pressure dominates our weather. the big thing today is the winds west. it's a westerly wind. that is actually a milder wind for us. then we're watching this frontal boundary up to the north. it's going to be a back-door cold front coming through tomorrow. that's actually going to usher in colder air for tuesday. for the day today, however, there is going to be some high, thin clouds out there. there will be breaks in clouds too. we'll call it partly sunny through the day. tonight it will be partly cloudy. temperatures dropping back into the 30's and 40's but not as cold as this morning for
9:17 am
tomorrow morning. and then tomorrow we'll do it all over again with a lot of sunshine though. temperatures should warm into the low to mid 50's. now we want to talk about that back-door cold front because it does come through on the day of monday. it brings in a northeast wind for tuesday. it is dry in nature. not necessarily seeing any rain from this one. but we are going to see the rain chances go up as we head towards thursday and friday from a cold front. so i'm going to show you that. we could really use that because we're down over eight inches for the year now in boston and down over seven inches for the year in worcester. so that cold front is coming on thursday. here is the timing. it starts out dry i think in the morning but then through the afternoon the rain chances go up. it lingers through friday and pretty much all day friday. it looks like some of the latest models giving us at least an inch of rain which will be beneficial. with that rain is also going to
9:18 am
we're talking upper 50's, maybe pushing near 60 degrees on thursday. mid 50's on friday but don't get too uses to it. we're back in the 40's by saturday. j.c. and antoinette. antoinette: danielle, thank you. 9:19. a check of the stories we're following right now. jc: an off-duty police officer shoots a stabbing suspect at washington's union station. police say it started around 8:30 last night between two people who knew each other. they say the off-duty baltimore county officer told a man to drop the knife, and the suspect refused. the officer reportedly fired several times, striking the suspect in the hand and head. no word on his condition right now. a woman was struck in the leg with a bullet but is expected to be okay. antoinette: trouble for kia. the company is recalling thousands of vehicles, warning drivers of a problem with steering controls. kia says the adhesive used to secure a pinion in the soul models could separate, and the driver will lose control.

9:31 am
the boston marathon bombings and weekend. in fact, on the street in front of the french consulate we've seen police cars parked here for added security. just one example. again also at the td garden yesterday for the bruins' game increased security there. the garden also lit up in the colors of the french flag as a sign of solidarity with the victims there. as the devastation sets in around the world, experts are trying to comprehend how this could happen and why. boston college associate professor jonathan laurence says france is a target partly because of its large muslim minority and its history. professor: france-- because of its position in our world as a former colonial power-- is susceptible to this sort of attack. because of its insistence on certain rules of public religion and in particular their banning of the head scarf and the niqab in public spaces, they have
9:32 am
attracted the negative attention of terrorist groups for years. nneka: dr. laurence has written extensively about the integration of islam into french culture. he says that isis has been particularly successful at recruiting young french muslims and turning them into terrorists. live at the french consulate in boston, nneka faison, wcvb, newscenter 5. jc: commitment 2016. the second debate of the democratic presidential candidates began with a moment of silence to stand in solidarity with the people of france. our pam cross shows us they faced a lot of questions and a bit of friction over issues around foreign policy and national security. pam: from silence to opening statements. >> leading the world, this country will rid our planet of this barbarous organization called isis. >> we need to have a resolve that will bring the world together to root out the kind of
9:33 am
radical jihadist ideology that motivates organizations like isis. >> we must be able to work collaboratively with others. we must anticipate these threats before they happen. this is the new sort of challenge, the new sort of threat. pam: civilized sparks began during discussion of how and why isis has grown. >> libya is now a mess. syria is a mess. iraq is a mess. afghanistan is a mess. as americans, we have shown ourselves to have the greatest military on the face of the planet, but we are not so very good at anticipating threats. >> we're spending over $600 billion a year on the military. yet significantly less than 10% of that money is used to be fighting international terrorism. >> we are at war with violent extremism. we are at war with people who use their religion for purposes
9:34 am
of power and oppression. and, yes, we are at war with those people. but i don't want us to be painting with too broad a brush. pam: national security only one topic during the two-hour debate. they also dealt with several economic issues-- minimum wage, oversight of wall street, and medicare among other things. i'm pam cross, wcvb, newscenter 5. antoinette: republicans on the campaign trail condemned the paris terror attacks slamming isis and president obama. saying now is the time to take on isis. >> what's going on is terrible. >> if we do not act, this terrorism, this violence, will come to america. >> i think american involvement should be trying to eliminate it. >> it seems to me that the craziest thing we could do is to take people who live in a desert who don't speak our language who don't understand our culture and bring them to minnesota during the winter. >> barak obama and hillary clinton under her watch decided

jc: and a live look outside the french consulate in boston where people are stopping by to pay tribute. as you can see the flowers that are placed there, the signs in support of the parisiennes after the massacre that happened there on friday. we have several tributes being held around the state today. those include a vigil on the boston common this afternoon to be attended by mayor marty walsh and governor charlie baker. a mass will also be held this morning at the cathedral of the holy cross in the city's south end. >> now your storm team 5 forecast with meterologist danielle vollmar. danielle: good morning. well it's a cool start out there this morning but lots of sunshine as you look over boston. it will be milder this afternoon. it does continue to be on the breezy side although not as windy as yesterday. and there is a milder end to the workweek in store.
9:40 am
we could be above 60 degrees by thursday. in terms of the temperature yesterday 41 was the high. in worcester 47. in boston today we're going tore a high of 51 in worcester and 55 in boston. that means about 10 degrees warmer than yesterday afternoon. and the temperature trend is tomorrow. there will be a back-door cold front cooling temperatures back on tuesday. and then we're milder again on wednesday or at least where we should be for this time of year which is around 52 degrees. right now the big story is these winds. they're gusting upwards of 30 miles an hour now. on nantucket. you will feel the westerly breeze out there anywhere from 10 to about 20 miles an hour through the afternoon. but it is out of the west today. so that means temperatures will warm up into the lower to even mid 50's through the afternoon in boston. it will be a mix of sun and clouds today so it will be in the low 40's or excuse me low 50's in worcester.
9:41 am
low to mid 50's, i think, on the cape as well as the islands. high pressure really dominating our weather but we're watching this frontal boundary up to the north. it will act as a back-door cold front tomorrow and bring in cooler air. however, it will be dry when it comes across our region. so here is what it looks like on the future cast for the day today. notice we're going to kind of hang on to clouds throughout the day. the high, thin ones there will be breaks of sun and there will be clouds. there will be a partly sunny kind of day. then tonight with some clouds around, temperatures will not drop as much as last night. we'll be in the 30's and 40's for overnight lows. and then tomorrow since we start out milder, we warm up into the low to mid 50's yet again. notice those winds though turning to the north and eventually the north and east as that frontal boundary comes across our area. so here is how it all happens and plays out on monday. notice it drops on in bringing a northeast wind but notice it clears the skies out too so we will have dry conditions and
9:42 am
sunshine for tuesday although it will be a touch cooler. we're dry not only tuesday but also on wednesday. and then the rain chances go up on thursday and friday. we could really use that rain since we're down over eight inches for the year in boston and down over search inches for the year in worcester. so again we talk about being colder on tuesday. just how cold will it be? in your area? well, upper 40's. 46 boston. 44 though only in worcester. we'll see a high of about 50 degrees on nantucket. then the jetstream is going to lift. that is going to be the big player in this. pulling back the cool air back into canada bringing in mild air for us. and then we're going to watch the chances for showers coming on thursday from that cold front. it comes really thursday afternoon, i think, into friday but it's a very slow-moving front. with it we'll get a good dosing of some rain and also some wind and mild temperatures so if you like that, we'll be in the upper 50's, maybe pushing 60 degrees
9:43 am
mid 50's on friday. and then much cooler on saturday. j.c.? jc: danielle, thank you. the patriots take on the new york giants today. security expected to be increased at metlife stadium in new jersey. the pats looking to continue their undefeated streak. kickoff is at 4:25 this afternoon. and make sure to stick with channel 5 for monday night football. the patriots squaring off against rex ryan and the buffalo bills on november 23. our coverage begins at 8:00 with our sportscenter 5 countdown to the kickoff show live from gillette stadium. antoinette: sportscenter 5 heads to historic everett stadium for a special high 5 this week. jc: a team, overcoming uncertainty and grief. mike lynch shows us their magical win, and a big gesture that released a tide of joy. mike: the pregame message was simple-- win tonight and return to everett with the game ball for their teammate who was back home

suffered on halloween. the crimson tide faced a tall task-- winning a play-off game at peabody after a turbulent week that ended with quarterback marvens fedna being released from the hospital. one teammate actually wore marvens's number 9 in the game which looked dim until everett reached deep inside and began their comeback. this touchdown sprint with 5.5 minutes remaining brought everett within two points. then with 14 ticks remaining, everett won it for marvens. after celebrating on the field, the crimson tide-- cheerleaders as well as the band-- boarded three buses to complete the evening's mission. coach: the bus ride home was very loud. >> it was a pretty fun bus ride. pretty fun bus ride. >> the bus ride home last week was crazy. mike: awaiting the bus was marvens fedna who had been transported to the high school in a police cruiser for the celebration of his young life. >> marvens!
