but the good news is our precipitation will be in the form of rain. we're on the warmer side of things. we got lucky with this one if you don't love the snow. if you love the snow, winter is is many coulding. we'll get move of it. let's talk about that area of low pressure. you see it has moved up toward canada and provided snow for areas of the great lakes back through western new york. even northern new england getting some snow showers out of this. but for us this morning, we have the cold front crossing bringing us a couple of hit-or-miss showers to start the day. what we're going concentrate on is this area of low pressure near the carolinas. this will ride along the front. we're going to have to watch how close this gets to determine where that rain shield will cut off because some areas will pick up a lot of heavy rain especially later on this evening and through the overnight. i do think it's mainly the cape and the islands getting in on this although parts of southeastern mass may get some too. notice some showers starting to break out in the region and heavier downpours moving towards

moving into western mass, moving towards worcester county. so we're going to watch that for you all morning long. basically what is going to happen is rain chances on the way up through the morning and really into the afternoon and i think that area of low pressure starts bringing us heavier rain bands after, say, 2:00 or so. so, if you have things to do, i would do them sooner than later especially the farther south and east you live of boston. now north and west you're not really going to get in on a lot of this action. it will taper off early monday morning but the cape and the islands could still have some lippingerring showers. the big story behind this though is that push of cold air. future cast. notice a couple scattered showers around 8:00 or 9:00. scattered showers. maybe even western mass getting a little break of sun out there by about lunchtime. but watch what happens. you see how these showers start to blossom especially, say, boston and points south and east. and i do think, worcester, you could be in on this depending on

but it continues through the evening. notice we start getting into the deeper yellows and oranges through the overnight showers-- hours. that's going to continue. notice it is trying to turn maybe some of this rain over to some mixed precipitation as temperatures start to drop. not so sure i would buy into that yet. it will have to determine just how heavy that precipitation comes down. and just how cold we can get that air in. if we can, we may get a couple wet snow flakes. i think that's mainly up through southern new hampshire or something like that. as far as how much rain, one to two inches looks likely along the cape and the islands but the farther north and west you go, you're not picking up as much. we could really use that rain since we're down near nine inches now in boston. right now this morning, if you're stepping outside though, wondering what the weather is like, it's in the 30's and even 40's. for today, it's a mild day on tap. we're going to warm up into the upper 50's some some locations like the south shore. low to mid 50's in boston and the north shore and parts of merrimack valley.

then look at the push of cold air coming in tonight. we're dropping back into the 20's and even 30's. that's why i'm saying if we still have lingering showers, there could be that changeover. likely. on monday look at these high degrees. a lot of us may stay in the 30's through the day. you want to pull out that winter gear in you're headed out to gillette stadium for the pats game. they're taking on the bills. bundle up. wind chill values will be in the teens. if you're watching from the comfort of your own home, it will be on channel 5 at 8:30. back in the 50's by thanksgiving. antoinette: watching from home sounds like a good idea, danielle. time is 5:18. someof the stories happening right now. frank: minneapolis police are upset and concerned about protests following a deadly police shooting, protesters have been outside of the police headquarters for days demonstrating against last sunday's shooting of jamar clark.

rating. >> now sportscenter 5 with bob halloran. bob: good morning, everyone. even on ice, tuukka rask could feel the heat. back-up goalie winning four of his five starts and giving up a goal a game less than rask. it was time for tuukka rask. he delivered with his second shutout of the year against toronto last night at the garden. tuukka rask was the hockey version of the pitchers' duel. boast guys pitching shutouts deep into the third period. that was his best. 3:43 to go in the claim. chara unload from close range. no way for reimer to top that one. marchand with the empty netter at long range. they won 2-0. they'll play at toronto tomorrow night. fenway park home of the fighting irish taking on boston college. they did a good job getting ready for some football. here is a costly mistake by notre dame. john johnson with the easy pick

and on this day "nudie" a kind of naked ravioli-- scandalous-- made with three simple ingredients. chef: a pound of ricotta, a cup of all purpose flour, and one egg. that's it. erika: maybe add some salt and a little parmesan cheese. chef: you want to work it as little a possible, and then we're just going to really simply roll it out. erika: cut into pieces and boil for two minutes. chef henry then gets fancy. chef: these are maitaki or "hen of the wood" mushrooms. erika: some fortified wine. salt and pepper. chef: and an irresponsible amount of butter. we're not doing healthy. all right? erika: delicious. they have a coffee bar area set to open next month. they hope to be open 18 out of 24 hours a dayto really become southie's "third space." antoinette: good for people with hours like ours. frank: absolutely.

as well as in boston. now today it is in the form of rain. the showers that do come through. because temperatures will be in the upper 40's, low to mid 50's and a few upper 50's along the south shore and cape. what happens is this cold front triggers showers early in the day and heavier, steadier rain comes in due to that area of low pressure that has develops along the cold front. notice there is going to be a sharp cut-off in terms of precipitation so if you're on the edge of it, you may not see anything at all once we get towards this evening. by monday morning, things are starting to clear out really nicely. we're going to turn really cold. in fact, the coldest air we have seen thus far this season is moving in. these are your high temperatures for tomorrow. we're talking upper 30's, low 40's. as you can imagine, by tomorrow evening temperatures will be dropping into the 20's. with those winds it's going to feel like winter. antoinette and frank.

re-offend. the band played at the center's signature $275-a-plate gala. according to financial records, it's just part of the millions in donations and grants pouring in each year. in may the center began a $32 million renovation. the project will modernize the century-old building and create an additional 35 permanent apartments for veterans in need. mccawley: the veterans live here for as long as it's necessary for us to help them get into permanent, independent living. kathy: this is where hundreds of homeless veterans sleep at night. here's where they'll be staying in the future. kelly: you look into the future, but did you really have to sacrifice us for that? kathy: as far as the constant bed-bug issue, the center plans to buy special bed-bug-resistant mattresses to help with the problem. the renovation is supposed to be completed in about a year. kathy curran, "5 investigates." >> now your storm team 5 forecast with meterologist

danielle vollmar. danielle: good morning. well, we're watching the chances for rairch are going to be on the way up as we go through the day. i want to show you this though first. the impact looks like this. it's a medium chance for the morning hours. it becomes high once we get past 2:00 today for some heavy bands of rain. now it's all going to be where it sets up though. some areas may be out of it. we may stay actually dry through the later half of the afternoon and evening. and there will be some lingering showers for the cape and the islands to start the day on monday but then we're going to cool down and see a lot of sunshine by the afternoon. it's all this cold front this morning that is triggering some initial showers, but we're watching this area of low pressure. it's going to ride along the front. depending on how close it comes to our area will depend on where that rain band really sets up for the heaviest amounts. as far as what's happening right now though there's a couple of sprinkles through parts of worcester county. heavier downpours near the south coast of rhode island pushing in

we also have even some snow showers ongoing in parts of northern new hampshire as well as pushing into parts of northern maine. and you can see these showers right here. they're pushing now into the south shore. they will be with us through the next couple of hours. that's when the future cast indicates. say, by lunchtime notice though western mass seeing some breaks even in the cloud deck. but showers will be happening for the cape and the islands. and then here comes that heavier band of showers to really line up and start to fire up through the afternoon. notice, i think, it really is boston and points south and east for the heavier downpours but worcester county i think you could get in on this and notice that there is that edge so anywhere north and west may just stay cloudy but not necessarily see the heavier amounts of rain. there is this indication that some of this when we get towards past midnight or so could flip over to some mixed precipitation because temperatures will be dropping throughout the evening and into the overnight but it

get that to happen. i think most of us just see some showers or some heavier rain bands. the heaviest rain the cape and the islands could see over an inch of rain. notice i do include worcester in seeing at least some showers. it's a showery sunday turning to heavier rain tonight. much cooler for your monday and a warm-up is coming just in time for thanksgiving. we're starting out the day this morning in the 30's and even 40's in spots. 54 on block island. 47 on nantucket. so there's that milder air temperatures today warming up into the low to mid 50's and then tonight the temperatures really drop off into 20's and even 30's. and then tomorrow these are your high temperatures. 30's. patriots game. the good news is even though the coolest air mass all season arrives for the beginning of the week, we turn milder by wednesday afternoon. as that jetstream lifts above us and pushes that cold air back into canada where it belongs so

it is a mild thanksgiving on tap , mild for black friday as well for all you shoppers. it looks like our shower chances hold off after today until next saturday. frank? antoinette: i'll take it from here, danielle. thank you. it's 5:49. checking more stories happening right now. frank: investigators in new zealand are looking for answers after a helicopter loaded with tourists crashes into a glacier. right now crews are trying to recover the bodies of the seven victims killed in the crash. four tourists from britain and two from australia were killed along with the pilot from new zealand. investigators says the weather may have played a role in the three new cases of the deadly ebola virus have popped up in the diagnoses come more than two months after health officials declared the west african nation disease-free, two family members and a chief medical officer tested positive for the disease. officials aren't sure how they contracted ebola. antoinette: a new fertility test may help women make key the test is designed to warn women if they are at risk of running out of eggs. one in 10 women suffer from a

ovarian aging. that means they can become infertile at a younger-than- expected age. the screening test can detect a woman's risk for developing the condition. frank: boston shuts out the it was a big night for boston captain zdeno chara and brad marchand. chara scored late in the third period followed by an empty-net goal by marchand in the final seconds, 2-0 the final. the bruins and leafs meet again tomorrow in toronto. frank: "chronicle" uncovers picturesque gem out in western mass. a lieive look right now at the city of boston. 36 degrees. chilly start to this sunday morning. danielle vollmar has your forecast and the patriots game for this holiday week.
