hour. so it's a windy day. it's a cool one. it's a cloudy one. only making it really into the low to mid 40's for high temperatures and then tonight we drop back into the 20's and 30's i think we're going to clear the skies just a touch. there may be some areas of fog developing and then tomorrow we do it all over again with temperatures in the mid 40's to a few even upper 40's for highs. another chance for rain is going to come on thursday. it's also dealing with another coastal low that could bring a couple of showers and then friday we'll see some clouds. we're watching another system. that's a warm front. so with that is is going to actually do is bring in warmer air so we're in the mid 50's by friday, upper 50's by saturday and 60's. emily: it keeps getting better. olessa: 70's by monday? danielle: you're pushing your luck. olessa: good morning, everyone. so far it's a quiet start on the roads. that volume. there's a live look at the zakim and the leverett connector as

the other story though is the wind. we see wind gusts up to about 20 miles an hour now in plymouth. so it's going to be a breezy day and through the day in boston, we warm up only into the mid 40's. there could be a couple of showers, as i said, between 10:00 until 12:00 or so but those winds are breezy. it is cloudy everywhere. and it is cool through the day today. however, big changes are coming. a major warm-up is on the way. we'll talk about that in just a second. cloudy and breezy at the bus stop for the kiddos. on the ride home the same thing. let's look at the roads this morning. good morning, olessa. olessa: good morning, everyone. a like look outside. the zakim bridge picking up the rush-hour delays. let's get to the maps and check the rest of the ride. travel times as you head north 93 southbound is heavy into salem. then once from men theun down past das come road to wilmington. it stays slow to spot pond. more delays as you approach the leverett connector. watching an overheight vehicle
