in pittsfield. so again these wind chill values are going to be with us through the afternoon. in fact, as we go through the afternoon, really not going to warm up all that much. feeling more like the 20's and low 30's all day long. now we should see some sunshine i think later today, even though this morning we're waking up to a lot more clouds. even some folks waking up to a couple of light snow showers or flurries in southern new hampshire as well as in southern vermont. but a warm-up is on the way and good chance for some much-needed rain. the timeline ahead. doug? doug: danielle, thank you. breaking news. this is video just in of a close call in cambridge. a car crashed into the railing just off memorial drive near the longfellow bridge leaving it dangling over the charles river. everyone inside was able to get out okay. it's not clear why the driver lost control. sera: breaking overnight. there is a deal in the bitter battle setting off a firestorm between bernie sanders and hillary clinton. that comes just hours before the

pocketing cash. they set up surveillance cameras in the meriden post office after people complained their mail was being tampered with. police say kim smith was opening envelopes, taking out cash and gift cards, and using a glue sticks to reseal them. >> the minute she puts them on the table, she starts going through and sorting them and pulling out individual pieces of mail and holding it up to the light while she's feeling it with her fingers, manipulating the envelope with her fingers. when i think of stealing money from kids in their christmas cards and birthday cards, i see nothing but evil. doug: police say smith is a part-time, flexible employee meaning she travels from post office to post office as needed. other police departments are now investigating. sera: parishioners of a closed scituate church are taking their case to the country's highest court. members of st. frances cabrini will ask the u.s. supreme court to review a massachusetts judge's ruling that they have been trespassing since the church closed in 2004. the group of roman catholics have continued to occupy the

that is showing you just how strong these winds really are today, and they're going to be with us pretty much all day long. what a shot though. you can see winds are sustained in boston right now at 15 miles an hour. in worcester at 14 miles an hour. and look at pittsfield. sustained at 18 miles an hour. so that is making these temperatures in the 20's and 30's feel more like the teens and 20's. it feels like 15 degrees right now in pittsfield. bundle up. feeling more like 28 in worcester or excuse me 21 in worcester and 28 degrees in boston. so it's a chilly day. today temperatures only warm into the upper 30's and low 40's. we're going to have mostly cloudy skies to start. and then we'll see a lot more sunshine later today with those winds it feels more like the low 30's and upper 20's all day long. now it's associated with this cold front. you can see that back here. this cold front is stirring up those winds. they're going right over those

and lake erie. so, yes, lake-effect snow is happening. some of this is making its way as far east as our area. like in southern very month as well as southern new hampshire. we've had some reports of some light snow showers in jaffrey especially in southern vermont we've had even heavier snow showers there. as we go through the day today, what's going to happen is eventually we're going to see those skies start to clear out later this evening. however, with clear skies and the winds dropping back just a such, air temperaturewise we're going to drop overnight into the 20's in most locations so it's a chilly night and a chilly start to your sunday so make sure you are bundle up if you're headed out this evening or first thing tomorrow. and then through the day tomorrow, we're going to warm up into the upper 30's, low 40's. we'll have a lot more sunshine though and eventually these winds shift from the north and west to the south and west. so that is a warming wind.

for us. high pressure builds in giving us sunshine and then we watch this warm front you see here associated with our next system. bringing in clouds and warmer temperatures for monday. it's a mostly cloudy day on monday and very mild, very breezy and with that, we can't even rule out an isolated shower or two through the afternoon and evening. so rain is the big story as we head through the workweek. it's on the way up by midweek especially and even on christmas eve. now how are we going to get it in the form of some rain? that's because temperatures are going to have to warm up, right? that jetstream is going to lift back to the north and push away that cold air. that cold air retreats back into canada. for us, we are very mild. we're in the 50's monday, the 50's tuesday. right around 50 degrees on wednesday because we'll have clouds and a lot of rain around. and christmas eve, we could be flirting with 60 degrees in spots.

and still in the low 50's. doug and sera. sera: amazing, danielle. thank you. the time now is 8:18. time for some of the other stories we're tracking right now. doug: frank is following information as it comes in, including the president making a somber stop before his annual vacation to hawaii. frank snng doug and sera, the president and first lady had an emotional meeting with the loved ones of the 14 people who lost their lives earlier this month in the shooting rampage in san bernardino. after the evening visit, the president said those families represent the strength and the unity and the love that exists in this country. president: we have to remind ourselves of the overwhelming good that exists out there. if you met some of these folks, despite the pain and the heartache that they're feeling, they could not have been more inspiring. frank: the president left california for hawaii for his annual christmas getaway. he is expected to return to the white house in early january to

my stop & shop. danielle: welcome back. i'm meteorologist danielle vollmar. want to say hello to some students i saw earlier this week from lieutenant peter hanson elementary in canton. got to call to them a lot about the weather. they're very excited for winter although it doesn't feel like winter out there. this month of december we've

normal. however, today and tomorrow big changes are coming but as we head towards christmas eve and christmas day, we're talking about mild conditions with temperatures around 60 on christmas eve. doug and sera. doug: danielle, thank you. the new movie is taking a light sabre to the box office record books. sera: "the force awakens" was on track to make more than $100 million on opening day, according to studio estimates. that tops the last harry potter movie's take of $91.1 million, a record set in july 2011. it also makes the star wars flick the first triple-digit movie day ever. to be the biggest opening of all time, it has to beat jurassic world's take of $208.8 million. of course it's going to do that. it has the force. of course. doug: see what you did there. it will be in the rear-view mirror that $108. sera: i'm going to contribute. doug: we'll find out tomorrow what it was all about. sera: the f.d.a. is trying to

tanning beds. doug: the move dermatologists have been urging for years, "5 investigates" on the street with two boston cold case detectives. why the murder of an unknown girl nearly 1,500 miles away is hitting close to home. plus let's get outside. the cold temperatures not keeping the lobster boats at dock. no, sir. e, you have to bring them in. sera: look at those choppy waters. there is wind out there. danielle has more on that coming up. >> this is an editorial by wcvb-tv channel 5 president and general manager bill fine. bill fine: in just the few weeks since governor baker's pledge of much better service on the mbta, substantial problems are piling up. commuter trains are overcrowded with more limited seats than contracted for; a runaway train barreled down the red line; also, what looms as, a mistake in our mind, the elimination of late night "t" service; and on top of all those issues, some expansion plans are being

altogether. even a lack of snow can't help stem the tide of bad news. all of this indicates commuters are unlikely to see a well oiled, much-improved operation in the months ahead. we remain hopeful; but as we have said before, hope is not a strategy. the governor may take a hit on "t" issues, but he deserves more cooperation from the legislature and the medical community on his plans to deal with the opioid crisis. a public service campaign begun last summer has substantially increased awareness of the staggering extent of the problem, but the surge of abuse has not diminished. baker's plan to limit initial prescriptions of opioids to just a 72-hour supply for new patients is one of many ideas worthy of discussion. the initial reaction of lawmakers and doctors was unfavorable to that drastic step. but surely there is a middle ground between 72 hours and the frequent over-prescription of 30 to 90 days' worth of pills-- medication that often goes unused and is a potential source of supply for addicts whose growing number includes those

protect. the governor has signaled a strong willingness to discuss his proposal with all stakeholders and has an open mind to a mutually agreeable solution. he shouldn't be left hanging. this ongoing and still growing crisis demands forceful and imaginative action. rwhat if the holidays were about people again? rand the four-letter word that defined the season was l-o-v-e, and not s-a-l-e. r that' s the world t.j.maxx, marshalls and homegoods stores live in. where there' s no need for sales pbecause we offer amazing prices on thoughtful gifts everyday. rlet' s put more value on what really matters. r this season, bring back the holidays.

area, we're only going to warm up i think into the mid to upper 30's for high temperatures today. plus then you have to factor in those winds which are sustained anywhere from 10 to about 15 to even 17 miles an hour now on nantucket. and it's paging it feel more like the 20's and even the teens in spots this morning in pittsfield. so it is a cold start out there and they're not going to budge that much as we head through the afternoon. those winds stay pretty high and the air temperature stays pretty cold. as you look, we have a couple of light snow showers popping up on the maps in southern new hampshire. as well as southern vermont. this is associated with some lake-effect snow showers making their way all the way towards our area. big changes are coming. we'll talk when we could see near 60 degrees in the seven-day forecast ahead. sera. sera: thanks, danielle. breaking news this morning. take a look at this video of the aftermath of a wild crash in cambridge. a car careened into the railing

longfellow bridge leaving it dangling over the charles river. everyone inside was able to get out okay. it's not clear why the driver lost control. doug: here's what we're following right now on the eye. four people, including two children, are recovering after being hit by a car in lowell. police say the family was crossing fletcher street last night when they were hit. the father, who was pushing a stroller, rolled right up onto the windshield of the car. no word yet on if charges will be filed. sera: right now one person is dead after a shooting in roxbury. the victim is believed to be in his late teens. he was shot and killed on annunciation road last night. police are asking anyone with information to come forward. doug: don't get too anxious but the patriots say tom brady is questionable for tomorrow's game against the titans. he was sent home sick from practice yesterday. gronk was also a no-show, but we're told that was a personal matter. breaking overnight.

hillary clinton. sera: the eye's frank holland is tracking information as it comes in. frank: that deal comes after the democratic committee blocked the sanders campaign from getting access to voter information. the sanders camp sued the d.n.c. after the party denied that campaign access to a crucial voter database. that database is a massive list of voters' names, addresses, and past voting habits. the sanders campaign was accused of exploiting a software glitch that allowed them to access voter information collected by hillary clinton's team. the sanders' staffer responsible has been fired although he claims he did nothing wrong. that deal also comes just hours before sanders, clinton, and martin o'malley are set to take the debate stage in new hampshire. this is the only democratic debate scheduled by the d.n.c. in the granite state. and analysts say there is a lot at stake. >> there's a great deal at stake this is the beginning of the closing arguments. this is that time they have to make a connection to voters. this is their last opportunity

freeze when everybody pays attention to a bunch of other things for the next ten days. frank: you can watch the democrats debate tonight right here on channel 5. coverage starts at 8:00. doug? doug: on the republican side, several candidates are making swings through new hampshire today. chris christie is kicking off a bus tour. jeb bush is holding five town hall meetings today starting in contoocook and ending in nashua. and lindsey graham wraps up his granite state trip with several stops throughout the state. this image posted by the ben carson campaign is going viral this morning. the facebook post just shows the g.o.p. candidate showing a "merry christmas" sign, but it gained thousands of likes in just hours. at last check it has grown to more than half a million. carson is now the most popular presidential candidate on facebook. sera: there could be seven questions on the ballot in massachusetts next year. secretary of state william galvin passed those questions along to the legislature for consideration last night. they include

recreational marijuana, an additional tax on anyone making over a million dollars, and repealing common core education standards in schools. a chinese national is facing sentencing after being convicted of exporting equipment to iran that could be used to help iran's nuclear program. sihai cheng pleaded guilty in boston on friday. prosecutors say he and two other people conspired with others in china and iran to export the equipment manufactured at a company in massachusetts. that company is not a target of the investigation. doug: "5 on the opioid crisis" this morning and a grim new record. nearly 50,000 americans died of drug overdoses last year. most of those deaths involved painkillers like oxycontin according to the c.d.c. it's also twice as many deaths as the nation saw less than 15 years ago. sera: right now donations are pouring in for a milton family

will stand arm in arm with muslim-americans, and together we will get past these troubling times. lalarulch malik: honest to god, it brought tears to my eyes. janet: why? lalarulch malik: because he meant it from his heart. salma kazmi: it was a really kind and generous thing to do-- to reach out to the community at this time. i think there's a lot of fear and concern. yusufi vali: for him to speak as a jewish-american and speak about the history of, you know, discrimination and just say how he stood with us i thought was deeply affirming. grateful for the personal outpouring of thanks from so many but declined to answer any media questions saying he did not want to politicize his appearance. his reaffirmation that laws protect everyone was juxtaposed to the message in today's sermon. shaykh yasir fahmy: we have to turn off the news, turn off the noise, turn off this constant bombardment of thoughts and ideas, and just be recommitted.

wcvb, newscenter 5. doug: a nice gesture especially this time of the year. a meeting with santa going viral. sera: the shopping trip one little girl will never forget.

doug: welcome back. the time is 8:42. and time for some of the stories making economic headlines this saturday. sera: frank is back with that. frank: stocks finished down on friday continuing a week-long trend. here is a look at the numbers. the dow dropping 367 points to finish at 17,128. the nasdaq falling 79 points. the s&p 500 dipping 36 points. falling oil prices and the fed's decision to raise interest rates for the first time in a decade viewed as major factors in the decline. a new contract between uber and its drivers will not stop a

ride-share company. a federal judge ruled those drivers suing the company are exempt from the agreement uber sent drivers last week. that agreement has a clause blocking drivers who are technically contract employees from joining the current class-action lawsuit or any future ones. if uber loses the case, they could have to pay full employee benefits to as many as 100,000 drivers. nearly six million people are now enrolled in health insurance through the affordable care act. that's compared to 3 to 4 million at this same time last year. earlier in the week, federal health officials extended the enrollment deadline because interest was running so high. in the week ahead the report on existing home sales for november comes out on tuesday. and the new home sales report on wednesday. a short week for wall street with the christmas holiday on friday. frank holland, wcvb, newscenter 5. >> now your storm team 5 forecast with meterologist danielle vollmar. sera: we've been so spoiled this

we really really have. it sounds like december is back. danielle: it definitely feels like december out there. if you look behind, you can see the wave s are a little choppy out there. if you're taking the boat on the water today, it will be rough. i've heard some reports actually around nantucket of rough seas. i want to talk about why this is happening. it's because we have really strong winds. the winds are gusting upwards of 35 miles an hour now in pittsfield. up to about 25 miles an hour on nantucket. so some strong wind gusts are keeping that temperature, you know, down pretty much. we're talking 52 degrees for your high yesterday in boston. 49 was your high yesterday in worcester. and now look, today only 40 in boston. 37 in worcester. so about 12 degrees cooler than this time yesterday or through the afternoon. the wind chill values are pretty cold at this point. 15 degrees is what it feels like in pittsfield. it feels like 28 in boston. nantucket. as we go through the next 12

warm up that much because we keep the winds in forecast pretty much all day long so it feels more like the upper 20's, low 30's through the day. we are going to see more sunshine later today, too. the reason we have the winds, we have a very strong cold front. it's also creating and generating lake-effect snow showers coming off ontario as well as erie. some of those snow showers making it closer to our viewing area. like, for example, in jaffrey, in keene, you've picked up a couple of light snow showers there and through parts of southern vermont. i anticipate more through the morning hours. then that should shut off once we head through the afternoon. and tonight those sky s are going to actually clear out which will allow those temperatures to drop back into the 20's overnight for pretty much everywhere so it's a chilly tonight. make sure you bundle up. first thing tomorrow morning as well. and then tomorrow during the day, upper 30's, low 40's.

from the north and west to the south and west. that is a warmer wind. so milder air will eventually work its way in. not necessarily for tomorrow. tomorrow is still a cold day but high pressure turns those winds from the south, also brings us lots of sunshine tomorrow. and then we watch this warm front and area of low pressure that is going to bring in, first, some clouds on monday but also milder temperatures through the afternoon. and maybe a few hit-or-miss showers in the late afternoon into the early evening hours. better chances for rain though holding off until we get towards midweek. so low chance for rain monday and tuesday. better chances coming on wednesday. we could really use the rain down over ten inches for the year now in boston. now for sunday, i do want to talk about sunday because the patriot s are taking on the tennessee titans at home at gillette at 1:00. if you are headed out to the game, make sure you dress in layers as it will be 9 degrees but with the wind feeling like the low 30's.

what you dress for. i will be watching from the comfort of my own home. that being said, as we head through the workweek, we start to warm up back into the 50's. most people are having off this holiday week. it will be near 60 though by christmas eve. doug and sera. boston police hunting down new clues in a decades-old murder mystery, and "5 investigates" is hitting the streets with them. doug: karen anderson reports more evidence in the decades-old cold case in baltimore is pointing right here to boston. sgt. det. bill doogan: i grew up in this neighborhood. karen: for these two boston homicide detectives, the case of an unidentified girl found drugged and tortured nearly 40 years ago 1,500 miles away is now personal. sgt. det. bill doogan: the tip that came in to baltimore indicated that their jane doe came from forbes street. karen: that tip followed "5 investigates" stories in november about the 1976 murder of a girl found near the woodlawn cemetery outside of baltimore. the tipster believed she had

jamaica plain, went to a catholic school, and grew up with her five siblings here on forbes street-- the same street where boston police sergeant bill doogan and detective jack cronin both grew up. sgt. det. bill doogan: what was going through my mind is who can i call? who do i know? karen: they're now using their hometown knowledge and old-fashioned police work-- sgt. det. bill doogan: foot work, gum shoe stuff. karne: --checking old records including from the blessed sacrament school. as connections to boston keep building, a grassy bag pulled over the girl's head and stuffed in her throat was sold in only five stores all in massachusetts. she was carrying two keys-- one labeled fitchburg. and recent high-tech tests of pollen on her clothes found it was rare and could only come arnold arboretum in jamaica plain. a place for young people to go and hang around. they'd do all kinds of things-- bike ride, play sports. karen: this girl, now known as woodlawn jane doe, has a home-made tattoo that may have

for the jamaica plain neighborhood. tattoos like that not uncommon at the time, according to sergeant doogan. sgt. det. bill doogan: a lot of people had these home-made tattoos that they used to do with a pin and ball point pen. you can never say 100%, but it's looking more and more like this is a j.p. girl. karen: despite their efforts so far, they haven't been able to determine her real name. if alive today, she would have been between 55 and 65 years old. sgt. det. cronin: hopefully someone will know something and we can give her identity back. sgt. det. bill doogan: i really think that this girl was in jamaica plain. how she got down to baltimore we don't know. and we won't know until we figure out who she is. karen: state police as well as the center for missing and exploited children are also helping with this investigation. anyone who thinks they may have any kind of information to help identify this girl is asked to call baltimore county or boston police. karen anderson, "5 investigates." sera: patriots fans are looking for number 12 this morning. the patriots say tom brady is

against the titans. brady missing practice is almost unheard of. so, for the pats to send the q.b. home yesterday means he probably felt pretty bad. rob gronkowski also missed practice yesterday. his absence was not related to injury or illness; it was a personal matter. doug: the bruins notched their 10th win in 14 games. rookie center frank vatrano came up big with three goals for his first career hat trick as the b's faced the penguins. patrice bergeron scored twice. the bruins are just three points behind the atlantic-division leading canadiens. not so good for the celtics. the c's led the atlanta hawks by two after three quarters, but that's where it ended. the hawks piled it on outscoring boston 22-4 in the fourth. 109-101 the final at the garden. to santa. doug: big kids, too. present company included. but one little girl's message is going viral this morning.
