narrator: let's put this political promise to the test. ayotte: i've been an independent, strong voice for new hampshire. narrator: then why does kelly ayotte still support donald trump for president? independent minded republicans across america put principle ahead of party and said no to trump. but not kelly ayotte. she says she still supports trump. ayotte: an independent, strong voice... narrator: if she's so independent, why is she still supporting trump? disclaimer: independence usa pac is responsible for the content of mike: we have a shot at rain to end your weekend.

too early, because the rain isn't going to be moving in until late tonight. we have clear skies this morning. going to be a beautiful sunrise. you notice the cloud cover thickening up. you have showers to the west. i wish this was a lot more rain. looks like we could see rain overnight, showers, maybe a rumble of thunder and one or two may get a downpour out of the whole thing. what's the timeline? between now and noon, sunny, but the overcast starts to work in. this afternoon, in the western part of the state, could be a pop-up shower, but that's where it will stay. through 4:00, moving in from the west at 10:00 tonight. start to march its way across the state. not arriving into boston until probably just before sunrise tomorrow morning. then we could have downpours during the early part of the morning commute. so for today, mostly sunny skies this morning. we'll go to clouds this afternoon. and the other thing you'll notice today, humidity is coming back up. as the humidity comes up, the clouds come in and the rain overnight tonight. wait until you see chilly temperatures coming toward

moments. doug: we're following several breaking stories overnight. antoinette: first, out of east boston, one woman is dead, two women injured after a crash on route 1a southbound. it happened around 2:30 this morning. the highway there shut down near boardman street. state police tell us this may not reopen for several hours. boston ems says it's not clear at this point what exactly happened. the crash took place near the court yard marriott there. boston police have been talking to several dorchester, a section of boston police are investigating after a woman and two men were shot on stratton street. boston ems telling us the woman was taken to boston medical center with serious injuries. the two men, less seriously hurt. antoinette: two kids are in the hospital after being pulled from a swimming pool during a party in lowell. the kids, preschool age, were flown to boston hospitals. it's not clear how they're doing this morning. doug: boston firefighters are

reignite in west roxbury. they spent the night watching for flare-ups after the four-alarm fire broke out yesterday. we're hearing nobody was hurt. antoinette: a teacher is in trouble, accused of having inappropriate conduct with a student. it happened at narragansett regional high school. the eyeopener's july mcdonald has the response from the superintendent. >> everybody liked him. a lot of people said he was thei behind bars as police investigate inappropriate contact with a student at narragansett regional high school. the 33-year-old teacher was arraigned friday in charges of giving obscene images to a minor. >> he seemed like a nice guy, but that's why it comes as such a shock. reporter: the investigation began earlier this month, when the school resource officer received information praning to

with whom he had a relationship after graduation. that interview led police to believe na he was in contact with a current student, a minor, during this past school year. early friday morning, templeton and worcester police executed a search warrant of his home and he was arrested. >> knowing the people, very unsettling, thinking one of these teachers was like this, sending my kids there eventually some day. reporter: the superintendent of schools sent a letter currently developing a support plan for when our students and staff return to school. please know as a district there is nothing more important than the emotional and physical safety of our children. he added that the teacher was placed on paid administrative leave and must have no contact with students. he was held on $2500 cash bail and must be monitored by gps if it's posted. in templeton, juli mcdonald,

antoinette: saugus police investigating a stabbing that left one person with serious injuries. police responded to 74 broadway around 9:00 last night where they found the victim. police do have a suspect in custody right now, though it's not clear what led up to the stabbing. the coast guard coming to the rescue off the coast of gloucester. a cape ann harbor tour boat was reported that it was taking on water just after 4:30 in the afternoon yesterday. a nearby charter fishing vessel offering some assista help pump out the water. all of the passengers were safely back on shore about an hour later. doug: to commitment 2016. donald trump is headed to ohio tomorrow. he spent last night trying to win over hispanic and african-american voters at a rally in fred riggs burg, virginia. trump says the gop was and still is the party of abraham lincoln. he stuck to the teleprompter and told the crowd, republicans have

alas alaska, have all decriminalized pot use. the district of columbia has done the same. question 4 would allow adults 21 and older to use and cultivate marijuana. the drug would be regulated and taxed by the commonwealth. yes on 4 advocates dispute claims that pot is a gateway drug. >> i would like to see a scientific study that shows that because we haven't seen a single credible scientific study that shows that marijuana is a gateway to anything. if there's a it's two things. tobacco and alcohol. we have seen that early use of tobacco -- both legal. we've seen that early use of tobacco is a gateway to other substances. antoinette: watch on the record this morning at 11:00 a.m. we examine the question of legalizing marijuana in massachusetts. that's followed by "matter of fact" at 11:30. then grammy winning artist, darlene love, is on cityline at

boston's my brother's keeper initiative, the city is offering a $100,000 grant. nonprofits can apply for money for programs for young men of color. it's a commitment to closing the achievement gap. >> we need to make sure we have programs, but they have to be substantial programs and it can't be just talk. when they graduate high school, we've got to put them on a path to something. we need to ensure that our youth successfully enter the work provide second chances. doug: the mayor is sharing a progress report for my brother's keeper. walsh says findings show a need to coordinate programs across the city. antoinette: a consumer alert for college students and their parents already strapped with high tuition bills. doug: also, the new warning from the irs. an amazing rescue, a toddler trapped under a boat. the air pocket that saved her

the cutting edge research that's bringing real life and virtual characters together, like never before. mike? mike: showers and thunderstorms in your forecast for today. when the wet weather moves in and the changes i'm tracking for the week ahead. doug: we have live pictures from route 1a in east boston, where one woman is dead and two injured in a crash. the highway is shut down near bo not reopen for several hours. boston police have talked to several witnesses as theyey when i look for solutions, i don't start in washington, and has all the answers.arty you know where i find common-sense ideas?

that strengthen our economy. i worked to make childcare more affordable and make it easier to save for college. i've worked across party lines on clean air and energy efficiency efforts... and to strengthen social security and medicare. together, we're making new hampshire and america stronger. i'm kelly ayotte,

antoinette: good morning. welcome back. targeting college students and their families. the irs says that people are calling up victims, pretending to be agents and demanding immediate payment of a fake federal student tax and they're pretty convincing. they know the victim's names and they know other information as well. but the irs says they will never, never ask for payment over the phone. doug: the next story is one of those really? pokemon go has become the

hidden in the real world. however, on a different note, researchers at m.i.t. are working to take that idea a step further, bringing the real world into the game. antoinette: mike wankum shows us how in this morning's "cutting edge." mike: to win at pokemon go, you try to find pick chu and friends hidden all over the world. lots of fun, but the characters are just there, floating in space. what if the characters were really part of the scene in your phone? world reacted to their presence and movement. abe davis, a 28-year-old researcher at m.i.t., is making that happen. >> we've developed algorithms that are good at recovering motion that we can't see. motion that's so small or so subtle that you or i wouldn't notice it. mike: everything has vibration, whether it's the grass in the background, this sign or even this building. here at m.i.t., they're studying those tiny vibrations and by

virtual world. here's how it works. as abe pounds his fist on the table, look carefully and you might be able to see the wire figure vibrate. just a little. >> what does that motion tell you about the object itself? mike: he takes just a few seconds of video, capturing that motion. loads it into his interactive dynamic video program, and those algorithms show us how the figure behaves. if you grab an elbow or push or prod it in a variety of ways. >>au will prefer to vibrate at different frequencies and in different shapes. if you can learn that information, then it tells you a lot about how the object would respond to new forces. mike: what are the possibilities? better interaction with gaming. better engineering of bridges and building and hollywood is already taking notice. the system could create more life-like special effects for a lot less money. abe's youtube video of the process got hundreds of

weeks. >> since then, i've gotten a lot of emails. i haven't actually been through all of them, but people seem to be interested, which is exciting. this is why i spent all of that time, because this is cool. mike: abe and his two other team members, along with m.i.t., already have six patents on their work. and what they are doing in the research lab some day may show up on your smart phone or on the big screen. antoinette: technology is already so great. here it isus mike: he can do it in his lab in a matter of seconds, whereas it might take a studio weeks and months of animation. it's amazing. antoinette: mind blowing. mike: it real. doug: i don't think he got an email from any one of us. mike: very bright young man. on the satellite picture this morning, we have not much to talk about here, but if you look to the west, look at this cloud cover starting to come in and look at the rain as well. it's not as much as i'd hoped

models were saying it's going to really rain. now looks like scattered showers, perhaps a rumble of thunder. one or two of us may get a downpour. as far as heavy rains, i don't think it's going to happen. temperatures in the mid to upper 60s at this point. got a few 50s showing up. taunton down to 55. humidity dropped last night. you may have noticed it was comfortable sleeping. now the humidity is coming up as the sunrises. 65 degrees, degrees. this afternoon, the do you waews in the 70s. in the shore line, 70s today. inland, 80s. just like yesterday, the same temperatures. you might be cooler in worcester at 78 degrees. tuesday morning, lows drop to the mid 50s. behind the threat of rain comes rather refreshing air across the area. if you go to the beach today,
