6:14 am
there you go. this is a live look over boston. just a few minutes from sunrise, but not a lot of light there on the horizon. a damp start, it's muggy. 68 degrees. you can see the humidity up high with the dewpointings running in the mid 60s. and we have a wind off the ocean and that easterly flow has brought in this moisture. so the sticky feel out there. the muggies will be with us throughout the day. it has brought in fog, too. visibility is running a few miles here on the north and it was under a half a mile at times early this morning in worcester. it has come up to two miles, but we're dealing with rain out this way, and you can see the bands of showers, light ones, have developed and they have been going towards the north and west so the steadier rain is starting to shift northwest in the worcester area but still getting in on light rain around this area towards lowell over to this area, and we have showers
