at the new yorker hotel when hillary clinton gave that concession speech it was very somber. people who were visible upset. after they worked very hard. she's been a candidate for 500 days now. she's had two campaigns for president this past one we know unpress deputied. the first woman to get a nomination. it was shocking. we know what the polls said. and the poll had her leading right up until election day. for this to happen, it was a complete shock and she said this will be painful for quite some time. >> i'm told there was confetti in the barrels there to be dropped down on all -- what they thought was gong to be revelers. champagne on ice. that had to be taken away. to be a transition period of president obama. he's invited donald trump to the white house.

times like this. thank you for having that part of the story from new york city. >> well let's check in on the weather forecast today. what are we looking at? >> we all just analyze and analyze. the weather is allowing it. it's not allowing too many distractions for us. it's wet and drizzling. it does look like the rain will fade by the evening commute. but right now a lot of low clouds hanging here in our i'm hoping for a high of 50 degrees. that north-northwest wind. making it feel colder. notice here wind speeds around 16 miles an hour in cleveland. i've seen wind gust as high as 28. so it's definitely a windy day in addition to the light rain that's -- you can see especially here in

for you. a little bit more rain. more on the lighter side here but more dominant. you have 46 and -- same story for you but dry in kent. see the sprinkles back west. ashland the warmest. trying to dry out. painful but it's just chilly and windy. high pressure system is really going to help us out. shift our winds. moving them out to the north. shifting them interest that does mean some warmer temperature for the forecast here tomorrow. friday we bring back the rainfall. it doesn't look like much but a playoff game could get a little bit wet. going to need those as we progress throughout the workweek. as far as temperatures go, it does keep it cool into the weekend. and very small rain chances ahead. but as far as daytime highs go, i do think this weekend, 40 for you saturday

we're on the radio. check us out. for now, time for mark's garden. look at those beautiful trees. come on past those. okay. you're seeing reeds right now. they look good too but that's not what we're here to talk about. angelo has some new operation in l.e.d. trees. i've got my foot on the controls. tell me what this tree >> basically the power connector. very easy to put together. >> you don't have to run plugs. >> you have a bulb that goes out, just that bulb. >> what about the function aty of the lights. >> i got my finger on it right here. look i changed it to white. look at. that white and then back to color. >> and you can set it up anyway

we want to straight to the white house and president obama speaking about last night's election. let's go straight to the white house. >> successful transition between our presidencies. now, it is no secret that the president-elect and i had some pretty significant dirchtions. but remember, eight years ago, president bush and i had significant differences. president bush's team couldn't professional and gracious in making sure we had a smooth transition so that we could hit the ground running. and one thing you realize quickly in this job is the presidency and the vice presidency is bigger than any of us. i have instructed my team to follow the example that president bush's team set eight years ago and work as hard as we can toik to make sure this is a successful transition for the

for a success in uniting and leading the country. the peaceful transition of power is one of the hallmarks of our democracy and over the next few months we are going to show that to the world. i also had a chance last night to speak with secretary clinton and i just had a chance to hear her remarks. i could not be prouder of her. she has lived an extraordinary life of pu was an outstanding senator for the state of new york and she could not have been a better secretary of state. i'm proud of her. a lot of americans look up to her. her candidacy and nomination was historic and sent a message to our daughters all across the country that they can achieve at the highest levels in politics and i'm absolutely confident

great work for people here in the united states and all around the world. now, everybody is sad when their side loses an election. but the day after, we have to remember that we're on one team. this is an intramural scrimmage. we're not democrat first or republicans first. we are americans we're patriots first. we all want what's best for this country. that's what i heard from mr. trump's remarks last night. that's what i heard when i spoke to him directly. and he was heartened by that. that's what a country needs. a sense of unity, a sense of inclusion and a respect

of life, rule of law and a respect for each other. i hope that he maintains that spirit throughout this transition and i certainly hope that's how his presidency has a chance to begin. i also told my team today to keep their heads up because the remarkable work that in and day out, often without a lot of fanfare, often with a lot of attention, work in agencies, work in obscure areas of policy, that make the government run better and make it more responsive and make it more efficient and make it more service friendly so that it's actually helping more people,

the next president with a stronger -- >> so in this election that was always our mission. that was our mission from day one. and everyone on my team should be extraordinarily proud of everything that they have done. and so should all of the americans that i've had a chance to meet all across this country who do the hard work of il progress every single day. teachers in schools, doctors in er clinic and small businesses putting their a into starting something up, making sure they're treating their employees well. all the important work that's done by moms and dads and families and con congregations in every state

so this was a long and hard- fought campaign. a lot of our fellow americans are -- but that's the nature of campaigns. that's the nature of democracy. it is hard. and sometimes con -- but to the young people time and may be disappointed by the result, i just want you to know you have to stay encouraged. don't get cynical. don't ever think you can't make a difference. secretary clinton said this morning, i need to know what it is right is worth it.

sometimes you lose an election. the path this country's taken has never been a straight line. we zig and zag and sometimes we move in ways that some people think is forward and others think is moving back. and that's okay. i've lost elections before. jo i've been -- i've been sort of -- >> you beat me badly. [ laughter ] >> that's the way politics work sometimes. we try really hard to persuade people that we're right and let people vote. and then if we lose, we learn from our mistakes, we

ourselves off. we get back in the arena. we go at it. we try even harder the next time. the postoperative though is that we all two forward with a preis assumption of good faith in our fellow citizens. because that presumption of good faith is essential to a vibrant and functioning democracy. that's how this country has moved forward for 240 years. it's how we freedom around the world. that's how we've expanded the rights of our founding to reach all of our citizens. it's how we have come this far. and that's why i'm confident that this incredible journey that we're on as americans will go on. and i'm looking forward to doing everything -- is successful in that.

runner. you take the baton and run your best race and hopefully by the time you hand it off, you're at further ahead, you've made a little progress. and i can say that we've done and then i want to make sure the handoff is well executed. ultimately we're all on the same team. all right. thank you very much, everybody. glmpleght obama saying his team to keep their head up to lead by example. might have been forced but is rooted in his respect of a peaceful transition for our institutions, for the rule of law. his respect for democracy. he said we are all on the same team now and we must all root for success of rt --

doubt. he said we must go forward in the spirit of being in this together. >> i think -- people who are slr, very distressed today. people who supported him and hillary clinton who really are worried about the country, who are in a position where they just can't imagine a trump presidency and he's trying to make it seem as normal as humanly possible. it's noisy. you lose some electi and this is not the end of the world but i think that was -- that's why he's doing that because he knows some of the followers are really -- in a state of true distress. >> bring out that metaphor. presidency is a relay runner. from one to another. the metaphor might break out.
