across the area. that will allow temperatures tonight to fall back even more so. temperatures this afternoon, low to mid-50s. then 60s for high temperatures later today. i'll detail the colder spots you can expect tonight coming up in a few minutes. turning to president obama's historic trip to cuba. >> as the first family wakes up on their first full day in the island nation more moments for the history books on tap today. the president, first sitting president to visit cuba in almost 90 years. this was truly a sight many an american president stepping one. his first stop this weekend, the americanem bassy that reopened last year after more than 50 years. >> this is a historic visit, and a historic opportunity to engage directly with the cuban people and forge new agreements and commercial deals to build new ties between our two peoples and for me the -- to

at the same time as a member of trump's security detail reaps for that protester. that campaign manager says he leave. meanwhile trump has become the subject of threats outside of his campaign events too over the weekend. his older sister received a letter similar to one that his son got just hours earlier. that first letter demanded trump drop out of the republican race and contained a suspicious powder. the second letter didn't have that so it's not clear if both letters were written by the same person. while donald trump has the momentum the republican national committee says it's preparing for a possible split convention. that happens if a candidate doesn't have all the delegates needed to win the nomination outright. john kasich says that seems to be the only path to nomination. >> everyone is focusing on process, delegates here, delegates there. everybody has to face the fact we're going to an open

where we're headed. what's everybody so panicked about? everybody needs to take a little chill pill to tell you the truth. >> over the weekend the third gop candidate ted cruz issued this warning about the convention. he said there would be an absolute revolt if the republican establishment puts forth a nominee that didn't spend the last year campaigning. as for the democrats bernie sanders says he's confident he can win in the west. in addition to arizona and utah democrats will caucus in idaho today. he returns to arizona today where former president bill clinton spent the weekend stumping for his wife hillary. the fight to keep the hurricane hunter fleet in tampa bay is ramping up. today senator bill nelson will be in town meeting with noaa and macdill air force base with the man to keep us safe during hurricane season. the planes called the air force base home since 1993. but macdill says they need more space so the hurricane hunters

6:10. a consumer alert. nissan says more cars than first thought have a serious problem that needs fixing. it's expanding its recall of the rogue vehicles to fix a fuel pump problem. this can keep cars' engines from starting or even cause them to stop while being driven. nearly 47,000 cars are under this recall.

2014 and we have the exact manufacturing dates of those recalled cars posted on our web site. and of course on facebook. it may be spring now but look at the temperatures near boston. a nor'easter that moved in overnight dropping some spring snow on beantown. you can see the live drive time camera here. this is snow-covered roads. more snow is forecast there for today. it's going to be a messy commute for folks all across the northeast, not just boston but all the way down to new york city. a video of salt trucks in boston gearing up. they are going to need all the salt they can get, as much as 8 inches expected to fall today. public schools were shut down ahead of the storm. even with today's cool weather there. certainly is. it was in the 60s and 70s in the northeast, now heavy snow. for us the front associated with the low moved through. for us, northwesterly cold flow, coldest temperatures

in the single car crash as well. we're working to gather the names of those involved and expect the roy to be closed for some -- roadway to be closed for some time due to the crash. janelle has more on the workarounds. you can expect part of university to be closed for several hours. right in front of the airport. the southern tip of the airport here. here is where desoto road is, it runs parallel to university university. so that is an option. or to avoid it altogether take televast road to 301. that will take you far away from this crash and hopefully avoid any traffic problems there. we'll keep an eye on it and let you know if we start to see delays on the alternates. elsewhere in the bay area we're in pretty good shape, this is a live look at i-75 at the selmon expressway so good morning brandon, no trouble where you are. we've checked the major roads in your area. let's check your drive times on the toll roads, veterans still

that's exactly what is going to happen. that will get us back to where we should be. it will take a couple of days. for tonight in fact we'll have even cooler temperatures as we lose the wind. that helps to have temperatures fall even more so. highs today 50s and low 60s. this time of year it should be 78, 79. so we're running well below normal. then the overnight lows tonight, unless something very strange happens i'm thinking this is probably going to be our coldest night, our last coldest night of the season here with temperatures in the low 40s as we'll begin to moderate the next few days. 7-day forecast, as we check in, windy, cold, 65. overnight lows in the upper 40s at the airport but again a lot of us dropping into the low to mid-40s further north. 79 by wednesday though. probably get closer if not hitting 80. then we're going to warm up, as that happens with the southeast wind a little more moisture

web site out of business. legal experts believe gawker's appeal will focus on recently unsealed documents in this case, also lawyers for the web site contend that hogan filed this lawsuit in efforts to hide the racist statements he made in the video. the punitive damages are meant to punish defendants for intentional wrongdoing, hogan maintained throughout this case he did not know his secondual encounter with the then wife of his best friend tampa radio host "bubba the love sponge," was being taped. something interesting to note here, usually when a case in this -- something like this, when somebody is awarded millions of dollars, when it's sent to appeals court a lot of times the judgments are reduced so. even if hulk hogan does eventually receive a payout it will more than likely be a lot less than that $115 million and also less than the punitive damages that he receives. of course we'll be following this case throughout the day and you can follow those latest developments on our web site, abcactionnews.com.
