many spots, including the city of boston which is fairly rare. it has only happened in about four times in record-keeping history. past october 19. so we may be done with the 8's for this year. here we go with the cloud cover. working in slowly but surely as we get into this afternoon. right now, mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies. current temperatures, 61 in boston. 66 in norwood. it is warmer as you get farther to the south. 69 in new bedford. we will eventually bump in head into the overnight hours. but for now, our wind is coming in off the ocean water. and where the ocean water is 60 degrees. the wind kind of wants to blow that air temperature in our direction as well. so 15-mile-per-hour sustained winds in boston right now. it is fairly breezy. it gets windy for the weekend. we top out, generally speaking in the mid-6's today. cooler along the coastline. into tomorrow, you see those mild temperatures. we will also be dodging a few showers.

all that rain off to our west. this is a warm front to our south. that will eventually work north as i mentioned overnight tonight. and in through first part of tomorrow. and that does boost our temperatures up. i think even low 70's. not out of the question for tomorrow. but we've got the clouds. we also have sort of a murky feel to everything with those scattered showers throughout the day tomorrow. lasting through friday night into the first part of saturday. but there is also the potential that we can shut that action down for saturday afternoon sunday. we need the rain. we will take all we can get. the forecast models really have been all over the place with how this is going to pan out. we can plan on early estimates. half an inch to an inch widespread. then you see that there is the potential... we can't promise that it is right there across the south shore, plymouth area, the potential is there for two to three inches in some isoit had locations. if we get those heavy downpours. again, we will take every drop

we are still about 10-10.5 inches below average from worcester stretching out to boston. so every drop helps. scattered showers overnight tonight. patchy fog setting up. those temperatures rising. and tomorrow, it's mild. you will want the umbrella handy and have it with you. we are in for a windy weekend. the head of the charles regatta. it is going to be kicking. we areki northwesterly winds that are guing between 30-40 miles per hour. and much cooler temperatures for next week. look at tuesday, wednesday, topping out in the 40's. >> sarah: all right. still ahead on 7: an explosion rocks the city of portland, oregon. now we are learning more about one's man heroic actions that saved lives. a worcester biker pinned under a worcester biker pinned under a imagine if your child

cloud cover. and even some scattered showers. now, you can see this batch of showers right here moving throughling a beny right now. tracking to the northeast. this will not be moving to us at this point. as we take a look at the bigger picture, we will be getting the warm front to move through overnight tonight. here is what we are in for for today. late sprinkle. 62-67. here is the bigger picture i was waiting for. warm front just to our south. that will give us that mild air for tomorrow. it is sort of a south, southeasterly flow. boosting temperatures up fbs. but it is also going to bring us some shower activity. tomorrow is a day to have the rain gear with you. the umbrella, even the galoshes. it will not be a soaker all day long. on-again, off-again showers as we work through the timeline here. 3:00 this afternoon, we have the rain staying in the western part of the commonwealth. and then just some scattered showers in store for us for later on this evening. after dark tonight. after the sun has already gone down. then into tomorrow, 8:00 a.m. scattered showers for the

evening, we are even getting some reds and oranges and yellow colors popping up on the forecast map. end daying that there will be some heavy down pours associated with the on-again, off-again showers. that is why you want the umbrella handy. or else you might just get dumped on. and one certain moment of the day, when you step outside. how much rain is on the way? a little tricky. there could be some tropical moisture that sort of gets sucked into this action. now, generally speaking, i wosa inch we can count on. that is widespread. there could be some overachievers. it is really hard to pinpoint exactly where those spots that win the lion's share will be. winds as we get into the weekend, also picking up. it is breezy tomorrow. friday evening, still quite breezy. then into saturday afternoon, and also sunday, when we will see the strongest winds, gusts could get between 30-40 miles per hour. if the rain doesn't take down some of beautiful foliage, the

weekend. we will be doing recon as the winds die down. and we get into next week. we will also bundle up for that. the sunshine is back tuesday and wednesday. but look at the temperatures. topping out in the upper 40's. >> sarah: a live press conference with donald trump. he is saying he will accept the results if he wins. let's listen in. >> the way they should be taken care of. that i can tell you. our vets are treated oftentimes not as well as illegal immigrants, and we are going to change that very fa. treated properly and with great respect. that is not happening now.

i heard a strange sound coming from my basement, and my hot water heater was leaking. luckily it's protected by a repair plan from homeserve, which covers things from drain valves to burners. a technician came right over. he handles all kinds of unexpected problems with my heating system. hey, homeserve guy! sorry...

kathy: it goes by so fast. kate: one day you're a kid - and the next... kelly: ...you're raising your own little girl. kelly: growing up, i watched my mom work so hard. through challenges and struggles, she made our lives better. she's my inspiration in the senate - whether strengthening social security or medicare, or helping make college more affordable... she taught me that with hard work... kate: you can do anything? kathy: anything. kate: my mom taught me that too. kelly: i'm kelly ayotte, and i approved that message. >> sarah: a lot of big match-up this is week. we have the scoop in this

not seeing that this time around. williams, sit him down. >> jadiann: the steelers are bad against pass. >> new orleans and oakland, the only two teams in the league that are worse than the steelers in pass defense. both teams given up over 300 yards a game. that is a great match-up if you have a quarterback. the raiders, garbage. bortle, start. >> jadiann: go set your lineup. >> sarah: coming up next, video of a smoking chimpanzee igniting controversy. how the zoo is responding. >> bri: never too early to plan for the weekend, the head of the charles coming up this weekend. one last look at the forecast

but they can't. if you like your public school, question 2 won't affect you. but for kids stuck in failing school districts, question 2 will let parents choose something better and give all our kids hope. please vote yes on question 2. >> sarah: a cigarette-smoking chimpanzee in north korea sparking controversy. peta is demanding answers.yo to light her own cigarette and smoke it. an employee at the zoo typically throws her a lighter or a lit cigarette. the zoo is being cruel, peta says, for getting the chimpanzee addicted to tobacco for amusement. she smokes a pack a day, the zoo says she is not in any danger because she doesn't inhale any of the smoke. regardless, probably not a good habit to pick up, though. right? >> bri: yeah. interesting. today clouds moving in for us.
