and for more on chile's protests and anger i'm joined tonight by a crystal ball called fossa he's a political science professor at the diego portales university in chile's capital santiago professor it's good to have you on the program tonight let me ask you as a citizen of chile are you surprised to see what's happening. yes i'm known to be honest i'm surprised in the sense that nobody expect that he's going to turn so fast. and they're not surprised because those who have been doing research like myself and many colleagues we do know that the levels of inequality and anger of the lesion 'd are extremely high and this is the main cause of the problem is that we are seeing nobodies and so you say that academics as yourself people on the street they know that this gap between the rich and the poor has gotten bigger and yet just last week the president of chile said that your country is in no way says among south america's problematic economies is he really that album of touch with reality. well i think that the important role mr president but the government in general but also the you know eve

again we've had this in a situation where of course the fossa continue to burn the winds have really been dropping and what's been happening is that he has been in places at the end of a very very hot dry summer but look at these temperatures 27 in the in san francisco 32 in l.a. these time which is about 10 degrees above the average for this time of year they will begin to come down by about sunday but by then the winds could be up to 90 kilometers an hour however look at this in the central plains we have got cold air in place it is so cold we're seeing some snow even down as far as the panhandle of texas this is amarillo about 10 centimeters of snow has actually already come down so as we go through friday it stays clear across the central plains out towards the west the rain of course is me mom across the south and the southeast and then look at these temperatures because on saturday we've got 21 and it is still warm in some smoky conditions as well because of the proximity of those fires and then look at this drop in denver. the snow comes into sunday time which is minus one degree by day. weather sponsored by catherine is. a su
