and with the jetstream running to our north this entire week, we're talking about temperatures on average 10-15 degrees above normal. we could start with record high temperatures here by friday. so we're enjoying the warmth for now. it is 47 out the door right now in boston. and 43 in worcester. in between, a lot of 30's. you do need that jacket this morning. you'll be able to shed it later this afternoon. 39 in beverly. 35 in nashua. notice we're at freezing norwood, near it in taunton. low 30's all the way down to the vineyard. just 39 in falmouth. so colder this morning out the door than it was yesterday. but that's because the skies are completely clear. to the forth there are some clouds up near the canadian border. and into the state of maine right now, rain and snow at least up through northern maine. that's a warm frontal boundary temperatures. with high pressure right on top of southern new england this morning, it will give us a lot of sunshine here throughout the day. sunrise at 6:20 this morning. by 8:00 a.m. we should be up around 50 degrees. your lunch hour today maybe brown

the jetstream stays to the north for now. unless you're extreme northern california. mostly sunny. high clouds over the sierra though. mostly sunny. few high clouds near 70. up in lake county there's good gusts up there. >> we want to mention that the traffic has become a little better only because that traffic -- the accident on the bay bridge is cleared. and that was look at the macarthur maze. you can see it's slow approaching the bay bridge. there was an accident on the actual span. and that messed things up. for lack of a morale began way to say it. things are slow coming through. we also are looking at other commutes around the bay. you can see the san mateo bridge not a great alternate. it's jam packed over the peninsula which by the way is not that bad. this is a look at highway 101. you can see southbound 101 is a little slow. i mentioned the peninsula. a lot of people want to know what it's like to get down to the airport. no problems getting down to the airport. this is northbound 280 getting up to highway 17. that traffic is already slow. 7:02. this is a look at the pen

then the jetstream is going to lift. that is going to be the big player in this. pulling back the cool air back into canada bringing in mild air for us. and then we're going to watch the chances for showers coming on thursday from that cold front. it comes really thursday afternoon, i think, into friday but it's a very slow-moving front. with it we'll get a good dosing of some rain and also some wind and mild temperatures so if you like that, we'll be in the upper 50's, maybe pushing 60 degrees mid 50's on friday. and then much cooler on saturday. j.c.? jc: danielle, thank you. the patriots take on the new york giants today. security expected to be increased at metlife stadium in new jersey. the pats looking to continue their undefeated streak. kickoff is at 4:25 this afternoon. and make sure to stick with channel 5 for monday night football. the patriots squaring off against rex ryan and the buffalo bills on november 23. our coverage begins at 8:00 with our sportscenter 5 countdown to the kickoff show live from gillette stadium. antoinette: sportscenter 5 heads t

the big trend with this is basically the jetstream. it is really pushing and lifting to the north allowing for the mild conditions so we're mild on wednesday with high temperatures in the upper 60's. friday, notice we rebound even more, into the lower 70's. our record high temperatures could be in contention on thursday as we have a record high of 73 in worcester and 79 in boston. and then there's a chance for some showers on friday. that will pull temperatures back down over the weekend. hey, enjoy the warm week. frank and antoinette. antoinette: 70's, danielle, thank you. time right now is 8:17. stories we're following right now. frank: at least nine people are dead in an violent attack at a police say islamic extremists attacked the hotel in the capital of mogadishu. a suicide bomber detonated a car with explosives at the gate, and then gunmen on foot opened fire. al-shabab, the islamic extremist rebels waging an insurgency against somalia's u.n.-backed government, claimed responsibility for the attack. antoinette: tragedy in new yo

another is the upper level winds known as the jetstream.his is the wind pattern that drives the weather patterns across the world. and basically, hurricanes or cyclones and strong upper level winds do not mix well. that is going to allow for this system to quickly degenerate into a tropical depression come the weekend. the upperlevel wind pattern is also going to be responsible for a few other pafactors. it's the potential of ice storm from texas to oklahoma. we have warm, moist air that's funneling in from the gulf of mexico. behind it, a very tight temperature gradient. cold air surging south. what does warm air do? rises. cold air sinks. on a typical winter pattern when we have snow flakes, this snow would fall through a column of air that's below freezing. that's zero degrees kels yus, staying frozen until it reaches the ground. where w this transition in seasons in the united states, it will fall between a warmer patch of air that's coming up, allowing for the snow flake to melt. then it reaches the colder air, freezing on contact, and
