some of us will see a drop especially in southeastern massachusetts. perhaps an upgrade to dampen the pavement. it's coming along with this cold frontal boundary and although it's not going to do much to produce a lot of is going to do is really change the temperature dramatically. a southerly wind out ahead of this front so temperatures are well into the 60's even though we have not had much sunshine today, we had a little with the clouds. these are the current temperatures. it is in the 40's right now, minneapolis down to sioux city iowa. it is only 50 degrees and the sun is out. that is coming our way for tomorrow and start weekend so 60 degrees in boston. the south southwesterly wind at 14. that has brought in milder air. upper 60's of the north shore, fitchburg up to 60 degrees already. worcester started out with a lot of fog this morning. now 61 degrees and you can see along the south coast, new bedford, 69. a lot of us will sneak up to 70 degrees in the next couple of hours before class started thicken and showers move in at least little bit of

expect there's a slight chance we could get some drizzle early on today, especially in southeastern massachusetts, cape cod and the island. but really watch for this front here. this is our next weather maker moving in for this afternoon. and it is bringing us a few showers. here as we run through the time line, you can see between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., you could see some spotty road showers and possibly some drizzle, but other than that it's not looking like beneficial rainfall, not even as it sort of breaks apart. so some of us may not even see any of those rain drops. i do expect it to move through between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m., and then it's out of here and the clouds follow it for a very bright but cooler friday. a fantastic weekend in store for us. here's your planner for today. spotty drizzle early on breaking out into some sunshine for this afternoon. very mild temperatures, as well. could even make it into the low 70s for some. and then the clouds move back in with that spot shower as we head into the evening hours. weekend forecast to come. 7news "today in new england" starts right now.

south of the pike starring to happen in southeastern massachusetts. a frontal boundary stuck over our area northward. the last couple of frames on satellite imagery the cloud cover beginning to shrink up in that trend will continue this afternoon. i think we hang onto these clouds in the boston area for the next couple of hours but after 2:00 the skies begin to write and we should clear things out this evening. temperatures will respond. we should managed to climb into the 70's in most areas. by 3:00 the clouds moving out and we are setting up are mainly clear skies. it's going to take a while but the temperatures will jump up were we approached the 80 degree-mark. we'll talk about when we do cool down ahead. erika: breaking news in new hampshire where an incident where shots were fired inside a candy a home. a woman inside that home surrendered peacefully and was taken into custody. police say at 12-year-old child who was in the home on north road did make it out safely. reid: likely massachusetts voters has hillary clinton with a large lead over don

that will slide up especially across southeastern massachusetts and give us another dose of heavy rainfall. right now just scattered about. some of the steadier rain leaving cape cod but this is the one reconceived thunder and lightning and strong winds during overnight. temperatures starting to rebound a little. 40 in worchester, everyone above freezing. 55 in groton. that air will overspread southeastern mass in overnight and into tomorrow morning. timing it out, there you see the band of rain sliding up across the region through early tomorrow morning. by the time we're heading to work, 6:00 or 7:00 a.m. still simmering possible across northern massachusetts and new hampshire the wettest part will be new hampshire tomorrow morning. plus you'll have strong winds.

some fog will develop southeastern massachusetts. everybody else staying relatively clear and out where it's clear is where your temperatures will drop the most. sunshine all day long once any fog burns offer. 60's on the cape the 70's, south shore. 70's plus up here into the merrimack valley, up to 75 degrees in some spots. going to fast forward into this is the hurricane matthew coming up the coast by friday and this is that front that we've been talking so much about. this front, if it were to hang back would allow the storm to come up the coast. if it was strong enough to come on through more quickly, it would suppress it and it's coming forward new england and giving a push to this system, rather than letting it come up the front, it's pushing it to the south. but there's the possibility some of this tropical moisture can come right up the front. you see it here. with this caveat. this computer model has a slightly different forecast than what the hurricane farther to the southeast and wouldn't allow for this connection to happe

high temperatures today, only in getting up to 49 with 50s in southeastern massachusetts. playing out just as we thought it would but temperatures right now already falling down to the mid and lower 40s, so they don't have far to fall, to get to the freezing levels later on tonightings especially away from the coastline. wind chills by the way in worcester feels like 36 in boston, it feels like 40. so the freeze warning is our first issue. the next one will be the next storm that's on the way. i'm timing that out and what it brings to us for thursday just ahead. >> kevin, thank you. a lawsuit has been filed against the driver accused of the west newton business. the husband of the woman killed on the -- in the sweet tomatoes crash is suing for wrongful death. last weg greg case her pleaded not guilty to motor vehicle homicide. eleanor mealy and another man were killed when his car hit the restaurant in march. >> we are now learning new information about the driver being blamed for causing a deadly wrong-way crash on the local highway. five people died and four of the victi

but i believe there will be some rainshowers in southeastern massachusetts, especially from plymouth, southeast to cape cod and the islands. 4:00 p.m. in the afternoon, but mostly clear the farther north and west you go and no risk of any showers in boston the way i see it. here is where i'll keep the showers in the forecast for you on cape cod and the islands. in the morning, the half marathon in boston, there could still be a shower at 7:00 a.m. and drying it out, temperatures in the upper 50's to low 60's and actually, falling a bit as the day goes on, but not a threat for a heavy rain the way it looks to me at this point. something we'll be watching closely all weekends for your plans in and marathon. i'm not. that's how it will be around boston for any of your activities. this is the storm off of the coastline here. there's jacksonville, the eye of the storm is offshore by quite a margin. it's actually wobbled a little bit to the right. how do i know that? we can measure from the eye to the coastline and find out it's 37 miles away. it was back to 30 miles when i first started ta

compared to last week, we have southeastern massachusetts but still extreme drought conditions across the boston into worcester area. we do have a some chance for rain tonight. satellite radar picture shows a couple showers trying to push through southern new hampshire but this is a broken cold front and it's not going to carry a lot of moisture. overnight, spotty showers but a lot of that dries up tomorrow morning and in that cold front, that doesn't pass all the way through. we keep the potential clouds monday evening and a spotty shower. that same boundary will lift up the warm front tuesday. that is why we are going to see that bigger surge of warmth as temperatures soar into the 80s and high pressure, that don't just grows and grows into tuesday and wednesday. an area of low pressure to our north and another low to our south in the tropics. depending on where those lows track and how high that make the difference between a good soaking rain by the end of the week or no rain at all for us. we are positive with a chance of showers and cooler temperatures toward the tail end of the

pretty good in the precipitation department, especially along the coastline especially southeastern massachusetts including the cape and island. worcester an inch of rain, boston inch and a half. the dew odrop monitor hainlt changed much. last week for several weeks in the extreme category. and now we've pealed that way back to the severe category. nod rat category, again, slowly but surely we'll come out of this thing right now close to 70, the city at 70 degrees and then you hop on the other side of the cooler air rushes in after a few evening sprinkles and showers. clearing skies and wind will begin to pick up late tonight and tomorrow morning, temps tonight 46 to 41u51 northwest winds gusting 15 to at times 25 miles per hour. tomorrow we are back in full sun was goal -- cool, especially in the morning hours, temps through the day between 55 and 60. a little below normal, normal boston tomorrow afternoon 59. lakeville 51. mid and upper 50s worcester hills low to mid-50s. after friday at 55. sun and clouds tomorrow afternoon. out onto the cape and island, lots of sunshine. chatham 58. nantucket
