Colors and paths. A few of them pulling back toward the coast. But it looks like the odd man out at this point. Most want the go this way. By early next week and lets hope nothing changes with that and we will be just fine. This is what has happened. We have this swirl in the atmosphere. That could have come far enough east to capture this and pull it back toward the coast. Its going to pull the tropical rainfall into the coastline and bring torrential rain and floods to the carolinas. No doubt in the next couple of days. Were in for a rough weekend but it wont capture the center of the storm. And it becomes at the mercy of the normal jet stream patterns. Neither of these scenarios included the possibility of it coming up the coast. But that was never really going to be the path. It was going to be one way or the other and now sort of the center line. Here is the rain that is over us. I point this out because this has nothing to do with the hurricane or the tropical system at all. The wind and any coastal flooding all independent. Well track the rain tonight and the latest in moments from now with the National Hurricane center.

It is unclear why the aircraft similar to this one went down. The taliban claimed responsibility but u. S. Forces on the ground dispute that. When ever the cause of the crash it took a back seat to the personal loss. There are no words that can adequately express the deep sadness. It was a day to gather and grieve. A time to remember their faces and their names and their service to the country. I did ask the col.

And now police and Community Members are trying the figure out what could have motivated a 26yearold to carry out a senseless tragedy. One persons deranged act may have broken all of our hearts. But he cannot prevent our hearts from growing back bigger and stronger. Reporting from roseburg, oregon. Mercer flunked out of Army Basic Training in 2008.

Tonight the mayor is telling me no he didnt have anything to do with that and his office went ahead and issued these are the permits that they issued for the top chef Production Company to go ahead and shoot here in the city. We caught up with boston mayor marty walsh to see if he knows the identity of the unnamed city hall aid in this federal excuses teamsters of old school thug tactic. Do you know who it is . I honestly dont. An aid made calls informing them there would be picture iting if the production was held there. They later pulled out because they didnt want a picket outside.

Prosecutors said they took part in chest bumming and tire slashing and shouting racial and homophobic slurs. With the actions but did say this wont affect his support of the teamsters.

Everything that we have on top of us right now is not associated with that storm. Were just getting nasty weather. A little bit of flooding and edgar town seeing some rain and heavy downpours. Getting offshore into the harbor and there air. You are. Farther to the west and to the north some pockets of heavy rain moderate any way and then spots of yellow showing up around stover and then to the north shore right here through ipswich and offshore some of the heavy rain. And plenty more where that came from. This rain extend down the coast. That front sticking to the south. Part of the reason why the storm joaquin is going to be deflected. There are so many moving parts. But first our futurecast locally wont rain all the time tonight but a lot of the time and when its not raining steadily you may have drizzle. With the onshore wind that will not relent. This continues into tomorrow. A lot of rain breaks apart but youll continue toronto drizzle. The clouds will be sticking around and the farther north and west the better chance youll find some sunshine and good colors with the leaves. Going fastforward into sunday morning. Cloud and drizzle but High Pressure starting to eat away at that and well see some sunshine. Youre still stuck with the onshore wind. The clouds and the drizzle nearest the coast. Likely even into sunday. These are the winds. Gusting at 32 Miles Per Hour. Province town nearly 40 and nantucket and marthas vineyard. Blowing hard consistently as well. A lot of clouds and periodic rain for cape cod and the and then north sunshine. Nearest the coast stays cloudy. You go newspaper the mountains youll find the sun and the better colors. And then joaquin. Still a major hurricane. But now categorized as a cat 3 storm with winds at 125 Miles Per Hour. Pulling north out of the bahamas. And notice this is pulling northeast and then it starts to come up to the north. Just to the east of the blue box is a Little Island of bermuda. There is a category two hurricane well offshore but they will be watching closely. Spins back out to the east. Notice back here its where new england is and the coast of canada as well. The thing is when i look at the spaghetti tracks they cluster out here and the ones turning it inconsequential at this point. There is a good possibility that we will be on the western flank of the cone meaning close to new england but even there still a couple of hundred miles offshore. Sevenday forecast, takes you into the beginning of the week where sunshine makes an appearance. Should be back with full sunshine. At least there is some hope coming.

And then off to the north again dont focus just on the central line. There are probabilities there. I do think there is a good possibility. If you want to know its going to be way out here heading toward england as a tropical depression. Look at all of the computer models and the spaghetti plot. That is where it looks like its clustering and it turns this way. Its going around High Pressure which is going to push it back a bit before you wrap back around High Pressure. High pressure goes like this. Circles clockwise and that is why this is a good shot. Even on the western edge. Probability it would be a couple of hundred miles off. So were out of danger. Certainly some rough seas but it does look like the rain would not abe factor. Just going to be too far away and moving away.

The school obtained video of unaged students drinking and also warned that several of them might be punished. It is still unclear when or where that party happened. School Committee Members are considering later start times as they research how that could benefit Students Health and performance. Right now most high schools in worcester start at 7 20 00 a. M. Checking joaquin. Now a category three storm. And also some heavy rain in the area. Ive been asked many times. It has nothing to do with it. Will make it into the midatlantic and carolinas and cause incredible flooding. Meanwhile we have heavy rain. Were seeing some of the heavy rain just approach on nantucket to the west. Heavier downpours and most of it is offshore. To the west down to new bedford heavy rain showing up. Much of it is green here. To the north same thing for wilmington. Spots of yellow from time to time much of that is in the ocean but there is a northern extent all the way into new hampshire. The seacoast getting wet. So this really made its way northward. During the day today and its going to continue as more moisture continues to stream that brought us the heavy rain. So we had a dry period. Back to getting wet today and well stay wet until tomorrow morning. It looks like its going to get eaten away. We have High Pressure which is fair weather to the north and trying its best to come down here and get rid of the rain. As it does that the winds are blowing right towards the shoreline. Keeps the clouds and the drizzle blowing in. Its going to be a cool raw day. Youre going to find breaks of sun and increasing sunshine. And during sunday here comes the clearing. But if your oh on the east coast of massachusetts and especially cape cod you still have the winds blowing in the water laden air. Its going to stay cloudy. With the potential for drizzle. So winds are blowing right now. Marthas vineyard and nantucket 47 Miles Per Hour. Strong winds and its going to keep you cloudy and raw and damp all weekend long. So it stands to reason closest to the water you get closer to 60 degrees and above. There is the sun that pokes out. With temperatures in the 50s. Locked into the clouds. Much of the weekend even on the seacoast of new hampshire. None of it having to do with joaquin. 125 Miles Per Hour winds forecast to take off to the northeast. And then into sunday afternoon and peel off into monday and out of here well past new england. All of the Spaghetti Models really clustering out here and that is why the National Hurricane center has taken the path. My only concern is this wiggle to the west. That is because its wrapping around the High Pressure which is out here and spins like this High Pressure clockwise and going to push it back a bit. It will stay stay 200 miles offshore. But that is something that we have to watch closely. So while the chances of it coming closer to new england are not zero they are pretty low. Sevenday forecast keeps it damp through tomorrow. And sun starting to break out sunday and monday and then some full sunshine tuesday as that storm joaquin makes its way well off. Well keep tracking the heavy rains.
