The reporter its one of the hottest days of the year and you know the temperature inside in your car can be even warmer than the house outside. The mspca says that is no place for a pet and theyre much closer to a bill that says the same. On a sweltering day in august, the mspcas cara begins to worry. It happens too frequently and something that is very preventable. The reporter the mspca is ban pet owners from leaving your animals in cars during extreme weather. Already this year, its impacted several animals. Theres been some deaths of dogs this summer, who have been left in hot cars. The bill she is backing just passed the Massachusetts Legislature. It would also allow passersby to break windows of a vehicle where a dog is trapped if theyve unsuccessfully tried to locate the owner. This bill will prevent the suffering of animals. The reporter now theyre hoping the governor will sign it. When we asked him about it today, it sounds as likely to. We have rules in state law with respect to hot cars and child endangerment associated with that. I certainly think as a dog other than, that dog owner, there ought to be similar standards for animals as well. Massachusetts as a long history of animal protection. We have one of the earliest animal cruelty laws. Elizabeth the bills would prohibit dog tethering between 10 00 p. M. And 6 00 a. M. And when a weather vsry or warning has been issued.

Vanessa tom brady and gronk are expected to watch from the sidelines, but as sports director tom leyden reports, there will be a number of players making their patriots debut this evening. The reporter theres no question about that and you forgot to mention, julian edelman, hes unlikely to play tonight. I would be surprised to see him at all after he tweaked his foot the other day in practice against the saints. This is his opportunity not only many of the young guys who have been through training camp, through the mini camps, been through the otas, but the first chance to put on a uniform, get out in front of a crowd in game situations and prove what they can do, jones, Malcolm Mitchell and in speaking with mitchell yesterday, he talked about every opportunity carrying a ton of weight for a guy like him. In the situation hes in, i would assume every opportunity is a game day type of opportunity, right . Because you mess up at youre probably messing up in the game. So the best thing you can do is approach practice like youre going to play in the game. That way, youre prepared for either situation. The reporter now thats a guy were going to really keep our eye on over the next couple of weeks, because he talks a very good game, he seems to be involved in everything thats going on with this organization and well see what he can do on the field tonight.

But let me tell you, our heat index right now, over 100 in boston, as well as the north shore. Through the merrimack valley, down across the southeast. So this is what it feels like. It feels about 10 degrees hotter than the actual temperatures. So the heat advisory that we had that went into effect at noon, it does continue until 7 00 p. M. For those very hot conditions. Perhaps drink plenty of fluids if you will be outside.

Coolest conditions on the cape, good for you if its your week there, you have that wind off the water, but it still feels . Its sticky and the stickiest conditions, likely south of the pike, thats why we could still see an isolated shower as we head through the evening, but once that sun sets, the threat is going to be diminishing. The clouds, theyre going to probably be sticking around, although well see breaks, fog developing as temperatures overnight, look at this, youre waking up to the mid to upper 70s. Its going to be 80 degrees ate by your lunch hour, were back into the 90s. Sunshine, mixed with some clouds, some of those clouds will begin to bubble up in the afternoon. The front will bed. .
