Once you start getting through the daytime heating sounds like spring and summertime with daytime heating but a chance of more widespread snow showers and snow squalls working on through. There could be brief bursts of heavier snow to work on in with any snow squall that works on in.

Heres 7s victoria warren. Vicki, good morning. Victoria good morning. Fire crews on the scene. The investigation just getting under way because they have been fighting this fire all night, making sure all hot spots are out. The fire was concentrated on the second floor of this twofamily home here in fitchburg. Video from overnight, firefighters greeted by some intense flames coming out of those secondfloor windows when they arrived, and what the fire chief tells us is that when firefighters went inside, they found one man near the second floor stairs. They helped him out. He was rushed to the hospitals. They found another person near a that person they brought out, had to perform c. P. R. On, that person also rushed to the hospital. But then fire crews say they did find a third victim inside the home, somebody who did not make it out, so theyve confirmed that one person died in this fire last night. These two other victims were rushed to the hospital. No update on their condition, but the fire chief did say that one person was conscious when they were loaded into the ambulance and the other person, they were performing c. P. R. On. They said this house was really difficult to fight this fire and search for these victims because theres a lot of small rooms up on that second floor, making it a little bit difficult to navigate. So that was something the Fire Department was up against. But now that the fire is out, they can concentrate on determining a cause.

Nancy Bernie Sanders claiming his first win in the race for president.
