killed. phoenix, a 14-year-old girl was gunned down and 8 others shot at a strip mall in south carolina, where bullets tore through a graduation party, leaving one dead and others injured, six children. in texas, georgia, new york, and michigan. add those numbers up with the other mass shootings over the first months of 2022, and you get 240 mass shootings. let me say that again. 240 mass shootings already this year, in a year that s not even half over. what will republican governors, legislators, and members of congress do to stop the continued killing of our children in schools, our teenagers at malls, our mothers at graduation parties, our families in church, our grandmothers in supermarkets, our friends at country music festivals? it looks like nothing. nothing to speak of. i just want to know, this so-called party of life, which is anything but, when will they ever respect the life of those who are actually drawing a breath? i don t know. it looks like never. but i will

In recent months, but big change coming up. You look outside right now and its not so bad. Its 61 degrees in boston. But that wind is already active eastnortheast 15 miles an hour. That is going to be with us throughout the day. Notice over the next 12 hours that wind gets stronger. Sustained winds near 20 at the coastline could gust higher. That will keep the clouds locked. Radar this morning, but a lot of times it sneaks under the radar. In the worcester area, visibility is running a quartermile. So not the greatest start. Mid 50s through Worcester County. Otherwise, weve got temperatures close to 60 along the coastline. Near us, that organized rain passing by south and east of nantucket. The northeasterly wind is the big story the next few days. Through the early part of the afternoon, better chance of patches of drizzle. I would have an umbrella today. You can see a lot of clouds, patches of drizzle and things dont change at lunchtime and they dont change into the afternoon. So, al

It is not clear where that investigation stands but nathan is back home and he has not been charged
Radar, but there are patches of drizzle this morning. You may not be seeing them showing up, but they are out there. Also, fog around the worcester area. Visibility a quartermile. Not an issue around boston or the coastline. Interior sections in the 40s and 50s, lower 60s along the coastline. You can see the clouds advance westward. That is a theme today as weve got a front offshore and the northeasterly wind is locking in the cool air. So low 60s this mo upper 50s to near 60 degrees. So temperatures hold steady or fall slightly this afternoon. Kind of a cool day. A lot of clouds. A couple of patches of mist and drizzle around noontime into the afternoon.
