Rescued from the water underneath the broadway bridge. Boston police tell us two men were intoxicated and fell into the water and had to be rescued. Theyre being treated by ems, this is an area where Homeless People sometimes hang out. We dont know if the men rescued were, in fact, homeless. Our partner carl stevens saw a Police Officer being taken away on a stretcher. Were working to find out more on what happened to him. Turning our attention to the weather now. It will be a holiday to weather. You like your christmas cheer with a slight of spring. Its going to be cooler temperatures for christmas day. Its not like were going to break records in new england. Were breaking records from texas to maine to michigan, impressive warmth in the eastern third of the nation. Its mild today as well. 50 degrees in the city of boston, its close to 60 in taunton.

Some of the heaviest rain we will find a live storm shore. Lets go down and find some of these spots here and Rockport Woburn in it and also here to local seeing some heavy rain. Less of it oxford, douglas and spencer showing where some of that heaviest rain is. Were seeing this happen here to manchester then into keen, New Hampshire, and eastward into central Southern New Hampshire its not the whole story though. This system stretches to our south as a warm front pushes on through. Actually go up toward daybreak. Then the cold front part of the system back here is the part thats causing Severe Weather and tornadoes and the other part of the country. But look at this its actually snow on the back side of this. The reported temperatures come right along with it. Deadly tornadoes are ripping across the south right now. 14 twisters have been reported in mississippi alone. Right now at least three people are dead including a young child. God is going to show us some a good in here somehow
Time. As you look at just last three hours here on storm scan three the purple is new the bigger issue. In other word snow is taking over as colder air bleed from north west tsouth east in our region. If it hasnt change over yet it is just a matter of time. You can see there are pulses where you you have darker shade of purple, that is radar 101. We have steadier pockets of snow currently falling and moving through at a quick clip but we are far from finished with this, folks.
