said you need to wear heavy coat. got one for christmas. hat, gloves. these are things that the kids have not been wearing. emily: dig them out. cindy: back to school today will be a shock to the system because we have wind and cold coming in. the coldest air of the entire season moving in today, and that's going to drop the wind chills so by tomorrow morning, wind chill s are going to be down below zero and all the while we are going to see ocean-effect snow along the coastline, in particular the cape. that's where i think it could accumulate to more than an inch. this is where we do have a winter weather advisory starting late this morning around 11:00 a.m. and going through tomorrow morning. as that snow comes down, it will reduce the visibility and make for slippery driving conditions as well. keep that in mind if you're on the cape. elsewhere, it's going to be dry. you can see on the radar this morning, the only snow to speak of are a couple of flurries that are not even reaching the ground here along the route 2 corridor in worcester county and a few more here back toward the berkshires. outside of that, there are patchy clouds moving on through and mixing with the clear skies but what we have happening is a front. this is the leading edge of much colder air working on in. you can see to the north single digits in syracuse right now. it is zero. that's the temperature, not the wind chill, in ottawa so although we're sitting at 32 in boston right now, that cold is coming in. i want you to notice these temperatures. upper 20's to around freezing. this is where the temperatures stay through the morning hours. and then they start to drop this afternoon as that wind picks up out of the north and northwest it is going to pull in that colder air so the temperatures hold steady or drop throughout the day. and the winds are going to be increasing too. by late morning they're up around 15 miles per hour. winds out of the north 15-20 miles per hour this afternoon so it's turning windy, turning colder. temperatures hold steady or slowly drop throughout the day. what that will do is make it feel colder. if you're going to be heading out around lunchtime beings wind chills will be in the single digits and teens. that will be the case during the afternoon hours as well. this is what you need to dress for as you're heading out this morning. the cold coming in this afternoon. by 8:00 p.m., the wind chill is going to be down below zero out through worcester county and it's headed there even in boston by the morning. so all the while we're talking about the cold coming in. as that wind picks up out of the north. it will allow ocean-effect bands of snow to start to generate. because the wind is going to go more north or northwest it's not an issue for the bulk of the coastline. cape ann to cape cod is the primary areas where i expect to see those. once those bands start to set up, they'll be persistent through this evening during the overnight even into first thing tomorrow morning before they start to wind on down. we're talking about a coating to an inch. cape ann through plymouth county. as you get toward the cape, there could be one to locally up to four inches of snow in some of the more persistent bands. look of these temperatures overnight. single digits down to about 11 in boston. cold stuff coming in. it is with us through the day tomorrow and then as the high starts to shift eastward, milder air moves in by wednesday we're back up around 40 degrees in the afternoon. but you saw those wind chills overnight out the door tomorrow morning. wind chills sub zero and the wind chill itself not going to get out of the single dinl its until probably about the early afternoon tomorrow so cold stuff here the next couple of days. and then we'll moderate those temperatures back in the 40's wednesday into thursday. friday looks dry. it looks like a messy mix of rain and possibly some snow on the way next weekend. in the meantime we get you out to the roads. jeff, how are we looking out there? jeff: so far so good but it will be a busy morning. i can promise you that. everybody is coming back to work, going back to school. that means a lot of traffic on the roadways. right now it's very quiet. you see the leverett connector and the zakim bunker hill bridge both moving very nicely coming into the city i'd say about a half hour or so we'll see the crush of traffic. the turnpike is looking good. only 16 minutes from 495 to 128. metro west traffic is fine. up towards the north it's a good ride on 93. it's 15 or 10 minutes between 495 and 128. that northern swing of 128 is also moving without delay. the mbta should be starting out without any problems as they get back to you. president obama is preparing for a critical meeting on gun he'll meet today with attorney general loretta lynch. potential executive orders to strengthen the nation's gun laws. background checks required for gun
