bit overnight which is a good thing dropping. what a soaker yesterday, huh? emily: side ways rain. totals. a lot of spots coming in over two inches nantucket. brewster down on the cape. milford in southern worcester county over to, we had two inches north of boston up in haverill. boston just over an inch and a third. so, yeah, we had our share of rain yesterday. we need it. look at these temperatures. it was so warm. we set a slew of records across the northeast. boston jumped up to 58. worcester, providence setting records. portland, maine. hartford, connecticut, got to 61 degrees yesterday. so we had the warmth all brought in here, of course, by the wind which did gust 40 to over 50 miles per hour across the area. pretty wild storm. those winds are still active this morning. we're still getting gusts over 20 and 30 miles per hour. coming from now. they're coming from the west. that is bringing in dryer air and it's bringing in colder air as well. but those winds are going to make it feel like it's in the 20's all day long so wind chills an issue today. we are going to see some sunshine though. that will be a nice change of pace after the stormy weekend. and it is short lived because by tomorrow evening, we're talking about a little round of some light snow getting on in here. you can see things pretty quiet now. the skies are in the process of clearing out. lake-effect snow bands coming across the lake. these will focus across new york state and northern new england today as we have high pressure settling in. that's why the sunshine. but our system that brings in the snow tomorrow, it's a very fast-moving little clipper system. it's going to race towards us very quickly by the end of the day tomorrow. look at the cold though. i'm sure you heard about that game with the vikings and the seahawks. it was six below zero at kick-off for that game. it's still search below zero in minneapolis now. this is the cold working on in. the temperatures this morning a little deceptive. notice we're close to 40 degrees right around freezing out in worcester county. with that westerly wind today, the temperatures actually drop so we may be in the upper 30's this morning in boston but by noontime, we're down to the freezing mark. that's about where we hold through the afternoon with that westerly wind. 15-20 miles per hour. don't dress for these values in the 30's. you want to dress for those wind chills getting no higher than the 20's throughout the day but again at least we'll see some sunshine. we have the wind today, but the skies are going to be bright. you can see on future cast here just a few clouds throughout the day. we're in great shape today, and the skies stay mainly clear overnight. that will allow the temperatures to drop. it will be cold tonight. teens to lower 20's by the time you're heading out the door tomorrow morning. and it's a dry start with maybe a little hint of sunshine tomorrow morning. and then notice how the clouds fill in by lunchtime. look at that by 3:00 in the afternoon, we are breaking out to rain and snow showers across the area. close to the coastline, i think, it will be warm enough that it's primarily rain initially. notice by the evening commute at 6:00 p.m. we have a little snow working through worcester county. toward the coastline bill late tomorrow evening. i don't expect much more than a coating to an inch of snow through tomorrow night. but once you get outside of 128 out through worcester county especially, we could see one to maybe two inches of snow by wednesday morning. wednesday features clearing skies. gusty winds. look at the temperatures. as we head into wednesday and thursday, we're going to be hovering near the freezing mark. by friday it still looks like bright sunshine, dry weather. as we head toward next week end, a little concern here. we have a system that will be nearby. commuter models not converging on a solution just yet in terms of where it tracks. at this point we could see rain or snow. the patriots are down at on saturday. olessa: kind of important. cindy: we have all week to watch it. olessa: so far a fairly quiet start on the roadways across the span of the zakim bridge where that overnight construction just picked up heading into boston. let's go to maps though. one incident south of town in kings stong. northbound route 3 by route 3a, a tractor trailer accident with the fuel spill. plan accordingly if that's where your commute takes you. i'll let you know when that clears. no problems on 24, 95, the expressway. looking good into boston as well as that construction just about picked up there 93 south at the zakim. pike is quiet this morning. no problems as you make your north of town. so far we're expecting the trains and the buss to start the morning on schedule. emily. emily: olessa, thank you. we're hearing for the first time from a women's hockey player who suffered a severe spinal injury during the winter classic. denna laing posted this picture on facebook, taken hours before the boston pride took the ice at gillette stadium on new year's eve. laing crashed head-first into the boards during the first period. she writes, "for a long time i have been looking for a new challenge. even though i was not expecting it be this. here we go. i don't want you to feel bad for me. this is a moment to
