few hours all the rain some spots did get over an inch, including the concord area. now just about three quarters of an inch below the average for the month of november. so we put a little dent in the deficit for this month. how about these high temperatures today, keep in mind the average is 47 south. low 50's north. 57 in concord, 10 above the average, and it did hit 60 right along the coastline. this will be the warmest we'll see through the next several days, as some cooler air is on the way. speaking of cooler, already down in the 30's in the upper valley and great north woods. on average in the lower 50's from concord points south. it will be chilly overnight, not as warm as last night where many spots held in the 40's and 50's. tonight we're back into the cool zone of the 20's and very low 30's. speaking of cool, much colder air sitting back in the plains states and midwest helping to spawn that snowstorm in places like wisconsin, and also down into the great lakes. that's moving northeast at least for now. so we enjoy seasonably cooler air and then we do get much colder along about early next week. so here's that snow setting up shop in southern minnesota, down into iowa, pressing up towards wisconsin and chicago. but we will not get in on the snowy side of this storm as it weakens and moves through on sunday, it will pass to our north and that's a warm track for new hampshire. right now tracking fair skies, lots of sun for your saturday. sunday the cloud will likely win the battle over sun, and there could be a couple of widely scattered showers, but the heaviest rain will be off shore and where it's just cold enough could be a couple of mixed or snow showers the the mountains. beyond that it's dry and chilly as we go into early next week. back to out even slightly below the average. clear skies, seasonably cold tonight, lots of sun, cooler tomorrow but very pleasant. a couple degrees above average but not as warm as today. couple of widely scattered showers on sunday. but temperatures again making a run near 50. then the late november classic chill moves in for monday, tuesday, early wednesday, it's bright and warmer, could be near 50

them. >> we've already gotten several calls specifically one from a well to do family that wants to take their kids out to the parade and then to go walk around central park and have lunch afterwards,

worst months for lost bags, thanks to a combination of crowded planes and weather delays. the industry says now most of these bags really aren't lost, they're just delayed, and the getting better. mostly thanks to technology. >> think of the gate agents, the ability to print out tags right there at the gate as you're boarding the plane, so that a bag that gets put under at the last second doesn't get lost. they've also given the people who drive the drug tugs from one plane to another technology so that there's a gate change at the last second, that driver knows where to go so your bag doesn't miss the connection. jean: there are a few things you can do, get to the airport early so your luggage has plenty of time to get on the plane and put a copy of your itinerary inside the suitcase, that way even if the tags get ripped off the airline knows how to find you. we told you earlier that american airlines had lost the prosthetic leg made for a marathon bombing surveyor,

sound and other sensory cues to stimulate memory in people with alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. >> the benefits of reminiscence therapy is that it taps into memories that are well learned. it's not so much that they're old memories, it's that their well learned memories, memories that are attached not just to fact but also to smell, to images, to music. reporter: chris boyce visits her

mike: lots of clouds earlier today, rain last night, but most of them moving out in time for the morning commute. except right at the coast, and that's where we take you for time lapse in portsmouth today. around 7:30 the cloud and showers lingering along the shore, and the clouds were stubborn to mid to late morning before clearing out along the shore oh. the west, sunshine developed early and temperatures started to climb, well above the average today by at least 8 to 10 degrees in many spots. clear skies continue to move in from the west right now, and as that builds on in towards new hampshire it's driving the latest system out to sea to our east. an inch plus of rain family in many spots last night and early this morning. but clear, colder weather built in for tonight, 20's for many, a few low 30's in manchester and the coast. then a bright and cooler saturday, but seasonably so, still a couple notches above the average. by sunday the next system could produce a couple widely scattered showers, mixed in the mountains, then a dry and colder start to next week before it warms just in time for the thanksgiving holiday. we're still hanging onto 51 in exeter. hampton falls at 50. a few upper 30's in the lake sunapee zone. lakes region in the 40's, and same story through the southern white mountains. a little colder farther north. overnight tonight notice with future temperatures we start to see them thumb blink lower than last night. on average it will bottom out in the mid to upper 20's and low 30's. tomorrow plenty of sunshine, a nice start to the weekend, not as warm as today but still a couple degrees above average. then that changes on sunday as the next front moves in. it will be just warm enough, so mainly rain showers as i see it right now, some of the higher elevations could get a touch of wet snow mixing this, then it will dry out later in the day. once that moves through, well, looks fairly dry and chilly to start off next week. take a look at region by region tomorrow, we'll be in the upper 40's from manchester through nashua towards the coast. a little cooler. some of the higher terrain, keene about 47 or 48. valley through the heart of the lakes region, concord over towards rochester, similar temperatures through a good part of the lakes region, again seasonably so. not all that bad in and the winds not too strong as well. lower 40's far north, fall again later tomorrow night. but not as cold as tonight. it's 20's for many, a fairly nice weekend again. minor interruption on sunday with a couple widely scattered showers, then beyond that system behind it it turns much colder, so highs only in the low 40's, feeling a bit cooler with the breeze, more sun on tuesday, could be the coldest morning so far and you notice temperatures climb in time for thanksgiving and friday. tom: looks like a great forecast. jean: thanks, mike. tom: before the national turkey actually flies to the white house for its pardon, it actually has to win the title. jean: you might win the title with those moves. the judges who make that choice look a little different than only 10 years old. those california fifth graders saw a dozen turkey finalists strut their stuff. their decision gets a little help from professional farmers, eventually choosing one lucky winner, tom won -- tom one will take a special flight. turkey one from san fran to d.c., after the presidential pardon tom one will spend the rest of his life at a park in virginia. >> celtics open their series tonight at the garden, boston 3-1 in the last four
