center of circulation again moving away from haiti and moving up towards cuba and eventually into the bahamas. in terms of the potential path, here's the most likely scenario between now and early in the weekend. it moves in as a strong category 4 hurricane, tops sustained wind, 140 miles per hour. ti initially and then the steering current drive it through the bahamas wednesday into thursday. it takes aim on eastern florida thursday night, right through saturday, and even though the hurricane center track has it running close to southeastern parts of new england along about saturday night into early on sunday, there is a high probability that it will shift to the eastern half of that cone and work well out to sea. that is the most likely scenario, but there's still a us, that's why we're still in that cone come later saturday night into sunday. if we were to see any effect, it would be heavy rain and brief winds. but right now looks like it will shift to the east. we'll talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. josh: thanks. the potential effects of the hurricane are unclear in new hampshire, the red cross wants people to start thinking about getting prepared just in case it does impact us. mike cronin joins us live from the red cross blood reporter: the red cross is asking people to consider giving blood. hurricane matthew will likely cancel blood drives

manchester police jean: you've probably heard about this, creepy clowns popping up around the country have now caused a sear qulus scare in new hampshire. josh: police didn't find any evidence of danger, just a frightening prank that spread quickly across social media. jean: jennifer crompton has the story. reporter: in berlin, keene and here in durham, reports of alleged clown sightings blew up in social media monday night leaving some unnecessary u.n.h. police responded to reports of someone wearing a clown mask, using a bull horn to yell at a residence hall monday, but found nothing. at the same time there was a fire alarm act activation at another hall across campus, and cyber chatter went crazy. >> some of the the rumors that began circulating over social media that the campus was in lockdown, that somebody with a clown mask had a firearm, which twisting out of control. guy carter reading some of the tweets he got. >> apparently u.n.h. is on lockdown because there were three clowns running around on campus, one holding a knife. reporter: are people legitimately worried about this? >> yeah, people are freaking out. it from there's a clown, there's a group of clouds, there's weapons everywhere, it's just crazy. reporter: there are other clown related issues around massachusetts the same night. >> we hear a lot of things about other schools, i heard at merrimack there was one walking around with a rifle, this was scary, so i called my friends to tell them to stay inside and stuff. >> reality catching up. >> when i heard it was a rumor, these people are just clowning around. reporter: campus police say students should remember that a actual emergency. police remind us that it's not illegal to wear a clown mask or costume. and that we'll likely see more as we lead up to halloween. jennifer crompton, wmur news 9. josh: at least one creepy clown has turned out the be a publicity stunt thment video from western massachusetts was actually created by the makers of a, you guessed it, a haunted house. they've apologized to anyone who was truly scared connecticut has banned clown costumes this year because of all the scares around the country. with students planning halloween costumes, officials in new haven are blocking any clown outfits or other, quote, symbols of terror. jean: back to ma knew now, it's the worst hurricane to hit haiti in decades. officials are adding more tools to track this category 4 storm. josh judge is here now to complain. josh j.: that's right. that's what they've been doing over and over again at the folks who fly the hurricane hunter airlines. let's take a look at the latest flight they took today, they took off from the u.s. virgin islands and look at the circles and the back and forth passes that they make over and over again, they found a minimum surface pressure of 941 mill i bars and a minimum wind speed of 139 miles per hour, just a little bit earlier today. another flight through right now, multiple flights through. there's a look at the satellite, very impressive. you can see the size of of it affecting much of haiti, the dominican republic, cuba and now it has its sights set on the bahamas. it's still a category 4 storm, and by the way we now have two storms, there's not only hurricane matthew, we also have a little sister that was born is expected to remain quite weak and stay out to sea, perhaps affecting bermuda. but where is matthew going to go? a very complex question. milk mike with more on that. mike: we use the computer models to track it and give us an idea of where the storm will go and based on all the different computer models for the next 24 hours you notice how well defined the track is. most of the models all agree in a north between now and thursday, right through the heart of the bahamas as a strong category 3 or 4 hurricane. notice after that a couple models begin to pull off to the east, but many others work very close to florida. that's why hurricane watches are in effect for a good part of the sunshine state and the eastern half of from florida. after that it turns more to north as it's influenced by an area of low pressure building in across the northern tier of the united states. that will help to accelerate the northeast. exactly where that turn happens will dictate exactly where hurricane matthew goes. but the latest projection from the national hurricane center drives it towards eastern parts of florida thursday afternoon, early friday, and then through the carolinas and then the turn out to sea to the east. where will that turn happen? right now the odds favorite being along this line or to the southeast. that would mean very little effect on new hampshire. some rough surf a and also possibly a few showers later saturday night and sunday. it a you depends on how the jet stream digs in toward matthew saturday, saturday night and early sunday. if this backs down to the south and drives to it north, then we have greater impacts here saturday night into sunday. temperatures in the 60's. tonight it's 30's and 40's, a fall chill, no doubt about that. but a lot of warm air ready to build on in starting tomorrow afternoon, upper 60's to around 70 and then even warmer as we go into thursday, friday, and the start of the weekend. by the way, with the warmup, plenty of sunshine coming on in here as well. we've got lots of sun for your wednesday. more sunshine as we advance into thursday, by friday even warmer. we could make a run into the and then on saturday we start to see that front approach from the west. again that will be the driving mechanism in determining where matthew goes. right now that front alone could trigger a few scattered showers. any time during the day on saturday, still warm, in the 70's. then on sunday any leftover showers from the front or matthew will move out early in the day with rapid clearing. it will be a little breezy matthew were to come closer, those winds would be a little bit stronger. and then a classic fall chill builds in for later sunday into monday and even early on tuesday. so right now the shift in the trends over the last 12 to 18 hours have it about 60 to # 0 miles to the east, while some computer models have picked it well away from new england. it's still early the the game, it's only tuesday, and we're talking aboutr josh: these storms are unpredictable. mike: they, and at least the nuks couple days it bears watching. jean: at 5:30 this teacher says she wanted to make her students i think my strongest asset, maybe by far, is my temperament. i'd like to punch him in the face, i'll tell you. i would bomb the [bleep] out of 'em. and i wouldn't lose any voters, okay? and you can tell them to go [bleep] themselves. get him out of

means a lot to me. and i want to say, "thank you, annie." i'm annie kuster and i approve this message. josh: we asked congressional candidates, would you support expansion of the patriot act as a means to reduce the threat of domestic terrorism in this country? here are the answers from the second district candidates. >> this is where we need to have a balance. we have these profound american values of privacy and freedom from government intervention in free thought, in free speech. but what i do know is that we need to have robust intelligence about the threats that we face of this are these lone wolf attacks, and we keep seeing this pattern where somebody who is not stable because they lack mental health treatment but they have access to weapons, they have access to whatever it might take to seriously disrupt, kill dozens of people and seriously disrupt our lives, so i think one of the issues is that people in the terrorist watch list who threat, perhaps they've made an oath to isis, we've got to make sure that they don't have access to weapons of mass destruction and weapons that can kill dozens of people in the privacy of their lives, just going to a club or school or the movie theater. >> i support the united states constitution as the highest law in the land. i believe that every citizen of the united states has the right toshes the rights that are founding fathers understood clearly what they were doing when they wrote that document. many of them warned us about the specter of trading our rights and liberties for personal security. so, no, i would not

home when he heard gunshots this nearby field. at first noah, a gun owner himself be didn't think much of the gunshots as the open area near his home is often used for target practice, but that quickly changed. >> i noticed that the shots were coming my direction and they were closer than i heard in the past. reporter: you can hear those shots on video from his surveillance camera. when the shooting stopped, he yelled into the woods, hopino was downrange. when the shooter didn't respond he went inside his house and called police. >> i said can you please go to holly lane and let them know that they're shooting towards residential housing, i don't think they can hear me. i heard one hit the house. and i heard a few more in the trees. so i went upstairs and that's when i saw a bullet hole over my bed. reporter: just 20 minutes earlier, his wife meg had stood directly in line with the bullet >> immediately called the police back and said the situation has changed, one of the the bullets went through my house. reporter: police identified the shooter as 28-year-old brandon of lee who investigators say admits to shooting his pistol in the direction of plan char's house. >> he was in shock, he did not realize there were houses just downrange. reporter: he apologized and agreed to pay for repairs to the home. no one realizes -- noah realizes the shots could >> there's nothing wrong with target practice, nothing wrong with hunting, nothing wrong with shooting on your pro or open land, but you need to know what's behind it and you need to know the lethal range of whatever you're using. reporter: charges are likely to be filed in this case. suzanne roantree, wmur news 9. jean: the dartmouth dormitory where a fire broke out last weekend will stay closed for the

taken her has been found. josh: back to commitment 2016 coverage, we asked the senate u.s. be doing to fight isis and the threat of radical terror. >> we need to defeat isis and rad cam islamist terrorists and i believe that we need to more aggressively go after isis in their so-called al caliphate in iraq and syria, increasing our support for the kurds who are an effective fighting force on the ground, asking nato to step up and further enhance their isis in the region as well as the arab nations, and i also believe that we need to make sure that we are going after isis assets so that we give our men and women in uniform who are dropping bombs right now against isis targets the rules of engagement that allow them to take out those targets sooner. we waited almost a year to take out fuel trucks where we knew where they were. finally i would say we need to increase our intelligence capabilitiesau country, isis is using social media, so we need to go after them on social media, but also make sure that we're supporting our intelligence agencies to prevent attacks on our own country. >> el, it's clear we immediate to do more to defeat isis. we certainly felt the impact of their heinous acts of terror with the murders of james foley and steven sotloff. so what i've called for is intensifying air strikes and strengthening moderate forces like the kurds, increasing and improving our intelligence gathering capability, putting more pressure on russia and the international community to push for a political solution in syria, and then making sure that our congress develops a new authorization of use of military force, which would make it clear to the american people what it will take to defeat isis and also make it clear to the internationalmu are absolutely committed to doing it. and i'm very disappointed that the congress has yet to develop and pass a new authorization of use of military force. josh: you can find our entire series of questions for the

right at home with police say justin payne passed the written exam this year but wasn't fit enough for the requirements of the physical exam, so they say he had another man take that portion. but that

and it looks to continue for quite some time. take a look at what we can expect over the next several days, a pleasant pattern, that possibly early saturday. that means fair and cool nights and a warming trend taking over each day. matter of fact by the tail end of the week we could make a run into the upper 70's to around 80. then we watch the track on hurricane matthew, right now battering eastern parts of cuba and stretching up toward the bahamas, and about another short 12 to 24 hours from now. again pleasantly mild to cool across new hampshire today. we had country, while clouds did give way to clearing in parts of southern new hampshire, but still a few patchy clouds here or there. temperatures close to the average , in the upper 50's to lower to mid 60's. overnight tonight it will be chilly, in the upper 30's and lower 40's in many spots. just above frost levels. mid 40's at the coast and also in manchester, everyone else a little bit below that. but again as mentioned for the next few days look at all this warm air back to our west, it's back through minneapolis, st. paul, near 80 in st. louis today. and that's moving in our direction as we go through the next several days. now, beyond then, notice how much cooler it is in the northern rockies, a disturbance in between these two air masses will help dictate what happens to hurricane matthew. now moving slowly north through the caribbean and stretching up again toward cuba and the a few patchy clouds, they'll give way to clearing tonight and a fair a. sunshine the next few days. you're not going to see much in the waive excitement on future cast through thursday night, even friday and friday night. beyond that again it all depends on what happens with the hurricane. in terms of temperatures, today, tomorrow and the next few days we warm from the 60's into the 70's, and possibly near 80 friday afternoon into saturday, saturday afternoon and then a now top sustained winds 140 miles per hour. still a very strong catastrophic category 4 hurricane, moving slowly north, but increasing in forward speed just a little bit. now up to 9 to 10 miles per hour. over the next 24 to 48 hours notice how it veers to the west, affecting the bahamas through thursday afternoon. beyond that the likely track takes it right near the east coast of florida, thursday night, friday, friday night and then that disturbance i showed yock the cold and the warm begins to drive matthew more to the north and east. exactly when a turn happens will dictate whether we get rain or all we get is a few patchy clouds and a little breeze behind it for the second half of the weekend. so stay tuned to updates, we will not lock in a track by any stretch until at least tomorrow night or on thursday. up until that point beautiful weather through early saturday, afternoon. if we were to hear from matthew in terms of rain and gusty winds it would be saturday night and sunday, but right now most of that going to our south. jean:
