The ship came in last night but because a lot of the passengers on board did not have flights or a way to get home most of the 4500 actually stayed on the ship overnight and weve been speaking with a lot of them here today.

Hes referring to Royal Caribbeans offer for 50 off another cruise for all passengers as well as a full reimbursement for this trip. It should never have happened and we are looking for any possible way to improve our processes. Not everyone is as open to the apology. Terrible. It was horrifying. But we made it through. So thats all that matters. We want to go home. Now most of the passengers did in fact commend the captain and the crew.

Dangerous if folks arent ready for it and uncomfortable obviously but be mindful of the mechanical parts of your life. This is interesting i want to share what happened with dan. Hes got 27 degrees in west bury and a little bit of snow last night but the sun just dried it up. Whats interesting a fellow weather watcher far cooler 17 degrees for sherry same deal. A little snow squall but then the sun breaks through and melts it away. These numbers though this is what everybody is talking about. 24 degrees feels like 10 and tammie here at 23 feeling it right outside the front coor. So ill tell you what i like what they say stay nice and warm and think warm thoughts. Makes you want to just purr. Heres the deal dont forget the pets this weekend. It will be hard on them. Theyll need extra water limiting your time outside and fantasy for some as you have to out. Right now 26 wind out of the northwest at 30 Miles Per Hour. Numbers around the area, 24, 26 for the jersey shore, 25 in, 22 in sussex. Hes are air temperature readings. A bigger view for you just to show you turn around 12 in buffalo. With the wind the chill in buffalo is 6 degrees below 0. Close to home sullivan, orange, rockland single digit wind chills. The wind chill in new york is 18 and philly is 10 so 28 wont feel like it and way below normal of 41. 65 and below your record sunset at 5 25. Its a mix of sun and clouds and for many of us its 10 to 15 on average and some will see 15 to 20 as we are right now at 18 degrees. Tonight into saturday wind saturday during the day 10 to 10 below, 0 to 15 below. Want to set the stage. Both saturday and sunday highs around 19. The mechanics though you hit the high early on saturday and then the wind will fill in so the really cold period will be overnight saturday into sunday. Records in jeopardy. Sadly yes. Newark could break one. Laguardia close but may not see one. Very close call in central park. Likely a new record with a sub zero air temperature reading. Also jfk could see new records. The bottom line is those wind chills sunday morning, 15 to 25 degrees below zero will not be uncommon at all. Further to the north those numbers continue to go down. So snow coming down. Another quick cavot. These snow squalls blind you and then they just leave a quick coating and they are gone so thats not as big of a slippery surfaces and get ready for the cold. I cannot believe how cold it is. Big change yeah. Thanks john. Well a wish came true for an iron man fan. See how this nineyearold battling cystic f. B. I. Rose yes saved the day and the from Robert Downey junior. Im chris bosh. When i was sidelined with blood clots in my lung, it was serious. Fortunately, my doctor had a game plan. Treatment with xarelto. Hey guys hey, finally, somebody i can look up to. Besides arnie. Xarelto is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. Xarelto is also proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, theres limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. You know, i tried warfarin, but the blood testing and dietary restrictions. Dont get me started on that. I didnt have to. We started on xarelto. Nice pass. Safety first. Dont stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto may increase your sk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto , watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto , tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. You know xarelto is the 1 prescribed blood thinner in its class. Thats a big win. It is for me. With xarelto there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary strictions. Treatment with xarelto. Was the right move for us. Coming up on cbs 2 news beginning at 5 why would someone install a stop sign in the middle. Thats what they want to know. And at 6 without standing warrants thats the proposal for city council. Theres a lot of opposition. The stories and much more tonight on cbs 2 news beginning at 5. A sick little boy with superhero dreams gets the chance to be iron boy for the day. This nineyearold battling Cystic Fibrosis got to forget about his life threatening disorder and suit up for an adventure. He made a Daring Rescue and kept the city safe from the bad guys. The story caught the attention of actor Robert Downey junior who plays iron man on the big screen. I dont do this often but im making you an honorary member of the avengers. Back in 2013 when the city teamed up with the make a Wish Foundation to grant the boys wish to become bat man for the day drawing worldwide attention. We remember that. That was a great story but that young little iron boy did you see him save that woman. Well done. Real quick before we go just again you got to be careful out there it is really cold. The snow squalls is a feature but the bigger feature the arctic air a break tomorrow and it gets cold this weekend. Thanks for joining us im mary calvi
