Weve got to talk about this weekend eats weather. We weekends weather. To get through. The first third of the weekend affected. What are we dealing with . Most of us are dealing with mostly rain. However, there can be a bit of freezing drizzle or rain in our and Western Areas for a little while. The higher elevations, especially, and possibly the worcester hills, could be getting wet snow accumulations out of this, even though it may start really as rain. And southeastern mass and the cape will have a period of strong winds tomorrow morning. All of this ends before the big game tomorrow. Lets set it up, with boston, right now. Wind off the water. Water temperatures, 45. Were going to have an ocean wind certainly into tomorrow certainly spells rain for boston. If theres going to be any i doubt it, it will be very late in the we might see wet snow mix in. However, when you go north and west of boston, you see the temperatures a little under, at or above freezing. So thats the problem potentially later on tonight when the rain or drizzle or freezing drizzle starts. It could make some surfaces slippery. But southeastern mass and the capes are going to stay above freezing because of that warm ocean water temperature. These are the potential icy areas. Parts of southern New Hampshire, north, central, western mass. This would be later on tonight, into very, very early tomorrow morning. Not widespread but possibly in thats a precaution. Now, the rest of this winter also could deal with the fact that there may be the higher elevations. Heres the storm itself. Doesnt have a whole lot of cold air to work with. You see a little bit of snow in some of the mountains of west virginia. But the lower elevations are all raining. Storm takes a favorable track. Ordinarily for snow, but weve really dont have it near the coast at the surface anymore either. Heres the rain approaching. This could be freezing rain. When you see it as the white or blue or purple, that would be the snow. Theres the region in New Hampshire and some of the mountains of vermont. Maybe even eastern mass, a heavier burst late tomorrow morning. Then it ends early tomorrow afternoon, safely before the start of the game. Snowfall accumulations, best chance, a few inches, especially the northern berkshires and maybe the higher worcester hills. Just a chance there could be a mix with snow for a little part of the storm tomorrow morning in areas farther to the east. In terms of wind, tomorrow morning there will be a period of strong winds on the cape. See the gusts in nantucket . Thats 7 00 a. M. 10 30 a. M. Then the winds quiet down after noon. Miles an hour early, maybe 8 Miles Per Hour by the end of the the bitter cold from canada is coming down for early next week. Start to saturday finish. Rs on sunday, it will kind of be in between weather systems. It will be chilly, not terribly cold. Late sunday night, monday night, some of us will get flurries or squalls, then bitter cold will move in. Thereafter. Ill see you later on now, sportscenter 5 with bob halloran. Hey, everybody, were live at Gillette Stadium tonight. Injuries have been a part of the patriots regular season. Why should that change heading into the playoffs . Tempering the good news that Julian Edelman will return is the other news that Rob Gronkowski has been missing practices this week due to knee and back issues. Gronk was limited at practice again today and is listed as questionable for tomorrows certainly we expect gronk to play. Its the playoffs, after all but he missed practice on tuesday and thursday and was limited on monday, wednesday and friday, so hes obviously dinged up. The patriots are obviously not at 100 . This snowball effect, game is out of hand, just what happened last week at houston, before you know it, theyve got a sevenpoint lead and then you already feel like, man weve got to start getting back into this game.

First of all, you know, a lot of people have probably seen u. F. C. On t. V. Its great on t. V. But im telling you, it is the most exciting live sporting event youll ever see.

One of the reasons that the u. F. C. Has become as big and popular as we have. We put on an incredible live show. Nobody walks out going, nah, i dont think i ever want to see this again. Is this a good area for your sport . Its great. First of all, personally i, you know, im connected to boston and i love it here. But second of all, this is such a massive sports town.
