I think most of rain drops probably hold off until about 3, 4 oclock in the afternoon. And then there will be a burst of some steady rainfall on the way for mid evening tomorrow. Through overnight tomorrow night. Most towns with todays rain picked up about a quarter to a half an inch of rain. I think there will be more on way with this next weather system. More likely to see upwards of an inch of rain good news is i think its later in day tomorrow, and tomorrow night. So that will buy us some time to get out and about and do what you have to do. If travel for you tomorrow first part i dry if youre moving out of new england and heading south, youll have rainy commute all way down 95 through southeast. And yes this will over sweep southern new england late tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow night. Warmer weather though on way for christmas eve. Well talk more about that coming up.

Accused of a kidnapping her own children. Prosecutors say 47yearold Valerie Mcgrath did not return the two Young Children to their father on sunday after a scheduled visit. Police eventually stopped her in the kids yesterday at mcdonalds in raynham. The mother is now facing four serious charges including parental kidnapping. Children had a happy reunion with their dad in his lakeville home last night. Both of kids are fine. Their mother will be in jail for christmas. Her Attorney Says she took children because she feared for a fare fight mbta rides could getting more expensive now were learning some employees or racking up overtime pay. T fares could go up by as much 10 percent as soon as july. Mbta faces a potential 242 million deficit in the next fiscal year. A big reason for that is all the money they are paying out in salary and overtime. Nearly a quarter of all t worker are making 100,000 a year or more. Rail operators make 30 percent more that. National averageand Bus Operators make 50 percent higher than the national average. In most extreme camp a maintenance foreman made 315,000 in 2015. He was able to more than triple his base salary because of back pay that was owed him and working 2648 hours of overtime. Now taking a look at the recent controversy in the race for the white house. Donald trump going after Hillary Clinton calling out the democratic president ial candidate for losing the and some say his language is vulgar. She was going to be beat he shoe favored to win she got schlonged she lost. It important to stand up to bullies where every they are. And why we shouldnt let anybody bully his way into presidency. Trump received backlash for his comments and tonight he took things to twitter denying the use of using sexual vulgar words. He says main extreme media gave if false meaning. Army Sargent Bowe Bergdahl in court accused a desertion and misbehavior before the enemy for which he could receive a life sentence. The judge read bergdahl his rights today and sergeant deferred any motion he will back in Court January 12th. It was last year when bergdahl was released by taliban through Prisoner Exchange after 2009. Also from the night team, from federal government to massachusetts statehouse, 7 political director andy hillers goes won oun one with charlie year in office and whats ahead. Heres andy with tonight hiller instinct. Hello governor. You getter go easy on me has it year. Charlie baker was swo rn in january. Within months, he was being called the most popular politician in america. Which was quite a turn around for a candidate who had run a competent but char ris maktcally convince people you would be a good manager. So this they would overlook certain character flaws . Shortcomings. Shortcomings, okay. Im im clearly better and i would agree with that on and im more comfortable in role of manager then i probably in role of candidate. He knows hell never be donald trump, and he doesnt want to be. I am boring. Im okay with that. I think too much passes for political discourse these days its not productive. It might be interesting and it might be clever. But it doesnt really get us anywhere. Unexpectedly, the t has become his signature issue. There might as well a snow covered mbta train stuck on the top of the statehouse. When you came in here, you were saying im not even the t. The ts not me. Now, which by way happened to be true. But now you are the t. Now i am the t. Yeah. Thats true. To be fair, theres been more than the t. Made a ton of progress on opoid issues. We have a long way to go. And we made a ton of progress on fiscal startup earned income tax credit that gave fore00,000 familieses in massachusetts mostly headed by single women a big tax benefit when they file their tax returns. I think were doing fine. But it always comes back to mbta what has you accomplish ad democratic governor wouldnt . I think a democratic governor mbta reforms passed that we got passed which were really important to fixing what whats wrong there. Then there was run away red line train. My first thought was, you know sort of omg, followed by i hope nobody gets hurt. And then, thankfully, no one did. Look at charlie bakers future and the t couldnt be bigger. If it runs so will he. Please note, theres also a t in reelection. Im andy hiller, thats my instinct. And theres much more to come from the night team. Up next, lights out in dorchester.
