13
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:47.520
<v Speaker 4>A planthora of Amtrak delays earlier this week spells a

14
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:51.119
<v Speaker 4>wave of cautious optimism in Boston. They're a number thirty minute,

15
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:56.359
<v Speaker 4>thirty leaves. Okay, cool official say the signal problems that

16
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:00.640
<v Speaker 4>the root of the delays yesterday, are fixed. Thank God. No, no,

17
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:03.280
<v Speaker 4>nothing about that. Oh we got the help worm I

18
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.480
<v Speaker 4>like it, come with it. But it's still a shaky situation.

19
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.000
<v Speaker 4>Amtrak's's some regular service had to be canceled to beef

20
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:13.040
<v Speaker 4>up the other lines and residual delays can pop up

21
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:16.120
<v Speaker 4>around the Northeast Corridor. Here's hoping for the best and

24
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:25.319
<v Speaker 2>The City of Boston sticking with a controversial plan to

25
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.840
<v Speaker 2>rebuild an aging stadium in Franklin Park and make it

26
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Speaker 2>the new home of a woman's pro soccer team. Who's

<v Speaker 2>wbz's Hyle Shaffle With the latest sign sealed and not

28
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 2>yet delivered, I.

29
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 5>Am thrilled to share the City of Boston has signed

30
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:40.560
<v Speaker 5>a lease with Boston Unity Soccer Partners.

31
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:42.400
<v Speaker 6>The city has taken the next step in the White

32
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.760
<v Speaker 6>Stadium renovation saga. It's officially leased the space to Boston's

33
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.480
<v Speaker 6>future pro women's soccer team for at least a decade.

34
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:50.879
<v Speaker 6>BPS kids will still get to play at the rebuilt stadium,

35
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:52.640
<v Speaker 6>but they'll need to make room for the soccer team.

36
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:54.799
<v Speaker 6>Based on how the contract is written, the city seems

37
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.840
<v Speaker 6>to be leery of the job not getting finished.

38
00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.719
<v Speaker 5>Prior to demolition. Boston Unity will fund a twenty five

39
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.120
<v Speaker 5>million dollar construction escrow account restricted exclusively to fund direct

40
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:05.599
<v Speaker 5>construction costs on the site.

41
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.920
<v Speaker 6>City councilor ed Flynn and a coalition of city groups

42
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:10.240
<v Speaker 6>have come out against the plan, even filing a lawsuit.

43
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.039
<v Speaker 6>They think it costs too much and makes a public

44
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:14.840
<v Speaker 6>resource private, But Mayor Wu wants this done quick.

45
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.520
<v Speaker 5>The least commits us to have the full facility on

46
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:20.080
<v Speaker 5>the city side finished by December of twenty twenty six.

<v Speaker 6>Kyle Schaffele to BBZ Boston's news.

48
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Radio, it is showtime for a NASA probe looking to

49
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:28.599
<v Speaker 2>unveil the secrets of the Sun more.

50
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Than sixty years after it left Florida. With NASA's Parker

51
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Solar Probe, Parker will be just three point eight million

52
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.120
<v Speaker 1>miles away from the Sun. It doesn't sound that close,

53
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 1>but NASA Heliophysics Deputy Director Nikki Rail says, if you

54
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.039
<v Speaker 1>see the universe as a football field.

55
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:47.240
<v Speaker 2>We are within four yards of touchdown at the Sun

56
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:47.800
<v Speaker 2>right now.

57
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:51.479
<v Speaker 1>Parker is also the fastest moving human made object in history,

58
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>at about four hundred and thirty thousand miles per hour.

59
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:56.719
<v Speaker 1>At that rate, you could go from New York to

60
00:02:56.840 --> 00:03:00.199
<v Speaker 1>Tokyo in about a minute. Siders hope to learn moreo

61
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:03.439
<v Speaker 1>solar storms that can disrupt communications here and could be

62
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>dangerous to astronauts. And deep space, adding that the data

63
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>already sent back Rail says after traveling hundreds of millions of.

64
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:12.719
<v Speaker 4>Miles, Parker's ready for primetime.

65
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Peter Kings, CBS News at the Kennedy Space Center.

66
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:21.719
<v Speaker 2>We are looking at the Norrad Santa tracker showing Santa

67
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>over Thailand right now, and he's delivered one point seven

68
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:29.599
<v Speaker 2>billion gifts so far. Let's check our weather now snow

69
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:34.240
<v Speaker 2>ending from the northwest to southeast across the area. By

70
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.560
<v Speaker 2>midday today, we'll see accumulations of a coding to an

71
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:40.680
<v Speaker 2>inch that is just enough to make it slow and

72
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.599
<v Speaker 2>slippery out there for travel. Not so cold this afternoon.

73

<v Speaker 2>light snow over parts of southeast Massachusetts. Right now it's

86
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:35.639

87
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.720
<v Speaker 2>asking residents to do their part to shovel Boston sidewalks.

88
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:42.519
<v Speaker 3>Boston's Public Works Department says they're all over the case,

89
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 3>monitoring calls and posts around the clock, but it's a

90
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.160
<v Speaker 3>partnership between homeowners and the city to keep sidewalks clear.

91
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:52.800
<v Speaker 3>A spokesperson for the Public Works Department says, quote, property

92
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 3>and business owners are responsible for clearing snow, slush, and

93
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.360
<v Speaker 3>ice from sidewalks and pedestrian ramps that about their property

94
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:02.600
<v Speaker 3>within three hours of snowfall ending or three hours after

95
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 3>sunrise if it snows overnight. Kirsten just wants to see

96
00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 3>her streets in safer condition for all of the walkers.

97
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.600
<v Speaker 5>I think I'm you know, I wish my neighbors would

98
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.360
<v Speaker 5>do really a better job of shoveling or at least

99
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:17.879
<v Speaker 5>putt e sal their sand down.

100
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:21.120

101
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 3>her pop.

105
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 2>fell through the ice on Arlington Reservoir. This happened yesterday.

106
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Emergency crews were able to save the teen after the

107
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:44.319
<v Speaker 2>boy's father was unsuccessful. The teen appeared to be okay,

108
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:47.600
<v Speaker 2>but had to be evaluated on the scene. The town

109
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:51.360
<v Speaker 2>is reminding people to not walk out on the ice,

110
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.399

00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:02.839
<v Speaker 2>This after she went off the trail with her ten

113
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:05.839
<v Speaker 2>year old son. The Globe reports a woman was writing

114
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.160
<v Speaker 2>a rented snowmobile in a group tour. She failed to

115
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:12.319
<v Speaker 2>make a downhill left hand turn and crashed into a

116
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.839
<v Speaker 2>tree inside of a ditch. The woman from Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts,

117
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 2>was taken to a local hospital with head injuries. Her son,

118
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:23.920

<v Speaker 7>A spokesperson says the former president had a fever and

121
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:34.120
<v Speaker 7>is now undergoing some testing at Georgetown University Medical Center.

122
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.959
<v Speaker 7>He is said to be in good spirits. The former

123
00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:40.279
<v Speaker 7>president does have a history of heart issues, having had

124
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:45.120
<v Speaker 7>a quadruple bypass after leaving office. The spokesperson said Clinton

125
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:47.879
<v Speaker 7>deeply appreciates the excellent care he is receding.

126
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:53.000
<v Speaker 2>The former President's condition not believed to be urgent. And
