00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:13.400
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, six o'clock and a get ready for impact

3
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:16.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of morning here in Boston. It is Thursday, and

4
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.120
<v Speaker 2>we've got cloudy skies in forty eight degrees and some

5
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:21.120
<v Speaker 2>of the rain is now starting to pop up here

6
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:23.320
<v Speaker 2>and there. The News at six brought to us by

7
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Speaker 2>you're a New England Toyota dealer, your hybrid all wheel

8
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:29.280
<v Speaker 2>drive headquarters. Thanks for being here today. I'm Jeff Brown

9
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:32.240
<v Speaker 2>and Boston. You're being sent to the minor leagues.

10
00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Windy and raw today, with rain heavy at times, particularly

11
00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:38.560
<v Speaker 1>this after the early tonight. The temperature staying in the forties.

12
00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:42.159
<v Speaker 2>At is WZ ACTU weather meteorologist Joe Lundberg. Gradual improvement

13
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:46.079
<v Speaker 2>begins tomorrow. But as wbz's Drew m'holland tells us, first thing,

14
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:48.079
<v Speaker 2>brace yourself.

15
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh Jeffrey, as I walk to get my morning coffee,

16
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:53.759
<v Speaker 3>it's a little bit brisk out here. Actually the sky

17
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.359
<v Speaker 3>is pretty spooky too to start the morning. Those clouds

18
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 3>are a little a little bit scary, but that's kind

19
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.640
<v Speaker 3>of what we're dealing with today and the first part

20
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:03.240
<v Speaker 3>of this Memorial Day weekend.

21
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:05.359
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, a lot going on in the sea too.

22
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:07.439
<v Speaker 3>I know this Red Sauce game tonight, a lot of

23
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 3>graduations of course, Boston calling. But I'm an optimistic guy,

24
00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:13.439
<v Speaker 3>Jeff Right. So here's the thing. You can let the

25
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 3>weather get you down. It's all gonna be fine. Sometimes

26
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.840
<v Speaker 3>the rain even adds to things, right, it makes a

27
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:18.560
<v Speaker 3>little more fun.

28
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:19.079
<v Speaker 1>Who knows.

29
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 4>That's my take on it.

30
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, The clouds are spooky though, no doubt about it.

31
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.840
<v Speaker 3>From Medford Drew mohollan WBZ, Boston's news radio.

32
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thanks for nothing, drew another all nighter on Capitol

33
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:33.439
<v Speaker 2>Hill and nothing to show for it. Yet the House

34
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.079
<v Speaker 2>continues to burn the candle at both ends to close

35
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:39.799
<v Speaker 2>the deal on President Trump's Big, Beautiful budget bill, now

36
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:42.480
<v Speaker 2>out of committee and headed to a full House vote,

37
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.400
<v Speaker 2>but still there are holdouts among the GOP. The President

38
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 2>has tried a tush push of sorts with reluctant members

39
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:52.400
<v Speaker 2>with threats that failure to jump on board might impact

40
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 2>their future in the political party. The budget would slash

41
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:58.079
<v Speaker 2>medicaid funding as a major way to pay for an

42
00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:01.480
<v Speaker 2>extension and expansion of tax cuts introduced during the president's

43
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>first administration. A vote is expected sometime later this morning.

44
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 2>As America relives its revolutionary past, you can celebrate in

45
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:10.400
<v Speaker 2>your own way.

46
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.240
<v Speaker 5>A new license plate from the R and V is

47
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:15.439
<v Speaker 5>available to honor the nation's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary.

48
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.919
<v Speaker 5>The new plate is stunning with a blue background which

49
00:02:17.919 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 5>also features seventeen seventy six and the number two fifty.

50
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.319
<v Speaker 5>You can order online starting today for the standard hundred dollars,

51
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.960

00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Good socks get clipped at Fenway. The Mets take the

54
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 2>finale of a three game SAT NHL Western Conference Finals.

55
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.039
<v Speaker 2>The Dallas Stars battled back to steal game one over

56
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.919
<v Speaker 2>the Oilers NBA Eastern Conference Finals. The Pacers top the

57
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 2>Knicks to take a one game to none lead, and

58
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.280
<v Speaker 2>the speculation that Bill Belichick is about to marry a

59
00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:52.199
<v Speaker 2>woman almost fifty years younger than he hits the high seas.

60
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.840
<v Speaker 6>After a New York Times report this week that someone

61
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.759
<v Speaker 6>close to Jordan Hudson said her and Bill were engaged

62
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.039
<v Speaker 6>to be married. There's now photos surface sing on TMZ

63
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:05.479
<v Speaker 6>showing Bill Belichick's beloved boat, Doctor De Harbor with a

64
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:08.280
<v Speaker 6>fresh new code of paint and a fresh new name.

65
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:13.039
<v Speaker 6>It's now called one plus eight Rings. The boat's previous

66
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 6>name was eight Rings and owed to his eight Super

67
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 6>Bowl wins as the Pats head coach and the Giants

68
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:22.199
<v Speaker 6>defensive coordinator. So now it's called one plus eight Rings. Now.

69
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:25.080
<v Speaker 6>There's been no official comment yet from the couple, but

70
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:28.479
<v Speaker 6>of course the speculation on the internet is running wild.

71
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.800
<v Speaker 6>Jim mcka WBZ Boston's news radio.

72
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, here it comes. We've been talking about this for

73
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:37.039
<v Speaker 2>several days, and today is the day. This major nor'easter

74
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 2>that is better designed for November, quite frankly, is going

75
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>to hit us just as we head into the holiday weekend.

76
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:45.360
<v Speaker 2>And to put this into some sort of perspective, today's

77
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>daytime high is not really going to get maybe in

78
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:52.080
<v Speaker 2>many locations two fifty degrees now one year ago today,

79
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:56.879
<v Speaker 2>Sonny in eighty eight adi you like that, What a difference. Right,

80
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:00.759
<v Speaker 2>So today we've got everything but the kitchens being thrown

81
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.680
<v Speaker 2>at us. And if it's not raining where you are

82
00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>right now, it's about to and the rain will pick

83
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:07.759
<v Speaker 2>up an intensity right around noontime today, the heaviest of

84
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:11.000
<v Speaker 2>the downpours will be with us until around sunset tonight

85
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.240
<v Speaker 2>before we slowly begin to taper things off, and we

86
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.480
<v Speaker 2>do emphasize the slow portion of that. This is going

87
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:19.160
<v Speaker 2>to be one of those days that will soon we

88
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.120
<v Speaker 2>will not soon forget, as the rain will come down

89
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>anywhere between one and three inches of precipitation. Once it's

90
00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 2>out of the way, it is going to be a

91
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:30.720
<v Speaker 2>slow recovery. Tomorrow is much better in comparison, but still

92
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.199
<v Speaker 2>under cloudy skies. Highs around sixty might see some sunshine

93
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.720
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday and even more on Sunday and Monday when

94
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:38.800
<v Speaker 2>temperatures get back to where they should be this time

95
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:41.480
<v Speaker 2>of year, which is in the upper sixties to low seventies.

96
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Right now, it is forty eight and cloudy skies in

97
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:46.879
<v Speaker 2>Boston at six oh six on this Thursday morning. And

98
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 2>on top of all that, one of the busiest travel

99
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:51.920
<v Speaker 2>days of the season is now underway.

100
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Getting out before the norrister rolls in. And that's the

101
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.079
<v Speaker 1>game plan for many folks who showed up to Logan

102
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>early this morning.

103
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:58.879
<v Speaker 7>It's actually funny. I was supposed to go in the

104
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 7>night and I saw the store and I was like

105
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 7>the earliest slide out. I gotta get out of here.

106
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's Hallie who's flying to see family in Minneapolis,

107
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>where the weather won't be necessarily the best, but much

108
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:09.839
<v Speaker 1>better than Boston's.

109
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:11.360
<v Speaker 7>Looking like sixties and sunny because they had the rain

110
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.680
<v Speaker 7>for the past three days. So I'm very excited to

111
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:15.839
<v Speaker 7>not be here for whatever is coming.

112
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.199
<v Speaker 1>Henry is also planning to get some swings in as

113
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 1>well as some swimming, golf, beach, you know, good Memorial

114
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.199
<v Speaker 1>Day weekend activities. Yeah, we're all very happy for him

115
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:29.319
<v Speaker 1>and Logan James Rojas w v Z Boston, some news radio,

116
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:29.759
<v Speaker 1>and for.

117
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:33.079
<v Speaker 2>The rest of us, pizza is being put to the test, asking.

118
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.560
<v Speaker 4>You massa Ammer's student who makes the best pizza on campus?

119
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:36.839
<v Speaker 4>And Pizza Joe. Yeh, Pizza Joe.

120
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>He's a Joe Joe.

121
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:39.839
<v Speaker 2>I love you Pizza Joe.

122
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:42.560
<v Speaker 4>So hey, Joe, thank you. I knew I had to

123
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.160
<v Speaker 4>meet the legend himself. Hold on, Joe Dennerona is his

124
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.160
<v Speaker 4>real name, but everyone calls him hamp Pizza Joe because

125
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:51.399
<v Speaker 4>that's his Instagram handle. It's come here, just want to

126
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:52.079
<v Speaker 4>take a picture.

127
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:53.040
<v Speaker 3>Didn't even need the.

128
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:56.120
<v Speaker 4>Pizza now, whatever you're picturing a Pizza Guy my post

129
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 4>on Instagram. Imagine it's directed by Michael Bay. I'm talking explosions, stunts, superheroes,

130
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:04.720
<v Speaker 4>and some pizza.

131
00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:07.879
<v Speaker 1>I made my special a Luttela pizza.

132
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:12.040
<v Speaker 4>So his popularity on campus is partially about creativity and comedy,

133
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:13.959
<v Speaker 4>but most importantly comfort.

134
00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:18.480
<v Speaker 7>Anyone can make a pizza, but I make people happy

135
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:19.720
<v Speaker 7>with a pizza.

136
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:20.560
<v Speaker 3>It's different.

140
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.800
<v Speaker 2>lonely people, and a new survey shows men, we're talking

141
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:35.800
<v Speaker 2>to you. A new Gallup poll finds one quarter of

142
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.199
<v Speaker 2>all men in the United States between the ages of

143
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:42.079
<v Speaker 2>fifteen and thirty four say they're lonely. That's way more

144
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.480
<v Speaker 2>than the eighteen percent of women who say the same thing.

145
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.560
<v Speaker 2>The survey takes the pulse of dozens of high income

146
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>countries and also reveals that American men are more lonely

147
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:56.279
<v Speaker 2>than their counterparts elsewhere on the planet. This contradicts prior studies,

148
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:58.879
<v Speaker 2>which have revealed time and time again that loneliness is

149
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:03.120
<v Speaker 2>about the same among men and women. You are now
