00:00:01.360 --> 00:00:11.439
<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news. Hey Ma,

2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the cold weather is here on this Friday morning. We

3
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:17.920
<v Speaker 1>are back to pretty much where we should be this

4
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:20.239
<v Speaker 1>time of year. It's thirty degrees. But here's the thing.

5
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Wind gusts are blowing at fifty miles per hour. Not good.

6
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 1>The News at six is brought to us by your

7
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:30.039
<v Speaker 1>New England Toyota Dealer, your Hybrid all wheel drive headquarters.

8
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for joining us this morning. I'm Jeff Brown. If

9
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:35.079
<v Speaker 1>you've got hatches, might be time to bat them down.

10
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:37.759
<v Speaker 1>It'll be very windy and chilly today with more Southerlan

11
00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:40.520
<v Speaker 1>clouds and winds gusting to forty to fifty miles per hour.

12
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>And this WBZ acky Weather meteorologist Joe Lundberg mid forties today,

13
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 1>but with a wind, chill and power outa Jazara thing today.

14
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>According to MIMA, there are about five thousand people waking

15
00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:55.119
<v Speaker 1>up in the dark this morning. Celtics continue to rolls

16
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.840
<v Speaker 1>McCall on NBC Sports Boston. This time the Celtics take

17
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:06.680
<v Speaker 1>it out on the Sixers set. The Garden Bruins lose

18
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:10.560
<v Speaker 1>in Carolina. Red Sox hosts the Marlins at gent Blue Park.

19
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>This afternoon, it'll be sunny in eighty in Fort Myers,

20
00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 1>passengers will need to look up the MBTA's red line.

21
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:22.040
<v Speaker 1>After another ceiling panel comes crashing down, barely missing people

22
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>on a subway platform at the Harvard station. A tumbling

23
00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:28.519
<v Speaker 1>tile is caught on surveillance video and is eerily reminiscent

24
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.239
<v Speaker 1>of a similar incident at the same station and roughly

25
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>the same spot at the Harvard stop two years ago.

26
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>The te says visual inspections of these tiles happen routinely,

27
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>but work to remove similar tiles from the ceiling kept

28
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 1>cruise pretty busy overnight. It's a fork in the road

29
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:48.159
<v Speaker 1>for America's Miracle drugs. A federal judge puts the final

30
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>nail on the coffin and ends a prior approval for

31
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>compounding pharmacies to make and sell generic versions of popular

32
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:58.560
<v Speaker 1>weight loss drugs. In earlier approval from the FDA meant

33
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>to alleviate a shortage of Elie Lily's Monjiro and zep

34
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 1>Bound is no longer needed, as the company says it's

35
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:07.319
<v Speaker 1>back on its feet. Compounding versions of the treatments are

36
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.639
<v Speaker 1>substantially cheaper than the brand names. College Kids it's spring

37
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.960
<v Speaker 1>break season and Logan is becoming a zoo. It's not

38
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:18.719
<v Speaker 1>just any busy Friday at Logan. For many, it's the

39
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:20.560
<v Speaker 1>unofficial start of spring break.

40
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.039
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, oh, it's pretty smooth, that's what Now.

41
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.039
<v Speaker 3>When I saw the traffic, I was like, oh, no, no, no,

42
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:28.680
<v Speaker 3>the spring Breakers they're here.

43
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:30.479
<v Speaker 1>Alexandra and her friends are traveling.

44
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna have a wonderful flight, and we're gonna.

45
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>Pot after Pott of Logan James Rojas WBZ Boston's news radio.

46
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>By the way, there are some delays at Logan Airport

47
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:43.400
<v Speaker 1>already this morning. Flight Aware is reporting more than a

48
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 1>dozen delays, a couple of cancelations on the board as well. Well,

49
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:49.199
<v Speaker 1>here it comes this weekend. It's time to pay back

50
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 1>the hour we gained last fall. Not something we've been

51
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.680
<v Speaker 1>looking forward to. I imagine WBC Strew moholland is here

52
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.520
<v Speaker 1>with details. Good morning, Andrew, Good.

53
00:02:58.400 --> 00:02:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Morning, Jeffrey.

54
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:01.199
<v Speaker 1>I never go until I get the good morning.

55
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:04.560
<v Speaker 4>Time is messing with our minds again this weekend, Daylight

56
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.639
<v Speaker 4>Saving Time returns annual tradition where we give back the

57
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.560
<v Speaker 4>hour we gained last fall. As you mentioned, did you know,

58
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Jeff Losing an hour asleep has been known to be

59
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:16.800
<v Speaker 4>hazardous to our health, links increased to anxiety depression. It's

60
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 4>also been ties to arise in heart attacks and strokes,

61
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:21.759
<v Speaker 4>so serious stuff. At the very least we won't be

62
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 4>able to snap out of it. Early next week, more

63
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 4>traffic crashes, missing work, later rivals at work in school,

64
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.120
<v Speaker 4>all attributed to this. The sun will rise after seven

65
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:33.039
<v Speaker 4>am on Sunday. But Jeff, the silver lining here, okay,

66
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:35.479
<v Speaker 4>the sunset six forty five pm.

67
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:37.879
<v Speaker 1>I was wondering where the silver line is? My friend,

68
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 1>is the silver lining? Thank you for that? Pretty much

69
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.479
<v Speaker 1>the story that we've been living with this winter. High

70
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:44.639
<v Speaker 1>wind's going to be a problem again today. In fact,

71
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>a wind advisory has been posted for much of the

72
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.360
<v Speaker 1>area through seven o'clock tonight, and a high wind warning

73
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 1>just outside four ninety five. And it's apparent too, because

74
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.159
<v Speaker 1>the gusts are at fifty miles per hour at this

75
00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:59.319
<v Speaker 1>point in time. It's thirty degrees as we walk out

76
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:02.599
<v Speaker 1>the door this morning, and about twenty five degrees colder

77
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.039
<v Speaker 1>than this time yesterday, So you get the idea of

78
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 1>the kind of day it's going to be. The only

79
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 1>thing different about it really is that we'll see plenty

80
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.039
<v Speaker 1>of sunshine, although it's going to be very windy throughout

81
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.240
<v Speaker 1>the day and cold too, temperatures in the mid forties,

82
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.040
<v Speaker 1>but there is a wind chill involved as well. Pretty

83
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>much the same story, although not as stiff a wind

84
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:24.560
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow coming at us, but we will see times of

85
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.040
<v Speaker 1>sun and clouds, high temperatures in the middle forties. The

86
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:29.600
<v Speaker 1>more comfortable of the weekend days is coming up on Sunday.

87
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Highs in the forties once again, and as we head

88
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 1>into a new work week next week, it looks like

89
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.319
<v Speaker 1>we'll be flirting with temperatures in the mid fifties for

90
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:38.600
<v Speaker 1>a good portion of the week. Anyway, right now in

91
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Boston thirty degrees, very windy sunrise in the city six

92
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 1>oh six this Friday morning. Upon further review, President Trump

93
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.399
<v Speaker 1>flip flops on tariffs again, puts another one month pause

94
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.040
<v Speaker 1>on levies on imports from Canada and Mexico. The twenty

95
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:55.759
<v Speaker 1>five percent tariffs are now on hold. We get more

96
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.160
<v Speaker 1>from CBS's Erica Brown.

97
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:00.199
<v Speaker 3>Canada responded to the tariff pause, saying it will not

98
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.439
<v Speaker 3>go ahead with a second wave of Retalia Tory tariffs

99
00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 3>on one hundred and twenty five billion dollars worth of

100
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:10.199
<v Speaker 3>US products until April second. Doug Ford, the Premiere of

101
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 3>the Province of Ontario, expressed doubts about Trump's decision to

102
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:14.920
<v Speaker 3>reverse course for now.

103
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:18.920
<v Speaker 2>He said that before, and he switched his mind a

104
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:20.399
<v Speaker 2>few days later or a week later.

105
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 1>So once I touch the stove and I get burned.

106
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:25.079
<v Speaker 2>Once I don't touch that stove again.

107
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:28.319
<v Speaker 1>The tariffs ease pressure on most goods in the US

108
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Mexico Canada Agreement, which President Trump negotiated during his first

109
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>term in office. Peace talks are set to begin between

110
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:39.319
<v Speaker 1>the United States and Ukraine next week. Both President Trump

111
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:42.720
<v Speaker 1>and Vladimir Zelenski confirmed the negotiations will be held in

112
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Saudi Arabia. The announcement comes about a week after an

113
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:49.439
<v Speaker 1>Oval office blowout that ended with Zelenski's abrupt departure from

114
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the White House. A social media expression of regret from

115
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:54.759
<v Speaker 1>the leader of Ukraine for the way things went down

116
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:58.360
<v Speaker 1>started this ball rolling. Meantime, the European Union has been

117
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.959
<v Speaker 1>meeting in support of Ukraine, but still has no plan

118
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:04.040
<v Speaker 1>for military aids to that country, and today marks the

119
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.759
<v Speaker 1>sixtieth anniversary of what many considered to be one of

120
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:09.279
<v Speaker 1>the most shameful days in American history.

121
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:12.000
<v Speaker 5>In nineteen sixty five, a young black man named Jimmy

122
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:14.839
<v Speaker 5>Lee Jackson was killed by a trooper as black people

123
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:17.399
<v Speaker 5>trying to exercise their right to vote were being turned

124
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:22.360
<v Speaker 5>away daily. Now gold Is Mundum demonstrators led by John Lewis,

125
00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:25.800
<v Speaker 5>chair of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, headed for the

126
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 5>Edmund Pettis Bridge and Selma and were confronted by.

127
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:37.600
<v Speaker 2>Troopers your heart, but they did not and were set

128
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:41.319
<v Speaker 2>upon by Alabama state troopers and others who beat them bloody.

129
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:44.160
<v Speaker 2>Two weeks later, a crowd of thousands led by doctor

130
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:47.959
<v Speaker 2>Martin Luther King Junior, marched across that bridge. Allison Key,
