00:00:01.159 --> 00:00:06.400
<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ Boston's news radio redefining local news.

2
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:14.599
<v Speaker 2>Sunny in forty seven degrees in Boston at eleven o'clock.

3
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Good Sunday morning. Thanks for being with us. I'm Sherry Small.

4
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Here's what's happening. Are a more seasonable weather today, but

5
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:24.359
<v Speaker 2>fire concerns remain. A red flag warning is still an

6
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 2>effect until sixth this evening for the high fire risk.

7
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.399
<v Speaker 3>Good AUGUSTI wins, very low humidity and continue very dry conditions.

8
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 2>And that's thatch you weather meteorologist Joe Lundberg. The full

9
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:38.000
<v Speaker 2>forecast coming up in three teachers in Beverly among several

10
00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:42.719
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts communities hitting the picket lines. Here's WBZTV's Beth Germano

11
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.000
<v Speaker 2>with details. Well, do whatever it takes. We'll bargain around

12
00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 2>the clock.

13
00:00:46.119 --> 00:00:48.320
<v Speaker 3>But the fact of the matter is we have to

14
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:48.759
<v Speaker 3>fix them.

15
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.079
<v Speaker 1>And the fix for these teachers is smaller class sizes,

16
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:57.039
<v Speaker 1>paid parental leave, better pay, particularly for para professionals who

17
00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:59.439
<v Speaker 1>say they work several jobs to make ends meet.

18
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.320
<v Speaker 3>I work weekends, I miss sporting events for my children

19
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.120
<v Speaker 3>because I'm working on the weekends to supplement my income.

20
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:06.400
<v Speaker 2>How many jobs are you working?

21
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:09.239
<v Speaker 1>In addition to this, are two other jobs.

22
00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:11.000
<v Speaker 4>You can survive on this spay, and you can even

23
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:14.359
<v Speaker 4>live in Beverly, so it's just not easy at all.

24
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>But the city says it's offering educators more than twenty

25
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:20.680
<v Speaker 1>four million dollars in new money over the next three

26
00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 1>years and now have a court order in hand to

27
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:26.120
<v Speaker 1>force teachers back into the classroom next Tuesday.

28
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:29.040
<v Speaker 4>The school committee has been negotiating in good faith.

29
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.599
<v Speaker 3>Our most recent offers would raise salaries by at least

30
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 3>thirteen point four percent for teachers.

31
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:42.680
<v Speaker 2>And meanwhile, Beverly teachers rallying yesterday with Gloucester teachers who

32
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:48.159
<v Speaker 2>are voicing similar demands, and teachers in Marblehead also authorizing

33
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:50.719
<v Speaker 2>a strike after Veterans Day that would begin on Tuesday.

34
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>The Marblehead Education Associations it's ninety nine percent of its

35
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:58.040
<v Speaker 2>members voted to stay off the job after the holiday weekend.

36
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 2>A pay raise, say for work working conditions in a

37
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:06.680
<v Speaker 2>modern parental leave system among the demands. Officials insisting the

38
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.560
<v Speaker 2>district had bargained in good faith during a school committee

39
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:14.719
<v Speaker 2>meeting last night. State law prohibits public employees from striking.

40
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.319
<v Speaker 2>Stop and Chop says it's listening to its customers and

41
00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:22.199
<v Speaker 2>has ended charging for paperbags. The grocery chain issuing a

42
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:24.960
<v Speaker 2>statement saying a ten cent bag fee was dropped in

43
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 2>most Massachusetts stores last month. They still are in place

44
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 2>in stores located in cities and towns pushing for more

45
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.080
<v Speaker 2>sustainable shopping. A similar move was made last month in

46
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Rhode Island as well. And now the four DAWBC ach

47
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>you weather forecast. We do have a red flag warning

48
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.479
<v Speaker 2>that's in effect until six o'clock to night for higher

49
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.759
<v Speaker 2>risk fire risks. That is, that's due to the winds,

50
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.759
<v Speaker 2>low humidity, those very dry conditions that continue. As far

51
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:56.719
<v Speaker 2>as what we're going to see whether why sunshine, it'll

52
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 2>be a chili blustery, a hive just fifty two, so

53
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:03.400
<v Speaker 2>winds are going to die down this evening. We'll just

54
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:05.599
<v Speaker 2>see a clear but cold overnight with a low of

55
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:08.879
<v Speaker 2>thirty six in the city for those inland suburbs, much

56
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:13.159
<v Speaker 2>colder twenty five to about thirty degrees tomorrow, sunshine and

57
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:17.000
<v Speaker 2>then followed by some clouds, a high a little warmer

58
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:22.520
<v Speaker 2>but still seasonable fifty eight degrees tomorrow night, some showers,

59
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>fairly mild, a low of just fifty two, So that's

60
00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:30.120
<v Speaker 2>leading us into Monday, with a high of sixty eight degrees.

61
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Monday is Veterans Day, so if you have the day off,

62
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:34.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, a hole tight in the morning. It looks

63
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.120
<v Speaker 2>like there might be a couple of showers around, but

64
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.919
<v Speaker 2>then those clouds will break for some afternoon sunshine to

65
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:44.280
<v Speaker 2>enjoy your day off. If you have the holiday off Tuesday,

66
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:45.719
<v Speaker 2>as we head back to work, it's going to be

67
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:49.639
<v Speaker 2>much colder. We will see some sunshine, but despite that,

68
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:52.680
<v Speaker 2>we'll just see a high of forty seven degrees or

69
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:56.840
<v Speaker 2>excuse me, fifty two degrees. It's forty seven degrees right

70
00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 2>now in Boston. It's eleven oh five on this Saturday.

71
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:02.159
<v Speaker 1>All right.

72
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 2>We do have some breaking news. Official Sake Cutter has

73
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:09.080
<v Speaker 2>decided to suspend its key mediation efforts between Hamas and Israel,

74
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:13.080
<v Speaker 2>one official saying that Cutter is highly likely to return

75
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 2>to the efforts if both sides show serious political willingness

76
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.600
<v Speaker 2>to reach a deal on the war in Gaza. A

77
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:24.360
<v Speaker 2>diplomatic source briefed on the matter said that both Israel

78
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.600
<v Speaker 2>and Hamas, along with the United States, were informed after

79
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.399
<v Speaker 2>the decision was made. We'll continue to follow this and

<v Speaker 3>Neighbors like Eileen say they really are losing a friend.

94
00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:13.879
