<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Eighty nine degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. If you can't stand

4
00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:16.960
<v Speaker 2>the heat, get out of New England.

5
00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 3>As far as our daytime high temperatures, my forecast still

6
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:21.960
<v Speaker 3>places us around ninety three degrees for the city, metro

7
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:24.480
<v Speaker 3>west points north around ninety one to ninety two degrees.

8
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.519
<v Speaker 3>It is not less necessarily going to feel like the

9
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:28.839
<v Speaker 3>upper nineties, at least for today, but that jet stream

10
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:31.640
<v Speaker 3>will remain along the northern border, and the heat is

11
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:33.359
<v Speaker 3>going to be building across the eastern half.

12
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Of the country. CBS News Boston's Jason Michael a potential

13
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:38.679
<v Speaker 2>of a heat wave three plus days of ninety plus

14
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:41.840
<v Speaker 2>degree heat. Boston Mayor Michelle Woo's issued a heat emergency

15
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:44.840
<v Speaker 2>for the city through Wednesday. There is an air quality

16
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:49.359
<v Speaker 2>alert up until eleven o'clock this evening, and we are soaring,

17
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.280
<v Speaker 2>especially off to the north. Manchester, New Hampshire's at ninety

18
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.039
<v Speaker 2>five degrees right now. Even up in Bangor, Maine it

19
00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:57.920
<v Speaker 2>is ninety four, which is a little bit hotter than

20
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 2>around these parts. We're at ninety two degrees in Fitchburg,

21
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:06.040
<v Speaker 2>eighty six in Worcester, eighty nine in Boston. We were

22
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>above ninety briefly today in Boston before temperature settled back

23
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>a couple degrees. We'll check things out with trafficking weather

24
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.840
<v Speaker 2>together in just a couple of minutes. Taking aim at Washington,

25
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:18.599
<v Speaker 2>DC's crime problems, President Trump today highlighting certain street crimes,

26
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:21.680
<v Speaker 2>placing the DC Police under the control of Attorney General

27
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:25.040
<v Speaker 2>Pambondi and for starters, sending in eight hundred National Guard

28
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:25.920
<v Speaker 2>forces under.

29
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:28.319
<v Speaker 4>The authorities vested in me. As the President of the

30
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:31.799
<v Speaker 4>United States, I'm officially invoking section seven forty of the

31
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.439
<v Speaker 4>District of Columbia Home Rule Act, you know what that is,

32
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 4>and placing the DC Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control.

33
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Over the weekend, federal agents from various departments, including the FBI,

34
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:49.280
<v Speaker 2>began to patrol the streets of Washington, d C, despite

35
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.040
<v Speaker 2>some high profile incidents. For their part, district officials argue

36
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:55.239
<v Speaker 2>that crime is down from a high spike in twenty

37
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:58.359
<v Speaker 2>twenty three and the president's move is unnecessary. D c's

38
00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Mayor Muriel Bowser called the President and his actions unsettling

39
00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:04.680
<v Speaker 2>and unprecedented, but not surprising. A federal judge of New

40
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.599
<v Speaker 2>York rules transcripts of secret grand jury testimony in the

41
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:11.759
<v Speaker 2>sex trafficking case against Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend won't be released.

42
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:14.520
<v Speaker 2>The judge is should have written ruling saying releasing the

43
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>transcripts would risk unraveling the foundations of secrecy upon which

44
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:20.840
<v Speaker 2>the grand jury is premised. Killing Maxwell is serving a

45
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:24.240
<v Speaker 2>twenty year prison term after her conviction on sex trafficking

46
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:29.039
<v Speaker 2>charges for helping to procure girls for Epstein. It's fiery

47
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.120
<v Speaker 2>hot in California, however, the fiery parts getting a little

48
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:32.759
<v Speaker 2>bit better.

49
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Even though it remains hot and extremely dry here, with

50
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.879
<v Speaker 1>temperatures around and above one hundred degrees. In many areas,

51
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:43.039
<v Speaker 1>firefighters have made substantial progress on wildfires that worth running

52
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:46.039
<v Speaker 1>homes and lives. Last week, the Canyon Fire north of

53
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:49.639
<v Speaker 1>la is now at ninety one percent containment. The Gifford Fire,

54
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 1>burning in a remote area of Santa Barbara and San

55
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.879
<v Speaker 1>Luis Obispo counties, is huge at around one hundred twenty

56
00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:58.080
<v Speaker 1>thousand acres, but containment has risen to thirty three percent.

57
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:02.759
<v Speaker 1>Fire activity on the wildfires is way down at like STONEYBCINEWS,

58
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Los Angele.

59
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 2>Has promised to shut down on the MBTA's Blue Line

60
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.439
<v Speaker 2>now through Sunday. Riders on parts of that line are

61
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.719
<v Speaker 2>being told they'll have to get a ride on a

62
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 2>shuttle bus as the TEA works to replace tracks in

63
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.599
<v Speaker 2>upgrade stations, No trains from airport to Wonderland, shuttle buses

64
00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:23.080
<v Speaker 2>replacing train service, and the tees warning riders to add

65
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.080
<v Speaker 2>about twenty to thirty minutes to their usual commute. Not

66
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:28.039
<v Speaker 2>a great day to be waiting in traffic as it

67
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>is warming up quite a bit outside. We're almost back

68
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:34.000
<v Speaker 2>to ninety in Boston where we got earlier, or at

69
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.199
<v Speaker 2>eighty nine right now, but many spots are into the

70
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 2>low nineties. And as you head up into parts of

71
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire Manchester, for example, ninety five degrees right now.

72
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:47.599
<v Speaker 2>We're at ninety four in Conquered New Hampshire, ninety four

73
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 2>in Bangor, Maine. So there's plenty of warmthed in place,

74
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:52.520
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit a little bit cooler in these

75
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.879
<v Speaker 2>parts at least today, but the humidity is going to

76
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.000
<v Speaker 2>be on the increase and the temperatures a little bit

77
00:03:57.039 --> 00:03:58.639
<v Speaker 2>as well. So as we head through the evening with

78
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 2>an air quality alert until eleven clock to I will

79
00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 2>have temperatures in the low seventies in Boston, mainly clear skies,

80
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:07.280
<v Speaker 2>mid sixties in the outer suburbs. Here comes tomorrow in

81
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:11.639
<v Speaker 2>more humidity, so it'll feel warmer. More oppressive load of

82
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.280
<v Speaker 2>mid nineties for the high temperatures tomorrow with the mid

83
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.839
<v Speaker 2>eighties over the Capean Islands mainly clear, humid Tomorrow night

84

85
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 2>a little more humid in fact, almost oppressive clouds and

86
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Speaker 2>some sunshine. Temperatures load to mid nineties only in the

87
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.879
<v Speaker 2>mid maybe upper eighties on Thursday Essay only because it's cooler,

88
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:33.639
<v Speaker 2>but it's still going to be humid, so it's still

89
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 2>going to feel sticky, and there's going to be some

90
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:38.360
<v Speaker 2>thunderstorms we may have to dodge as the day goes on.

91
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>Right now, eighty nine degrees see in Boston. Look up

93
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:48.199
<v Speaker 2>The besist Carl Stevens tells us it's part of an

94

<v Speaker 2>ongoing beyond Walls initiative.

95
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:52.800
<v Speaker 5>These half dozen new murals here in downtown Lyn have

96
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:54.879

103
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.639
<v Speaker 5>beyond the mindset of isolation and interacting with others.

104
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:17.560
<v Speaker 6>It's important because it helps people communicate and talk who

105
00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 6>Every time people come here, they tried to reflect on

106
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 6>what's on the wall, and then hopefully they keep the

107
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.839
<v Speaker 6>reflection on when they get into their homes, maybe talking

108

126
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:35.160
<v Speaker 8>in more than three years, according to federal data analyzed

127
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:37.959
<v Speaker 8>by the University of Kansas. The drop has wiped out

128
