Speaker 2: of the Merrimack Valley. We do still have some rain
Speaker 2: and showers. They are in various intensities, but nothing superbly
Speaker 2: heavy that is reserved for Nantucket right now. In fact,
Speaker 2: the island is picking up some pretty heavy downpours, has
Speaker 2: been for a while, so I wouldn't be surprised if
Speaker 2: there were some flooding drainage issues on the island. Still
Speaker 2: a little rain coming down across the south coast, over
Speaker 2: to New Bedford, over to the Cape where we have
Speaker 2: a couple of downpours, Truro and Province Town. This is
Speaker 2: the heaviest of what's left of this storm that came through.
Speaker 2: That'll be pushing off. Everybody will get into clearing skies eventually,
Speaker 2: probably not tonight, probably first thing tomorrow morning or a
Speaker 2: little bit later. Than that, depending on where you are. Eventually, though,
Speaker 2: tomorrow we're going to break out plenty of sunshine. Temperatures
Speaker 2: are going to get into the mid fifties and the
Speaker 2: warmest spots about fifty at the coast, and then mainly
Speaker 2: clear tomorrow night, more sunshine. On Wednesday, temperatures in the
Speaker 2: load of mid fifties. And on Thursday we'll still be
Speaker 2: in the load of mid fifties, but we'll bring in
Speaker 2: a few clouds and we may bring in a few
Speaker 2: showers late in the day. Right now, it is fifty

Speaker 1: Pacing is the name of the game. The Saint Patrick's
Speaker 1: Day at the Black Rose. James Rojas WBZ Boston SNOOS Radio.
Speaker 2: Are you wearing green today? You're supposed to write, it's
Speaker 2: a tradition on Saint Patrick's Day? But why.
Speaker 8: There's a lot of lure regarding leprechauns, of mythical creatures
Speaker 8: said to go around pinching people not wearing green. There's
Speaker 8: also a belief that wearing green on Saint Patrick's Day
Speaker 8: is rooted in the color having become a symbol of
Speaker 8: Irish identity and resistance against British rule in the seventeen hundreds.
Speaker 8: But times have changed. If you're in New York City
Speaker 8: and decide pinching is in order, the luck of the
Speaker 8: Irish might not be with you, since pinching someone without
Speaker 8: their consent can lead to charges of forcible touching. That's
Speaker 8: a Class A misdemeanor or assault in the third degree,
Speaker 8: also a Class A misdemeanor, potentially resulting in up to
Speaker 8: one year in jail, probation or other penalties. I'm Michael Kassner.

Speaker 7: Lady Liberty stands for. The statue was a gift from
Speaker 7: France in eighteen eighty six. Gluxman, who has criticized President
Speaker 7: Trump over his policy in Ukraine, said the US has
Speaker 7: chosen to side with tyrants.
