Speaker 2 (00:10):
Thirty eight degrees under a sunny sky in Boston at
eleven o'clock, but it feels like twenty nine degrees with
a windshill. Hello, and thanks for being with us on

Speaker 3 (00:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
We are tracking a snowstorm headed our way. What should
arrive on Tuesday? CBS News Boston's Jacob Wykoff tells us
all about it, and.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
This is a typical early season coastal storm, not a
lot of cold associated early season, so it's going to
struggle to produce any sort of orange tree weather for
the Capean Islands and coastal locations. Meanwhile, inland, there is
going to be enough snow that this will likely start
and finish as some snow and accumulating snow.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
At that snow or a rain and snow mix arrives
depending on where you are, Tuesday afternoon and becoming steadier
into the evening commute. All right, we have to go
all the way back to February of twenty twenty two,
to when we had some notable snow around this time
of year, when eight and a half inches of snow
was recorded at Logan Airport, all right, just in time
(01:13):
for the home stretch of the Thanksgiving holiday week, and
a major winter storm continues to take shape in the
northern planes in Midwest, forty two million Americans now under
winter storm alerts through tomorrow afternoon, forecasters calling for several
inches of snow and wind gus up to forty miles
per hour. And also complicating things further, a software glitch

with the Airbus three point twenty flown by many US
air carriers overnight.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
The FA issued in order to update the software on
those specific planes. We're talking hundreds of planes here, and
the FA wants that updated by tomorrow, which would be
the biggest travel day of the entire Thanksgiving season that's
happening right now, to avoid grounding any planes.

During this time. And that CBS is Dave Melkoff that
we're hearing from there. Tomorrow Loan, the TSA expects to
screen three million passengers quickly taking a look over at
the board at Logan. According to flight Aware, so far today,
Logan has seen ninety three flights to laid thirteen flights
canceled all right. The DC shooting suspect is now facing

a first degree murder charge following the death of a
West Virginia National Guard member. His twenty twenty one entry
into the US likely part of a Biden administration program
that evacuated and resettled tens of thousands of Afghans during
the US withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Sources say Lackenwall was granted asylum in April twenty twenty
five under the Trump administration. When it comes to asylum,
when they're flown in, it's very hard to get him out,
no matter how you want to do it, it's very hard.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
To get him out.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
But we're going to be getting them all out now.
Speaker 1 (02:57):

a highly trained and trusted member of an elite Afghan

Wednesday's sun returns highs in the upper thirties. It's sunny
right now in thirty eight in Boston, but it feels
closer to twenty five. All right, back to news. If
you're looking for the perfect holiday gift, consider a digital camera.

Speaking to the trend of people kind of dialing back
their screen use or trying to reduce their screen use.
Camp Snap has a really great collection of screen free
digital cameras. These are cameras that you can plug in,
you can upload your photos, but they don't have a
screen on the back, so you're not sitting there staring
at your photos afterwards. Kids aren't clicking around and looking
at them. They're just in the moment using the camera.
