The second half of the weekend saved it for us as skies finally cleared and we enjoyed a break from the rain. A fall front will be pushing through South Florida and is forecast to clear the area by this evening. Behind it, we will finally get a taste of fall as much nicer conditions return to the forecast. Something we have been waiting for for months after a record hot summer in South Florida! And it seems fitting as today the Rainy Season comes to a close!Once the above-mentioned front clears South Florida this evening, milder air will begin to move into our area. The air mass will be much drier as well so humidity levels will be lower than what we have seen in quite some time. Temperatures tonight will also be comfortable in the 60s for mainland areas of South Florida. Behind the front, skies will gradually clear late tonight and a Northwest breeze will pick up at ti...No swim advisory issued for Virginia Key, Key Biscayne and Fisher Island after power outage at wastewater treatment plant

Fields’ hand reached out to toss the ball and then hit the ground before his body did.Fields held his hand as he walked to the sideline and sat on the bench briefly before heading into the medical tent and then the locker room. The Bears ruled him out of the game before the third quarter was over.Bears coach Matt Eberflus said after the game that X-rays on Fields’ hand were negative and that he will have an MRI on Monday.

The Speaker of the Massachusetts House is confident a gun control measure under consideration by the lower chamber but opposed by the state’s law enforcement leaders will get the votes it needs to advance.According to House Speaker Ron Mariano, the gun control bill, also known as An Act modernizing firearm laws, which last week was the subject of a Ways and Means Committee hearing, will have the support required to head for the state Senate when he brings it to the floor this week.“We’ve talked to the members. We had two meetings with the members in the committee. We aired all of the questions that were posed around the first bill,” Mariano said.Offered by Stoneham Rep. Michael Day, the bill would broadly expand a list of banned firearms, adding most popular AR-15 styles to a list of “assault style weapons.” It would also require licensed concealed carry holders to secure permission before entering another’s home with a firearm and require additional training for license holders.

There’s not a lot of them, but they are great,” Triveri said. “We constantly talk about how life is full of setbacks. You can either dwell on them and stay pat or keep moving forward.“These guys have been great about doing whatever is needed. I can’t remember one time where a guy told us they can’t move from one position to another and that’s why we’ve had the success we’ve had so far this year.”Dominic Matteodo was the starter and someone Triveri felt was capable of a breakout season.
