Back Below Average

Happy Thanksgiving! And what a beautiful Thanksgiving it was! Temperatures made it to the 50s for a lot of us today with abundant sunshine and just an on and off breeze. There’s not much more you could ask for during a holiday in late November.In fact go back just five years ago to Thanksgiving 2018 and you’ll be reminded what else Thanksgiving can be like in these parts. Boston had a high temperature of 24°. But what made it worse was nobody actually felt that high temperature because it was at midnight. Temperatures fell for much of the day so being outside we had temperatures in the teens.Tomorrow will be a bit cooler and a bit breezier but all things considered, it’s still a nice day with at least a partly cloudy sky — likely even mostly sunny in the morning. The breeze will come and go. Temperatures will make it to the upper 40s tomorrow and when the breeze kicks in will feel like it’s near 40°.The true Canadian air arrives for Saturday. A large ar...

Guardrails needed for police use of facial recognition software in Massachusetts, advocates say

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:02 GMT

Police would need a warrant to use facial recognition software while investigating serious crimes and state police would be tasked with centralizing all law enforcement searches under legislation supporters argue reduces bias and puts guardrails on the use of the technology.A bill filed by Reps.
