38+ min ago (470+ words) December 11, 2025 / 4:41 PM EST / CBS Boston A storm arriving this weekend could bring plowable snow to parts of Massachusetts. This December has certainly had its share of cold weather. In fact, as of Thursday, this has been the coldest start to December in 17 years. Snow, on the other hand, has been a bit harder to come by." Many residents in the northwestern suburbs still have a crusty inch or two on the ground but those living along the coast and in southeastern Massachusetts are still looking at bare ground." The City of Boston is closing in on 300 days since the last measurable snowfall, the third longest stretch on record." A fast moving, relatively weak storm will be zipping through the Ohio Valley on Saturday, dropping 3-6" from parts of Iowa through Ohio." As it approaches the East Coast, it will transfer its…...

The randomly placed first weekend of the conference season is behind the Buckeyes. So, it is back to nonconference warmup matchups, at least on paper. It begins Thursday against the Northern Kentucky Norse of the Horizon League. What the Buckeyes learned from the 79-70 Big Ten opening victory will be clear early against the Norse, while one player continues down a road not traveled by many of Ohio State's best defenders in recent seasons. A criticism of Sunday's win came from head coach Kevin McGuff, directed at his players. Northwestern went up 16-10 after one quarter, and in those 10 minutes, the Buckeyes looked outmatched, tired, and disinterested. "That's a really dangerous way to start a Big Ten game," McGuff told Land-Grant Holy Land. "We were able to…...

4+ hour, 38+ min ago (316+ words) December 11, 2025 / 12:40 PM EST / CBS Boston The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission on Thursday unanimously approved regulations to allow for legal marijuana use in public settings. The decision clears the way for cannabis businesses to offer social consumption of their products on-site. That means people could use marijuana at "pot cafes," dispensaries, lounges or even places like yoga studios and theaters. Regulations also allow for "temporary consumption events," like festivals, where cannabis can be consumed legally. Among the safeguards put in place by the regulations: Social consumption sites must have a rideshare plan, they cannot serve alcohol with cannabis and they must also have food and water available. But when could these pot cafes actually open? "That's a difficult question to answer," commission chair Shannon O'Brien told WBZ-TV's Louisa Moller in an exclusive interview this week. "There have been estimates from anywhere…...

5+ hour, 55+ min ago (759+ words) When the Phoenix Suns traded superstar forward Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets during the 2025 offseason, fans and pundits alike believed the franchise was destined for another long rebuild." Many speculated that Devin Booker " a franchise cornerstone and Phoenix's all-time leading scorer " would be the next superstar to force a trade to a championship contender." But that wasn't the case. Just days after Durant's departure in July, Booker inked a 2-year, $145 million contract to stay in the Valley." Powered by Booker, Dillon Brooks and a ragtag collection of veterans and young players " the Suns have vastly exceeded expectations in the season's opening. They sit seventh in the Western Conference with an impressive 14-11 record." Brooks, the obnoxious wing discarded by both Memphis and Houston, is now the beating heart of the Suns. He is averaging a career-high 22 points per game " second-most…...
