We have some big news: The first episode of The Common, our new daily podcast on all things happening in Greater Boston, just dropped! We’re starting off with a look at what the region’s growing Latino community thinks of Question 4, a referendum on the new law allowing undocumented residents to get a driver’s license.
Give it a listen today while you commute to work, do the dishes or go for a walk (it’s great weather for it). And make sure to subscribe!
After crushing the previous temperature record for Nov. 6 yesterday, Boston could do it again today. According to the National Weather Service, the city is expected to meet the Nov. 7 record of 77 degrees (which was first set in 1938). It’s already in the high 60s.
Today marks the beginning of the state’s annual “Deer Management Program” at Blue Hills Reservation. In other words, archers will be allowed to hunt deer in about a third of the park from now through the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
The Boston Bruins are parting ways with Mitchell Miller, reversing course after NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman declared Saturday that the 20-year-old defenseman is not currently eligible to play in the league. The reason: a 2016 conviction for bullying a Black classmate with developmental disabilities as a middle schooler.
P.S.— If you’re feeling a little more well rested this morning, thank the extra hour we got yesterday from the switch back from Daylight Saving Time. While the Senate passed a bill last winter to abandon the twice-a-year time change, that legislation has since stalled in the House. The Washington Post article has a good update here on the disagreements and concerns holding back its abolishment.
