Sunny Mornings in Boston. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:13.339
and it's Tuesday, April 7th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.339 --> 00:00:19.780
to know, 78 years ago, today, in 1948, the World

00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:21.980
Health Organization was founded to coordinate

00:00:21.980 --> 00:00:24.960
international public health efforts and to promote

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:27.559
health standards and disease prevention worldwide.

00:00:28.649 --> 00:00:31.629
Its creation marked a major milestone in global

00:00:31.629 --> 00:00:34.869
cooperation, establishing a dedicated agency

00:00:34.869 --> 00:00:38.170
to set norms, support countries, and improve

00:00:38.170 --> 00:00:42.350
well -being for populations everywhere. So now

00:00:42.350 --> 00:00:46.350
you know. And now, it's time for the weather

at 7 .16 and it will rise again tomorrow at 6

00:01:02.770 --> 00:01:06.329
.11. It looks like we're in for some snow showers

00:01:06.329 --> 00:01:09.650
early today, tapering off by mid -morning, then

00:01:09.650 --> 00:01:12.650
a chance of rain and snow, with partly sunny

00:01:12.650 --> 00:01:15.950

00:01:15.950 --> 00:01:19.709
west breeze around 6 miles per hour. If you're

00:01:19.709 --> 00:01:25.000
inland, it will hit a high of 48. Tonight. Expect

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.920
a slight chance of rain showers before 8 p .m.,

becoming partly cloudy, with a low around 29

00:01:30.939 --> 00:01:35.500
and light winds around 6 miles per hour. The

00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:39.480
near -shore buoy at Cape Cod Bay reads 41 degrees

00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:43.540
for the water temperature. Looking ahead in the

00:02:20.620 --> 00:02:23.960

to tell them. Sunny mornings send you. In local

00:02:59.099 --> 00:03:02.800
news, Brockton Hospital canceled elective procedures

00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:05.979
due to a network disruption on Monday, April

00:03:05.979 --> 00:03:09.939
6. The outage also affected the facility's electronic

00:03:09.939 --> 00:03:13.560
medical records system, forcing nurses and doctors

00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:17.050
to switch to pen and paper documentation. according

00:03:17.050 --> 00:03:20.710
to Brooke Hines from Signature Healthcare. Internet

00:03:20.710 --> 00:03:23.810
service has been unavailable, causing a Brockton

00:03:23.810 --> 00:03:26.569
resident to receive a service unavailable message

00:03:26.569 --> 00:03:29.169
while trying to access the hospital's patient

00:03:29.169 --> 00:03:32.669
portal. Hines stated she will provide updates

00:03:32.669 --> 00:03:36.250
on plans for Tuesday, April 7th, as this story

00:03:36.250 --> 00:03:39.870
continues to develop. Brockton Hospital is one

00:03:39.870 --> 00:03:42.550
of two trauma centers in the city, alongside

00:03:42.550 --> 00:03:50.909
Boston Medical Center South. Now on to sports.

00:03:52.389 --> 00:03:56.129
Michigan fights off UConn to win its first national

00:03:56.129 --> 00:04:02.469
championship since 1989. On April 6, 2026, in

00:04:02.469 --> 00:04:05.389
Indianapolis, Indiana, the Wolverines emerged

00:04:05.389 --> 00:04:08.810
as national champions. The number one -ranked

00:04:08.810 --> 00:04:11.990
Michigan defeated the number two -ranked UConn

00:04:11.990 --> 00:04:17.240
69 -63, ending the Huskies' dynasty. This victory

00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.860
marks Michigan's second national championship,

00:04:20.300 --> 00:04:23.399
breaking the Big Ten's 26 -year title drought.

00:04:23.980 --> 00:04:27.620
The Wolverines, led by second -year coach Dusty

00:04:27.620 --> 00:04:31.160
May, achieved a record -breaking 37 wins and

00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:34.839
three losses this season. Despite shooting poorly

00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:37.540
from three -point range, their size and depth

00:04:37.540 --> 00:04:41.660
proved too much for UConn to handle. In local

00:04:41.660 --> 00:04:45.360
sports. The Red Sox fell to the Brewers 8 -6

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.279
on Monday night, marking their eighth loss in

00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:51.860
nine games. Garrett Mitchell delivered a tie

00:04:51.860 --> 00:04:54.139
-breaking single in the eighth inning, while

00:04:54.139 --> 00:04:56.899
Christian Yellich contributed three hits and

00:04:56.899 --> 00:05:00.839
an RBI for Milwaukee. Wilson Contreras had a

00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.639
solo of Homer and reached base five times for

00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:07.480
the Sox. He had a tense exchange with Milwaukee's

00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:09.879
Brandon Woodruff after being hit by a pitch.

00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:12.980
leading to a hard slide into second base that

00:05:12.980 --> 00:05:16.600
tore Hamilton's pants. Tomorrow, they will face

00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.439
Jacob Mizurowski while Garrett Crochet takes

00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:25.720
the mound for Boston. In top news, kids are discovering

00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:29.860
the joys and pains of the landline. Families

00:05:29.860 --> 00:05:32.480
are combating screen time with a blast from the

00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:36.560
past, home phones. However, it has not been a

00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:40.160
smooth transition. Elsie Wright campaigned for

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:42.680
a phone and finally received one for Christmas,

00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:46.560
but it was a landline. American families are

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.399
embracing the low -tech life, installing home

00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.500
phones to reduce smartphone use, which has created

00:05:52.500 --> 00:05:56.779
some hiccups. Luna James -Martinez, 9 years old,

00:05:56.860 --> 00:05:59.860
hung up her new retro -looking handset, thinking

00:05:59.860 --> 00:06:03.279
it was glitching. Hermann explained what a dial

00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:06.339
tone was, while Luna struggled with basics like

00:06:06.339 --> 00:06:10.620
holding the receiver correctly. In business news,

00:06:10.819 --> 00:06:14.579
the money game is capturing Wall Street's attention

00:06:14.579 --> 00:06:18.839
as analysts focus on the Strait of Hormuz. With

00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:22.000
markets wobbling, James Van Geelen states, it's

00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:25.720
the most bearish outcome. The founder of Citrini

00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:29.459
Research, known for causing a $200 billion market

00:06:29.459 --> 00:06:32.779
meltdown, is concerned about how Donald Trump's

00:06:32.779 --> 00:06:35.819
conflict with Iran will impact financial markets.

00:06:36.779 --> 00:06:39.220
After watching the president's April Fool's Day

00:06:39.220 --> 00:06:42.519
address, he felt glum, especially as his analyst

00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.879
in the war zone reported troubling news. Stocks

00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:49.439
had been rising on hopes of a ceasefire, but

00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:52.019
Trump's statement suggested a prolonged conflict.

00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:57.160
What did we rally on then? Asks Van Geelen. In

00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:01.759
crypto movement, Bitcoin is unchanged at $69

00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:07.819
,000. Ethereum is down 1%. to just over 2 ,000.

00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:15.579
And XRP is down 1 % to $1 .32. Moving on to a

00:07:15.579 --> 00:07:19.639
more local vibe. In our community spotlight on

00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:22.519
health and wellness, we are working with a national

to tell them, sunny morning sent you by. And

00:07:59.470 --> 00:08:05.160
now, back to the show. Let's talk science. Artemis

00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:07.879
II's crew has now flown farther than any humans.

00:08:08.300 --> 00:08:14.379
The distance covered, more than 248 ,655 miles,

00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:18.459
surpassed the record set by Apollo 13 in 1970.

00:08:19.740 --> 00:08:22.899
The crew of NASA's Artemis II mission has officially

00:08:22.899 --> 00:08:25.939
ventured farther into space than any humans before,

00:08:26.180 --> 00:08:31.779
zooming more than 248 ,655 miles from Earth.

00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:34.659
in its historic voyage around the far side of

00:08:34.659 --> 00:08:38.200
the Moon. Today, for all humanity, you're pushing

00:08:38.200 --> 00:08:41.419
beyond that frontier, Kelsey Young, a science

00:08:41.419 --> 00:08:45.679
officer for Artemis II, told the crew. The spacecraft

00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.220
will set yet another record for human travelers,

00:08:48.779 --> 00:08:57.240
252 ,760 miles from Earth. And in entertainment

00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:01.799
news, Savannah Guthrie returns to work. Ready

00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.399
or not, let's do the news. Guthrie has been off

00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.700
air since her mother Nancy was abducted 65 days

00:09:08.700 --> 00:09:12.460
ago. Savannah Guthrie returned to the Today Show

00:09:12.460 --> 00:09:17.179
on Monday for real and for good. The NBC News

00:09:17.179 --> 00:09:19.860
Morning Show's longtime co -anchor was in her

00:09:19.860 --> 00:09:22.720
familiar chair next to Craig Melvin when a clock

00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:26.720
struck 7 a .m. Eastern Time. Wearing a cheery

00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:29.899
yellow dress, surrounded by roses, Guthrie opened

00:09:29.899 --> 00:09:32.879
with the latest news on Iran, including a potential

00:09:32.879 --> 00:09:37.480
45 -day ceasefire. It is good to be home, Guthrie

00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:41.919
said. Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the

00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.720
quote of the day. And today, our quote comes

00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:48.340
from the American author and motivational speaker,

00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:53.179
Wayne Dyer. And he said, When you change the

00:09:53.179 --> 00:09:55.279
way you look at things, the things you look at

00:09:55.279 --> 00:09:57.789
change. highlighting the power of perspective

00:09:57.789 --> 00:10:02.450
in shaping our experiences and outcomes. And

00:10:02.450 --> 00:10:05.610
that's a wrap for this morning. You can check
