What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe Financial Times reports that the owner of Charles de Gaulle airport is facing scrutiny over links to services for an airline under international sanctions.

  2. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistServices, Chip, and I'd like to know who cleared the clouds.

  3. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistNew York is fifty-five and cloudy right now, and tomorrow it's cloudy with a high of seventy-two and a six percent chance of rain.

  4. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSix percent. That's practically a free buffet of dry pavement.

  5. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistChicago is fifty-nine and partly cloudy, with a high of seventy-seven tomorrow and a twenty-three percent chance of rain. Now that's what I call a flight risk.

  6. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistLos Angeles is sixty-three and cloudy with almost no wind, then partly cloudy, seventy-five, and zero percent rain, which means it's hiding something.

  7. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorComing up later, who says not interested and then maybe runs for president anyway?

  8. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistMy pet peeve is the driver who brakes for a shadow. Ten honks out of ten, and Chip, I'll need to see your paperwork.
