5 Things You Need to Know Today: Feb. 1

1. Yesterday's early-morning storm snarled traffic and took the wrapping off of a building.

2. The Boston Fire Department had a busy day in Jamaica Plain yesterday. In the morning, they were called to a kitchen fire on Perkins Street followed immediately by a call to Canary Square. Both incidents were minor.

3. Groundhog day is tomorrow. Will the groundhog see his shadow?

4. Also tomorrow: a coalition with ties to the Occupy movement plans to protest all along the T.

5. Have a great, hopefully windless, weekend.
