NEEDHAM, MA — Chilly temperatures are here to stay with the possibility of snow showers in our first week of 2021.

Also here to stay is the COVID-19 vaccine, which is being distributed across the commonwealth. First responders will have the chance to get vaccinated in their towns, thanks to the state's rollout of 114 vaccine sites.

The sites include Framingham's Memorial Building, the Weston Fire Department, Needham's Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates-Atrius Health and the Worcester Senior Center, just to name a few.
