1. Weather Report: Today will be mostly sunny with a high of 26 degrees. Tonight is looking partly cloudy with a low of 15 degrees. Some snow showers should be moving through here tomorrow.

3. The right measure. Did you know: Ell was a measure of length taken from the forearm. The word came from an Anglo-Saxon word, eln, or the Teutonic alina, which means the forearm from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow.

4. Off the hook. The New England Fishery Management Council has cut the fishing limit for cod on the Gulf of Maine by 77 percent, and Georges Bank cod by 61 percent.
