BOSTON — The mellow computerized voice interrupted the governor a few times each minute, alerting customers that it was their turn to take care of a transaction at the customer service window.
"Now serving C111 at counter number 18," the voice said, just as Gov. Charlie Baker was making a point about his administration's war on wait times at the Registry of Motor Vehicles.
BOSTON – With warmer temperatures in the forecast for New Year's Eve, larger than usual crowds are expected for Boston's annual First Night celebration, but event organizers are hopeful that the temps won't rise so high as to melt away the traditional ice sculptures right before the viewers' eyes.
"Obviously the big question is the weather and the weather looks like it is going to be okay," said Toni Nunziante, a spokesman for Conventures, the event producer. "It's probably a little warmer than we would like in terms of ice sculptures but I think they will hold up."
