It may not be surprising to see someone wearing red but there's an extra meaning behind people wearing that color Friday. The first Friday of February every year is National Wear Red Day, a holiday that aims to raise awareness about women's heart health.

The National Weather Service issued a winter storm watch for all of Massachusetts on Thursday afternoon ahead of a system that could bring at least a half foot of snow to the region this weekend. Texas executed Steven Nelson for the 2011 murder of the Rev. Clint Dobson Wednesday night. It is the second execution of the year in the nation.

February is American Heart Month and Friday is National Wear Red Day. Not just to celebrate the Chiefs’ appearance in the Super Bowl, but to raise awareness for heart disease prevention. Simple lifestyle changes can reduce your chances of heart disease significantly.
