0:15 capt. anthony sirianni, north port police dept.
1:09 shauna and micah, north port hs students
the last thing students at north port high school expected to see monday morning were police officers and bomb sniffing dogs roaming the hallways.
"i heard about it first thing when i came to school around 7:10." micah, nphs freshman
police say an anonymous person posted a bomb threat on a facebook page.
"it kind of alluded to the fact that they wanted to cause violence to the school, mentioning explosives." capt. anthony sirianni, nppd
immediately, the police department called in all available resources to investigate the crime.
instead of evacuating the school, district officials placed the north port high in a limited lockdown situation as officers checked out the threat.
"it's judgement call based on decades of experience." gary leatherman/sarasota county schools
district officials don't evacuate a school after every bomb threat because they think it would lead to more threats.
they work with law enforcement to check the credibility of the threat and go from there.
"it';s a very difficult dilemma for school officials to deal with." gary leatherman/sarasota county schools
after searching the school, authorities did not discover any explosives, but their investigation is far from over.
"obviously it's a criminal offense, we're going to investigate it as such and continue the investigation until the suspect or suspects are identified." capt. anthony sirianni, nppd
students wonder why someone would make this threat, especially with the tragedy in newtown heavy on everyone's mind.
"i thought it was really messed up bc why would you do that , talk about it or anything. just make up another lie, especially after a national tragedy." micah and shauna, nphs students
school will go on as scheduled tomorrow.

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.
IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
RAIN AND COOLER WEATHER SOON
A weak cold front is pushing through the Southeast. It initiated some strong storms from Louisiana to Georgia yesterday, and its eyes are set on us. This is the first of two fronts that will bring us rain.
It'll start migrating across North Florida tonight, and it'll reach us Tuesday morning. Ahead of the front we'll see the clouds increase. Those same clouds will stick with us on Tuesday, and yes, they will bear rain at times. Not widespread activity, the showers will be widely scattered at best. Just be sure to leave home with some sort of rain gear Tuesday.
Better safe than sorry, right?
We'll experience clear skies and a slight breeze behind this front. Temperatures will be in the 50s Wednesday morning, and then back to the 60s Thursday morning. Our daytime highs won't be affected by the front. We'll continue to see them hover around 80 degrees.
Friday is when cold front number two sweeps across Southwest Florida. This front will be very robust, and it'll for sure spark widespread showers early in the day. Sunny skies will follow in the front's wake, but that's not the big story with the front.
The big story is the temperatures it'll bring with it.
The front has an arctic origin. No, it won't be the coldest air we've seen by the time it arrives, but it will definitely be chilly. Morning lows will plummet to the 40s and daytime highs will struggle to get past 70.
Get the jackets and sweaters ready!

TONIGHT WE'RE TAKING YOU INSIDE THEIR HOME AWAY FROM HOME - IN TALLAHASSEE.
NBC-2'S CHAD OLIVER WAS INVITED TO THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION TO SPEAK ONE-ON-ONE WITH THE FIRST LADY.
Return to index of stories...
"Florida's first family has lived on this property since 1907. This beautiful Greek-Revival home, the current Governor's mansion, was built in the 1950's. When Rick and Ann Scott moved in here, nearly 2 years ago, they made a change. They opened up the home to tours year around. Previously, under other administrations, it was only open during session a couple of months out of the year. Come on - let's go inside."
"I truly love my role as First Lady."
ON THIS DAY IT MEANT HOSTING A SCHOOL GROUP.
"Thank you for being here today!"
ANN SCOTT CAME TO THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION WITH ONE GOAL.
"get more history in here."
SHELVES ARE LINED WITH BOOKS ON FLORIDA HISTORY.
This is 16th century Spanish pottery."
500 YEAR OLD OLIVE OIL JARS.
They're from Christopher Columbus's family crypt."
IN THE STATE DINING ROOM - THE FIRST LADY POINTS OUT A ONE-HUNDRED YEAR OLD PUNCHBOWL.
What were some of the things you noticed about it?"
AND CHECK OUT THE CRYSTAL CHANDELIER.
"When I first got here I had to pinch myself and say I can't believe we're actually in the Governor's mansion.
WHEN SHE'S NOT IN THE MANSION - THE FIRST LADY OFTEN TRAVELS WITH THE GOVERNOR - ESPECIALLY IF THE TRIP TIES IN WITH HER TWO BIGGEST PRIORITIES: EDUCATION AND CHILDREN.
"and I love interacting with the kids - visiting schools, parks, libraries - talking about reading and literacy."
SHE'S ALSO FOCUSED ON HEALTHY LIFESTYLES FOR KIDS AND SUPPORTING MILITARY FAMILIES. AT A TIME OF THE YEAR WHEN FAMILIES GATHER, THE FIRST LADY SAYS SHE'LL BE THINKING ABOUT WHAT SHE'S *GAINED AND *LOST THIS YEAR.
"Even though I lost my parents and Rick lost his Mom, we have a new grandchild to celebrate and spend Christmas with. So that's a real positive for us."
THEIR GRANDSON, AUGUSTE, IS BIG REASON THE SCOTTS MAKE FREQUENT TRIPS BACK TO NAPLES.
Chad: "Is southwest Florida, Naples, a bit of an escape for you and your husband?"
Ann: "Yes, it is now. It's still home for us. Although the mansion feels like home to us now. It is a way to escape and get back to "normal.'"
AT LEAST FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS - THIS IS HER NEW 'NORMAL.'
"Merry Christmas ya'll have a wonderful Christmas."
