device do most of the talking in terms of that this means for them. >> Anne-Marie: look at the fine motor skills on this. It's incredible. >> Dan: this is a person who couldn't do that before. You are seeing improvements in pinch strength and grip strength and the ability to do those motor skills. And in some cases, the amount of pressure they could put between two fingers went up 7 fold. This isn't a surgery. This is a step back from the kinds of invasive procedures that have been done in the past. Yet, it's having these huge impacts. >> Anne-Marie: is it possible it could soon be widely available. >> Right now, they are getting approval. They are optimistic that they should get approval this year in the U.S. there are talks about moving it to other countryies in the future. I think a lot of different groups are looking into this and getting inspired by it. If this is one way to use electricity, what are some ways that we could adjust this or get inspired by this to make new kinds of experiments and new ways of taking that treatment even further. >> I'm watching these videos you have sent us of people in the trials. It's incredible to watch what they can do. Researchers are saying how this device could be used in the future. Who else could benefit? >> What we are learning is basically a new way of intervening when the spinal chord has an injury. Right now they are looking at one specific kind of injury. Going forward, they could look at injuries that are lower down in the back. Also other kinds of nerve injuries as well. What is weird about that is it's not trying to unless the language of the spinal chord and go in and speak that language. It is putting electrodes on the surface of the skin and sending some electricity in there and say, hey, spinal chord, work it out. And the spinal chord adapts. It really speaks to the miracle of the human body and how wonderfully it can work. >> Anne-Marie: I love when you show us examples of how it is working in new ways. Thanks, dan. >> Dan: thank you. >> Kelsey: it is a very mild start to the day in toronto sitting at 19°. 21 in montréal. Good morning. Single digits over to atlantic canada including labrador this morning. For St. John's. 7 in thunder bay. Single digits taking us right through the prairies. And 11 in vancouver. What we are seeing this afternoon is a return to warmer conditions across much of alberta, parts of northeastern B.C. saskatchewan as well. Manitoba, you will stay in the teens for the next couple of days. But by mid-week, you enter into that warmer forecast as well. 24 this afternoon for toronto. 23 for ottawa and montréal. And while new brunswick will be in the 20s, we are seeing teen temperatures elsewhere in our maritimes and a cooler day ahead for St. John's with a few showers mixed in. Des elsewhere in the province, there is a wind warning. This isn't for today. This is as we move into tomorrow morning. There's a front moving over from ontario to québec that is bringing a lot of active weather. It will arrive overnight into the maritime provinces. Ahead of that, you will start to see the cloud build in. It will start first as the cirrus clouds. That is indicative of the layer of moisture being quite thick. It could often be a predictor of rain moving its way in over the next 24 hours or so. You will see that first. Then overnight heading into tomorrow morning, the thunderstorms will begin. They start to creep in sometime after 3 a.m. Local time. Moving in from west to east. Within these thunderstorms, they are going to be very noisy, but they will also have a lot of rainfall with them. This is high intensity rainfall. Gusty winds. New brunswick, you can count on commuting through that rain in the morning. Whether you are getting off to work or school. The gaspe peninsula as well. For nova scotia and pei, it's rolling thunderstorms. It won't be constant. It's one of those that if it starts raining and you can give it a second and you can wait a little while before you leave, it could be done before you head out the door. That will arrive in newfoundland by mid-afternoon on tuesday. In labrador, you will have the rain a little sooner just due to the fact that you are farther west. Once we hit wednesday morning, cold air will pull its way in. Pulling down the cold arctic air as they do. That will prompt a flipover to freezing rain or snowfall.

now that's where the low is now. You can see it is still quite west of the region through ontario and québec. It is prompting heavy rainfall for some communities this morning. Ottawa, you just ended your rainfall experience. We are starting to see it intensify for the southwest. This is going to hit the toronto area within the next few hours. We will talk about that coming up in the next half hour. For now, we will take a short break here on the show. We will be right back. It's like... Woody: Howdy, partners! and like...
