In foggy Boston harbor, two ferries smashed into each other; no reports yet of serious injuries. One of the ferries had 151 people on board; the other, just four.

The collision was near South Boston. Emergency medical services met the Massachusetts at Rowe's Wharf, Zubricki said.

It wasn't immediately clear how fast the boats were traveling. Both remained afloat after the collision, although there appeared to be a gash in the side of one. "The fog is thick and visibility is terrible," Zubricki said.

The Coast Guard was investigating.
