THOMAS ROBERTS, CNN STUDENT NEWS ANCHOR: Hi. We're glad to have you with us for the start of the week. With CNN Student News, I'm Thomas Roberts. It might be the time for warm weather, but parts of the country were really seeing white after an unexpected cold spell over the weekend. They might have said one thing while in Iran, but the released British sailors and marines are telling their side of the story now that they're back home. And it might seem like skateboarders have plenty of places to ride, but some people hope to give one town's skateboarders a permanent park.

First Up: A Chill in the Air

ROBERTS: First up today, a snap of cold weather has left parts of the country freezing. It might be Easter, but it sure feels like Christmas thanks to a cold spell that swooped into sections of the U.S. Washington, Atlanta and even parts of Texas saw snow in the past few days. The National Weather Service predicted record lows for parts of the Southeast and Midwest. John Lorinc reports on the weekend's wacky weather.

JOHN LORINC, CNN REPORTER: Spring? It was hardly shorts and tee-shirt weather in Washington, D.C. Saturday. A bundled-up crowd waited in line for tickets to the annual White House Easter Egg Roll.

WOMAN: I left all my winter clothes in Colorado too. I don't know where I thought I was going.

LORINC: Mother Nature wasn't playing ball in Cleveland either. After several delays, the Indians' home opener was finally called after four plus blustery innings. The game failed to impress one young fan.

YOUNG FAN: It was the worst home opener that ever was.

LORINC: Baseball wasn't the only sport feeling the big chill. Mother Nature wreaked havoc with fans and golfers at the Masters this weekend as well. Frigid and blustery conditions have contributed to some of the worst scores at the tournament in years. I'm John Lorinc reporting from Atlanta.

Worldwide Celebrations

ROBERTS: The weather might not be exactly what we expect for this time of year, but some Spring traditions always stay the same. The Jewish holiday of Passover began last week. Here you can see hundreds of people gathering for traditional Passover prayer in Jerusalem. And Easter was celebrated around the world yesterday. Once again, here's John Lorinc, with a look at Easter events from overseas and here in the U.S.

JOHN LORINC, CNN REPORTER: Separated from their families, but their spirits still intact, U.S. troops at camp Arifjan in Kuwait celebrated Easter with a church service. An army chaplain delivered a message of hope for soldiers who have lost friends in combat.

U.S. ARMY CHAPLAIN: This is only a temporary separation and that as believers we know we're going to have a reunion later on in heaven.

LORINC: Meanwhile the Bush family attended an Easter church service with troops stationed at Fort Hood, Texas, near the president's ranch in Crawford where he's been vacationing.

PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH: We wish all Americans a peaceful weekend and we wish our troops all the very best.

LORINC: In Indiana, one church group worshipped in a place much different than they expected. Easter mass for the congregation of Saint Anne's Catholic Church was held in a school auditorium, one day after their church was consumed by what authorities believe was a purposely set fire. Despite the tragedy, many connected to the church expressed optimism.

SISTER SHIRLEY GERTH, ST. ANNE CATHOLIC CHURCH: We are an Easter people and we will sing our Hallelujahs. A new life will come about as a result of this.

LORINC: The church had been a part of the community since 1924. I'm John Lorinc reporting from Atlanta.

Is this legit?

CARL AZUZ, CNN STUDENT NEWS: Is This Legit? The United Kingdom's flag is also known as the Union Jack. Totally true. The flag, which you see here, is a combination of designs that hail from England, Scotland and Ireland.

Their Side of the Story

ROBERTS: Last week we told you about the safe release of 15 British sailors and marines from Iran. During their captivity, several members of the group appeared on Iranian TV confessing to trespassing in Iranian waters and saying they were being treated well. But as John Roberts tells us, now that they're back home, the service members are telling a different version of their ordeal.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JOHN ROBERTS, CNN REPORTER: They faced more television cameras, this time to set the record straight.

LT. FELIX CARMAN: Let me make it absolutely clear, irrespective of what has been said in the past, when we were detained by the IRG, Iranian Revolutionary Guard, we were inside internationally recognized Iraqi territorial waters. And I can clearly state we were 1.7 nautical miles from Iranian waters.

ROBERTS: In front of a room full of press, the former hostages spoke freely -- and what they said sounded nothing like this:

NATHAN SUMMERS: I'd like to apologize for, uh, entering your waters without any permission.

CARMAN: We've been treated with a great deal of respect and dignity.

FAYE TURNEY: We've had a very pleasant stay under the conditions we were in.

ROBERTS: Pleasant isn't a word they used.

CARMAN: We were blindfolded, our hands were bound, we were forced up against the wall.

TINDELL: People were cocking weapons in the background which you can imagine was an extremely nerve-racking occasion.

CARMAN: Throughout our ordeal we faced constant psychological pressure.

ROBERTS: Pressure intensified by isolation. The hostages said they were held in separate prison cells -- the men in one area and Faye Turney, the only female hostage, in another.

TINDELL: Being in an Islamic country Faye was subjected to different rules than we were.

ROBERTS: During their captivity, the British marines and sailors say they were given rice and flat bread to eat -- and questioned repeatedly.

CARMAN: We were interrogated most nights and presented with two options: If we admitted that we had strayed we would be back on a plane to the UK pretty soon. If we didn't, we faced up to the seven years in prison.

ROBERTS: The hostages said the only time they saw each other was during televised gatherings like these.

CARMAN: On day 12, we were taken to a governmental complex, blindfolded and then given three-piece suits to wear. We watched the president's statement live on television and it was only then that we realized we were to be sent home.

ROBERTS: They were made to line up and meet President Ahmadinejad, one at a time.

CARMAN: My advice to everyone was not to mess this up now, we all wanted to get home.

ROBERTS: And now that they are home, they're not holding their tongues. Not anymore. John Roberts, CNN, Washington.

Shoutout

AZUZ: Time for the Shoutout! Ollie, grind, kickflip, noseslide: In which sport would you most commonly find these tricks? You know what to do! Is it: A) Skiing, B) Swimming, C) Skydiving or D) Skateboarding? You've got three seconds--GO! This was an easy one for you skaters out there -- if you said "D," you landed it! That's your answer and that's your Shoutout!

Skaters' Struggle

ROBERTS: One South Carolina skateboarder was attempting a trick when he had a run-in with the police. Now, he was riding in a part of Charleston where it's illegal to skateboard, but the way the officer stopped the teen's scofflaw ways earned her a suspension. Gray Hall of affiliate WCBD explains how some hope the incident can lead to making Charleston a more skate-friendly town.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GRAY HALL, WCBD REPORTER: This video of Charleston police officer Willie Simmons pushing a skateboarder made national headlines.

GREG MULLEN, CHARLESTON POLICE CHIEF: We are the only organization that has the legal authority to use force when it's necessary and we must make sure we only use force when it is appropriate.

HALL: Charleston Police Chief Greg Mullen suspended the officer for 10 days without pay. He says the officer used unnecessary force. No charges were filed. And while the officers was punished, the chief says it doesn't change the law.

MULLEN: I need to make it very clear to that skateboarding community that regardless of this situation we are not going to condone people illegally destroying city property while skating in areas that they shouldn't be.

RYAN COCKRELL, SKATER AND POUR IT NOW DIRECTOR: Our motto is if your city doesn't have a skate park, then your city is a skate park.

HALL: Ryan Cockrell is a skater and director of a non-profit group called Pour It Now. His group wants to build a bigger skate park for the city. He says it might mean less problems with police.

COCKRELL: The type of park that we want at an access of 20,000 square feet built by specialist out of concrete, I think would lure the skateboarders out of the streets.

HALL: Cockrell says this free skate facility in West Ashley is just not good enough.

COCKRELL: That park is not doing its job to lure skateboarders out of the street, and I think that is obvious in the video of Corey Dowds being pushed off his board.

HALL: Pour It Now is serious about the skate park.

COCKRELL: The goal in Charleston is to raise a million dollars. We have already begun. We have an account open for Charleston, and actually I have the checks now that I need to deposit today to start that account for 1,300 dollars.

HALL: It's money that it hopes will continue to roll in.

COCKRELL: It is going to require skateboarders to get involved and show the city exactly what they want because if city council council members don't skate then they just won't know what's best for skateboarding.

Before We Go

ROBERTS: Before we go: An egg-cellent display of creativity that's no yolk-ing matter. You might have painted a few eggs for the Easter holiday. But one couple in suburban Cleveland painted thousands! Eggshell Land celebrated its 50th anniversary this year. Back in 1957, the creators started with just 750 eggs. But they've raised the bar since then, and this year there are more than 12,000 shells in one display alone! The painstaking process lasts from January until Easter.

Goodbye

ROBERTS: And that puts today's show in the basket! Thanks for watching. I'm Thomas Roberts.
