cbs' dave malkoff is in pageant parish, bermuda, and leads us off tonight. dave, good evening. >> reporter: good evening, adriana. wow, what a wild night we had as this hurricane made direct landfall on the island. it was hard for us to sleep through it, but our night was nothing compared to the night of these fishermen in the worst part of the storm. the crew of the pescador lost an engine but saved themselves, chaining their boat to a pair of cruise ship anchors in the harbor, all during hurricane ernesto's worst winds. >> 100-mile-anhour gusts i'm guessing. still holding strong. >> reporter: the storm knocked out power to 70% of bermuda and stripped trees of their branches, but many vacationers had already left the tiny and wealthy island.

if you look at that piece of coral down there, you can see how the 30-foot waves are just crashing on that. there used to be a beach here. when ernesto skirted puerto rico earlier this week it was a tropical storm that knocked out power to about 700,000 customers. >> oh, my god! >> reporter: even hundreds of miles offshore, ernesto's danger came to the u.s. east coast. powerful surf pulled this house into the atlantic on north carolina's outer banks. from florida to maine, the national weather service has issued rip current alerts to over 1 million people, near 10 million people are under a high surf advisory. in new york city, beachgoers are not allowed to get into the water, but many still showed up. >> they closed the water, but we can sit on the beach. >> reporter: the head of the bermudian government had to actually go on emergency radio to scold people who were out there, adriana, swimming in the eye of the storm, ignoring the danger in all of that. these things are crank powered, but we are told that crews are out there trying to put the lights back on for people all over bermuda. >> swimming in the eye of the storm. unbelievable. dave malkoff, thank you. let's go now to

meteorologist vanessa murdock for more on ernesto and those rip current threats. vanessa. adriana, ernesto continues to churn up the seas, making swimming especially dangerous along the eastern sea board. and that high risk of rip currents persists tomorrow from florida all the way up to maine. in addition, wave heights will be amplified. the center of the storm is so far away from us, the storm does push the waves right to the shoreline. wave heights will be crashing at 4 to 8 feet along the eastern coast tomorrow. now, the latest with ernesto. it is a category 1 hurricane. winds are sustained at 75 miles per hour, and the storm is moving slowly away from bermuda. hence, tonight there will still be gusty winds and potentially flash flooding there as the storm moves slowly away, but it will pick up forward pace, maintain category 1 status through monday as it makes its way off the coast of

newfoundland. in the meantime, locally here at home, we're looking at those rough seas, but for the interior of the country, excessive heat warnings, high heat advisories in play. it will feel as hot as 111 for both little rock and new orleans as we make our way through sunday. adriana, back to you. >> vanessa murdock, thank you. to the campaign trail now with all eyes on pennsylvania this weekend. donald trump rallied in wilkes-barre today and kamala harris makes three stops in the state tomorrow. cbs' natalie brand is tracking it all. natalie, good evening. >> reporter: good evening to you, adriana. both candidates are targeting pennsylvania and traveling to this key battleground this weekend. in the past two presidential elections the state was decided by fewer than 100,000 votes. revving up supporters in wilkes-barre, pennsylvania, former-president donald trump has focused his latest lines of attacks against his rival on the economy. >> is anything less expensive under kamala harris or crooked joe? no, no. it's been devastating.

in her speech yesterday, kamala went full communist. >> reporter: it comes as vice president kamala harris has unveiled her first round of economic policy proposals. >> as president, i will be laser focused on creating opportunities for the middle class. >> reporter: she rallied friday in north carolina, one of the battlegrounds where new polling shows the presidential race has tightened since harris entered it nearly a month ago. her running mate, minnesota governor tim walz, campaigning saturday in nebraska where he was born, touted the campaign's new plan. >> lowering the cost of rent and the opportunity to own your own home. continuing to cut the costs of prescription drugs that we all depend on. >> reporter: high prices are top of mind. >> everything has definitely went up, everything. >> prices are terrible, and our kids -- our kids are going to suffer. >> reporter: immigration also a top issue for this couple at trump's rally on saturday. >> safety.

safety of our country. the borders aren't secured. >> reporter: now, new numbers released by customs and border protection show illegal crossings at the southern border in july dropped more than 30% from june, now at their lowest level in nearly four years. this follows president biden enacting asylum restrictions in june after record crossings last year. adriana. >> natalie brand, thank you. our coverage of the democratic national convention begins on monday at 5:00 p.m. eastern on cbs news 24/7 and right here on cbs at 10:00 p.m. eastern. secretary of state antony blinken is headed to israel this weekend seeking a diplomatic break through for a cease-fire deal after ten months of war. today more blood shed. at least 18 people, all from the same family, were killed by an israeli airstrike on the territory. cbs' ramy inocencio is in tel aviv with the latest.

>> reporter: adriana, good evening. secretary of state antony blinken's return here to israel could be seen as a positive sign that negotiators are getting close to the cease-fire deal. his mission is to finalize a bridging proposal, basically suggestions to find common ground in the final gaps of the demands of both israel and hamas. president biden said, quote, we are closer than we've ever been, but hamas official hours ago pushed back on that positivity, saying that they were deceptive claims. all of that said, a qatari official tells cbs news that hamas is still fully engaged in talks and, adriana, mediators say they will reconvene in cairo before the end of next week with the goal of finally reaching that deal. >> ramy inocencio, thank you so much. today ukraine destroyed a strategically important bridge in russia. it happened in russia's kursk region as ukraine presses ahead with its cross' border military offensive. cbs' ian lee is in kyiv. >> reporter: good evening, adriana.

ukraine's top general describes the fighting as going to plan as his troops push deeper into russia. smiles return to the faces of ukrainian soldiers. for them, they're once again moving in the right direction. this soldier says it has been tough, but everything will be awesome. after months on the defensive, ukrainian forces smashed across the russian border, taking more than 400 square miles of territory according to kyiv, whose troops pour into the kursk region capturing more russian soldiers by the day. the attack shocked the kremlin and humiliated president vladimir putin. moscow has been slow to react, but after more than two years the sheer weight of russia's military machine has ground down ukrainian defenses in the east of the country. this soldier, fresh from the fighting in kursk, says the advance is getting more difficult. yesterday ukraine released a video of a strike on a key bridge, a supply line for

russian reinforcements. the kremlin accused ukraine of using a highly accurate american-made rocket. president volodymyr zelenskyy updated the nation. the operation, he says, is about destroying the logistics of the russian army and draining their reserves, adding, we must inflict maximum damage on all russian positions and we're doing that. kyiv's incursion also brought the war into the homes of many russians along the border. moscow says it's evacuated more than 120,000 people. this turnaround for ukraine is a badly needed boost to morale, adriana, but russia keeps taking ground in other parts of ukraine, and tonight kyiv is telling residents in the strategic eastern town to get out while they still have the chance. >> ian lee, thank you so much. today cbs news has learned that ousted congressman george santos is expected to plead

guilty to multiple felony counts. santos is charged with 23 counts, including wire fraud, money laundering and theft of public funds. we reached out to santos and his attorney, but they did not respond. new rules take effect today, impacting anyone buying or selling a home. the change settles a massive antitrust lawsuit that alleged home sellers were forced to pay artificially inflated commissions to agents. cbs' elise preston is in englewood, california, with more. elise. >> reporter: adriana, good evening to you. this is the first day of new rules which change real estate deals nationwide. home buyers, sellers and agents will all feel the impact, but in different ways. >> the property was built in 1983 and has vaulted ceilings. >> reporter: danielle edney is the realtor for this house in inglewood, california. while she waits for a buyer, beginning today the way she and agents across the country get paid is changing.

>> any commission for a buyer has to be done up-front while you are submitting an offer. >> this is cute. >> reporter: would-be buyers as part of a $418 million realtor antitrust settlement will have to sign a payment contract before an agent even shows them a home. >> it is supposed to be better for the buyer for transparency's sake, and that's fine. we want to be transparent. >> reporter: home sellers no longer have to offer compensation to the buyer's agent. typically the seller has paid the commission that is usually split between the listing and buyer's agents. now the home buyer could have to covr that cost. >> the realtor will be able to talk about the services that they will provide, and the consumer can negotiate how much they are willing to pay for the services that are being provided. >> reporter: these commissions can add thousands of dollars for buyers hoping to find something affordable.

redfin says nearly 1 in 10 homes nationwide is valued at at least $1 million. >> find a really good realtor who can kind of help you through all of the steps of the process. >> reporter: this has been a somewhat sluggish summer when it comes to home sales, but buyers and sellers may jump back in when the federal reserve is expected to cut interest rates next month. adriana. >> thank so much. straight ahead on the "cbs weekend news, how school buses are putting energy into the grid. plus, new delivery. this capsule is delivering food in space. but i was still masking my depression. so i talked to my doctor. she told me i could build on my wins, without changing my antidepressant. rexulti, when added to an antidepressant, significantly reduced depression symptoms more than an antidepressant alone. and less depression... that's a win. rexulti can cause serious side effects. elderly dementia patients have an increased risk of death or stroke.
