11:18 am
nothing but sunshine around, to closest high clouds in southern virginia. and that is around the circulation of irma, but the storm is moving that way, not that way. and that means we're just going to get a limited amount of moisture from it. as you can see, the bulk of the moisture now is in georgia and south carolina. and it's a good thing florida is getting a chance to dry out. the radar estimates are over 5 inches of rain for virtually every part of the florida peninsula and these areas in yellow, more than 10 inches of rain. and sometimes, in a tropical system, you can't even measure some of it, because the winds blowing the rain sideways, doesn't go into the gauges. this is irma and there's jose. not that far away. and not that far away from the bahamas, either. but fortunately, it's not moving very much and is not going to be moving much.
11:19 am
irma will continue to move toward the northwest, just south of atlanta, going to be more power outages in georgia, because they've got a lot of pine trees and the wind knocks those down very easily, as opposed to the palm trees that they have in florida, that bend with the wind. and you can see the bend in the track, and tuesday, and even into wednesday, it's still in western tennessee, as far as the remnants of it. so just a little bit of the moisture can come up to the northeast. the bulk of that moisture can't come this way. now as far as jose is concerned, look at the loop that the forecast has going. and we're talking about tuesday of next week. and the european model that did so well in the forecast for irma, this is by the 15th and
11:20 am
it's not that far off the coast. and it's going to keep pounding the jersey shore with those waves for another week. just a little bit of moisture with some showers wednesday and thursday here. a big win for the birds in their season opener dpeagainst washington redskins. but did the eagles' victory come at a high price? highlights from yesterday's game, straight ahead.

11:32 am
hopefully get some of the residents back into their homes. this is the information that i have for you from sunny isles, florida, christian cazarez. >> irma may not be a hurricane anymore, but she's still packing a punch. glenn "hurricane" schwartz has the latest. >> moving into georgia right now. florida has some of the toughest building codes in the country, and that helped save probably a lot of properties in that state. not quite the same story in georgia. it will be interesting to see what kind of damage there. the storm itself is headed more towards the northwest. so that means the moisture is not headed in our direction, at least not directly. so we'll get maybe some indirect. the category 1 storm that is now down to tropical storm status, we've got a category 2 hurricane, not that far off the
11:33 am
coast of florida. fortunately, it's not moving towards florida, at least not at this point. but it was a very powerful storm. not that long ago, and it may plague east coast, at least tease the east coast for days to come. irma, 65-mile-an-hour tropical storm right now, moving north-northwest, towards atlanta, at 17 miles an hour. and it will continue to weaken, as it makes that left turn and it's still going to be around, even by wednesday, in western tennessee, so this is going to be a tremendous amount of rain, they've got pine trees in those areas that are fairly easy to knock over with a strong wind. so that can cause more power outages. and also, the combination of irma and jose churning up the ocean, so it looks pretty bad out there or it doesn't look that bad, but that's some rough water and some dangerous water, and it's going to be with us all
