clinton, but here comes the rain and it's still pretty far off to the west and southwest. this will mostly be moving in late tonight and overnight, but in the meantime this thicker cloud cover, that will start to move away soon and we'll see a little bit of a break so we'll be warm again today. i'll show you the timing of the rain and what to expect tomorrow coming up. >> sheena, thank you. we'll see you then. >> this morning students arrived at a local school to find extra police outside. the extra security was reaction to an online threat that spread among students in prince georges county. news 4's adam tuss is live outside of eleanor roosevelt high school in greenbelt with a look at what happened. adam? >> reporter: and good morning, eun. police presence has been coming and going and this is in response to the social media threat that was out there online. for the moment, everything quiet here at roosevelt high school, but it's been a challenging 24 hours. extra police patrols as students

responded on twitter saying he had a very respectful conversation with sergeant johnson's widow. we are awaiting the sentencing for army sergeant bowe bergdahl for deserting his unit in afghanistan. >> yeah, but a decision will not be coming today. recent comments from president trump led to a new defense motion in the case. nbc's morgan radford is tracking developments at fort bragg. >> we were just inside the courthouse when sergeant bergdahl arrived seemingly reassured and calm and no outward signs of emotion. today president trump was front and center in today's sentencing hearing. president trump's comments on bergdahl both on the trail and since becoming president were attacks and unlawful and unfair in his opinion and that's why he says the only way to guarantee a fair sentence is, in fact, if there is no jail time. that's yet defense has fileded a motion to dismiss the case today. it's a motion that the judge will decide

remember, bowe bergdahl did plead guilty just last week and today the judge gave him the opportunity to withdraw that guilty plea. instead, he doubled down. so we'll wait to see what happens on wednesday. i'm morgan radford, nbc news in ft. bragg, north carolina. hollywood is dealing with a new set of sexual allegations. more than 30 women have accused director and writer james toback of sexual harassment. he was nominated for an oscar for the movie "bugsy." he denied allegations saying he had never met his accusers or did so briefly. that is the latest in the series of sexual harassment or sexual assault allegations and it's led to the #metoo going viral with women of all walks of life sharing their experiences.

vent. last year we held revive us and 160,000 people attended right before the presidential election, and i like to call a family meeting when we're at a critical time in our nation's history, and it seems that now we're more divided than we've ever been. we're divided over everything. it seems race divides us. politics divides us, gender, money, so many things and we need unity and a path to get there desperately. so i'm calling an, vent that will be broadcast from the museum of the bible pulling together some of my most brilliant and faithful friends to talk about how we bring hope and healing to a divided nation. >> so tell us about those faithful friends that you've invited to speak and how do you find solutions to some of these problems that seem just so insur mountable. >> the friends that will be joining me is dr. ben carson. he came last year. also robby

adam and stephen kendrick. zack williams will be bringing music and leading us in worship. so think of a national church service/town hall meeting. so we're all live broadcast into movie theaters the same way you'd get a ticket to watch the metropolitan opera, get your popcorn and we'll be singing together and praying together across the nation simultaneously and rolling up our sleeve xs listening to very smart people talk to us about how we can lead the way to bring people together in unity rather than being divided and weakened over everything. >> and there are so many things that divide us. you mentioned some of them. what are some of the steps that you think people can go toward unity in faith? >> that's such a great question and that's what we'll be discussing at revive us 2 tomorrow night. so i want people to get their tickets and one of the things that i find is if we're on opposite sides of an issue, people often try

common denominator, some common ground that we can build on, and often that turns into nothing more than a cat fight after a little while. people holding their ground. i think they need a highest common denominator between us and if we can find that, and i think that begins with faith in god, the god that made us and loves us. i think we can find a much more positive and productive path forward. >> so we grew up watching you on tv, of course. >> yeah. >> you've spent most of your adult life a lot of it dedicated talking about your faith. tell me about that decision and what made you pursue that path. >> you know, i remember as a young man about 18 years old my minister pastor had said to me, kirk, when people ask you how did you find god. i just want you to remember one thing, this was so smart. he said you didn't find god. he wasn't lost. you were and he found you, and that's so true

with the help of people who cared about me, and i think it sent me on a path that made me want to live my life with integrity and gratitude and wanting to serve other people and really live for an audience of one. it served me well, and i'm here talking with you about projects that i'm passionate about, and so i'm really grateful. >> con graj lagds on your success. before we go, tell us how to get more information about revive us and get tickets. >> revive us.com and type in your zip code. there's your theater right on the screen and get your tickets and join us tomorrow. >> kirk cameron, thanks so much for joining us. we appreciate it. >> great to talk to you. >> and she thinks of him as mike seaver. >> i do! >> it was a foggy start to the day and storm team 4 is tracking rain, when it arrives and
