there is pretty good consensus keeping the track of the storm out to sea up the eastern seaboard, closehat this means, the heavy rain, high winds from the storm would remain off the coast. the main concern to our region. as we know, tropical isples, the tracks can change as we head to the weekend. jose is not the only act in the atlantic basin. we have one tropical wave. tropical depression 14 good chance of becoming tropical storm lee. we track them across the atlantic. the seven-day forecast, nice weekend as long as you like summer warmth and humidity. 84 tomorrow. 83 sunday. monday, sun increasing clouds with a high of 80. tuesday, when jose makes the closest path to us, breezy, mivote.orgly cloudy, 77-degrees. behind the air, sunshine by the afternoon. dry start to rosh hashanah. thee ymc relived their prom. they danced to their favorite tune in the gymnasium with refreshments. to be in the spirit you had to be over the age of 55. ♪ ♪ fios is not cable. we're a 100% fiber optic network. and with the new fios gigabit connection... you get our fastest... internet ever. with download s

all of the eastern seaboard, the storm makes landfall somewhere on the west, but the eastern seaboardll totals have been high, and rainfall totals will be in the maybe 3-5 inch range with a few isolated spots higher than that. but across a large area on the coast, that's a lot of water that wants to run offshore, but the problem is the winds are moving onshore and not letting that water that's draining from the land go because the water level is higher out here across the coast. so we're seeing all these images of flooding in downtown jacksonville. we've got big flooding going on in brunswick, up towards savannah. we're going to see gamings at record levels, this is going to cause record-level areas at some of those tidal spots. charleston, same story. so the rain and the wind are problems here with us. in fact, we're going to see these problems go up here over the next few hours. by tonight, the wind pressure kind of relieves just a little bit, and things are going to be better. you mentioned jose here, there is this other storm that was a major hurricane. it went very close to the l

so that means more beach errosion, more dangerous rip currents for us, and the eastern seaboard.so we're watching jose right now moving away. but once again, will likely move back toward the coast in a weakened state. yes, we have maria to contend, with as far as what's happening with jose, it is churning right now off of the coast of new england. and we're talking about a few plows moving toward us, but, dangerous rip current, and that beach errosion will continue through the weekends, into neck week. back over to you. >> developing right now, they're still searching, trying to find survivors, and pull them out of the rubble there in mexico after that 7.1 quake on tuesday. this is at one of the factories down there, fabric factory down there. they holdup their hands to call for quiet so they can listen, if they hear cries they start digging frantically. they have pulling people out, some survivors there, at least 14 people have been rescued. meanwhile, they are getting little closer to pinpointing the exact location of this 12 year old girl who has been trapped under the debris

the big question on this one is when does it turn, and how close does the eastern seaboard get to it? we don't imagine landfall as a high probability issue, but several costal communities could be affected by it. we're watching the carolinas right now. cape hatteras tuesday in the wee hours of the morning. then the tristate area, specifically new york, connecticut and sections of new england, as well. we'll keep an eye on it. watch for dangerous surf levels throughout florida and rip currents up and down the eastern seaboard. we'll update you on the rest of the tropical activity when we see you in a few minutes. right now, back to you both at the desk. >> dave, thank you. we'll get your national forecast in a moment. >>> now to other stories making headlines this 2014 slender man stabbing case will avoid prison after a jury found she was mentally ill. 15-year-old wire and her friend, geyser, told investigators they stabbed a classmate to impress the tall, creepy, fictional character, slender man. the victim was found by a passing cyclist and barely survived her wounds. the girls were

track tracks a little bit further to the west, it could again give us more impact along the eastern seaboard, but again, those models that are starting to track a little further out to sea, good news, if it ends up out here little further to the east, that means that the effect are going to be little bit less. right now our biggest impact are going to be some high surf , the rip currents risk that we have this weekend, and into early next week. so down the shore, do be careful, rain, winds, along the coastline, potential problem. we could be looking for some strong almost tropical force winds. beach errosion, inland, some coastal flooding, could be an issue, inland looking for more along the lines every maybe just a shower or maybe an isolated thunderstorm, as the tropical system tracks close to us, in the part of neck week. weekends: eighty-five today, 83 tomorrow, warm, muggy, throwing in a shower maybe an isolated rumble every thunder chance both saturday, sunday, not wash out, definitely don't need to cancel your outdoor plans, just keep eye to the sky. shower chance for us monday, jan,

i want to implore your listeners, your viewers on the eastern seaboard, listen to your local officialsink one of the things that we saw in harvey is that federal, state and local officials are working incredibly well together along with non-profit organizations in the private sector. it really is amazing. i know chris said that you can't prepare for everything, but having -- the level of preparation we've been seeing, being led by fema and the local emergency managers is pretty impressive. that's why you're going to see loss of life be held to a minimum and making sure we get the recovery operations. i think this is a success story from andrew, from all the -- from katrina, about how to make sure the federal, state and local government starts working together, and i think the american people should feel good about the type of coordination and the lessons learned since those major natural disasters. >> that is really heartening, the lessons that have been applied. and we have seen people at every level working so hard and collaborating together which, as you say, has been encouraging. l

towards the north and then as we head through into wednesday dry conditions for many parts of the eastern seaboard but maybe a threat of some cloud from that system for new york so we head down into the caribbean the main concern is going to be development of hurrican maria which is likely to be a category three system as it hits dominica and indeed the northern part of the leeward islands and it's going to run across puerto rico and on into wards the on of hispania there so at least a category three storm devastating winds are possible still looking dry we're hoping this storm system will curve away and maybe only interact slightly with the bahamas have a still a system which watching very closely. from the icy mountain steps of going out to the flooded lowlands of south america. the high stakes series returns. following the daring journey. from around the globe take extraordinary risks to werner living. risking it all coming soon on al-jazeera. the centenarians of italy one hundred years old and counting when you told me that people like these and you receive these youth feeling that you want to

jose is traveling like this paralleling the eastern seaboard.t is well off the coast, it's out through here. it's nowhere near the jersey shore. we could see gusts 40 to 45 miles per hour. we'll see big waves, but the worst part of the storm is well out to sea. if we flip it over to the tropical forecast model every single one of them suggest it stays 200 to 250 miles out to sea. here's the overall track we look at the quadrant right in here is the right front quadrant it's nowhere near the jersey shore or the delaware beaches. there's good news there. as we look if he wind field this is smaller than irma and harvey and smaller than sandy. hurricane force winds extend outward 30 miles or so. so it's well out to sea. what we know with fairly high confidence monday evening through wednesday morning we'll see waves up to ten feet. there's no way to get around that. there's going to be beach erosion and rip currents and gusting winds 40 to 45 miles per hour. that's about it for the jersey shore and the delaware beaches as far as impact. >> as we get
