- Date posted

- Description
- Hurricane Isaias continues to strengthen Thursday morning and is expected to make landfall in our area by Friday evening to Saturday morning.
The hurricane is due to make landfall along the northern Gulf Coast either late Friday or early Saturday. Right now, the cone includes anywhere between Southwest Alabama and Northwest Florida.
A Storm Surge Warning and a Hurricane Warning have been issued for our area.
With landfall expected in our area, preparations need to be complete by the end of the day today. Conditions are expected to deteriorate through the day Friday.
As for impacts, we are expecting multiple impacts from Isaias.
One concern will be the rain. We will see 4-7" of rain with localized amounts up to 10". With the already saturated ground, this will lead to a flooding threat.

- Against a backdrop of growing speculation about renewed United States military action against Iran, President Donald Trump confirmed Thursday that his administration is actively communicating with Tehran.
"I want to make it clear to everybody that, while Iran is in very bad condition, both Economically and Militarily, and while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect . . . we will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd," Trump said in a social media post.
In the post, Trump reiterated the war's original mission to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Over more than seven months of war, though, restoring oil trade in the Strait of Hormuz has risen to the top of the list of objectives – especially considering Trump's claim "there's no more nuclear threat" – and presents a major obstacle for Republican candidates working to convince voters they should be trusted to lower the cost o...

- Today’s rally marks Trump’s third visit to Texas in less than a month. The visit comes during a competitive midterm cycle, after Trump won Texas by 14 points in his last election.
The event will also feature Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and congressional candidate Carlos De La Cruz, who is running in a newly formed 35th district anchored in Bexar County. De La Cruz, an Air Force veteran and brother of Rep. Monica De La Cruz, is facing Democrat Johnny Garcia.
Large sums of money have been spent by both major parties to sway voters in this cycle, including nearly $175 million in outside advertising to help Republicans preserve control of a Senate seat. Polls show close races in the state, which has contributed to Trump and other national figures prioritizing Texas during the campaign season.

Emergency managers are advising residents to have enough supplies to be on their own for seven days. Customers in Pensacola on Wednesday said shelves are already being cleared of basics, from milk and bread to bottled water.
“Just be safe and get it while you can get it because it's gone, it's going fast,” said grocery shopper Edna Bickleman.
“I got bread, cereal, milk, eggs, crackers, chips, and peanut butter and jelly,” Bickleman said.
But she added that some items were already unavailable: “I couldn't get a lot of stuff because it sold out. Had to buy bread that I never had before.”

Dakota Harper, 22, was in court for a preliminary hearing Monday where prosecutors successfully sought to raise his bond from $10,000 to $20,000. Home confinement was also added as a condition of his bond.
Harper and 22-year-old Felicity Eatmon were each charged last week with first-degree arson and conspiracy to commit arson in connection with a fire at an abandoned home in the 400 block of Maryland Avenue.
The couple, who have amassed a large following on TikTok where they and others on the platform share videos of the couple's life, were arrested and arraigned two days later on Sept. 29.

The fire was reported about 11:15 p.m. on Sept. 27 at an abandoned home with no active utilities. During a probe of the blaze, a criminal complain...

Speaking at the U.N. event marking the third anniversary of the attack, Waltz highlighted the stories of former hostages and survivors in attendance, including Eliya Cohen and Ziv Abud. Cohen was held captive for 505 days, Waltz said, while Abud survived the Nova music festival massacre and spent more than a year not knowing whether Cohen was alive.
Waltz said Cohen resisted Hamas attempts to use him in propaganda videos before his release.

We need to be watching closely. As the system develops, we will get a better handle on where it is headed.
If the system becomes a named storm, the next name is Isaias (pronounced ees-ah-EE-ahs).
There is still a lot of uncertainty here, but regardless of what and if anything forms, we will still be seeing a lot more tropical moisture moving in this weekend.
High rain chances with the possibility of 3-7” on already saturated ground will be our main concern as of now.
The NHC has increased formation chances to 90% in the next 48 hours and 90% over the next 7 days. Stay tuned!

Atmore Police say the investigation used online ads and led suspects to a hotel where officers were waiting. The operation lasted three days, Oct. 1-3, and included seven law enforcement agencies.
"Basically, numerous advertisements were set on these websites where people could click the advertisement and what the advertisement was offering, and begin to make their solicitation and their offering of monetary values and stuff like that based off of what that advertisement was asking," Atmore Police Dept.

Since the 60s, the Department of Justice has monitored elections. Every single election's been monitored. We can't mean this administration, President Trump, is doing the same thing that every single administration has done in our generation and in multiple generations,” Blanche said.

- A suspected terrorist attack aboard a Flydubai flight bound for Israel is raising new questions about global aviation security after authorities said the co-pilot accused of attacking the captain had previously been barred from flying in Oman over concerns about extremist views.
The incident unfolded aboard Flydubai Flight FZ1073 as the plane traveled from Dubai to Tel Aviv with 182 passengers and crew members aboard.
Authorities say Omani co-pilot Hamam al-Hammami attacked the captain with an emergency crash ax and attempted to seize control of the aircraft. The plane rapidly lost altitude before the injured captain was able to unlock the cockpit, allowing passengers and other crew members to intervene. The aircraft ultimately made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.

Now, Morgan Seeley, the niece of Colleen Slemmer, the woman Pike was convicted of killing, said the outcome devastated her family.
“The fact that she did not die made my grandma very sad. I talked to her this morning, and she was crying,” Seeley said.
Much of Slemmer’s immediate family now lives in San Antonio. They shared photographs of her with us as they reflected on the loss that has followed their family for decades.
Seeley never had the opportunity to meet Slemmer. In 1995, Pike and her boyfriend were convicted in connection with Slemmer’s killing in Tennessee. Prosecutors said Slemmer, Pike’s classmate at a job training facility, was lured into a wooded area, where she was tortured, beaten, stabbed and killed. A pentagram carved into her body.

- Description
- With the November midterms approaching, Senate Democrats have blocked Republican-backed legislation aimed at restricting lawmaker stock trading and establishing a national voter ID policy, keeping two politically charged issues at the center of debate on Capitol Hill.
'The Stop Insider Trading Act' failed to advance this week after every Senate Democrat voted no. The bill was sponsored by Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts, R-Neb., who told CNBC in July, “This is common sense legislation to take a strong stand to prevent people from buying new stock once they get here."
