NO SUPER It gives victims' families a JEAN READS choice: they can take 180-thousand
dollars or divide that amount between a
cash payment and a scholarship in the
victim's name.

Some severely-injured victims are
eligible for 90-thousand dollars.
Their tuition and fees will also be
covered for the rest of their time at
Tech.

Less-severely injured victims
qualify for 40-thousand dollars, plus
tuition and fees.

Other victims, including those
who were in Norris Hall at the time,
are eligible for tuition and fees, OR
10-thousand dollars cash.

<< Good evening, I'm chief
meteorologist Robin Reed in the
SkyTracker 7 Forecast Center. It was a
warm day on Wedneday. Danville set a
record at 99 degrees. The heat
continues on Thursday, as highs
approach the century mark. This could
mean record highs for several hometowns
tomorrow. The ridge of high pressure
causing the heat will finally move out
by the end of the week. This will allow
a cold front cross the area Friday with
only an isolated shower or two at best.
The boundary will drop temperatures
back into the 80s this weekend with
less humidity. Rain opportunities stay
low through the weekend, with a bit
better chance of rain early next week.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy and not
as cool. Low: 67 THURSDAY: Sunny &
HOT! Possible record warmth! High: 100

The fire on Waits
Mountain near Low Moor has burned about
120-acres and will likely char many
more before it's out.

The fire was started by
lightning and was first spotted Sunday
evening.

It will probably be
several more days before the fire is

considered fully contained, but it's
not expected to threaten any buildings.
