busy stores and nearly full parking

Today though, more than half the

They may have better luck with the

CK-TITAN RADAR ANALYSIS



< investigate the area of low pressure
off the Carolinas. This low may develop
into a depression or even tropical
storm over the weekend. Latest models
indicate it will graze the Outer Banks
then move north through Virginia Beach,
bringing heavy downpours, gusty winds
and rip currents. However, sinking air
on the outer edges of the low will
actually put us on the dry side of the
storm. So, besides some high
cloudiness, and maybe a stray shower,
overall we'll expect a pleasant weekend
as the low stays to our east and a

sluggish front stays to our north and
west. Highs over the weekend will be
around the upper 80s to near 90.
Sharply cooler temperatures are
forecast to arrive later next week with
a stronger front. FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly
clear. Low: 67, SATURDAY: Mostly sunny
and pleasant. High: 91>>

Enhanced security was also part
of those upgrades.

The front desk can monitor foot
traffic coming inside the building
using access control.

While the staff is still settling
in and unpacking, they're certainly
looking forward to a new school year in
a new environment.

They even hope this new

about learning.
