That's the question one mother is
asking tonight?

Kaine signed into law new changes that
will affect Virginia's waterways.

NO SUPER! 20-years-old and younger will have to

jet ski.

And beginning in 20-12, Virginia
law starts requiring residents to know
how to safely operate a motorboat.

< Webb in the SkyTracker 7 Forecast
Center. I hope you had a great day!
The outer rain bands from Tropical
Storm Gabrielle will reach the North
Carolina coast tonight, bringing that
area 2"-4" or rain. For us, it's a case
of "so close, yet so far away." We'll
only see some high clouds from
Gabrielle Sunday - if we're lucky.
Actually, the second half of your
weekend is looking mostly sunny with
hot highs once again near 90. We're
also watching a slow moving cold front

currently to our northwest. This will
eventually bring scattered showers to
the area Tuesday. As more clouds and
rain chances develop Thursday into next
weekend, expect cooler, more fall-like
temperatures to arrive. Hope you're
having a great weekend!

SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy
fog/haze. Low: 64

SUNDAY: Mostly to partly sunny and
still warm. High: 92

North Carolina Sunday afternoon.

(SOT: Brandy Green/NC Resident)

WE THOUGHT WE D GET IT IN TODAY,
BECAUSE WE RE CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO BE
OUT

HERE TOMORROW.

Meteorologists say Gabrielle is not an
organized storm and is running out of

the warm water fuel that could help it
grow stronger. So while it probably

won t become a hurricane, the storm IS
expected to bring 60 mile an hour winds

and at least 4 inches of rain.

(SOT: Jeff Berardelli/Meteorologist)

15:32:17 It s also going to produce
some beach erosion and some pounding

surf making it really dangerous on the
surf in eastern North Carolina, but

overall this doesn t look like a major
blow for the people in North Carolina.

(STAND-UP BRIDGE: Gwen Belton/CBS

EVEN BOARDING UP THEIR HOMES. BUT THEY
RE HOPING TO GET RAIN, AND LOTS OF IT.

IT S BEEN A VERY DRY SUMMER ACROSS THE
STATE.

(SOT: Bob Birchmeyer/NC Resident)

WE CERTAINLY WANT THE RAIN.

Most of North Carolina is suffering
from drought in some areas rainfall is
20

inches below normal. But Gabrielle
won t stay around long enough to

completely re-hydrate the parched soil.

(SOT: VOICE OF: Jeff

Berardelli/Meteorologist)

15:29:17 After that the storm s going

to make it s way to the north and then

probably hook out to sea.

But the performance was far from
perfect. Freshman long snapper Danny
Aiken from Cave Spring snapped one ball

for a safety and then in the third
quarter sailed one over his punter's

Diplomats vs. Generals W&L quarterback R.J. Varner was :00 more than up for the showdown between
the Generals and the Diplomats.

And so too was the W&L defense as
senior linebacker Bryant Fulk flexes
some muscle and comes up with the stop
as the Generals kept the Diplomats off
the scoreboard all day.

The Generals offense also played
well as Varner connects with Jack
Martin on a nice first down over the
middle.

The two then hooked up for the
eventual game winning *CG final Franklin & Marshall score as the Generals beat Franklin and 0 Marshall 20-to-nothing to open their Washington & Lee season.
