a long time. it seems like years. it's been at least months. new retail pace and new office space and residential and everything you can think of. now we really see what that finished product might look like. the renderings reveal today they're really exciting. the developer as strategic property partners say the $3 billion project is bigger than initial plans. square feet. the riverwalk is extended under a beneficial bridge and 5 hundred hu,000 square feet of new ground level retail space is going in replacing the entire channelside bay plaza structure that everybody knows. that will

no, it doesn't. paul. >> last year we had our first touch of ought tm in early october. we had a couple of nights into the low to mid-60s. still don't see that at all on the seven-day forecast. in fact, it looks very prop cam today. look at this. big clouds off in the distance. the air mass just the same way it would be in july and august. just a lot of water in the atmosphere, and i've been watching radar all day today. we had one little surge of rain come in off the gulf around 9:00, 10:00 this morning. that moved east across the bay area and rained itself out. now there isn't much, but every once in a while as we watched sky tower, a shower kind of randomly pops up. you can see one has popped up that's new in the past ten minutes. another one popping up up near temple terrace and also new. this is moving all to the east and southeast. they're small, but if you're out and about for the next hour or two, don't be shocked if all of a sudden it starts to rain. that's how unstable and moist it is. there's no real big boundaries around to produce any widespread rain, but certainly enough instability for a couple of shower. everything is moving northwest to southeast. rain is scattered throughout gone in de soto county. we zoom in with rain up and down 27 and lake placid to sebring. one here, one here, one here. nothing like yesterday when we had all kinds of heavy rain along u.s. 27, haines city south of frostproof. now we have scattered showers with heavier rain by orlando today. tomorrow is a full day of autumn and thursday is the tomorrow is the full day of summer. then on thursday you have the first day of autumn, and we still look like mid-summer. 91, missed the record by 3 degrees, and the morning low is 78. so far this month it really has been a continuation of june, july and august heat. we had three days below average, and that was because of clouds and rain from hermine. we had one day average and then we had 16 days out of 20 with the mercury above average. an expensive summer to keep your house cool. no doubt about that. even by our standards it's hot. hurricane season peaked on september 10th, and from now on it drops significantly. then in late october and november a little uptick in activity, and all of that is because cold fronts move into the gulf and they sometimes die out over the gulf. they can produce tropical activity late in the hurricane season, so wat in about a month or so. enhanced satellite shows two systems. here's karl. here's lisa. now, lisa is not going to do much. karl, i think, is a hurricane in about a day or two as it moves northwest. a bit better satellite presentation today on karl, and lisa looks okay with some banding. storms moving west-northwest, and first stop is karl. it's a 40-mile-per-hour tropical it will get kind of close to bermuda and then take a big right-hand hook and miss the island. anytime a system passes east of a land mass, the impact is generally weeker than the storm passing west of them. it shouldn't be too bad for bermuda. lisa does its thing in the atlantic and moves across open water and should be gone in a couple of days. so much for that. now, there's dry air in the west in yellow. there will be dry air weekend from maine all the way down to north carolina. still too early to drag down this dry air or way. we stay in the steambath for the predictable future. it will be cooler and less humid in north carolina to maine, but no way that's getting our way anytime soon. 86 is and the dew point 72 and a west wind at 9. tonight a couple of showers near the coast. we're down to 78 and a mix of during the day. the rain coverage is 20%, 30% and that's it. on thursday partly cloudy, isolated thunderstorms will back up to 88. the average high is down to 88 degrees, and we stay upper 80s and low 90s and nighttime lows in the mid-70s. hey, scott. we have two big games at ray j. in weekend. we have florida state on saturday and the bucs home opener sunday. the rays kick off their final home hear from the skip on how he views the en a officer was killed in action florida was not doing enough to give their

dana young has our back and she has yours. dana young for the florida senate. a return to common sense. problems we face. well i don't believe that's how you get things done in our country. it takes democrats and republicans working together. that's how we got health care for 8 million kids. rebuilt new york city after 9/11. and got the treaty cutting russia's nuclear arms. we've got to bring people together. that's how you solve problems and that's what the usf bulls still have not cracked the top 25 the usf bulls have not cracked the top 25. tle get a chance the 'noles as extra motivation this time around. still fresh, cook ran wild around the defense. he had 266 yards and three scores and the 'noles won 34-14 in tallahassee. usf head coach willie taggart says special attention has to be paid to number 4 to avoid a repeat at raymond jam james. >> this is a team sport and game, and we have to play well, offense and sfeshl teams as well i think if we would have did anything offensively last year it would have helped you're guys to where they wouldn't have had the opportunity to continue to keep feeding the ball to cook. you know, you give it to him so break point.eventually he's on - >> there's a chance the bucs will be without key players this weekend. they expect to learn more about the injuries to doug martin's hamstring and ankle once the mri results come back. it could be a daytime ci it's lining up in the backfield for the defensive end. dirk koetter expects a more inspired effort this week in the home opener against the l.a. rams than what they saw last week against the cardinals. he thinks the international makeup will show some fight this weekend. >> i expect fantastic look at the cardinals with a disappointing loss. they came back, and you know, got after us pred good yesterday. look at the rams, who we play this week. the rams lost 28-0 on their opener and came back with a huge win against seattle yesterday. we haven't been tested yet this season in that department. >> six mother games to catch the rays at home this season starting tonight against the new york yankees. drew smyly gets the start tonigh year. he's 0-3 with a 9.31e.r.a. in this final home stand the rays want to finish strong. it's been a tough season with more downs than ups. kevin cash was asked if he feels more frustrated about the season or happy with how they've come together a little better in the second half. >> that's a good question. it's a very even 50/50 balance we're frustrated with where we're at right now, but very happy with the ways the guys -- the effort level and how they compete over the last month. this last road trip after the first three games in new york, the guys played really well and that was good to see. we have to find a way to do it for a full season, and i think a lot of teams and especially us, that's a balance you try to find. we just got to avoid those really tough stretches that we had. >> yeah. those touch stretches he's referring to in the first half that month and did not win the game, they would be in the picture. they would be a competitive team down the stretch with the wildcard. it just takes a cold streak to ruin your season, and they think a hot season can turn it around. >> that's what we hope for for sure. >> thank you. whether when we come back at 6:30, we learn more about the suspect in the new york/new jersey bombing. talks about dealing we tragedy on his job oh yea, everything is digital now-a-days. this thing never leaves my side. that is why i signed up for publix digital

showers around hillsborough county. they're moving from northwest to southeast. if you're underneath one of those showers, there's some pretty good rain. most of you don't get wet at all, but we'll zoom in and show you exactly where the rain is. flick the button. there we go. you can see the showers here. heavy rain near brandon, and then there's rain where i-4 and 75 kind of hook up in the intersection. this is all moving to the southeast, and also this is 60, and this is blrandon and this i pine crest. this is moderate to heavy rain moving -- that's heavy rain. moving to the southeast towards pinecrest, and if you watch us in plant city, there's some rain northwest of you. i think it's probably going to it's going to be close. elsewhere lake placid right over you there's some showers. that is moving slowly to the southeast, and that has been a wet day or wet afternoon in orlando. look at the rain in downtown, all the way down to orlando international and curves back

storms in a season is 12. we're at 13. so it's an active season for sure. 6 is the average number of hurricanes. we had 4, and i think karl should become a hurricane in the next day or two. major hurricaned is 1 and the average is 3. when everything is said and done, it will be near or above average hurricane season for sure, and that was expected as el nino went away in the pacific. this is karl. that's moving west-northwest, and this is lisa. it looks pretty impressive on satellite, but karl shouldbe the stronger of the two. in fact, karl should become a hurricane in a couple of days,
