north. so would mean a long duration event especially down the shore. so that's where i do anticipate major impacts out of this system. so as we look at the official track, take a look. as we move toward 2:00 p.m. on saturday, just north and east of cape hatteras but saturday to monday it really doesn't move a whole lot out to sea so that will be the danger and the concern down the shore. look at some of the impacts across the area. lesser impacts once you move farther north and west. moderate impacts along the i-95 corridor. major impacts once we move down the shore. so take look at future wind gusts by seven morning, we're already talking about the potential for tropical storm force winds down the shore. so saturday conditions going downhill and look at 7:00 o'clock. gusting up to 50 miles per hour places like atlantic city, wildwood, moving over to dover and millville. then by sunday morning, we're looking at winds gusting up to 40 miles per hour and then they ramp back up during the height of the storm by sunday afterno afternoon. gusting upwards of 50 perhaps even 60 miles per hour down the shore. so power outages, beach erosion, coastal flooding will be a concern. so look at the labor day weekend forecast down the shore. beautiful for tomorrow though that is going to be the pick day but take look at saturday. sunday into monday even lingering clouds and rain. so 75 degrees the high on saturday. 70 on sunday uppe up 70s on mon. three to five or more inches of rain possible. we'll break it down again. down the shore, we have that rip current danger all labor day weekend on saturday, clouds, p.m. showers, moving in. winds gusting up to 40 miles an hour on sunday gusting up to 60 on monday lingering showers winds gusting up to 35 miles per hour. in philadelphia, we could see one to 2-inches of rain out of this system. it looks like the wettest of the several days for the holiday weekend for philadelphia would be on sunday. so those rainfall chances tomorrow, 91. saturday afternoon and evening ramping up. sunday 70% and look at this particular computer model showing some of the rainfall totals across the area. you can see one to 2-inches around philadelphia. but where you see that red shade that is three plus inches of rainfall. once you move down the shore. so of course the highest impacts will be the farther south and east ahead away from philadelphia but great weather tomorrow once again sunshine low humidity the temple game looking good. but watching the track. watching the coast. new computer models still coming in. a new update at 11:00. back to you. >> all right, thank you, scott. you can stay ahead of the storm with the fox 29 weather app. you can see life radars and get alerts sent right to your phone find it in the apple and google play stores. all right. let's check in with the eagles. sean bell is here to tell us about that. >> the fourth and final preseason game but the starters they're not going to play. so all about the bench and the guys, well, they got it done. there was one backup that really shined big and he was a guy that basically set you're not cutting me. i'm uncuttable. that's coming up next in sports. big oil polluters. they have a friend in pennsylvania. millionaire pat toomey. toomey voted to protect their special tax breaks. saving oil companies twenty-four billion dollars. and big oil polluters have given toomey seven hundred thousand dollars in campaign contributions. tax breaks for them. campaign contributions for him. pat toomey. he's helping big oil polluters and millionaires. not the rest of us. lcv victory fund is responsible for the content of this advertising. >> eagles in their final preseason action which basically is a showcase for all the backups. guys trying to make the team that's on the fringe of that 43 man roster usually at this point we actually know what the starters are going to be in week one. eagles in limbo with the offensive line. lane johnson still waiting on the game in that 10 game suspension. everyone still waiting for the sample from the drug test. he eagles are preparing for lane to start against the browns. process taking a little longer than everyone predicted but, again, the backups all about the backups in this game. chase daniels luck he has a spot on the team. he played awful today. interception in the red zone one of two interceptions on the night. one resulted in this. look at this former temple owl robbie anderson showing he can do it nfl too. 44-yard touchdown from bryce pet pet tee. 61 yards on the game. play of the game was paul turn turner. straight up the middle. after a bunch of catches. he basically said you guys cannot cut me. it's not possible. played great. skip to the fourth quarter, former penn state rookie christian hack ken burg just hike in college. throw as pick right to ed reynolds and reynolds is gone. clear pass 90 yards to the end zone eagles win 14-six. improving four-zero in the preseason. not a big deal because it's preseason. still you want to win every game you play in but the paul turner absolutely dominated. >> he's done everything we've asked him to do. he's making it hard on us and that's what i challenged all the young guys really to make it hard on myself and howie and the personnel staff when we have to make these decisions by saturday at 4:00 o'clock. >> all right. major story this preseason is colin kaepernick sat down during the national anthem in first three preseason gales. he said he will not honor the flag until america deals with the social crisis african-americans are dealing with in this country. he spoke to former nfl and green beret nate boyer before the games before nine minutes. they dialogue back and and forth to come to some type of understanding he chose to kneel during the national anthem in san diego. his teammate eric reid actually kneeled also and earlier today this picture came out of cap in practice wearing socks that pictured policemen as pigs. this coming right after some of the shootings involving unarmed african-americans and officers and later in the 11:00 o'clock i'll talk a little bit about where this is going. because cap is now actually being compared to murder they are my goodness. >> things going too far. i'll have my take on that coming up at 11:00 o'clock. >> be interested to hear what you have to say on that, sean. that will do it for us at 10:00. iain standing by what's bumming up at 11:00. >> hur main hermine slamming into the coast of florida with high winds, heavy rain the storm on
