THE REST OF THE LABOR DAY
WEEKEND INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK. I'LL TELL YOU WHEN WE WILL
SEE
SOME RELIEF AS THE NEWS STARTS
NOW...
WATE 6 ON YOUR SIDE NEWS AT 6:00
STARTS NOW
MARK
IT IS FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE
AGAIN!
SO WE START TONIGHT WITH W-
A-T-E SPORTS ANCHOR MARC
WHITEMAN.
MARC
THANKS MARK.
NOW YOU KNOW, WE'RE ALL BIG FANS
OF THE VOLS HERE AT W-A-T-E.
TURNS OUT, WE'RE NOT THE ONLY
ONES....
"HERE'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT
SPORTS, THE LAST MAN STANDING,
ALWAYS WINS. IT DOESN'T MATTER
IF YOU GET
KNOCKED DOWN. BUT WILL YOU GET
BACK UP? THE JOURNEY BACK TO A
FIGHTERS FEET, IT'S A PROCESS,
TAKEN ONE STEP AT
A TIME. SO HERE'S OUR NEXT
STEP."
"HERE'S TO THE SECOND ROUND OF
THIS...."
MARK
"WILL YOU GET BACK UP?" THAT'S A
GOOD QUESTION.
MARC, LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW
TODAY'S GAME HAS GONE SO FAR.
MARC
IN TWO WORDS: NOT GOOD.. WE'RE
LEGALLY PROHIBITED FROM SHOWING
THE ACTUAL
HIGHLIGHTS, BUT WE DID FIND A
SOLID
WORK AROUND..
WATE STOP MOTION STUDIOS... VOLS
OUT OF THE T FOR THE FIRST TIME
THIS YEAR..
TENNESSEE A 26 POINT FAVORITE
AGAINST THE PANTHERS.. SECOND
PLAY OF THE SEASON, TY
CHANDLER COUGHS IT UP.. GEORGIA
STATE FALLS ON IT AND
TURNS IT INTO SIX..
THEN TENNESSEE GETS GROOVING..
JARRETT GUARANTANO -- MARQUEZ
CALLAWAY..
CALLAWAY GOES UP AND GETS IT..
TOUCHDOWN TENNESSEE..
THE FIRST OF THE YEAR.. CHANDLER
MAKES UP FOR HIS PRIOR
MISTAKE -- 31 YARD SCORE DOWN
THE
SIDELINE AND TENNESSEE IS ON
TOP..
BUT INSTEAD OF PUTTING ON MORE
STEAM, THEY HIT THE BRAKES..
PANTHERS GO 81 YARDS IN 16
PLAYS,
DAN ELLINGTON HITS CORNELIUS
MCCOY IN THE SEAM, AND THE
PANTHERS AREN'T GOING AWAY..
NO ONE EXPECTED TENNESSEE TO
CONTEND FOR THE SEC TITLE THIS
YEAR..
BUT GETTING ALL THE CAN HANDLE
IN
GAME ONE FROM A TEAM THAT
FINISHED LAST YEAR 2-10... IS
THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY
DREW UP..
MARK
THANKS MARC.

SQUAD, AS WELL AS OTHER PLACES

MARK:
YOUR SIDE NEWS AT 6..
MARK;
A GUNMAN OPENS FIRE AT A
FOOTBALL STADIUM IN ALABAMA,
LEAVING CLOSE TO A DOZEN PEOPLE
HURT.
WHAT OFFICERS SAY WAS BEHIND THE
ATTACK.
SHEA
THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL BUILD
THROUGH THE REST OF THE LABOR
DAY WEEKEND. I'LL TELL
YOU WHEN WE WILL SEE SOME RELIEF
COMING UP.
MARK
CHAOS BROKE OUT LAST NIGHT AT A
HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME IN
ALABAMA.
SHOTS RANG OUT.
WHEN THE GUNSMOKE
CLEARED, CLOSE TO A DOZEN PEOPLE
WERE HURT: INCLUDING 6
TEENAGERS.
WE WANT TO WARN YOU, THIS VIDEO
IS UNSETTLING.
CROWD SCREAMS
MARK
THIS HAPPENED AT LADD-PEEPLES
STADIUM IN MOBILE.
POLICE SAY THEY HAVE THE
TEENAGER WHO WAS BEHIND IT... IN
CUSTODY.
DEANGELO PARNELL IS ACCUSED OF
OPENING FIRE.
HE'S 17.
"THIS WAS A COWARDLY ACT BY AN
INDIVIDUAL THAT DID NOT KNOW HOW
TO DEAL WITH THE CONFLICT OR THE
DISAGREEMENT THAT HE WAS HAVING
WITH SOMEONE ELSE
OTHER THAN RECKLESSLY
DISCHARGING A FIREARM INTO A
CROWDED VENUE."
MARK
DEANGELO PARNELL TURNED
HIMSELF IN EARLIER TODAY. HE'S
CHARGED WITH NINE COUNTS
OF ATTEMPTED MURDER.
NOW HERE'S KNOXVILLE'S MOST
ACCURATE FORECAST FROM
THE WATE 6 ON YOUR SIDE STORM
TEAM.
MARK
TIME FOR ANOTHER LOOK AT YOUR
FORCAST..
6 ON YOUR SIDE METEOROLIGIST
KEN WEATHERS JOINING US NOW -
KEN:
THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL
CONTINUE TO BUILD WITH LIMITED
RAIN
CHANCES THROUGH THE UPCOMING
WORK WEEK. THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY
WILL
CONTINUE TO BUILD THROUGH THE
HOLIDAY WEEKEND INTO THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK WITH LITTLE, IF ANY
OPPORTUNITIES FOR RAIN.
IT WILL REMAIN MOSTLY CLEAR AND
SEASONABLE OVERNIGHT AS LOWS
FALL OFF IN THE LOW TO MID
60S
WHICH IS PRETTY CLOSE TO AVERAGE
FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. OUTDOOR
PLANS THE REST OF THE HOLIDAY
WEEKEND LOOK JUST FINE AS
WE WILL REMAIN MOSTLY SUNNY AND
DRY, BUT AFTERNOON HIGHS WILL
CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 80S TO
LOWER 90S FOR BOTH SUNDAY AND
MONDAY.
IT WILL START TO GET A LITTLE
MORE HUMID AS WELL EACH DAY
THROUGH
MID-WEEK AS A MORE SOUTHERLY
FLOW WILL INCREASE THE "AIR YOU
CAN WEAR" FEEL. SO
EVEN THOUGH LABOR DAY IS
CONSIDERED THE "UNOFFICIAL" END
OF SUMMER, IT WILL STILL FEEL
LIKE IT
THROUGH AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF
THE UPCOMING WEEK. HIGHS WILL
REACH THE LOW TO MID
90S WITH "FEELS LIKE"
TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER
90S BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
THE GOOD NEWS IS A COOL FRONT
WILL
SWEEP THROUGH THE REGION EARLY
THURSDAY. THE BAD NEWS IS, THERE
WON'T BE MUCH RAIN, IF ANY
AT ALL WITH IT AS IT MOVES
THROUGH.
WE WILL FEEL A BREAK IN THE
HUMIDITY LEVELS THROUGH THURSDAY
NIGHT THROUGH NEXT
SATURDAY
ALLOWING OVERNIGHT LOWS
TO DIP INTO THE 50S AGAIN AND
DAYTIME
HIGHS BACK BELOW AVERAGE IN THE
MID 80S.
AT THIS TIME, WE STILL DO NOT
THINK THAT DORIAN WILL HAVE ANY
IMPACT
ON OUR AREA AS IT WILL MOST
LIKELY REMAIN OFF THE COAST OF
FLORIDA AND IMPACT MORE
OF THE CAROLINA COASTLINES. IT
IS STILL A MAJOR HURRICANE AND
COULD REMAIN AT THIS LEVEL
THROUGH THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND
CAUSING HIGH SURF, RIP CURRENTS
AND COASTAL EROSION
ISSUES FROM MIAMI TO
JACKSONVILLE
THROUGH LABOR DAY. IMPACTS TO
THE CAROLINAS LOOK TO BE TOWARDS
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK, SO
WE WILL OF COURSE MONITOR
THIS STORM AND KEEP YOU UPDATED.
TONIGHT: MOSTLY CLEAR AND
SEASONABLE. LOW: 65.
SUNDAY: MORE SUNSHINE AND HEAT.
HIGH: 91.
LABOR DAY: MOSTLY SUNNY, HOT AND
A
LITTLE MORE HUMID. HIGH: 91.
KEN
