WEATHER CENTER DEREK. ALL RIGHT. NO HURRICANES HERE RIGHT NOW. NO, WERE DONE WITH THAT. BUT WERE JUST LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF LIGHT SHOWERS HERE IN SOME SPOTS. OTHER THAN THAT, YOUR WEATHER IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT YOU SEE THERE BEHIND ME. JUST LOOKING AT SOME CLOUDY SKIES HERE AND THERE IN SOME SPOTS. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, ENJOY THE QUIETNESS WHILE IT LASTS BECAUSE SOME OF US COULD RUN INTO SOME OF THOSE AGAIN. POP UP SHOWERS, MAYBE A COUPLE OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, AND WEVE STARTED TO SEE THAT HERE OVER THE LAST HOUR OR SO, ESPECIALLY FOR YOU IN SOUTHERN HANCOCK COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI, NEAR PEARLINGTON AREA AND MAINLY SOUTH OF I-10 RIGHT NEAR BAY SAINT LOUIS, IS WHERE WERE SEEING SOME OF THOSE HEAVIER SHOWERS. NORTH SHORE NEAR MANDEVILLE. ALSO TOWARDS THE SOUTH SHORE, LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF LIGHT SHOWERS HERE, BEGINNING TO POP UP HERE AS WELL. LETS WIDEN OUT THE PICTURE THOUGH A LITTLE BIT AND SHOW YOU WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING. AND REALLY, YOU CAN SEE MUCH OF VERY DRY WEATHER CONDITIONS REALLY ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION HERE. BEGINNING TO SET UP. AND OVERALL, THE WEATHER PATTERN LOOKS VERY SIMILAR HERE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. GET TO THAT HERE IN A SECOND. BUT TEMPERATURES RIGHT NOW AS YOU STEP OUTSIDE UPPER SECONDS LOWER 90S HERE ACROSS THE BOARD. AND WERE SEEING FEEL-LIKE TEMPERATURES NOW INTO THE 90S WHEN YOU FACTOR IN THAT RELATIVE HUMIDITY. IN FACT, IT FEELS LIKE 100 AT LAKEFRONT. AND VERY CLOSE TO THAT RIGHT NOW IN SLIDELL FEELING LIKE 98 CURRENTLY IN HAMMOND. AND THE FORECAST FOR THE REST OF THE REST OF THE DAY, A MOSTLY SUNNY ONE, MAYBE AN ISOLATED POP UP SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM. STILL POSSIBLE TEMPERATURES AROUND 89 TODAY. SO VERY AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. AND YOU CAN SEE VERY SIMILAR LIKE NUMBERS TODAY ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA IN GENERAL WITH THOSE HIGHS INTO THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S, THERE IS SOME OF THOSE POP UP SHOWERS THAT COULD BEGIN TO INITIATE HERE, MAINLY FOR THE SOUTH SHORE TODAY AROUND 4:00. AND THEN AS WE HEAD INTO 8:00, A LOT OF THAT HERE, ACTIVITY BEGINS TO SETTLE DOWN OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY TOMORROW MORNING. OVERALL, A MOSTLY CLEAR ONE. AND WERE LOOKING AT A MOSTLY CLEAR ONE, MAYBE SOME PATCHY FOG HERE FOR TOMORROW MORNING IN SOME SPOTS HERE. AND THEN AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW AFTERNOON LATER ON AROUND 5:00 OR SO, THE NORTH SHORE COULD BEGIN TO SET UP WITH SOME OF THOSE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND MAYBE A FEW THUNDERSTORMS THAT COULD DEVELOP AND THEN YOU CAN SEE IT BEGINS TO WINDING DOWN AND MOVE ITS WAY SOUTH. AS WE HEAD TO ABOUT 11:00 AT NIGHT HERE, HERES 7 A.M. FRIDAY, MAYBE A COUPLE OF SPOTTY FOG HERE IN SOME SPOTS, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, WERE LOOKING OKAY. NOW, I DO WANT TO SHOW YOU WHATS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN THE TROPICS. THE REMNANTS HERE OF GORDON ACROSS THE CENTRAL SUBTROPICAL ATLANTIC HAS ABOUT A 60% CHANCE OF REDEVELOPMENT. NO THREAT TO US. ITS GOING TO CONTINUE TO MOVE OUT TO SEA. MEANWHILE, IN THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA, WELL HAVE TO MONITOR THIS AREA VERY CLOSELY OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. SOME MODELS ARE A LITTLE BIT AGGRESSIVE DEVELOPING THIS HERE AND ALSO MOVING INTO THE GULF OF MEXICO RIGHT NOW, THERES NO IMMEDIATE THREAT. ITS JUST SOMETHING TO WATCH HERE. FOR NOW, IT HAS ABOUT A 20% CHANCE OF DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS. SO KEEP IT HERE. WDSU WILL KEEP YOU UPDATED ON THAT SYSTEM IN THE CARIBBEAN. WDSU FIRST WARNING SEVEN-DAY FORECAST HIGH TEMPERATURES, LOWER 90S STARTING TOMORROW. THAT WILL CONTINUE REALLY THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THIS WEEK HERE COMING UP, INCLUDING THE WEEKEND. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS HERE AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW. LESS CHANCES OF THAT FRIDAY, AND ALSO THE WEEKEND. KEEP IN MIND AGAIN, THE PATCHY FOG COULD SET UP THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. FIRST OFFICIAL DAY OF THE FALL SEASON ON SUNDAY. FEELING

Liberty Bridge architect discusses its impact [Video]

CAMPAIGNING IN MICHIGAN AND NEW YORK THIS WEEK. 20 YEARS AGO, THIS MONTH, THE LIBERTY BRIDGE IN GREENVILLE OPENED FOREVER CHANGING DOWNTOWNS LANDSCAPE. AND AS WE CELEBRATE HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH, MIGUEL ROSALES, THE BRIDGES ARCHITECT, IS REFLECTING ON ITS IMPACT HERE IN THE UPSTATE AND HIS JOURNEY IN THE UNITED STATES. REY LLERENA SPOKE WITH HIM EARLIER TODAY. HE JOINS US LIVE AT FALLS PARK WITH MORE. RAY. NIGEL. HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE TAKE SELFIES AND CROSS THE LIBERTY BRIDGE EVERY DAY. BUT IT WAS THE VISION OF A GUATEMALAN IMMIGRANT THAT HELPED TRANSFORM GREENVILLES DOWNTOWN. FOR THE LONGEST TIME, THERE HAD BEEN A HIGHWAY COVERING THE FALLS. MIGUEL ROSALES, REFLECTING ON 20 YEARS SINCE THE LIBERTY BRIDGE OPENED AT FALLS PARK. HE WAS RECENTLY IN GREENVILLE TO MARK THE ANNIVERSARY. THE AFTERNOON OF THE DAY I ARRIVED, I COULD SEE SO MANY HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE CROSSING THE STRUCTURE THAT AFTERNOON AND IT WAS A VERY REWARDING EXPERIENCE TO SEE HOW ITS BEING USED. ROSALES IMMIGRATED TO THE U.S. FROM GUATEMALA IN THE 1980S BEFORE STARTING HIS OWN COMPANY. AFTER GRADUATING FROM MIT. HE SAYS THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE LIBERTY BRIDGE IS THE WATERFALL. WE DECIDED TO MOVE IT AWAY AND CURB IT AND BASICALLY CREATE LIKE AN AMPHITHEATER EFFECT, WHERE YOU ARE STANDING ON THE BRIDGE, YOU HAVE CABLES IN THE BACK, AND THEN YOU HAVE A COMPLETELY OPEN VIEW OF THE WATERFALL. ROSALES AND HIS FIRM HAVE GONE ON TO DESIGN DOZENS OF BRIDGES ACROSS THE U.S. I THINK BRIDGES ARE VERY IMPORTANT. STRUCTURES ARE THINGS THAT PEOPLE RELATE TO THEM VERY CLOSELY BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, BRIDGES ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. HE SAYS ITS HIS WAY OF SHARING A GIFT TO A COUNTRY THAT HAS PROVIDED HIM WITH SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY. IM VERY GRATEFUL, YOU KNOW, TO HAVE BECOME A CITIZEN HERE IN THE US. AND ALSO HAVING BEEN ABLE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, I THINK EVERY TIME THAT WE BUILD A NEW STRUCTURE OR A NEW BRIDGE AND A NEW BRIDGE OPENS, IT CREATES A NEW MARK. RIGHT. I MEAN, THIS BRIDGE MEANS SO MUCH TO OUR COMMUNITY, SUCH A BEAUTIFUL LANDMARK. WHAT ELSE DID ROSALES HAVE TO SAY TO OUR COMMUNITY, TO THE COMMUNITY THAT HE HAS CHANGED SO MUCH? WELL, SYDNEY, HE HOPES THAT HIS STORY CAN SERVE AS AN INSPIRATION TO OTHERS IN OUR COMMUNITY, SAYING THAT IF HE HADNT MOVED TO THE UNITED STATES AND INSTEAD MOVED TO A DIFFERENT COUNTRY, THEN HIS CAREER WOULD HAVE MOST LIKELY NEVER HAVE HAPPENED.
