Some News For You To Look At
Alright, well, as the weekend comes to a close, time for a little news. First off, tourists are being told to leave the Florida Keys because of fears that Tropical Depression Eighteen might develop into a hurricane and is projected to pass near there. Right now, there is a hurricane watch in effect for the Florida Keys and parts of the Bahamas. To the east of Tropical Depression Eighteen, Tropical Storm Philippe became the 16th named storm of the season Saturday night. Philippe's three day forecast showed the storm heading to the northwest into the Atlantic. Federal investigators are if excess speed caused the commuter train derailment that killed two passengers and injured more than 80 others. The Metra train derailed Saturday at 47th Street and Wentworth Avenue right here in Chicago. Now for an update on the progress in the New Orleans. The death toll in Louisiana has risen to 646, according to the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, up from 579 Friday evening. Some business owners and residents were able to return to New Orleans, and the return was "smooth and succesful," Mayor Ray Nagin said in a Statement. Things are starting to move forward there, but there is still a long way to go. That's all the news for now. I'll talk to people later. See ya.
