A weather system heading toward the Gulf Coast now has a 90% chance of becoming a tropical storm, putting cities from Houston to Mobile, Alabama on alert and prompting oil rig evacuations in the Gulf of Mexico.The low-pressure system is now over the Florida panhandle, but is expected to travel into the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday, where it will meet warm, open waters that will fuel the storm's intensity, according to CNN meteorologist Haley Brink.There, it has a 90% chance of developing into a tropical storm over the next 48 hours, according to the National Hurricane Center. That is up from a 70% chance on Tuesday.It isn't clear yet exactly where the storm will hit, Brink said, but models show it making landfall somewhere between Lake Charles, Louisiana and Mobile sometime Saturday.It would be the first tropical system in the United States this hurricane season.A tropical storm is an area of thunderstorms that produces a circular wind flow with winds from 39 to 73 miles per hour. With a lower wind speed, it would be a tropical depression. Higher, and it would be a hurricane.Regardless of the classification this system develops into, Louisiana and Mississippi are forecast to see very heavy rain -- more than a foot in some places, Brink said.The Gulf Coast area is prepared for intense weather."Tropical Storm, Hurricane, and Storm Surge Watches could be required for a portion of the northern Gulf Coast on Wednesday. An Air Force Reserve Unit reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to investigate the disturbance tomorrow afternoon," the National Hurricane Service said.Oil production companies operating in the Gulf of Mexico have also started to enact precautions.Shell has evacuated all non-essential staff from eastern Gulf drilling rigs, with more action on the horizon depending on how the storm develops, spokeswoman Cindy Babski told CNN."Our top priorities are ensuring the safety of personnel, protecting the environment and minimizing impact to production and operations," Babski said.Chevron has also evacuated some non-essential employees from the Jack St. Malo facility, with shut-in procedures initiated at five other facilities, spokeswoman Veronica Flores-Paniagua told CNN.Potential storm surge has caused the National Weather Service to issue a flood warning for the Mississippi River, including New Orleans, through Saturday. The NWS said that the river could crest at 19 feet, or 2.3 feet below the record. The city is protected to a height of 20 feet.The Flood Protection Authority said it will be closing several flood gates and structures in the New Orleans area starting Wednesday morning. 2644

A wedding is supposed to be the most beautiful day in a couple's life. But for thousands of couples this year, it's become a nightmare, because they have to cancel their reception, and couples are finding they can't get a refund due to the contract they signed months ago with their reception venue.Kristina Finley's dream wedding was scheduled for May 30, until COVID-19 and her governor changed her plans.Despite a state shutdown of big events, her mother, Becky Finley, said her daughter can't get her money back from her venue."She asked for a refund, and they said actually my daughter owed them the second half of the payment," Finley said.The wedding venue still has their ,500 deposit, half the total cost of the ,000 wedding and reception, the family said.It offered new dates next year, but Finley's daughter does not want to wait, and instead she has selected a small church wedding and backyard party for the original date."My daughter picked May 30, 2020. All the invitations, the pre-engagement announcements, everything had that date on it," Finley said. "And she said, 'I've been waiting a year for this, and I'm not going to reschedule.'"Rules vary by venueWhen it comes to weddings and other events, every event center has different rules.Some will give brides and grooms a refund if there is no other option, owner Drew Hester said.Drew Hester, owner of one hall, said that unlike many other halls, he has given full refunds to several brides, and he took the financial hit. "I just believe in karma. I believe in good," he said. "The emotional loss for them has been awful. You work with these brides for a year, and now they are devastated. And on top off that I am not going to say, 'You lost ,500, sorry.'"But many wedding contracts do not allow refunds; only credits toward a future date.What you can doForbes Magazine said many brides and grooms are facing thousands of dollars in losses this year due to canceled weddings. It suggests people:Request a refund as soon as possible; do not wait for the date to approach.Ask if you can get a discount for a smaller gathering, if they are still open.If they refuse a refund or discount, dispute the charge through your credit card if you paid the deposit that way.File a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.If all else fails, contact a lawyer, who for a few hundred dollars can examine the contract and send a letter to the center explaining that since this is an "act of god," the contract should be null and void.Finley hopes to get something back, and said her daughter is just heartbroken having to cancel her dream reception."It's what every little girl dreams of, and it just fell apart," she said,One other option: Some reception centers have gardens where you can move everything outdoors, and where, if allowed by local laws, you can still have that dream wedding.________________________Don't Waste Your Money" is a registered trademark of Scripps Media, Inc.

Alabama sent the most restrictive abortion bill in the country to the governor's desk Tuesday night, with the state's Senate passing legislation that could punish doctors who perform abortions with life in prison.The state's Republican backers have pushed the legislation, which amounts to a near-total ban on abortion in the state, forward with the express goal of overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court case legalizing abortion. Alabama lawmakers join legislators in several other states in putting forth legislation to restrict abortion, such as Georgia's recent fetal heartbeat bill.After more than four hours of debate, the Republican-led Senate voted 25-6 to pass HB 314, which would slap doctors with up to 99 years in prison for performing an abortion. The Alabama House passed the bill earlier this month.The law only allows exceptions "to avoid a serious health risk to the unborn child's mother," for ectopic pregnancy and if the "unborn child has a lethal anomaly." Democrats re-introduced an amendment to exempt rape and incest victims, but the motion failed on an 11-21 vote.Republican Gov. Kay Ivey will have six days to sign the legislation, though the bill would not take effect until six months after becoming law. Ivey has not publicly taken a stance on the bill but has previously aligned herself as anti-abortion, 1351

A Michigan man went from healthy to brain dead in just nine days after contracting Eastern equine encephalitis, his brother said.Gregg McChesney, 64, was a "perfectly healthy, happy human being" less than two weeks before his August 19 death from the rare mosquito-borne virus, Mark McChesney told 310

A woman in a car was ramming a man on a motorcycle, chasing him down the streets of Chula Vista, California. A police drone flew after them, broadcasting a live video feed to officers' smartphones.All officers in the department had been out on other high-priority calls when they received the report of two people fighting -- so they deployed their newest emergency response tool. Thanks to the footage from the drone, when officers arrived on scene, they knew exactly where to find the woman and man, and what had happened moments beforehand.They arrested the woman for assault with a deadly weapon, but also found the man happened to be riding a stolen motorcycle. The theft was unrelated to the incident.This is how the Chula Vista Police Department has started using drones to respond to calls, as part of a Federal Aviation Administration program. While police departments have already used drones as part of investigations after a crime has occurred, this program sends a drone out ahead of officers while the crime may still be in progress; officers use that footage to decide how to approach the situation."It gives someone like myself, the Watch Commander, a front row seat to what's going on," said Lt. Christopher Kelly.In the six months the program has been active, drones have helped Chula Vista police make more than 56 arrests. For comparison, Chula Vista police made 6,027 arrests over the course of last year.Police say arrests are up since the drone program began in October compared to the same time period last year, but that it's too early to attribute the change to the drone program.Chula Vista Police Chief Roxana Kennedy said the drones had mostly been operating within a limited range of a mile radius around the station, while the whole city is 52 square miles. "That being said, the drone has effectively contributed to several arrests where it arrived on scene first and vectored officers to the suspect," she said.How the system worksDirected by an officer sitting in the basement of Chula Vista police headquarters, a drone launches from the rooftop.On the roof, another officer sets the geo-fence, a virtual geographic boundary set by GPS, to tell the drone where to go.The pilot on the roof can override the officer directing the drone from the basement if he sees an obstruction, like a flock of birds or manned aircraft, in the way.Federal law typically allows drones to only be flown within the operator's line of sight. The FAA's Integration Pilot Program is letting cities across the United States test flying drones longer and farther, for package delivery, agriculture operations, medical equipment delivery and public safety, among other uses. Along with the city of San Diego, the city of Chula Vista is focusing on the area of public safety operations.Using an off-the-shelf drone and software from a company called Cape, officers can direct the drone via computer from anywhere.Kennedy, the police chief, said the drone is not a replacement for police officers, but it is a tool to help improve the safety of both officers and citizens they're sworn to protect. "It's a game-changer for law enforcement," she said.While a 911 caller may be distraught and may give incomplete or inaccurate information, a drone can get there faster than a police car and zoom in for a closer look.Kennedy said that the zoom feature on the drone's camera allows officers to see a license plate from two miles away, and that kind of tool helps them make better informed decisions and plot a smarter strategy.She said she hopes it could help avoid deadly force incidents — giving officers a chance to assess a situation and to think about how to defuse it before rushing onto the scene."I think that this is so vital for us in law enforcement right now as we're under tremendous scrutiny," she said. The drones could give the officers "real-time information to determine whether somebody actually does have a weapon in their hand, is it not a weapon, is it a pencil, is it something different?"Privacy concerns"Just this morning we saw one come. Someone called about somebody in their yard, and the first thing we saw was the drone," said David Ward, who lives in the city.Some Chula Vista residents have questions about the drones overhead."It might help solve crimes. But I think drones are a little bit of a violation of privacy. Can they look in your window?" said Marie Paniagua.The police chief said the department has done a lot of work to get the community's buy-in."We have worked really hard to make sure that we have policies in place that we address those issues," Kennedy said. "We don't do random patrol with our drones. They're not utilized that way at all. They are not for surveillance. The only time a drone would be used for instance, a search warrant if it was approved through the judge and there was an actual search warrant."Ward said he wants to know whether citizens have a right to see the footage collected, "but I believe that they're doing it to protect people's safety," he said.Future of drone regulationKennedy said Chula Vista has the lowest staffed police department in San Diego County, with 242 sworn officers covering the 52-square-mile area.The eventual goal, she said, is to be able to at least get one drone over a scene within two minutes of a radio call, and to have the drones placed at police stations and fire stations around the city.Capt. Vern Sallee describes the project in three phases: crawl, walk, run."We're getting feedback from them (the FAA) as to what they need to have confidence in our systems, in our drones, to start changing the rules to better integrate drones into the national air space they control," Sallee said.And last month, Chula Vista police drones got clearance to fly farther.On March 15, the FAA granted Chula Vista PD the first-ever certificate of authorization with a "beyond visual line of sight" provision for an Integration Pilot Program participant that allows for proactive emergency response.That gives them a 40-mile flying radius, according to Cape -- and police say those longer drone flights have already started. 6135
