NAVY SHIP COLLIDES WITH TANKER-ONCAM

THE U-S NAVY CONTINUES INVESTIGATING --

HOW A NAVY DESTROYER COLLIDED WITH A GIANT OIL TANKER.

IT HAPPENED SUNDAY IN A *STRATEGIC WATER-WAY --

WHERE MUCH OF THE WORLD'S OIL IS SHIPPED.

AND AS A-B-C'S MARTHA RADDATZ REPORTS --

NAVY SHIP COLLIDES WITH TANKER-PKG

It is a major embarrassment for the Navy. The USS Porter, a 2 billion

dollar guided missile destroyer left with a gaping hole in its right side,

after a violent collision with the Japanese tanker. We were on a destroyer

earlier this year in the Strait and saw then how difficult the transit can

be.

RADDATZ STANDUP FROM STRAIT The shipping lane itself is only about two miles

wide. So, there is

very little room to maneuver. that is the Carrier USS Abraham Lincoln behind

me

But the way the Porter maneuvered seems to break all the rules of

navigation. The Navy ship, was just exiting the Strait into the Persian Gulf

. The Japanese tanker, twice the size of the destroyer was entering the

Strait. Ship traffic is much like car traffic. Each vessel is supposed to

stay to the right. Instead, say officials, the USS Porter turned left into

the oncoming tanker. the Tanker turned right as it should to avoid the

ship, but it was too late

SOT: JUST INEXPLICABLE WHY A US WARSHIP WOULD TURN IN FRONT OF A LESS

MANEUVERABLE BIG SUPERTANKER/ THE INITIAL EVIDENCE IT'S HARD TO SEE HOW

THIS IS NOT THE USS PORTER'S FAULT

.

The ship's captain will almost certainly be relieved of command. He was on

FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE ABC7 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

"More sun, fewer showers Monday"

The cloudiness we've had around for the last couple days will start to fade today as more sunshine starts to break through.

We'll still notice more cloud cover than normal for this time of year, but we'll at least be treated to more sun compared to what we had over the weekend.

While rain chances will be dropping a little today, there's still enough moisture in place to produce some widely scattered showers. We'll notice a few isolated coastal showers this morning, and some of those downpours could build toward Highway 41 by the mid to late morning.

By the mid afternoon, the sea breeze should be able to push most of the showers and thunderstorms deeper inland, but a few storms may still impact the urban corridor through this evening.

With more sunshine in play today across Southwest Florida, temperatures will be a bit warmer with most locations warming to the low 90s during the heat of the day; locations close to the coast will likely only warm to the upper 80s.

Overall moisture will be decreasing a bit as we progress through the week, putting our rain chances close to or just below "normal" for this time of year. We'll also see a change in the timing of the rain, so instead of seeing showers develop earlier in the day, most of the rain and storms will fire up during the mid to late afternoon.

SCHOOL HEALTH CHECKLIST-PKG

AS STUDENTS RETURN TO SCHOOL FOR ANOTHER YEAR, THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY PHYSICIANS HAS PUT TOGETHER A CHECKLIST FOR PARENTS AND GUARDIANS TO HELP THEIR CHILDREN STAY HEALTHY. MOST OF THE TIPS ARE PRETTY SIMPLE.

MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD'S MEDICAL RECORDS ARE UPDATED AND AVAILABLE TO THE SCHOOL, ALONG WITH YOUR FULL CONTACT INFORMATION. THIS SHOULD INCLUDE INFORMATION ON ANY MEDICATION YOUR CHILD IS TAKING, AS WELL AS ANY ALLERGIES OR SPECIAL NEEDS, AND WHETHER THE SCHOOL HAS YOUR PERMISSION TO ADMINISTER CERTAIN DRUGS TO YOUR CHILD.

IF YOUR CHILD DOES HAVE ALLERGIES, MAKE SURE YOU AND THE SCHOOL NURSE HAVE AN ACTION PLAN TO TREAT YOUR CHILD AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, SHOULD THEY HAVE A REACTION.

DO A DRY RUN WITH YOUR CHILD ON THEIR ROUTE TO SCHOOL, LOOKING FOR POTENTIAL HAZARDS. IF YOUR CHILD WALKS TO SCHOOL, MAKE SURE HE OR SHE KNOWS HOW TO CROSS A STREET, KNOWS NOT TO TALK TO STRANGERS, AND WHAT TO DO IF THEY ARE APPROACHED BY SOMEONE THEY DON'T KNOW.

IF YOUR CHILD TAKES THE BUS, MAKE SURE HE OR SHE HAS A CONSISTENT PICK UP AND DROP OFF POINT THAT CAN CLEARLY BE SEEN BY ADULTS.

DEVELOP A FAMILY EMERGENCY PLAN IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS. MAKE SURE YOU CHILD HAS ALL NECESSARY CONTACT INFORMATION AND KNOWS HOW TO USE 911.

SOME FAMOUS FACES WILL ONCE AGAIN HIT THE DANCE FLOOR.

FOR ANOTHER SEASON OF DANCING WITH THE STARS!

WE KNOW WHO THIS YEAR'S ALL-STAR CASTS CONSISTS OF-

NAMES LIKE KIRSTIE ALLEY, GILLES MARINI, KELLY MONOCO AND BRISTOL PALIN-

BUT WHO WILL THE ALL-STARS BE PAIRED WITH?

DWTS: PARTNERS REVEALED-PKG

Its the BURNING QUESTION:

Will the pro dancers REUNITE?

Or COMPETE?

.against STARS they

once TAUGHT.

Cheryl Burke trained

Emmitt Smith and

Drew Lachey to WIN,

and BARELY lost with

Gilles Marini.

What if NONE of them

are assigned to Cheryl,

THIS time?

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

GILLES MARINI:

"Its not her fault she's not dancing with me.

It would become a COMPETITION."

----------------------------------

------------------------------------

KELLY MONACO:

"I would not want to be with someone

that I wasn't comfortable with."

------------------------------------

Bristol Palin worries that

she'll need a teacher like

Mark Ballas.

-------------------------------------

BRISTOL PALIN:

"Just take me under

their wing; show me the dance steps

just like Mark did - someone who I'm

comfortable with. Definitely."

---------------------------------------

But Melissa Rycroft suspects

the show's producers

don't necessarily CARE about

COMFORT.

-----------------------------------------

MELISSA RYCROFT:

" 'You guys get along too well.

I can't have this on MY show.' "

------------------------------------------

Will Apolo Ohono and Helio Castroneves

need a CHAMPION - like

Julianne Hough - to win, again?

-------------------------------------

HELIO CASTRONEVES:

"It helps, because they know what it

takes to win."

PAMELA ANDERSON:

"It's just gonna be, I think,

exciting and surprising

for everybody."

Maybe NO SURPRISE for

Kirstie Alley - tweeting that

its TOUGH keeping SECRETS!

FORECAST-WX WALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE ABC7 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

"More sun, fewer showers Monday"

The cloudiness we've had around for the last couple days will start to fade today as more sunshine starts to break through.

We'll still notice more cloud cover than normal for this time of year, but we'll at least be treated to more sun compared to what we had over the weekend.

While rain chances will be dropping a little today, there's still enough moisture in place to produce some widely scattered showers. We'll notice a few isolated coastal showers this morning, and some of those downpours could build toward Highway 41 by the mid to late morning.

By the mid afternoon, the sea breeze should be able to push most of the showers and thunderstorms deeper inland, but a few storms may still impact the urban corridor through this evening.

With more sunshine in play today across Southwest Florida, temperatures will be a bit warmer with most locations warming to the low 90s during the heat of the day; locations close to the coast will likely only warm to the upper 80s.

Overall moisture will be decreasing a bit as we progress through the week, putting our rain chances close to or just below "normal" for this time of year. We'll also see a change in the timing of the rain, so instead of seeing showers develop earlier in the day, most of the rain and storms will fire up during the mid to late afternoon.
