    North Carolina ranks high in competitive eating

    6:00 HERE ON YOUR WEDNESDAY. THANK YOU. SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. I’M JACKIE PASCALE GOOD MORNING. I’M AUDREY AUDREY BIESK. WELCOME IN TO WEDNESDAY. WRAPPING UP THE MONTH OF AUGUST. SEEMS LIKE VERY QUICKLY THAT WE’RE THAT WE’RE GOING THROUGH THE MONTH AND OUR FORECAST IS KIND OF TRANSPORTING US TO FALL. YEAH, ALMOST LIKE A MONTH LATER. YEAH. IT IS. IT’S REALLY MORE LIKE LATE SEPTEMBER. YOU GUYS ARE RIGHT. IT FEELS LIKE FALL OUTSIDE. WE’LL CALL IT FAKE FALL BECAUSE IT’S NOT REALLY GOING TO BE STICKING AROUND FOREVER. WE’VE STILL GOT A LITTLE BIT MORE SUMMERTIME TO GO, BUT FOR NOW WE’RE KIND OF TRANSPORTED AND WE’VE TIME TRAVELED INTO LATE SEPTEMBER. IT IS COOL OUTSIDE THIS MORNING. THAT COOL FALL AIR IS HERE AND IT SETTLED IN 57. IN HIGH POINT RIGHT NOW, 59 FOR GREENSBORO AND 58 IN WINSTON-SALEM. THOSE ARE SOME OF THE WARMER TEMPERATURES WE HAVE OUTSIDE OF THE TRIAD CITIES. IT’S EVEN A LITTLE COOLER. 55 IN REIDSVILLE AND DANBURY IN STOKES COUNTY, THE MOUNTAINS EVEN COOLER THAN THAT. CHECK IT OUT. 48 IN SPARTA, 49 IN BOONE, 51 IN JEFFERSON. RIGHT NOW. SO IT IS A COOL MORNING. THE AIR IS VERY DRY, BASICALLY. NO HUMIDITY TO BE SEEN ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. IT’S FEELING LIKE FALL OUT THERE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. MAYBE YOU’RE HEADING OUT TO THE BUS STOP OR SENDING THE KIDS OUT TO THE BUS STOP ACROSS OUR THREE ZONES, ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. MAYBE CONSIDER SENDING THEM WITH A LIGHT JACKET OR A HOODIE. IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE CHILLY UP THERE IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. LIGHT JACKET WEATHER FOR THE MOUNTAINS 49 THIS MORNING. OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS AT THE BUS STOP. MID 50S FOR THE FOOTHILLS AND UPPER 50S FOR THE PIEDMONT TRIAD. SO IT IS A COOL START TO THE DAY. THE GOOD NEWS IS WE’VE GOT SUNSHINE AND IT IS GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL DAY AHEAD. IF YOU LIKED YESTERDAY, TODAY WILL BE EVEN BETTER FOR MY FRIENDS WHO ARE A BIG FAN OF THE FALL SEASON. MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES TODAY. VERY COMFORTABLE THIS AFTERNOON. MID 70S FOR HIGHS WHICH IS ABOUT TEN DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE. OF COURSE AS YOU KNOW IT WON’T LAST FOREVER. THE WARM AIR WILL BE RETURNING. I’LL HAVE A LOOK AT JUST HOW LOW OUR TEMPERATURES DIP BEFORE THEY START TO CLIMB BACK UP AGAIN. COMING UP. WE’LL SEE YOU THEN. THANK YOU. 603 NOW TAKING A LIVE LOOK INSIDE THE UNITED CENTER IN CHICAGO, WHERE IT IS NOW, DAY THREE OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, MAKING THE CASE FOR KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ, AN ARRAY OF ADVOCATES RANGING FROM THE OBAMAS TO FORMER TRUMP SUPPORTERS, TOOK THE STAGE URGING VOTERS TO FIND HOPE IN. IN HARRIS, FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA AND FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA DISCUSSING WHAT’S AT STAKE IN THE 2024 ELECTION AS THE RE-ENERGIZED DEMOCRATIC TICKET SEEKS TO DEFEAT FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, ADDING THAT HARRIS IS READY TO LEAD THE COUNTRY INTO A NEW CHAPTER, TURNING THE PAGE ON FEAR AND DIVISION TOGETHER, KAMALA AND TIM HAVE KEPT FAITH WITH AMERICA’S CENTRAL STORY, A STORY THAT SAYS WE ARE ALL CREATED EQUAL. ALL OF US ENDOWED WITH CERTAIN INALIENABLE RIGHTS THAT EVERYONE DESERVES A CHANCE. THAT EVEN WHEN WE DON’T AGREE WITH EACH OTHER, WE CAN FIND A WAY TO LIVE WITH EACH OTHER. THAT’S KAMALA’S VISION. THAT’S TIM’S VISION. THAT’S THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY’S VISION. THE OBAMAS PLEDGED TO CONTINUE THEIR EFFORTS TO HELP HARRIS IN THE FINAL STRETCH OF HER PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. ON DAY THREE OF THE DNC, THE NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT WILL SHINE ON MINNESOTA GOVERNOR AND VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE TIM WALZ. AMY LU IS IN CHICAGO WITH A PREVIEW OF HIS KEYNOTE SPEECH TONIGHT. JACKIE AND AUDREY WALZ WILL INTRODUCE HIMSELF TO THE COUNTRY, BOOSTING HIS NAME RECOGNITION WHILE PROVING WHY HE IS BEST FIT FOR SECOND IN COMMAND. THANK YOU MILWAUKEE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL LAST NIGHT AND THE DNC STAGE TONIGHT, MINNESOTA GOVERNOR AND VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE TIM WALZ IS ON A MISSION TO MAKE A NAME FOR HIMSELF. WALZ IS A DARLING OF THE IMMEDIATE DARLING OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. AMONG THOSE WHO HAVE SEEN HIM RISE TO PROMINENCE RECENTLY, BUT MOST OF THE COUNTRY DOESN’T KNOW WHO HE IS. BUT WALZ MUST STRIKE A BALANCE, LEVERAGING HIS RISING POLITICAL STARDOM. HE CAN SPEAK DOWN TO EARTH AND NOT THAT BIG A DIFFERENT WAY THAN JD VANCE CAN DO ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE. AND BROADENING THE APPEAL OF THE TICKET. DON’T KNOW IF IT’S ENOUGH TO CHANGE PEOPLE’S MINDS, BUT IT’S ENOUGH TO AT LEAST CONVINCE PEOPLE WHO ARE SKEPTICAL THAT DEMOCRATS AREN’T ALL ELITISTS. BUT POLITICAL ANALYSTS SAY THAT VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEES HAVE LITTLE TO NO INFLUENCE ON ELECTION DAY. THEIR MAIN JOB IS TO HELP BOOST THE TICKET, NOT HURT IT. AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION IN CHICAGO. I’M AMY LOU, WXII 12 NEWS. DEMOCRATS WOULD CALL IT GOOD NEWS COMING OUT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA CENTER FOR POLITICS. WHEN IT COMES TO THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE. NORTH CAROLINA IS MOVING FROM LEANS REPUBLICAN TO TOSS UP IN THE LATEST ELECTORAL COLLEGE RATINGS. THE NEW NUMBERS SHOW KAMALA HARRIS POLLING SLIGHTLY BETTER IN NORTH CAROLINA THAN IN GEORGIA, WHICH IS ANOTHER BATTLEGROUND STATE. AND I THINK WHAT THAT SPEAKS TO IS WHAT WE’VE ALL BEEN WITNESSING OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST MONTH, RIGHT, WHICH IS THE GROUNDSWELL OF ENTHUSIASM THAT WE’VE SEEN FOR THE HARRIS WALLACE TICKET SINCE THE VICE PRESIDENT TOOK OVER AT THE TOP OF THE TICKET, SINCE SHE NAMED GOVERNOR WALZ AS HER RUNNING MATE AND THEY’VE BEGUN CRISSCROSSING THE COUNTRY. THE SPOKESMAN FOR THE HARRIS WALLACE CAMPAIGN TELLS US THEY HAVE OPENE
