Its labor day early today starts right now thanks for being up early with us on this holiday im frances rivera. And happy labor day if youre looking to soak up the last moments of summer, make sure youre wearing your sunscreen and staying hydrated record here is on the way. Nbc meteorologist Michelle Grossman is here now with a look at the holiday forecast. Hi, michelle. Hi, there guys. Great to see you thats a big story today because were looking at temperatures well above normal for this time of year. From 10 to 25 degrees above what is typical for this time of year well into the 90s. It could hit over 100 degrees in many spots were looking at northern heat from the plains and midwest. Its going to be warm and sunny too. In parts of the southeast you can see temperatures into the 80s and 90s. Also looking at a chance of holiday showers unfortunately in parts of the great basin, into the plains, the Lower Mississippi valley, taking moisture off the gulf. Were going see that into the gulf coast states as well. Well talk more about that also talking about the heat in just a few minutes all right lots to still cover. Thank you, michelle. In ukraine, russian Drones Attack ports along the danube river. That infrastructure is critical to ukraines grain exports at least two people were injured in the rare assault close to nato borders ukraine is a major supplier of grain to developing nations, and western leaders have accused Vladimir Putin of threatening global Food Security with his war in ukraine for the latest, we want to go live to meagan fitzgerald. Good morning what do we know about this recent attack . Good morning. Good to be with you. What we know according to ukrainian officials is a barrage of these drones were launched a the southern part of the country. They have delegated about 25 of these drones these were iranianstyle drones. They were able to shoot down 22. But as you mentioned, a drone struck a port in the danube river region in the south. This is incredibly important, because this is one of the main routes where these ukrainian ships loaded and packed with ukrainian grain and other food splice would make their way out of the black sea on to other developing nations in africa and asia, in the middle east and so what we have seen over the course of the last several weeks is that russia continues to attack these ports, which is incredibly critical that is why the ukrainian officials are saying that russia is trying to starve the world, trying to create a global food crisis and famine in many of these regions. Youll recall that in july russia pulled out of the grain deal that would make it possible for those boats to ship out of the black sea without any fear of being attacked that is not the case here. This comes on the backdrop of that very critical meeting thats going to be happening within the next couple of hours in sochi, russia between president putin and the president of turkey, erdogan, who helped broker that original grain deal with the help of the u. N. So of course the mission in this meeting is to try and convince russia to once again latch on to this deal so that these ships will be able to make their way out of the black sea safely. High stakes, big consequences when it comes out of that meeting. Meagan, thank you. Police got a new lead in the urgent search for a convicted murderer who escaped from a pennsylvania prison. They believe this doorbell video shows fugitive Danilo Cavalcante saturday morning it was taken in a heavily wooded area just west of philadelphia that is less than two miles from the prison where he escaped thursday we are requesting that residents in the area remain inside, lock your doors, lock your cars.

Nbcs Lindsey Reiser has more. Reporter across the country cities like new york are buckling under the pressure of incoming Asylum Seekers.
