USA basketball had a successful Olympic run, as both the men’s and women’s teams have won gold. Team USA took on France (like the men’s matchup), and USA beat them 67-66. This game came down to the wire, and Gabby Williams, who spent some time in the WNBA, made a shot for France towards the end. However, her foot was on the 3-point line. If her shot was a 3-pointer, that would have tied the game and could have forced overtime. Her foot was on the line, and counted for two. It was reminiscent of a shot by Kevin Drant in the NBA playoffs. In 2021, Durant hit a shot that would have been a game winner, but his foot was on the line. The Brooklyn Nets, who Durant played for at the time nearly had the win, but the Milwaukee Bucks came away with it in overtime.

Good afternoon everyone. We continue to have beautiful conditions in the Northeast courtesy of strong high pressure keeping a stationary front well to our south. That front will eventually make it back as a warm front, then a sweeping cold front will help protect the Northeast and East Coast as a whole from what-will-be Hurricane Ernesto.
