The cooler air of the late summer is about to enter New York State. However, there are reports that remnants of Hurricane Hillary will impact The Empire State.

California, Nevada and Arizona are dealing with the threat for floods and, to make matters worse, California is dealing with the after shocks of a 5.1 magnitude earthquake.

Here in Western New York, the humidity levels have come down and the cooler air is here. Enjoy the next few days of sunshine and dry weather before the rains arrive.

We are only a few days left before most kids head back to school. But not before some strange things have been reported around New York State.

There are plenty of things that you see on that morning or evening walk that make you wonder. "what's up with that"? But have you ever seen someone taking a slow stroll with a marsupial?

There are reports that New York police responded to a call about a person walking a wallaby!

Wallabies are illegal to own in most states including New York. The animal was taken to the Animal Care Center of New York City, while its owner received a summons for possession of a wild marsupial.

Officials say the animal is safe in protective care.
