News Wrap: Tropical Storm Fay drenches the Mid-Atlantic

Season 2020 Episode 205 | 3m 51s

In our news wrap Friday, Tropical Storm Fay is racing up the Eastern Seaboard. It made landfall earlier near Atlantic City, New Jersey, with winds of 60 miles per hour, touching off flash floods and forcing beaches to close. Also, a court in Turkey is allowing officials to convert the world heritage site Hagia Sophia in Istanbul back to a mosque. It has been a museum since 1934.
