For months, Apple fans have been furiously speculating about what the company has in store for the big event Tuesday. Rumors have leaked out in dribs and drabs, often thanks to unnamed sources in Apple's supply chain or eagle-eyed developers poring through early iOS 11 builds. Over the weekend, a major leak - apparently from within Apple - may have spilled some (or even most) of the beans.

Woven into the background of all of these product rumors is, of course, the lingering question of whether Apple can ever repeat the innovation it displayed with the first iPhone after 10 years of evolution. Questions about Apple's ability to innovate have plagued the company since the death of co-founder Steve Jobs, and this provides a big opportunity for Apple to shake those doubts.

We'll be on-site in Cupertino, Calif., at Apple's new $5 billionheadquarters to bring you all the latest news. You can check back here at 12:30 p.m. for live updates. But, to tide you over until the lights go down, here's a rundown of what you can expect from today's event:
Three new iPhones
We're expecting three phones today: a basic iPhone, an iPhone Plus and a tenth-anniversary edition. According to the leak over the weekend, that will likely be an iPhone 8, an iPhone 8 Plus and an iPhone X.

That means Apple's skipping the iPhone 7s name altogether, which may be confusing to some but could indicate a cleaner break from the last generation of phones we've seen. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are expected to get serious speed upgrades and improvements to the camera software for pictures and Apple's augmented reality push.

All models may also get a wireless charging option, which would be a first for any iPhone.
The $1,000 iPhone X
Looking at the iPhone X specifically, analyst and Apple enthusiasts expect this tenth-anniversary iPhone to be completely redesigned. The key difference is likely to be an all-screen front, similar to what we've seen from Samsung's "Edge" phones. The iPhone X is also expected to have an OLED screen, which would be a first for the iPhone and could give it better battery life, more vivid colors and sharper resolution. But those screens don't come cheap, which is why analysts expect the iPhone X will have a base price around $1,000.

The screen change would also mean that there's no home button. Leaks have indicated that some of the traditional functions of the home button - such as summoning Siri - will move to the side-button.

But what about the fingerprint reader, which you can use to authenticate purchases from iTunes, the App Store and Apple Pay? Well, that takes us to our next expected feature ...
Facial recognition
The high-end iPhone, at least, is expected to incorporate advanced facial recognition technology, which can sense how far away something is from the camera. This creates, essentially, a 3-D selfie, which reports indicate is complete, complex and secure enough to use for financial transactions. (Facial recognition technology currently on competing phones, such as Samsung's, can sometimes be tricked by photos.)

A more independent Apple Watch and AirPods
The Apple Watch may also see a major upgrade that allows it to do more without being tethered to your phone for a cellular connection. Being able to connect to cellular networks on its own, even if it's just for Maps or fitness apps, could help Apple increase its appeal for people who don't always want to keep their wrist in range of their phone.

That could be particularly useful for Apple's core audience for the Watch: fitness buffs. The Watch could play music or podcasts, track health metrics and map out a run on its own.

Leaks over the weekend also suggest that Apple's wireless headphones, AirPods, may get an external battery indicator on their case. Right now, that light is on the inside of the case.
A 4K-ready Apple TV
Apple's making a big push into making its own shows and shoring up its position in the living room. A 4K-capable Apple TV set-top box would put it on par with competitors on a technical front, and also strengthen its already impressive media store. While 4K adoption has been slow to get started, analysts say it's starting to reach a tipping point - meaning that it's a good time for Apple to make sure it supports the ultrahigh definition standard.
Answers to lingering questions
While we think we have the highlights of what Apple's got on tap, there are some lingering but important questions. One very practical one, for example: is Apple going to improve the battery life on its iPhones?

Apple has also been plagued by rumors that the "iPhone X" will either be delayed or perhaps in short supply at launch because of its complexity. If Apple's unable to meet demand, it could mean a frustrating few months for Apple's most faithful customers.

A White House official said that the meeting was intended to be an informal discussion to help the Trump administration find a way to fulfill the president's pledge to reduce emissions without harming the American economy.

President Trump declared in June that the United States would abandon the Paris agreement, which binds nearly 200 nations to promises of curbing heat-trapping greenhouse gas emissions and helping vulnerable nations adapt to the ravages of extreme weather.

Mr. Trump asserted that the deal would hurt the domestic economy, and he continues to make that case. "In order to protect American industry and workers, we withdrew the United States from the job-killing Paris climate accord. Job killer. People have no idea. Many people have no idea how bad that was," the president told a crowd in Bismarck, N.D., last week.

But in a letter submitted to the United Nations on Aug. 4, the administration hinted it might stay in the pact. The administration "intends to exercise its right to withdraw from the agreement," the letter read, "unless the United States identifies suitable terms for re-engagement."

Under the rules of the Paris agreement, no country can formally withdraw until November 2020.

So far no one in the Trump administration has defined what such terms might be, and it is unclear if countries will get answers next week.

Susan Biniaz, who was a legal adviser at the State Department for more than three decades before retiring this year, said the Cohn meeting would be a chance for the Trump administration to explain its position as well as for major trading partners to seek some common ground on energy and climate issues.

"I would think of this breakfast as an opportunity for other countries to show they are willing to engage in a discussion at least on issues of interest to the United States, and the United States to be clearer about what it considers suitable terms," she said.

By the time Hurricane Irma slammed into Florida's southwest coast on Sunday, triggering one of the largest evacuation orders in American history, several Caribbean islands had already borne the brunt of the hurricane's devastation when it was a far deadlier and more powerful Category 5 storm.

Irma ripped through Saint Martin, St. Barts, Anguilla and Barbuda, as well as the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, killing dozens of people and leaving thousands more homeless.

Barbuda was particularly hard-hit by the storm, with an estimated 90 percent of its structures suffering damage or destruction. Prime Minister Gaston Browne said the island was " literally under water," making it "barely habitable" in Irma's wake. Half the population is now homeless, he told the BBC.

In Saint Martin, which is partially French and partially Dutch, Irma wrought " enormous devastation," according to Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte. Many island residents have been left without food and clean water as they struggle to rebuild.

Turks and Caicos, a British overseas territory southeast of the Bahamas, also endured widespread power outages and severe infrastructural damage from strong winds and floodwaters.

The following graphics offer a bird's-eye view of many of these islands, before and after they were ravaged by Hurricane Irma.
