Bumping this up, but the Back-to-School episode of TPIR scheduled for yesterday was, according to G-R.net and GSNN, preempted for Hurricane Harvey coverage. The West Coast got a rerun.
No new air date has been scheduled.

Not exactly. It wasn't preempted in so much that it just wasn't aired. The Baby Shower special aired in its place in the East as well and based on the show's social media posting that it would air a 1/2 hour before showtime and posting the notable moment from that episode later in the day, it looks like they knew a bit in advance that BTS wasn't airing on Friday.
The speculation isn't so much that they're doing it because of Hurricane Harvey coverage, but moreso that they're doing it because of Hurricane Harvey itself and that perhaps the episode in question features a trip to one of the many affected areas in Texas, like Corpus Christi, Galveston, or Houston (my thought is Houston). I also think it's possible that a trip to Barcelona could've prompted Price to move the show following the terrorist attack there. I suppose all will be revealed in due time. The new season starts on the 18th, so they've got plenty of time to air it before then and even then it looks like there are very minor set changes. So, they could easily slip it in somewhere (after premiere week) soon enough for it to be considered back to school time.
