Question: for people who are calling in to


Question: volunteer the reality is that we really


Question: have we have a lot of all of our


Question: outages are widespread as you'll talk more about but this radar says it all


Question: all of that green and yellow and red


Question: that's out there well that is all the


Question: front half of the storm the back half


Question: there's barely any rain there is however


Question: quite a bit of wind so as far as the


Question: flooding concern goes river levels are


Question: going to continue to go up even as the


Question: rain tapers off but what we're seeing as


Question: far as storm surge is a different story


Question: and earlier we were right down by the


Question: boardwalk here in Halifax the waves


Question: crashing up during high tide in fact


Question: they were crashing right through


Question: underneath the boardwalk and that caused


Question: some damage up and down and of course


Question: beach erosion is a big concern once you


Question: get out into the open Atlantic in those


Question: shores and we have now some of the boys


Question: that are reporting waves in the 8 to 12


Question: meter range and that is incredible stuff


Question: the backside that's what we have left to


Question: get through already the winds are a lot


Question: lighter here sera than they were just a


Question: couple of hours ago so what's left of


Question: the eye well that's what's moving


Question: through Halifax now that's going to


Question: allow some emergency crews to get out


Question: there but don't do too much outside


Question: because I am telling you that we're


Question: gonna see some hundred plus kilometer


Question: per hour gusts on the back


Question: this time though the wind coming in from


Question: the west and northwest and that's gonna


Question: bring more trees down and unfortunately


Question: it's gonna be a long night so still a


Question: lot to get through but the glimmer of


Question: hope is that right now we're seeing dory


Question: in a post-tropical hurricane if that


Question: makes any sense it's basically losing


Question: its tropical characteristics but we are


Question: going to see as it comes to shore


Question: finally conditions improving later


Question: tonight Sarah all right thank you so


Question: much for this anthony anthony Farnell


Question: will be back with us later in the show


Question: with more and meteorologist ross hall


Question: will have your full forecast coming up


Question: in a few minutes


Question: well as this storm continues to


Question: intensify the federal government is


Question: already pledging health with the


Question: recovery


Question: Minister of Public Safety and emergency


Question: preparedness Ralph Goodale says Nova


Question: Scotia has asked for help and the


Question: military is being mobilized to deploy to


Question: the province but as Jesse Thomas tells


Question: us it's likely the cleanup won't begin


Question: in earnest until tomorrow heavy wind


Question: gusts and torrential rain hammered


Question: halifax early Saturday afternoon as the


Question: storm intensified


Question: uprooted and broken trees littered streets across the peninsula damaging


Question: from us and fortunately they were able to get meals delivered to them so that


Question: we could reach out to the community and


Question: make sure the people that were stranded


Question: were fed a lot of people are at shelters


Question: in our little two or three mile radius


Question: that we could get to in one day and


Question: there are just shelters all over the


Question: city filled with people which is the


Question: most devastating feeling but it's also a


Question: really wonderful feeling because every


Question: shelter in the Greater Houston area is


Question: filled with food there are lines


Question: wrapping around buildings with


Question: volunteers wanting to get in and help so


Question: it's been a great experience for the


Question: city to come together how many meals are


Question: you trying to provide a day our school


Question: has 250 there are three campuses total


Question: in the Greater Houston area that are


Question: able to do this and is there a note


Question: you've you've talked about the shelter's


Question: being inundated with volunteers with


Question: food where's the food coming from did


Question: you all prepare by stockpiling know


Question: there's a catering company that was able


Question: to get to us and deliver that they it's


Question: been difficult for roads to be clear but


Question: we're fortunate to have that and in


Question: terms of your students I mean


Question: normally you'd be thinking in terms of


Question: back to school after Labor Day and I


Question: guess all normal timetables are all fine


Question: they they are we actually started school


Question: on August 23rd so there are some


Question: students that have only had for a couple


Question: of days but the neat thing is that we've


Question: all reached out to each other and try to


Question: stay in contact our school has been


Question: trying very hard to get a hold of all of


Question: our students to make sure that they're


Question: okay there are lots of students that we


Question: can't get ahold of yet and they're also


Question: a lot of students that we know now are


Question: safe and there are a couple of students


Question: that we know that their houses were


Question: underwater but they are safe and they


Question: are being taken care of right now you


Question: were talking about the way that people


Question: have come together I mean do you feel


Question: that awful as this is has been people


Question: have got to know each other more because


Question: of it and and you've talked about them


Question: reaching out absolutely neighbors know


Question: each other better now we spent quite a


Question: bit of time at some shelters in the area


Question: that were local high schools turned into


Question: community centers and people coming


Question: together and acquaintances become family


Question: if that makes sense it does and Amanda


Question: thanks for telling us about both your


Question: services and basically we had a command center there which was a Christchurch


Question: where we our jobs were delegated out


Question: from our members and we helped


Question: distribute food necessary items just


Question: thinking about people's well-being and


Question: when once we were there we didn't we


Question: knocked on members doors asking that if


Question: we can help in anything they openly


Question: invite us in we help to move furnitures


Question: around basically stuff that the flood


Question: affected their own homes the garden the


Question: streets public pathways there was lot of


Question: debris obviously with the mud and slush


Question: that was hitting the areas there and


Question: that's what we were helping out with you


Question: were mainly based in the caca mouth area


Question: weren't you what kind of conditions did


Question: you find when you arrived there missing


Question: when we went there we didn't know what


Question: we were expecting the low level of water


Question: there it was always dried up but it was


Question: the devastating act after the floods the


Question: more dissolution or other debris even


Question: the stench as well there was fear that


Question: there and fortunately these people in


Question: their own homes


Question: you know have been effective never


Question: things are never the same again and


Question: basic we would to show that with a smile


Question: we're here to help and we're here to


Question: serve that must have been very welcome


Question: what kind of reaction response did you


Question: get from the people the the look of the


Question: local community and the local members


Question: the local residents there the elderly


Question: people the youngsters who there as well


Question: they're all happy that that people have


Question: come all the way we had members from all


Question: the way down south as far as London


Question: all we know from Scotland and they are


Question: traveling the only onyx expense and they


Question: travel all this way to just offer their


Question: services and help and finally do you


Question: intend to go back is there more work


Question: that yes we are we are going again I'm


Question: personally gonna go on Saturday again


Question: but we have people going daily so that


Question: was a team today this morning that went


Question: they're also helping now we'll be


Question: getting these pictures and stuff like


Question: that from them so a lot of lot of works


Question: that get to be done and like I say we


Question: don't want to spoil that Christmas is so


Question: close to there now so we're at a great


Question: difference the team we've got to leave


Question: there thanks so much for coming you see


Question: it thank you very much


Question: affected as well as livestock and crucially crops the biggest loss has


Question: been the crops as soon as farmers begin


Question: sewing irrigating the land with electric


Question: pumps and all then the rain began the


Question: rainfall has also been extreme 70 to 72


Question: hours of continuous rain the water level


Question: kept increasing and slowly submerged the


Question: farmlands nearly all of the crops have


Question: been destroyed climate change means more


Question: extreme weather and many a concern about


Question: how that's affecting our food systems


Question: this monsoon and a ruined harvest will


Question: be felt well beyond the end of the rainy


Question: season


Question: it's burgundy w's nimisha jaiswal who is


Question: standing by in Delhi for us so Nimisha


Question: as we've heard there a million people


Question: displaced what are the authorities doing


Question: to help


Question: well Sarah the authorities have deployed an immense effort because this is an


Question: annual occurrence I mean of course it's


Question: been worse in some parts of Nepal then


Question: it has been in the past but for example


Question: in India the National Disaster Response


Question: Force is one of the biggest disaster


Question: management forces in the world and they


Question: have done an incredible job just earlier


Question: this year there was a massive cyclone


Question: cyclone funny and loss of life was


Question: severe it was was controlled and managed


Question: and even though any the disaster was


Question: managed well so even this time there


Question: have been security forces deployed in


Question: India as flood affected areas in Nepal


Question: as well but there are also massive


Question: challenges they have set up 24/7 health


Question: lines but communication towers have


Question: fallen in Nepal highways have been


Question: blocked so it's also hard for security


Question: forces to deploy these efforts


Question: helicopters on her faces to land so


Question: there's actually a hope that waters will


Question: recede once the rains start easing off


Question: and they would be able to deploy more of


Question: an effort for rescue and recuperation


Question: now we know that flooding it happens


Question: every year in this part of the world how


Question: would you compare this year to previous


Question: years but like I said Sara this year in


Question: Nepal there have been reports the


Question: flooding has been worse in some parts


Question: however all over this particular region


Question: floods are an annual affair and the


Question: challenges in these regions are way


Question: different from built upon areas in India


Question: such as flooding in Mumbai or the city


Question: of Chennai earlier now in these areas


Question: they're more mountainous areas and the


Question: but i give it time it was kind of like this with hurricane michael it took 24


Question: to 48 hours to find the worst impacted


Question: communities


Question: because they were so cut off all right


Question: well we're certainly hoping that that


Question: doesn't happen that this isn't the case


Question: but incredible to see


Question: these high wind speeds so far inland


Question: even now greg thank you


Question: and texas governor greg abbott says no


Question: deaths have been reported directly


Question: related to the storm in texas so far and


Question: he's crediting evacuations for that


Question: as many as 10 000 people left their


Question: homes in texas ahead of the storm


Question: and will now have to wait and see if


Question: their homes are still intact marla


Question: carter from our houston station joins us


Question: now from orange texas


Question: marla what's the extent of the damage


Question: where you are


Question: well it's pretty bad diane i can tell you that and just to give you an idea


Question: we're right along the texas louisiana


Question: border that's where


Question: orange texas is and take a look what


Question: we're seeing here you see power lines


Question: down you see


Question: this car detailing a building completely


Question: torn apart we're told this is a family


Question: owned business that has been here


Question: for decades and certainly widespread


Question: devastation in this area


Question: and just to give you an idea how far we


Question: are from the eye of the storm about 35


Question: miles away so


Question: you talk about the magnitude of those


Question: winds and the power


Question: of hurricane laura and this is a result


Question: of that we're 35 miles from the eye and


Question: you just see structures


Question: toppled and of course that is a big


Question: concern and that is one of the reasons


Question: those mandatory evacuations


Question: were issued here in parts of texas now


Question: in addition to this


Question: as i mentioned the power lines down we


Question: have a lot of people without


Question: power over six hundred thousand people


Question: are without power right now


Question: a majority of those are in louisiana


Question: meanwhile


Question: a number of search and rescue crews are


Question: out assisting in any way that they can


Question: not just in this area but over in the


Question: louisiana area as well but


Question: if you again if you look at the


Question: devastation here in orange


Question: this is it's a huge storm and this is


Question: what they're very concerned about now


Question: the governor of texas is set to have


Question: a news conference here in orange uh


Question: later this afternoon to really give us


Question: an update


Question: um but we know that this is significant


Question: we know a lot of people are without


Question: power and that's why


Question: um as you mentioned it's so good that so


Question: many people evacuated not here but


Question: not just here but all the way uh to our


Question: west in


Question: galveston bay because that was another


Question: area of great concern and some of those


Question: residents are now being allowed


Question: to go back home because it didn't hit


Question: there but certainly glad


Question: so many people heeded those warnings


Question: evacuated because


Question: just look at this if this structure fell


Question: just imagine all the other homes and all


Question: the magnitude


Question: of this storm is certainly absolutely


Question: devastating out here in orange diane


Question: yeah that's for sure marla thank you for


Question: to 120 miles per hour ceilings came apart bases destroyed


Question: deck chairs tossed in a pile panic


Question: passengers crowded the stairs trying to


Question: get back to their rooms


Question: once inside filming what was happening


Question: in their cabins it was all captured in


Question: these dramatic videos recorded by


Question: passengers jacob i Bregg watched as the


Question: waves crashed against his window we all


Question: thought we were going to die we all


Question: thought that this was going to be it he


Question: prepared for the worst this felt like it


Question: was a disaster movie one of those I


Question: don't know towering inferno but this was


Question: this was even crazier I was living in


Question: this Hollywood movie it's probably guest


Question: scare that I've had so far in my life we


Question: talked to Shara strand via Skype she was


Question: so afraid she called her mother just in


Question: case she didn't survive this wants to


Question: call and say that I loved her the


Question: harrowing ordeal played out on social


Question: media some passengers reporting the ship


Question: listing at 45 degrees trapped in our


Question: rooms calendar but now a lot of that


Question: fear is turning to anger Peter a lupus


Question: says he's furious that they even set


Question: sail with the storm just off the coast


Question: he says the boat was listing so much his third deck cabin was underwater poor dog


Question: was like a washing machine literally you


Question: know we were we were under water on the


Question: third deck but the anthem of the Seas


Question: captain says he didn't realize the


Question: magnitude of the storm ahead of time and


Question: he's now defending his decision to set


Question: sail with a storm brewing in the


Question: Atlantic the whole thing was not bigger


Question: than this in a video broadcast


Question: internally to all 45 hundred passengers


Question: staterooms Monday captain Kloss Andersen


Question: who ordered everyone on board the ship


Question: to stay in their rooms says he's never


Question: experienced anything like it


Question: honestly I have not seen low pressure


Question: and that was not forecasted


Question: and anything near what we actually


Question: experienced tonight the company


Question: apologized to its passengers Royal


Question: Caribbean releasing a statement saying


Question: our ship and our crew performed very


Question: well to keep everyone safe during severe


Question: weather despite that fact the event


Question: exceptional as it was identified gaps in


Question: our planning system that we're


Question: addressing what happened this week

Question: terrifying ordeal aboard the anthem of

Question: a record-breaking bitter onslaught of snow Oswego County New York now under a

Question: now are coming from Pune where at least


Question: in the these areas where these pictures


Question: have been taken floodwaters have come


Question: down they have receded but look at the


Question: sort the trail of destruction that they


Question: have left behind some dramatic pictures


Question: coming in from flood hit Cooney radical


Question: people to get inside and and to of course respect the barricades respect


Question: the messaging that is extremely


Question: important also saying you know right now


Question: in this stage of the game any


Question: information any concerns calling three


Question: one one that is the number to call right


Question: now they are tracking all of that


Question: information and will be you know


Question: gathering all of that information as the


Question: wind picks up it's important to know the


Question: bridges will be closed so the Mackay


Question: bridge we understand is going to be


Question: closed to high sighted vehicles we're


Question: talking about trucks here and that being


Question: of course if the winds are reaching up


Question: to 80 kilometers an hour they are asking


Question: people to self evacuate they're also


Question: talking about now closing the roads to


Question: Peggy's Cove and Lawrence towns so


Question: that's another area there but they're


Question: asking people of course to get out of


Question: those areas to self evacuate again


Question: manual crews now will only be out on the


Question: roads and will only go out to remove


Question: debris if it is safe to do so as they're


Question: continuing to track the storm and of


Question: course reminding people to stay indoors


Question: but also remove any moving items loose


Question: items chairs basketball nets any kind of


Question: lumber anything out there because that


Question: can pose a direct risk to anybody that


Question: might be out there - any items it could


Question: cause more power outages etcetera so


Question: there certainly is we can hear very very


Question: well prepared on this but they are


Question: really urging residents to heat that


Question: messaging and to take all of that very


Question: very seriously I'm gonna bring in now


Question: CTB's Vanessa Lee she is in Sydney Nova


Question: Scotia helping us with all of our


Question: coverage tracking this Vanessa talked to


Question: us about the situation in Sydney right


Question: now


Question: plan G rain is just starting to fall here in Sydney and the winds are


Question: starting to pick up as well the height


Question: of the storm has not even hit yet across


Question: Nova Scotia and already more than 40,000


Question: Nova Scotians are without power so that


Question: perhaps gives us a sense of just how


Question: intense this storm is expected to be


Question: here in Sydney the winds are expected to


Question: pick up starting at 9:00 o'clock tonight


Question: winds are expected to gust up to 150


Question: kilometres an hour waves along the coast


Question: could reach as high as seven meters and


Question: so emergency officials really are trying


Question: to tell everyone to stay put to stay


Question: home if possible to stay off the roads


Question: they're really wanting to reiterate to


Question: people to pick up everything that is


Question: loose on their properties anything such


Question: as ladders or even debris because that


Question: is it's going to it's going to go flying


Question: it's going to be very dangerous once the


Question: winds pick up here we are along the


Question: Sydney Harbor front right now and we see


Question: that people are still out and about but


Question: team is covering it all and we start with ABC's Ron Claiborne here in


Question: hard-hit New York tonight the nation's


Question: largest city in the bullseye of a


Question: blizzard of epic proportions howling


Question: winds and driving snow creating near


Question: whiteout conditions forcing an


Question: extraordinary travel ban unless it is


Question: truly an emergency you should not be on


Question: the road Travel is now banned and the


Question: reason we're doing that is to protect


Question: people the snow still coming down strong


Question: tonight exceeding expectations on track


Question: to become one of the top five snowstorms


Question: on record here in New York City and no


Question: let-up expected for hours one of the


Question: worst blizzards winter storms that I've


Question: seen here in New York oh yeah


Question: it's no fun no fun at all it's not a


Question: winter wonderland


Question: many roads eerily empty in the middle of


Question: the day also ordered shut down commuter


Question: rail lines and parts of the subway


Question: New York City's transportation lifeline


Question: no flights coming in or going out of New


Question: York's three major airports and across


Question: the storm affected swath of the East


Question: Coast more than 10,000 cancellations


Question: spanning Friday through Sunday even


Question: Broadway shows shuttered meteorologist


Question: Indra


Question: Peterson's out in the thick of it if New


Question: York City gets more than 21 inches of


Question: snow this will be the third greatest


Question: snowfall on record but forget what two


Question: feet of snow looks like it's a blizzard


Question: out here you really have not winds


Question: producing snow dress even as high as


Question: five feet to battle the snow the city


Question: called out an army of snow plows and


Question: salt spreaders no match for this monster


Question: storm and Tom I'm in normally bustling


Question: Times Square very few vehicles out here


Question: only a fraction of the number of people


Question: who would normally be out here on a


Question: Saturday night you know so far this


Question: entire season until this storm New York


Question: City had only gotten a trace amount of


Question: snow now in less than 24 hours the city


Question: has gotten an entire winter's worth Tom


Question: the crossroads of the world now a winter


Question: wonderland all right Ron thank you


Question: gradient from the airmass that we're down in the single digits yesterday the


Question: ocean waters are in the 70s so that


Question: contrast there is fueling this storm as


Question: it develops and moves off to the north


Question: and east looks beautiful on satellite


Question: imagery here that classic comma head


Question: pulling that moisture trailing off of


Question: the ocean up and over the landmass


Question: they're bringing heavy heavy bands of


Question: snow that continue this morning here's


Question: how it looks on Southside up through


Question: downtown Norfolk what's right it's about


Question: same rain it's snowing heavily up


Question: through the Williamsburg area just got a


Question: report from Terry in Williamsburg saying


Question: that they have six inches on the ground


Question: right now down along the Eastern Shore X


Question: more area down through 13 waiting for a


Question: few reports there had one up in Accomack


Question: nearly seven inches so far and down


Question: south side over in the Virginia Beach


Question: and Chesapeake picked up nearly eight to


Question: nine inches there already and more so of


Question: the case down through northeastern North


Question: Carolina even snowing in areas that


Question: rarely see it right on the beach through


Question: the Outer Banks


Question: so blizzard warnings remain in effect in


Question: all the areas in orange here winter


Question: storm warnings farther inland the


Question: blizzard warnings are for the


Question: combination of strong winds and of


Question: reduced visibilities thanks to that


Question: heavy snow and we're certainly seeing


Question: those winds 46 in Melva 40 in Chesapeake


Question: you heard Lucia and Cristina say that we


Question: have over 30,000 people now in the dark


Question: and that number continues to grow from


Question: those strong winds 51 miles per hour


Question: Elizabeth City and 62 in duck if


Question: you can't venture outside and give us


Question: some snowfall accumulations you sure


Question: certainly can it's hard though with


Question: these strong winds and a snow dress but


Question: here's Ayesha to talk about how you can


Question: get an accurate measurement Oh Tim it is


Question: rough out here this morning let me try


Question: to put this on briella down so that I


Question: can sort of move around a little bit all


Question: right when we talk about the snow drifts


Question: and what you want to do when asking or


Question: trying to get measurements here for the


Question: snow keep in mind because it is so windy


Question: you're going to do with those snow


Question: drifts you do not want to give us a


Question: measurement from the snow drifts so I'm


Question: just going to give you an example


Question: there's a snow drift over here and


Question: that's measuring about 14 inches you do


Question: not want to do that you want to go to


Question: where the snow is a pretty much level


Question: and measure it that way and you want to


Question: do it three times and take the average


Question: of those three numbers now we've been


Question: talking about the winds it is brutal out


Question: here they've got a plow that's trying to


Question: plow the street but the snow just keeps


Question: piling back up with the winds now in


Question: terms of a blizzard a lot of people

Question: STRONG, BUT THAT MEANS IT WILL


Question: STAY IN PLACE, LOCKING IN ALL OF


Question: THIS COLD AIR.


Question: HOWEVER, WE HAVE ANOTHER REGION


Question: THAT COULD PROVIDE US WITH COLD


Question: AIR.


Question: THAT IS UP TO THE NORTH AND WEST


Question: OUT OF ALASKA.


Question: WITH THIS LOCKED TO THE NORTH,


Question: IT OPENS THE GATES FOR COLD AIR


Question: OUT TO THE WEST TO SPILL IN.

Question: i'm doing we got a long hose out here uh


Question: trying to keep it wet


Question: and uh hopefully don't end up like the


Question: poor guy right across the street there


Question: the whole


Question: house just went up in flames about five


Question: minutes ago


Question: and these pictures show us just what


Question: that looks like this was captured by the


Question: photographer kent porter for the santa


Question: rosa press democrat


Question: this was one of many homes destroyed in


Question: this area and i spoke to kent earlier


Question: you know it was a little intense last


Question: night uh the


Question: the after six years of this we're


Question: getting used to intense that's


Question: every summer is kind of like this it


Question: gets a little bit worse every time


Question: and at the stage the the situation was


Question: at when you were filming there is anyone


Question: trying to save those buildings or


Question: they've been


Question: they've been written off oh yeah no the


Question: the


Question: the firefighters were there there were


Question: two strike teams of of engines there


Question: but the fire moved so fast up the hill


Question: that it impacted the structures and you


Question: you know these are big these are big


Question: homes you know 2 500


Question: square feet 3 000 square feet and


Question: they're they're kind of on a ledge of a


Question: you know kind of a canyon and uh so


Question: they're really difficult to put out and


Question: when they get going the winds were up


Question: around 50 miles an hour and they


Question: impacted


Question: the houses pretty pretty routinely and


Question: they're so close together


Question: that they just took off and there was


Question: not much they could do they they did a


Question: great job they saved a lot of homes on


Question: the other side of the block


Question: uh because there was these big ember


Question: casts going on so they did an


Question: amazing job but unfortunately they lost


Question: i think they lost anywhere from 10 to 11


Question: structures on on


Question: that street and ken when you're taking


Question: these photos how


Question: easy is it to move around to navigate


Question: from one situation to another


Question: uh you know you're you're wearing all


Question: the gear that the firefighters are


Question: wearing uh the only thing you don't have


Question: is the hose and the the tools


Question: uh but you have uh you know the fire


Question: shelters the


Question: the nomex the helmets the shrouds the


Question: boots the gloves


Question: um and you know so it's kind of you feel


Question: sort of like the mummy when you when you


Question: run around on that stuff but you get


Question: used to it so


Question: but you kind of get you know we have


Question: such a good law in california 409.5


Question: that allows us access into these into


Question: these disasters to show people what's


Question: going on when they've been


Question: when they've been evacuated so it's


Question: actually pretty easy to move around it's


Question: a little dangerous during a fire it was


Question: pretty dangerous last night actually


Question: yeah look it looks that way i played a


Question: clip just now one person who


Question: hadn't taken the advice to evacuate did


Question: course of the next 24 hours we'll take a very strong northerly trajectory and if


Question: that's the case it's going to stay out


Question: of the North Atlantic and keep that way


Question: some models a few have it that it'll


Question: cross right through the areas around


Question: Bermuda and then continue Northwest


Question: potentially area affecting areas from


Question: New England to possibly the northern


Question: mid-atlantic while some computer models


Question: have it moving in which it could


Question: possibly affecting areas from the


Question: mid-atlantic down into the southeast and


Question: a couple of the models especially a


Question: couple of the United Kingdom and


Question: European models have the trajectory


Question: going straight due west on a 7 day track


Question: that would take it just to the western


Question: portions of the West North proportions


Question: of the northern Caribbean islands again


Question: these are 7-day tracks there's a lot of


Question: uncertainty but the standard deviation


Question: from the western point to the northern


Question: point is well over off


Question: five thousand mile swath so a lot of the


Question: models may be indicating the same


Question: trajectory at least over the last 24


Question: hours but overall all the model guidance


Question: has absolutely no idea where this is


Question: gonna go whether it's gonna get straight


Question: West or whether it's gonna head straight


Question: north and everything in between


Question: so there's a lot of uncertainty the


Question: timing right now of what we're expecting


Question: for most of these model guidance so


Question: start getting a little bit more


Question: consistent as when we get into around


Question: Sunday night and into Monday and keep in


Question: mind that is still several days out it


Question: being Thursday by Monday that's a five


Question: day change and everything is going to


Question: change on this a lot of this is not


Question: going to be consistent over the next 96


Question: hours now other than hurricane Florence


Question: we've been watching go from the category


Question: four to a three not down to a two we're


Question: also watching this other wave now this


Question: wave has got a 90% probability that this


Question: will become a tropical cyclone within


Question: the next 5 days it's got a 70%


Question: probability of turning into a tropical


Question: cyclone within the next 48 hours here's


Question: the latest on tropical wave invest 92l


Question: when sustained at 30 miles an hour


Question: moving to the west northwest at about 13


Question: miles an hour here's the thunderstorm


Question: activity to the northwest and far


Question: southwest it's not organized at all it


Question: is a tropical wave of thunderstorm


Question: activity the seven-day computer


Question: spaghetti guidance models also have a


Question: deviating all over the place some of the


Question: coverage from Wilmington North Carolina good morning David Robin good morning to


Question: you and were hovered right here above


Question: Cape Fear River here in North Carolina


Question: this morning and here's what's new about


Question: this monster hurricane overnight


Question: landfall is now expected about 24 hours


Question: from now perhaps even a little sooner


Question: the first effects we're expecting in


Question: just hours here but here's what they're


Question: saying this morning do not focus solely


Question: on the moment of landfall with this


Question: hurricane because of the sheer size and


Question: scope of this thing it's going to be


Question: hovered right off the coast for hours


Question: perhaps even days here and in the newest


Question: report out this morning


Question: those hurricane-force winds are going to


Question: extend 80 miles from the eye of the


Question: storm that means a hundred and sixty


Question: miles across as it just sits there for a


Question: couple of days off the coast and you


Question: know everywhere we've been in the last


Question: 24 hours families coming up to us


Question: telling me they have no choice now but


Question: to get out this morning hurricane


Question: Florence is now bearing down on the


Question: Carolina coast I'm going a little bit


Question: further inland just to


Question: say the monster storm slightly weakening


Question: but authorities say don't be fooled it's


Question: still growing wider and still expected


Question: to wreak havoc this virtual view showing


Question: the category two hurricane strength with


Question: potentially deadly storm surges and


Question: record rainfall we made decision a few


Question: days ago then we should get out the


Question: hurricane could bring waves of over 80


Question: feet and this morning authorities are


Question: now urging everyone to evacuate time has


Question: just about run out worried Florence will


Question: become an historic disaster as soon as


Question: we heard about the mandatory evacuation


Question: it was just like we were leaving anyway


Question: forecasters now expect Florence to make


Question: landfall in 24 hours or more as this


Question: storm turns its way to shore the target


Question: area is now growing and look at these


Question: images from space astronauts on the


Question: space station saying they had to use a


Question: super wide angle lens to capture the


Question: total width of the storm now 500 miles


Question: across these satellite images showing


Question: the full fury this morning of the


Question: violent thunderstorms swirling around


Question: that clear eye and last night I spoke


Question: with the Hurricane Hunters up in the air


Question: on their final flight of the day the


Question: width of this storm is actually going to


Question: be very dangerous because it's going to


Question: hover right out Stuart for many many


Question: hours yes no a stalling situation and of


Question: course we remember what happened in the


Question: dog that just all laugh I used in the


Question: last year hospitals in South Carolina

Question: storm has passed there will still be


Question: dangerous there will be trees on the


Question: ground there will be paralyzed down a


Question: figlio may no longer be classified as a

Question: someone's swimming and go away Bay this


Question: morning people are being told they have


Question: to be careful particularly with fallen

Question: buckler BBC news go away and it's just


Question: been confirmed that death in Ireland is


Question: of a woman who died after part of a tree


Question: fell on her car in West Waterford that's


Question: in southeast Ireland


Question: we had much more down as far as lines poles everything else i think


Question: power will be able to


Question: get back on faster with this than uh


Question: than it was with ivan


Question: obviously the big part of this is


Question: getting the water out and uh


Question: and then being able to come back and


Question: rebuild and do all the things that we


Question: need to do


Question: but power is the most important thing


Question: right now uh but again


Question: the gulf coast we're we're resilient


Question: people down here we're used to this we


Question: understand


Question: these things happen uh we'll get back


Question: out but right now the biggest thing we


Question: need is power


Question: and what's your message to people in the


Question: community who may want to assess the


Question: damage at their homes as this storm


Question: makes it slow move north


Question: well again if you want to assess the


Question: damage of your home


Question: go get out and do your home it's


Question: obviously getting dark now we have a


Question: curfew this evening we ask you to


Question: get back to your house uh settle in for


Question: the night and then yes when you get up


Question: in the morning but please


Question: do not go out one of the biggest


Question: problems that our police department had


Question: today


Question: was getting cars that would drive


Question: into running water and get stuck so it


Question: wasn't when people were trying to


Question: evacuate


Question: during the middle of the storm it was


Question: people sightseers who want to get out


Question: after the storm


Question: so right now if you could stay home uh


Question: wait for us to get through


Question: um you know and then we can get out


Question: there and see everything


Question: we're gonna be ready to go and get back


Question: to normal and and you know that's our


Question: whole objective


Question: uh but right now we really need first


Question: responders and road crews


Question: uh to have the priority on on getting


Question: out and getting things taken care of


Question: and finally mayor what's the situation


Question: for those who may need


Question: shelter or place to stay tonight you


Question: know escambia county has


Question: several shelters open it's been an


Question: interesting thing with shelters i mean


Question: this has been all year we've been


Question: discussing this


Question: because it's been hard we really haven't


Question: been pushing shelters because of covid


Question: um you know even even throughout this


Question: process


Question: we really shelters were not where we


Question: wanted people to go


Question: we wanted people who had either friends


Question: or relatives on high ground to go


Question: there first if you don't have anyone


Question: then go to a shelter


Question: but cobit has made it very difficult we


Question: used to compact a lot of people into a


Question: shelter


Question: we can't do that with kovitz so um you


Question: know that's been that's perhaps been the


Question: biggest


Question: issue with sheltering uh but i do think


Question: another number of shelters are open


Question: uh and we hope that people that that


Question: that have no place uh


Question: so they can go there they have no place


Question: other than they can go to


Question: we want them to go to the shelter mayor


Question: thank you so much for your time tonight


Question: prepared well I've seen this about three years ago it was not this bad but all we


Question: can do is wait it out and hope for the


Question: best


Question: so it wasn't this bad this is the worst


Question: you've seen it yes ma'am


Question: I got a camp across the lake and it's


Question: now in it wasn't in it three years ago


Question: so it's in the water so have you had any


Question: damage yes ma'am it's about a inch in in


Question: camp now how does that isn't that a


Question: little scary that this might get a lot


Question: worse over the next few days especially


Question: in Friday


Question: yes ma'am specially knowing that


Question: he's almost to the top so what are you


Question: doing to prepare are you mentally doing


Question: anything or just hoping for the best now


Question: I think that's what everyone's doing as


Question: you can see with our little buddy over


Question: there everyone's just having a good time


Question: and gathering together he said he came


Question: over here to join in with some of his


Question: friends and try to make light of the


Question: situation because who knows what's gonna


Question: happen


Question: it might crest it might not but we say


Question: that it could happen so we have to be


Question: prepared right yes ma'am and how about


Question: your family and everyone are they ready


Question: ready as can we can be yep so everyone


Question: is in very high hopes over here in Lake


Question: Arthur and Jeff Davis parish but of


Question: course it could get bad as we talked to


Question: Scott Pelley a earlier that the Merman


Question: talk could crest and the floodwaters cut


Question: could go into the entire area so we're


Question: just hoping for the best here and we'll


Question: keep you updated on Cajun first calm and


Question: of course Acadiana scalia all right back


Question: to you Adam


Question: all right thanks Danielle what have you


Question: got for us hey and that's right we did


Question: uncover some interesting things first we


Question: saw we actually didn't see the water


Question: rescue but afterwards we saw the car


Question: that was completely submerged off a road


Question: that was barricaded off they're telling


Question: people not to go in these roads that


Question: could be dangerous there's standing


Question: water you don't know how many inches or


Question: feet of water there are of course turn


Question: around don't drown like we always say


Question: and of course then we met another family


Question: who lives right around the corner from


Question: Lake Arthur which is right behind us and


Question: clearly above where it should be we're


Question: standing include like a foot of water


Question: Scott yeah about a foot right now about


Question: a foot of water it's getting pretty


Question: dangerous levels and we talked to


Question: someone earlier he said this is the


Question: highest he's ever seen he's lived here


Question: for over 25 years so it's pretty scary


Question: right here in stay and Jeff Davis parish


Question: now I'm here with Scott Pelley a


Question: meteorologist to talk with us about


Question: these River levels that are concerned


Question: right now across our state especially


Question: where we are right now at Lake Arthur


Question: Scott right so right now we're on the


Question: southwest side of Lake Arthur the Merman


Question: saw River which is the river that we've


Question: been talking about for days it's at its


Question: third highest level in history right now


Question: it's at ten point seven feet major


Question: flooding


Question: obviously ensuing just now we actually


Question: saw a few snakes in the water I did a


Question: Facebook live to show one of the snakes


Question: in the water this is what we have a


Question: flood wall just right here about a foot


Question: yeah we're a big family one big family yes when we're in need we all come


Question: together and help each other out in the


Question: last show yeah we talked about the San


Question: Luis Rey downs where there were


Question: there were was a call-out to for more


Question: horse trailers to try to get those


Question: horses out we've since learned and it's


Question: been confirmed that the San Luis Rey


Question: Downs had caught fire and the horses had


Question: been released in this so this is clearly


Question: a serious situation for horse horse


Question: owners in San Diego County tonight just


Question: to get some of the details here the Del


Question: Mar Fairgrounds does this as a volunteer


Question: so they're asking for volunteers to come


Question: in the morning to help with the horses


Question: here so if you're over 18 your you're


Question: more than welcome to come in here


Question: they're also asking for donations of


Question: supplies like hay and and feed for the


Question: horses because you can only carry so


Question: much when you have to get out in a hurry


Question: so again they're expecting as many as


Question: 500 horses here at Del Mar tonight and


Question: there's at least half of those that are


Question: here already


Question: back to you Amita Steve actually I have


Question: one question for you horses I understand


Question: are particularly sensitive to fires are


Question: you seeing any sense of stress among the


Question: horses I hope yes indeed in fact I


Question: haven't been around that many horses


Question: some I had no idea how loudly they they


Question: can be it's like Jurassic Park at times


Question: you can tell just how stressed out they


Question: are and and some of that is just because


Question: they know how stressed out their owners
