NewsTranscript
00:00who's shooting at a political rally back in June recalled some of the darkest chapters of the
00:06country's drug-fueled violence. He died today. The family of Miguel Uribe Turbe said the politician
00:12died at a hospital in the capital of Bogota. He was 39 years old. He was shot three times,
00:20twice in the head, while giving a campaign speech in a park, and had since remained in an intensive
00:25care unit in serious condition with episodes of slight improvement. So in the meantime, I want
00:32to show you some of the video of the arrest and capture of the suspect who allegedly carried this
00:40out here. So this is what we know. A teenage suspect was arrested at the scene of the June 7th attack
00:48in a working-class Bogota neighborhood. Authorities later detained several other people, but they have
00:53not determined who ordered the hit or why. So in the meantime, the shooting, which was caught on
01:03multiple videos, it alarmed Colombians who have not seen this kind of political violence against
01:08presidential candidates since Medellin drug lord Pablo Escobar declared war on the state in the 90s.
01:16Uribe's own mother, well-known journalist Diana Turbe, was among the victims of that period.
01:20She died during a police rescue after being kidnapped by a group of drug traffickers led
01:26by Escobar seeking to block their extradition to the United States. Well, Uribe was a lawyer with a
01:33master's degree from Harvard. He entered politics as a councilman for Bogota when he was 26.
01:39So this is a very, very sad set of circumstances. We were about to show you a live picture courtesy
01:48of the Associated Press of so many mourning his loss. I want to show you some of that video. This
01:56just ended. This was live, but we have it here. Let's bring it in.
02:00So look at the outpouring there of support. Take a look at some of this video.
02:11This was the ceremony earlier today there in Bogota. And you can see there his body lying
02:19in state in the Colombian Congress. Supporters and others there invited to pay their respects.
02:24Like I said, the conservative senator and presidential hopeful, he died today, more than two months
02:30after being shot during a campaign rally in western Bogota. We also have statements in
02:36from U.S. State Department officials, including the Deputy Secretary of State
02:41and also Secretary of State Marco Rubio. I want to put this up. Marco Rubio saying this.
02:48Deeply saddened to learn of Colombian Senator Miguel Uribe's tragic death. The United States
02:55stands in solidarity with his family, the Colombian people, both in mourning and demanding justice
03:01for those responsible, he says. Also, Bernie Moreno, the Republican senator from Ohio,
03:10was just in Colombia on what is known as a congressional delegation, a bipartisan one.
03:14He says, Miguel Uribe represented the best of Colombia. May he rest in peace. May his spirit
03:20guide Colombia into the future. And may this horrible situation wake up a sentiment of reconciliation
03:25and direction for Colombians there. Bernie Moreno, a Colombian descendant himself, speaking out there
03:35after his trip to the South American country. So had to get in some of those statements there
03:42on this very important story. We're going to continue to follow it in case we hear anything
03:49else. But really, really sad circumstances there in Bogota. All right. I'm Andrew Kraft. Thanks so
03:54much for being with us. In the next hour, we're continuing our international coverage. A lot of
03:59developments and updates out of the Middle East. We'll get to them at that time. But here, let's take
04:04a quick commercial break. Still, like I always say, there's a lot more to get to on this Monday.
04:08We'll get to it in just a moment.
07:08At that time, the House will take up a package of bills in response to the July flooding in the Hill Country and in Central Texas.
07:15The only thing standing between Texas and real disaster relief is whether our absent colleagues decide to show up tomorrow.
07:24So I don't take it lightly. I think it's reprehensible that they would continue to stay absent from this.
07:32State Representative A.J. Lauderback, who is a former sheriff, said he supports Burroughs' decision to enlist state troopers in the roundup of AWOL Democrats.
07:41Members, may I have your attention.
07:46Burroughs provided an update on the search, which includes stakeouts and the creation of a new tip line to report sightings of quorum breakers.
07:54Let's understand that we are keeping receipts for every gallon of gas, every mile traveled, and every hour of overtime associated with the pursuit of these missing members.
08:04Under Rule 5, Section 3 of the House rules, those breaking quorum will be held financially responsible for the costs they've created, not the taxpayers.
08:15Well, we're doing everything we can right now. I just don't think we have enough punitive measures.
08:20I think we're going to have to enact some more. I'm for every action it will take to make sure they show up for work to do their job that they were elected to do.
08:32That shout of cheaters from a group in the gallery was toward Republicans who are trying to redraw congressional districts in Texas.
08:39There were a few Democrats in the chamber Monday, like Representative Eddie Morales.
08:43Every person fights their own way. I applaud their efforts if they think that this is their process.
08:49I know that my constituents have expected me to be here, and I will continue to be the voice for them here.
08:54Morales criticized Republicans for responding to President Trump's request for the Texas rewrite, but he was reminded that Democrats in other states have done the same thing.
09:03In response to that, Morales suggested a GOP fix to this political arms race.
09:08Republican colleagues and acquaintances and friends of mine have also noted, well, other states are doing it, and they're primarily blue states.
09:16If President Trump was really interested in fixing this, he would actually issue an executive order banning gerrymandering if he wanted to do it that way.
09:25If he wants to do it through Congress, we have a Republican-controlled both houses. He can do it that way also.
09:30It needs to stop. It needs to stop. The technology is there, and I think Texans and Americans alike are ready for that step to move forward.
09:42All right, we thank Rudy Kosky for that report here.
09:45So what we're going to do now, you can watch the moments on the Texas State House floor where quorum was not reached yet again.
09:52Let's watch. Here's Speaker Burroughs.
09:54The roll has been called, and a quorum is not present.
10:06Today, the Calendars Committee placed House Bills 1, 2, 18, 19, and 20, all vital flooding and disaster response measures, on the Tuesday calendar by a unanimous 6-0 vote.
10:20These are not symbolic bills. They are critical measures that would expand the powers of the Texas Division of Emergency Management to improve emergency response across the state,
10:34create the Texas Interoperability Council, which would help local governments acquire key communication equipment to better coordinate response efforts,
10:43assist communities with purchasing and upgrading emergency communication systems,
10:47require outdoor campground facilities to have a flood disaster plan,
10:53and create public protections against fraudulent bad actors trying to solicit charitable donations after a disaster.
11:01Those bills are set to be on the floor tomorrow,
11:06and I know those of us present are eager to take action on them.
11:11The only thing standing between Texas and real disaster relief is whether our absent colleagues decide to show up tomorrow.
11:24Now, to update you on the process of locating our colleagues in compelling a quorum,
11:31the Department of Public Safety has special agents deployed in every region of Texas.
11:35The House has deputized dozens of officers and dispatched them across the state.
11:42They are set up outside members' homes, conducting surveillance, knocking on doors, calling their phones multiple times a day.
11:50So far, no one's home, but the search continues, and it will not stop.
11:55We also want to thank the public.
11:58Many have submitted tips about whereabouts of absent members.
12:01For example, over the weekend, we received word of a rally in Fort Worth,
12:07where a couple of absent members were allegedly making appearance.
12:10We took this as actionable intelligence, and DPS was dispatched immediately.
12:17Although in this instance, members did not end up being physically present at the event,
12:23we will keep following every credible lead until these members return.
12:27I have asked DPS to establish a tip line to receive information in leads regarding members' whereabouts
12:35if they happen to be in the state.
12:37That phone number is 866-786-5972.
12:45Let me repeat that for those who wanted to get out a pen and write it down.
12:49866-786-5972.
12:53Understand that we are keeping receipts for every gallon of gas, every mile traveled,
13:00and every hour of overtime associated with the pursuit of these missing members.
13:06Under Rule 5, Section 3 of the House Rules,
13:09those breaking quorum will be held financially responsible for the costs they've created,
13:14not the taxpayers.
13:15To those absent members, you can go to another city, another state, even another time zone.
13:24But you cannot escape your responsibility to the people of Texas.
13:27Eventually, you will be here.
13:31Tomorrow, when the gavel drops, the question is simple.
13:35Will you be in that chair to vote for these critical disaster recovery bills,
13:38or will you be remembered as one who did not show up?
13:43The choice is yours.
13:56Members, the call of the House remains in force.
14:00Under House Rules, the House may adjourn from day to day.
14:02I will provide written permission to be entered in today's journal
14:06for each member registered as present during today's session
14:09to leave the chamber and return at 10 a.m. Tuesday.
14:13Mr. Garren moves the House stand adjourned until 10 a.m. Tuesday.
14:16Is there objection?
14:18I hear none.
14:19House stands adjourned.
14:25Okay, there you have it.
14:26They're going to try again to meet quorum tomorrow morning.
14:29We'll see if they're successful.
14:30Remember, a majority of these state Democrats,
14:33they're still not in Austin.
14:35But penalties are racking up against them
14:38for failing to reach quorum there.
14:40Back out live to Austin.
14:42Take a look at this.
14:43Kind of hard to see there.
14:45Texas state capitol in the distance.
14:47Well, the redistricting fight, the arms race,
14:49continues among states here.
14:51Take a look at this.
14:52California Governor Gavin Newsom reading,
14:54or rather sending a letter to President Trump saying,
14:58quote, if you will not stand down,
15:00I will be forced to lead an effort
15:01to redraw the maps in California
15:03to offset the rigging of maps in red states.
15:08So Newsom ratcheting this up even more,
15:12saying they're going to go tit for tat,
15:15do this in kind in California,
15:17from what Texans are doing there in the Lone Star State.
15:21Sending this letter to President Trump saying,
15:24we're going to do the same.
15:27So had to get that in there.
15:28But in the meantime, we're at the bottom of the hour.
15:30I'm Andrew Kraft.
15:31Still a few more headlines to get to this hour,
15:34including some major weather ones,
15:35really, really bad flooding.
15:37In the Milwaukee area over the weekend,
15:38we have some updates.
15:40And we have now a tropical storm named.
15:43She could turn into the first Atlantic hurricane
15:46this very season.
15:47We'll tell you who she is in two minutes.
15:50We'll see you next time.
16:20We'll see you next time.
16:50We'll see you next time.
17:20We'll see you next time.
17:50And welcome back here to Live Now from Fox.
18:00I'm Andrew Kraft.
18:01A little past the bottom of the hour.
18:02Like I said before the break,
18:04some top weather headlines here.
18:06So as you know,
18:07Live Now in conjunction with Fox weather,
18:10we give you all of the latest,
18:11especially when we're in the middle
18:13of Atlantic hurricane season.
18:14Well,
18:15the first named Atlantic tropical storm,
18:17Erin is her name,
18:19has been forming there.
18:21Deep in the Atlantic, Fox weather,
18:23they are covering this story.
18:24Let's listen to what we expect Erin to turn into,
18:28if anything.
18:28Covered this hurricane season,
18:30find out how to stream us free at foxweather.tv.
18:38Fox weather is your hurricane HQ.
18:39I'm meteorologist Ari Sarsolari.
18:41This is Fox weather at night.
18:43Thanks for hanging out with us.
18:45We've got to talk about this tropical system.
18:47Everybody wants to know about it.
18:48Tropical storm,
18:48Erin.
18:49It's the best chance that we've had so far at seeing an impactful storm.
18:53Now,
18:53this one also has the best chance of becoming a hurricane.
18:57It's highly likely that it is going to become a hurricane.
19:00It's this little guy right here.
19:02It's west of the Cabo Verde Islands,
19:03and it is a very long ways away from the United States.
19:08Now,
19:08there has been,
19:09let me just give you the long and short of this real quick.
19:11Then we're going to bring in Andy,
19:12Andy Hazleton from the University of Miami.
19:15High amount of confidence up until it gets about here.
19:18Okay.
19:18All the forecast models are pretty much showing a strengthening storm,
19:21likely a hurricane somewhere northeast of the Leeward Islands.
19:24In about six or seven days or so.
19:26After that,
19:27there's a lot of uncertainty.
19:28The trend in the models has been toward more of a possible recurve toward the north,
19:34but this would be farther toward the west of where Invest 96L saw that happen.
19:38But there are still some forecast models that are showing some kind of impacts here
19:42along the east coast of the U.S.
19:43You've heard me talk about this ad nauseum.
19:45So let's go to one of the guys that's one of my go-tos in my Twitter feed,
19:49Andy Hazleton,
19:50has been for years associate scientist over at the University of Miami,
19:53All right, Andy.
19:55So let's talk forecast model trends.
19:57You were just mentioning during the break when we were talking,
19:59you know,
20:00I was talking about the trends in the models for that recurve,
20:03which kind of seems like good news,
20:04but you're also talking about some trends that have been farther south.
20:08What does all this mean?
20:08Yeah, I think it just goes to show that when you're talking to six,
20:13seven-day forecasts or beyond,
20:15that there's just a lot of inherent uncertainty
20:16because today we've seen in the short term some of the models,
20:20like our hurricane models halves,
20:22which is one of the ones I work on,
20:23coming a little bit south,
20:24closer to the Leeward Islands.
20:27And so just something to keep an eye on there.
20:29And, you know,
20:29obviously the pattern in the long range does still tend to generally support a recurve
20:33as, you know,
20:34kind of a gap opens up between the Bermuda high and the Atlanta and the United
20:37States high,
20:38and that sort of backs to the West.
20:40But when we're talking a day eight,
20:41nine forecast,
20:42there's just so much uncertainty that it's hard to really rule anything out.
20:45And if you see something kind of further south initially,
20:47and then,
20:48you know,
20:48it gets toward the Bahamas,
20:49you might,
20:50that's when things become a little bit dicier.
20:52So I think we just kind of got to see how it evolves and where we go over the
20:55next few days.
20:56And hopefully by,
20:57you know,
20:57as we get later in the week,
20:58we'll have a much better idea of if this is any threat to the Eastern
21:01Seaboard.
21:02Yeah.
21:02So we had our hurricane expert,
21:03Brian Norcross,
21:04he was on a little bit earlier too.
21:07And,
21:07you know,
21:08I'm just going to play the clip of him here,
21:09giving his thoughts on the general forecast of Aaron here.
21:13Listen in.
21:13All right.
21:13So what's in play here and what's going on?
21:16Well,
21:16high pressure right now is driving this thing West.
21:20And that's why we expect it to continue more or less to the West may
21:23actually dip a little bit South and then come back North.
21:27How much it does that.
21:28That's a little bit of an open question on where it ends up down here.
21:32Notice the bright reds in there.
21:34That's the strongest winds kind of North on the North side of the system
21:38with a system moving West.
21:39You would expect that.
21:40All right.
21:40What's going to happen Saturday here.
21:42Look at this cold front comes down,
21:44kind of pushes the high this way,
21:47opens a bit of a door in here.
21:49Okay.
21:49Where does the door open?
21:50Is it there?
21:51Or is the high a little farther over here?
21:53If the system stays weaker,
21:55longer,
21:55longer,
21:56the flow is not quite like this.
21:58It goes over farther West before it turns and therefore a lower system,
22:03a weaker system would go farther West.
22:04So all those things in play.
22:06And that's why we have uncertainty.
22:08Yeah.
22:09What are your thoughts on that?
22:10Andy,
22:10the idea that if the storm stays weaker,
22:13it has a better chance of maybe making it farther toward the West.
22:16We could have a little bit of a upper level wind shear as we get toward the
22:19islands.
22:20And that could,
22:21that'll be coming out from the North.
22:22Some of that deeper thunderstorms,
22:24it could actually could be sort of on the South side of the system.
22:26That might tend to tug it a little bit.
22:28So,
22:29you know,
22:29I think,
22:29I think it's going to be a question.
22:31And yeah,
22:31your graphic there shows it.
22:32Well,
22:32you know,
22:32the gaps between the two highs,
22:34but sometimes models can,
22:36you know,
22:36underdo that high in the medium range GFS,
22:39for example,
22:40is known to do that.
22:41So,
22:41you know,
22:41where that gap is and exactly where the storm is,
22:44when it approaches that gap is going to tell us a lot about,
22:46about this turn and,
22:48you know,
22:48how close it may be to the United States when that happens.
22:50Yeah.
22:50This Bermuda high,
22:51it always seems to be the main player with the steering and with these
22:54storms that come in off the main development region.
22:57So Andy,
22:57I can't believe I just learned this today.
22:59I should have known this already,
23:01but you actually go up into the hurricane hunters and you're one of the
23:04people up there,
23:05you know,
23:05take getting information.
23:07I'm curious,
23:07what is your exact role when you go up there and the hurricane hunters and
23:10fly into these storms?
23:11Are you flying into this storm?
23:13And at what point do we start flying into storms that come off the West
23:16coast of Africa?
23:17I know a lot of questions at once.
23:18I'm sorry.
23:19Yeah.
23:20So I'm a part of the research crews of the scientists that,
23:24you know,
23:24go in to help collect the data quality control it.
23:27So I will be,
23:28we are looking at potentially flying this storm starting later this week.
23:32The typically you need a storm to get to about 50 West.
23:35So,
23:36you know,
23:36we're several days from that because you have to be in range of at least
23:38the islands of either Barbados or St.
23:40Croix or some of the ones we fly out of.
23:42So when they're way out there in the East Atlantic,
23:44it's just too far to get to.
23:46But as it gets closer and,
23:47you know,
23:48it's about 50 West,
23:49you're able to sort of get,
23:50get some reliable data and,
23:53you know,
23:53have time to fly through it.
23:54I see that one.
23:55September 26,
23:562024.
23:56That's got to be Helene.
23:58What was it like flying into that storm?
24:01Yeah,
24:01it was kind of wild seeing that one heading up toward Tallahassee where I went to Florida State for my,
24:06all my degrees.
24:07And so,
24:08you know,
24:08I talked to a lot of friends there and,
24:09you know,
24:09knowing it was going to be very impactful and see it rapidly intensify.
24:13It had been in golf storms like Michael and also Ida and Ian.
24:16So,
24:17you know,
24:18it's great to be on the front lines of collecting that data,
24:20but also,
24:21you know,
24:21kind of sobering when you see the power of these things and knowing that they're heading toward people.
24:25I'm sure you get this question all the time,
24:27but I have to know,
24:28like,
24:28what was the most violent storm as experienced in the plane as you were flying through the eyewall?
24:35Yeah,
24:35it was probably Michael right before landfall in 2018.
24:38It was on the verge of becoming Category 5 at the time.
24:41I think it did become a Category 5 right after we left.
24:44And yeah,
24:44there was just a very,
24:45yeah,
24:46the video there is like cylindrical and violent,
24:49turbulent eyewall.
24:50And yeah,
24:51it was obviously a devastating impact for the panel.
24:54Yeah,
24:54it's always interesting.
24:56Sometimes you look on the satellite imagery and when these things are really well put together,
24:59you get like that stadium effect that's going on,
25:01right?
25:02Where,
25:02you know,
25:02the eyewall isn't perfectly vertical.
25:04It kind of tilts outward a little bit.
25:07And you can really clearly see that on some of these pictures.
25:09I mean,
25:09that really must be something else to be able to see that up close from inside the eye,
25:14huh?
25:15Yeah,
25:15definitely.
25:16And,
25:16you know,
25:16just what's cool,
25:17cool,
25:17interesting is that not every eye is the same,
25:20you know,
25:20every,
25:21some of them are more slope,
25:22some of them are more vertical.
25:23And,
25:24you know,
25:24there's just,
25:25there's a lot of different structure.
25:26And that's,
25:26that's the kind of things we learn from these flights.
25:28In addition to being able to feed this data into the computer models and hopefully get better
25:32forecasts so that people can be better prepared and able to protect themselves when they do threaten.
25:37I say,
25:37let's talk a little bit about this thing down in the Gulf.
25:39I think we've beat Aaron with a dead horse.
25:42Oh,
25:42look at that.
25:42Sam pulled up the,
25:44let's pull up the graphic.
25:45She,
25:45she took the time to grab it real quick.
25:46We're having some technical issues here tonight,
25:48so I don't have control of my graphics.
25:50Sam Thomas is killing it back there,
25:52running graphics for us.
25:53There's the stadium effect.
25:54You can kind of see it a little bit there.
25:56All right.
25:56Now let's talk about the Gulf thing a little bit.
25:59You know,
26:00we covered this with Paul during the last block.
26:01I don't think this is going to end up being too big of a deal.
26:04It's probably done its worst.
26:05I think we could see some flooding from here on out,
26:07northern parts of the Gulf Coast,
26:08Florida Panhandle,
26:09especially.
26:10I'm just fascinated by the idea that the Hurricane Center tags it as an area to watch,
26:14and then also says zero chance at development.
26:17Why tag it in the first place then?
26:20I guess just to acknowledge that they see it,
26:22you know,
26:22and there's,
26:22there's always a slight chance,
26:24you know,
26:24you never know.
26:25What's interesting is the upper level winds over this thing are really favorable,
26:28kind of an upper level high pressure.
26:30And we actually dumped a bunch of rain on us on South Florida over the weekend.
26:33But yeah,
26:34a couple of weeks out,
26:34some of our AI models,
26:36you know,
26:36that we're looking at this year,
26:37we're trying to make this into a bigger system,
26:39but thankfully nothing really got going at the surface until,
26:42you know,
26:42maybe here at the very end,
26:43or else we could have had a more impactful storm in the Gulf.
26:46Yeah,
26:46it caught a lot of eyes yesterday.
26:48A lot of people were posting about it.
26:49And I remember just looking at the satellite imagery being like,
26:51hmm,
26:52what time of year is it?
26:53What's that in the,
26:54in the Gulf?
26:54What's the water temperature down there?
26:56There's some kind of,
26:56some kind of leftover boundary down there that,
26:59some kind of low pressures clearly spinning around.
27:01And there was some clear spin.
27:03I mean,
27:03it had some nice,
27:04it's kind of broad,
27:05but,
27:05you know,
27:06luckily it doesn't look like this is going to turn into anything.
27:09That amount of rain though,
27:11tropical rain,
27:12it's just like a different beast.
27:13I feel like we saw that on Sanibel Island the other night,
27:16maybe talk about,
27:17what's the difference between this,
27:18the type of rain you get when it's got tropical origins.
27:21Yeah.
27:23Cause you're getting that direct moisture feed from the South,
27:26you know,
27:26the Caribbean,
27:26that deep rich tropical moisture.
27:28And so you get these huge downpours in a short amount of time.
27:30We had a ton of street flooding down here in Homestead,
27:33you know,
27:34where I live street flooding on Saturday and in the morning,
27:38especially,
27:39you know,
27:39overall it was probably beneficial because we,
27:41we've been in a little bit of a drought South Florida.
27:43So we've,
27:43you know,
27:43we've been kind of been relying on these synoptic scale,
27:47you know,
27:47large scale rain events to get us rain this summer.
27:49Um,
27:50so anytime you do that in the summer without a hurricane,
27:52it's beneficial,
27:52but you know,
27:53too much in a short period of time can also cause some issues as we know.
27:56Hey,
27:56one more thing real quick.
27:57And I know I'm jumping around a little bit.
27:58I just remembered,
27:59I wanted to talk about,
28:00uh,
28:00as it relates to Aaron and the possible scenarios that could play out.
28:04Remember hurricane Lee back in 2023.
28:08Um,
28:08that was one that it did the recurve up toward the North,
28:12but it ended up having some pretty significant impacts up,
28:14especially in parts of new England,
28:16Eastern Canada,
28:17Nova Scotia.
28:18And I,
28:19I,
28:19the more and more I look at this and again,
28:21we're very,
28:21very far out in time here.
28:23I could see this being a possible scenario,
28:25right?
28:26Something like that.
28:28Yeah,
28:28that's the thing.
28:29Even if it does recurve and not directly impact the Eastern seaboard,
28:32you know,
28:32there's,
28:32there's a lot of Bermuda,
28:33this Island right there.
28:34Um,
28:35you know,
28:35and then if you get too close to us,
28:37you can still have,
28:37you know,
28:38brush impacts.
28:39We had a hurricane Edward in 1996 that kind of brushed,
28:41um,
28:42the out of the Cape Cod and Eastern Massachusetts,
28:45you know,
28:45Atlantic Canada.
28:45So,
28:46you know,
28:46the further West it gets,
28:47the harder it does,
28:48it does get to recurve without at least kind of impacting somebody.
28:51So still a long way to go with this one.
28:54All right,
28:54Andy Hazleton,
28:55you're the man.
28:56I appreciate your time here tonight.
28:58Uh,
28:58killing it as always.
28:59He's a great follow on X.
29:01Let me just double check what your,
29:03uh,
29:03your handle is on here.
29:05It is.
29:05Oh,
29:05look at that.
29:06At Andy Hazleton.
29:07How easy.
29:09All right.
29:10We thank our Fox weather colleagues.
29:11They're getting us all ready for possibly hurricane Aaron.
29:16Don't want to get ahead of ourselves here.
29:18Remember,
29:18uh,
29:18she's still very,
29:19very far out there in the Atlantic courtesy of our X red weather system.
29:24You can see her kind of churning out there still as a tropical storm,
29:28but according to our colleagues there at Fox weather,
29:31she could turn into a hurricane by Saturday.
29:35So we'll have our eye on this for you.
29:37The national hurricane center also posting this today on X saying Aaron is
29:42moving quickly westward forecast to become a hurricane later this week in
29:46the central tropical Atlantic.
29:48So stay tuned for that.
29:50You know,
29:50a Fox weather especially is your go-to place for hurricane coverage.
29:55And we usually take them during our hurricane coverage.
29:59All right.
29:59In the meantime,
30:00uh,
30:00let's move there from the coastal United States in the Southeast.
30:04Let's talk about the Midwest,
30:05a lot of flooding over the weekend,
30:06uh,
30:07in the Milwaukee,
30:08Wisconsin area.
30:09Take a look at this live picture over the Milwaukee skyline at night
30:12there.
30:13So this is what we know.
30:14The Milwaukee area began drying out today after weekend rain hit unofficial
30:19records in Wisconsin of more than 14 inches in less than 24 hours.
30:24That led multiple rivers to flood at record high levels,
30:28washing out vehicles,
30:29flooding basements and cutting power to thousands of homes here.
30:33Well,
30:34Wisconsin governor Tony Evers saying I'm declaring a state of emergency to help
30:39Wisconsinites and communities across our state recover from severe storms and
30:44flooding.
30:45Tonight,
30:45I visited Wauwatosa in Milwaukee to see local storm and flooding damage
30:49firsthand and meet with some of the folks impacted.
30:52Well,
30:52our colleagues there at Fox six in Milwaukee covering this story from all angles,
30:57including reporter Bowen Kedrovich.
30:59Let's listen.
31:00fire crews are saying they are working to contain what they call a white
31:05powdery substance.
31:06Tosa fire says there is no threat to the community.
31:09Tosa fire says debris got onto the train tracks from the flood.
31:13They add the flood likely caused pallets to get swept onto the train tracks from
31:18commercial businesses.
31:20And then a train hit the pallets causing a white powder to spread.
31:24Tosa fire couldn't confirm to us what that white powder is.
31:27We spoke with nearby businesses and some workers say the flood waters rose high
31:32in this area of Tosa village.
31:35Tosa fire says they have been in contact with Milwaukee hazmat team and no
31:38additional resources were needed at the time.
31:41Even after the water has started to recede in areas,
31:44this comes to show the problems Tosa continues to deal with after the
31:48aftermath of the weekend flood.
31:50As far as the walking bridge and all bridges in Wauwatosa,
31:53we're going to have city engineers out verifying that there's no structural
31:58damage or safety concerns before the city will then reopen all the bridges
32:01over the river.
32:03Tosa fire says since Saturday at 6 p.m.
32:05they received 177 calls to their fire department,
32:09and that is not counting the calls made to the Wauwatosa police department.
32:13In Tosa, Bowen Kudrovich, Fox 6 News.
32:19Bowen, thanks so much.
32:21Back out live there.
32:21Let's take a look at some of the damage in some of these videos we've compiled
32:25here of the flooding.
32:26Take a look at this.
32:28Courtesy of Sky Fox.
32:31The drones overhead.
32:33So this is what we know.
32:34Thankfully, no fatalities had been reported as of this morning from the storms
32:38that began Saturday night.
32:40They stretched into Sunday.
32:41Road closures were more isolated today as flood warnings continued there in
32:46Milwaukee, Waukesha, and Ozaukee counties.
32:50About 2,000 homes in the area remained without power as of this afternoon,
32:55according to the Associated Press.
32:59So the flash flooding led to the cancellation of the final day of the Wisconsin
33:03State Fair in West Allis outside of Milwaukee,
33:06as well as USA Triathlon, Sprint, and Paratriathlon national championships in Milwaukee.
33:13Thousands of athletes from around the country were expected to participate in that event.
33:18Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson said he's hearing stories of residents across the city,
33:23including his own uncle, who had water all the way up to the top of their basement.
33:27Now, the National Weather Service predicted more rain for the area Monday night,
33:32but nothing like the prolonged deluge Saturday into Sunday that caused the flash flooding here.
33:39So had to get that on your radar.
33:41But in the meantime, let's move from the Midwest out to the Southwest.
33:44Remember, numerous, several massive wildfires burning in parts of southern Utah and northern Arizona.
33:52Our Fox colleagues are there covering it all.
33:55Let's listen.
34:00Thousands of gallons of water pour into these tanks in minutes.
34:03A few yards away, fire crews cut down trees and dig a perimeter through the forest.
34:08So we're standing in what we call a fire line.
34:11Crews have dug the ground here down to bare mineral soil.
34:15And what that does is when the fire approaches and burns through these pine needles on this side,
34:20when it gets down to this soil, there's no fuel left for it to burn, and it will stop right here.
34:26If anything flies over the line, if we have embers flying in the air, to use the water to put those out.
34:32Ground crews maintain the fire line while helicopters dump water on the active flames.
34:36Matthew Wilcox from Arizona Forestry and Fire Management says exceptionally dry conditions
34:41and an extreme heat warning add challenges to containing the fire.
34:45We've started calling it the fire year.
34:47We're seeing unseasonably warm temperatures and dry temperatures across the country.
34:52This isn't really an Arizona-specific thing.
34:54Wilcox says agencies work together across the country as these fires pop up.
34:58This also means they have to share sometimes limited resources.
35:02Obviously, we don't always get every single thing we want, and that goes for any fire.
35:06There isn't a fire in the country right now that doesn't have a need just because of how volatile firefighting is.
35:15All right, we thank our Fox colleagues there.
35:18Amalia Roy with that headline.
35:20All right, in the meantime, let's take our final commercial break of this hour.
35:23When we come back, two major domestic headlines.
35:25We've got to update you on that deadly explosion at the Pennsylvania steel factory earlier this morning.
35:31And remember that deadly shooting outside the CDC headquarters in Atlanta on Friday afternoon.
35:37All updates on that in just a moment.
35:45We'll see you next time.
36:15We'll see you next time.
36:45We'll see you next time.
37:15We'll see you next time.
37:45We'll see you next time.
