Transcripts For FOXNEWS America Reports 20241009

Sandra all right, your Fox Weather Alert the top of a brandnew hour. Hurricane milton im barreling down on florida with Lifethreatening Storm surges and Flash Flooding in area saturated with water from Hurricane Helene. It is headed that way and we are watching it Tampa Bay in the bullseye for where the storm could make Landfall Bed effects felt across the entire state. Florida meteorologist breaking down while discussing this sheer intensity of the storm. It is an incredible, incredible, incredible hurricane. It has dropped it has dropped 50 millibars in ten hours. I apologize, this is just horrific. Speed to emotional response there to what we are all seeing, John This is a big line and anticipated the worst to hit florida over 100 years and welcome back to america reports. And Sandra Smith in new york. s been winwin in Meteorologist File it can be a bad one. Washington being called the storm of the century and other storms have gotten that moniker at this one will be huge. Millions of people in Miltons Path to higher grounds and long lines at the Gas Station trying to fuel up with a journey with eastward and Florida Governor Ron Desantis sharing to everyone there are no Fuel Shortages. But he says Gas Stations are running out quickly than they normally would because of the traffic. The president s fling the Storms Path are not letting anything get in that way. We need to get the kids out and this is the whole state and it will be a direct Hit Wheriree are at. I was supposed to fly out tomorrow but shutting down the Tampa Airport at 9 00 a. M. Food is hard to find. s bay co, seems, crazy. But it is what it is. John Fox Weather Storm Mike Seidel on the Ground Madeira Beach florida and cleaning up after helene and now they have to get out again. Yes, look at this, they are getting to it as quickly as they can and 36 hours before landfall but they wont have all day tomorrow. They have the bulldozers and Dump Truck up and down both boulevard. They cleaned up to code blocks into cohours and slow and methodical. This damage in the piles of Debris Go for miles and miles out of here into the next town and the next town to Clearwater Beach Pier to the Dump Trucks rather lined up in the distance. Meanwhile we got the update national Hurricane Center 2 00 p. M. The hands have jumped up 155 category 5 but dont get hung up because the pressure is down and it will not strengthen much more, but it is expected to weaken and meaning will float him before landfall. But the search will be nasty. There is the track and the cone coming at ambleside Tampa Bay Area at. Could be the worst storm since 1911. Over 100 years ago. That is what we are watching. The surge could break the record set by helene. Dan thibault to come on, they are cleaning off Golf Boulevard that miles and miles as City Streets that look like this. They have cleaned the debris and remediated everything out of the houses and homes and it sitting here. And Tomorrow Night and Thursday Morning early, we have a surge coming and maybe 10 feet or more. Winds blowing 100 miles an hour and a Wind Gust so all of this will float around or start flying around and my vision Thursday Morning first light Golf Boulevard will be deep into Gulf Of Mexico like we saw two weeks ago. Debris scattered everywhere. That is why they are trying to get all of this off of the roadway and out of the way. The more debris out here that flies around and ends up on the streets, that will cause a problem Thursday Morning trying to get in and around dealing with the aftermath and the second hurricane to impact this area in 13 days, john. s me when people hear about Storm Surge and think a foot or two of water on the street behind you. But if the Storm Surges anything to what forecast to be which is 1215 feet, things like that behind you will be entirely underwater. I will show you where the water that for helene right now. I can tell you how high it got for helene. It was right up here. This is about 6 feet. They have already, by the way, put it in Vinyl Flooring since the floor, i could not believe it. It looks like Brandnew Stuff and they pulled everything out of the house. If it gets back out here, all of these places, the one positive note, and it is not positive which a but not else can get the image because it was damaged and ruined on the streets so basically more water coming into homes that have been cleaned out and spring cleaned. Just a very sad situation. We have never seen two major hurricanes hit the same Area Code Code you may be not direct landfall at the same area 13 days apart. The only other example in that hyperactive season of 04, Francis And Eugene around hutchison island. That was about 25 days apart. But here less than two weeks in a way to clean up this mess. It is massive and hopefully This Is It for the season. I can tell you personally if i never see another Florida Beach until next spring when im on vacation, that is fine with me. John Mike Seidel for us and madeira beach, florida, a lot of that cleaned up before it turns into a seafoam soup. Mike, thank you so much. Sandra, you can imagine up and down the West Coast of florida particularly north of sarasota, they got hit so hard by helene. This thing, we could take out a lot of those structures as well if it comes ashore because the wind is one thing but the water is quite another. Sandra we are dealing with what the path is now that obviously could change and move further to the north or south. What you are looking at right now, we are told, is the southbound traffic, Collier County naples under effectuation Orders Letter a and B Eddy of naples and all residents at that but these are the congested roads and some people are fleeing south and so they are coming in a direction they can to get out of the Storms Path. In fact, Michael Brennan owed to the director of national Hurricane Center and joins us now. Thank you for joining us. Okay, understandably you have been do we have the guest . Understandably, you have been busy but what update do you have this hour . With the latest update, and fortunately, a little more intensification. So it is starting to intensify a little bit. But we expect these fluctuations to occur up and down. Dont get hung up on the ups and downs. What is important in the takehome message, we expect a powerful hurricane to slice across the Florida Peninsula late wednesday and early thursday bringing with it a large swath of destructive winds with these wins, you are talking widespread Power Outages along densely populated portion of the Florida Peninsula or joe that is just the land. If we switched to the Storm Surge, somebody in this purple area but not Everybody But Somebody in the purple area potential to get 10 feet of Storm Surge. For some of these areas that could be roughly double what they experienced during helene. Speed to just be Clay Or Jamie room from the national Hurricane Center. This is the last chance those floridians who decided to wait it out have to get out. If there are some contemplating as we continue to watch the live traffic moving south, is there a risk to that as well and the storm could Beer South . That is why we have the entire area clean and from perspective. If we go to the Hurricane Warning Area to syria to to the south under Hurricane Warning to convey that risk. We Cant Pinpoint precisely the center is going to cross the Florida Peninsula and beyond the reach of predictability. But we can very narrowly say this area in red the highest risk of hurricaneforce winds. Similar to the south of where it makes landfall, you get 1015 feet of Storm Surge and many of the areas ordered to evacuate. If youve been ordered to evacuate those Evacuation Orders are serious and based coordinating with us at the Hurricane Center in the best information and the forecasts. Sandra im looking at new video for national Hurricane Center has posted showing a very bumpy ride into the center of the hurricane. I believe it was ms. Piggy was the name of the mission to collect data to help improve the forecast that we are getting right now. You have to imagine they were people in a dangerous journey to try to get us the best information on the Storms Path. Jamie, i was dealing with a couple of things so the storm is category what, and you expect the forecast to be what category when it makes landfall . Right now, it is a strong category 4. When it moves across Florida Peninsula, a major hurricane. It is going to be 3 over here and we can as it goes across. But that does not tell the full story, people can get lost in the numbers and almost be confused by what looks like weakening. What is going to happen is the storm will grow in size. So horizontal size. That will create more power. We saw this from helene, these big storms just create so much damage. In the damage can go farther inland. So people have to stop her to make start thinking about the categories and whether up or down and look at this broad swath of red that cuts across the entire Florida Peninsula. Sandra understand. That is like saying hurricaneforce winds to move and cro across the entire peninsula. Sandra before we go you heard the warnings you will not live through the storm if you wait it out. Table he somebody is and the Red Sox and deciding to wait the storm out, is it survivable . So, he effectuation for the Storm Surge and the peak Storm Surge, the purple areas and these red areas, more than likely ordered to evacuate. You have to heed those warnings and you will not outthink these warnings and not outthink these evacuations. If ordered to go, it is time to go. Sandra jamie, we appreciate the update. Thank you. Thank you. John and this aspect of the Storm Hospitals across the united states facing a shortage of critical Iv Fluids after flooding from Hurricane Helene. The Manufacturing Plant that provides more than half of America Supply of those fluids is located in hardhit part of North Carolina. Lydia hu is with us and what are the Hospitals Thing about the shortages . John, some say they are already getting less than half of that Idf Solution received in shipments and impacting already. Mass general in boston with Iv Fluids and Uva Hospital postponing elective and nonlifethreatening surgeries that were scheduled for yesterday and today. The company is Baxter International and it says, it is making progress to restore the Facility North of, North Carolina, but still no date for return of production and provided the state several of global plants are scaling and ramping up production to help meet u. S. Needs we expect to receive products from these sources throughout the month of no of november. So they are trying to oversee production while at home in american Hospital Association is sending a letter to President Biden yesterday urging the administration to take action and declare a shortage and use the Defense Production Act. Here is the associations chief officer. Watch. We know the Defense Production Act we can lean on fda, dod, to be able to not only Increase Production but ensure it is spread across the country. Again, wavered from hospitals across the coast and this impacts patients everywhere. John, the Fda Administration officials working with Baxter International and Idf Solutions to figure out how to restore Supply And Increase production. But it appears for now, john, the administration is not declaring shortage of critical Idf Solutions at the moment. John Lydia Hu for us, thank you.

I canceled my trip to Germany And Africa and that goes out later but i just dont think i can be out of the country at this time. Sandra that was President Biden postponing the trip he had planned in africa after Hurricane Milton after critics have slammed his Administrations Response to Hurricane Helene. Peter doocy is live the White House for us, peter are the president and Vice President on the same page about prepping for this massive Hurricane Milton barreling towards florida questioning. Not with everything, sandra, particularly it comes to what they think about the key State Level Leader making these preps, Ron Desantis. The governor of florida has been cooperative. He has gotten all he needs and i talked to him again yesterday and i said, no, you are doing a great job. It doesnt sound like the Vice President thinks so based on her answer to a report into a question about a report about Ron Desantis not answering her calls. Utterly irresponsible and it is selfish and it is about political gamesmanship. Instead of doing the childs head out today which is to put that people first. What does it mean for resources . Ron desantis is now saying he had no way to the Vice President was trying to contact him. Bet you think she has posturing anyway. I have zero time to entertain these political games. We will continue to do what we need to do to repair and respond to what may be one of the most damaging storms in the history of the united states. Associates has focusing on protecting your people are selfish, i think she ought to look in the mirror. President biden says he will skip his plan to europe and africa because he doesnt think he should be out of the country at this time as milton arrives and that is notable because when he watched Helene Hit from his Beach House in delaware, he said, it was fine. He was still in command because that is found. Sandra. Sandra Peter Doocy thank you for the update from the White House, thank you. S Payments from on this and other things have interest byron york, Fox News Contributor and Chief Correspondent we will get to the Hurricane Situation and Ron Desantis in the second first of all Kamala Harris telling anybody willing to litton she is not Joe Biden. Then she says this on The View a couple of hours ago. Watch. If anything, which you have done something differently than President Biden over the past four years . They were is not thing that comes to mind in terms of fashion i have been a part of most of the decisions that have had the impact. Speed when she may physically not be Joe Biden but her policies based on that answer are like in lockstep. Every member slammed his or her head against the wall. It is unbelievable. Shes been running as a Change Candidate. That is hard today because shes been Vice President of the united states for nearly four years. She was trying to run as a Change Candidate and one moment in a friendly interview, she said she would not have done anything different than the last four years. You had Alex Castellano on earlier and he would love to make commercial, republican commercial for that too and i believe there will be a lot of them. John and it comes to the hurricane and Kamala Harris apparently tried to call governor desantis. Im not sure why she needed to talk to him because hes been talking to the president about Hurricane Relief and preparations. But she seems to get her nose out of joint when the staff did not pass on word of The Call to Ron Desantis. Listen to what she said to. I called the governor about what florida has received in terms of impact . We have to have an agreement at some point, we need to work together to combine resources. I think it is a shame that hasnt happened. But look, it has at the local level and other state election. He will take your color as president. Ron desantis is in contact with Joe Biden who is actually president. He doesnt need to speak with her any Self Politics what she was doing. Listen to what he said. I think she should look in the mirror. We have been on Emergency Footing for two weeks straight over to my focus not been on dealing with Kamala Harris. I saw the News Report and i didnt know that she tried to contact me, but i will also say it is not about you kamala it is about the people of florida. My focus is exactly where it should be. John what do you think . She is saying im kind of a big deal and he should take my call questioning. I think she was trying to get plentiful benefit out of this. And having watched a few hurricanes, there is only one way to get a political benefit out of a terrible event like a hurricane and that is to do a really good job handling it. The governor of florida has done that in the past. He knows how to do this. As you said, he has talked to the president. We have talked to Fema And Talk to relevant federal agencies there are and the president of the united states. He simply didnt need to take a call from the Campaign Trail from the Vice President. Okay, she could attempt to make The Call but to make a big deal out of it, that seems like a bad idea. John who has more experience than Ron Desantis with hurricanes and how many times has laura been hit in the last four years . The last two weeks. John democrat and republican praised him for his preparation and response, as you pointed out. He probably better than anybody the country knows how to did this. Political careers are affected by disasters like this if you do a really bad job, a problem, but a really good job, people appreciate it. That is what Ron Desantis the position hes been in. John asked the two Bush President s who took on hurricane response. Byron, good to see you coach a thank you so much, sandra. Sandra expect to live pictures as we know the national Hurricane Center said this is your last chance to get out. s has a live look Collier County, florida, folks in naples are under mandatory Evacuation Orders. They are moving. We are obviously be putting in some areas they are part for hours not getting anywhere and people are running out of gas. I believe we got an update from Gas Buddy saying some of the Gas Stations are running very low, almost out and some almost already are. Peppering for these people who may be weighed up a little bit longer for various reasons but now trying to flee here jeff is southbound traffic, john and we are told Collier County and i believe because some people tried to head North Cant get anywhere because the traffic is just not moving. They are heading south to try to get below the current path of the storm. So, that is what is happening in this live picture as we continue to watch people flee ahead of milton making landfall on the the Florida Coast. John would cross Alligator Alley over to palm beach county. People trying to move south and east to get out of the Storms Way because it would appear miami all the way up to West Palm probably is not going to get too badly affected by this. They make at winds and rain, but it is really north of that area and take the brunt on the east coast. The whole West Coast under Hurricane Watch where warnings. It is a tough one. Sandra it appears to be somebody with a wide load on the back of one of their vehicles. I dont know if that is someone transporting a small house. You see the lights blinking. John better they transported them that Storm Surge, i guess. Also coming at flu while blues democrats reportedly worried about harris struggling to win over wisconsin, michigan in pennsylvania and political panel to break it down coming up next. Here we are 27 days out and you cant tell me that three things shes going to do. Economy is in number one Issue E in the border is number one issue and she doesnt have a plan for either.

He will be touting administrations creating good paying Jobs Plan for american spiritual but the Wall Street Journal reporting democrats are worried about Vice President uris is chance with workingclass voters. Along with the Blue Wall of wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania and economic Eve Moore and Senior Fellow at the Heritage Foundation Robert wolf, economic advisor to President Obama and 32 advisors and founder and ceo, lengthy resumes to answer my questions. Are you happy with the plans that she has laid out . I know you have a new piece in foxnews. Com touting that shes got it and this is what our economy needs. We put out a few days ago after former President Trump and Vice President harris gave manufacturing speech. Trump in North Carolina and Harris Pittsburgh and Tim Ryan former congressman and i rode what we thought about the platforms here to there was no question to us that we thought Vice President at a much better one. I actually think if i didnt say vice p Vice President harris to steve and i said, steve, you were quoted by saying im a tree to make free trader and i hate terrorists which are Consumer Taxes and i know you are not a protectionist and i know youre not an isolationist i know we are supportive of former President Trumps mexico trade agreement. They are for the hotel you had protectionism, isolation and 100 tariff and the Wall Street Journal hammered him what he said about dear. And building factories, past infrastructure and so if you were just looking at clearly Vice President harris as Wall Street Journal said was business friendly. Sandra you are talking about massive Spending Programs that she implemented and led to historic inflation and high prices that also living through today. I am yet to hear how she brings down a highpriced environment that people are not happy with. Read through every word of earpiece, but i did not hear you talk about after going after price gauchers, robert will. Why are you standing up for steve . Sandra this is harris saying trumpet is the one who has no plans to fix the economy. Also not talking about a plan for dealing with bringing down the cost of groceries and not talking about a plan for building up american businesses, not talking about a plan for strengthening americas security. Sandra how do you respond to that . It is almost comical. By the way, i was going to get my new book the trumpet economic miracle, but you are going to give it to me. I will give it to robert. By the way, they are number one train on amazon. Here is thing people can say trump doesnt have a plan to bring down inflation but wait a minute, there was no Emplacement Donald Trump as president and the average Inflation Rate was 1. 9 Inflation Rate and theft helps us 1. 4 and Kamala Harris and Joe Biden took it up to 9 and say trump will cause inflation. It is the same thing with all of these things a debt rose 7 trillion. Wait a second, timeout, steve. Be factual. Come on, trumps that went up most ever in a four year. Only means that did. I dont think they should shut down the economy . It went up fast ever as did the deficit and the current plan by committee for responsible budget that says the 15 Will Add Debt at 7. 5 trillion. Timeout, let me just finish. Well be doing the j make say this is what happened under trump, wages, wages sandra perhaps this must be a three year but because i guarantee it does not include 10 Million unemployed. Because the economy was shut down. Sandra this is a healthy debate but theres a lot to get to. Lets play this out quickly, harris challenged in a new interview and pay for those programs you are touting, watch. It is estimated nonpartisan Committee For A Responsible Federal Budget at your economic plan would add 3 Trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade. How are you going to pay for that . Okay, the other economists that have reviewed my plan versus my plan and determine my economic plan would strengthen americas economy. The question was, how are you going to pay for it . I will make sure the richest among us who can afford it pay their fair share in taxes. Sandra quick response from both of you. Robert first. She will increase Capital Gains 20 and corporate Tax 28 . Sandra some say that as a job killer. Thank you. Im not saying versus fennec 7. 5 trillion. You cannot tax your way to prosperity and this would be the biggest Tax Increase on investors in american history. It would destroy and the Wall Street Journal today making that point. You said no, it will be terrible stated this is what happens when we ran late. You have coffee in the green room and bring more pucks next time, john.

This is serious and youve got to be safe because people are dying. People have died so far, not from this hurricane but the last one. But folks, want to get to todays event. Thank you for sharing your family story. You said it all. The worst thing and i know from experience for a parent, something happening to your children. Your son, your family, your families exposed to Lead Poisoning and the water, and they deserve a hell of a lot better than they are getting. That is why we are here. That is people like alfonso are getting to work to remove leadpipe services delivering clean water. Kamala and i go back to flint wearing what happened then. Remembered, michigan . Well, providing what is good for our health. John President Biden in milwaukee going on with his event but saying it is important for people in florida to listen to local authorities and this is serious. People died in hellenic and potentially this one as well. Sandra, they need to get out of harms way. Sandra we will monitor the traffic and people are still trying to get out here till we hope they can end this might be the last day they can evacuate, john. I have said many times she went to pick a fight with mother nature, she is winning 100 of the time. 12 feet is about that house. If you are in it, basically, that is the cough and you are and. John all right, lets bring in florida democrat congressman, Joshua Moskowitz and that State Management Director under Florida Governor Ron Desantis. Congressman, thank you for joining us. So milton expected to weaken somewhat that still can impact the Florida Coast Hurricane Category 3 and may be low category 4 white or Wind Field then it is right Health Care to the farm Management Director what is your message to folks in the Sunshine State . Thanks, john, the message to listen to local Emergency Managers on the ground. Listen to director Kevin Guthrie the director of Emergency Management. If you live in Flood Zones, they ask you to evacuate and please leave. You dont have to go 100s of miles but get away from the coast. Go to shelter or a Friends House or a hotel, but youve got to get away from the coast. 1015 Storm Surge and 150mileanhour winds. And thayer is going to be significant challenges along the coast and Storm Surge and where this i will make landfall anywhere between tampa all the way down to the edge of sarasota county. So we really dont know so everyone needs to be listening. It is a large evacuation. I know people are sitting in traffic. It is much better to sit in traffic and it is to remain in your home in a Flood Zone that has been evacuated. If you lives in a mobile home, for seniors that live in assisted living facilities and nursing homes, hopefully they are effectuated by now. John mandatory evacuations up and down the coast clear water down to naples. Naples city under mandatory evacuation order. The Storm Surge in Tampa Bay and along the coast can be anywhere 1215 feet if as forecast, militant comes to the sunshine skyway. What kind of an effect is that going to happen as the water gets funneled into Tampa Bay . Well, look the division of Emergency Management actually exercise several years ago when i was the Director A Cate Category 5 from coming into Tampa Bay. Kevin is a man who led the exercise. So they have a lot of scenarios what could happen, right . I dont want to talk about what could happen. What i want to talk about his people listening to the warnings. There are going to be significant challenges on the Ferry Islands and possibly pinellas countys and not accessible because bridges are going to be locked down or heavily damage.
