The virus also top of mind as they brace for isaias in florida. Lets get the latest now from rob marciano whos in melbourne. Good morning to you, rob. Reporter good morning, eva. A little bit of good news overnight, weakening to a Tropical Storm but the path of this along the east coast, so much population here is going to problematic. No doubt about that, especially as you mentioned with the coronavirus pandemic and what damage it is already to parts of the caribbean. This morning, isaias bearing down on florida. With strong winds. Heavy rain. The storm ripping through the caribbean with winds over 80 miles per hour, killing at least three people. Isaias now closing in on the united states. Residents up and down the east coast bracing for impact. 2020 has been a crazy year with the virus and now a potential hurricane. Reporter floridas governor declaring a state of emergency. If youre ordered to evacuate, please take it seriously and go. Reporter Palm Beach County opening four shelters. But only as a last resort in government buildings and shelters, they take your temperature. They also ask awe series you a series of questions. Here, they also ask you where you are and what county.

The center of it is still off the coast of florida. You can see most of the rain and most of the weather is east of the center, and thats the good news, because everyone lives west of the center right now. Heres the forecast track, likely remaining as a Tropical Storm, very choose to hurricane seventh, any jog to the left will be huge. With this track, its always a hard thing to forecast. Look at this, through the carolinas tomorrow and through the northeast tuesday, wednesday, so the entire east coast impacted by this in one way, shape or form.

Now, mandatory evacuations are in place along the coast of North Carolina which is right in the storms path, and joining us is the executive director of the North Carolina division of Emergency Management. Thank you so much for speaking with us this morning. Youre facing a collision of two emergencies right now, the pandemic of course and this serious storm that were dealing with. I understand youre actually changing up the states typical response and now urging residents not to go to shelters. How did you come to that decision . Well, i think that, you know, during the covid19 pandemic, it really changes the environment. And what we want to do, while were responding to a hurricane, is we also want to make sure were not exacerbating the spread of covid19. So to that end, we ask that our residents follow the guidance of their local officials. To evacuate the shorter distance if possible and if they can stay with family and friends. If that doesnt work and you can afford it, go to a hotel. If none of those work for you, well provide shelter. What were trying to do here is to increase physical distance between our residents and visitors so that were not spreading the virus. Mr. Sprayberry, just to be clear here, youre urging people not to go shelters, but hotels might be available. Would resident haves to pay for their hotel rooms or would you provide those if theres a real need . If theres a real need we can provide them. Again, we ask the residents, all the visitors, heed the orders of their local officials, that way we ensure their public safety. Speaking of heeding the orders, North Carolina saw a record week in new coronavirus cases and deaths. A recent aaa survey found that 37 of residents in your state say they would be less likely to evacuate in a storm because of covid19 fears. How worried are you that the pandemic might prompt people to make poor decisions what it comes to their safety and not heed the warnings from officials like you . I believe that when it comes to it and theyre ordered to evacuate, well see a High Percentage of people evacuating. Were positioned all response resources will be in place today by noon to include national guard, swiftwater rescue, urban search and rescue teams. So, were strapped in and ready to go. Mr. Sprayberry, thank you again for your time. Were wishing you and of course all the people of North Carolina the very best during this difficult time. Thank you. Thank you, whit.

This as total cases in this country top 4. 6 million. Abcs trevor ault has the latest from outside Lenox Hill Hospital right here in new york city. Trevor, good morning to you.

Cases are still on the rise in half of the united states, and already this past week nine states hit record high hospitalizations and ten of them hit record deaths. This morning, as the cdc makes a gruesome estimate of as many 182,000 american deaths by august 22nd, california is now the first state with half a million confirmed cases, recording a record high daily death toll saturday. Our rights to not wear a mask its going to kill us. Shut it down. Reporter in lake tahoe, concerned californians sounding the alarm about huge groups of children bused in from the bay area ignoring social distancing guidelines. I saw three full buses and i would estimate about 180 people. Reporter texas has now passed new york in total cases, stark County Memorial Hospital approved an Ethics Committee to determine which patients would get treatment. Even urging families of those with low survival chances to allow them to die with care at home. We got families lost three, four members within a week or so. Reporter despite rising hospitalizations and deaths in georgia, parents protesting outside atlanta, demanding the option to send their children back to school. Kids do not learn as well digitally as they do face to face, so i just want the choice back to get my son back in school. Reporter not far away, this 29yearold is trying to fight off the virus in the hospital only a week after it killed his father. You dont think that its real, look at me im in the hospital right now, you know, hooked on oxygen and my dad just died. Its not a joke. Its not a game. Reporter officials in new jersey are also pushing that message, as the states rate of transmission soars. Airbnb has suspended or banned 35 listings where people complained of house parties or events, including one Massive Party this week which authorities said involved 700 people. Everybody who walks around refusing to wear a mask or who hosts an in indoor house party who overstuffs a boat is directly contributing to these increases. This has to stop, and it has to stop now. Reporter in North Carolina, dr. John byron fought through an early case of covid19, he said hospitals are desperate for plasma donations. Hes urging people to donate.

Near triple temperatures are making things harder for hundreds of firefighters trying to get a major wildfire under control. The blaze exploding in size east of los angeles. Abcs zohreen shah joins us. Shes in riverside county, california. Good morning, zohreen. Reporter good morning, eva. This fire brought one home to the ground, 2,500 more homes threatened, and there is no end in sight. Since yesterday morning, this fire has grown eight times in size. Overnight, hundreds of firefighters battling a massive inferno from the air and the ground, one thats been multiplying in size and zero percent contained. The fire started as a small brush fire days ago. Its now out of control, scorching nearly 15,000 acres in Cherry Valley east of los angeles and still growing. I can anticipate you know at least the next few days are going to be critical for the firefighters and id anticipate us being out here for the next week. Reporter the fires speed forcing residents to evacuate. Nearly 8,000 have fled their homes. Im angry that somebody could intentionally light this, and it just burns me. Our affiliate is reporting this fire started as suspected arson fires, merging into one monster blaze. The official cause is still unknown. Whit . Zohreen shah, thank you. We appreciate it. We want to turn now to politics and the gridlock over Coronavirus Relief. More meetings, but no deal yet as millions of americans face financial disaster. Abcs alex presha from washington. Reporter its the deal millions of americans are depending on a new round of coronavirus economic stimulus. Saturday, democrats and Trump Administration officials met on capitol hill for three hours. Their longest meeting of the week. It was more productive than the other meetings. There are many issues that are still very much outstanding. I want to be clear, theres still a lot of open issues but, again, i think it was the most constructive meeting weve had. Reporter at stake millions on the verge of losing their homes after the cares act Eviction Moratorium ended. And the end of that 600 per week unemployment benefit. As this woman was prepared to move out of her home in colorado, she knows she cant make the rent. What are you going to do . I dont know. Reporter anger boiling over, many upset a deal hasnt happened yet. You have an obligation to the American People to not just leave us out to dry to fend for ourselves. Reporter former Vice President joe biden firing back in a statement, because donald trump is abdicating his responsibility, we now face a potential housing crisis across the country. So much at stake with this deal. Alex presha joining us from washington. Alex, another developing story youre also following this weekend. The president threatening to ban tikt tiktok. You actually have some new information on that . Reporter thats right. The president threatened to ban tiktok for fears the Chinese Government could get access to users government data. Now tiktoks Parent Company has responded by completely divest its u. S. Operation. Tiktok released a video saying its not going anywhere. Its responsible for 10,000 u. S. Jobs. Guys . All right, alex, thank you. Lets bring in Abcs Martha Raddatz who will be hosting this week later this morning. Martha, good morning to you. Lets start with the negotiations over the Coronavirus Relief bill. I know youll have Speaker Pelosi and secretary mnuchin on the show this morning exclusively. How close are they to a deal here and what are the major issues dividing them . You heard senator schumer there saying it was the most productive meeting and Steve Mnuchin has said the same thing. Everyone said it was very constructive, but there is no deal. They make very clear that theyre a long way from any kind of actual deal. I think they know where each side stands. A lot of these issues its a longterm deal versus a shortterm fix. The republicans had wanted a shortterm fix, but nancy pelosi had said, no way. We want a large relief bill, and we want the whole thing done at once, and at the heart of this is that 600 which you have been talking about, whether they continue that 600. Many republicans said they have just gotten enough money out there already, and that people should be okay, and its a disincentive to work they believe. And for republicans, this Liability Protection for businesses and schools. Mitch mcconnell said they have to have that. Thats his red line, the Liability Insurance meaning protection, meaning they cant face any sort of lawsuits because of coronavirus. So much riding on this. Lot of people counting on that cash. Lets switch gears and talk about veepstakes. Joe biden reportedly in the final decisionmaking stages on his pick, or Vice President ial candidate. One name surging of late, representative karen bass, what are you hearing this morning about the various candidates . You have to look around the country and see the comments. Former democratic governor ed rendell of pennsylvania, he was talking about Kamala Harris and karen bass. He said kamala can rub some people the wrong way. Karen bass is not likely to do that, rendell said the number one rule for picking the vp do no harm and certainly joe bidens thinking about that but we saw that photograph of joe biden with that list saying, do not hold grudges against Kamala Harris against what she said during those old debates. Its were down to the wire on a consequential pick here. Martha, thanks very much. I want to remind everybody, check out this week later this morning for exclusive interviews with House Speaker nancy pelosi and treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin. Later this morning right here on abc. Eva, over to you. Lets switch gears now and get a check of our weather with rob in melbourne, florida. Where hes tracking isaias this morning. Good morning, rob. Reporter good morning, eva. The wind and rain picking up. The center of this thing is still over a hundred miles to our south and east. But the wind is expanding to the north and in this case to the west. Here it is on the satellite and radar composite. Rain bands continue to swirl in the florida coastline. Just about 40 miles off the coast. Almost to West Palm Beach at this hour, and it will pretty much stay there at this hour. Any jog to the west will change these Tropical Storm warnings back to hurricane warnings. Not only the florida coastline, georgia coastline, South Carolina as well. Were looking at locally six inches of rainfall, winds 50plus miles per hour. Storm surge anywhere from 1 to 4 feet, especially during high tide, and maybe it looks like landfall is going to be somewhere between charleston and wilmington later on tonight. And riding up i95, a front trying to push this off the sea, that squeeze play is the big story with this storm, and that is locally over a half a foot of rainfall, and that is going to bring some flooding with it, especially some of the biggest on good morning.

Preparing for reentry into the earths atmosphere. Splashing down in the gulf of mexico, after a twomonth stay at the International Space station. This will be nasas first water landing since the end of the apollo era. Abcs gio benitez is in houston with more on that. Gio, an exciting time but theyre watching the weather as well.

Reporter the dragon is orbiting earth at more than 17,000 miles an hour, when it reenters the atmosphere, it will experience temperatures as high as 3,500 degrees. After 64 days in space, these two men say they cant wait to see their families and deliver that glittered dinosaur to their sons who sent it up them.

Reporter officials urging swimmers to be cautious. Beachgoers on high alert in other parts of the country too. In alabama at orange beach, this 15yearold came dangerously close to a shark. He was swimming in the water on friday with his father and mother when he was bitten. Once i got to shore and i looked at it and it hit me again. I wasnt feeling pain.
