And warren buffet reveals the ultimate test of how youve lived your live. Early today starts right now good morning, im phillip mena. And im frances rivera. Hurricane dorian delivers a catastrophic blow to the bahamas. Some homes are submerged on abaco eye lan. Parts of paradise already completely devastated as the slowmoving storm threatens communities. The National Hurricane center in miami says it ties with a 1935 labor day hurricane as the strongest in the atlantic. And its looking like floridas fate lies in a handful of miles as dorian dances off the coast. At least 1 Million People in the carolinas and georgia have been ordered to evacuate because of the category five storm. Meanwhile, President Trump made this surprising remark im not sure that ive ever even heard of a category five. I knew it existed and ive seen some category fours. You dont see them that much but a category five is something that i dont know that ive ever even heard the term, other than i know its there. He says hes never heard of the term, but so far there have been four category five storms during his presidency, including dorian joining us live from miami nbc 6 is julia bagg. The beach evacuations are going to begin in the next few hours reporter thats right, phillip. Theyre set to begin at 8 00 this morning were now under a state of emergency here now, what that means, beaches are closed in fact, Emergency Managers are expected to keep them open until tonight. Theychanged their minds and decided to do all of this much sooner, including those evacuations. So right now nobody allowed on the beach. The mayor here in jacksonville urging people to stay out of the sg intercoastal as well the bridges that lead to the beaches, they are expected to remain open through tomorrow, but once they close them, once things get bad,then they will remain closed until further notice now, as far as those evacuations, that means hotels are closing, people are going to have to leave all along the beaches here i do want to be clear, though, about those mandatory evacuations. Police cannot actually force anyone to leave, but the risk for those who stay behind is should there be an emergency and you call 911, there is no guarantee that somebody will be able to show up and rescue them. So right now as they prepare for those evacuations, families who had perhaps hoped to spend a Beach Weekend out of the labor day holiday, thats no longer happening, and also schools that were closed today anyway are going to be closed tomorrow and wednesday here in the jacksonville area. Hope the change of plans is as bad as it gets there. Thank you so much. Lets check in with meteorologist bonnie insidschne who has the latest. The latest advisory has the storm barely moving. Remember, its made three land falls already as a category five the movement is to the west and a category five located 120 miles to the east of west palm beach, florida maximum sustained winds have dropped a bit because theres an eye wall replacement cycle thats happening where will the storm go . The northerly turn is expected later on tonight or perhaps into early tomorrow but staying off shore, close to florida as well as the carolinas. By the time we get to thursday and friday were still dealing with dorian. Theres the threat of a landfall later this week, perhaps somewhere in the carolinas we cant let our guard down just yet, even though the immediate threat is for the bahamas. Its really unprecedented. It looks like something were going to be dealing with until next weekend. Bonnie, thank you terror along a tenmile stretch of highway in texas. The shooting spree left seven dead and a dozen more injured. The gunman led police on a harrowing chase, opening fire on bystanders along the way nbcs Vaughn Hilliard is in odessa with the latest reporter good morning. Here in odessa and midland, this is your metropolitan area of west texas its a population of about 280,000 folks here and over the course of two hours on saturday afternoon, there was mass confusion and chaos, frankly, as what began initially as a traffic stop along the i20 turned into two hours of essentially road rage from this gunman we now know the gunman is a 36yearold white male, ultimately after about those two hours it all came to an end right here but along the way, there are now 15 active crime scenes, if you drive along that tenmile stretch youll see yellow tape in which authorities continue to investigate what unfolded. We now know that there are seven dead and there are 22 injured. Among those injured includes 17monthold anderson davis, who had shrapnel go through her chest and her tongue, her lips it knocked out her bottom teeth. Again, 17 months old i want to let you hear from her parents who we spoke with last night. When i looked over at our daughter, she was just covered in blood, like so much blood i couldnt even tell where she had been hit. I feel joyful for our daughter that shes okay and we got to bring her home. Were very fortunate and grateful authorities tell us that this all began as what was a simple traffic stop over the failure to turn on a turn signal. But we also know from authorities that they say that an arstyle weapon was used, however they have not answered the question as to how exactly that weapon was obtained by the gunman. So many questions vaughn, thank you. And that community in west texas is coming together in the wake of the shooting hundreds attended a vigil for the victims on sunday. The first of several scheduled throughout the week. We have learned the youngest victim killed was 15yearold leila hernandez. Her older brother was also shot and is recovering. She says she was at a stoplight when the gunman pulled beside her car and fired. Amazingly, she wasnt injured. I keep running scenarios in my head and i feel so lucky that i feel so lucky that i was not hurt im so sad inside. Because i knew what was coming toward me, but i couldnt help. This was the second mass shooting in texas in a month, coming weeks after a gunman killed 22 people at a walmart in el paso. And coincidently, this weekend new state laws went into effect there to make it easier for people to carry guns garre Garrett Haake is in texas with more. Reporter guns now welcome in the pews unless the church puts up a notice like this one. Am i more safe in your church if the person next to me is carrying in this church you probably are. We dont believe theres any place for guns in church. New laws going into effect will loosen the gun rules and will allow firearms to be stored in vehicles on school property, and block landlords from prohibiting guns on their property this is absolutely the wrong direction for us to take its going to be measured in the lives lost, not in the lives saved. Texas republican governor pushing back. What do you say to people who look at that and wonder if texas is going in the wrong direction to stopping more shootings some of these laws were enacted for the purpose of making our communities safer. Other Mass Shootings are seeming to do little for the policy debate. Were looking at a lot of different things, concepts, its been going on for a long time. Background checks. The state with the most registered guns now making them more accessible. Garrett haake, nbc news, odessa, texas. So news overseas now in some of the most chaotic demonstrations yet in hong kong. Pr pr pr pr pro demock raes groups are ther setting fires. Houston Astros Justin burr lander tossed his third career nohitter. He struck out 14 blue jays on his way to becoming the sixth pitcher in Major League History to throw at least three nohitters he pitched his last in toronto as well. Hes now the first player to throw two nohitters as a visitor at the same ballpark. Bonnie schneider is back with us with more on dorian. We are dealing with this incredible storm, because not only is it a category five but its barely moving so the poor bahamas already had three landfalls and with the movement to the west, theyre going to deal with more torrential rain. I want to point out that dorian is number four in terms of getting four years in a row of category five storms, which has never happened before. So dorian is breaking a lot of different records, including the second strongest storm when youre judging by wind speeds in the Atlantic Basin only tied with a storm that was back in 1935 so dorian, were not done with it yet and it is going to work its way close to the u. S. Coast line that beautiful. Highs will be in the 60s with lots of sunshine and pleasant conditions dorian a record breaker on so many levels, but eventually we just want to get the storm out of here, but we have days ahead for that.
