Weve been making most of a crazy situation. Kristen bell is stuck in florida because of Hurricane Irma. She started posting pics with residents who had evacuated. She didnt stop there. She even found time to appear on jimmy kimmel last night. I told him you were Johnny Carson because he didnt know who you were. Owh, he didnt know that . Presenteded by toyota, lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning. Floridas governor says the destruction from Hurricane Irma is horrible. Video from the air shows the scale of the damage after the giant storm ripped through florida. Millions of people who evacuated are starting to go home. Crews are bringing aid. But the recovery effort will take weeks or months. The storm is blamed for least ten deaths in florida georgia and South Carolina. Nearly 5. 7 million florida utility customers are still without power. Look at this before and after images from space show how much of the state was left in the dark. 95,000 floridians are still living in shelters and 10,000 people who rode out the storm in the florida keys may need to be evacuated. After moving through florida, the remains of irma are bringing more rain to southeast and heading toward the ohio valley. Serious damage reported as far away as charleston, South Carolina. Jeff glor is in clearwater, florida. The coast guards largest air station in the lower 48. Jeff, good morning. Good morning. Typically what they do here when a big storm comes through the tampa st. Pete area, theyll take the helicopters to other parts of florida. That is miami, key west, maybe jacksonville. This time, because the storm was so big, they had to take all of these helicopters out of the state into new orleans. They are now back, ready to respond to emergencies. But this really was a statewide event with every different city dealing with different issues and its now moved well beyond florida. From the air, irmas destruction along the florida keys can be overwhelming. Homes became piles of mangled lumber. The hurricanes tore a massive hole in the side of this building in orlando. In miami irma peelled off part of the retractible roof at marlins park, also wrecking dozens of boats. Miami beach police say its still not safe to return. Downed power line, flooding, trees in dangerous shape and conditions and everyones very, very tired. So that formula can lead to some real problems. Reporter 80 miles south, governor rick scott toured the florida keys and the gulf coast from the air. Hes activated all 7,000 members of the Florida National guard. Just because the storm passed, its not safe. Were going to rescue everybody. But everybodys got to be patient. Reporter jacksonville suffered some of the worst flooding after nearly 10 inches of rain. As did naples. Hundreds of miles south. We flew in a helicopter east of tampa and saw how the storm transformed farmland into swampland. That is a lot of flooding. The equivalent of 7 inches per hour. I think everythings intact. Reporter people in southwestern florida like jeff pompeo of naples took irmas strongest punch which included 140mileanhour wind gusts. He knows, despite the damage in his neighborhood, and around collier county, the destruction could have been worse. How do you prepare for Something Like this . You dont know until its over, you know what i mean . Were pretty lucky. Reporter the coast guard sent one c130 plane overnight to the keys to help with communications. Theyre now sending two more. We watched them leave. Those are taking heavy equipment and supplies to the devastated florida keys. A lot of work still to be done there of course, thank you very much, jeff. One reporter who made it to the florida keys compared the damage to a war zone, those are his words. Most of the lowlying islands are devastated and have no Running Water or communications. Almost 53,000 utility customers in the keys are without power right now. Route 1, the only route in and out, was closed for inspection following the storm. The first people are being allowed back in right this minute. Mark strassmann is near route 1 in florida city, gateway to the keys. Mark, good morning. Reporter good morning. There were so many evacuees here who are desperate for the chance to go home and see whats left of that home. Today, theyre going to get their chance. I want to show you something. This is a look at the long line of cars. These are all keys evacuees who are getting the chance to go home. They go to this police checkpoint, they show their i. D. And theyre allowed in. The ban on the upper keys was finally lifted at 7 00 a. M. This morning local time. This is the first stop of the marathon recovery. This is the florida keys in the wake of Hurricane Irma. A 115 mile stretch of paradise now overwhelmed with debris and destruction. Totally demolished. Reporter in places like marathon, peoples homes were obliterated. Oh, my gosh. Reporter by 130 mile per hour winds and nearly 15 feet of storm surge. You want ocean, youre going to have to take the chances. Reporter about 30 miles away in key west, irma levelled home, and businesses. Sections of the overseas highways, the only route in and out of the key, are inaccessible. Crews are racing to clear the road for First Responders trying to reach those who need help. County Officials Say the 42 bridges that span the keys need to be inspected before all the keys can be reopened. About half those bridges were reported safe by monday evening. They continue to evaluate the infrastructure, the roadways, the Health Hazards that they find prior to allowing residents to come in. Reporter but frustrated floridians are running out of patience and just want to get home. I have water, i have food, i have dogs, and i cant get to my house. This should have been thought out a while ago. We dont know where to go marathon we dont know reporter this long line of evacuees returning home had lined up before day break. There were hundreds of them at 7 00 a. M. When the gates first opened. These folks know theyre probably in for a rough, rude awakening. But thats okay. There are three Navy Ships Positioned off the east coast of florida including an Aircraft Carrier to help with recovery. The governors urging patience. Just the upper keys residents are being allowed in, not the lower keys. This will go on for days. As irma moved north, it cautioned severe coastal flooding in georgia and South Carolina. At least two people died in georgia when storm surge and rain flooded communities. Irma sent four feet of ocean water into downtown charleston, South Carolina. The ocean level reached nearly 10 feet above normal. In charleston, where the storm surge was one of the highest recorded in a century. Reporter people here in charleston were prepared for what may have been Hurricane Force winds but what they got here, what the real headline was, was a tide that became fueled by the storm surge from irma, the tide was the third highest in the citys history. The water came spilling from the pashley river on to the battery here in charleston. Get a look at the video from white point garden, inundated with saltwater as it rushed in like a raging river. How about Waterfront Park . Benches that looked like they were sitting in the middle of a lake. People on boats navigating their way through the city. Further south in savannah, georgia, more than 400,000 people were forced to evacuate there and elsewhere along the georgia coastline. Back here in South Carolina, the governor had 55 shelters on call, standby, ready to go. They only needed to use about 25. By the way, as for the record that was set here in charleston, the tide was the third highest. But get this, the third highest tide and the fourth highest tide both happened within the last two years. Thank you, david. Irma also caused some of jacksonvilles worst flooding in more than 150 years. The st. Johns river rose into the downtown area and several neighborhoods. The coast guard and firefighter rescued dozens of people. In jacksonville, victims are waiting for the water to recede. Reporter good morning. In this riverside community, these folks here got that floodwater the worst. The mayor said things could actually get worse because this floodwaters expected to rise and fall gradually over the next several days. The st. Johns river flowed into Downtown Jacksonville and riverfront communities. The National Weather Service Called it a serious event. Weve passed historic levels. The levels will continue to rise. Were in rescue mode. Reporter jacksonville mayor said mandatory evacuationings were ordered on friday. There are some that didnt evacuation. Certain area, many areas along the river. Combine that with the fact that we have had historic unprecedented storm surge. Reporter emergency crews including the coast guard and local firefighters combed through neighborhoods looking for people trapped by rising waters. More than 100 have been rescued. This is unbelievable because we havent had it like this before. Reporter southeast of jacksonville, Hurricane Irma sent beach homes sliding into the sand. And in nearby atlantic beach, powerful winds toppleled dozens of trees. This one barely missing donnas home. She says she and her husband planned to stay at a hotel but the hotel closed due to evacuation orders. So we kind of hunkered down and it was fine until this happened. Thank goodness its not, you know, it didnt hit us at all. Reporter now, about 150,000 people are without power. 150,000 homes, rather. And the situation, again, is still not exactly going t get any better because of these floodwaters that are in these neighborhoods. But officials are telling folks to be careful. There are a lot of downed trees. Theres a lot of debris everywhere. So right now, were really looking at the cleanup phase which starts today. Oh, boy, a lot of work to do. J jericka, you be careful too, thank you. Gas shortages along with blocked roads and traffic delays are making the drive home very difficult for many evacuees. Adrianna diaz is in orlando where many gas stations are running out of fuel. Reporter good morning. Many of the stations throughout the state still dont have gas like this chevron. They still have the plastic wrap wrapped around the pump. Thats protection to keep the nozzle from flying off during the storm. Now, the situation is spotty. This station still has no gas but the one across the street does have gas. What happened is with the massive evacuation ahead of the storm, people were rushing to gas stations to fill their tanks, fill their gas cans and now tens of thousands are rushing back home. Many of them going to stations that still have no gas. Thats creating long likes at the stations that do have gas. Part of the problem is that some of the ports here in florida are still closed so the state isnt getting as much new fuel as it normally does. According to the tracking site gas buddy, more than 40 of stations here in orlando have no gas. More than 65 of stations in gainesville have no gas. And more than 60 of stations in miami and Fort Lauderdale have no gas. So there is some good news here. The port in tampas expected to reopen this afternoon. There are actual vessels waiting offshore with gas, waiting make those deliveries once the port reopens. All right, thank you so much, adrianna. 11 of floridas major airports are reopening this morning after irma forced them to close. More than 14,000 flights have been cancelled in florida and the caribbean since marriages impact. More than 10,000 of those were in florida alone. At hartsfieldjackson airport in atlanta, the worlds busiest airport, 1,800 flights have been canceled. Chris van cleave is at Miami International airport where a limited number of flights are taking off and landing this morning. Chris, good morning. Reporter good morning. Flipts are coming and going here at Miami International once again. These are some of the people that will be among the first to get out after irma. Airports in ft. Lauderdale, west palm, jacksonville, orlando and tampa, all plan on reopening today as well. Ft. Myers is without power. It hopes to reopen tomorrow. Several concourses here at mia suffered water damage during the storm. Some Ceiling Tiles also fell in the gate areas. To reopen, the airlines flew in planes with staff crew and supplies yesterday. The tsa also had to fly in people to make sure they had enough folks to staff their checkpoints. Crews here at the airport had to make sure the airports jet fuel supply was not contaminated and was still working after the storm. Now, it is a limited schedule today. So not all flights are going to go. Check your airport. Check your flight status before you head out to make sure you have a flight. Chris, thanks. Irma weakened and is now a posttropical cyclone. It moved through the northern part of florida to tennessee yesterday. Rain bands now span from arkansas to ohio. The storm lasted 13 days as a tropical system. It may cause flooding in parts of north carolina. Up to 3 inches of rain could fall in just a few hours. President trumps former chief strategist vows to go after vulnerable republican senators in next years midterm elections. Just weeks after leaving the white house, steve bannon is targeting the republicans he views as standing in the way of the president s agenda. He promises to use his influence to support more populist challengers. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with bannons plan and gop reation to that plan. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. Yes, some republicans worry that bannon is going to cost them their narrow senate majority. They believe that the candidates he favors would not fare well against democrats in swing states. But bannon insists he isnt hurting the party. Hes remaking it. People that are not supporting the president s agenda that are coming up for election in 18, they ought to understand theyre going to get primaried. Reporter bannon issued this warning to republican lawmakers who crossed the president. Theres not going to be an opportunity to be a never trumper, okay, youre either going to get with the president s program and have his back or be held accountable. And maybe have a primary challenger . Absolute, 100 . Reporter bannon vowed to take down arizona senator flake, alabama senator strange and nevada senator dean heller. Hes backing more populist or conservative challengers like danny tarkanian. He has run unsuccessfully for office in nevada five times and met with bannon last week. He told me that he and breitbart is going to be 100 in my race and supportive of me. And we can count on them. Reporter now that hes not in the white house, bannon is free to use his ties to wealthy donors and his widely read website to fire warning shots at republicans like tennessee senator bob corker who recently said the president lacked stability and competence. Corker is debating whether to run again in 2018. Some Top Republicans like john mccain view bannons threats as a nuisance. Do you think party would be stronger if several incumbents were unseated . Thats what he believes. Im supposed to comment on what steve bannon believes . Good night. Reporter but other republicans dont dismiss bannons plans quite that easily as one Top Republican aide put it to me, nora, every dollar that bannon spends on one of these primaries is a dollar that republicans need to spend protecting their incumbents, instead of going after democrats. Nancy, thank you. Onmccain, never one to mince words. I like that tactic, just say good night, conversation over.

We turn now to a serious story. A family of the 15yearold who is suing the boy scouts of america on his death. Ray was becoming an eagle scout when he collapsed and died of a heat stroke in remote west texas. Omar omar villafranco, good morning. Rays parents are suing the boy scouts for wrongful death. They signed their son up for a beginners course in backpacking and he ended up in a difficult trail in 99degree heat and he collapsed on a remote part of the trail and police say it was nearly impossible for paramedics to get to him in time. Reed had been earning badges in the boy scouts since he was in first grade. Every time he walked through that door he was very excited to show me, look what i got, mom. Reporter he was one merit badge away from the 21 needed to become an eagle scout. To earn his final merit badge, reed signed up to begin an introductory backpacking trip at the buffalo trail camp where his parents expected him to learn outdoor stikills for two days. I feel he would receive the education to be able to do what was asked for him on an intrukt rehike. For what we had signed him up for he was more than able. Reeds parents say he was unexpectedly moved to a more advanced hiking group, and they took off days earlier than planned in 99degree heat. Hours after this photo was taken he collapsed on the trail. Who do you blame . I blame the boy scouts of america. In the lawsuit, they say the scouts went against their own guidelines by sending reed out with a 14yearold and 18yearold instead of what the policy requires and they should have altered the plan in the extreme heat. They violated several of their policies for safe scouting. The boy scouts of america says they cant comment on ongoing litigation, but released a statement saying the health and safety of our youth members are of paramount importance. We strive to create a safe environment for youth to experience outdoor adventure. Reed was airlifted from the trail, but his parents say they werent told their son had died for four and a half hours after his death. Three months later, theyre still trying to adjust to life without their only son. I miss him ing issisinging u in the bathroom. I miss picking him up from school. I miss his hugs. I miss his presence. Reporter the comedas are suing for 1 million and they add, they have not heard anything from the National Office of the boy scouts.

People here in charleston were prepared for what may have been Hurricane Forced winds, water came spilling from the river on the battery here. Some called some of jacksonvilles worst flooding in more than 150 years. These folks got that flood water the worst. Things could actually get worse. The families who landed in san juan have the survive from ravage the island and they were never quite sure when they were going to get home until they saw the National Guard c 130.

Reporter as we come on the air, people are returning to the northern section of the florida keys. Folks that live in the southern part will still have to wait and see the impact of Hurricane Irma. Yesterday we made it down to big pine key where we saw homes that appeared as if they had exploded, at least two homes appear to have caught fire and still smoldering. And houses that sit on the ocean were severely damaged by storm surge. We saw many mising walls and roof. The surges force pushed through one home and blew right out the front door.

Homes that look like islands. Were on a street where the water is starting to recede. Were seeing people wade their way back to their homes. Weve seen people driving through this water. But yesterday, the water was so deep, up to my waist that we watched as people lined up here with kayaks and canoes to paddle their way back home. This neighborhood of mostly woodframe and center block homes has been inundated. The water is creeping up to the mailboxes. If you look here, you can see the water line coming up to the door. Were actually in the back of a truck from a homeowner down here who had to evacuate when this storm hit. Many people were in their homes, at the time, in the middle of the night having to leave in waist deep water. Bonita springs is along the river which had swell before irma blew through. Her and her boyfriend had tho put on waiters to urn had to put on waiters to return home. This is the second flood in like two weeks.

Ill be traveling around what youre trying to do is talk to each individual, they have needs. They have a family. Its their individual problem. Weve got a lot of people without power. People worried about having the fuel to get home. Theyre worried about what, you know, what theyre going to go back to. Theyre all worried about their jobs. Were doing everything we can, on the phone this morning with the utilities. Ive been on the phone to make sure into the state. Im working, you know, the utilities have over 30,000 resources from out of state thats come in to help get power on. When i was out, i was selling powerlines that covers that area that im thankful.

I can tell you, i talk to President Trump pretty much every day, you know, as were going through it i talk to him three times yesterday. I talk to fema all the time, every resource im asking, theyve been helping us. Were going to do everything we can to help individual in this state, every individual is important.

Its been team of effort. We still have a lot of work to do. Ive got to get people back in their home, you know, im proud that everybody is working together. But i care about everybody state has a to live their dream again. Governor, the head of fema said to us, that he hopes to create a culture of preparation, what is the single lesson you have learned from your experience dealing with Hurricane Irma. You know, what ive learned by doing this is that, one, you communicate, communicate. All through this, we did daily phone calls. Hospitals, with their nursing homes, with our local governments, with fema, with our utilities, with our fuel suppliers, and what you do, is by doing that, you find the problem and you find the you fix them. Because everybody has ideas and we need to share them because, you know, our job is who cares where the idea comes from.

Equifax faces more than 30 lawsuits this morning over one of the greatest lawsuits in history. Hackers stole the perm information about 143 million americans and that includes Social Security numbers addresses and even credit card data. The company fafaces mounting cr over how it handled the breach. In a statement afounsing the hack the companys ceo says we pride ourselves on protecting data and were conducting a review over all security operations. Melody is in San Francisco. Good morning. Reporter good morning. You talk about 14 million customers, almost half of the u. S. Population, what can hackers do with this information . Very simply, steal your identify. They can go out and get credit cards rges loans, wreak havoc on your credit. This is a bad situation for equifax and for people in america and canada and the uk. How do you know if your information have been stolen . Theyve established a website and you can go to that website, type in your last name, the last six digits of your Social Security number but i would have to tell you, talk the safest precaution and assume you are breached thuz these numbers are so huge. The question always when you have the equifax website suggesting that people who signed up for Free Credit Monitoring Service gave up their rights to proceed. They clarified the agreement. They also waited a month to notify of the breach. They have bungled this in every way possible, charlie. Everything from initially the site had some kinks in it when you went to check it to the fact that they had this waiver that 9 worth of free credit monitoring would be worth waiving your rights to a future lawsuit. They have since changed that. Theres some questions around some stock sales that occurred for people inside of the company that seisay is coincidental and would expect a company of this scale and size to have run all sorts of scenarios to be repaired for a crisis like this and clearly theyre making this up as theyre going along. This is not good. It may be coincidental but the optics dont look good when they decided to sell those stocks. They say they didnt know and all this will come out and im sure the sec will be looking into it. The fbi is involved here as well but Technology Inside of the people were aware but how did they not tell the leadership . 40 days to reveal this . Theres so much here that is not good. What are the potential outcomes would you say . Theyve lost some of their market value. I think they will be paying some settlements in terms of these suits and this is going to go on for a while but the one thing i want to make sure our viewers want to understand, you want to be vigilant about this credit monitoring because a lot of this data that was breached is evergreen. This is not about a credit card number that you can change. Very good point. Your Social Security does not change. Thank you very much. Princeton university has topped the list.

Do they help you put things in perspective even after something as horrible as this . They do.

You can find the complete list at cbs this morning. A deaf stating hurricane can cut through our differences as americans. Shes in the toyota green room to remind us whats now know how there are people that vulnerability are important that they kind of walk into it, a, thats not me and i dont hang out with people like that. For me, it was a year long street fight. It was a slugfest. Nu vulnerability pushed. I fought back but probably won my fight back. Thats a portion of one of the most popular talks. The 2010 discussion about the power of vulnerability is the fourth viewed ted talk of all time. It has been viewed 31 million times. Brown has spent more than a decade sharing shame and vulnerability. Today shes out with a new book. Its called braving the wilderness. The quest for true belonging and the courage to stand alone. True belonging doesnt require you to stand who you are, it requires you to be who you are. Good morning to you. Good morning. Im fascinating with your title. Because those to me are two competing ideas, yet, you say theyre both important. Yeah, and the research took me by surprise. I thought belongings was something we associate with groups of people. As it turns out men and women who have the deepest sense of true belongings are the people who have the courage to stand alone. They are willing to maintain their integrity and risk disconnection in order to stand up for what they believe in. Under no circumstances would you want to change who you are . What emerged as the greatest barrier for belonging, fitting in. We assess the situation and we acclimate. And so real belonging requires us to be authentically ourselves and very difficult in their po larized environment. Growth is a part of everyone so its not about not ever changing who you are. Its about changing to be accepted. Thats the part of the belongings. But you say now were turning away from each other. Were turning away from each other. Were going to blame and rage. Blame and rage becomes anger and thats all part of the pain that were experiencing. Fear leads to terrorism that were all deeply afraid. One of the other big shocks is looking at these two tracks of research that we see emerging across the world globally is one, we are more sorted than weve ever been in the history of the u. S. Were more likely to go to school with people who are politically and ideal logically like minded. You would think it would be closer ties, more connection. But as it turns out as sorting grows so does loneliness so were becoming more lonely as were becoming more what you read, what you watch, what you hear. Whats interesting about what happens is its not its counter fit connection. The only thing we have in common is we hate the same people. You worry about Holding Hands with strangers. Explain what you mean. One of the things that emerged is that a belief in Human Connection is a fundamental part of connection. That is not breakable but we can forget at times. I mean, as a houstonian, we were just massively reminded, there was no one, my husband was in a kayak pulling neighbors out of their house, at no times i was in a shelter. At no time did people say what is your political belief . We need reminders, collective joy and pain, repieminders that are connected by something greater than us and whether its music on concerts or disaster relief. You talk about dehumanization, but thats what you see a lot of people doing now. Dehumanization is at every center of every genocide in history. And its a very subtle process. It is about moving a group of people because were hard wired to not be able to hurt each other. We are hard wired neurobiologically to not be able to kill, and hurt ieeach other. We have to move people out of moral inclusion. We have to move them out of what we see as humanity and you know where that starts . Consistently, it starts with language and if you go on twitter today or facebook or any social, we see people on the left and right using dehumanizing language about each other like that. And it is terrifying. And i think in the end it cant be are you conservative or liberal right or left. Are you dehumanizing or are you not . Its so easy to all get along but were not. So if you could say one sentence on what ke could do to change it and i know its more than one sentence, but your ear a good talker. Give us a good sen stanctence. The thing that moves away faster than anything else is not politics but fear. I could talk to you all day. Thank you so much for being here. Braving the wilderness is on sale now.
