Reporter across california local public Health Officials have called the new cdc recommendations anything from bazaar to appalling. A steady stream of people walking up to the testing site are anxious to know whether they have been exposed to covid 19. But, in a dramatic change, new guidelines from the cdc are raising questions about who should be tested. The federal government is no longer recommending testing for people who show no symptoms but were within six feet of a positive case. Local health defectors directors were blown away. When i heard about the change i didnt believe it because it seemed entirely bizarre. It undercuts are very basic tenants of how we control and infectious disease. Governor gavin newsom says federal testing policy will not change how things are done in the golden state. We will not be influenced by the change, we are influenced by experts in the field that feel differently with some respect to the cdc, that is not the policy guideline that we will embrace or adopt the state of california.

How are folks in this region getting ready for this . Reporter good evening, people who are getting ready are up against the clock. We are hours away from the severe weather, right now is what you would call the calm before the storm but the reality is that so many people that was a warning from authorities that some areas could experience wind speeds the picture you just showed, the perfect picture is scaling right now tracking at 150 miles per hour, only seven miles away from a category five hurricane. It is massive, what authorities are calling a master and it is saying on survivable because of the storm surge, it could be up to 20 feet of storm surge and the water, the rain, and the wind of course. That wind can knock down power lines rip off roofs and of course that also means that people may be without power for weeks at a time thats why people are being told to evacuate, leave the area as soon as possible. Really at this point to make a decision. People need to stay put at this point so they are not driving or out in general as the storm approaches. Its very complicated. The governor went on to say that the storm surge could be on survivable as well soar folks heeding the warning . What can they do . Heres the thing, not only is it on survivable but they are saying theyre not going to come and rescue. There is a blackout. Between about 7 00 p. M. Tonight local time and 9 00 a. M. Local time where they will not come to rescue you even if you call 911 so that is why it is so important to evacuate out of the area. It is why they are saying from now on there on their own. Anyone staying behind is going to be riding out the storm on their own, after that they will start preparing for search and rescue operations because that is what they expect from a storm this massive. It has not hit this area specifically the border between texas and louisiana ever, this area is used to a lot of the storms like harvey, ike, rita, but this is different. This comes with force and is expected to move inland fairly quickly in the next couple of hours. On top of all of this, there is a pandemic which is complicating the issues. All right, thank you so much. This thing is massive, you have covered hurricanes before, the storm surge, is that the biggest concern here . Its the immediate concern. Windsor going to do damage around the vicinity, strongest winds in the wall which is the area surrounding the calm at the center of the storm. This is an impressive looking satellite perspective. The more symmetrical a hurricane looks the stronger it is, the more it has its act together, 150 mileperhour sustained winds. It is moving, Hurricane Harvey stalled out over texas and backed up a little bit, this is going to continue progressing but it will be a rough ride. The radar you can clearly see the ice surrounding very heavy rainfall and intense wind. In the orange shaded area, 150 mileperhour sustained winds and gusts will be to 175 180 miles per hour. Taking it directly toward lake charles louisiana putting them on the side where you dont want to be maintaining strength around 11 00 our time tonight. It does move inland quickly and as it interact with land, slowing down the wind speeds. Then it becomes posttropical for the next couple of days. In terms of the storm surge. Lets zoom in for a closer look. All of these areas will get at least 12 feet so over the height of a onestory house is the wall of water moving inland, some places 20 feet. This is an entire stretch of land for the elevation is about 5 to 10 feet above sea level. 30 or 40 miles inland, for us we still have to contend with smoke keeping an eye on hurricane laura fogg will be the issue tonight which helps us out in terms of pushing humidity further inland still areas of smoke and haze. Clouds than the hazy sunshine breaks through and filters through. Gradually gets a little thinner it continues through the end of the workweek. Continue to provide some support to the fire crews, the further inland to come the lower gets. 25 to 35 percent is acceptable. Not that low, still some moisture in the atmosphere. The onshore breeze is not going to be a strong tomorrow meaning the fog will backup to a greater extent than it did today, still fogged in around the bay but the onshore breeze is a consistent direction that delivers a bit of additional moisture to the vicinity of the fires. This layer is locked in place right now. Temperatures at 57 degrees, only 62 in oakland only in the 70s, a few spots did manage to crack 80 degrees, tomorrow is the fog retreats we should see temperatures warming up a little bit more. Tomorrow morning in the mid to upper 50s in most locations warming up to close to what is normal for this time of year into the 60s in the city, 70s on the east side of the bay upper 80s to around 90 degrees for the inland east bay, temperatures on friday warm up a little bit more, then we hover around what is normal for the weekend and a bit of a warm up around the bay by tuesday and wednesday as the winds shift to an offshore direction.
