again, earlier as, i was coming in, there were sheets of rain as i was watching, and then there were concerns from the drivers coming into work they wouldn't even be able to get us into work because the weather was so bad. and the flood warnings as well. this is really -- this is tough stuff. and imagine what they dealt with down south, right? we're getting just the remnants of that. but imagine what they've dealt with in louisiana and mississippi and so on. >> so we've talked about this being a historic storm, one we've not seen as far as how slow it's moving, maintaining that strength across southern louisiana for almost six hours and of course now it pushes across the northeast. the impacts are going to be far greater even if the storm doesn't have the same ferocity when it comes to winds. water rescues are taking place
