Supplies. And today Governor Desantis activated 2500 members of the National Guard and cnn correspondents are every angle. Lets get started with tom sater. This looks like a very powerful storm that could unleash a lot of fury on the gulf coast, something we havent seen so far during this hurricane season. And it sounds like people need to wake up and Pay Attention. Everywhere from pensacola to ft. Myers. We didnt haven would named storm for the entire month of august and now we have four of them. If it wasnt for ian, wed be talking about fiona, massive damage up in canada. Notice how wide it is, the sun is out here and getting the reflection, but you can see the circulation. There is the yucatan. But the infrared Satellite Imagery is a mess. It doesnt look impressive at all. At 8 00 a. M. This morning, Hurricane Hunters had a hard time finding the center. They did find it. It can jump around a little bit. And if that center jumps around, it will change the track. And that is important because that is about evacuations and who will go where. Well, another Hurricane Hunter getting ready to fly in and around it, well get more information. But here is what we do know. The warmest waters right now in the entire atlantic are here. South of cuba, cayman islands. Were within 3300 miles. And so we expect it to become a hurricane either later this evening overnight, but it will be soon, and then it will feed on these warm waters and environment with light winds and as it heads towards western cuba, could be a category 3. These are surface winds and the storm surge wrapping around these bands, it will smash into that Southern Coast of cuba possibly 10, 12, 14 foot storm surge. Models mean everything and they have been fluctuating. Yesterdays models wanted to bring it in, curve it in from tampa or southward. Today is mainly up toward the panhandle. So what the National Hurricane center is doing is pretty much compromising and this is your cone of uncertainty. Anyone within this cone needs to be on the alert. Category 1, category 3, that is western cuba, to category 4. Major hurricane status. Even though the track calls it to weaken to maybe a cat 2 or 1, well be finding that even though it is the winds that are lightening, once it is a category 4, it is all that water will shove right into any community on this flank here. So dont Pay Attention to what the category is when it comes closer. The last one was michael, that was a category 5, we know the destruction with that. But again, trying to get a handle on the models. Notice burgundy, that is in the big bend area. So if were going to have it, lets have it there. Worst case a theirscenario is t. It would be down toward bradenton or sarasota, it could be a mess. So big discrepancies still, but this will be the first hurricane to really make landfall in the mainland u. S. We have a Couple Scenarios and well have to watch them all for the next couple days. But it wont take much longer. Glad youre on top of it. And i want to go to Carlos Suarez in tampa. Tom was mentioning where you are, the city is in the storms path potentially and one forecast model. Are they preparing at this point, maybe they are so battle hardened i suppose that they wait a little longer until it gets closer, but i suppose they need to start getting ready. Reporter yeah, thats right. Folks across the state of florida, they are really keeping a close eye on the latest track. Yesterdays forecast had the storm moving a bit further west of tampa here, but then this mornings forecast had it moving a little bit closer east. And so that has left a large number of folks across much of the state getting ready for some sort of impact with regards to ian. Now, here in tampa, city officials have opened three sand Distribution Sites and they have left open the possibility that they might issue an Evacuation Order down in the florida keys, Monroe County officials there, they have postponed they have not decided whether or not that they will ultimately ask visitors to leave the state at the earliest on monday or tuesday. Now, Florida Governor ron desantis, he said that 2500 members of the florida National Guard have been put on standby and hes already declared the entire state of florida under a state of emergency. He is just urging folks across florida to use the time now to get prepared ahead of ian. It is important to express the degree of uncertainty. There are different tracks. And even if you are not necessarily right in the path of the storm, there will be pretty broad impacts throughout the state. You will have riwind, water, the could be flooding on the east coast of florida as a result of this. It is a big storm. Reporter so all of the state resources as well as power crews exactly where they will be deployed will depend on exactly where ian makes landfall. Jim. Carlos, thank you. And ian will also likely hit western cuba as a major hurricane and Patrick Oppmann is in havana for us. Doesnt look too worrisome at this point, but you know these storms all too well. What are officials telling residents at this point . Reporter right now they are telling people to keep a close eye on the storms trajectory and prepare to evacuate. Certainly people who live on the coast, you were just hearing about that storm surge that they could be facing, there are so many people who live down near the ocean. And they will have to be moved back. Even in havana where you get tremendous flooding with a typical rainstorm, to have any kind of hurricane transparency type rain, that can cause massive flooding, that can cause buildings. And in cities that are poorly maintained as this one, to come collapsing down. So even if the storm doesnt hit in havana, it will affect western cuba and that could lead to buildings collapsing here in a city that is over 500 years old. And of course in the stores there is not much to buy on a good day here. No home depot to buy plywood. The economic pain cubans are already feeling will only be made worse by this storm. It will be hard to evacuate when there is so little transportation and already lines for gasoline and diesel. So people have been saying that they were praying there wont be a hurricane this summer. That is not going to be the case. This hurricane is going to have some kind of impact on cuba. Just remains to be seen how badly. But certainly in terms of the economy, it will make a bad situation that much worse. Yeah, life has been difficult for cubans for so long. And obviously this could just make things so much more troublesome. Patrick, thank you. Thanks for all our correspondents. And ken graham is joining me, Assistant Administrator for Weather Services with tnoaa. Are we seeing some of the bigger st storms now because of the Climate Crisis . Yeah, big picture, you look at these storms and a changing climate, one of the biggest indicators that we see is high rainfall rates. And so the actual rainfall is a leading cause of fatalities in these systems, the rain. And so you have to remember, you know, we think about the wind. When you close your eyes and think of a hurricane, you think about the wind, but it is the water that really is hurting people and that is what we really need to talk about. And it is increasing with climate change. And these storms when they get into the gulf, that water is so warm that it just super charges these storms and weve seen it time and again. When were looking at Tropical Storm ian, it looks like it will be and i dont know if we can share the modeling on the screen One More Time, it looks like it will be a 4 and then potentially weakening to a 2 or 1 before it hits the state of florida. That is obviously no reason for people to take their guard down, but id think in many of these cases you would see a storm get Even Stronger because of those warm gulf waters. What concerns you when you look at this right now . Really what concerns me with that is the perception. To go from a category 4 to a category 2, a lot of times what we do is let our guard down, so it is the physical science we talk about, but also the Social Science of this. And what happens is that wind field expands. So you can actually have more people impacted by a storm when it expands like that. So people cant let their guard down despite the category. Incredibly important to remember that. And tom was mentioning that, dont look at the number and think that you are off the hook here. Not the case. And today that officials said that ian could still produce category 4 storm surge. I mean, that could be devastating. Absolutely. And it is interesting because a category 2 that is large can produce more storm surge than a stronger storm that is small. So storm surge has so much do when you look at the science the size of the storm, spthe speed the storm. It is much more than just the category. So that is something to remember if you are on the coast, youve got to be prepared. You have another couple days to be prepared and listen to the local officials. And are you worried a bit that folks have been lulled into a false sense of security because it has been a Quiet Storm Season so far . Because the way things are changing, we could be in for a nasty one. Yeah, look at what happened in puerto rico. You look at canada, fiona and impacts there. Even the storm in alaska. So things are very active right now. You cant let your guard down. We always say it only takes one. So even though it is a late start, it doesnt matter, it only takes one to have some big impacts. We were covering fiona last week and just how quickly things can go downhill. And even just a category 1 hurricane can have devastating impact. And as florida prepares, officials there say that the residents should be ready to evacuate, you know, if they give the word. But many florida residents as you know, youve looked at these storms for so many years, i used to cover hurricanes down there, and, you know, floridians will tell you, oh, i can can make it through any storm. But when you look at ian and the way things are shaping up, people really need to get ready, they need to have a plan. Isnt that big part of this, that you have to hold out the possibility that this storm might be more than what you can handle . And different from past experience. So many people judged the current storm with what they have experienced in the past and the reality is every storm is completely different. So it is about having supplies, it is getting ready. Youve got two full days that you will start seeing the winds get into portions of florida wednesday and wednesday night. So you have two days to get ready, have supplies for 5 to 7 days. Medicine, food, water. You got to take it serious. You cant really think about your preparedness looking at the past. You have to think of the current and listen to the local officials as the storm heads toward florida. And if you have relatives inland, a few hours north in georgia or somewhere else in the southeast, start calling those relatives now. You may need to shack up with them for a few days. Ken, thank you very much. Impending storm is also impacting space. Nasa scrapped its third Launch Attempt of artemis 1. Will it ever get to space .

[zoom call]. Pivot. Work bye. Vacation hi book with priceline. cause when you save more, you can no way more. No wayyyy. No waaayyy no way [phone ringing] hm. No way no way priceline. Every trip is a big deal. It sounds like the plot of a scifi thriller, Saving The World from an astroid hurdling toward hurt. But dont worry, it is only a practice run. Nasa will test whether it can knock an astroid off its path. It will crash a spacecraft into it. And i want to bring in kneel Gee Gr De Grasse [ kneel defwragrass tyson. They have tried it in the movies and i think there was a part of dont look up, i believe that is another cultural reference we could make here. Is this a good idea . After i saw dont look up, i was certainly it was a Document It Area based on my life experience. So i think that it is one of the best ideas ever put into a Space Mission because built into it is the future security and safety of our species. And of course other species on earth. So the day an astroid is discovered headed towards us, you want to know that somebody has tested what it would take to deflect it. And by the way, all this talk about lets blow it out of the sky, you know, in america were good at blowing stuff up and less good at knowing where the pieces go afterwards. So deflecting an astroid is by far the most intelligent thing do. So this is a test for that. Do we have anything that is big enough to blow up an as astroid . I hope maybe crashing something into it might be the most feasible alternative. But how real of a threat is this . Let me make it clear, this is called the Double Astroid Redirect test. And what were doing here, being nasa, we the United States, is there is an astroid that has a little astroid moon, i guess we call it a moonlet. And it is orbiting that astroid. And all were going to do is crash into the moonlet and see what it does to the orbit of that moonlet around this astroid. So it is not like this is headed towards us right now and that well deflect it to Save Humanity. Bruce willis style. No, it is a test. That would be a slightly bigger story today if we were indeed trying to Save Humanity from a killer astroid. You think . I would hope so. I cant promise you that, but i would hope so. Let me move to artemis because im starting to wonder whether or not this mission, you know, was born under a bad sign or Something Like this. The third Launch Attempt of artemis 1 was set for tuesday, but nasa has since called it off because of hurricane ian, which obviously makes a lot of sense. Nasa will evaluate whether to roll back the Space Launch System to the ken nedy space center. Are you frustrated by this, i guess they are showing the appropriate amount of caution. And why do you think this is so important this mission . So a couple things. First, it has been 50 years since weve last been to the moon. So i can wait a few weeks. 24 i this is not a problem. And im glad that we have enough data on the launch specs to know when to scrub a mission and delay it and when not to. And of course a hurricane, florida is no stranger to hurricanes, so this is just another you know, of course, you will delay it. And by the way, there are no astronauts on this mission to the moon. It is basically a test what have is now the most powerful rocket on earth. And in case people didnt know, this artemis program, artemis is the twin sister of apollo. So that was a classy thing do i thought there just as a reminder that there are more genders in the world than men with crew cuts who sound like mission control. A whole lot of people we can send into space. And i think there is another one that is also uncrewed, and i think that it is the third one that will have a crew that will go. So were looking forward to this. It has been a while. I guess im just impatient, i want to see it happen. But of course we have to do safely. And ive been wanting to get your take about the Webb Telescope and these incredible images coming in, i wonder what you think of them because youve been studying this for so long. And i guess does this blow you away . I mean, this week we got these images of neptune and its rings. This is the first time rings have been seen in infrared. Are you just again, are you just blown away by this, do you get blown away by anything and is this one of those things . We should all get our minds blown at least once a day. I can tell you this, that there are so many contingent things that had to work to get the Webb Telescope out there is a million miles from earth. This thing was folded up into the faring of the rocket because we said how do we get a telescope bigger than the size of the faring itself. And an engineer said we have an idea, lets create a foldable rocket. More like the petals of a flower, right . And they fold it up, send it out unfurl it, and there it is parked a million miles away from earth opposite the sun and everything worked as planned. And so i think were all shocked that it met the specs to exactly what we wanted to do and that was enough to just freak us all out. The high resolution, the fact that it is a bandwidth that lets you see things differently, that image of neptune, that is what it looks like if we had infrared eyeballs. So this idea that everything that is the world, that the world is or should be is visible to our eyes, weve known as astrophysicists long ago that so many of the universe is happening and comes to us in bands of light that are outside the visible spectrum. And that is why you need telescopes and detectors and engineers right alongside to help us make those measurements. Yeah, gadgets and gizmos are important. And before i let you go, i have to get your reaction to the u. S. Space forces original song that was released this week. Lets play a snippet and get your thoughts. Into space there is an image in the sky sending Night And Day the space force actually, that is the first ive heard it, but it sounds very 1950s, you know. Kind of like what youd sing when the channels went off the air at midnight. But i kind of like it. I kind of like it too. And, you know, i guess folks might be in this age of trolling and so on social media, folks might be tempted to take a shot at it, but i think it sounds very patriotic and there are some really great people who work at the space force, flight so why not have a fight song. Will they have a football team, that is the question that i have. And what is funny, or curious, is that the other branches of the Armed Forces Songs tend to be songs that you would march to. You feel that urge to get up and march. But space force, you want to be able to feel like you want to launch something. And i didnt feel launchy with those lyrics or with the rhythms, but maybe if you watch a Rocket Launch while you hear it, that will reset how we think about the mood we should attain as we listen. Absolutely. And were playing the music right now as you are speaking. And what you are saying sounds so much better with that music playing behind you. So there must be something to it. I told you.

Ukraines military says its forces have driven back russian attacks in four areas near the frontline east of kramatorsk. That is not all, the Ukrainian Military also says it successfully hit 10 russian weapon and military targets in zaporizhzhia region. President zelenskyy is calling on newly drafted russians to help ukraine and sabotage russias war efforts. Ben wedeman has more on zelenskyys appeal. Reporter as russias socalled partial mobilization gathers pace and runs into some resistance, president Volodymyr Zelenskyy is calling upon those who are summoned to serve to do everything they can to sabotage the kremlins war effort. This his nightly address he called upon russian soldiers in ukraine to sabotage and interfere with military operations, pass information to ukrainian intelligence, and to defect at the first opportunity. Zelenskyy pledged that those who surrender will be treated in his words in a civilized manner. And if they so desire will not be returned to russia in the event of the prisoner exchange. Meanwhile russia is accusing ukrainian force of shelling near the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear power plant, the biggest Nuclear Power plant in europe, and currently under russian control. Ukraine has yet to respond to the russian allegations. Im ben wedeman, cnn, reporting from kharkiv. And joining me now is Ukrainian Army sergeant who just came from fighting in the kharkiv counteroffensive. Thank you so much for being with us. It is an honor to be here. And ukraine has been making a lot of progress in taking on the russians, especially in recent weeks. It has been really impressive to everybody around the world. What can you tell us about the situation on the ground, does it feel like you are making a lot of progress . Yes, we have progress with kharkiv counteroffensive, but it cost a lot of losses and limitations. So during liberating our lands, we saw mass grave of people, we saw tortured people and the picture is not so positive. That is why our delegation is here to ask and to say thanks to express our gratitude to the United Nations for Suchlts Ukr Support of ukraine. And while back here in washington, it is easy for us to say things are going so well for ukraines because of the way you are handling the russians right now, but at the same time as you were just saying your forces are on the ground and you are finding evidence of atrocities. What has that been like when you see signs of torture and Human Rights Abuses as you are on the ground encountering this . You know these are your fellow countrymen. Yes, during liberating of our lands, we understand that we are fighting for three priceless things, life, homeland and freedom. That is why we pay such huge prices for our freedom, for protection of our homeland, and we pay this by our lives. So it is critical moment now in ukraine to liberate other lands because people are their hostages and that is why were asking United States to provide ukraine with Hornemodern Weapond give us a chance to liberate these people. Because they are hostages. And civilians that are surviving on the occupied territory. They must be freed. And i know youve been trying to deliver this message to members of congress. And youve been bringing this coin along with you, what you brought to us to share with us. Tell us about this coin. Takes very special coin. Yes, a Bipartisan Group of congr congressmen, i explained that this is a coin made from destroyed russian tanks during counteroffensive. Lets hold it out here. There we go. Like this is a part of russian tanks. That is part of a russian tank. So your forces destroyed a tank. And then lets hold it up One More Time. You destroyed the russian tank. And then you essentially harvested the metal from the tank and made a coin out of it. And we presented these coins to your senators and to your congressmen. And i said during the presentation of this coin that i saved this coin just for me because i want to become an operator of modern tank. I am an operator of u. S. Weapons like stingrays, but we need more. We need counter defensive, we need tank, we need fighter jets just to liberate and protect our civilians and our homeland. And do you feel like you are getting obviously from the Point Of View from the american government, from the white houses Point Of View, they are saying that were providing ukraine with as much weaponry as we possibly can. There are concerns inside the administration if they step up that assistance too much, that it could be a provocative move and provoke the russians into a situation that the u. S. And its allies dont want. Do you feel like i guess i have a couple questions. Do you feel like you do have enough assistance coming in right now, are you concerned that it is going to run out, and what do you say to those worries that, well, if we give them too much assistance, if we provide them with too much firepower, advanced weaponry, that it could provoke the russians into a larger conflict . I know that is a lot to ask. So, first one, it is that we need more. More weaponry. Just to liberate and protect our country. Because russia understands only like actions. Strong actions. Congressmen and senators, the answer is we support ukraine, but we believe courage is to act. And russia will be provoked, so i can say that russia is state of sponsor of terrorism. I saw with my eyes how russians used cluster bombs, cannon ball bombs, that is why we need the strongest answer of the west will be providing ukraine with modern weaponry that will help us to gain victory faster. Beinokay. And what do you think about the russians fleeing because they are being mobilized to go fight against ukraine . Okay. I have what do you think of that . I have an answer for russians. Welcome to what you make in ukraine. We welcome you to the hell were living. Welcome to hell. All right. Show that coin One More Time if we can. Can i hold it just a second . Ill give it back, i promise. I just present this had coin to you. No, you did not. And you will have the coin from counteroffensive. That means so much to me. I can think of so many more people who should have this. Weve been covering ukraine so much and to see the bravery and courage that you and your fellow soldiers have been putting on display, it has been inspiring here in the United States. Thank you so much for this. An honor to be here. Thank you so much. I will treasure this always. Thank you.

Rupert murdoch has built one of the largest Media Empires in history and now the new cnn original series reveals through exclusive reporting how one familys ambitions are shaping business, media and Politics Around the globe. Here is a preview. New york city in the 1970s was about as unglamorous as a place could possibly be. And yet despite all of its problems, it still remains the Media Capital of the country. And maybe even the entire world. And that is exactly where Rupert Murdoch wants to be. Rupert lands in new york and looking for opportunities to build his empire. Rupert murdoch decided that he was going to put his stamp on the city of new york. Here i am. You better pay some attention. And im going to have one hell of an impact. And joining us now is the man you saw in that clip, jonathan mahler, a staff writer for the New York Times and consulting producer which features his exclusive reporting. Jonathan, thanks so much. Very important topic. Rupert murdoch is obviously an intensely controversial figure in american media, also has had a toxic effect on American Politics. What did you i guess come away as your largest takeaway in all of this, what do you hope viewers will take away from the series . Well, i think what is unique about this series is that it really gives you the full sweep of Rupert Murdochs life and career across the continents, across the decades, across the media really. From newspapers to television to the internet. And so, you know, by doing that, gifing you this kind of sweeping look at his life and career, i think that it gives you sort of a real sense of just how much of an impact hes had. I think without question he is the most influential media mogul certainly of, you know, any generation in many generations really. And i know you are not sanitizing this either. I mean, a lot of people make these comparisons with the tv show succession which is owned by Warner Brothers discovery. But is that the reality, does that sugarcoat things . I mean, are we going to see how this family has had this at many times very negative effect on american media, on American Politics . Yeah, i mean, there is no question that in particular with the rise of fox news and truly in the kind of merging of fox news and the trump presidency, you know, you get to see, you know, The Dark Side of that influence for sure. And we mention succession. Were all familiar with succession. And i think you also will learn from this series the real story of the family which in many ways does resemble the succession story. Not in every way, but there is no question there is a lot of overlap there. Right, im sure. And murdoch was a late but strong supporter of donald trump back in 2016, i remember covering trump at his golf course in scotland and Rupert Murdoch showed up out of nowhere and it was one of the more up for for unforgettable moments of the campaign. And fox as you were mentioning was the house organ of the trump white house. And then january 6 happened and i have to wonder, has murdoch learned his lesson do you think and what lessons can be drawn from that moment . I would say you mentioned scotland and youre right, i mean that was an iconic moment when murdoch climbed on the back of a golf cart with donald trump. You know, in terms of Rupert Learning his lessons, the problem is that rupert is driven by at this point by fox news has an audience and that audience is the republican base. And rupert will give that base and that audience what they want. And so no reason to expect that he will turn his back on donald trump if donald trump is happens to be the nominee in 2024. He has spent kind of a lifetime as a businessman. And a businessman and accumulator of power. And so for him to sort of turn his back on a person who can deliver ratings and also deliver power, to rupert it would make no sense. Right. It would be out of character which is what weve seen up until this point. Jonathan mahler, thank you very much. Looking forward to the series. It looks like very important work.
