Legendary Journalist Bob Woodward is how john kelly describes life inside trumps white house. Kelly painting a damning portrait of the west wing and the man occupying the oval office. Cnn obtained a copy of the book yet to be released titled fear. And what is described in the 448 pages, well, i said it last night, ill say it again, theres a lot. Top aides spending their day trying to circumvent the president ignoring orders, hiding information, even swiping documents from the president s desk and that is really just the tip of the iceberg. According to the deeply sourced book, kelly goes to goes on to describe trump as an idiot, unhinged, and off the rails. Defense secretary james manus describing the president as having the understanding of a fifth or sixth grader. Trumps personal lawyer john doud describes the president as an fing liar and they describe the president as obsessed with the media. It may explain why the president sought out a website to do damage control. His statements predictable saying it may have come from disgruntled employees or just made up. Adding, also, its just another bad book. Woodward had a lot of credibility problems. Heres the thing about that one. When it comes to woodward, history has shown he has credibility and not only that, there are tapes. President trump said himself on the record on tape in early august that woodward is fair. Heres a portion of a phone call between the two men. I think youve always been fair. Yeah, youve always been fair, trump says. Cnns also reporting at least a dozen former and Current White House officials confirm they spoke to woodward for his book. As to woodward his response to his attack, five words, i stand by my reporting. Jamie is out front live in washington with us tonight. Jamie, you have read the entire book. You were able to get an early copy of this. One of the more remarkable i guess themes emerging, jamie, is just how much the president s closest and senior aides distrust the president. Theres no question. Weve been hearing about chaos and dysfunction. The difference with Bob Woodwards book is the level of detail and that this comes from the people who are closest to him, from his inner circle. The book opens with just a dramatic scene where former chief Economic Advisor Garrett Cohen sees a draft letter on the oval office desk. He realizes that it shouldnt be there and he says, according to woodward, quote, that he was appalled because he felt that if the president signed this letter, it was a danger to National Security. So he goes in, he goes over to the desk, he steals it and he says, woodward reports, got to protect the country. What you see are and its not just gary cohen, rob porter, others. And they say it was done with the acquiescence of former chief of staff reince priebus. There is a pattern in this book of these people around the white house, i would describe it that they think of themselves as the thin little line protecting the country, kate. You also have new reporting this evening, jamie, about another scene described in the book and its really the first time these very confidential talks between the president s attorneys and Robert Mueller, that theyre being revealed. The president s lawyer then lawyer, john dauowd, he was convinced that trump would personal ger h perjure himself. They did a mock interview. Trump failed and in the book he described trump as a quote, fing liar and he would end up in an orange jump suit if he testified. Doud then goes to mueller and what happened and how crucial is this moment . The quote in this book that the president would end up in an orange jump suit, woodward reports that john doud actually said that directly to the president. He didnt say the bleeping liar to him. Woodward reports thats what he was thinking but couldnt say, but hes so convinced that the president is incapable of telling the truth, according to woodwards book, that he and another attorney, present personal attorney jay sekulosek they go to the president s office, this is unprecedented behind the scenes, the word we use about mueller in the investigation is secretive. Weve never seen this. They go to the office and in an attempt to try to convince mueller that hes got to let trump out of this interview or do an interview where the president gets to answer all the questions ahead of time in a script, they reenact the mock interview that john doud did in the white house. And john doud plays Robert Mueller and jay sekulow plays President Trump and they go back and forth and try to show mueller that the president is simply incapable of telling the truth and woodward reports that at the end they say, you see, this is this is what will happen. We just cant let him testify. So the white house is calling these fabricated stories. Now at least in my count doud, john kelly, james mattis and now giuliani i think this evening have all issued statements in some way denying some of the reporting in the book. I mean, you know bob woodward well and the quality of his reporting. What do you make of that . So i would say a couple of things. I actually thought that the chief of staff kellys push back was fascinating because he said, i didnt call him an idiot, but in the book woodward also says that kelly calls him unhinged, erratic, and that hes worried about, quote, dangerous impulses. So the only one that he was denying for some reason was the word idiot, but to bob woodward, bob woodward is a legendary investigative journalist. He is a twotime Pulitzer Prize winner. He interviewed dozens of sources, all firsthand people who have been in the room with trump, and when you read the book what you will see is that theyre all quoted extensively. And why are they quoted extensively . Bob woodward did hundreds of hours of taped interviews with his sources. He is known for his credibility and in the past when hes been questioned, you know, theres the great denial that happens when a book comes out and people dont like the way theyve been quoted, but then its proven that it was accurate. All coming back to tapes, jamie. Thats right. Its all coming back to the tapes. Right. Jamie, stick around. I want to add to the conversation right now, john dean is here and eliana johnson, a correspondent for politico. John, ive got many questions, but an attorney to the president warning him that he cant testify because hes going to person perjure himself and the president s attorneys accusing the president of lying to them, does this sound familiar at all . A little bit, but not totally. One thing, Richard Nixon was very competent at all times. Were getting out of this report a lot of incompetence. Trump is lies about everything. Nixon only about big things. Nixon did not report to his lawyers, did not keep his lawyers informed and his final lawyer, indeed, had to go back up to the house impeachment inquiry and confess that he had been misled by his client, which is not good. Which is not good. Yes. No truer words have been spoken there, john. And in his words to his readers in the book he says, President Trump declined to be interviewed for this book, and that is an issue that the president raised with woodward in this phone call that we played you a portion of earlier. Let me play a bit more for our viewers. Who did you ask about speaking to me . Well, about six people. You know they dont tell me. Senator, i talked to kellyanne about it two and a half months ago. Who were the senators . They never called me about it. Senator graham said he had talked to you about talking to me. Now is that not true . Senator graham actually mentioned it quickly on one meeting. Now follow me here. Again, i feel like i have to say this every night. This is quite a bizarre thing that ends up playing out. He says he was never told about any interview. He contradicts himself and acknowledges he was then told and then kellyanne, he actually puts kellyanne on the phone with bob woodward who then admits to bob woodward that he did put in a request through her and others to get an interview and she said the request was rejected. I mean, what is going on here . You know, kate, if theres one thing we know, its that trump is a master of getting his message out to the media, and i spoke to a former white house official today who said that he finds it impossible to believe that the request to interview trump from woodward was not conveyed to the president and believes the president simply didnt want to talk to woodward. So i think its convenient that trump ultimately reached out to woodward when it was too late to speak to him on the record for his book but did get the message out, gee, i wanted to talk to you. So sorry i got to you after the deadline. I think thats a message trump wanted the readers of woodwards book to hear and he spoke very calmly. Admitted that Lindsey Graham did convey the message. Ultimately if the president did want to talk to bob woodward about this book, he would have. I think thats the take away from that conversation. Maybe fits him into the category of the staff trying to protect the president from himself. John, as jamie mentioned earlier, the book opens with this dramatic scene she describes painting a picture of the staff thinking the president is a danger to himself, the country, hes a National Security risk. What gary cohen said according to woodward about how woodward describes in the book about stealing the document off the president s desk is this. I wouldnt let him see it. Hes never going to see that document. Got to protect the country. A country that needs protecting from its own president , can you see this happening . Its a great title, fear, because thats what this presidency causes for a lot of people who understand the presidency like myself. He gives me a knot in my stomach because i know he doesnt have a clue what hes doing and he has ever since election night. Isnt that so theyre acting wisely. Was that a consideration . Was that ever in nixons time, to start swiping documents from his desk . No. I know staff at times moderated and fill ttered what he was say, but never took any documents. Eliana, according to woodward, the white house is described as crazytown by john kelly. He also describes the president as an idiot and unhinged as weve talked about. They have had a touch and go relationship. What do you think the impact of this book is going to be on that . You know, kelly worked to tamp down speculation about his departure, which really had been rampant, by announcing to white house aides that he had agreed to stay on at the white house through 2020. Right. I think very few people in the white house really believed that. We know that the beginning of the end for Rex Tillerson was the news that he had called trump an expletive moron. Trump disavowed publicly steve bannon on the news of what he had told michael wolf for his book and so i think it would not be surprising if kellys tenure was cut short by word of what he has reportedly told bob woodward in this account. And we heard the president telling bob woodward over the phone, youve always been fair. I trust you. So on. So i think woodwards book carries more force with this president than perhaps some of the others. Yeah. Jamie, can you just put this book in perspective here. What do you think the full impact of this really could be . I mean, is this just another bad book as the president is putting in interviews now . I dont think so because of Bob Woodwards credibility. He describes the book in the book he uses a phrase that it was the nervous breakdown of an american presidency that he was seeing, but just to step back. What do we want a president to do . We want them to be able to manage a crisis when we have one. Throughout this book there is one theme, and that is the sense that as woodward reports, the top aides around him dont think that this president has what it takes to manage a crisis. Jamie, thank you so much. Really appreciate your reporting. Great to see you. John, eliana, thank you so much. Appreciate it. Out front next, well have more on the offensive comment President Trump is said to have hurled at attorney general Jeff Sessions. Yes, another one. Plus, a fiery start to the confirmation hearings for the president s pick. That is unprecedented. That is not regular order. That is senator macy horona. She is my guest.

Only when you book with expedia. The ultimate betrayal. That is how President Trump viewed attorney general Jeff Sessions refusal to recuse himself. He said sessions was, quote, a trader and with former staff secretary rob porter trump feigned a southern accent and said this of sessions. Hes a dumb southerner. Republicans far unhappy. Manu raju is out front. What are you hearing from republicans on this . Reporter i can tell you, kate, a lot of them are not happy. Theyre very concerned the president crossed the line by these apparent comments he made in private and this coming after months of going after sessions in a very public way because as the attorney generals decision to recuse himself from overseeing the russia investigation. Now senator Johnny Isaacson said he resents those comments. Senator ron johnson told me it was totally inappropriate and senator Lindsey Graham just moments ago told me he was raising concerns that he was very uncomfortable. He thinks bob woodward is a good reporter. Now this comes after that tweet from yesterday where the president attacked sessions for not preventing two republican congressmen for being indicted. When i talked to two other key senators about this they also pushed back. Im appalled by those comments, the president s continuing public humiliation of the attorney general is deeply inappropriate. He doesnt like his service, he can look him in the eye and terminate him. So, you know, whining is pretty unbecoming of a 13yearold but very unbecoming of a 71 or 2 year old president. Now corker went on to say, kate, that the president s tweet from yesterday going after sessions for not preventing those two republican congressmen from being indicted is a sign that this if it were up to the president , frp up to his, quote, own accord, that he could turn this country into venezuela, an authoritarian regime. Strong comments coming from the hill about their former colleague. Appreciate it. Lets talk about it now. Out front a member of the trump 2020 advisory board, rob astorino and joan walsh. Thanks, guys, for being here. First, rob, your reaction what you heard. One republican senator, susan collins, she was calling it appalled, called it humiliating. Is senator collins right to be appalled, what President Trump said about sessions . Lets start with the basics, its alleged, right . Its something bob woodward is putting in his book. We had a previous book that got a lot of attention for two straight weeks that was taken as gospel and some of that was proven to be false. And i do think that obviously some of these, if they were said, theyre not nice. Certainly not nice, and its unbecoming of a president to Say Something like that but, again, if they were said in private, you would hope that people within the white house would keep them private and thats a complete separate issue of how this stuff got in a book if its true. Joan, let me just this just came up so let me read it to you. I want you to react. Donald trump just tweeted about the book. Great. More about the book and he wrote, when it comes to the quotes from mattis, kelly, all the quotes, theyre quotes from made up frauds, a con on the public. Likewise other stories and quotes, woodward is a dem operative. Notice timing he asks. I assume that means on the fly im assuming its meaning is he trying to say this is the actual surprise . Notice timing, he finished the book. I dont know what that means. Weve known about the book for over a month, kate. Weve always had tweets. Theres a tweet from donald trump for every occasion, right . Weve had tweets where he laughs at obama for criticizing woodward and says woodward has the goods and says woodward is a good reporter or writer. I dont know, rob, how you can impeach him on this. People have problems with his methodology. But people dont come out and call him to be a liar. We have other people this is not the first time that donald trump is said to have called his own attorney general a dumb southerner and, you know, i think every democrat running in the south should put this on a billboard, that donald trump thinks youre all dumb southerners, that he would use that. Lets not get into the fact that he used the r word that is a disgusting epithet that decent people dont use anymore. Im not shocked but its all a little more disgusting than yesterday. Lindsey graham was asked and he said, you know, this doesnt look good for folks in the south if this is what youre saying i mean, should he be concerned . First of all, i think 90 of the democrats who hate donald trump are not going to change their opinion. The 90 of republicans who agree with what the president is doing are not going to change their opinions. Down to 78 in the last poll. That will go back up. I dont know. But heres whats happening with the country. People understand what they voted for with donald trump because we had the bush tapes, all those things that came out before the election. So nothing that comes out no matter how horrible it is or how horrible this isnt shocking, i dont think . You dont think this is shocking . This is par for the course of what weve seen by a book, a press, people leaking things. I dont think people are going to be shocked. I just dont think so. First of all youre not shocked that he fails a mock interview, he yeah. Lied to his attorney. First of all, ive said this many times, there is no way he should be sitting down with bob mueller. And now we know that he wont. For any reason. Any reason. Because you can fall on to a trap and be perjuring yourself when you are in fact telling your side of the story, which is true. And if theres contradictory evidence or corroboration from someone else, its two peoples opinions. But can i ask you just about how the president describes people according to bob woodward in this book. I mean, its from you just the way you described Jeff Sessions and even Rudy Giuliani he went after. This is shocking. Rudy giuliani goes out and defends the president the weekend of the access Hollywood Tape comes out. After that, according to woodward, trump tears into him and says, rudy, youre a baby. Ive never seen a worse defense of me in my life. They took your diaper off right there. Youre like a little baby that needed to be changed. When are you going to be a man . Giuliani is the one like one of the few people defending the president. He went on five sunday shows. He went on all five sunday shows to defend the president that day. This is not only that, its how he describes reince priebus. Lets start with how he allegedly describes. Sure. We dont know it to be true. You werent in the room. You werent in the room. I wasnt in the room. So were taking this book and were saying its gospel. I guarantee you some of its true but i believe some of its probably not true. There are people within the white house who for their own reasons could say anything that they wanted and what they say and what bob woodward writes down, then he has every right to take their quote and put it in his book whether its true or not. But kate just played whatever i mean, its so amazing. Its to great. He has tape of the president claiming oh, i really wanted to talk to you but then well did Lindsey Graham ask you . Oh, you know what, maybe lindsey did ask me. Kellyanne is there, too. People asked him. He was asked. He didnt want to sit down with woodward. Then he lies to woodward about it and then woodward catches him on tape in the lie. Jeff, i know you were fighting me about this in the break. Would you be answering me differently if you had not signed a nda in your contract with the campaign . No, and cnn wouldnt have hired me if they didnt think i could because in the nine months i have said more things critical of the president than i bet you or other hosts have said. On this we know the president tells has lied. Do you believe bob woodward or do you believe donald trump tonight . I think theres probably truth in both of them. You cant have it that way. Good people on both sides. Could there be exaggerations . Could there be outright lies from people who wanted to enough to fill 448 pages of disclosures. Some of them are true, some of them are not. Were going to be talking about this for a long time. Joan, rob, thank you very much. Thank you, kate. Out front next, Robert Mueller responding to team trump. Could the president soon be answering questions from the special counsel. Plugs, the president S Supreme Court nominee avoids shaking hands with a parkland shooting victim. Why . Hes our guest.

You would not believe how long ive been rehearsing that. No annual fee on any card. Only from discover. New tonight, mob rule. That is how a Top Republican senator is describing todays confirmation hearing for President TrumpS Supreme Court pick, Brett Kavanaugh. Fireworks erupted seriously immediately as the hearing started with protest after protest not just from the audience but also from democrats sitting on the committee. We cannot possibly move forward, mr. Their man. I extend a very warm welcome to Brett Kavanaugh. Mr. Chairman, i agree with my colleague, senator harris. Mr. Chairman, we received 43,000 documents that we havent been able to review last night and we believe this hearing should be postponed. If we cannot be recognized, i move to adjourn. I move to adjourn. Mr. Chairman, i move to adjourn. Id like a clarification. Id like a response why you are requesting us to submit our questions to you. I ask that you stop so we can conduct this hearing the way we have planned it. Democratic senator hirono will be here as my guest. Lets go to phil mattingly. We have seen a lot of contentious hearings but what happened today . It was chaotic, a little bit of a cluster but, kate, it was coordinated. Democrats planned out what they did at the beginning of the hearing over the course of the weekend on a phone call led by democratic leader chuck schumer. What you basically saw was in some ways a cathartic release by some democrats who have been angered by the process. They dont feel like they got access to the documents or the public has had access. Theres a recognition theres not much democrats can do here. They dont have the votes to block them in the committee. They dont have the votes to block him on the floor. This was a form of protest, certainly not a silent one, a very loud one. We talked to republicans today. If theyre focused on the documents, that means they dont have anything else. Well get a pretty Good Opportunity to see if thats the case in the next couple of days. The question and answer period will start tomorrow and democrats have a series of issues they want to drill down on. Whether or not Brett Kavanaugh comes out of that unscathed will be noted. Whether protests, raucous or otherwise, Brett Kavanaugh will be confirmed as a justice for the Supreme Court, kate. That is an Important Note to remember. Great to see you, phil. Out front now, member of the Senate Judiciary committee. Democratic senator hirono. Thank you for coming in. Sure. Aloha. What was the protest all about today . Do you acknowledge it was all a show as republicans said . Its certainly not a show because we have a responsibility to provide advice and consent with what is at stake with this nominee. Clearly a person who is very greatly supported by the Federalist Society and the heritage foundation, right wing organizations that want judge kavanaugh to be the fifth vote on the Supreme Court to provide them with the kind of decisions that will advance their right wing agenda. So it was really important for us to know how important it was for us to get the documents we needed and to go forward in a way that would allow us to really hone in on the kind of questions that we wanted to ask him. But short of that, there are enough other indicators of where judge kavanaugh is going. So many important issues like choice for women, environmental protections. The expansive use he has of president ial power. That all of this will be coming out tomorrow, and i think the American People will find out what a dangerous nominee this person will be as the fifth vote on the Supreme Court. I think i might know the answer to my next question. Youre going to question Brett Kavanaugh tomorrow. Is there any answer that he can give or any document that he could produce that could get you to a yes at this point . Ive already discovered and not just me but a pattern of decisions that he makes that are very much for polluters against the environmental protections that do not support a womans right to choose, that raises questions as to whether or not he will support the Affordable Care act protections for people with preexisting conditions. So hes going to need to show me, and as i mentioned very early on, he bears the burden to show me that he can be the fair, impartial decider. And the more i review his cases, particularly his dissents, the less convinced i am that he will be that impartial nonideologue justice. Also brought up in todays hearing was President Trumps latest attack one of the latest attacks on attorney general Jeff Sessions, his tweet yesterday. Im sure you know it, but what he tweeted is two long running obama era investigations, two very popular republican congressmen were brought to a well publicized charge just ahead of the mid terms by Jeff Sessions justice department. Two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. He says, good job, jeff. Senator, this morning Jeffrey Toobin of cnn, he said that he thinks with that tweet this may be an impeachable offense. Do you think it is . This is why its so important for the Mueller Investigation to continue because i think there are all kinds of indications that the president has engaged in obstruction of justice and this is yet another example also of the president viewing everything through his lens. Everything is about him. People are out to get him. Sessions is out to get him. I think it just shows the paranoia of the president. Paranoia, maybe, but impeachable . Well, this is why the Mueller Investigation has to continue, because i think there is a pattern of obstruction of justice with the firing of comey and all these other tweets that he sends out. So you hold on that opinion until mueller pulls out his report . Id like to do that, yes. Also tonight, senator, were learning that Robert Mueller, speaking of, his team has responded to the president s legal team and their latest proposal over the possibility of interviewing the president. The discussions for a possible president ial interview, they are continuing is what the sources are saying and the focusing theyre focusing more now on an emphasis on written questions for the president. That is the news coming in tonight. Do you think the president should be allowed to give answers in writing or should it all be face to face . Well, im not going to second guess how mueller wants to con duk duct his investigations because as far as im concerned, he has been conducting his investigations in a very thorough manner. So my understanding is even if the president were to respond in writing, that does not preclude the mueller team from requesting that they interview the president directly. And the discussions continue as they have for months and months and months. Senator, thank you for coming in. Look forward to your questioning tomorrow of kavanaugh. Thank you. Out front next, the father of one of the teenagers killed in the park land shooting, he says the president S Supreme Court pick turned his back on him. Ill speak to Fred Guttenberg about that. Plus, homes evacuated, millions evacuated as they prepare for hurricane gordon. Keep those shrimp comin endless shrimp is back at red lobster. With all the shrimp you want, any way you want them.

Grilled and drizzled with savory soyginger sauce and sprinkled with asian seasoning. And dont forget the favorites you love, like garlic shrimp scampi but endless shrimp wont last endlessly, so hurry in. Tonight one moment you may have missed if you werent watching the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearing closely. The father of a parkland shooting victim says kavanaugh refused to shake his hand. Video shows Fred Guttenberg approaching kavanaugh during a break in the action and you can see him reaching out his hand. He appears to see him before walking away. What appears to be going on is up for debate. His daughter was one of 17 killed in parkland, florida, earlier this year. Out front Fred Guttenberg is joining us. How are you . Well. How are you . Youre out there as a guest of dianne feinstein. What were you doing by approaching kavanaugh . So i was there all day, as you said, at the request of senator feinstein, and when i was listening to judge kavanaugh this morning at his introduction he looked over at his family and he specifically talked about his kids. Hes got a beautiful family. I went up to him as a dad, to be quite honest. I dont go home to my complete family anymore. My daughter was killed, and i am really concerned about how he is going to rule on certain things that matter a lot to me because i dont want to see other families go through what weve gone through. The nra is spending a lot of money to help get him selected, but the problem is, theyre also filing lawsuits all over the country. Florida, for example, we actually passed gun safety after what happened in parkland. The nra filed a lawsuit. These lawsuits are going to end up in front of justice kavanaugh, and unfortunately based upon his prior statements and rulings, we can predict how hes going to rule. Candidly, my hope to him was simply to say, i hope you change your stance. I hope you look in my eye. I hope you see that this pin that i wear on my lapel or these bracelets that i wear, thats all i have to get close to my daughter now, and i hope you can be part in making sure no other parent has to feel the way i do because we can fix this. And i have concern that he wont be that person, but hes a father and i tried i was hoping to appeal to that. So the encounter today, it did go viral. And the White House Deputy press secretary ross shaw, he responded to it. Yes. He tweeted this. He says, as judge kavanaugh left for his lunch break an unidentified individual approached him. Before the judge was able to shake his hand security had intervened. Do you think this could have just been a misunderstanding, that he wasnt trying to sleight you . No, and that statement isnt true. So, number one, i was there all day and i was introduced by senator feinstein. To make it a little bit more, i also when i attend things like this, i dont sit. So i stand out like a sore thumb. I refuse to sit because and i stand there all day because its my way of making sure people know who i am when they talk about issues of gun safety. So you couldnt miss me. After they announced the break to go to lunch senators started mi mingling around. Judge kavanaugh was talking to somebody. I walked up to talk to somebody to the right of judge kavanaugh. He was talking to someone to my left. When that conversation was breaking up i turned around and honestly i cant remember if i tapped him on his elbow or shoulder, but i was trying to get his attention and i put out my hand to shake his hand. I simply said, hi, im Fred Guttenberg, father of Jamie Guttenberg who was murdered in parkland. As soon as i got out parkland, thats when he turned and moved. He was listening to me. All he had to do. All he had to do is extend his hand back and say, im he sorry for your loss, tell me about your daughter. That would have been enough for you . You know what, it would have been a way for one dad to look another dad in the eye and maybe he would have asked me more questions about why im there, but instead as soon as i said murdered in parkland, he just did an immediate turn and went the other way. He also went to security afterwards and what happened after lunch as i got back in the room and i sat down and security, a couple of minutes later, came and pulled me out of the room and said that they thought judge kavanaugh thought that i may have clause cro crossed a boundary. I didnt intend to. I hope he doesnt think i was rude. I put out my hand to say hello and im certain he was the one who told them to take me out because he described these bracelets that i wear on my wrist, which commemorate my daughter.

Allison chinchar is outfront from the cnn weather center. What is the latest track right now for gordon . Right, kate. When we take a look at it, its just over 50 miles away from what we would deem landfall. The center of that circulation about 50 miles due south from the states.

They have Hurricane Hunters out flying through the storm as we speak. It still has the potential to become that low end category 1 storm before it makes landfall.

Thats whats going to steer it. The thing, yes, this will have impacts, kate, to a lot of the areas along the coast. But look at all of this rain that surges inland. So even states like missouri, illinois, areas of arkansas, theyre also going to get a significant amount of rain it of this storm in the coming days.
