News for tuesday, august 20th, this is the cbs morning news for tuesday, august 20th, 2013. Captioning funded y cbs good morning. Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. Well, this wildfire season could shape up to be one of the most destructive on record. The National Interagency fire center said 3. 3 million acres have been destroyed so far, fuelled by hot weather and strong winds, there are currently 49 large fires burning in 11 western states. At least nine are burning in idaho. The worst is the nearly twoweekold beaver creek fire. Its destroyed more than 100,000 acres. The fire appears to be calming, hundreds of fires were evacuated in the resort communities of ketchum and sun valley, but some residents are being allowed to return. Now, its more worrying about the land and animals and the firefighters and how long is the smoke going to be here. You know, so the worry level is down. More than 1,000 firefighters are fighting the beaver creek fire with the help of 14 helicopters. And a wildfire in northern oregon has burned at least 5,000 acres. Dozens of buildings were evacuated. There were no reports of injuries, though. And in the south, the issue is too much water. Flood warnings are posted from florida to the carolinas. Mississippi is trying to dry out after getting drenched with six inches of rain on sunday. In hardhit gulfport, members of one church were stranded for hours. Some say the flooding was worse than hurricane katrina. Meteorologist craig setzer tells us whether theres going to be a break in these dangerous conditions. Much of the region has seen one extreme of weather to the area. Parts too wet. Parts too dry. The reason, the jet stream taking a very unusually large dip through eastern parts of the country thats causing rain in the southeast and dry conditions in the west. This type of pattern usually doesnt move a whole lot. More hot and dry weather expected in the Northern Rockies and the pacific northwest. So know relief for the wildfires there. And moisture continues to come up out of the caribbean and gulf of mexico. Flooding is once again possible for parts of florida, as well as georgia, alabama and on to the carolinas. Now because the pattern is so large in amplitude, big ridges and big dips in the jet stream, its probably not moving a whole lot so the weather that these folks are seeing is going to stick around at least for the next several days. Craig setzer in miami for cbs news. The former president of pakistan perez musharraf was charged this morning in the death of former Prime Minister benazir bhutto. The charges include conspiracy and conspiracy to commit murder. Bhutto was assassinated in 2007, musharraf is currently under house arrest in connection with another case.

A Popular Uprising of the egyptian people swept mubarak out of office in 2011, a move intended to usher in democratic reform but mubaraks replacement Mohamed Morsi is now behind bars himself. And early this morning, many more arrests in a government crackdown in a muslim brotherhood, including mohammeds body the spiritual leader of the group. Calls from the u. S. For reconciliation efforts have been ignored. Politically motivated tensions inside egypt should end. Reporter the turmoil in egypt has lawmakers here calling for president obama to suspend aid to the country. But even cutting off nearly 1. 5 billion in annual support may not bring the change washington is hoping for. Good afternoon. Reporter on monday, secretary of defense chuck hagel was asked if cutting aid to egypt would help end the violence there. Our ability to influence the outcome in egypt is limited. Its up to the egyptian people. Reporter egypt may not lose a dime. Saudi arabia said it will reimburse egypt if western countries suspend their aid. Now, so far, its very unlikely that washington will suspend all aid to egypt. So far, the government here is making only small moves, canceling the delivery of some f16 fighter jets and canceling military exercises planned for next month. Annemarie. Thank you, susan.
