It scares the hell out of me, to be honest with you. I mean, its pretty intimidating. Just came down. It was a deluge. Reporter a months worth of water in less than 24 hours. Sinking cars, shutting down roads. The roof giving way at seattle tacoma airport. Seattle, astoria and olympia marking the wettest september days ever. This is crazy weather. Its unbelievable. Reporter and with all this rain comes wild winds. Gusts up to 75 miles per hour. The wind is so strong, i cant even contain myself right now. Reporter power lines stripped. Morehan 4,000 still in the dark. Treechls puncturing homes and cars. In portland, they are cleaning up before round two tonight. Pushing stalled cars out. Hopefully didnt didnt start raining again. Reporter but it will. And for some, that rain will turn to this. Through tuesday, more than two feet of snow could fall in the cascades. Wow, rain, hurricane gusts and snow to come. And more . Reporter we are transitions pretty quickly to winter in some places. Let me show you how much more rain. This is not normal for this area this time of year. But we do have more to come and some areas going to pick up another two to four inches, david. And look at the wind that comes along with it. This is actually more concerning, as far as the danger involved, to me. Just east of the metro, youre talking 40 to even 80mileperhour gusts. Some of the ski resorts reporting 90 miles an hour already. This goes all the way through tuesday. I want to show the warnings, because the wind watches and advisories are widespread. You can see about seven states at least with some of those high wind warnings, also, the flood watches in place tonight and the winter storm watch in the cascades. All right, i know you and sam tracking it through gma in the morning. Ginger, thank you. Now, the growing Storm Brewing in washington tonight, where americans could find themselves in the middle of a government shutout. It would be the first in nearly 20 years and our countdown to shutdown is ticking tonight. They have until midnight tomorrow night. When that deadline comes in over 24 hours, it wont just be the politicians aware of it, how about the americans that will really pay the price . Heres abcs jeff zeleny tonight. Reporter the halls of congress, quiet today. Eerily quiet. With only one day left to stop the first Government Shutdown in 17 years. A standoff between House Republicans, here leaving the capitol early this morning after voting to keep the government open by demanding a oneyear delay of the new health care law. And Senate Democrats dismissing the plan as pointless. A bitter stalemate. But real consequences for hundreds of thousands of federal workers. And all americans. If no deal comes through, much of the government will go dark tuesday morning. I dont think they need to shut it down. Im concerned. I really am concerned. Reporter across the government, from the labor department, where over 80 of the staff face furloughs. To the treasury department, to the pentagon. A looming shutdown that could delay firsttime home mortgages, slow Airport Security lines and limit food safety inspections.

I do live paycheck to paycheck. Reporter and fears outside washington. Like in biloxi, mississippi, home to this air force base. Joe jones has a message for congress.

And jeff joins us now. Jeff, you pointed out the hundreds of thousands of americans who could be caught in the middle on this thing. Im just curious tonight, how many people there behind you on capitol hill are working the phones, trying to solve this thing . Reporter well, david, i can tell you, not many. We walked the halls throughout the day. Almost no signs of life. And even worse, no behind the scenes negotiations happening. Everyone we talked to say they are almost certain a shutdown is coming monday night. A lot of folks are going to wonder why they are not working around the clock on this one. Also watching this looming shutdown, wall street. Investors and americans who have been lucky enough to see their 401 k s finally recover, and now this. The dow will open after a loss of 200 points last week, already rattled. And tonight, were much closer to that shutdown. I want to bring in rebecca jarvis, great to have you. The last time well had a shutdown, 20 years ago, and the market sent a message then. The markets dropped 3. 7 back then. That for a typical 401 k is more than 7,000 in a span of a couple of weeks. And you say the bigger debate, right around the corner about the debt ceiling, feels like we just had this, and we saw our Credit Rating drop to the nation. For the first time in history, s p lowered the Credit Rating from that aaa status, plus the entire episode cost Global Markets 6 trillion. On a typical 401 k , that was 16,500 in just one days time, david. And now, if you are wondering, what does washington mean to me . Well, all this bickering means it costs you money in your 401 k . Rebecca, thank you. And there is some good Economic News tonight. Gas prices are still headed downward. The average price now standing at 3. 43. Thats down 19 cents just since the beginning of september. Its expected to go even lower. One contributing factor, not politics in washington but our relatively calm hurricane season.

That decisionmaking process went with those 19 men. Reporter the teams view of the fire was likely blocked as they hiked into a canyon, just as shifting winds suddenly turned the blaze directly toward them. Confusion about their location meant an air tanker trying to help from above was useless. With flames closing in, the hot shots had just two shot minutes to deploy fire shelters like these. Talking about temperatures in excess of 2,000 degrees. Reporter no match for the extreme heat. A fire storm so intense, investigators say no one could have survived.
