Virginia. Today, it suddenly turned into a raging river. Streets floode flooded in desti, florida. Cars were abandoned. A mudslide blocked roads in montgomery county, virginia. These storms are part of a double threat. A hurricane could be on the way over the weekend. Eric fisher is our chief meteorologist at the cbs station wbz. Eric, how bad will this get . Scott, very stormy times ahead here all the way through this week and into the weekend. This began last weekend and yesterday with those big rainfall totals, double dinlitz in the Florida Panhandle and flash flooding in virginia. We have flood watches from North Carolina up into new england. This is the same area we will watch all the way through this week into sunday, perhaps into next week. It is a classic setup to funnel in a lot of tropical moisture. We have a dip in the jetstream drawing in a lot of moisture. It has nowhere to go. Its trapped on the east coast. Scott, this is the type of setup we want people to take note of a

I was thinking about the president is not going to asia. Hes going to be at the white house. He doesnt have any Public Events on the schedule. Today things are going to happen. One thing you will see happen is there a measure that will allow for government workers to get back pay once the stand off is resolved. Once there is a resolution in place to Fund Government no matter how long this shut down lasts the then the government will get paid. You hear people say that. Everyone is saying they will side with the government workers but what the house is trying to do are these small budget bills that are taking agencies like to dc budget for the city of washington, d.
