crews saved one woman overnight after she sent out a desperate call for help on facebook live. >> we are trapped. please, y'all, give us some help. we're at the candle factory in mayfield. please. please. y'all! y'all, please, send us some help. somebody, please send us some help. we are trapped. the wall is stuck on me. nobody can get to us. y'all, please, we can't move. adrina, calm down. please, y'all. pray for us. just get somebody to come and help us. >> that's mayfield, kentucky, which we'll get back to in a minute, but there's also edwardsville, illinois, where rescuers are searching for workers at an amazon warehouse. in arkansas, 20 people were pulled free after the storm hit a nursing home. a resident there died. at least one long track tornado traveled as much as more than 200 miles. across multiple states, according to the national weather service. this video shows a tornado that appears to have touched down on that same path. now, federal resources are heading to these hard hit areas. we're expecting to hear remarks from president biden likely within this hour. let's go now to mayfield, kentucky, where nadia romero has on the scene. what's the latest on these furious rescue efforts? >> reporter: now we can see just how many crews have shown up from all across the state. different cities and counties trying to make their way here to help the search and rescue efforts that have been ongoing since the overnight hours. we are set up next to a john deere supplier that has been right next to the candle factory for years now. this is some of the damage and debris those first responders are trying to move out of the way just to get a better look at the rubble and if you come over here behind me, you can see there are plenty of search and rescue crews that have shown up within just the last hours, including the national guard. remember, the governor of kentucky said that he would be calling out the national guard, having a state emergency. we're also waiting on word from president biden about those federal rouesources making thei way here. we haven't had anyone pulled out of that rubble since about 3:00 this morning. that's when the cory oner says they last found a survivor. for the last 13 hours that have been gone by, they've only been recovering people who did not survive. listen to the county coroner talk about what he's seeing on the ground here. >> this is just something, it's just, it just blows my mind. it's just, it's hard to take. and something you just don't plan on ever seeing in your community where there's like 40 that has not been accounted for. whether they're in there or not or made it home, but some of the staff and everything i guess in the office department said there's 40 that they can't, you know, account for. >> so you could hear some of the information that the coroner wanted to share. some of it he's obviously holding back. we want to get you over to a presser now that's happening, phil. >> all right. nadia, thanks so much. >> right now, over to kentucky governor with the latest updates. >> most devastating, most deadly tornado event in kentucky's history. i believe that by the end of today or tomorrow, we will be north of at least 70 lives lost here in kentucky. i think we will have lost more than 100 people and i think it could rise significantly in those numbers. about 1:00 this morning, i was at the state emergency operation center hearing the reports coming in live. places like my parents hometown, dawson springs, which i just came from, and how hard it was hit. hearing about families trapped in a basement and actually thinking they're lucky as long as we can get to them based on what happened from so many other families. hearing about the amazing efforts of our first responders, so many in this room. we thank you every day. we absolutely thank you today. thank you so much for what you've done for our people over these last hours. i know you haven't slept. i know what that feels like. i know the efforts that you've put in and i know when you were out there especially in the first part of it, it was incredibly dangerous to you. we have seen people come together from all over the state. all over the country. federal partners like atf. we had the coast guard in mayfield. we are seeing people come in from other states and regions. i just want everybody to know that you are not alone. today, kentucky is absolutely united. we're united with our people. we're united to find and rescue as many as possible. we are united to grieve. with i think over 100 families that will have lost individuals and we are united to be here for those families and this and every other impacted community. not just today and this week, but in the coming years so that we rebuild and get those families back on their feet. the devastation is unlike anything i have seen in my life and i have trouble putting it into words. when i was safe to travel this morning, i flew to mayfield. my first stop was that candle factory. 110 people working in it at the time the storm hit. they rescued 40. there's at least 15 feet of metal with cars on top of it. barrels of corrosive chemicals that are there. it will be a miracle if anybody else is found alive. downtown, completely devastated. from there, my dad's hometown of dawson springs. population, oh, 2700. they're going lose a whole lot of people. one block from my grandparents' house. there's no house standing. there's no house standing and we don't know where all those people are. this was four different tornados and i'm told we're actually going to see a little bit more on that, that hit us. including one that touched down in arkansas and then stayed on the ground for 227 straight miles, which we believe is likely the longest in u.s. history. folks, 200 of those miles were in kentucky. we are ground zero and i know this community is hit, has been hit really hard. we are with you. the whole state is with you. about just before midnight last night that we signed, i signed the state of emergency. that allowed us to call up the national guard. now hundreds deploying all over kentucky to help. to help going door to door. to see if we can find people. to help clearing the roadways and helping law enforcement in some towns that aren't going to have any power tonight. we've been able to get our transportation cabinet with all of our heavy trucks out on the roads clearing them off because it's hard to reach people in need when the roads are unpassable. our division of forestry is out there helping with that as well. finding any and everything we can do including bringing some of the largest generators we've ever seen to some of these communities where they can power a school, a hospital. where it is needed. since our last stop, there are two new announcements at this point in the day. first, the president has signed the federal emergency disaster declaration. for those who do this work, that rarely happens in the midst of a disaster. it shows how bad it is. it opens us up to significantly more resources and things like almost immediate reimbursement for a lot of the things we're doing, which is going to help our cities and our counties to really do even more. i've talked today directly to the president twice. the head of homeland security, the secretary, and as well as the director of fema, who's going to be in kentucky tomorrow. they have all pledged whatever we need, and i plan to ask. so make sure you communicate those needs to us and we'll either satisfy them or go out and get them. it's getting close tonight. it's getting cold. it's going to be a tough night for a lot of people across kentucky. the second new announcement is people have been asking all day how can we help. we've been telling them two things, with the third coming. the first we said is if you are in a community that has been hit and hit hard and you're safen ad you have power, stay off the roads. let our first responders like the ones we have here, get to everybody. don't go to some of these areas because you want to see it. we need to make sure that those who do this work that are so good at it can do it at the fastest possible speed. second, give blood. we are already pretty short with covid out there and have been pushing. we're going to have, a lot of death. we're also going to have a lot of injuries. but the third is we have now been able to set up a single fund connected with the state that people who want to help in kentucky or outside of it, can get to. that is solely dedicated to helping the on the ground efforts going on right now and the relief efforts that these families are going to need to rebuild. that is a team western kentucky tornado relief fund. it is now live at teamwkyrelieffund.ky.gov. teamwkyrelieffund.ky.gov. we've been hearing from folks, again, all around the country. i've heard from some folks from outside the country that run great companies inside of kentucky. they are mourning for this anand other communities. with that, we're going to have a number of folks give us updates on where we are right now. i think we're first turning it over to the mayor to talk about specifically what we're seeing here. let me say i know that lives lost are going to be in double digits. they're going to be in multiple counties. i know mulenburg. i know hopkins. here. certainly graves. we believe in marshall. it's tough. but also your folks have done incredible work. on top of it since the very beginning and i'm real proud of the response here in warren county. >> thank you for taking a knee at this moment. we're in an emergency state and we appreciate what the governor and the president has already declared for us. our community wants to help. the best way is just like the governor stated, but there's another way. i talked to our local red cross. they are set up right now at south warren high school. many, many people have already given in kind donations to the red cross at south central high school. what they've told me is they appreciate it, but they've asked to hold off on in kind donations. what we need now is because that is a place where our personnel, our people, are going for shelter tonight. they already have about 15 personnel that are there this evening. we know more are coming and so they need to focus their energy towards taking care of those that need immediate shelter. so if you need immediate shelter, please contact through our 911, and ask for assistance in getting to south warren if you need to get there because it is getting colder. light is about to give up on us. and we need people to be able to get in. >> you've been listening to kentucky's governor giving an update on the deadly tornados. now to president biden. >> moved across several states in the center of the united states including tennessee down across 227 miles of kentucky alone. i'm monitoring the situation closely since early this morning. this is likely to be one of the largest tornado outbreaks in our history. earl yes today, i called the governors of the states that had experienced severe impacts including arkansas, illinois, kentucky, missouri, as well as tennessee. also spoke with minority leader, mitch mcconnell, of kentucky. governor bashir and i started off the morning together and he said as i was watching on television while talking to him like all of you have, and his comment was it looks like a war zone. but worse. jill and i pray and i mean this, pray for those who have lost loved ones and for those who are uncertain of the fate of their loved ones and the debris that you see scattered all over the hurricane's path. they lost their homes. their businesses. it's a tragedy. it's a tragedy. and we still don't know how many lives are lost and the full extent of the damage. i want to emphasize what i told all the governors. the federal government will do everything, everything it can possibly do to help. i've spoken several times today with the head of fema as well as the director of fema, who's already been deployed, already deployed emergency response personnel to these states, search and rescue teams, water and other supplies, and fema's on the ground working with each of the satates to assess the damages and focus on federal support where it is needed most and how we can get there most rapidly. i also and apparently it's just been announced, i also approved the emergency declaration that was requested a couple of hours ago by the governor of kentucky. that's going to accelerate federal emergency assistance for kentucky right now when it's urgently needed. and i stand ready to do the same for the governors of other states and i made it clear to them if that question it. i've already requested that fema offer additional roesources including help are housing and i also asked the fema director to let the states what that may not be aware of what they might be entitled to because they don't know all that's available from the federal end. we're going to continue to receive, i personally am receiving regular updates and my staff is continuing to reach out to the mayors, the county officials and other local leaders in these states affected by the tornado and my heart goes out. i was told that early this morning, that one of the equivalent of a county executive, one of the folks in kentucky was lost in this tornado. i want folks in all these states to know we're going to get through this together and the federal government is not going to walk away. this is one of those times when we aren't democrats or republicans. sounds like hyperbole, but it's real. we're all americans. we stand together as the united states of america. and so i say to all the victims, you're in our prayers and all those first responders, emergency personnel and everyone helping their fellow americans. this is the right thing to do at the right time and we're going to do this. i'd be happy to take a question or two. >> does this say anything to you about climate change? conclude that -- >> well, all that i know is that the intensity of the weather across the board has some impact as a consequence of the warming of the planet and the climate change. the specific impact on these specific storms, i can't say at this point. i'm going to be asking the epa and others to take a look at that, but the fact is that we all know everything is more intense when the climate is warming. everything. and obviously it has some impact here, but i can't give you a quantitative read on that. >> mr. president, do you have any plans to visit any of the affected areas? >> yes, i do. i spoke with, i started off this morning with the governor of kentucky and offered to, i said i'll be happy to come, but i don't want to be in the way. when a president shows up, he shows up with an awful lot of personnel. an awful lot of vehicles. an awful lot of, we can get in the way unintentionally. and so what i'm working with the governor of kyeentucky and othe who may want me to be there, to make sure we're value added at the time, we're not going to get in the way of rescue and recovery. but i do plan on going. >> any comments on other disaster relief money? >> we'll see. whatever is needed i'm going to ask for. if we don't already have the where with all to take care of it, i'm going to ask for it. this is the united states of america. our citizens are badly, badly hurt and they're scared to death now in terms of all those folks who they can't figure out where they are. it's devastating. yes, you have a question, sir. >> the threat of national guard or troops -- >> the answer is yes if the states conclude they need it. so the national guard has been called out of one state, but whatever is needed that's within the authority of the president of the united states and the federal government to provide that help. and we're going to provide whatever is needed. i think we've demonstrated since we've been elected, that every major national disaster, we have been there early, often, and stayed until we got it finished and that's what we're going to do here. again, i think what i've found is i've found in the floods in the northeast and the wildfires in the west, it's is anxiety. all those poor people wondering, where is my loved one? where are they? are they going to be okay? i don't think it's possible to exaggerate the extent and the fear and the concern. we have a lot of people that are going in doing rerscue, running machines, forklifts and the like. the way in which i watched it when the building collapsed in florida, i watched how it takes a price on, toll on them. god, am i going to move something that's going to fix something. and so that's what i, my heart aches for those people right now. including the rescuers. including the burden on them and what they worry about. that's what they talk to me about in florida. that's what they talk to me about afterwards. so we have to keep at it and keep focused. this is going to be a focus of my attention until we get this finished. >> do you have a message to the victims and their families and talk about how governments can be better prepared for disasters? >> quite frankly, i think we're at prepared as any government has been for dealing with the disasters. now the question is, one of the questions are going to be raised i'm confident, is what warning was there and was it strong enough and was it heeded. that's a question i assume is going to be part of the discussion in the states as well as usual. you ask me the best question and ask me about what we're going to do about it. how we're going to handle this. and part of it is acknowledging that the likelihood of fewer weather catastrophes. continued movement on dealing with global warming. it's just not going to happen. like i said, we didn't think, i think the best example for me has been, what struck me the most, we always had wildfires. who in god's name thought we'd see this calendar year more territory burned to the ground, every tree, every home, every road, you know, larger than the state of new jersey. from the hudson river down to cape may. so we have to act, but the first and urgent piece here is we have to save anyone who's still alive. we have to care for them if we have to get them to hospitals and we have to take care of all those families. you're all pros. asking the questions. imagine if you're home in the path, what do you do? everything's gone from that baptism photograph to the wedding picture to the picture of your oldest daughter in a ballet. i mean, it's profound. it's just profound. and it's, but i promise you, whatever is needed, whatever is needed, the federal government is going to find a way to supply it. thank you all so very, very much. thank you. >> decide to take u.s. combat troops off the table when it comes -- >> they never were on the table and you're ready to send american troops into war to fight russians on the battlefield. here's the deal. i've made it absolutely clear to president putin, it's the last thing i'll say. that if he moves on ukraine, the economic consequence for his committee are going to be devastating. devastating. number one. number two. we will find it required that we'll have to send more american and nato troops into the eastern flank, all those nato countries where we had a sacred obligation to defend them against any attack by russia. and number three, the impact of all of that on russia and its attitude the rest of the world's view of russia would change markedly. pay a terrible price. and so it's, and we are going to continue to provide for and we have and continue to provide for the defense capacities for the ukrainian people. thank you so much. >> say that senator manchin -- >> you've been listening to president biden speaking about the outbreak of deadly tornados overnight that has likely left more than 70 people dead. arlette saenz joins me from the white house. one of the things the president said over and over, whatever is needed, which has always been his administration's posture. what kind of assistance do we see the federal government providing? >> you're right. he wanted to make clear in his speech that the federal government will be providing whatever assistance they request and need in order to deal with the aftermath of these storms. now the president has been briefed by his fema team and has dire directed them to surge federal resources to the area. that including search and rescue teams. also supplies like water and other things that people are going to need in these points of recovery. the president also notably said he asked for additional help when it comes to temporary housing for those families who have now been displaced after they've seen their homes bulldozed, belongings strewn across fields due to these tornados. now, in addition to this federal assistance, the president also expressed his sympathy and condolences to those who have been affected. he specifically said his heart aches for them. not just for the people who know they have lost loved ones, but also for those who are still learning or waiting to learn of what has happened to their loved ones who are currently missing. he also said he's thinking of the rescuers. the first responders who are there working with these families. so often, president biden has assumed this role of comforter in chief. something that comes naturally to him given his own experience with tragedy and loss and he wanted to relay that to the communities who are reeling after these devastating storms. now the president also talked a bit about climate change. he said that yes, climate change has contributed to the severity of weather events, but when it comes to this specific outbreak of tornados, which he said is likely to be the largest tornado outbreak in u.s. history, the president said he's not quite sure what impact climate change had there. he's going to ask his epa to conduct a review to analyze whether or how much of an impact climate change had on the severity of this tornado outbreak. but certainly the president in these remarks from wilmington, delaware, trying to make clear that he's going to remain in contact with those local officials. that he's ready to offer any assistance that they querequest. he said he will be traveling to the rengion once he knows his time there won't be a strain on resources. he wants to go to the communities to offer words of comfort. >> governor andy bashir told the president today it looks like a war zone, but worse. arlette saenz, great reporting as always. next, the severe storms devastating

>> the damage here is catastrophic. again, like everyone is saying is undescribable. it, the tornado from arkansas to mayfield and on. and i believe that it traveled at a very fast speed as well. when i intercepted the tornado on i-55, it was moving at a very fast pace. it was very violent. it it had a lot of power. and to see what it did up here, i don't even think here in mayfield, i don't even think it was at that level when i intercepted it. so it grew on its way north, this, the damage here is unbelievable. there -- going into, i believe i arr arrived in mayfield around 10:30 last night, i believe. i was not here when the tornado actually hit, but seeing the first responders on scene immediately. especially at the candle factory. i know that's been one of their big priorities. another big priority that i see now that everyone heard with the governor is the roads. and driving up and down. they are now, the national guard came in. putting up roadblocks. they are maintaining these roads with personnel. to help speed up this, the process, and i see a lot less people out here than i did six hours ago. six hours ago, i had lines of cars. so yes, it's getting a lot colder. i think -- like i say, it's undescribable. i pray for all those families out there. the first responders out there. the volunteers. this community has really came together. i have noticed that. >> you watch the response, obviously grow with first responders and the work they've been doing, but i guess the other thing, what's the most difficult thing you've seen over the course of the last 15, 16 hours since you've been on the ground there. particularly as the sun came up and we got a full sense of the devastation? >> it's just, well, i haven't really seen any retrievals of humans or bodies in any of the homes or buildings. i did see some not physically seen, but them working on removing people from the candle factory and that was pretty heart wrenching. i did notice in a lot of the personnel that was assisting as well. it's something, when you have to you know, piece by piece, pick rubble off of somebody that's hurting and nobody wants to see that. i think it just, they -- i -- >> i think we might have lost michael gordon there. just extraordinarily personal sense of what's happening on the ground. we appreciate both his work in giving people a view of the scale of devastation. we can see it on the screen there from his drone footage, but also his personal view of the rescue efforts and the pain and emotion that those who are participating in those efforts have been going through, but also just the sheer devastation in the community. michael gordon, thanks so much. we're going to take a quick break. we'll be back in a moment. what if you could have the perspective to see more?

it's well into december. they're saying the tornado was on the ground for more than 220 miles. not what we'd consider a normal tornado season. >> and memphis, tennessee, got up to 80 degrees

small and they're down along the gulf coast. certainly not into missouri, illinois, kentucky. obviously june and july are the worth months. 100 tornado warnings were issued yesterday alone and there

still a risk, but nothing significant. the models aren't coming together. the moisture, the heat, and the jet stream not all like it was yesterday. not at all. so we're not going to have it overnight like we had overnight last night. just don't have all the ing ingredients in the right places. >> and it's getting colder there now. appreciate your reporting as always, sir. frustrated by the lack of
