first nor'easter of the season. it's a monster storm and getting more powerful by the hour as it barrels through new england overnight. both new york and new jersey remain under states of emergency tonight. parts of new jersey were swamped by more than five inches of rain, just this morning. and state troopers-- listen to this-- they responded to nearly 200 accidents before noon. thousands of

we lose it again, i'm going bankrupt. >> reporter: this storm had already cut a path of destruction through the midwest this weekend, with tornadoes decimating several towns in illinois and missouri. >> the roofs and walls are down, and, i mean, yeah, it's just a total massive destruction. >> reporter: also this week, on the west coast, a power storm dumped record-breaking rain, triggering

some folks in new england. >> thus far this storm has been all about rain and we'll transition and talk about the winds. take a look at your radar picture. the center of the circulation is still well offshore, but it's been spilling rain as far inland as syracuse, new york, and we have had heavy bands of rain from new york city to boston putting out five inches of rain. from this point forward we talk about the winds, because look at the winds blowing out there. truro, on cape cod has 76-mile- per-hour wind gusts and at 11:00 tomorrow morning the wind are back down but not gone. montauk to cape cod, 50-mile- per-hour gusts. the problem there is you have saturated ground. 50-mile-per-hour gusts can put over a tree when the ground is just not secure below it. have to check in on the

melo and her five-year-old sister bridgett were part of that trial. >> it was sort of something brave to do. and we thought it would keep us safe. >> reporter: that's great. did you feel okay about it when you did it? >> yes. >> yes. >> reporter: their parents, meghan and jim, say they first got the okay from the family's pediatrician. >> i think if we can all create that herd immunity, we can all finally start coming out of this and start leading a normal life, and our kids interacting and playing and running around together and families and friends getting together and just returning to a normal life. >> reporter: the f.d.a. usually follows the recommendations of the advisory panel. a c.d.c. panel is expected to weigh in next week, and it's possible that shots could be going into young

people were injured in the shooting. the gunman was shot by police and he died today. still, there is no word on the motive for the attack. all right, tonight, there are serious questions about whether safety protocols were followed on the new mexico movie set where alec baldwin accidentally shot and killed a cinematographer. cbs' jonathan vigliotti has disturbing new details from santa fe. >> reporter: three revolvers, spent shell casings and ammo, that's what detectives found inside boxes, a fanny pack and laying around loose as they searched the new mexico set where actor alec baldwin fatally shot a cinematographer. it's not clear if the ammunition was live bullets, but there are damaging new reports about what allegedly happened just hours before halyna hutchins' death. according to sharon waxman, editor in chief of "the wrap," sources on the set allege crew members had been firing live ammo off set earlier that day. >> there were crew members who had gone off and done sort of passing the time fun, shooting at targets out in the desert before the shooting occurred, with guns from the set, including the gun that killed halyna hutchins. >> reporter: these new photos provided by dailymail.com, show the movie's armorer, hannah gutierrez-reed, back at home in arizona. the 24-year-old was responsible for preparing the prop gun for a scene baldwin was filming on this small church set. according to a search warrant affidavit, assistant director dave hauls then handed the gun to baldwin. >> if they were so negligent on the crew or the armorer was so negligent as to allow live ballistic rounds on to a movie set, i think that's going to be a major problem. and i think that is so inexplicable, that you are really rising to the level of potential criminal negligence. >> reporter: and the district attorney has not ruled out criminal charges. she will join the sheriff's department here tomorrow for a joint press conference where we hope to learn more about the chain of command surrounding the handling of this gun and the type of bullet fired from it. norah. >> o'donnell: jonathan vigliotti, thank you. all right, back here in washington, democrats are still working out details on the president's social spending plan, including a possible new tax on billionaires. they've said repeatedly that they're close to a deal. cbs' ed o'keefe joins us from the white house with new details. all right, ed, what's in it. >> reporter: good evening, norah. cbs news has learned the talks are focused on three key areas to try to scale back the bill and win back the support of key moderate senators joe manchin of west virginia and kyrsten sinema of arizona. first, democrats are working to ensure four weeks of paid family leave, rather than the 12 originally proposed. second, they're considering vouchers of up to $1,000 to cover dental procedures instead of expanding medicare to include full dental coverage. and finally, to help pay for the plan democrats are proposing a tax on the nations roughly 700 billionaires. there's some disagreement over whether the plan will work and it would only pay for part of the legislation. but there is one bright spot for the white house tonight, cbs news has learned the final package is expected to include at least $500 billion to fight climate change, a major signal the american commitment to the issue as the president heads later this week to europe for two major summits where climate change will dominate the talks. norah. >> o'donnell: ed o'keefe, thank you. and there are new concerns tonight over the health of britain's queen elizabeth. she canceled her appearance at that upcoming climate summit that ed just mentioned on the advice of her doctors. they have given little information about her condition. the queen, now 95 years young, did spend a night in the hospital last week. all right, facebook isn't the only social media network that finds itself in the crosshairs of congress. today,

laura berman is still coming to grips with the loss of her 16-year-old son, sammy, who died this year from an overdose on drugs that he got through the image-sharing app snapchat. how is that possible? >> it never even occurred to me that drug dealers were soliciting our kids on the place where they hung out the most. >> reporter: traumatic incidents like berman's were among the concerns raised by senators to executives from youtube, tiktok, and snapchat. >> are you going to get drugs off snapchat? >> i assure you this is such a top priority. >> reporter: from illicit drugs to videos about eating disorders, bullying, and violent challenges that have gone viral. >> what the ( bleep ) is going on, bro? >> reporter: lawmakers confronted the panel about the dangers many teens and kids face online. >> how can parents be confident that tiktok, snapchat, and youtube will not continue to host and push dangerous and deadly challenges to our kids? >> anything that is illegal or dangerous violates our guidelines. >> how can you allow this? >> reporter: the platforms insist they have safeguards in but that's little comfort to berman, who wants more protections in place, like parental monitoring software. >> our kids can run circles around us digitally, so, honestly, there's nothing a parent can do to monitor their kid. the good news is that attention is being called to this issue. >> reporter: the companies agreed to share some of their internal research about the impact on kids with the committee. the head of the panel told me he may call them back to testify again. norah. >>

seeking any more suspects for nazi crimes. >> we didn't hear from perpetrators for so many years, and so i think it's important that we do hear from them. >> reporter: ben cohen's great- grandmother was murdered at stutthof. his grandmother survived, but died last year. >> we say "never again." how do we prevent these things from happening again if we don't understand how they happened in the
