Over yet. Hurricane dorian has been pummeling the island for more than 24 hours now. And its been packing category 4 winds and storm surges over 20 feet in some places. Dorian is devastating but also painfully slow. Its barely moving, meaning residents there are being hit over and over again. And flooding is also a major threat on lowlying islands. The Prime Minister says at least five people are dead. Hes calling it a historic tragedy. Many homes, businesses, and other buildings have been completely or partially destroyed. There is an extraordinary amount of flooding and damage to infrastructure. Meanwhile in the u. S. , millions of people have been ordered to evacuate. Officials say dorian will move dangerously close to florida over the coming hours. At least 2,700 flights into, out of, and within the u. S. Have been canceled. Well, cnn is on the ground in florida as dorian begins to bear down. Derek van dam is in stuart along the states east coast. Nick valencia is further north in melbourne, and ivan cabrera is here in the studio. Okay. So lets start with ivan. And we have an update. We have some more information. We do. So now we have a category 3 hurricane here. So the winds have come down, which is somewhat good news here, but the problem is it hasnt moved and its still continued to do so. But a category 3, we havent talked about dorian being category 3 since mid last week. That has been how long this has been a major hurricane. And by the way, a cat 3 still is 125mileanhour winds. It is still stationary, so it has not moved in the last 24 hours, which is, again, something you just dont see. A category 5 and then 4 and now 3 spinning on top of grand bahama. And as long as that happens, the winds here are fierce. Category 3 winds, youre going to continue to pile water over and over and over. Sometimes you get the storm surge coming in, and then it comes back out as things are supposed to go. But when you get a hurricane parked on top of you, this is what happens here. Then on the back side of the island, by the way, we have a reverse storm surge coming in with a southerly wind, although this way less populated than freeport, but not entirely so. Some of the outer rain bands, youve been seeing those with our reporters fanning along the east coast of florida there, and weve had some close to Tropical Storm force wind gusts, particularly in stuart. Had an 38mileanhour wind gust, now to 35, but thats been on going. Those showers that continue to move will contain some Tropical Storm force wind gusts but i dont think were going to get into hurricane conditions until we get into the next couple of days. What i mean by that, hurricane winds are possible along the coast, which is why we have a hurricane warning. But notice the cone is east of florida. A lot of folks think that when youre out of the cone, youre out of danger. Thats not the case, especially with a strong hurricane here. If it makes a close enough pass, the water is going to get pushed in. We have so many rivers and inlets. Im from florida. I know this state very well. Ive been through many hurricanes, and this one is unique just like they all are. And because of the shape of the coastline here, some areas are more vulnerable than others, which is why we have some evacuatio evacuations and some areas not. Heres the forecast from the latest advisory. Category 3, still a major hurricane, 125. Tuesday at 8 00 p. M. , it is still lurking east of florida. That will be the case wednesday at 8 00. Eventually it makes a run for the carolinas here. The reason this has been slowmoving, youve been asking about this. They dont steer themselves. They depend on the upper levels of the atmosphere, the winds going aloft. Its been stuck between a high to the east and a high to the west. You see that orange there. Were going to dig in this trough, and its going to begin to pull dorian finally away from the grand bahama island and then along the florida coast. Watch the clock here tuesday into wednesday and then into thursday, all the while hitting the east coast of florida with significant rain and the potential for storm surge as well. So double threats there in florida that will continue. Is it going to make a landfall in florida . We dont think so at this point, which is excellent news, but we cant say that about the carolinas because basically the coast just juts out, so its going to run out of ocean and hit the carolinas potentially thursday and into friday. But the threat continues for the bahamas for another 10 to 12 hours. Theyre getting pummeled there. Its going to be two days running with a major hurricane offshore. Never seen anything like it. We havent. Thanks so much. Thanks for keeping us updated, ivan cabrera. Lets get more now from the bahamas. Basel dean is the Deputy Director of the Bahamas Department of meteorology. This is the strongest storm to hit the bahamas. Whats happening right now . Right now, dorian is sitting smack over grand bahama. Its been sitting there now for the last nine hours, and thats pretty much unfortunate because the battering waves, the strong surge and torrential rains are causing quite a mess in grand bahama. We had storm surges inundating the entire island of grand bahama, and persons have been calling in for relief. Unfortunately because of the very strong winds, relief workers are unable to get in there. But looking at the sunlight pictures and radar imageries just before i left the station, the sudden eyewall is now starting to creeposs grand bahama, and that means that the intense 140mileperhour winds should be battering the central portions of grand bahama as a speak. But that hopefully will continue during the course of the night, and if that eyewall continues to move northward, we can see some letting up of the effects of that storm over grand bahama. But right now grand bahama is taking a beating. Very strong winds, 140 Miles Per Hour as i said. And a storm surge, its a major, major factor today, and as a result, flooding has inundated that entire island. Have you been in any communication with people on some of the worsthit areas . What do we know about the destruction, the level of destruction, and also the toll on human life . Communication has become very few. Connectivity is very sparingly. I spoke with one of my forecasters in freeport about six hours ago, and at that time they had to relocate from a ground floor to a second floor of the building that they are in simply because of saltwater that is now seeping in. And they lost also the electricity, and right now we are now unable, because i suspect that their phone batteries have all gone dead. Okay. Well, well pray for them. Good luck. Please keep us posted, and we hope this storm moves on very quickly. Appreciate it, sir. It is certainly all of our prayers, and we wish all the best and hope that come sunrise tomorrow, the news is not as bdt as we anticipate. Basil dean, appreciate you joining us here on cnn. Now, as dorian sits over the bahamas, the next few hours is, as weve been reporting, crucial in telling us where it will go next and hopefully move off the bahamas. Derek van dam is in stuart, florida. Just give us a sense of where you are and what people are expecting. Reporter well, we are about a kilometer off the coastline from the actual Barrier Island thats on the east coast of florida. We arent experiencing anything like the nightmare, neverending nightmare that is unfolding just 100 miles to our east in the island of grand bahama. But regardless of that, every 30 to 45 minutes, we are getting walloped by literally these outer rain bands from Hurricane Dorian. It is transporting its energy from the center of the storm, and it is bringing it to the coastline in the form of strong winds and heavy rainfall. It is still periodic, but it comes and it goes. And when it hits us, we know it very quickly. We heard ivan talk about some of the wind reports in stuart, which is just about a half a kilometer away from where im located right now, and that location had a 38mileperhour wind gust. So were approaching that Tropical Storm force, and we expect that to continue as time goes on. Now, weve seen the latest update from the National Hurricane center. We know that this has weakened to a powerful category 3, still a very formidable, dangerous storm. But when these large hurricanes start to weaken, the wind field expands. This is significant because regardless of the track of the storm, it will stay offshore for the coast of florida. Thats the likely scenario here thats going to play out. But were still going to get that large area of Tropical Storm force that will bring impacts into the coastlie, especially along the Barrier Islands where we have mandatory evacuations taking place here. So this is really a game of miles. Any deviation to the west, any deviation to the east means everything for these residents. They are hoping for that easterly turn to take place quicker than it is right now at the moment. Threats here, storm surge. We have the potential for flash flooding, maybe a spinup tornado or two, and strong gusty winds that could take down electrical poles as well as trees here around us. Robyn . Its still such a vulnerable coastline. Thanks so much, derek van dam. So nick valencia is live this hour in melbourne, florida, and were going to go straight to nick there. Millions of people under these alerts, under evacuation orders. How prepared do you think the coastline is . Reporter i think theres a little bit of fatigue going on, robyn, because they started to prepare wednesday of last week for the possibility of a direct hit. You know, when this storm was first forecast, it was predicted to make a direct impact, direct landfall into Central Florida. The track changed, and i think a lot of people sort of breathed a collective sigh of relief and let their guard down. We can tell you whats going on right now. Weve felt the strongest winds that weve felt since weve been out here. We havent felt a single drop of rain just yet, but we just felt a really strong wind gust here. That is only going to get worse throughout the Morning Hours. I mentioned the fatigue factor. What im seeing here is a lot businesses as early as yesterday hadnt really been taking the precautions or preparations. We saw limited sandbagging, limited plywood going up, no shutters deployed. That changed. Just across the street from me, all the businesses here within eyesight have been boarded up. Mandatory evacuations went into effect at 1 00 p. M. Yesterday, but all the residents i spoke to, i was just across the causeway here. All the residents i spoke to said they were going to take their chances and stick it out. I know that sounds crazy to a lot of people seeing the storm system and seeing whats on its way to florida. We have to remind our viewers this is a state that has been through a lot worse before. You know, storms that have impacted this state, five major hurricanes in the last four years. Since this storm is only expected to grind up the coast, it is going to show some Tropical Storm winds here, but that serious impact that was expected last week is not going to happen. Of course Emergency Management officials are still going in front of the cameras, holding press conferences, urging residents to take precautions and to listen. So far, though, a lot of people that weve spoken to say theyre just going to take their chances and ride this storm out. Rob robyn . Thanks for that report. As millions of people along that southeastern coast brace for Hurricane Dorians impact, President Trump is back to work after a weekend of golfing and tweeting. His aides are reportedly keeping him briefed on the storm, but as Kaitlan Collins now reports, the president may need help keeping the facts straight. Reporter today the president teeing up at his golf course outside washington as Hurricane Dorian battered the bahamas and bore down on the u. S. Critics reminding him of this promise he once made to supporters. Im going to be working for you. Im not going to have time to go play golf. Im not going to be playing much golf. Reporter he also spent the morning attacking the media and a Prominent Union leader on twitter while retweeting updates on the storm and the boat fire in california. As white house officials insist, he was briefed hourly on dorians movements. The federal government stands ready to assist. Reporter after a weekend at camp david, the president returned to washington for a briefing at femas headquarters, where he appeared baffled by the storms intensity. Im not sure that ive ever even heard of a category 5. I knew it existed. Reporter even though there have been four category 5 hurricanes since hes been in office. Its not the first time hes claimed surprise about the common term. He said the same thing after Hurricane Irma in 2017. I never even knew a category 5 existed. Reporter the National Weather service also forced to correct the president after he claimed blalabama was in dorian path. So for alabama, just please be careful also. Reporter the National Weather service in birmingham, alabama, says thats not so, tweeting, alabama will not see any impacts from dorian. We repeat, no impacts from Hurricane Dorian will be felt across alabama. The system will remain too far east. Kaitlan collins, cnn, the white house.

When insurance is simple, its surprisingly painless. This is what were tracking right now, Hurricane Dorian. And just a short time ago, the storm was actually downgraded slightly to a category 3 hurricane, but thats because the wind speed decreased by five miles an hour. Dorian is still a deadly, dangerous storm. And for more than 24 hours, its been sitting over the northern bahamas, pounding those islands and leaving desperate people wondering when the rain and the wind will ever stop. We know at least five people have been reported dead. And in the u. S. , mandatory evacuations are under way in four states with the path of the storm still quite up in the air. Well have more on that in just a few moments time. But another story were following here at cnn, it was supposed to be a fun overnight scuba diving trip off the california coast, but it turned into an utter nightmare when a dive boat caught fire, trapping dozens of passengers below the deck. So far eight people have been confirmed dead, 26 others still unaccounted for. And our nick watt now reports there are many, many questions about what went wrong. Reporter a mayday call just before 3 30 a. M. Mayday, mayday, mayday conception, conception. Reporter 30 miles from the mainland just north of los angeles, First Responders beaten back by the inferno. It keeps being extinguished and reflashing possibly due to the amount of fool onboard. Unsure why. Reporter five crew members escaped. The crew was actually already awake and on the bridge and they jumped off. Five people were evacuated aboard a Good Samaritan pleasure craft known as the grape escape. Reporter one brought ashore on a stretcher rushed to the hospital, one limping, an injured ankle. Two shoeless and shocked. 32 others were belowdecks. Were told there are numerous fatalities. Listen to the dispatcher on that mayday call asking questions. Roger. Are they locked inside the boat . Roger. Can you get back onboard and unlock the doors so they can get off . Reporter we cannot hear the answers, and the coast guard has said the boast was in compliance. We are combing the shoreline. We have vessels, two vessels from coast guard station Channel Islands harbor. We have coast guard Helicopter Air crews, so we are throwing everything that we have nearby area to search for these missing 34 people. Reporter the boat sank in 64 feet of water just 20 yards from the shore of santa cruz island. The conception, a 75foot dive boat seen here in video on a previous trip had left Santa Barbara saturday morning. The cause of that fire that destroyed her still unknown. The ntsb is en route, and the coast guard is working with the vessels owner, but the priority right now, the fight with hope fading to find any more survivors. That was nick watt reporting there. As nick reported, five people were able to escape those flames and were rescued by a nearby boat. Well, the owner of that boat says he doesnt feel like a hero. Take a listen. I wish i could have picked all 35 of them up. I mean all of them. Ive got the space. You know, if they could have all just gotten in the water, i could have got them out of there. I dont feel like i deserve being called a hero. I was just a guy there in that place, and i would hope that anybody would do the same thing. Hansen and his wife discovered the disaster after they were jarred awake by the sound of pounding noises on the side of their boat from the dive boat crew seeking help. Well continue to monitor that story. Meanwhile, new details are emerging about the man who went on a shooting spree in west texas on saturday. Seven people were killed, more than two dozen injured. Ryan young has the latest on what authorities are learning about the gunman and the calls he made before and during the shooting. Reporter robyn, this still remains very tough for this community. Obviously heartbreaking as everyone tries to figure out exactly why this shooting happened. And some of the victims names obviously are starting to be released now. We know the numbers have been updated to 25 injured, and of course 7 killed. But the fbi released new information about the 911 calls that were happening during and before the shooting. Apparently the shooter showed up to work. He seemed like he was in distress. Once he was fired, he called 911. The employee called 911. But he left before police could arrive. While he was in that car, apparently he called the fbi tip line. When the state trooper got behind him while he was driving erratically, he had no idea that these phone calls were being made. The shooter reached into the back of his car, pulled out that ar15 and started shooting through the back window. That trooper was injured but survived. During the next part of the shooting spree, he was still calling 911 to say that he was the shooter. That added a lot of confusion to this. In fact, listen to the fbi talk about this investigation. He showed up to work in a very distressed mental state. So its not because he got fired, right . This did not happen because he was fired, which other active shooters have occurred. When he showed up to work, he was already enraged. Reporter we know the youngest murder victim in this was just 15 years old. The oldest was 57. A lot of questions about this case, especially when it comes to background checks. Apparently the shooter was denied buying a gun two times because he failed a background check. Were not sure why just yet, but we know he was still able to get that ar15 style assault rifle. So many questions about that. The atf and the fbi are drilling down on that part of the investigation as we speak, and of course as we learn more information about that, well pass it on to you. Robyn . Thanks for that, ryan.

Its certainly been a very, very busy few hours because we are watching this monster hurricane, dorian. It has been weakening over the past few hours. Its now a category 3 hurricane, but it really is still very dangerous. As you can see from this image from the International Space station, it remains a very large, as i said, dangerous storm. Its been stalled. Now, this is the problem, for more than a day over the northern bahamas. We know at least five deaths are reported. U. S. Coast guard helicopters medevaced 19 people from abaco island, but bringing in emergency aid will have to wait until this hurricane passes. And mandatory evacuations are under way in coastal communities from florida all the way to north carolina. Floridas governor urged everyone to get out while they can. People need to remain vigilant.

With the scale of destruction now coming to light, Haunting Images showing Hurricane Dorians dangerous power as it now takes aim at the u. S. Coastline. Patrick oppmann, cnn, freeport, bahamas. Thanks, patrick, for that. Cnn is monitoring the hurricane minute by minute. Nick valencia is in melbourne, florida, and ivan cabrera is tracking the storm from the cnn centers. Lets begin with ivan. In the last half an hour or so, we have had new information. A little bit of good news. A little bit of good news. It is no longer a category 4, so theres that, right . Were down to a category 3. The problem is its still stuck. Its still stationary. Its not moving at all, and so its still pounding the same very area we were talking about this time last night across grand bahama. Dorian, cat 3, remains stalled over that same area, but we are expecting and anticipating that turn to the north to begin sometime on tuesday, and then it will parallel the coast along florida, which is not going to be a good thing either. But it is going to be better for grand bahama. I mean talk about a worst case scenario. This eye on top of the eastern flank of the island, it just bisected the island entirely. This is a small target and for a cat 5 eye to do that, its quite remarkable. Then for it to stall on top of them is quite something else. 125mileanhour, 125 mph. It is gusting to 155. There it is, movement, zero, stationary, north of zero sometimes. But there is dorian. There are those outer rain bands. The Tropical Storm force winds extend out over 100 miles. We are easily well within that now in florida here. So as weve been checking in with our reporters along the coast, including derek there in stuart, you you see those showers hes been talking about. Each and every one of those kind of the bands coming in, the extreme outer bands of dorian. Those contain Tropical Storm force wind gusts, and i think that will continue right into tonight and tomorrow. Some of the buoys are picking up winds north of 40 miles an hour. Theres our cat 3 hurricane. Remember, category 3 is still a major hurricane. 111 starts that, and were at 125. So this is not going to weaken significantly so that then we can say, florida, youre fine. Youre not because, again, the water getting pushed in. And my main concern will be with this hurricane watch and warning from north to south will be the storm surge and the potential for that flooding that comes in as that water gets pushed along the shore. At times of high tide, that will make things worse. 125 thursday 8 00 p. M. Eventually because of the way the coastline is shaped across the southeastern u. S. , we are looking for a potential landfall sometime on thursday and into friday as a result of that turn there. But it still has a chance for our good friends in the carolinas. There is still the chance it could go out to sea, but we have to prepare for landfall because some of the models are indicating that at least raking the carolinas with the potential of cat 2, cat 3 winds thursday into friday. It will be two weeks at that point weve been covering this thing. Incredible. Thanks so much. Nick valencia is covering the hurricane in melbourne, florida. I want to see what its like where you are right now. Reporter well, robyn, the wind is strengthening with every minute that ticks by. Weve still yet to see any or feel any drops of rain, but that of course is going to change as the Morning Hours progress. It will really be the impact will really be felt here around this time tomorrow morning. I mention a lot of floridians here in and around the area have been keeping a close eye on this track and there is starting to feel like theres some fatigue among the residents. Theyve been prepared for this storm as early as last wednesday. Initially the storm was expected to hit last night, sunday night or rather sunday night into monday morning. The preparations are not as significant as you would think. Yesterday when we were going around this community, we talked to a lot of residents who were under a mandatory evacuation warning but were planning on not evacuating at all. A lot of the conversations i had were people that said that they have been through worse storms before. When this track changed from going to making a direct hit through Central Florida to just grinding up the coast, i think a lot of people let their guard down. Emergency management officials, they dont like the sound of that. Theyve been out front and center trying to reiterate people need to take precautions and telling people they should know these tracks can change at the last minute. Even still, though, robyn, most of the conversations weve had with people are those that are going to wait this out and take their chances. Right now as it stands, it is really just a waiting game. Nick valencia on the ground. Thanks so much, nick.

And another story were watching here at cnn, hong kongs embattled chief executive says she never discuses the possibility of resigning with chinas Central Government despite a leaked audio recording obtained by reuters that had her saying she would quit if she had the chance. Well, cnns anna coren joins us from hong kong with more on that. Hi, anna. Update us. Reporter yeah, robyn. Carrie lam, she attended a Weekly Press Conference this morning that we were at, and she was hit with a barrage of questions following that leaked recording obtained exclusively by reuters that has her on tape saying that if she could quit, she would, if she had the choice. This conversation was had with businesspeople here in hong kong at a private luncheon last week. And first i want to play that audio clip to you. Take a listen. If i had the choice, the first thing is to quit, having made a deep apology is to step down. So i i make a plea to you for your forgiveness. Reporter now, carrie lam was hit with a barrage of questions at that press conference this morning in relation to this audio clip, and she was quite dismissive of it. She said that she was shocked that this recording was made and that it was leaked. This was a private conversation, but she just continued to say, robyn, that she has never considered resigning, and she has never tendered her resignation to beijing. This obviously left journalists in the room very frustrated, including myself. Take a listen to this exchange. The simple and straight answer to your question is i have never tendered any resignation to the central peoples government. So your answer does not arise. I have never tendered any resignation. Reporter i put the question to carrie lam, why wont china let you resign . You were there on tape saying that if you had a choice, you would quit. Why wont china let you resign . And as you could see, she just avoided the question altogether. But in that leaked recording, robyn, she said there is no shortterm solution to these protests, which have know dragged into a third month. Weve seen those violent clashes week after week between protesters and police. She said this is not going to be wrapped up by the 1st of october, which of course is the 70th anniversary of the formation of china, that national day of celebration, and that china, robyn, is playing the long game. Yeah, it certainly is. Anna coren, thanks so much. Great reporting. Appreciate it. In the uk, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has threatened to seek an early election to keep lawmakers in his own party from blocking a nodeal brexit. Uk media says a snap election could come as early as october the 14th if socalled brexit rebels vote against the government in the coming hours. Well, mr. Johnson offered this message to the rebels and to the eu. There are no circumstances in which i will ask brussels to delay. Were leaving on the 31st of october, no ifs or buts. We will not accept any attempt to go back on our promises or scrub that referendum. So as Parliament Reconvenes tuesday after the summer break and protesters gather on the streets of britain, lawmakers look set for an almighty battle over brexit in the coming weeks. Bianca nobilo looks at how Prime Minister johnson got to this point. Reporter in the British Parliament as on the streets, the battle lines have been drawn for what promises to be the fiercest clash yet in this longrunning war over brexit, which has gripped the country for the last three years. Prime minister Boris Johnson digging in on his position to leave the eu by the 31st of october, do or die. Opposition parties not going down without a fight. Coming together in a rare show of unity to launch a new bill which would stop a nodeal brexit. If they do, they will plainly chop the legs out from under the uk position and make any further negotiation absolutely impossible. Reporter adding fuel to the fire, johnson announced he would suspend parliament early, reducing the time left for opposition lawmakers to act. A bold move labeled a constitutional outrage by his opponents with some saying this amounted to the demise of democracy. Hes more interested in running into the arms of donald trump than actually looking after the interests of the ordinary people of this country. Reporter while many in britain have been enjoying a relaxing summer off, with heatwaves across the uk, the Prime Minister has been hard at work, positively skipping through his first diplomatic meetings abroad. But he not only got to rub shoulders with his staunch supporter, President Trump hes going to be a fantastic Prime Minister. Reporter but also appeared to find personal chemistry with his european counterparts. Prime minister, are you hopeful of a deal . Reporter johnson says he still hopes to translate this bon amy into a revised brexit deal ahead of the october 31st deadline. The backstop is no good. Its dead. The Withdrawal Agreement is dead. Its got to go. But there is scope to do a new deal. Reporter but little sign of compromise from either side yet. Johnson has also looked buoyant on the domestic front. Still enjoying the socalled boris bounce, a lift in polls for his conservative party since he took the reins. That combined with the fact that the Prime Ministers working majority in parliament is down to a razorthin margin means many still think an election could be on the cards in the near future. Bianca nobilo, cnn, london. Its possible the u. S. May soon see the beginning of the end of its longestrunning war. The u. S. Envoy for afghanistan says its reached an agreement in principle with the taliban pending the final approval of president donald trump. A top u. S. Diplomat says the u. S. Could start pulling troops from five bases across afghanistan within 135 days as long as the taliban meet conditions set in the agreement. Now, news of the deal comes as violence in afgnistan has spiked. Officials say 16 people were killed, more than 100 wounded in a car bomb attack that targeted a Police Station in kabul. And tensions between the Lebanese Militant Group hezbollah and israel are escalating. Hezbollahs leader said sundays clashes with israel ushered in, quote, a new stage in its confrontation with israel. He says hezbollah no longer has any red lines when it comes to defending lebanon, and he warned israel that if it attacks, then his side will fire back. His remarks came during a televised address on monday. Over the weekend, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said israel would watch to see what hezbollah does next before his military acts.
