his legacy, birthday, and, of course, his music. it is sunday, july 8. good morning, everyone, i'm randi kaye. we start with another day of record temperatures across the country. the triple-digit highs being blamed for at least 30 deaths across seven states. the extreme heat has also led to power problems. more than 300,000 people were without electricity and, more importantly, air conditioning. some relief may be on the way. a cold front is moving down from the great lakes, heading south. a warning -- the front could bring with it some strong storms with hail, lightning, and damaging winds. extreme heat and more possible storms, of course, seem to be on the way. meteorologist sarah dillinger joins me now. where and when is this cold front going to hit? >> well, the good news is, we've seen this drop through chicago already. your temperatures are going to be back into the 80s today. as we looked at the map of the heat advisories, we're already seeing a big chunk of the country with none of those advisories today. only 12 state now under heat advisories for this afternoon, that's about half of what we've been seeing over the past three days. that cold front you're talking about, look at the temperatures for chicago today. 82 degrees after a stretch of three days of over 100 degrees for that city earlier this week. those guys finally getting relief. columbus, 93. new york, 92. some places are still going to be a little bit warm today. we already saw the front push through yesterday across the northeast, bringing with it severe storm, as well. take a look by tuesday. 81 chicago. 88 in lexington. and 89 in columbus. even d.c., dropping down to 86 degrees. that front is helping to break down the ridge. even though the front doesn't get all the way into the deep south, it's definitely going to be helping to bring relief. those folks in the west, unfortunately, are going to see the heat build there and possible 90s and around 100 as far north as montana. randi?

>> reporter: no. the answer to that just plainly is no. they've not -- they're not sure whether or not this is the caus this is not determined. they haven't said yes, it's ev71, the culprit. what they're doing is they're doing more tests to try and determine exactly what the cause might be. the world health organization was clear in saying that this new information does not solve the problem of this undetermined disease that has been going around, what they're calling a mystery syndrome. we did, however, speak with a doctor who treated two children who had this mystery syndrome. those two children died within 48 hours of being brought to the hospital. one of them died within 24. what they noticed in these children was that they came in with very high fever. they were having much difficulty breathing. and in one case, the child's lungs deteriorated literally hour pby hour. that child died within 24 hours. there's concern not only with doctors trying to treat this illness, they're not sure what it is, but of course parents, very worried about their children here in cambodia because dozens have died after getting this syndrome. >> what is the situation at the hospital? are the doctors overwhelmed? do they think they'll be able to deal with this? >> reporter: they're doing their best. what's happened is in phnom penh, the capital, that's where the majority of the cases have been discovered. mainly because the children's hospital that is here is well-known around the country and many people would bring their child if they're very stockton that hospital in particular -- very sick to that hospital in particular. many people are coming from the southern part of the country, though they're not clustered. there's not one area where they're finding lots and lots of cases but dotted around the south. doctors now are always dealing with other kinds of illnesses like dengue fever and encephalitis. dengue fever is a big problem. about 50 children per day are admitted to the particular hospital that we were in during the rainy season which is now. they're dealing with that. but this particular disease has people worried and concerned. they're really looking for the answer. what is it that is killing these children? >> a terrible, terrible situation there. thank you for the update on that. now here's a rundown of the stories we're working on this morning. a virus infects millions of computers worldwide and the fbi is going to kick some of you off the internet on purpose starting tomorrow. then a wild scene at this ohio gas station when a runaway semi crashes near one of the gas pumps. the family of nelson mandela offers a unike tribute to the i-- unique tribute to the icon ahead of his 95th birthday. his granddaughter tell us what it is. and one on one with ringo starr, the music legend reflects on his days as a member of the fab four. they were incredibly, you know, exciting and important days for me. and the music we made is still important.

>> for me it was a unique story, but i think one that can be applied everywhere. you know, making the film "severe clear," you know, forced me to confront everything that happened. i had shot video footage and got footage from others who were with us. so going through the scenes with the video editors and the director, christian frogga, and reliving all this over and over again for hours on end, weeks on end, was really like a giant therapy session. once i am lou -- once i am loued myself to open up with people that were really strangers, through time that became a shared experience. and i realized how cathartic the process was and the importance of opening up. i'm doing fine. >> you are? >> fine now. >> that's great. we have a lot of troops watching around the world this morning. what advice do you give others? >> the first thing i say is allow yourself to be vulnerable. the second thing i say, is you know, if you think you may have a problem, talk to someone about it. call a buddy. call the wounded warrior project. reach out to the numerous organizations that are willing to help. you know, or you can go to cnn.com/impact and on the left side of the page by a piece i wrote called "there's no shame in not being superman," you can click on there and get some resources to help you. if there's anybody who knows anybody who's struggling, they need to get the book and read it. it is a story -- it's every man's story. >> you mention the documentary "severe clear," i want to look at a short clip and ask you something about it. >> sure. >> didn't take long to figure out that because of it, war gravitates toward uncertainty, chaos, and disorder.
