>> okay, alex, thanks. in haiti the destruction severe. officials warning of a life and death situation. abc's linsey davis is in port-au-prince right now. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning, a hurricane warning does remain in effect for this area and while the capital city largely dodged a bullet, there are some rural areas that are absolutely devastated, and fears remain for mudslides, and possibly cholera. winds reaching 145 miles an hour tearing through haiti. category 4 hurricane bringing torrential rainfall. the coastal town here swept away by flooding. flash floods ripping through villages. this man dangerously tries to cross the rushing waters. you can see the river absolutely raging. it's already 15 feet higher from where it would normally be, and still it continues to rise. police closed down the bridge. people in this village are unable to make it to port-au-prince by car. the damage in some of haiti's rural areas could be catastrophic. the majority of people live in makeshift homes. before the storm struck authorities tried evacuating the to leave fearing theft. the real concern now with all this rain, mud slides. this morning assessing all the damage in the impoverished country is proving difficult with communications cut off in many areas after bridging gave way and roads became impassable. standing water and mounds of trash fill several streets in the capital city. the haitian government asked the u.s. government for help in their relief effort. though, the full toll and devastation here on this island is not yet known. the death tollos caribbean is now up to at least 11. george. >> okay. linsey davis, boy, what a horrible situation down there in haiti. >> a lot of concern there, george, but also a lot of concern here at home as well. as we mentioned the carolinas, georgia and florida all under states of emergency and millions are preparing to evacuate ahead of matthew. abc's gio benitez is in miami. good morning, gio. >> reporter: michael, good morning to you. those hurricane warnings, and those mean that conditions could start in just 36 hours. this morning, millions from the florida keys to the carolina coast bracing for the worst. south carolina governor nikki haley joining north carolina, florida and georgia to declare a state of emergency. ordering all 1 million coastal residents to begin evacuating. >> and make sure you get out of harm's way. >> reporter: traffic already piling up last night after it was announced starting at 3:00 a.m., today 100 miles of i-26 east will be reversed. you can leave the coastline but you won't be able to get back in. with gas going fast, drivers are forming long lines to fuel up, stocking up on propane and plywood. >> we jumped to, like, four different stations to get gas, and no gas. >> reporter: the short supplies even triggering panic at the pump. some people even calling 911. police urging residents to be patient. food and water supplies dwindling by the minute. >> crazy, all the water gone. >> reporter: matthew could be the biggest mass evacuation america has seen since floyd in 1999 when 2.6 million residents in five states were ordered from their homes. and you may remember the el faro disaster, a ship that sank a year ago during a hurricane that killed 33 people. well, reports this morning that the company may be sending another ship into this storm's path. no doubt, this is a huge concern, that's a massive evacuation. >> it certainly is. and i used to live in charles, south carolina and i know for a fact they take hurricanes seriously. a reason it's called the low country. because many parts of irt it are below sea level. the entire southeastern coastline is at risk along with charleston. to ginger with a look at the storm's path. >> and, amy, i want to get hamas and as a category 4 the current track has it thursday affecting parts of southeast and central florida and runs parallel and hugs along the coast right through southeast georgia. close to charleston and wilmington and, of course, where this track takes it out to sea, the national hurricane center puts this together and that is exactly where we'll go now, to the director. dr. rick knabb. and rick, as we look at this, no direct landfall but there will still be huge impact, right? >> right. we don't know for sure if matthew is going to come ashore in the u.s. starting with the potential in florida or not. it is possible that the core of matthew could come ashore in the hurricane warning area in florida, so people need to be preparing for the major possibility of a storm coming ashore. but even if the center stays offshore you could still have hurricane conditions on the coast, you don't have to be near the center of the storm to be at the center of action in land areas. >> i think that's exactly what people need to hear this morning. the heavy rain, storm surge, >> you're welcome. thank you. that heavy rain we're talking about want to show it to you graphically. this is what it would look like. up to six plus inches, so you could see ten plus in some of these coastal area, you add the waves, the winds, that surge, this could be bad even if it just hugs parallel. >> we know you will be tracking it, and we'll come back to that later. white house and all the fallout from the first and only debate for the vice presidential candidates with 34 days until the final votes. tim kaine and mike pence went toe-to-toe and tom llamas has more from farmville, virginia. >> reporter: two very different nator tim kaine aggressive, ate. forcing governor mike pence to defend donald trump's policies and his statements. the debate was heated at times but also very difficult to watch with all the interruptions. minutes, the vice presidential candidates sitting just inches from each other showing they, too, know how to fight. >> six types tonight i have said to governor pence i can't imagine how you can defend your running mate's position on one issue after the next. and in all six cases he's refused to defend -- >> let's -- don't put words in my mouth. >> reporter: from the start senator tim kaine playing attack dog mentioning donald trump around 165 times, spouting what sounded like rehearsed attacks. >> president in hillary clinton or do you want a you're fired president in donald trump? >> reporter: governor mike pence on defense but not losing his cool. >> well, first, let me say i appreciated you're hired, you're fired thing. senator, you have used that a whole lot, and your running mate used a lot of -- kaine kept firing regardless if it was the same attack. >> he called mexicans rapists and criminals. he called them rapists and criminals. rapists and criminals -- >> reporter: at one point, pence showing his frustration. >> you whipped out that mexican thing again. >> can you defend it? >> there are criminal aliens in this country, tim, who have come into this country illegally who are perpetrating violence. >> reporter: also frustrated debate moderator elaine quijano. >> you are a donald trump's apprentice. >> i think i'm still on my time. >> reporter: constantly having to break up the back and forth. g >> the people at home cannot understand either one of you when you speak over each other. >> reporter: front and center at the debate, trump's tax issues claiming a $916 million loss in 2005. >> used it the way he was supposed to and -- >> how do you know that? you haven't seen his taxes. >> because he's created a business that's worth billions of dollars today. >> how do you know that? >> reporter: pence putting the spotlight back on kaine and clinton claiming the democrats avalanche of attacks. >> if donald trump said all the things you said he said in the way you said he said them, he still wouldn't have a fraction of the insults that hillary clinton leveled when she said that half of our supporters were a basket of deplorables. >> tom, as you pointed out, that was a pretty polished performance from mike pence and we know trump was tweeting during the debate said he thought pence did a good job but wondered if he was rankled when he did not defend trump and his record. >> reporter: it's still unclear. this morning, the trump campaign was saying governor mike pence clearly won that debate, and right after the debate, trump sent out a couple of tweets. this one saying, mike pence won big. we should all be proud of mike, but in the middle of the debate, he seemed to be trolling senator looks like an evil crook out of the "batman" movies. >> love those retreats. thanks very much. reaction from the clinton c's cecilia vega also there.e. she joins us now from farmville, virginia, with the latest. reporter: good morning. i guess it's no surprise the clinton campaign is declaring ctory, a big win for them too and the pin is in full effect this morning. this, tim kaine, after the debate, he showed up at a watch party, all smiles and you can see him right there. take a listen to what he told reporters after that debate. >> it was intense. >> you were awesome! it was the fst so to the clinton campaign, they say kaine's job was one thing, he had to hold mike pence accountable for donald trump's km comments and his policies, and they say he did that. you heard him in tom's story talk about mexicans are rapists repeatedly and brought it up four times, a repeated line of attack but the clinton camp, one aide is saying not even pence could defend donald trump. mike pence last night to shift the focus of this race last night given donald trump and his performance, and they say he fell short of that overnight. >> one of the other big headlines from last night, were all of those interruptions, kaine taking some heat for that. >> reporter: yeah, he certainly is, even from clinton allies. you know, former chief obama strategist david axelrod said it did not serve him well but one kaine aide told me he did what a vice president is supposed to do on that stage, fought the fight, guys. they say this morning, t >> all right, cecilia vega, thanks so much. >> all those interruptions are what everyone is talking about this morning and abc's jon karl is also covering the debate for us. and good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, michael. for all the talk of donald trump interrupting hillary clinton. in that first debate, these two talked over each other even more. especially tim kaine who found himself repeatedly scolded by the moderator. take a listen. >> i know you can't -- >> senator, please, this is the governor's two minutes. >> don't put my words in my i'm happy to defend him and most of what you said is completely false, and the american people know that. >> senator, please, this is governor pence's two minces. >> reporter: we crunched the numbers. pence interrupted kaine 40 times but kaine interrupted pence almost twice as often 70 times and that's almost two interruptions for every minute that pence spoke, but pence kept the fact-checkers busy. on several occasions, he denied that donald trump said things that donald trump did, in fact, to me. >> governor pence said inarguably, vladimir putin is a better leader than president obama. >> that is absolutely inaccurate. >> and i just think a guy -- >> said he's been stronger on the world stage. >> no, he said leader. >> reporter: but pence did say it and he said it less than a month ago. >> i think it's inarguable that vladimir putin has been a stronger leader in his country >> reporter: so the bottom line while pence will win points on style in this debate, there were several points where he was, let's just say, george, less than factual. >> okay, jon karl, thanks very much. let's talk about more with matthew dowd and cokie roberts and pick up on the point jon was making there. mike pence, cool, calm and collected through most of the debate. tim kaine on the attack and putting his points on the board so in the end was there a winner? >> i think it depends how you judge it. i think mike pence came out ahead but didn't help the ticket. didn't help donald trump. i think tim kaine didn't help himself but he helped hillary clinton. mike pence to me was a little bit like a running back that runs well with the ball but doesn't block for the quarterback and let the quarterback get sacked a number of times and that's donald trump. >> here we go with sports analogies. >> you knew it was coming. >> i think he actually -- pence actually did help with the conservatives who were nervous about donald trump. he was calm, cool, collected. he was a solid conservative. anyway, but he probably made them a lot more comfortable. kaine helped with women and particularly at the end where he talked about roe versus wade and women's ability to make choices themselves. >> so they were each speaking to their bases so it shows where this campaign is going in the final 34 days, matthew dowd. they're not really worried much about the voters who are sort of undecided right now. each side is really trying to speak to their base and get them energized. >> i think they decided which is probably an accurate assessment that the undecides are probably not going to vote. the undecideds can't stand either candidate. don't trust either and is not connected to the campaign and all about movement and watch the polls and they move based upon whose supporters are most energized. right now hillary clinton's supporters have caught up to donald trump and i don't think that changed last night. >> cokie, i wonder what donald trump can take away coming up sunday night. mike pence in many ways did what donald trump should have done, not take the bait. >> and if he had done it with we'll see if he can do it. he has trouble not taking the bait. people get under his skin and he gets mad. >> donald trump doesn't need to settle substance. he needs to figure out the right style and tone. >> this might be his last big chance sunday. >> there's two more debates, but as the debates go, the ratings drop. he needs to win this debate or it's very difficult to win this election. >> that's a town hall debate with our martha raddatz and it is going to be an interesting one for trump to handle because he can't get mad at jane q. citizen like he gets mad at us. >> thank you both very much. and of course, that presidential debate is sunday night here on abc. as cokie said martha raddatz co-moderating with anderson cooper of cnn and i'll anchor the live coverage at 9:00 eastern. now back to ginger. >> that's what we'll do. anyone from virginia to maine, this is for you. the latest computer modeling taking that trough we've been talking about and pushing it out to sea so bad for the southeast. your local weather in 30 seconds. first though, the cool cities brought to you by edward jones. gives way to clouds. a slight chance for a stray shower this morning to early afternoon. most will stay dry with highs reaching easily to the low- mid 70s on breezy south winds. rain chances increase coming up here on "gma" that georgia father on trial for the hot car death of his toddler son. we'll tell you what he was caught saying on tape right after the little boy's body was discovered. you're acting so funny, what's wrong, billy?

>> well, i find it very ironic that he, justin ross harris started crying during his over that when he saw and realized, realized his son was dead, he never shed a tear. another thing that struck me is this, maybe i'm projecting but i recently lost my father and i remember there in the hospital they said, okay, you can leave now and there was just something innate, i did not want to leave him. justin ross harris had no problems leaving his child's body. that very, very disturbing. a lot has been made of justin ross harris' sexting including allegedly to an underage girl. do i like that? no. i want to hold my nose at it, but that does not a murder make. what will be more probative or helping the state prove their case is if they can come through with what was alleged in some of the search warrants that he had how long does it take an animal or a dog to die in a hot car? was he searching a new life, child-free? and another thing, i drove that exact drive that he took that morning. he went into chick-fil-a with his son. not a drive-through. they all saw the son, cooper, happy, laughing. put him back in the car, he had less than two minutes to drive. what, he forgot his son was alive in two minutes? how can that be? it can't. >> so you hit all the key pieces of evidence that we'll hear from the prosecution. in terms of the defense, you heard in steve's report that harris' ex-wife is going to take the stand. what do you think that will do to bolster the account? she's expected to say it is an accident and supports her ex-husband. >> okay, this is what i would do. if i were the prosecution i would not call her and i'll tell you why. because if you let the defense call her, then you'll have her on cross-examination. gauntlet and said, look, the state is not going to call her, we will. okay, great, call her. i'd rather have her on cross-examination. what do i think of her? "a," she says she -- she doesn't believe this was intentional. it was an accident. that her husband that she knows so well would never have done that. well, did she know he was with hookers? did she know he was cheating? if she didn't know that much, how does she know he wouldn't lie to save his own skin? that's what i would argue. >> a lot coming up in the court case. nancy grace, thanks so much for joining us, as always. >> thank you. michael, you got the big board. >> i got the big board. coming up, ben stiller's secret health battle. how he discovered he had cancer. the test he says saved his life. we're back in two minutes to talk about that. >> yeah. on my long-term control medicine. once-daily breo prevents asthma symptoms. breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. breo won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. breo opens up airways to help improve breathing for a full 24 hours. breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. do not take breo more than prescribed. see your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. ask your doctor if 24-hour breo could be a missing piece for you. see if you're eligible for looking for balance in your digestive system? try align probiotic. for a non-stop, sweet treat goodness, hold on to your tiara kind of day. get 24/7 digestive support, with align. the #1 doctor recommended probiotic brand. now in kids chewables. time now for the big board. to weigh in on top stories and let's start with our own dr. richard besser right here and the story plays off ben stiller. he's opened up about a recent bout with prostate cancer. diagnosed two years ago, aggressive form of cancer and he talked about it with howard stern. >> at first, i didn't know what was going to happen. i was scared. you know, i was scared. i didn't know -- you know, the one thing it does, it just stops everything in your life when you get a diagnosis of cancer. i was really lucky. as i led know, i was someone who had a case that could be treated. there are a lot of people kwho who can't. >> because it's too late. >> they discover it too late. >> so, rich, he says he was really lucky. this test was necessary for him. wouldn't have discovered it. otherwise, but there's a real debate about this test in so he >> he had a psa test, a screening test for prostate cancer that would have been high. they would have done a biopsy and found this. but this is a really tricky question. at all men have this done and the government panel recommends that men not have this done. so it's a tricky issue and here's why. most prostate cancer is very slow growing and will cause no harm, but this test detects all prostate cancer, and if you have positive and surgery, and you're convinced it saved your life but the studies looking at psa testing showed little if any effect at all in deaths from prostate cancer and the surgery and radiation from prostate cancer very high complication rate, 20% to 30% of men are left with sexual dysfunction or other problems. >> there's so much controversy surround this test. what do you think? what do you think a man should do. >> you'll weigh it differently. people will hear ben's story and say, wow, i want that test. you never want to have this unless you sit down with your doctor and say, let's talk about the pros and cons. a lot of people say, just go the test and they get a result, and they say, it's a little high. they say, i didn't think about that before. >> i understand not treating it if the treatment is very aggressive and it's not absolutely essential but what's the harm in taking the test? >> the problem is that 80% to 90% of men told when they have a high value, go on to have the bi biopsy. why not, let's do that test and if shows a problem almost all n not just a blood test, it leads to other things that could have harm. >> wow. well, tricky. i got to think about that. now to good news for tennis star maria sharapova. her two-year doping ban reduced to 15 months and overnight the grand slam winner sounding off about it on "charlie rose." take a look. >> i was so shocked in the first place because i was taking a substance that was completely legal for ten years and then all of a sudden i'm sitting in my bedroom, i get an e-mail from the itf saying, i had this violation. i just thought how could i have not known this? have known and i did not. >> well, abc news contributor christine brennan joining us now. christine, you hear what maria sharapova said, i didn't know. there's so many ways i should have known but she was suspended. do you think they did the right thing by reducing her sentence? >> michael, i do not. i believe that she should have served the full two-year suspension, rules are rules. if you want to have rules and want to have drug testing, she twice failed the drug test for it and this notion she says, i didn't know, how could i have known? she received up to five e-mails in december of last year telling her this drug was about to be banned. she took it for ten years. it's a performance enhancer. now she says she's opening e-mails. i like maria sharapova a lot and she's great for the game but this is the dog ate my homework. >> isn't it a debate over that? over whether or not this is a performance enhancer? she says it isn't and, rich, i want to bring you back in on this. what does it do? >> meldonium, it was developed in latvia to improve endurance and it's believed that it helps you recover -- well, you know, there's not a lot of science that shows it's works but taken for that reason and because it supposedly helps you recover from your workout faster and lets you go longer. so whether or not it truly does that is uncertain, but that's why people use it. >> wow. >> thank you, guys, bo presidential debate looking at a little different way. social media erupted taking aim at the candidates and jon karl back with more on that and they were having a lot of fun with this on twitter, jon. >> absolutely, i think the funniest moment of the debate actually was when the republican party on their website declared mike pence the clear winner. now, george, that may not be surprising, but they posted that before the debate started. oops. so that really is -- stuck out for me and this moment during >> donald trump can't start a twitter war with miss universe without shooting himself in the foot. he loves dictators and has a permanent mt. rushmore. vladimir putin, kim jong-un. moammar ghadhafi and saddam hussein. >> oh, come on. >> so, george, michael, i used to live about two miles from mt. rushmore. so after that moment, i spent a fair amount of moment trying to imagine kim jong-un on that. >> well, you lived near mt. rushmore in yeah, yewe talk about that.

reagan said something interesting about nuclear proliferation back in the 1980s. he said the problem with nuclear proliferation is that some fool or maniac could trigger a catastrophic event. and i think that's who governor pence's running mate is. exactly who -- >> oh, come on. >> who ronald reagan warned us about. >> kaine repeatedly challenged pence to defend donald trump's most inflammatory comments but pence refused to take the bait. hillary clinton. >> if donald trump had said all the things that you said he said in the way you said he said them, he still wouldn't have a fraction of the insults that hillary clinton leveled when she said that half of our supporters were a basket of deplorables. >> now, pence and kaine interrupted each other more than 100 times. felt a little bit more than that in case you were counting but one sign of a good night for more twitter followers than kaine. sadly no rematch between the two but four days till the big showdown between hillary clinton and donald trump co-moderated by martha raddatz. looking forward to that. >> that is sunday night. now it's time for "pop news," lara. >> thank you very much, george. good morning, everybody.

cameras. this is a test. the study from northern arizona university has put gender roles in a nutshell concluding while lady squirrels carry -- care for their babies and gather nuts for leave their burrow mostly to, quote, hang out. >> that's about right. >> scientists discovered this by putting fitness collars on squirrels. initially they were looking to determine why male squirrels were more prone to getting eaten by predators. well, now they know. the homer simpson-like lifestyle just chilling in the sun makes them more likely to end up a tasty treat. >> why was this study done? i'm just curious. >> to see why male squirrels get eaten more readily. >> oh, okay. >> to humiliate male squirrels, obviously. >> like the male human. >> and that's "pop news," everybody. >> all right, great

oasis. introducing the completely redesigned e-class. the best or nothing. welcome back to "gma." i haven't had a chance to show you the wave heights. the projected wave heights as it gets closer, hurricane matthew, florida, could reach 15 plus, even 20 feet is the red and the white is represented by 25 feet. that would be an incredible amount of water. remember, that's not just at the shore, but it's the piling up of the rain on top and that's where you get issues even if the storm does not make landfall. it hugs along and that piling of water plus water falliclouds. at chance for a stray shower this morning to early afternoon. most will stay dry with highs reaching easily to the low- mid 70s on breezy south winds. rain chances here now with michael j. fox and those shoes. we're going

tracy on set and married 28 yean four great kids and while starring in "spin city," fox revealed his private battle with parkinson's disease, a chronic and progressive neurological condition that has no known cure. since 2000 the michael j. fox foundation has funded over $650 million in parkinson's research and today mike is here with a big announcement to help change even more lives. a big welcome to michael j. fox. thanks. great to have you back here. >> this is great. >> you got to tell us about the shoes. back in "back to the future 2," i wore a pair of shoes called the nike mag. they were self-lacing and space age and funny how much modern shoes follow that pattern and looked like the mags, but the mags in 2011, nike gave or put up 1500 pair for auction and it raised $10 million for the foundation. >> $10 million? >> to help research but these sneakers, people love sneakers and they love "back to the future." so it was a perfect storm, and there's a big demand. so now they're -- there's a lottery, $10, go online, to our foundation, our website and get a $10 chance at a pair of nike mags. >> for such a good cause. i'm lucky to serve on the board of the foundation with you and you guys have raised so much, $650 million for parkinson's research, and this is a pretty exciting time because you're on the cutting edge of a real revolution. i mean, the last -- the first year of the foundation we realized this was a huge not to untie and i was really enthusiastic but it's a major undertaking and to mix metaphors we're chumming out in the water. all different areas of research whether drug research or genetic research or whatever, what have you, and now the big fish are starting to come up. big drug companies are following our lead on compounds we've targeted, and we've had follow-on funding and we will fund a pharmaceutical company to do initial research and derisk it for them and then what happens they make breakthroughs and it's open. >> you're starting to learn a more from people like you who have parkinson's with wearable technology and can really teach us so much about what's going on. >> the technology is amazing. the watches and the devices that people can wear that track the disease 24/7. picture of the life of a person with parkinson's and the thing about parkinson's, everyone has their own version so what we're doing is through research is finding ways to attack whatever issue you may have, and right now we have a one size fits all drug therapy and we need to find other drugs that target specific versions of the disease that affect different people differently. >> and all of you at home can help entering the drawing for these pair of nike mags it. you can do it on the nike website. the foundation website. also on our "gma" website as well. the drawing ends october 11th. 100% goes to the michael j. fox foundation. thanks for coming in. >> my pleasure. >> sarah jessica parker is here >> good morning.
