meteorologist bill karans. bill, give us an update. in florida we ve been okay. we haven t had too many problems with water or winds. wind speeds in the high 40s. we don t know if we ll get the core of these windsover ov over but we know we have this afternoon s high tide and then overnight and we ll wait and see how close the storm gets to the coast, and even if it s near the coast, we re going to get heavy rain moving inland and heavy rain can cause a lot of problems. the immediate concern, the high tide is coming into the savannah area. we expect it around 1:00, and it s predicted to be the third highest water level ever recorded in savannah, going back to the 1940s. that s significant. that s getting to the point where it s almost historic. charlds ton, your high tide is expected to be after midnight.
hernandez is breaking her silence. she s saying she has some doubts about the story about him in prison. severe storms putting 13 million people at risk today with the threats of tornadoes. the heat is building. bill karans has the forecast coming up next. you totanobody s hurt, new car. but there will still be pain. it comes when your insurance company says they ll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it.

hurricane joaquin. the coast guard is searching for air and sea. men time, mean on the islands of the bahamas sit with high winds and surf. the good news is the hurricane is expected to track back out to sea instead of directly slamming the eastern seaboard. many places here along the coast, joaquin s remnants are life threatening. two systems combined have the power to dump up to 20 inches of rain. high winds and flooding claimed a second life in the carolina after a tree fell on a car. high water, as well. some roads as you can see here completely flooded. bill karans joins me now. what are we watching? joaquin is not the issue. the issue right now is that pressure gradient on the east coast. i mean, we got done and getting the tail end of the high tide
