Are in New Jersey and at least 4. 5 million people are still under Flood Warnings at this hour as swollen rivers continue to present a danger to so many residents. Weve already seen thousands of people in multiple states being rescued from the high waters. Millions of others are now beginning to clean up the debris, clearing out their flooded basements, trying to move downed trees, many of them off of their cars.

It is the second largest fire in california history. The Caldor Fire just outside of Lake Tahoe has destroyed even more homes. At least 622 homes and counting. It is raging right now toward even more populated areas. Only about 25 of the Caldor Fire is contained. Both of those fires have multiple Evacuation Orders and warnings in place.

Kind of weather, john, that this place never sees. No, we just dont see something quite like this. Again, nine deaths now up here, which is more than when Hurricane Ida Hit Louisiana as far as we know. We may learn more from louisiana and mississippi, but nine deaths from what was a really bad rainstorm here tells you just how catastrophic it is.
