florida by midweek or so. so we ll be talking about this for a couple of days, early part of next week especially. so this starting small, 35 mile per hours, gusts to 45, moving west-northwest at 15. we already have tropical storm watches, hurricane watches in effect. the water is very warm in the caribbean as well as the gulf of mexico, so this is going to provide the storm with a ripe environment to thrive. we are going to see this storm intensify rapidly once it gets into the gulf of mexico, and that s the huge concern. this could be a category one storm as it crosses over cuba and a category 2, possibly three, and maybe even higher as we get closer to florida. forecasting right now with 115 mile per hour winds by wednesday afternoon. and i wouldn t be surprised if those winds go even higher. a lot of the forecast models agree on this forecast as well. and hurricane fiona and expected to be the largest storm to hit the nova scotia area in almost 350 years. when is that s

good evening, i m erin burnett. out front tonight, the horror. ukraine s ministry of defense releasing these jarring and grotesque images. this is before and after. the soldier here is ukrainian. the image on the left is him taken during the siege of the azostal steel plant. that is when they were hunkered down not getting the full food and water that they needed. but there he was fighting. and on the right four months later, that is him now, starved, deformed. it is not even possible to imagine what happened to that man. and yet that picture is the reality. it is how russia is treating human beings. and you can t look the other way when you see that. it comes as putin has taken the war to a whole new level today running a sham election in parts of ukraine that are kind of under russian control. i ll show you the ballot. it reads just one question. the wording varies depending on the region. are you in favor of seceding from ukraine and joining the russian federation? and dow
