Through Southern California and into nevada over the next 24 hours. Fox weather Meteorologist Adam Klotz takes look at the forecast for us. A. D. Adam. Gave us our 5 00 update so we have brand new information coming in with still a Tropical Storm, and this update is right up there the 5 p. M. Advisory 60 Miles Per Hour winds so lost 5 Miles Per Hour down to 65 miles an hour at our last still moving to the north at about 23 miles an hour thats very similar as you see spinning right now still just south of the mexican border. However, most of the activities happening out in front of this so folks across Southern California are already really in it as they experience some pretty strong gusts at times and certainly that heavy rain. These are some of the gusts weve seen thus far, these are all Higher Elevations. So right around san diego, los angeles theyre not seeing winds like this. But Higher Elevations look at some of these numbers, 60s, 70s, 80s with the ground saturated likely some tr
coverage of hurricane ian. still very much a hurricane. still extremely dangerous bearing down on orlando this mor morning at this moment. we will go there. there are so many different stories to this devastating storm. one of the most powerful ever to hit florida with winds of 140 miles per hour on landfall. at this point, 20 inches of rain have been measured in so many different locations including here in tampa. you can see some of the limited damages even here in tampa. that appears to be roofing or some kind of siding just torn off of the building. that s just part of the story. the real story is south of here, venice, port charlotte. fort myers. i m hearing a helicopter above me. which is a good sign. maybe they re leaving from here to go help people in need further south and there is so much need. enormous storm surge. 12 feet in some places. just swamped. familiar cities, naples, fort myers. you can see rivers just floating down the middle of the street. as i said, th
to world peace and let no one doubt this is a difficult and dangerous effort on which we have set out. neil: 60 years ago this very month, we were on the brink, the closest the world had ever come to nuclear war. thereby a few other decision it could have been. now we re facing potentially the same predicament, what president biden calls potential armageddon given some of the retaliatory efforts and provocative moves on the part of vladamir putin talking freely about using tactical nuclear weapons of saying nothing of what seems to be daily missile strikes out of north korea, a couple of which just went over japan this past week. we re not even getting into china s provocations of the south china sea and presidents in anything taiwan, and new york, taiwan, south korea and on and on. some are criticizing the president for even mentioning the armageddon word and his massage was to let the message was to let the world be on notice and nothing to do with happening events here

down the road, i get it. i don t think ready for prime time here and these incidents over the last couple of weeks over the utility problems in california and power outages in california and we ve got to rereassess this. what do you think? i think you re both right. on the one hand there s a lotted more work to be done to get electric vehicles to get ready for prime time and at the same time this is the way of the future. this is something that we have to focus on and that s energy dependence and if the power goes out, it s going to be hard to pump gas because those gas stations are not just mechanical. it s electrical pumps that pump gas out of the tankers and bring it up to the nossle and if the nosle and if the u.s. and
