hurricane force wind gusts, life-threatening floods, and half a year's worth of rain in less than 48 hours. we are in the middle of it all. a jury has just started deliberating the fate of the oxford high school shooter's mother. it is an unprecedented case. will she be held accountable for what her son did? we are keeping close watch for the verdict >> and boeing is facing a new issue that was with his jets that could cause further delay. i'm kate balduan with john berman and sara sidner. this is "cnn central."

at this moment nearly 40 million people across california are under flood advisories as a powerful storm dumps record rainfall on that state. emergency responders were busy overnight rescuing people trapped in floodwaters. cr crews saved three people were clinging to a tree. a state of emergency has been declared in eight california counties. powerful wind gusts slamming the state. more than 50,000 customers don't have power. let's get waiting to our meteorologist. what can they expect over the next couple of hours? >> additional rainfall, unfortunately, which is the last thing they need as well as gusty winds. here's a look as where it's raining and snowing. still have rain showers even he have at times across northern and central california, but by far the heaviest rain is focused over portions of southern california including the city of los angeles. this is where we have a lot of

flood watches and even flash flood warnings in effect. the flash flood warning means they are dealing with landslides across many of these areas and that may continue for the next several hours. here's a look at mission creek. you can see the water right across the bridge and the rivers, creeks and streams will continue to swell throughout the day because all of the water that came into the mountains has to flow back down. it will continue to fill up a lot of rivers, creeks and streams as welled a roadways. we're looking at new totals coming in. several areas picking up over nine inches of rain in just the last two days. some of the other areas, even downtown los angeles, picking up five and a half inches. keep in mind these areas are expected to get an additional one to three inches on top of what they already have and that's why you have such a is widespread area for potential

flooding today. the target point will be across southern california including answer which is under the very rare high risk yet again for the second day in a row. to put this in perspective. you only get high risks issued on fewer than 4% of the days per year on average, but they account for more than 80% of flood damage as well as near hi 40% of flood-related deaths. again, something to take very seriously. another concern is also power outages. still looking at more than half a million people without power in the state of california right now, and those could continue to tick up, especially when you see the wind reports. over 100 miles per hour for the rest of the day today. still likely to get some in excess of 60 miles per hour. >> look at these wind speeds, all right. dangerous moments to be sure. thanks so much. >> we'll continue to talk about that. joining me now is the public information information for the ventura county fire department. we love our fire department and know how much work you guys do. you're joining us now via phone.

what are you seeing out there? what are some of the problems that you are actually encountering as we're looking at some of these pictures across southern california that are just, you know, trees down. there are rivers where there shouldn't be. tell us what you're seeing. >> thanks for having us all. ventura county, we're doing pretty good. we're watching the band of storms affecting the eastern and southern portions of ventura county right now. our western europe and northern portions got hit pretty hard yesterday where there were multiple water rescues and localized flooding into some homes and residences. for the most part the storm was predict. what helped us a lot is the storm didn't have any torrential downpours, but it was a steady state of rain. a lot longer than we're used to and at a much greater rate. we had in our area nine inches of rain. that's half to a third of our normal rain for the entire year. >> yeah. i mean, that's a lot of rain. knowing that area, ventura is a

beautiful play, but it can be very, very dangerous. any threat. are you hearing from any threat about any potential landslides, anything happening an that trent which often happens when you get this amount of rain coming in and coming down those hills and the mountains? >> right. the hillsides are becoming saturated with the two storms that we've had in the last 12 to 14 tase, and so we are seeing some localized debris flows coming across the roads and our caltrans department is doing a good job in keeping them open. there's usually roads that are not a freeway but more of a two-way road. some of them are currently closed and we're working on getting them opened as soon as problem. >> looking at these pictures now from early this morning of a rescue happening where there's a helicopter, there is a rescue worker going down to get out of flooded waters. the floods, are those things you've most concerned about?

the. a rain, powerful winds, is it the water that's the biggest concern still? >> it is, but honestly, our biggest concern is life safety. >> okay? so we worked really hard with our association partners to help notify people living in the homeless encampments and river bottoms to help notify them. we did execute the city of fire department did, a rescue with the hook and ladder truck from the 101 freeway yesterday about california at night for an individual trapped on an island. it's really rippingy to b-- riso be out in those conditions. if you see water or water moving near you, turn around and don't droufnlt we've been successful at rescuing mostly everybody from vehicles. haven't had any fatalities. had a lot of car wrecks at this point in time and fortunate that no one has gotten killed or seriously injured. >> the rain event hasn't been as

devastating as you thought so facts and circumstances but there have been rescues and you still want people to be very careful as you go through what's an atmospheric river. appreciate the work that you do there in ventura county. >> thanks very much. thanks for having me. >> kate? >> a jury has gone behind closed doors in michigan to deliberate over a verdict in a first of its kind trial. what to do with the mother of a school shooter. should that mother be held responsible for the crimes of her son? this is a son who killed four students at his school back in 2021. cnn's jean casarez is outside the courthouse in pont yammiac. you've been following every moment of that trial. you're showing video of the moment that jennifer crumb plea went into the courthouse. what do we expect today, jean? >> reporter: we now know that the final jury is six men and six women.

it is equal. they are deliberating. you know, they took notes through this whole trial, so in that deliberation room they will have the notes and the jury instructions. they will have the exhibits. there's cookies, there's candy. there's oranges to make them comfortable but the judge made it very apparent during the jury instructions saying there could be more than one cause of death. yes, ethan crumbley pulled the trigger and is the one who shot the four victims at oxford high school but his mother can also be responsible for causing the death of those students, and she really explained in detail what gross negligence is. number one, it's that jennifer crumbley knew, absolutely knew that her son could cause injury to others than she could use ordinary care to stop that from happening, not allowing access to a gun, taking him home from school. she did not exercise that ordinary care, and here's what's

real important, that a reasonable person, just your average citizen knowing everything that jennifer cr crumbley realized her son was cape able of mass injury to others. >> is there a ski you'd of what the jury deliberations could be like? has the judge set any expectations? >> formally they deliberate until 5, but at this courthouse you can deliberate until evening and the judge said before the jurors went out, if you don't reach a verdict today, i might send the alternates or some of them home starting tomorrow, so nobody knows. they will get right to work. there's over 400 exhibits. the prosecution alone, more less

the defense. normally they take a straw poll and then they take it from there, but i think it's anybody's guess how long this will take. >> so thankful you're there. we're following this very closely throughout the day. >> interesting though that they can deliberate there until the evening. new polling shows what a potential biden/trump matchup could look like in november and when president biden's best path to victory might be. also coming up, for us moments ago, donald trump called the bipartisan bothered deal a death wish for the republican party. how much sway will his words have?

there has been an eruption of new political polling over the last few days showing the state of a perspective race between president biden and donald trump. senior political reporter harry enton is here to talk about it as well. >> a lot of new national polling out here, and we see a range of different result. the nbc news poll that came out yesterday had trump up by five. that matches what a reuters/ipsos poll had last week, trump up by five and clowe close to a cnn poll up by four and very different than the quick yammiac university poll that had biden up by five points. i had a viewer email saying you spoke about quickiac and another

poll that are trump up snow's really a range of polling that we get and sometimes this does in fact occur, john? let's pause for a moment. >> yes. >> and falk what we should do with these numbers when they seem different. >> yes. >> what should we do, how about do something called average the poll result, okay? averaging. we gotti get a lot of different polls, margins of error and we average them. what do we see. we do in fact see donald trump is ahead by two points in the average of poll, and the other thing i want to mention here, john, the polling at least on the average has opinion fairly consistent which does show donald trump ahead of donald trump by a small but noticeable margin, two points back in january and two point back in december, so it's not a surprise that we'll occasionally get that poll that shows biden up by a little bit given that trump has a small average.

margins of errors around. >> look at the trends. follow the trends. don't get caught up in any one number. >> correct. >> harry, if you're part of president biden's re-election team right now, what are you seeing, if anything, if you're looking for rays of light there? what's your ray of light in. >> normally when we talk about turnout, democrat like the idea we like larger turnout, the more people in the electorate the better it is for the democratic candidate. i'm not sure that's necessarily the case. this is the biden versus trump margin. registered vote, all voters in the electorate. a "new york times" poll had trump up by two, the ipsos pole had trump up by five shl. among likely voters went from president trump plus to to biden plus 2 and the ipsos poll that had trump up by five and among those certain to vote it slinks down to a tie so what we pay see

is pollsters putting out the likely to vote numbers could benefit biden. his voters seem more intent on voting while trump voters are less inclined. >> this is a smaller pool than this is and this is the reverse of what we've seen over the last 50 years of polling generally speaking, likely voters benefit republicans more than democrats. >> that why might be why democrats have been dominating the specks election because they have the smallest turnout. >> harry, great to see you this morning. >> kate. >> thank you, sir. joining us to talk about this is cnn political commentator and former communications director for vice president kamala harris, not scott jennings, jamal simmons will be joining us. he'll make a dramatic entrance mid-segments, and also scott jennings cnn former special assistant to former president george w. bush. let's get into it and it maybe we'll allow jamal to join us mid. you looked at the numbers,

specifically the new number numbers that came out over the weekend and you said these numbers are a catastrophe for biden. why do you see this as worse than some of the similar numbers? what do you think about what hair and john were just talking about it? >> well, when you look down the issues, every single issue that's important to americans except for one, biden is losing on by a substantial margin. the one issue where there's an abortion. i'm dubious can you run a one-issue presidential campaign but they may try. each on the question who will protect democracy it was evenly split, but big number that continues to jump out at me poll after poll and it this one, joe biden, only 23% of americans think he has the mental fitness to be president so whatever message willing, ad strategies, speeches you can soften your numbers on the economy or immigration or any other policy issue, how do you solve it when people have concluded that you are not fit to be the president of the united states today let alone four more years? think to me that's the glowing

red light on the dashboard for the biden campaign right now. >> don't glow over the democracy number either. that seemed like a red light from my perspective. i mean, the two men are essentially tied on the issue of protecting democracy. 43% of voters preferring biden and 41% preferring trump, but if you're joe biden and you've essentially based your entire first campaign, largely based the beginning part of your re-election campaign on defending democracy and these are the numbers you're putting up right now, if nothing else does that show the campaign message isn't working on this? >> well, the question of saving democracy means something very different to biden voters and trump voters. >> right. >> and i'll take up for jamal here since he can't join us yet but if i had to say something on the biden side of this poll, the one thing that gave them a ray of light was on donald trump's role in january 6. the question was asked if he's convicted of a felony, would you

then change your mind about the election, and in that case biden was slightly ahead on the ballot test against trump? however, however, the pollster who took the poll said he kind of threw cold water on it. i'm not sure. these voters say they are switching today back to biden, they don't like biden so he was even dubious they would come off ofterm they have staked so much of this presidency and their messaging on the question of saving democracy. i mean, frankly, at a trat gist i'm asking this question. if you believe democracy is on the ballot and you believe that your winning is critical to the future of democracy, it's a fair question for voters to -- for democrats to ask, you know, you're rolling the dice on a guy who looks like he's in pretty rough shape against trump right now and on the other side of the equation, thought this in the 2022 mid-term, thought republicans were going to roll and independents would go with republicans and they sided with the democrats so there is some empirical data that voters may buck this kind of polling. if you're looking at numbers and

you're in my profession you have to look at this and say lots of problems for the democrat president. >> on the number of if trump is convicted of a felony, trump is biden 43 and trump is 41. brian kemp was asked about it this morning. i think i would definitely have concerns investigate for someone who has been convicted. do you think -- how real do you think this is? it's one thing to ask it in a poll when we're this many months fraught a general, right, but how worried do you think folks should be about this factor, not if he's going to be convicted, what people's reaction to it will be? >> well, there's a cohort of voters who have repeatedly told pollsters and told entrance and exit pollsters in iowa and new hampshire as well that if donald trump is convicted of a crime they will not vote for him for president and those are republicans showing up in a republican primacy setting. there is a certain for a trump

campaign because you can't hues that many voters. the question is fitness. do you believe this person is fit to be president? a massive number think skwiden isn't consistently fit and if trump is convicted he wouldn't be fit so have you a whole bunch of voters saying i've got two unfit choices and at that point where do ghe, i think some of the republicans would not want to vote for trump but they may not also want to vote for biden so you could see fluctuations in turnout if you get to a situation where people don't think either these guys are qualified or fit to be president of the united states. >> before the general, one quick primary question, nikki haley's team has had a huge fund-raising month january, $16.5 million in new donations making it haley's best month of fund-raising to tate according to her campaign. that's almost as much cash as the three prior months combined. is money going to keep her in this? >> i mean, it may keep her in this, but i don't think it will get her anymore votes. how much money did she spend in

iowa and new hampshire, yet to win a state from donald trump? i don't think she's tracking to win south carolina right now and the kinds of people who are giving her money real believe in what she's saying and often she says objectively true things, it's just what they believe and what they want to happen is really different than what republican primary voters believe and have happen. ultimately i keep saying this, it will be actual republican primary voters who choose the nominee of this party, apgd right now they are sticking with donald trump and his numbers nationally to me look like they are growing among republicans so she can say a lot of things. she can run a lot of ads with all that money but the question is there anyone persuadable actually throat talk to, and that number has dwindled down to a very, very low number. >> conversation so good we didn't even let jamal into this one. or his connection was just messed up. good to see you, scott. >> you may might for that later. >> the white house is now vowing

further action after carrying out major strikes on iran-backed groups in iran and syria and a new problem involving the boeing 737 max. what the company is doing to address this new issue. that's ahead.

gaza. it comes as iran's foreign ministry is lashing out at the united states condemning the u.s. strikes against iran-backed mill senate syria, iraq and yemen that happened over the weekend. defense officials say they hit 84 of 85 intended targets, and they are not done yet. cnn's mat somewhat bertrand is at the pentagon for us this morning. is the white house sort of tipping their hand, 85 targets and have promised more to come? what do we know? >> yeah, sara, national security adviser jake sullivan when asked yesterday whether this was the last of the united states response to the drone attack that killed three service members in jordan last month, and he indicated there he's more to come when this comes to this response. here's what he said. >> we're still assessing the battle damage. our centcom, central command, is looking at the capabilities we reduced and the casualties that

were incurred. the president was cleared when he ordered them and conducted them that that was the beginning of the response, and there will be more steps to come. >> now in terms of what the u.s. actually destroyed in these attacks in syria and iraq on friday night, according to defense officials, they did manage to destroy 84 of the 85 targets that they targeted, including facilities used by iran's islamic revolution quds force, one of the more extreme elements of the military as well as iran's backed militia responsible for the drone attack that killed the u.s. service members. they are confident they did significantly degrade the capabilities of these groups, but big question is how long it will take for those groups to regroup because many have committed to not stopping their attacks on u.s. and coalition forces until the war in gaza is over. sar snarks. >> you've ghooits inmen, the al

quds force that is very, very active, and we've seen what they are capable of. thank you so much for all your reporting. >> sara, just so people can see the range of where this was all taking place. strikes in syria and iraq and strikes inmen over the weekend that we know about. with us now cnn global atears correspondent kim dozier and retired u.s. general james spider marks. we know more strikes could be coming. that's what the house said over the weekend. to what end? what would have accomplish, and what is your view on the idea that this is all about deterrence? >> well, first of all, i think we should talk about what we're going to do and go about the business of doing it. this administration has made it perfectly clear it won't stop these operations until the objective is achieved so there's no time horizon. there will be additional operations that will take place.

the desire is to get these primarily tehran to understand that the proxies have now received some really crushing blows. they are going to have to reconstitute there. will probably be a period where they have to get their act back together, figure out what they are capable of doing if they intend to continue the operations. in parallel when we see secretary blinken in the middle east again we hope that there could be an advanced effort of a cease-fire in gaza. if that's the case, then i would subject you see the proxies backing off that at least in the interim the objective would be met. >> i want to ping on something that spider said. the strikes were in iraq and syria and yemen down here, but the strategic target, it is a were, is iran here to get them to stop backing and influencing these groups. what do you think the view of all of this is from inside iran?

>> well, you've seen that iran's response has been to say that they won't allow themselves to be bullied by the united states, but they haven't promised any sort of retaliation, and that means that at this point washington seems to be threading the needle, not spurring a wider war with an iranian response and instead very carefully going after the proxies in various parts of the region, take their trained people off the battlefield and the weapons that they have managed to smuggle from iran to the various locations to use, but the u.s. is aware that there's a larger ideological fight going on despite for influence where iran and other arab nations see the u.s. as supporting israel in its crackdown inside gaza, so there's sort of the david and goliath fighting back. the u.s. doesn't want to play into that point of view, and that's why i think you've seen this more from their perspective

measured targeted response, but also i've got to point out the white house isn't promising that this is going to make the attacks stop. the only way to do that, as spider was saying, is to have some sort of diplomatic resolution to the conflict in gaza. >> how do you thread a needle and influence action at the same time, spider? >> well, very difficult as kim described. there's a lot of art and science. the key thing is what we need to understand is what we're trying to achieve is a level of deterrence. that's what everybody is talking bork and that's the objective. how do you achieve deterrence? deterrence by definition is behavior that's acceptable within bounds, and the way you achieve deterrence is through the application of a whole of government type of strategy, a campaign, and in many cases that you person your enemy, and as a result of that input, you get an output that you can describe as deterrence.

in other words, certain behaviors will be punished. certain behaviors will be okay. that's how you achieve death rerngs but you don't achieve it through very precise strikes that don't have overarching objective. you have to do this over the course of time to achieve those objectives. >> kimberly doze yes, you noted that secretary of state antony blinken is in the region arriving in saudi arabia. what does he need to come home with this time? >> well, hopefully hopefully some sort agreement that stops the fighting for weeks at a time and get some hostages out. both sides, hamas and the israeli military, do -- show signs of wear and tear and need for regrouping, but the hope is that after this pause there won't be a resumption in fighting. what the biden administration is haynefully aware of is that it's losing support domestically from large parts of democratic party and also internationally there

is a growing anti-american anti-west sentiment that's being shown in things like there was a procter & gamble factory where a handful of people were held hostage over the weekend in turkey. now, that was resolved peacefully, but it shows what the u.s. intelligence community is worried about, that the more the u.s. backs israel, the more it will become a target for whose who despise the death and destruction that they see going on on the ground no matter what happened on october 7. >> kim doze yes, spider marks, always great to see boast you. thank you. >> kate? >> 3,900-plus pageser than on capitol hill have said that they have been waiting to see. why then are so many republicans vowing to stand against it before they have even had a chance to read t.it's, what's snout what this all means for border security. we'll right back.

what's out? what what is finally here? after months of talk, rumors, a lot of rumors and a lot of negotiations behind closed doors, the senate has unveiled a major $118 billion border security and foreign aid package, and in the less than 24 hours that people in charge of making laws have had the opportunity to read the actual potential law, the reaction has been, i guess you could sum it up as some digging in, some pushing back. very unclear where this is head. house speaker mike johnson says the bill is worse than expected and deemed it dead on arrival in

the house of representatives. donald trump also weighing in. as we know his opinion has very clearly mattered on all republicans essentially calling it a great gift to democrats and a death wish for the republican party. cnn's manu raju picks up from there. manu, we just heard from another key voice in this in the senate. one of the republicans -- a member of republican leader john cornyn. what is he telling, saying? >> reporter: yeah. he's saying he has, quote, serious concerns about this proposal and still has many questions. that's an ominous sign and another indication that this is trending in the wrong direction for members who are trying to get this hard fought border deal out of the senate and seeing that they may not be able to get the vote out of senate. a key test vote is scheduled for wednesday. they need 6 a votes in the united states senate. it's uncertain whether they can get there because of opposition from a number of republicans, donald trump calling on

republicans to kill it as well as democratic concerns as well. a handful of democrats at least are indicating they will vote against it so getting this through the chamber remains to be seen. this is a massive proposal, not only dealing with new changes to asylum laws and new changes to giving the department of homeland security new authority to essentially turn away migrants at the southern border in between ports of entry when cross reach a certain threshold but also attached to aid to ukraine and israel and aid to taiwan, $118 billion is the price tag as they try to push this measure through in a critical moment here, but the divisions within the gop ranks are the most pronouced. the speaker of the house hansd kated for some time that he would got along with this, even before this deal was released. he put out a tweet calling this essentially dead on arrival and said that this is worse than expected, but not everyone in the gop agrees with that. up of them is a member of his own conference, congressman dan crenshaw. unfortunately, there's a lot of

emotion about this border deal and no analysis of the facts by people who should know better. many people who are very fast read verse tweeted completely false statements about the legislation, so you're seeing how a lot of members are frustrated that people within the high upper everyone lofns gop leadership are set to kill this bill without giving it a time to look into it further with the view that a lot of republicans that i spoke to last week said there was no bill text and many said they would got in along with this n.large part both sides donald trump wants this dead so he can campaign on the issue of border chaos, even as same republicans say this bill doesn't go far enough in dealing with the problems at the border. >> if nothing else, it has been confirmed in the less than 2 hours since, it's the impact and influence of donald trump on so many republicans on how they are approaching this bill. manu, always, he'll bring us the updates as he gets them.

that's where it stands on capitol hill. >> and it's very clear what's happening. a lot of people will look at that and say this seems to be politics of the people. there's a real problem on the border. >> i still argue it could be a win-wings, and i know -- >> you're so optimistic. >> i'm so polliana which you know is not true. they could all win. it doesn't have to be a zero sum game. >> we have to wait to see what happens. >> we don't control it. >> cnn's rosa flores has been joining us. she's been at eagle pass for days, eagle pass, texas, the center of where the migrant crisis is right now. we saw over the weekend the texas governor inviting republican governors all standing there at the u.s. mexico border. what's happening now pause there is a battle between the state and federal government going on throughout all of this. snow know, that standoff continues. the state of texas still

continues to take over a certain area of eagle pass and illegal immigration continues. i want to show you around because this is takeover zone taken over by texas. that's why you see the rays ore wire lining here in the rio grande. our photojournalist just took video of an encounter between texas officials and a migrant that was in thery. you can see that a mother and her child, they were inside the rio grande, and a boat then comes along and state troopers, texas state troopers pull the child out of water and pull the mother out of the water and on to a boat and then they go on. i talked to texas dps about it. they say in this case because it's a child and a woman that they would be turned over to u.s. border patrol which is the reason why we're even talking about this and why we're here in this takeover zone because even

though the state of texas have taken over this-year and if you're in new york and you have central park, any other area of the country, whatever green space that you have, there is, you know, a space where the community usually goes and hangs out. well, that is this space for eagle pass residents. they hang out in this park that was taken over by the state of texas. one day razor wire went up, sara, and then soldiers with long guns appeared and they put up gates, and so that's this takeover zone, but border patrol is in the allowed in this area, so any migrants that are turning themselves into immigration authorities here actually turn themselves in to state authorities, and in this case a migrant woman and a child is turned over to border patrol right outside the gates. sara, back to you. >> this battle is a fascinating one. you can see the real human toll here. we are looking at those pictures that your photographer took, and they are dramatic.

thank god that that mother and child are okay. you also see a gentleman standing on this little area kind of looking out at what's happening. the pictures have been incredible, and the fight continues. rosa flores, you've been there throughout all of it, and i'm sure you'll stay. we'll check back with you when there's more information coming from that area. new safety concerns over the boeing 737 max this morning. stay with us.

this ad? typical. politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter. porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos

to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message. two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message. this morning, boeing has found a new problem with its 737 max planes that has to be

reworked and could delay delivery of about 50 planes. boeing has been inspecting the 737 max-9 line after the incident aboard an alaska airlines flight when a door plug blew out leaving a gaping hole mid-flight. with suscnn's transportation correspondent pete muntean with this latest, new, additional problem, here's the new development. the contractor that builds the 137 max fuselage for boeing is owning this problem. spirit aerosystems confirms it's the major supplies that misdrilled holes on flaens are still on the production line at boeing's plant in washington and that it notified boeing of the problems. nonetheless, another plaque eye for quality control as boeing tries to clean up its reputation after last month's max-9 door plug blowout. here's the memo from the head of the commercial airlines stan diehl saying y while this potential condition is not an

immediate flight safety issue and all 737s can continue operating safely, we currently believe we'll have to perform a redark work on 50 you be delivered airplanes. diehl says the company must get it right so boeing is slowing down 737 production. that could mean relayed deliveries of new planes. not a good look as airlines like united have already said they are not thrilled about being on boeing's order books. >> not a good look, but the important thing is to get it right and safe. pete muntean, thanks. kate in. >> hurricane force winds and dangerous rains, we're in the middle of the atmospheric river that right now is slamming california. we'll be right back.
