2:06 pm
displacement scheme of the policy is coming over to the egyptian side. that is a part of the student and also an error of trauma that whenever punish stevens left the areas they wouldn't have are able to come back. and that's the big fear in egypt that it's for sure. also part of the discussions was blinking, blinking already mentioned several times in the last days that ca, he would be against some permanent displacement of palestinians from the gaza strip towards egypt. but that really remains the biggest fee and kind of what thank you so much for bringing us up to speed. there is always that is journalist kareem outgo harry in cairo for us. storms of last california with a torrential rain that has brought severe flooding and land slides. following trees have killed 3 people in the north of the states. a hundreds of thousands are without power and extreme weather. warnings are in force. reco,
2:07 pm
breaking rain full, has sent mud tearing down hillsides. los angeles, the national weather service says that some of the west as to whether the california has seen nearly a 150 years. residents of the 2nd most populated area in the us of facing road swamped with water. it's the 2nd time within a matter of days to the atmospheric river has brought huge amounts of moisture. northwood from the woman attitudes to the state. officials say so much. rain has full and so quickly. the ground simply can't take any more in the with the swell being so saturated. obviously it gets to a point where you just cannot absorb it anymore. and that's when it starts to uh, to move. and then we have that shift in the, in the soil. some residents have been falls from that homes by the torrents of mazda were, were heard, it was raining,
2:08 pm
but we didn't know there was anything like that. we looked outside and there's a foot and a half and running water outside of the house. and it sort steeping through the doors and so they start, they start in the morning up the doors and i'm like running equipment upstairs because we have studios downstairs and like we're trying to save things. the areas homeless community has been hit hard by the storm with many living in continents, and particularly flood prone areas. rescue work has that helps bring some to safety . while the heaviest rain has no pulse authorities urging people to remain cautious in the l. a area saying there was still a risk of yet more flooding unlined slides to come. let's talk to jason at camp a. don't hear the nbc news radio bureau chief in los angeles. jason, glad you controlling us. can you tell us what the situation looks like? where you are and uh right now it's not fantastic. i can tell
