people. i'm from that part of the illinois, i've been talking to family and friends. they texted me pictures. a friend of mine, a deputy, told me he has not seen anything like this. he said homes have been obliterated. tree down, power is out, traffic snarled. i spoke to a woman who was a friend of my niece. she told me her home in washington was not damaged or touched. she walked two streets over and the homes have been basically levelled. lots of destruction. this is the time of year we don't normally see tornados in this part of the country. we see them in the spring. this is unusual. this morning it was warm, it had been cold last week, and warmed up over the weekend. very unusual for this time of year. >> you mentioned the deputy you talked with. do we have an idea with how

field now. that's where ashar quraishi is standing by now. how did fans deal with the emergency weather? >> well, pretty good. i mean it's - about half hour after kick-off is when officials, referees decided it was getting too dangerous with wind gusts and lightening and players to be on the field and spectators to remain in the stands. players moved off the field, spectators moved to the lower concourses. some fans, rather, decided to leave because of the torrential down pours and the wind and temperatures dropped. we ran into a couple of folks. they described what the situation looked like as they tried to move to the exits and get to the lower concourse levels. we don't have that sound, but
6:07 pm
they described some of the chaos, taking 45 minutes for some of those in the upper concourse levels to get to the lower areas where it was deemed to be safe. they said there was a lot of pushing and - we have the sound, you can listen now. hang on a second, here you go. >> they told everyone to leave. we couldn't go anywhere. there was no movement down the exits. we were stuck out there in the weather. and then we got down, there was nowhere to go. people were peeing everywhere, there was nowhere to go. we were wall to wall people. it took us this long to get to the point. we wanted to get out and we couldn't. it was scary. people had young kids, with nowhere to go, with their parents. >> it was ridiculous. we were up in the 400 section. it took literally 45 minutes to get out.

6:09 pm
of that, but not nearly devastation that we have been seeing and hearing from central illinois and in cole city. >> thank you ashar quraishi in chicago. >> now we'll check in with rebecca. we are watching the storm system. stormy ports began in illinois, and we saw that track across into indiana, where we had a number of hail reports and flooding reports, and tornado reports have been popping up as well. we have been watching this storm, this loop. it's turning into a counterclockwise rotation. now, if you think of low pressure like a low point, like a low cup, and if you were to pour water in it from a higher point. that water is going to move very fast from the high point to the low point. it's very much like low pressure and high pressure and wind. think of wind as the water.
6:10 pm
it will move fast from higher to lower pressure, which is sucking in the wind, making the whipped gust superfast. what we see here also is the indication of a jet stream, which is a very, very fast, rapid wind, high in the atmosphere. that helps to pull up lift. now we have the winds not only moving in the horizontal direction, but the vertical different directions, which is causing the spin and the tornados to develop. here at 1 o'clock, in illinois, you could see the line of thunder storms highlighted in red, the primary band spawning the first two confirmed tornado reports in illinois. as it tracked, you could see into the afternoon, it started to fall apart. then it continues to the east. we have symptom strong storms behind it. well wind gusts, as the storms track east, are up to as fast as 36 miles per hour. a 55 miles per hour gusts in the
6:11 pm
last hour for indianapolis. the winds are causing advisories, but we have severe thunderstorm warnings with tornado warnings in place for the storm stretching from michigan to kentucky. kentucky is where we see the dangerous levels, and it's moving to pennsylvania. expect the weather to translate away from tornados and move to powerful wind gusts causing damage. from this storm, this low pressure causing all the spin and sucking the air in fast. it will be moving to canada. but the winds around the great lakes will impact from indiana, kentucky, ohio, and tracking southern new england. we'll keep track of the storm and show you wind gusts and

6:30 pm
broken bones, cuts. 13 were treated and released this afternoon. the red cross is setting up four shelters for displaced residents. i have been talking all afternoon. i have been talking all aftermoon with friends and family reporting damage. homes turned to rubble. trees down. power out. snarled traffic. people are told to stay away from the areas. there's a lot of people going in and gauking. they were will underway to clear up the debris. looking at the ex-tensive taj, it will probably be several weeks before all of that debris is cleared. this is a part of the state, a part of the country that is no stranger to tornados, they come through frequently in the spring, here and there. in fact, about 10 years ago a
6:31 pm
serious tornado levelled the sound of south peckin, and it was able to bounce back. it will take time to clean up in washington. >> talk about the rescue efforts, now that we have reached night time. any idea of what crews are doing, if they are still searching for victims and the debris. >> we are not down yet, but from what i understand earlier there were reports that people were trapped in their homes, and i know that the search for people like that is underway. a lot of work is done by local sheriff department. volunteers stepped in to help. it's probably going to be a long night, and maybe long days ahead for the town of washington illinois. >> i want to go back to the injuries, you've been on the phone to a hospital. did you get a sense of how severe the injuries were on the people that were hurt.
6:32 pm
>> well, as i mentioned, the more serious patients were people with head injuries and broken bones and cuts. there has been abrasions - that sort of things. the other - there were patients treated for minor injuries and released. another 24 still there. those were - the six patients had more serious injuries. they are looking at other patients with minor, you know, bumps, scrapes, that kind of thing. >> thank you for your time tonight. we have more - we want to go to paddy thompson, a spokesperson with the illinois department of the emergency management and joins us on the phone from the state capitol of springfield. thank you for being with us. if you can update us on the scale of damage and how many injuries you are seeing. >> well, you know, the damage is still being assessed at this
6:33 pm
time. so we don't have any kind of numbers yet on the number of homes or businesses that may have been impacted by this. we have seen reports through the media and on social media of severe damage in the washington area, which is up near the area damaged. and there are reports of damage from other parts of the state. and some of these areas have included people trapped in - in buildings. i know there has been search and rescue operations ongoing also. >> do we have an update on the number of injuries and fatalities. >> i haven't received any reports on injuries at the time. we have had reported to us three fatalities in the country of washington, illinois, and one in
6:34 pm
the city of washington. so all in the area. are you expecting the number to grow? >> i don't know at this time. >> do you know anything about the three killed, the circumstances around it. >> no, i don't. there's so much going on in the areas. i don't have the information. >> are rescuers out there going through debris, trying to find survivors, or is that work largely done? >> i am located in the state emergency center at springfield, so i'm not on the ground. i don't have current information to know if that is ongoing at this time. >> my apologies, i thought you guys were coordinating a lot of relief effort. >> no, the first responders are the local responders. what we are doing is coordinating state response to support the local responders.
6:35 pm
>> what has the state's response been so far? >> well, we sent some of our staff to washington to help coordinate with them on any needs that they have. we also sent some communication equipment because their emergency communications were severely disrupted by the storms. and that will enable emergency responders to be able to speak to each other during the response and recovery. we also are in constant contact with our partners at the local level, to check on what they need for any state assistance. >> have you guys heard back from them - what is the need for those areas tonight. ? >> i know there has been need for generators. red cross is here with us in the
6:36 pm
emergency center. i know they've been looking at opening shelters for people displaced by the storm. >> patty stringer with the department of memory si management in illinois. she gave us new information. three fatalities confirmed in washington county. that's slightly more than we reported earlier. three killed by the massive storm system going through central illinois. now to rebecca with more on the system. it's moving to the north-east. it looks like kentucky as well. >> the large supercell thunder storms - we have been looking at the pictures of them, that same storm, the pictures are coming from - it is in place. it is still moving, bringing the dark ominous clouds across places like kentucky. we are getting the storms stretching to indiana and ohio. these are the places we have got reports of tornado, golf-ball
6:37 pm
size hails around kentucky. jackson kentucky is bracing for winds moving into your area. in the panbands of rain where y see the bright red. we are getting rain from 1-2 inches coming in rapidly, causing flash flooding. there are a lot of worries with the storms as they move through parts of the central mid-atlantic, tracking to the mid north-east. as we look at one of the sform prediction center graphs, over time that blue line is showing how wind reports have been the number one storm report or damage report coming in today. our other reports with the area in red - that is the tornado reports, and that supercedes the amount of hail we have had. this is an impressive storm. for november, what is unique is the fact that we are getting intense potential for very strong tornados, it's not
6:38 pm
unusual to have them in november, but a high risk of damaging tornados, in november, that is unique. storm damage reports coming in - the highest are the wind reports. they have been strong winds up to 65 to 70 miles per hour. just a gust - we are not addressing the tornados. thunderstorm probability, it stays in place in the next 24 hours in the same areas hit hard. hitting michigan, virginia and the potential for storms getting to parts of northern alabama. mostly we expect the severe weather to stay further into the northern area. this particular radar is showing an area of low pressure developing over the great lakes. this is creating the powerful winds that we expect to come in overnight through the early morning hours to the north-east. yes, we are watching a potent storm system. tornados are one part of it. certainly we'll be on alert for
6:39 pm
the tornados for the next two to three hours through kentucky, ohio, and michigan. >> it's rare to see tornados this late in the season. >> we can get them in november, because of the cold air around the poles, trying to push down to the hot air around the equator. that, in itself will create spin and problems in weather. what we are seeing is a high risk of - for the powerful damning tornados, and that is added in. on top of the low pressure system developed, we have the temperature to extreme difference, and we have jett stream on top of all of it, and that gives it extra oomph and power. >> three killed in washington, illinois and central illinois after the massive storms. we'll follow that story. we have other news to talk about. the polls closed in chile where
6:40 pm
voters are electing a new president. former president michelle bachelet led, but she may full short of an outright victory. daniel schweimler reports from the capital santiago on this historic election. >> we are at the national statium in santiago, one of the largest polling stations. 13 million chillans are voting for politicians, senators and deputyies and new president. there's nine candidates. the former president michelle bachelet is ahead in opinion polls, but back from the right wing candidate is evelyn matthei. and franco parisi the ipp dependent. the big question is if the winning candidate receives 50%, avoiding a run-off. most candidates seek fundamental change. the chilean economy is thriving. more and more sectors of chilean
6:41 pm
societies demand that the votes transform into action. >> no president yet in chile. >> the pakistan council announced it would try to put pervez musharraf on trial for high treason, he would be the first to be tried in high treason in pakistan. it was for actions during his dictatorship from 1979 to 2008. he's accused of ordering the assassination of a former pakistan president. >> it is a big week in nfl. mark morgan has that and more in sport. wait until you see the challenges and risk these people are paying hundreds to take on.
