10:11 pm
which as you say, have been downgraded from hurricane strength in 24 hours to currently the tropical storm level. it's the water that is the big concern. that storm is expected to continue to slow down as it goes over rhode island, up through massachusetts, and possibly through maine before it goes back out into the atlantic ocean. but because of that slower pace, that means that there's actually more water pouring down and that's what's happened in new jersey and new york. and so the fear is continued flooding. we've had very severe flooding in new jersey as we drove up over night. we watch cars scatter off of the road and there were big pedals within the new jersey turnpike. and the concern here is that that will happen all the way up the coast is often happens with these tropical storms. we also have because of those relatively high winds trees snapping off in rhode island, we've seen video of boats rolling up on shore. so there is already significant
10:12 pm
damage being done. there are some power outages due to trees falling on power lines . and because of that, over 100000 people have already lost power and it could be hundreds of thousands more before this is over. so this is still a powerful storm so far, much of the coast, his averted damage. but right now it is battering, rhode island and it is there and north of there that the fear is severe damage could occur. thank you very much. from long island, john had been reporting to us watching alger there, a life from london most. and i don't program making waves in the black sea, how a series of military incidents increasing the tension between nato and russia. we took a live shot and by land on minds we hear from victims in columbia, and the number of casualties is on the rise. ah
