2:09 am
by those tornadoes, which left devastation normally associated with the southern united states. the ferocity of the storm took many by surprise trapping families in basement apartments and motorists on road ways that quickly turn to rivers more than 20 centimeters of rain fell overnight in some areas. that's as much as typically falls in the entire month of september. when i say that this man we spoke to in new jersey, had stopped in his truck to take a video with water and the street suddenly began to rise the river. all the sudden i looked down the road and literally it was like a river coming towards me. and me and my daughter, my 12 year with me and we just panic. i put in a 4 wheel drive and just backed out real quick before it summers my truck, northeastern governors and president biden say the trail of destruction left by ida is yet more evidence of climate changes impact on weather systems across the united states. and bite and says the country needs to prepare for more to come. we need to

2:11 am
but president invited making very clear as well that these are all shrill term solutions that what is needed is an ongoing battle against climate change. he describes the, the consequences of the storm as the climate change crisis. now happening. he is talking about the various levels. one is to compete against the ongoing climate change to reduce the global temperature pointing out the science that as the global temperature rises. so to does the moisture content in the air, but he's also talking about his infrastructure bills to bills that are in congress at the moment, putting trillions of dollars into refurbishing the u. s. as infrastructure things like storm drain, things like anti flooding devices. all of these factors coming together, but this is a long way down the road. these bows are still to go through congress at the long way. it would seem before they reach president biden for signature. but in the
2:12 am
