here's what's happening. gadhafi's son speaks out from his hiding place, revealing new information about cease-fire talks. could his father be ready to surrender? that exclusive report is just seconds away. tropical storm lee is picking up speed and putting parts of the gulf coast under water. cnn reporters are positioned in towns right in the storm's path. we'll take you there live. then we'll head to an area still reeling from hurricane irene. president obama pays a visit to new jersey, a live report is just ahead. but first, to libya, exclusive developments right here on cnn. moammar gadhafi and his influential sons appear to be running out of options, that's according to cnn's senior international correspondent nic robertson. that's nic with moammar gadhafi's son earlier this year in tripoli. that was before the capital city fell to rebel forces. nic has spoke within the younger
1:02 pm
gadhafi in the past few hours, mostly about the dwindling chances for a cease-fire. and take a look at this map, south of tripoli is bani walid. the support there may not exist anymore. a short time ago i talked to nic by phone in london. i asked him if gadhafi's son had any idea about the wheres about of his father? >> reporter: i asked him specifically where his father was, where his brother, saif, the heir apparent to moammar gadhafi, where they were. he told me he hadn't seen them in two months. i asked him where he was. he said he was outside of bani walid. he said he hadn't been able to watch television very much, relatively safe but still in a dangerous situation. he told me then that he's been
1:03 pm
negotiating with national transitional council, rebel military commanders. they've also confirmed this. he's been negotiating to try and get a cease-fire for the town of bani walid on thursday when his brother, saif, gave what he described as an aggressive speech on television, urging his supporters to keep fighting, sadi gadhafi told me at that point the national transition council, the rebels essentially said the cease-fire talks are off. if your brother is going to talk like that. right now, according to sadi, he believes there's no point in negotiations that the national transitional council is amessing troops to go into bani walid. he clearly his differences with his father and his brother, saif a
1:04 pm
al islam. the divisions are significant because until now, gadhafi's family have been the power brokers, the main people that have run the country. they've always stuck together and now that cohesion is falling apart. alena? >> nic, as you well know, the rebels have set a saturday deadline for gadhafi to surrender, now this development. how do you see things playing out in libya over the next few day? >> they've even talked about extending that cease-fire. there has been some discussion about it certainly from political leaders, the one senior military commander on the rebel side told me he wasn't comfortable with that extension that the political leaders had given, the emtensixtension of a week, until this weekend. it seems the military commanders have the initiative right now and it does seem they will go into bani walid and see a scene slightly reminiscent of tripoli where the rebels will quickly take control over perhaps small,
1:05 pm
fierce skirmishes. those loyal to gadhafi will run away. this seems set to be a protracted campaign, the national transition council said their key aim is to catch moammar gadhafi. it's beginning to look like this may take some time, it's beginning to look like an iraq-type scenario where the iraqi and u.s. forces were tracing saddam hussein for a very long time. it hasn't gone that far yet. but that may lie ahead, a long chase for moammar gadhafi. >> a long brewing protest movement in israel reached a tipping point last night. just look at what may be the country's biggest ever public display of anger at the government. that's an estimated 400,000 people, according to media reports, rallying last night in tel aviv, their protesting against israel's high cost cost

1:07 pm
away. you'll hear the voice of that man calmly narrating what he saw. watch. >> the remains of an airplane crash over on the road, probably a terrorist bomb on board, blew up. don't know anything more than that. that's what i heard on the scanner. i just saw the smoke come up and the explosion shook the house clear over here. and we are, what, 15 mile from lambertsville. and it shook the heck out of the house. >> incredible and eerie to watch. the man you heard from is now deceased. the family wishes to remain anonymo anonymous. this is believed to be the first known video that shows the smoke cloud from the flight 93 crash. we here at cnn will bring you special 9/11 coverage beginning
1:08 pm
next sunday morning at 8:30 a.m. eastern time. anderson cooper and candy crowley will help us remember the tragic events of september 11th, 2001, and honor the lives that were lost in 9/11 ten years later. along the central gulf coast of the united states, flooding rains as tropical storm lee makes a move toward the tennessee valley and the northeast. right now, lee is over southern louisiana, where ten parishes have issued emergency declarations. and the storm is starting to pick up speed, its impact felt over a wide area. torrential rains have been falling in mississippi, alabama, and the florida panhandle. tonight, atlanta right here in georgia will be under a flash flood watch. and we begin with ed lavandera. he is in jean lafitte, louisiana. how bad is it where you are right now? >> you know, the wind has not been an issue at all today. and the rain has been -- when it does fall, it comes in bands. they've been much more sporadic
1:09 pm
today. we had a significant rainfall this morning. since then it's been a little bit like this. but the problem here in this town, this is just south of new orleans, if you look over here, all of this is water and this is say common scene around as you drive through the main road coming into town. and the reason all this is happening if you look in the distance where that orange barrier is over there, that is the intercoastal highway, the waterway, that takes water from the gulf of mexico and winds its way back in towards new orleans. all of this is being caused because the winds are pushing towards the north. that is pushing water through the waterway up through the canals and back and it's spilling out into these neighborhoods in jean lafitte, louisiana, south of new orleans. what's happening, seems typical like this, water is threatening to go inside of homes. mostly what we've seen and we've driven up and down, you'll see areas where you can see the water creeping up to the door steps of these homes. there is concern in all of this
1:10 pm
fluctuates dramatically with high tide and low tide. crews around here in jean lafitte have been going and setting up makeshift levees and sandbags and other ways to control the water and salvage what they can. for the most part, everyone holding up very well, doing what they need to. they hope as soon as the winds shift towards the south, that will happen as tropical storm lee moves further north, that it is a matter of time before this starts disappearing. >> ed lavandera, thanks very much. we want to go to the alabama gulf coast, another area feeling the impact of tropical storm lee. meteorologist reynolds wolf joins us by phone now from golf shores. reynolds, the last hour when we spoke, it was a bit windy where you were but there was certainly no rain. has the situation changed, has it gotten worse? what are you seeing where you are right now? >> i would say it has changed considerably. we had one band that brought quite a bit of rain. as i'm speaking now, it's been
1:11 pm
the first significant rainfall we've seen in this location. they have anywhere from 7 to 8 inches of rainfall. that very thing, the rainfall had a lot of people who are here on vacation taking shelter inside their condominiums and hotels. today with the brief bits of sunshine, lots of people were flocking to the water, they had the flags up telling people to stay out. it's this tennis match back and forth. lifeguards and, of course, law enforcement coming in and telling them to get up out of the water. the situation now, as i mentioned, there's rain coming through. there's potential for more rain coming tomorrow afternoon. it remains a real threat for people living on gulf shores. another threat is farther inland, certainly low-lying areas, pore drainage. it can pile up quickly. that's when you get the flooding and a danger to many of the
1:12 pm
people who call this area home. alina? >> reynolds wolf, for us along the alabama gulf coast. jacqui jeras, what is the latest on the storm. >> it was stalled, moving at 3 miles an hour at most yesterday. today we're up to 8. that's good news. the faster this thing moves, the less the rainfall totals will be. we're still going to see significant onshore flow here across louisiana into mississippi, alabama, florida, even pushing into georgia here and really mississippi is probably getting hit the hardest today with these clusters of thunderstorms and bands as they move through with heavy downpours and rainfall totals as much as 10 to 11 inches already. this is a 45 mile-per-hour maximum sustained storm. the storm system will move slow here over the next 24 hours.
1:13 pm
it will be gradually picking up forward speed and heading on up towards the tennessee valley. it will become what we call extra tropical. you call it a rainmaker and that's what it's going to be here, the rainfall totals in addition to what we already have are forecast generally to be on the range of 4 to 8 inches across the deep south. a few places will get hit harder. jackson could see 6 to 12, atlanta, 3 to 5, knoxville 4 to 7 and we have a cold front which is coming in along with that and that's going to be bringing in about 1 to 3 inches across the northeast today. we are expecting an additional flood threat here across parts of upstate new york, even into vermont where severe thunderstorm watches are in effect. those people reeling from irene. we have a big soaker in the southeast. this will be a long impact storm with the cold front moving on through. it will be an ugly mess for millions trying to travel tomorrow. >> that's what i wanted to ask you about. what are we looking at in terms of flight delays.
1:14 pm
>> like you. >> like me. trying to get home tomorrow from their holiday. >> it's not looking good. we do think there will be rain up and down the eastern seaboard, threat of severe thunderstorms in the southeast. major metropolitan areas, the world's busiest airport in atlanta will likely have delays. up to d.c., new york, boston, everybody in the east going to get in on that. >> thanks a lot, jacqui jeras. >> sorry. president obama heads to an area still trying to recover from hurricane irene. and mr. obama's message to overwhelmed residents is next. this may be the biggest public anti-government protest in israel's history. the issues, the anger, the demands. we'll have all the details, next. ♪

1:32 pm
they're protesting against's israel's high cost of living, high taxes and high unemployment. organizers call the turnout the march of the million. prime minister benjamin netanyahu has promised to form a government pan toll seel to see solutions. the former imf chief, dominique strauss-kahn is back in france. 'riffed this morning after taking an overnight flight from new york's jfk airport, the same airport by the way where strauss-kahn was arrested back on may 14th. his return comes less than two weeks after a judge dismissed charges in the case we was accused of trying to rape a hotel maid. we want to bring in our jim bitterman from paris. i think it's safe to say it was a mob scene out there today. >> reporter: absolutely, alina. strauss-kahn came in an hour and a half early, perhaps thinking he could avoid the press mob but they were there anyway. as you can see, a big crowd gathered there around the
1:33 pm
airport and as well some well wishers. we talked to one woman who got up at 5:30 this morning to be out there to support strauss-kahn. he received a brief round of applause for some of his supporters. he went straight to his apartment, hasn't said a word all day long. at his apartment, one of his neighbors is a guy named jack lang, a former cultural minister of france. he believes strauss-kahn still has a role to play in politics. >> a man like him, his fabulous qualities, his international competence, his knowledge of the economy, of the question of society, could be -- should be very useful for us, not only in france but also in europe. he has to decide. i have -- >> jack lang doesn't represent most french.
1:34 pm
according to public opinion polls here, 80% of the french don't want to see strauss-kahn run for the presidency. alina? >> jim win understand you have some information about strauss-kahn possibly speaking out in the next 2 hours or so? >> reporter: in fact he said before he left the united states he said that he wanted to speak out about the subject when he returned to france. he's now returned. his spokesman said to journalists today that she didn't think he would say anything today, perhaps by tomorrow he might be ready to say something. it's also sort of being made clear he's not going to talk about the details of the affair in the united states. there is still a civil suit pending in the united states. one of the things i should say, too, alina, there's still legal action pending here. there's a young lady, journalist, who claims that strauss-kahn attempted to rape her eight years ago and there's a prosecutor looking into that.
1:35 pm
he no doubt will want to question strauss-kahn to get his side of the story before he decides whether or not charges will be filed against strauss-kahn in that case. >> you talked about the well wishers who came out. one woman waking up at 5:30 in the morning to greet him when he arrived with his wife. who's to say he couldn't make a political comeback? i mean, are there people who believe there's a chance that he still could run for president? >> reporter: well, i think right now, given what we know, i don't think he could run for president in 2012, which is the next election here. just because there's so many negatives and the leader of the socialist party, his party, said the other day, she agreed with most of the women in france and by the way, most of the women are opposed to what they are hearing about strauss-kahn, that she agrees with their opinion about strauss-kahn. so basically, distancing herself and the socialist party from
1:36 pm
him. so if did he try to make a run this time around, it would have to be almost surely as an independent. he might try to do that. i doubt it. i think rather he'd probably try to play an influential role in the political campaign, an adviser or counselor. memories are very short in politics. people revive their careers in amazingly short time. anything could happen. >> it's a story that's captivated france and the united states. jim bitterman, thank you for joining us from paris. it seems every day we hear about how we are inching toward a double dip recession. so next, in our financial fix, how to recession-proof your family's budget. easy tips you won't want to miss. hey ! chocolate, vanilla or strawberry ? chocolate ! chocolate it is !

equity line while you have a job. later you're not going to qualify. >> that means keep credit cards open, right? >> but don't spend -- >> don't use them. >> exactly. >> my mom used to tell me that. still does. >> right. >> the next thing on your list here, get benefits independent from your company. what are we talking about, life insurance? >> most of us are extremely reline the on our company for health, disability and life insurance. i absolutely encourage people, go get maybe not health but disability and life insurance separate from your company. if you are let go you'll have it in place and you would be shocked how often we find people could buy more inexpensive term life insurance outside their company. >> how do you do that if you're trying to keep a tight budget. >> term insurance is so inexpensive. in times like this, a premature death of a bread winner, that's worse than anything. it's still really, really important.

tiger woods may be struggling with his golf game but get this, he's still the sports number one attraction and this week he helped raise $500,000 for a cause very close to his heart. it's a charity founded by his long-time friend and golfer, notah begay iii. they fig they sponsor a golf tournament each year to raise money. he played in the second annual notah begay golf challenge two years ago and this week he returned. >> 2009 was the last time you played. how meaningful will this time around be for you? >> it's extremely gratifying to
1:46 pm
be a part of notah's event. what notah's trying to do for the native american community, what he's trying to do for all the kids with type ii diabetes, as he'll explain, it's totally preventative. that's one of the things we don't realize is obesity and type ii diabetes can all be preventative. what he's trying to do for a lot of young kids that don't understand, they don't have the knowledge for what life is and what he's doing is, as i sid, there's no one out there doing this. and being a friend, knowing him since we were kids, to see what's doing, i'm so proud. >> notah, why are you taking the lead in this? what was the inspiration for you? >> well, just visiting a lot of the native american communities in my philanthropy and community outreach week over the last few years demonstrated to me there was a lack of programming and a
1:47 pm
