36-year-old seth ator. xfinity. the future of awesome. his vehicle switch was behind reports of a second shooter. >> there are no definitive answers as to motive or reasons at this point, but we are fairly certain that this subject did act alone. >> reporter: in odessa, i'm riley carlson. >> well, as is often the case after a mass shooting, democrats our special coverage are renewing their calls for tougher gun laws in america. continues. >> that's right. hurricane dorian hitting the bahamas hard, heading now toward among them, the u.s. senator and the united states. welcome back to viewers here in presidential candidate elizabeth warren in a tweet. the u.s. and around the world. warren saying that she urged the i'm george howell. >> and i'm rosemary church. senate majority leader to allow we are keeping a close eye on a vote on gun safety legislation now. adding, every day you wait, more this very powerful storm. >> the bahamas right now they tragedies happen. keep getting blasted, keep in the meantime, the u.s. president says that he is getting hit by the strongest working with congress to end gun violence. >> looking at a lot of different hurricane to ever hit the things. we're looking at a lot of island. dorian a devastating category 5 different bills, ideas, concepts. storm. winds of 175 miles or or 300 it's been going on for a long kilometers an hour. it's moving at a snail's pace, while. background checks. i will say that for the most crawling there and expected to part, sadly, if you look at the stay over the bahamas for the next 24 hours. last four or five, going back >> the storm has destroyed homes even five or since or seven

and ripped the roofs off buildings in the abaco islands. years, for most part as strong flooding is also a major concern as you make your background checks, they would not have stopped any of it. with the storm surge up to 23 so it's a big problem. feet or 7 meters. it's a mental problem. it's a big problem. the northwest bahamas could see as much as eight months' worth of rain in just a few days. >> and then take a look at this. >> thnatasha lindstaedt is a you get a sense of how big and vast this thing is from the professor of government at the international space station. it's the strongest storm university of birmingham. anywhere on the planet right now she joins us now. >> thank you for have me. and noaa released pictures of >> so yet another mass shooting in this country, and apparently dorian's eye wall. the white house is working on wow. right in the middle there. you get to see the stadium some kind of solution to gun violence, but we just heard effect, that's a phenomenon that you see when you're in the middle of the storm. president trump say background checks for the most part would right there you see the sun. not have stopped this or past wow. let's bring in our meteorologist shootings, so what would a white ivan cabrera to tell us more about that and where the storm house plan look like and how can is going. >> most of us will never be in we have any confidence that anything's going to be done? the eye of a storm like that, flight level like that. >> well, we don't know what a just incredible scenes. right now in grand bahama white house plan would look like island, you have to imagine, because you can tell from the 180-mile-an-hour winds coming in clip of trump speaking he's from the north and all of a sudden it goes to zero. incredibly vague. he's not listing anything that's

you got the eye. people are going to be out very specific, and he's not also wandering, perhaps looking up at referring to the house bill that the stars. you'll be able to see them. was passed back in february, 180-mile-an-hour winds come back which nancy pelosi is hoping will go to the senate and on the southern side. this is going to be a long finally get passed there, and night. it's going to be a long day tomorrow and the day after that. they're urging mitch mcconnell, we get into florida and the the senate majority leader carolinas. we're going to be talking about there, to take a hard look at dorian until the end of next that and understand that, you know, you have 90% of the week. 175-mile-an-hour winds, the american public that supports latest advisory. background checks, and that's go in a little bit tighter here what the bill would be trying to to be able to see. implement. just incredible. this is not a turn. this is a wobble. stricter background checks for they wobble when they get this strong. people. trump was talking about and that is going to go up and down and up. background checks positively, so we haven't had the steering finally after the two shootings currents actually begun to lift this up to the north, but there in ohio and texas earlier in is freeport, and those are the august, but then he sort of did destructive 175-mile-an-hour winds. and then you get to zero and an about-face after he had a chance to talk with the nra. then again back to 175. so there's deep concerns that gusts over 200. and, again, an incredible he's just going to talk very picture here with the satellite -- this is the radar from miami, vaguely about background checks, but then not really do anything, 120 miles just to the east is a and in the same quote where he's category 5 hurricane. the strongest so far on the saying we're looking at all planet this year, and now the second strongest atlantic hurricane ever.

only one topped it, allen, back these different things, he then finishes the quote off by saying, well, actually, that's in 1980 at 191 miles an hour. not really going to do anything about it. we have more of maybe a mental health issue. hurricane warnings from boca but when we look at studies of raton heading up into cape mass shootings, only 20% of shooters are suffering from mental health issues, so it's not just a mental health issue, canaveral. hurricane watches that extend from cape canaveral to it is a gun issue and one that he doesn't seem to be serious jacksonville. the yellow you see here, about tackling with actual tropical storm watch. why? specific ideas. well, because we think this is >> right. going to get close enough with and this latest shooting in winds in excess of 40 miles an texas came a day before that same state introduced new, more hour, tropical storm-force winds even at disney world. relaxed gun laws. yet the state's gover othe bloo the storm surge is going to go up twice that height on top of tired of the dying, and action them. is needed, but the politicians there you see the potential for south florida and into central say one thing and do another, florida, the coastline anyway don't they? so how many more deadly mass there as our category 5 begins to move further to the north. shootings will it take for it's still not done that. it's still moving due west, right? so that turn is going to be leaders of this country to find the political will to take some critical and then there it goes, form of action? >> well, that's a great tuesday 8:00 p.m. look at this, a 24-hour question, but i think the issue is that there is a very different philosophy about how to solve the problem. so if we look at the state of

texas, they believe that solving difference east of west palm and east of orlando. that turn is going to be crucial the problem is through having in terms of effects for florida. more guns, and the law that they the hurricane doesn't steer itself, but when it gets this passed, the regulations that strong, it kind of does. they passed were to try to make it's going to have that momentum it easier for gun owners to have and want to continue moving west. their guns in a place of worship so this is going to be just an or to have guns at a school. incredibly close call here. again, paralleling the coast in to prevent landlords from a potential landfall by the time prohibiting gun owners from we get into thursday and into storing their guns in their next friday. apartments or storage areas. these are the latest computer model runs. so the texas lawmakers think again, the center, that's where we have the 175, but the that the solution is we just hurricane. need more guns and more guns are force winds extend out 50 miles and the tropical storm-force going to prevent these mass shootings from occurring. winds extend out 150 miles. so keep that in mind. but simulations have shown that the center doesn't have to go on even if you have a gun on you in top of florida to get some of these mass shooting situations, there is not really significant effects. i'll leave with you this because this is our brand-new issue of much that you would be able to do to prevent that. the computer model, the we looked at the state of european, that you're familiar florida after the parkland hit with. it still continues to track this storm just to the east, but notice so close those outer that happened there at the bands there that could contain students where it was an outpouring of people being not just tropical storm winds, incredibly upset about what but hurricane wind potential as happened there. well. they decided to pass a red flag law. then, of course, you get the storm surge. these laws have 70% support when that water has nowhere to go but

florida. so that's going to be an issue it's initiated by the police and there as well. crucial day for tomorrow. 77% support when it's initiated i know we say that every day by a family member. with the storm, but that turn to the north has to happen soon or and what this means in the case we're going to be in a lot of florida, the police can work bigger trouble. with the courts to seize the guys? >> all right. ivan, thank you. >> thank you, appreciate it. weapon of anyone that is at risk well, hurricane dorian made to themselves or to anyone else. a second landfall on grand and it can be temporary or until bahama island, as we heard from they believe that that person is ivan. that was just a few hours ago, well enough to return the firearm to them. in fact. >> that's right. they've already had 2,500 risk cnn's patrick oppmann is there protection orders and they in resort city of freeport. believe that this is a way to here's his report. prevent these types of killings from happening. >> the weather here in freeport is gradually deteriorating as >> it will clearly become an election issue for 2020. we will see what pans out. hurricane dorian moves off the the public will have an nearby island of abaco and heads opportunity to place their vote on this. this direction to the island natasha lindstaedt, thank you so much for joining us. where we are, grand bahama. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. and we are sensing winds picking >> and we continue covering the breaking news this day, this up, more rain coming, and that big, massive storm that is is just going to get worse and headed toward the united states worse because this storm, while at a snail's pace, but will pack incredibly powerful, a category a punch as it goes right up 5, the strongest storm ever to along the coastline. we'll get advice from a storm hit the bahamas, it is also chaser about how to stay safe.

we saw photos. and the devastation was amazing. we're talking about 6, 7 meters of water height. the destruction because of the winds. all of the rain coming down. my god, i cannot wait for tomorrow because the people there are going to be desperate for help. >> yes. because what we're learning is welcome back to viewers here that hurricane dorian could be around that area for 24 hours. in the united states and all around the world. this is going to create so much you're watching "cnn newsroom" live. damage. it's going to have a i'm george howell. >> and i'm rosemary church. we want to check the headlines catastrophic impact on the for you this hour. the mass shooting that we've been following in the state of bahamas. talk to us about the shelters texas. "the new york times" reports the gunman from that shooting on that you're involved in, the saturday, quote, had been fired shelters and the kitchens, from his trucking job a few hours before carrying out that attack. because you've got them ready to go, haven't you? in the meantime, this the how difficult is it to respond scene in odessa, texas. in these situations and what is your plan going forward? mourners there coming together for a vigil for the seven people >> well, we are already stationed and we are very good at adapting. who were killed, 22 others because when you have a plan, injured in this mass shooting.

chinese state media are usually like we are seeing with this hurricane, maybe the plan warning hong kong protesters that, quote, the end is coming. they're addressing anyone who breaks apart. and if you are not able to attempts to disrupt hong kong adapt, nothing will happen. and antagonize china. it comes the day after the government of the bahamas, who art ones in charge of the many shelters in the two big demonstrators blocked transport links to the city's international airport. 25 flights were cancelled and islands that they are under this there was gridlock for hours. hurricane right now, they have if you are along the southeast coast of the united between 15, 17 in one of the states, you are watching out for islands. they have 7, 8 in the other. hurricane dorian. it is creeping along. we are talking around 50,000 could spend the next 24 hours people in grand bahama. over the bahamas, bringing heavy rain and sustained winds of 170 almost i think is 15,000/200,000 miles per hour. that's nearly 300 kilometers an people in abaco and the other hour. little islands around. this is the strongest storm to ever hit the islands. so we are talking almost 70,000 dorian ripped roofs off of homes people. so before everything, we already knew some hotel owners that they and brought widespread flooding. wanted to be part of the relief, we continue to track it for you. joining us now to talk more and they offered us to be using about what's happening is mike their hotels' kitchens. theis. mike, a storm chaser and but now we have no communication national geographic photographer and we need to wait in the in vero beach, florida. morning to check the aftermath good to have you with us, mike. as soon as they can communicate with us to see that those hotels

>> hey, george. how are you doing this evening? are still able to help us start >> mike, good. i want to get a sense, though, of what you're seeing on the cooking, and if not we have plan ground. obviously the preparations are "p" and we have plan "c." under way. like always, we will go like we this storm inching ever closer. did in mexico beach. the destruction was so huge that we did use a kitchen in the middle of the field next to the national guard and we began and we understand it's already made landfall in grand bahama island. cooking for everybody right >> yeah, that is correct, and there, right then. as you see sometimes, the best it's city heading due west. with that trajectory, the grand bahama island is going to of plans is to adapt. receive northerly winds that are and we are very good in going to go from north to south. if it keeps heading west all the way through freeport, it's going adaptation. >> right. and, of course, this is the strongest storm to ever hit to be catastrophic damage. these islands. so for a lot of people they it's already going to be that up the eastern end of the island, but there is a chance the entire never would have seen the force of winds that they're experiencing right now. are there enough shelters for everybody to go to? >> well, i mean, i think the island can get devastated. until it makes that north turn, florida needs to watch close as well. we know the north turn is going government -- the government of to happen, but we don't know exactly one. bahamas was having a brief one or two degrees could make a conversation with the governor huge difference to the florida today. beaches here. the plan is to document and with the head of what is called follow it up the florida coastline. mina, which is like the bahamian

fema. with the minister of tourism, >> mike, tell our viewers from the u.s. and around the world exactly what you do when these who is also in charge of relief storms come in. what is your plan? >> the plan is, we have the efforts. hurricane vehicle, and the plan and, listen, bahamas in their is to intercept the eye wall and history they've been through a eye, if it does make landfall. lot of hurricanes, and overall if it doesn't make landfall, they are usually highly we're still going to get to the closest proximity we can to it prepared. to document the wind speeds and but everybody i think the barometric pressure that is understands now that this is one happening within the storm. this storm has been really of the biggest hurricanes in recent memory. tricky. we almost went to puerto rico to get science information. and when that happens, you know, we almost went to the bahamas. but we ended up back here in the sometimes all that you prepare for, you have to come up with new ways. it. so i think the international aid is going to have to come in big force. i think the united states are going to have to come here, and so anything that happens along the east coast, we will document at the same time they have to it. >> mike, what are you expecting take care, we have to take care from this particular storm? even if it makes -- when it of florida and south carolina makes that hook to the north, and georgia and north carolina, the people of the bahamas are going to be in need of a very that side of florida, the coastline will still be under the dirty side, the worst part of the storm. >> well, if it stays just big response by america and by offshore, that side won't be the many ngos that will start quite as bad, but it will still arriving here, hopefully very bring the big waves, the big surf, but it the going to be bad soon. >> right. and you decided to ride out this regardless. what's happening also right now

storm with everyone this time. is the wind field is expanding. of course, you do have a restaurant there. so now that center doesn't even why did you decide that -- why have to get as close for us to see hurricane-force winds. did you decide that you needed to be there? they have evacuated already this >> listen, we are not just a vero beach area, this entire coastline is under mandatory group of friends doing this. evacuations just for that reason. >> what are you seeing there on i will say we -- i don't do this for a living. the streets and in the neighborhoods? do you get a sense, mike, that this is to use the ngo i most people decided to take heed created, but the people, the men and get the heck out of there or and women who are a part of the did a lot of people decide to kitchen they are by now, you stay and wait this out and see what happens? know, highly trained >> right. professionals. this year alone we've been in from what i've seen here in the vero beach area, especially right on the coastline and the barrier island, it's completely boarded up. indonesia, in mozambique, in the it's vacated. i mean, everybody has left here. volcanos in hawaii, the fires in they've gone back to the mainland. they've heeded the warnings, colombia. which is very good to see. i think they're seeing what's happening in the bahamas and again, we are good in what we also they realize this storm is do. we know that people need to be an historic storm. this is something you don't want to mess with. fed, and sometimes the response is not there. so just evacuate and be safe. >> and for those who are still that why we created war center on the knife's edge deciding kitchen to make sure that when there is not a response because whether to stay or whether to the problems are so big that we go, what do you advise them?

can be there very quickly, adapt to the situation and start you know, are the highways feeding as many people as we can pretty filled up right now? as quick as we can. how bad is the traffic? >> and we salute you for all >> the traffic actually in the vero beach area is not bad at that you and your team do. all. this is extraordinary work. >> that's good. and the people of the bahamas will appreciate it when you're >> and there's plenty of gas currently. providing them meals in the heed the warnings of your officials. aftermath of this. we'll be watching. do take care, you and your team if in your area they ask you for mandatory evacuation, i would do it. and everyone there in the i would highly suggest listening bahamas. to what they say. we appreciate talking with you. >> thank you. you know, safety is number one. >> mike, you know, you talk about flooding, and that is a well, hurricane warnings are big concern. posted along florida's east this is a very slow-moving storm, and as it sits over land coast. even if the storm doesn't make it will dump a lot of water. landfall there, it's still is that something that you think expected to do a lot of damage. will be a big issue with this >> an army of power trucks is particular one? >> it could be. already aassembling throughout the state to restore electricity again, it depends on how close that center actually makes it to and mandatory evacuations start the coast, but flooding is definitely going to be one of in the coming hours in parts of the hazards. florida, in georgia and south carolina. there is a lot of rain associated with it. and florida's governor has already this area of florida has received a lot of rain just from activated 4,500 members of the national guard just in case. their typical summertime thunderstorms. >> we're expecting gusts to be and it's already very saturated here. category 1, at least, during the we've hat the high tides

current projections, but once recently, too, that are bringing again, our biggest concern is the water up much higher. that -- is that storm stays a combination of all these offshore and as it starts to things is going to cause binge problems on the florida move up, it's going to be coastline if it keeps heading west. pushing an awful lot of water i'm going to watch it closely. until it starts making that, you off the ocean into the inlets, into the sebastian river inlet and the lagoons. it may have the possibility of know, strong north turn, we need to assume it's going to touch overtopping some dunes. the coastline. so we just want to make sure that this is going to be a we don't want to be caught off guard by a storm that is this strong. >> mike, i've been out there fairly significant -- very wet, very significant event as far as with you covering these storms, riding through these storms, the water push goes. documenting what happens. >> i want to remind our one thing that i've learned and i think you would agree, each storm has its own personality, right? residents to take hurricane some more about flooding, as we dorian very seriously. it is a category 5, very powerful storm. just raised. some more about the winds. it can be tempting to look at those spaghetti models and that track and hope for that turn to what's your expectation for this the north. one? >> my expectations for this one >> and jacksonville, florida is for florida, when it makes that turn, just offshore or on the one of the biggest cities in the u.s., and it could be directly coastline, wherever it is, we're going to have strong, gusty in dorian's path. cnn's diane gallagher is there. winds. there is going to be beach erosion. >> reporter: hurricane dorian may still be days away from there is going to be possible actually passing here around storm surge waves, depending, jacksonville, but officials are again, on how close it gets, but it's very crucial in how close not taking any chances. it gets. a local state of emergency goes

into effect at midnight in if it stays far enough offshore we'll see gusty wins and rain, jacksonville and mandatory evacuations kick in at 8:00 a.m. and maybe it won't be too bad, but if it gets closer to the for zones "a" and "b" as well as coast, it could be devastating. right on the beaches and coastline, the wind will come naval station mayport. several of the surrounding right off the water and down the counties also have mandatory beach line and cause erosion. we just got to pray it doesn't, you know, it makes that north evacuations in effect in turn very soon. preparation for whatever this >> mike theis will be on the unpredictable, as far as local roads documenting what happens officials are concerned, as dorian gets closer. hurricane may bring. mike, we appreciate your time. they're not quite sure what the impact will be, but they look at we wish you safety as you do your work as well. the past and they know that >> thanks. hurricane irma, hurricane appreciate it, george. matthew in recent history have caused significant damage, and we are following the specifically the st. johns river most serious cross-border in terms of flooding in the downtown and some residential exchange between israel and areas. so they want people to get out hezbollah in years along the of town now. lebanese border. a live report next. if they can't leave, they have shelters that are opening up at 10:00 in the morning on monday, making show making sure that people have, again, plenty of time to come up with a plan, get prepared and get out of jacksonville. schools are going to be closed on tuesday and wednesday. they don't want people to feel like they have to rush back after this storm goes out away

from here and continues up the coast, but, again, jacksonville asking their residents to be prepared, be ready and they'd rather them be safe than sorry. >> and still to come, a community in texas is in mourning. how the cities of odessa and midland are honoring the victims of saturday's mass shooting. ♪ how sweet the sound ♪ and grace my fears relief

well, tensions remain high along the lebanese border after the sharpest escalation in more than four years between hezbollah and israel. >> iran-backed hezbollah says that it attacked an israeli army

base and the nearby military vehicle. israel then responded with artillery strikes and helicopter fire. we have team coverage on this story with our oren liebermann. orr oren live in northern israel and our ben wedeman across the border in southern lebanon. oren, starting with you, fair to say this is the most serious cross-border exchange we've seen between these two nations since 2015. where to things stand now? >> reporter: at the moment, we hear a drone overhead and the israeli military, the idf remains on red alert. aside from that it's a very different story than it was just 24 hours ago on sunday afternoon when hezbollah in lebanon fired anti-tank missiles at israel. one of those anti-tank missiles hit a building in this military headquarters right here behind me. another struck a military vehicle about 1/4 of a mile from where we're standing. the idf says there were no injuries or casualties in those strikes. the idf responded with a series of artillery fire, some 100

shells they say from the area which those anti-tank missiles were fired as well as other targets in southern lebanon. they say they used what they called limited helicopter fire, but just two hours after this ♪ was blind but now i see began, by about 6:30 local time last eve, the idf lifted all the >> that the second time in four weeks that we've seen scenes restrictions on civilian life in like this in the state of texas. northern israel. that is a very strong indication that israel expects, at least odessa, texas, in ta community for now, this round of fighting, grieving remembering the victims of saturday's deadly mass though how sharp it was and how shooting. >> mourners gathered at this quickly it escalated, is over vigil sunday night. for now. they were singing hymns and we spoke with a leader in the local town, look, this border is praying for the seven people killed and 22 others who were tense. once they got the all-clear most injured. >> and we have new details about people are trying to and sort of the gunman. returning to a normal life as "the new york times" reports quickly as possible. that he had been fired from his though as i pointed out, the military does remain on high trucking job just a few hours before he went on this shooting alert. there has been essentially a threat given to hezbollah that this is us holding you rampage. >> police have not yet determined a motive and are responsible for iran leading still investigating. your actions and we'll see how riley carson has more. you act from here.

so at this moment we can sense >> i am heartbroken by the crying of the people of the state of texas. that there is a bit of quiet here. i'm tired of the dying. we'll see how quiet and how long >> reporter: texas is reeling in it lasts, george. the aftermath of another mass >> oren liebermann live for us. now across the border to our ben shooting. as the state and the nation wedeman. ben, what's the sense there? mourn, authorities are working is there a feeling that there is multiple crime scenes. >> please understand this is a de-escalation as well on that side of the border? >> reporter: george, certainly different type of active shooter looking around it does appear to that we were involved with be much calmer and less tense because we has mobile. than it was yesterday. >> reporter: governor greg abbot visited the wounded and the yesterday, for instance, these people treating them sunday. three of those victims are law fields behind me which were hit enforcement officers and one is by the -- according to the a 17-month-old girl. she's in satisfactory condition lebanese army by more than 40 israeli shells were on fire. and will have surgery monday to the fires were put out last remove shrapnel from her chest. night by lebanese -- the the names of the dead have not been officially released, but lebanese fire brigade. authorities say they ranged in in fact, they were doing it in a age from 15 to 57. very open area. among them, 29-year-old at so it appears there have been assurances received on both side that at least for now the hostilities have come to an end. hezbollah had said that it would

take revenge for an israeli strike last weekend on a facility outside damascus that resulted in the killing of two hezbollah commanders. also last weekend there was an incident where two drones, it's believed were israeli, crashed into the southern suburbs of beirut where hezbollah has a significant presence. and certainly yesterday what we saw in this spot were local inhabitants cheering on hezbollah for the strike on that armored vehicle. so there is a lot of pride in this part of lebanon in hezbollah. support for hezbollah, which in 2006 was able to essentially fight the israeli army to a stalemate. the israeli army, of course, backed by the united states. not lacking in any military equipment. hezbollah is backed by iran. but to a much lesser degree than

israel receives from the united states. but there are also vivid memories of what happened in the 2006 war. i was here in 2006 during the war, and many of the villages and towns in southern lebanon were utterly destroyed. more than 1,000 civilians killed. so people as much as they may take pride in what hezbollah is doing to not want to see a repeat of what happened in 2006. george? >> it is important to, you know, remind people of that. ben wedeman live for us. and oren liebermann as well. gentlemen, thank you for the reporting. we'll keep in touch with you both. all right. we want to bring you some live pictures now from hong kong. student protesters holding a rally there. now it comes after a weekend of protests and beijing losing patience. china's state news agency says the end is coming for demonstrations that disrupt hong kong and, in their words,

antagonize china, and hong kong's security secretary says the protesters are now showing, quote, signs of terror. police and protesters got into heated battles in the streets saturday. >> demonstrators through petrew bombs and police shot water cannons and tear gas to disburse crowds there. our will ripley gave us this report from the front lines of the confrontation. >> reporter: right now riot police have just moved out of this area, and you can hear the crowds shouting at them, cheering as they go. this has been a really extraordinary scene out here because protesters were determined to stage some sort of a disruptive event at the hong kong airport, but they weren't able to get inside the airport. let's get over here. because security around the airport is only allowing in passengers and flight crew, so what the protesters did instead was they caused disruption around the airport.

they set up barricades, set them on fire. the streets were gridlocked. the bridge to the airport completely impassable for hours. people had to get out of their cars and walk, people with their suitcases and luggage had to walk sometimes more than an hour just to make their flight. and now the riot police who came to this station had really nothing to do because all of the protesters who came into the mtr vandalized, spray painted, set off the sprinkler system, they all left before the police even arrived. so now officers are leaving after -- we didn't see them make any arrests here, as far as we can tell, and they move on to the next location where the next group of protesters might pop up inside. and police don't really know what the protesters are going to do next. that's been the whole point of this protest movement. move quickly, mess things up and get out before the police arrive. they feel that this is a sustainable model to make their point. 13th consecutive weekend of protests here in the hong kong, and even though the crowds are smaller, the protesters are more

aggressive and this shows no sign of dying down. will ripley, cnn, hong kong. and we will get you one more update this hour on hurricane dorian. bearing down on the bahamas right now. heading for the eastern coast of the u.s. and find out how cities in florida, georgia and south carolina are getting ready. we're back in just a moment.

less than a year ago. >> i really don't know what it think. i'm just kind of on edge right now. i'm trying to get prepared for it. >> how are you preparing? >> well, we're just trying to get perishables, getting water, getting flashlights, getting the necessity things that we need so we can be better prepared than last year. >> so last year there was obviously quite a bit of damage at your house. do you feel that the house you have now is better prepared to potentially sustain storm-force winds? >> i pray it is. i mean, i don't know because, i mean, it's more sturdy than what i had last year, but, you know, no one can really tell on how strong it's going to hold up, you know what i'm saying? >> right. >> so all we can do is pray.

>> and what is your plan? obviously we know the hurricane is still potentially a few days away and it's still unclear exactly where it's going to hit if it makes landfall in the u.s. that's still a possibly. what is your plan. >> well, i mooean, we plan to sy here, me and the boys. i don't know, like, where we would go to get away from it because i don't want to believe and then we can't get back. so, i mean, we're just going to buckle down and just pray that everything works out better than it did last year. >> that's what all these families are trying to do. thank you so much for joining us for our special coverage of hurricane dorian. i'm rosemary church. >> and i'm george howell.
