>> the one man she really wanted to adore her, i did not. >> to the outside world it is still a fairytale. the reality is different. >> for diana to look camilla in the i is a huge show of power. >> she wanted the life she had hoped for. she kept fighting for it. hello and welcome. you were watching cnn. just ahead, jackson's mayor leads with residents to get out immediately as record rain threatens more flooding in mississippi. we will have the forecast from the weather center. we are just hours away from the launch of the most powerful rocket to date. and historic step that will shape the future of space

exploration to the moon and beyond. the un nuclear watchdog makes it official that a team is going to ukraine's powerplant, amid fears of a catastrophe. live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom with rosemary church . >> thank you for being with us. we will start in the southern u.s. in jackson, mississippi and neighboring communities are keeping an eye on the river. expected to crest well above flood stage in the coming hours. water has already swamped parts of the city and some neighborhoods lost power. the state has distributed more than 100,000 sandbags and is stippling drones to assess water levels along the river's

path. the jackson mayor has been sounding the alarm for days, telling those in flood prone areas to evacuate. he told cnn that the city learned critical lessons from flooding two years ago that took weeks to fully reseed. >> if we risk the life of one individual, that is one too many. we want to make certain that we know that both people and individuals to the extent that some property can be saved. >> we have seen these events as easily as 2020. we know the damage that can occur. we are asking residents to heed the warnings that are being provided to them. >> the national weather service issued flood warnings for the area. let's now get to karen mcginnis

joining us live from the weather center. and yet another example of extreme conditions, the river sent to crest and jackson. what is the latest on flooding? >> in the summer where we have seen epic events that have produced crises in areas across kentucky and st. louis, also las vegas. the river is very prone to flooding. we have seen this historically. this year, just in august, more than 12 inches of rainfall. that caused the river to arrive in moderate territory. it is literally a fraction of where it would be in two major flood stage. it is crest at 35.5. it is expected to inch up just a bit more into the afternoon. there will be additional rainfall.

we are not looking at that soaking rainfall like we saw in the past week or so. lots of rivers all the way down toward new orleans. i took a look at some of the forecast crests for the areas around the world. they will be just below that major stage. it looks like we are pretty much in the clear as far as precipitation. if there is any forecast, it will be on the light side. that is an aggravating factor for people that have already been flooded and are still looking and casting a wary eye. some of that flooding a potential for flash flooding persists across texas, and southern louisiana. also in florida. they have tweaked things. here we go. >> this is the optimistic part. there is an 80% chance.

there have been a few storms. it looks like they are weakening. things are going into play. we will start to see temperatures pretty much in the upper 70s. in about a 20% chance of an isolated shower. beyond the first hour, it looks like a 60% chance of potential for the second hour. >> that is very exciting stuff. >> as we just heard, we are just hours from the scheduled launch window for the artemis 1 rocket. you are looking at live pictures of the launchpad at kennedy space center. this unmanned mission to the moon is the first of several for the us-based agency, nasa. the goal is to send astronauts back to the surface for the

first time since apollo 17. ultimately nasa hopes to someday land the first humans on mars. there is no crew for the flight, there are several objectives. scientists hope to accomplish. rachel crane has a preview. >> reporter: the weather is 80% favorable for launch. the window opens at a:33 eastern. it is a two hour window. mother nature is on our side. folks are not just keeping an eye on the weather. the rocket behind me has never flown before. several rehearsals didn't go exactly as planned. three wet dress rehearsals had many issues involving valves and leaks. the vehicle has never flown before. it is a really important part of the artemis program that

this flight is a success. that is because there are several major objectives. the need to test the heatshield of the spacecraft before they put crew on board. the need to make sure the rocket actually functions. they will also need to go through retrieval of the spacecraft. if the launch is successful, it will be a 42 day mission. the spacecraft will splashdown in the pacific. the need to retrieve that. there are avionics that nasa is hoping to use. that will be the first mission of -- to hope to achieve that next year and hopefully put humans again on the moon. the first woman in first person of color in 2025. >> cnn spoke with the retired

astronaut and asked him what has taken the u.s. so long to go back. >> the rocket has been in development since 2010. here we are getting ready for the main flight. getting back to the moon, we haven't been there for almost 50 years. this is very exciting. it is a stepping stone to mars to develop and test all of the hardware we will use to train astronauts as well as the scientific objectives. a little less efficient. unfortunately it is taking longer and a lot more money than it would in the past for reverence. the apollo program, nasa was created in 1958.

somewhat less than 11 years later, we landed the first humans on the moon. this program has been going since 2004 or 2005. that is just a reference point. we are here now. the launch is exciting. it cost more than most of us thought it would. it has taken longer than most thought it would. >> administrators are sticking with the goal of landing humans on mars by 2033. to your set by the obama administration. we are following the latest developments related to the fbi search of donald trump's mar-a- lago home. adjust judge set a hearing for thursday to consider the request for a special master to oversee the review of the materials. a judge indicated she is leaning toward doing so which means a third-party attorney would filter out potentially privileged material found at

the residence. the news comes as the head of national intelligence tells congress, a damage assessment has been launched into the documents taken. several lawmakers have been calling for the move after the fbi search this month. ron brownstein is a senior political analyst and senior editor for the atlantic. he joins me now from los angeles. ron, a damage assessment will be conducted by the director of national intelligence to see if all the classified documents recovered from the mar-a-lago home pose any potential risk to security or a threat to u.s. agents in the field. as it happens, the department of justice will continue the criminal investigation and the florida judge will appoint a special master to assess documents as a third-party. where do you see them going? >> in the near term, what it

has done is help transform landscape of the midterm election. we think of midterm elections in the u.s., primarily functioning as a referendum on the party in power. that was the dynamic earlier this year. so many things have happened between the january 6 committee and the mar-a-lago search warrant and reaction to it by both donald trump and republicans in congress. that combined along with the supreme court decision overturning the right to abortion and growing concern about gun violence in the texas massacre have change the playing field. also putting in a much better showing than anyone thought possible. it guarantees it will be going on for months.

-- by the pressure from him and his base to defend him at every turn even if the make the conduct more important. >> it authorized the search. >> the indicated that the doj is working with civilian witnesses focusing on obstruction of justice. >> many with more expertise than i have made the case that if it was anyone else they would be indicted. >> ultimately, the question comes down to the political and

legal choice. the question will be just as pointed over the actions leading into the january 6 insurrection. >> it is amid claims that the abortion issue hurt republicans. the new york times is reporting a surge of women registering to vote. after the supreme court decision that took away the constitutional right to abortion. >> how do you think this in all of these issues in this shift that we seem to be saying will impact the outcome of the midterms. >> in many ways, the best way to conceptualize what is happening, we have one weather system that is beginning to move out another. the system that was controlling the midterm elections for most of the year, was the dynamic of

the referendum and the party in power. than the voters expressing dissatisfaction over inflation in the economy. over the past several months, we have seen what amounts to be a new weather system in a new complex of issues, intruding on that dialogue. gun violence includes climate which democrats have now passed the most to you for confederal act ever to address climate change. it includes all of the issues around the threat to democracy and the reemergence of trump and the focus on him. all of this doesn't completely erase the threats to democrats from -- and the satisfaction. also from the usual tendency of the party in the first midterm. it certainly created an opportunity for democrats to hold the senate and perhaps to

gain governorships and reduce probably the feeling of house seats that republicans can realistically hope to attain. >> in a few weeks we will see where it lands. anti-radiation pills are being handed out, signaling growing concern about a potential disaster at europe's largest nuclear plant. millions of people are being impacted by deadly flooding in pakistan. what we are learning about the scope and scale of the devastation. we are back in a moment. w way for you to sell your car whether it's a year old, or r a few years old we want to buy your car so go to carvana enter your licenense plate answer a few questions and our techno wizardry calculates your car's value and gives you a a real offer in seconds when you're ready we'll come to you pay you on the spot and pick up your car that's it

it is felt all around the country. in the north, thousands of people were forced to evacuate, after flash flood's caused the river to rise. wiping out a critical ridge and cutting off roads. there are fears that the waters could wipe away more structures. many rivers have already done so. these families camped by the road. >> the water level rose a little and brought the goods to the rooftop. we could not bring the household with us. we came out on the highway with our lives, children and cattle. the water level had risen until it is knee-deep. >> in pakistan, many people are trying to salvage what they can. after losing their homes to the

authorities are reviewing allegations that a rookie a teenage girl last year . he was released from the buffalo bills over the weekend after he and two other players were accused in a lawsuit brought by the victims. >> the bills making the decision to release -- days

after he and two college teammates were accused. take a lesson. >> i would say it is not easy. you are trying to but fax around the situation. sometimes with limited information. >> the rookie and his defendants were on the san diego state team at the time of the alleged incident. according to a lawsuit filed last week by the attorney, the three men are accused of gang of an 17-year-old girl during a halloween party . the complaint alleges that the girl was separated from her friends and then met -- who could observe she was heavily intoxicated.

the filing states that eventually led her to a bedroom where there were at least three other men including leonard and -- . the lawsuit alleges she was for about 90 minutes until the party was shot down. and stumbled out body and crying. then underwent an exam at a hospital. then maintains she was not visibly intoxicated. i look forward to quickly setting the record straight. the attorney declined to comment.

than the circumstances under which he reported the incident. the d.a. office said police submitted the investigation and are reviewing it. they did not say when the decision might be made. the university is also investigating. then start shooting at the people. the police chief said the suspect was later killed by an officer. >> the shooting left four people dead including the suspect. the investigator say it happened in the early morning hours. >> the owner rented individual rooms to tenants.

the suspect is described as a man in his 40s. and shooting several residents attempting to escape the fire. firefighters quickly responded and at one point had to retreat. -- describes what took place. they sadly and easily set fire to several residents. they come out and fired upon them. it is as they prepared to fight the fire. >> the suspect is believed to have been a long-term resident that had been recently notified of the eviction according to the police chief.

is as the investigation continues. >> the biden administration is ending a program offering free at-home covid test to all residents. starting friday, test will no longer be available to order through the website. congress has not approved additional funding to replenish the supply of test. >> it is multiple rounds of availability. the administration will continue to work with the limited resources it has to secure as many tests as possible. jill biden has been staying

isolated after testing positive for a rebound case. she was prescribed paxil of it after her initial test. a medical correspondent reports, covid rebound cases are probably more common after taking the drug than previously thought. pfizer said only 2% of people experience rebound. we have heard story after story of people that had rebound. it does make you wonder if that 2% is right. it is about people that have covid-19, take it and experience rebound. the study said 5.4% experience rebound within one month. that is higher than 2%.

then the first lady and dr. anthony fauci, stephen colbert, the list goes on. dr. reiner, both familiar faces. dr. cc often. they both experience rebound. the fda asked for more studies. perhaps people need to take it for longer. there are people that could benefit. the people that would benefit the most, people that are 65 and older. people that are immunocompromised and those with underlying conditions like diabetes or heart disease. there are people that have benefited. but they found, without it,

people were four times more likely to end up in the hospital with covid-19. the bottom line is if you are at high risk, then paxlovod might be worth the risk. rebound might be okay if the drug saves your life. residence under strict water restrictions as the state battles a record raking drought. not everyone is playing by the rules, including the rich and famous. we show how authorities are forcing repeat offenders to come back. a funny damien someone is violating restrictions.
