7:01 am
buenos dias. good morning. saturday, january 14th. welcome to your weekend. i'm boris sanchez. >> good morning. i'm amara walker. you are in the "cnn newsroom." and we begin this morning out west where more than 25 million people across much of california's coastline are under flood watches this weekend. >> only two to four inches of rain are expected today. keep in mind, recent storms which have already killed at least 19 people have left the ground extremely satch-related catch rated, many the could lead to floods and mudslides. residents should be cautious venturing out in today's storm. >> we are not out of the woods yet. the threat to communities remains and waters will continue
7:02 am
to rise even after these storms have passed. >> very heavy snow is also in the forecast for the sierras with an additional 3 to 6 feet of fresh snow expected through monday. >> the big concern is in northern california where officials are worried massive flooding could cut homes on the monterey peninsula completely off from the rest of the state. with us now to discuss is the sheriff of monterey county, california, sheriff nieto. we are grateful you are sharing part of a very busy day for you today. give us an update on how things are right now and which areas specifically are you most concerned about? >> so, good morning, boris and amara. i can tell you that we have been watching the storms since december 26th. that's a long time. that's over two weeks. and we are concerned about it because it's a slow-moving event. unlike wildfires, when rivers
7:03 am
7:04 am
coming, dangerous. the fury of a river, you don't know, standing water, you don't know how deep it is. one foot of water can move a car. we have lost life up don down the state from people who drove in thinking it was safe and caught in their cars, people trapped in their homes, not heeding our evacuation orders and warnings. and furtry of the ocean on top h our federal and state partners, working with the national guard,
7:05 am
working 4,000 square miles. monterey is a big county. we have had flooding throughout the county. with these teams in place, if we have to do rescues, we are doing a lot of messaging out to people, asking them to pay attention to the county website, if they have questions, to dial 2 # 1. and people need to pay attention. we lost 20 lives now since this started back in the end of december. >> yeah, sheriff, would you recommend that some folks evacuate? do they still have time? >> well, here's what we're recommending. on the websites, and any county that is experiencing this flooding, it's not just in monterey, it's the counties south of us and north of us.
7:06 am
if you go to the websites you can bring up the maps that show what areas ware under warning. if you are under warning, prepare. prepare if you get that call to be able to evacuate out. if you are under evacuation, please leave. do we don't want to put your family in danger, tell your loved ones that if something tragic happened you to. not only that. the workers, public works, the first line responders, you put them in danger when they have to go in and do a rescue because you didn't heed the warnings that -- and the messaging that we are trying to get out. >> yeah, it could also be very complicated if folks have to shelter in place for a few days and they are cut off from resources. sheriff, i am wondering if you have anything you want state or federal officials to hear about the situation that you are dealing with in california right now. >> well, i would hope they would think about, you know, california has changed a little bit. i am native to california.
7:07 am
i have grown up. we were used to the rain and now we are in droughts. one of the things is that with the ground being oversaturated there is nowhere for the water to go except into the rivers. maybe we might think about how we collect that water because we are still not out of drought conditions even though we are flooding. >> yeah. sheriff teme ate owe, thank you. let us know if there is any message you want us to put out there. >> thank you. it's been a pleasure. so california is soaked and still seeing rain and a second system bringing even more rain is right now moving in. yeah, they need a break and they are hoping for one soon. cnn meteorologist allison chinchar tracking all of this from the cnn weather center. will they get a break? where is the system now? >> yes, they will get a break. not necessarily in the short term. we have a couple more systems to get through in the next few days before we fwienlly see that long-term break. right now the heaviest rain
7:08 am
across portions of north and central california. heavy bands north and right along that area near sacramento. one thing to note is we have all this rain incoming in the next 24 to 48 hours. so you have got more than 25 million people under flood watches. the thing is, it's not just about the new rain that's coming, just like the sheriff mentioned, the ground is completely saturated in so many spots. so it's a combination of the two that's leading to the big flood concerns. for example, if you look at the last two to three weeks, a lot of these areas, reno, sacramento, san francisco and santa barbara have had roughly six months of rain in just those two to three weeks. so again it's a lot of rain, but also in a very short period of time, and now we are adding more rain and snow on top of it. here is a look going forward. you notice adds we go through the day the bulk of the rain are which is right now in northern and central california spreads to southern california also into nevada and arizona.
7:09 am
then we get a teeny little break early sunday before the next round arrives sunday afternoon and evening and this will likely continue into monday as well bringing additional rain and additional snow on top of it. in addition to those things, you also have winds. most of these areas you see here in orange under the wind advisory you are talking wind gusts up around 50 miles per hour. but once you start getting up in the higher elevations, now you are talking weekends of 60, 70, even 80 miles per hour. that's likely going to lead to additional power outages and also the potential for some trees coming down. overall, most of these areas in terms of rainfall, you are talking 2 to 4 inches. snowfall 3 to 6 feet in the sierras through monday, which is why you have the winter storm warnings. again, the good news, we will finally see things dry out by the end of next week. >> next week can't come soon enough. allison chinchar, thank you. so recovery efforts are underway across the south, especially in alabama and
7:10 am
georgia after severe storms killed at least nine people thursday night, including one child. at least 37 tornados were reported with one twister wrecking parts of selma, alabama. an historic american city known for the role in the civil rights movement. >> and thousands are still without power and, get this, temperatures are dipping below freezing at night. selma's mayor is asking residents to conserve water and to prepare for a rough few days ahead. >> we just completed an aerial viewing assessing the damage of the city. it's tough. a lot of people are shurting. the devastation is real.
7:11 am
we got a lot of work to do. >> mayor perkins becoming emotional there. cnn's ryan young has more from hard-hit selma. >> the roofs are just gone. trees look like toothpicks. a lot of work to be done here. >> reporter: alabama governor kay ivey visiting selma witnessing the damage left by tornados. residents left without homes and businesses. >> it's a lot to take. i have been trying to savage what i can all day. it's just hard. it's hard. >> oh, my god, yeah, look, oh, my god. >> reporter: at least nine deaths have been reported following the severe storms that spawned more than 45 reported tornados across the southeast. seven of the deaths --
7:12 am
>> a very intense storm, may have been on the ground more than 50 miles. >> reporter: alabama residents describing the sound of the storm as something like no other. >> just out of nowhere i heard a sound i never heard before. it sounded like a freight train come through here. and the wind picked up so strong, i had to jump out and i ran because everything was shaking like never before. >> it's a sad day for selma. we've got a lot of healing to do here. >> reporter: many roads are blocked with fallen trees and debris making it unsafe and difficult for some residents to get back to assess damage at their homes. >> i have not been able to get back there to see what it looks like. the road that leads to my house is blocked and i couldn't even go around it. >> reporter: in georgia, a 5-year-old boy was killed when a tree fell on the vehicle he was traveling in. >> unfortunately, a tragic night and morning in our state. >> reporter: tens of thousands
7:13 am
of customers in alabama and georgia still without power. officials are warning residents just because the storm passed,et the threat of damage from the storm has not. this is one of the scenes of where all the destruction is when it comes to the tornado. people were inside this store when they heard the tornado sirens. the roof started to shake and the windows went out. they got on the ground to ride out the storm. as you can see, there were cars that were caught below the roof that fell on top of them. they only got out with seconds to spare because of the powerful winds from this tornado. people tell us they are going to be trying to get through this for the next few days. >> yeah, it's going to take some time. ryan, thank you for your report. an alabama family says it is a miracle that they are alive today. and to talk about their harrowing experience after a tornado ripped through their home. i want to show you what's left
7:14 am
of the house. randall mcleod called this home. they were trapped under all of this debris for three hours until first responders could get to them. but you have to hear how he describes what happened as the tornado was touching down. listen. >> we heard the storm coming. i had a cousin, he got my mother into the hallway and i was going to the front door to see exactly which way it was coming from. i opened the front door and the porch disappeared and the trees started falling. tried to make to the hallway get into there where they were at. as i was stepping in the living room to get to the hallway the floor system, living room, everything, just disappeared out from under my feet in a flash and i fell through the floor system and was able to crawl back out of the -- out off the ground up into the house and get into the hallway and basically all with we had left standing
7:15 am
was the hallway that they were in and the small portion of the kitchen where i was standing. >> harrowing experience. randall mcleod said he was with his elderly mother and she, obviously, survived as well. very lucky. very sad as well. well, still ahead the white house tries to go on with business as usual as questions mount over president biden's handling of classified documents. what we're learning about the special counsel investigation and why republicans say they are looking into the doj's response. plus, air raid sirens blaring across ukraine this morning as russia launches another wave of attacks. we'll take you live to kyiv for the very latest. and police release new details in the case of a missing massachusetts woman. what we are learning about her disappearance. treat it that way with aveeno® daily moisture. formulated with noururishing, prebiotic oat. it's clinically proven to moisturize dry y skin

7:20 am
morning in kyiv just hours after russia launched a missile attack on the capital city. >> kyiv's mayor 15id the city was under attack as powerful explosions rattled the area. there have been several strikes in multiple ukrainian cities this morning with reports of russian missiles flying over several regions of that country. our correspondent scott mclean has been in kyiv all morning. scott, you were at a demonstration in the middle of kyiv and you had to head to an underground shelter. >> reporter: yeah, it was not long after we left that demonstration that the sirens went off about three hours ago or so. oftentimes, people in this city don't pay too much attention to the air raid sirens because they are a common occurrence. the last two weeks or so, there has not been bany incoming. this was different. there was incoming fire reported from the southern part of the
7:21 am
country and then quickly we started getting word of things actually landing in various areas. in kyiv people went inside of this metro station here to take shelter. there were hundreds of people down there with us taking shelter, deep, deep under the ground. ordinary people, many with their children, elderly people as well. this has been a common occurrence for people they have gotten go gotten pretty comfortable living for hours on end underground. reports of critical infrastructure has been damaged in the lviv rescue team, also in the central city of dnipro, a residential apartment building was, from the picture we are seeing so far, very badly damaged. officials say that ten people were injured, two were children and 15 actually had to be rescued from some of the debris, some of the rubble of that building. we have also gotten word from the kherson region in the northeastern part of ukraine
7:22 am
where officials say that there were two strikes on critical infrastructure as well and so potentially there may be power cuts, emergency power cuts there as well. that is the big concern when the russians have gone after this kind of energy infrastructure is the ability for the system to actually function given the power needs for a country that is in the middle of winter where it is quite cold. another thing is there was some strikes that actually hit the kyiv region earlier today. those explosions woke me up. they were very clearly heard from the city center and the sirens, air raid alerts went off after those came down. this system is extremely useful but certainly not foolproof. >> fortunately according to the mayor of kyiv, no casualties to report so far. scott mclain, thank you so much. from eastern europe to the middle east now because iran has executed a dual british-iranian

citizen. the country convicted him of being a spy for mi6. tehran hanged the 61-year-old according to state media. akbari was a former deputy defense minister in iran. >> now britain is condemning the execution of one of its own. the prime minister says this was a callous and cowardly contact carried out by a barbaric regime with no respect for the human rights of people. the white house is doing damage control after classified documents were uncovered from then-vice president biden at two private locations. the next steps after the break. . treat it that way with aveeno® daily moisture. formulated with nourishing, prebiotic oat. it's clinically proven to moisturize dry skin for 24 hours. aveeno® introducing the new sleep numbmber climate360 smart bed.

day for somebody, not you or me, boris, but someone in maine. a single ticket there won the mega millions jackpot worth $1.35 billion, boris. >> yeah, it wasn't us this time. but maybe soon, right? fingers crossed. >> please. >> this was the second largest jackpot in the lottery's history and the first time ever that someone from maine has won the mega millions. the big winner has not yet come forward. i would be surprised if they do because they would have people hounding them all the time, loved ones, right? when they come forward they could take home a potential lump sum of cash, a payout of $724.6 million, and if that's you, first off, give amara and i a call. some great investment opportunities, great ideas. also, stick around. later this hour we have a wealth specialist to talk through what the best options are if you wind

up a newly minted billionaire. >> great to dream, right? invest, yeah. buy us some nice things. that's how you can invest your money if you are the lottery winner. there is good news for the economy. there are new signs that inflation is finally slowing down, but a lot of consumers aren't exactly feeling that just yet because the cost of basics like food and housing still remain high. >> you know fears of a recession are still looming with that on their minds. regulators have more work ahead to get inflation bags to a healthy level. christine romans with more. >> a turning point in the national fight against rising prices. the consumer price index easing for six months in a row now, up 6.5% last month from a year earlier, down from 7.1% in november and down from 9.1%.
7:30 am
the first time that happened since the inflation crisis began in may of 2020. a relief, gas prices are falling. so are prices for used cars and televisions. but rent, mortgages and grocery bills stayed high. egg prices up almost 60% from a year ago thanks to higher feed and fertilizer costs and a bird flu outbreak that wiped out millions of chickens. wall street took the inflation news as evidence the fed's medicine is working and may be able to ease up, but there is work to be done. 6.5% inflation is well above the fed's target of 2%, so the fed is not done raising rates just yet. christine romans, cnn, new york. under pressure. president biden is facing growing questions about his handling of classified documents. >> the justice department has appointed a special counsel to take over the investigation after documents were found in two of the president's private offices. robert hur was nominated to the
7:31 am
federal bench by then-president donald trump. he is currently in private practice in d.c. and has been appointed the special counsel. >> separately, republicans are vowing to investigate the doj's handling of the case. they are questioning whether former president trump is being held to a different standard, a claim that some democrats deny. >> well, what's so surprising to me, this came out before the election. why does his department of justice treat people differently? why did they treat president trump differently? >> it would have been better had it not happened in the first place. but they dealt with it the right way. >> let's change in white house reporter arlette saenz. >> we have new reporting on what documents were found at president biden's residence in wilmington, deleware. our colleagues paula reid, evan
7:32 am
perez and phil mattingly saying that they learned ten of those documents had classified documents and none found at the president's residence had top secret put on those documents. that's the highest level of classification. so far, this is bringing the total number of documents that have been found, known to have been found, to approximately 20. the president's lawyers previously said that they found some additional documents in his garage as well as an adjacent room. the attorney general had outlined that they had found those -- or that they were notified of those documents, to discoveried at the residence november 20th with another item being found earlier this week. in addition to the documents at the residence, cnn has previously reported that there were ten documents with the markings of classified found at the office down here in washington, d.c., that biden used after he had left the vice
7:33 am
presi presidency. included in those ten classified documents were intelligence memos and briefing memos relighting to ukraine, iran, the united kingdom, a memo that then-vice president biden had written to president obama as well as briefing memos preparing the former vice president at the time for phone calls with the prime minister of the united kingdom as well as the president of the european council. this was all discovered back on november 2nd when the president's private lawyers were searching that penn biden center office and certainly there are so many more questions about how exactly these documents got to those places. but now we have that new reporting that there is about approximately 20 classified documents found between the office as well as the president's residence up in delaware. >> yeah, a much smaller batch of classified documents found in biden's offices versus what we're talking about that was seized at mar-a-lago.
7:34 am
thank you very much. >> digging deeper now into this document controversy. joining us is form federal prosecutor and cnn political analyst laura, white house correspondent for pbs. welcome both and good morning. renato, starting with you, i mean, there are two special counsels at the same time investigating a former and now a sitting president over the same issue, handling of classified documents, but we should clarify these are two very different investigations, right? >> no question. i actually think that these two matters have at best a passing similarity. as a practical matter, the two investigations in many ways are very different. they are investigating different statutes and different behavior. in former president trump's case, he willfully retained classified documents. you know, he received a -- you know, letters from the government asking for the
7:35 am
documents back, refused to give them back. he was, you know, he received a grand jury subpoena, refused to comply with that. there was a personal visit from the justice department. they still didn't get the documents back. it wasn't until there was alleged evidence of obstruction of justice that the justice department uexecuted a search warrant at his residence to retrieve the documents without his permission. that's very different, obviously, than the case of president biden, which really to me a better analogy is the hilary email case of 2016 where you have essentially what appears to be inadvertent mishandling of classified documents, a much different case and unlikely to generate charges. >> just to top you will on that, renato, would you say much less legal exposure for biden versus trump? >> no question. i would be very, very, very surprised if there are charges that result from the biden email case. in fact, i think the analogy to
7:36 am
hilary is god because i think in both cases the investigation itself is done in part for appearance purposes to ensure the public this being taken seriously rather than as something that will result in criminal charges. >> got it. so, from legal we love to talk politics and the political exposure is huge, right? and, obviously, this is creating an opening for republicans for quite a controversial showdown. how would you describe, laura, the -- president biden's, i guess, handling -- especially the drip, drip of disclosures. first monday the first batch we heard of classified documents and then days later a second batch, albeit a much smaller number of documents, 20 or so versus more than 300 that were seized in mar-a-lago. >> president biden addressed this actually one of the first days that it was revealed that there was that first batch of documents. he said that he was surprised that he had those documents at
7:37 am
the washington office and that he was told not to ask what was in them by his lawyers and wasn't aware of what was potentially in them. he is getting a lot of advice if his legal counsel, his special counsel in the lead up to in new congress because, you know, you mentioned, amara, that republicans maybe have in new opening. i would argue they didn't need an opening because they were going to investigate president biden regardless whether it was about classified documents or about his son hunter biden or about other dealings with his administration. so much of the investigations and these select committees that they are launching are all around president biden and also, actually, one of their new select committees to go after what they wcall the weaponizatin of federal government is about the fbi and it's about the fbi in response to the fact that the fbi went in and seized these
7:38 am
classified documents from mar-a-lago and all along house republicans had defended president trump, have not gone after him for the hand lining of classified documents, even though it's clear that the cases are different and that the former president resisted for more than a year returning these classified documents. >> right. but even if these investigations are different, renato, with these two special counsel investigations going on simultaneously, you can't, i guess, unmarry the politics from the legal, right? especially if it comes to the outcome that doesn't pursue anything against biden criminally but, you know, let say there are charges that come out against trump. no matter what the facts are, how do you think that'll play? >> well, you know, it's a great question. obviously, i don't know exactly what special counsel jack smith is investigating, trump is thinking. but that sort of consideration is not the sort of thing that
7:39 am
prosecutors usually take into account. when i was a federal prosecutor i wasn't considering when i was investigating and making charging decisions in a case what is on the next floor or a different office. i wasn't going to pull punches on a bank robber or child molester because some other bank robber might be charged or not charged. i think jack smith's purview is to make the right decision based on the facts and the law. that may have political ramifications and there may be a lot of political experts who could debate that. from purely a legal perspective, these cases have nothing to do with each other and i would expect jack smith to make a decision based on the facts before him. >> out of time. thank you both. >> thank you. adds the search continues for a missing massachusetts mom, we will hear from a were forecolleague of ana walshe on the community effort to find her. or “i'll h have all the bacon”"

massachusetts mother was accused of threatening to kill her even before therm married. that's according to a recently unearthed police report from 2014. >> but a police spokesperson says the case was closed because ana walshe, then ana knipp, refused to cooperate with the prosecution. is the latest disturbing details about the couple's relationship. gloria pazmino joins us now. you spoke to a colleague of ana walshe. what did she tell you? >> that's right. we have been trying to learn more about who ana walshe was and how her community is reacting to the fact that she has been missing for almost two weeks now. this is a community that is not only deeply disturbed by what they are learning about the case but also worried about ana and her children. i want to start with what we know about some of the disturbing facts of the case. we know that she was last seen
7:45 am
on new year's day around four in the morning. her husband, brian walshe, was seen on surveillance video at home team home depot where he spent several hundred dollars buying cleaning supplies. a missing persons report was filed and there was a search that was conducted. eventually brian walshe, the husband, a few days later was arrested and charged with misleading a police investigation. law enforcement sources have also told us they have found evidence of blood-stained materials and a hacksaw in the area near the honestly. now, as i said, we were trying to learn more about ana and what she was like, about her community. i want to play some of the sound that we just got from a former colleague of hers who spoke about what she was like at the workplace, a woman who was
7:46 am
