homes and i without power authority is a warning evacuated residents to stay put in shelters. resist the urge to go out and check on the damage we have days every ahead of us and that means more reversion will rise in flood communities. now cooling westwards florence is expected to linger for days forecast as a predicting more life threatening storm surges and flooding with parts of north and south carolina set to receive up to a meter of rain. let's now go live to detail because correspondent my assuage are standing by in washington north carolina you are on the ground what is the situation there now. nic we're in a small town that's just north of new bern one of the towns that was hit the

hardest and as you can see the floodwaters have mostly receded in this town but the banks of the pimlico river which we're standing right by are still very much overflow on to the park property here this all here is still very much flooded i am basically standing in the river while i'm standing on the sidewalk several meters back from where the river actually is supposed to start and we're still getting rain here and it's not expected to stop for several days as we were driving through the town here this is a very small community and we could very clearly see the marks about a meter high on the houses where the water had been just yesterday several several streets are still closed the police are still out trying to keep people indoors saying the water on the ground could be potentially unsafe if there's any downed wires anywhere we also saw branches lying in the streets still a lot of damage to be assessed and a lot of cleanup to be done here so you're talking about possible hidden hidden

dangers there mine of florence was downgraded to a tropical storm but we hear authorities are still warning people to stay at home is that partly why there's hidden dangers absolutely as we heard in the report they are still expecting several days of rain the winds here have mostly died down in this region is out of the storm's direct grasp shall we say but they're still expecting gallons and gallons of rain there was one estimate that said north carolina alone is going to get around ten true really in gallons of rain throughout the course so even though florence is no longer a hurricane they're still looking at massive flooding flash floods damage due to that and of course there's always the danger of people unfortunately dying what can we expect in the next few few hours and days that. well like we said there's still a lot of rain expected in this town and several towns around it in this county in this community under curfew at least

a night if not for the next several days trying to keep people off of the streets so if there are still any people who need to be rescued emergency crews can get to them and to keep people from trying to drive through streets like this causing further damage in this town alone of this town is less than ten thousand people there were ninety people who needed to be rescued in a big story in the next coming days is going to be how are they going to restore power to the hundreds of thousands of people across the state who are now without power especially as the flooding continues that's going to make it very difficult for rescue crews and for power crews to get through and rescue people on restore energy ok miles schwager thank you very much miles waiter from to be reporting from north carolina. and staying with dangerous weather typhoon mangled is barreling towards southern china and the densely populated territory of hong kong leaving behind a trail of destruction in the philippines. the storm made landfall on the country's main island of luzon early on saturday strong winds and torrential rains caused

c.s.u. officials back then criticized anglo machall who's actually their sister party representative for her what they called her open door policy towards refugees and for a long time it sounded as though the seas he was trying to imitate the f.t. and poles then clearly show that that strategy didn't work that voters didn't like that at all and so the c.s.u. has now clearly changed its strategy in fact the state premier marcus souter who spoke earlier here in munich said that the c.s.u. needed to attack the a.f.d. he said the sea is you need to distance itself from the a.s.d. very clearly and i asked some of the high ranking c.s.u. official says how they're planning to win back the vote. we have to clearly show that we do. have a clear line as regards migration policy that we have a plan it is what we actually have you know we want to help people who are asking

for asylum in europe that's not it is an issue but we also want to know that we don't know on the basis you know that we have a regular procedure to be established that you know who is coming into our country this is different to the dean who simply says no as. you know refugees at all in our country that is not our line. so change of one it would seem you know polls show the party is not just losing votes the f.t. but also to other parties are we seeing a revolt of some kind against the far right policies or to. well what we are definitely seeing is not the same is happening in bavaria what is happening on a federal level here in germany that the political landscape is becoming more frakt in fact at the very elections on the fourteenth of october we could see seven parties and in the very in palm and for the very first time and incidentally parties at the top establish really clear topics are really doing really well in

the polls and that includes the green party last year that many people thought the green party was almost dead but the green party could become second strongest posse thank you and you know. kazakh parker good boxer a good rematch with. her as it's being called the fight of the century by pundits the two middleweights met just under a year ago when the match was controversially ended in a draw and sparks flew at friday night's weigh in three world title belts are on the line and one of the fighters is set to have a home crowd advantage of sorts. with the crowd on saturday will be firmly in his camp so about is nicknamed meaning cinnamon will have plenty of mexican backing in las vegas on fight night it will be three hundred sixty four days since a controversial draw between the past save kanellos belt after the decision judge
