five million people could be left with. new bern north carolina what looks like swamp land. is actually small town suburbia. newburn usually sits at the confluence of two rivers right now it's residents on nearly underwater and in need of rescue that's all terrified of my life. it was hard i'm. just wondering what. and where the water's going to go and now it's going to hell and how we're going to get out and hopefully we're going to get trapped in the attic and that help has already reached hundreds of people up and down the east coast of the united states and many more have evacuated but it's not over the flood danger from this storm is more immediate today then when it was then when it made landfall just twenty four hours ago we face walls of water at our coast along our rivers across four million in our cities and in our towns

war people now face imminent threat then when the storm was just offshore i cannot overstate it floodwaters are rising and if you are watching for them you are risking your life. people and wildlife have been overwhelmed. this is a risky team about eight hundred miles further north in upstate new york. the storm when it made landfall was huge stretching across most of the east coast. now hundreds of thousands of homes without power and people are holed up in shelters as the storm runs its course. full costs are predicting more life threatening storm surges and flooding is florence moves west parts of north and south carolina set to receive up to a meets of rain. florence and its effects lingering for days to come. let's

go live now to do that because one of my shrewder was standing by in the city of new bern north carolina my what is the situation room where you. will be rushed behind me you can see an example of just how strong the winds were and still somewhat are and how high the water got if anyone is missing a yacht it's in the parking lot of this hotel right here we also saw a sailboat a lifeguard vessel whole dock that had been ripped out of the water and smashed into the side of the gas station this storm let me just remind everyone was a category one and that was after a weekend dramatically coming over the atlantic ocean so we can see just sort of just struction that something even that's just a category one can cause and speaking with residents in new bern which is the town that so far has gotten the most destruction

a lot of them said you know after they had heard that it weakened they decided to stay in their homes they didn't really think it was going to be that big of a deal they maybe got some water and some flashlights and then the flooding started the rain started and they didn't stop and one thing that a lot of people have said to us is next time they are definitely going to leave when they are told to leave. and roughly two hundred people as we understand but evacuated from the city radioed in right now are all part of his being able to reach people in need to specially those people who are who have stayed but could potentially. this is something that has been a big concern of the mayor of new bern in an interview this morning said that they had rescued a few hundred people but that there are still some as of this morning that we're still waiting to be rescued and several towns in this region have imposed curfews on their residents in order to further aid and rescue workers who are getting trying to get through these flooded streets to get. people see that there's no one

in their way there's no one else on the streets driving through these potholes and possibly getting stuck and possibly needing further rescue i will say that there are a lot of folks who are out walking around here in the remains of the hurricane here just sort of surveying the damage trying to figure out what exactly happened to them in the last two days. briefly mano florence as you've mentioned the house still gone but it's and remains of what can we expect in the coming few days. we can definitely expect more rain as it continues to push west right now it's over south carolina pushing west towards kentucky where part of the appalachian mountain range is and those martin haven't seen rain like this. possibly in living memory so we don't know what's going to happen there and i saw one estimate that. florence dumped somewhere around ten trillion gallons of water on the north carolina alone and it's still moving it's still raining here as you can see we're

also looking at how exactly are they going to restore power to the hundreds of thousands of people in north carolina who lost power during the storm thanks very much for that much in north carolina stay safe. staying with the stormy weather in the philippines typhoon bunkered as opposed to major destruction after making landfall in the north of the country at least twelve people out of port killed strong winds and torrential rains have caused pot to just floods and dozens of landslides many of those affected have been taken to social media to share some dramatic images. this clip was posted by a facebook user and shows baguio city in the northern part of the zone. the main island in the philippines baguio is a popular tourist destination for many well to do filipinos but it's also home to many of the country's poor and indigenous people who often live in more improvised homes and it's likely the poorer neighborhoods will be especially hard hit by
