concern. we have been seeing near constant rainfall. it has been building up rivers, streams, and lakes here. you can see as the wind and waves the last to weeks had been building and coming on shore. it has been pounding the beach, eating away at the sand. this is the beach erosion. this is where it normally would be. we're looking at three to four feet of sand that has been eaten away, getting closer to the homes and businesses all along here. it's been heating up some of the beach wall that has been put up here along the beach to help protect these homes and businesses all across the coast here. this is what we are seeing. it's not just here along the ocean with the rivers and streams as they have been building up. officials say there is simply nowhere left for this water to go. any more will just lead to more problems. tonight we are expecting more rain. tomorrow as well. they say flooding is going to

happen because there's nowhere left for this water to go. kelly? >> for that area, that's always a bad thing. having lift there, i know so well about beach erosion. it is a very, very difficult thing for virginia beach and the other areas along the coast there. garrett, thank you. >> reporter: you got it. let's take a closer look at joaquin's path. janice joins us. as you mentioned earlier, regardless of whether this is making landfall, it will still be packing serious winds that will causality of damage. >> absolutely. we have coastal flood advisories battering the coast not only today but through the workweek. this storm is already historic. almost category 5. 150-mile-per-hour sustained winds. this is the picture taken from our satellite up above.

the answers are not sharp enough. they don't know where the ship is. we just want our husband and dad home. >> reporter: they said el faro was given the go ahead to sail despite the threatening weather, confident the crew could handle changing weather situations. kelly. thank you very much, bryan. a deadly hospital bombing in afghanistan. at least 19 people were killed when a clinic in the northern city came under attack. the medical facility belonged to the charity doctors without borders. the u.s. is now confirming it was in the area when the air strike happened. molly is live in washington with more. molly? >> reporter: hi, julie. doctors without borders, a humanitarian group, had been informed, had been given the gps coordinates of this hospital in

northern afghanistan. they say an air strike by a u.s. military aircraft hit the facility and killed 19 people. that's according to doctors without borders. u.s. forces in afghanistan, however, said the strike hit, "in the vicinity of the hospital." ash carter called it a tragic incident in an area where there has been intense fighting the last few days. he said a full investigation is under way. it's not clear if taliban fighters were using it as a shelter to fire on troops. afghan officials insist they were. coalition troops had been trying to oust them. u.s. special operation forces imbedded with an afghanistan military unit were under fire from the taliban. they called in a u.s. military aircraft circling overhead. doctors without borders says 12

accommodations will follow. president obama is acting on a softening of the american position with respect to president assad in syria. and interestingly, so is putin. so there is the possibility that the two sides may be able to get-together after a dangerous round of military escalation. >> president obama also said that apparently mr. vladimir putin had gone to, quote, go out of syria not out of strength but out of weakness because assad's regime is crumbling and sending money and arms isn't enough. is president obama right? >> well, he's right certainly that putin has gone in a big way militarily. and right now, according to what

we hear and according to the information from the pentagon, the russians are bombing anti-assad but sort of pro-western positions in syria. in other words, the people the united states has been supporting. this is one of the large reasons why it is so dangerous now. let us say, for example, that these rebels get american anti-aircraft missiles. russian plane comes over. they shoot up at it. shoot it down. and the russians say you, the united states, was responsible for that for killing russians. that is what i mean by the danger inherent in the situation. both sides are going to have to play it very close to the vest because on any given day not by design but by accident something dreadful could happen. >> president obama also reject calls for deeper u.s. intervention in the conflict.

he asked that the u.s. is not about to get into a proxy war in the middle east. do you agree with that assessment and what are the dangers in the current buildup? >> some of those dangers are very well articulated. the most important being that by accident with, with our planes over the same area, they with their planes went to hit the other, and you're in a terrible, terrible mess. what the president means by not a proxy war, he doesn't want the united states to be on one side of a rebel insurgency and the russians to be on the other side because the president does not see any advantage to that for the united states. he would like very much for there to be what he calls a phased, kind of accommodation, phased transition that gets assad out of power. and actually the russians seem to be moving in that same direction but it will take time. and it's very tricky. >> is there room for political

compromise in syria? >> there is room. there is room. the language has begun to change. and secretary kerry has said it is not all that important whether assad stays around for another day, another month or, quote, whatever. and that is what the russians seem to want now too. in other words, you have a notion. assad is sort of a part of that negotiation. a new government takes over. assad is there for a limited period of time. and then he goes on vacation in russia. i mean, that is a fanciful formulation, but it is possible. >> marvin kalb, let's hope. thank you very much. >> thank you. two weeks ago we showed you the contribution to building the legacy of motown records. the sound of america. she was there in the beginning as the only female of motown's

targets are islamist jihadi groups, their planes are hitting rebels backed by the cia. proxy bombing raids for a proxy war. in short, russian aggression filled the vacuum created by america's failure to take on radical islam in syria. whether the theory that talking solves everything, the president once again showed lame understanding of foreign intentions. none involvement and withdrawal are his trademarks. an easy deal with cuba, notwithstanding. as terrified syrians streamed into europe by the thousands, russia's president vladimir putin told a purchase tesper tu bed barack obama he would go his own way especially show showing an uncool like for the kgb spy.

creating foreign local armies, a backbone of obama's strategy, almost never works. some say why not join mr. putin and his quest to shore up assad's power? fewer lives lost and isis history. the president, however, would make a moral issue of his policy and it's too late for him to smother his pride. so the quagmire crowd is back with the theories of russian failure. let the forces of rush, iran and hezbollah try to rescue assad, and they'll end up sinking into middle east madness. it's just as einstein defined insanity. he said, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. appalachian trail officials looking to crack down on bad behavior from hikers. a growing number of hikers in maine, in fact, openly drinking and using drugs at a state park
