7:00 pm
the major milestone rolling thunder just reached. and from the wars of those motorcycle engines to the silence at the final resting places for our heros. some of our youngest scouts paying tribute with flying colors this memorial day weekend. also, it stretches 1.7 miles but spans generations of american history. celebrating one of the world's most recognizable landmarks, happy birthday, golden gate bridge. we begin with a fox weather alert. tropical storm beryl intensifying. forecasters saying beryl will hit the united states late tonight. it is centered 85 miles east of jacksonville, florida right now. tropical storm warnings now in effect for the entire georgia coastline as well as parts of florida and south carolina. people there bracing for heavy rain, wind and the threat of very severe flooding. also the storm system ruining
7:01 pm
memorial day weekend plans. shoreline campers sent packing heading inland. several events in florida including a memorial day day jazz festival canceled ahead of the storm. winds knocking down tree limbs and power lines in coastal georgia leaving hundreds without electricity at this hour and this is all before beryl has made a grand entrance. we have team fox coverage tonight. rick reichmuth from the extreme weather center but let's start with elizabeth prann from the beach in florida. >> these are by far the worst conditions we have seen yet today. the winds picking up quickly and rain coming down. gusts between 30 and 40 miles per hour on the beach. the storm has not even made landfall yet. still another three hours away at the least. at that time the winds should be double what they are right now. we also can expect between 3 to 6 inches of rain. we just heard from the mayor at a press conference and he said if folks are anywhere outside
7:02 pm
of their homes that is not where they are supposed to be. they need to hunker down. the worst of the storm a yet to come and it is approaching aing as we speak. >> i was reading they had rescues that had to take place. you think people would heed the warning. >> 7 rescues on this beech alone. 30 in jacksonville and more than 100 along the region of florida, georgia, south carolina and north carolina. curiosity seekers are inevitable. that being said the rip currents as you look over my shoulder. when people want to get in the water the fact of the matter is that rip current can sweep you off your feet in a matter of seconds. one thing the mayor has insisted on is right now if you go anywhere near the beach you are going at your own risk. the beaches are not safe for folks to be out. harris? >> curiosity seekers. i can think of a whole different word for them. elizabeth prann, thank you very much. for more on what to expect from
7:03 pm
tropical storm beryl we turn to meteorologist rick reichmuth in the fox weather center. rick? >> it has gotten stronger the last few hours and you don't like to see that as it is getting closer to land. we had kind of a minimal tropical storm and now to a strong tropical storm. winds up to 65 miles an hour. this is the visible imagery. the last few lops we start to lose daylight on it. just east of jacksonville. you can see the bands of yellow and red intensifying and getting close right here to the coast. right where elizabeth is we will be seeing the strongest winds and rains moving onshore are quickly. the center like li likely makig landfall around the midnight time frame. that is the calm in the center of the storm. the worst conditions over the next couple of hours. it could strangen up to a 70-mile an hour or so storm before it makes landfall. by tomorrow afternoon
7:04 pm
continuing off towards the west and then a hard right turn and going to hug the coast here of the chair li carolinas and by y afternoon we will still be talking about the storm bringing a lot of rain right here. rain is a good part of this. a desperate drought across area of florida and georgia. where the bulls eye of rain is where the worst drought it. that is good news. it will come at a price, though, with strong rip currents, likely flooding and probably significant power outages especially across coastal areas. >> a blessing for the drought stricken areas but also report of a tornado threat and dangerous heat moving across the country. >> a big heat wave. at least a three day heat wave. you can see that where the dark oranges and red ares are currently. 90 degrees in minneapolis. 96 chicago. the first time ever that you have gotten over 95 degrees this early in the season. right there is a cold front moving on through and a pretty
7:05 pm
potent storm. significant threat for severe weather from parts of oklahoma up through minnesota. where you see the red here storm prediction center issued a moderate risk for severe weather right there and already starting to see tornado concerns. severe thunderstorm watch boxes in effect but the storms exploding. the red spots there around the norfolk, nebraska, area where we have tornado warnings. rough evening ahead and maybe into the overnight hours for severe weather across the plains. >> thank you very much. a fox urgent now. international pressure mounting on the regime in syria as the slaughter of innocent civilians continues virtually unchecked there. the united nations just wrapped up an emergency meeting. that meeting popping up as it became clear the shaky cease fire all but officially abandoned now inside syria. the security council officially condemning an attack in one syrian town in particular which
7:06 pm
lasted for more than 18 hours. u.n. observers confirming artillery and tank shells killed some 108 people in the town. 32 of them children under the age of ten. the bloodshed unjustifiable according to the security council members. >> the security council has made it abundantly clear through its resolutions that there are no circumstances whatsoever that justify the use of heavy weapons and tanks against civilian population. >> syria's ambassador also condemning the violence but was quick to respond to what he called unfounded allegations. >> i would like here to condemn also on behalf of my government the tsunami of lies that were said a few minutes ago by some members of the council who tried to mislead you. >> and it has been a busy last
7:07 pm
few hours as many people came out of the meeting and walked up to the microphones talking. joining me is former u.s. ambassador to the united nations, john bolton. ambassador, thank you for being with us tonight. >> glad to be here. >> we want to gain perspective on the importance of the sunday meeting. with the urgent u.n. meeting and stronger words from the white house and state department yesterday is the united states likely to get more involved in syria? >> it is not clear from simply having this meeting although obviously it is unusual to have it on a sunday. the british and french wanted to try a stronger press statement. the russians and chinese objected and that is why the discussion went on for as long as it did. this statement certainly condemns the shelling by the syrian government but doesn't condemn the execution style killing of dozens of those casualties that you referred to because the syrian government accuses of opposition of having done that. the russians carrying water for
7:08 pm
the syrian government basically made sure the statement was ambiguous on that point. it is not at all clear whether the council is going to do more than condemn the violence as it has done many times before. >> senator john mccain of arizona with strong criticism today for the obama administration not doing more say even a year ago. what more could have been done? is it too late at this point? >> i think certainly by relying on the u.n. and relying on the mediation efforts of former u.n. secretary general kofi annan which was a strategy doomed to failure the administration is certainly responsible. i would have to say it doesn't strike me as immediately obvious what we can could, if anything, to aid the opposition. i think there are grave risks for the u.s. in arming people whose backgrounds we are not really aware of. the administration says it is now vetting opposition leaders to see who it can trust.
7:09 pm
i think senator mccain pointed out that could have happened a year ago instead of now. northbounnonetheless it is impe not be arming people who could commit their own atrocities. >> i'm just getting this word in. stand which while i read this. u.n. ambassador current susan rice just tweeted the u.n. security council condemn the senseless horror in this town this weekend, a deliberate and shocking massacre. to see different people talking about this meeting today, what does that tell you? >> well, nobody can deny this was an atrocity. it is really the violence is appalling. and it reflects that the efforts for the cease fire have broken down. but the idea that the security council is going to do anything is highly unlikely given the russian and chinese approach. there is a report this weekend from an arab television ne news
7:10 pm
station that are you you sha was in the process of supplying the syrian government with new weapons. if that report turns out to be true there is no surprise the russians are blocking the council from doing anything effectively. >> you and i spoke earlier before i let you go, i want to get your thoughts on if we were to get involved the united states i know you told me earlier it is kind of who you would back because you don't know a whole lot about the rebels. didn't we learn the same thing in libya. >> once you give somebody the weapons there is no guarantee that they will keep the weapons and they won't fall into other hands and this really is different from libya in one important respect and this is iran backing the asaad regime. iran and russi russia together. we need a wroter strategy. we need to factor it into our dealings with iran on their nuclear weapons program.
7:11 pm
>> john bolton, thank you so much for being with us on this sunday. >> thank you. many people consider him a hero for helping the united states take out the world's most wanted terrorist but apparently not his own government. now, defense secretary leon panetta with strong language for pakistan after it jailed that doctor who helped take down osama bin laden. and hand to hand combat in a toll booth. that's a big 10-4 kosher. with no fillers, by-products, artificial flavors or colors. hebrew national. the better-than-a-hot dog- hot dog.

doctor to 33 years for helping in the search for the most notorious terrorist in our times. this doctor was not working against pakistan. he was working against al-qaeda. and i hope that ultimately pakistan understands that because what they have done here i think does not help in the effort to try to re-establish a relationship between the united states and pakistan. >> u.s. officials urging pakistan to release that doctor. it is believed he ran a vaccination program and used dna information he collected to help the cia verify bin laden's location. the terror leader was killed as you know last may. the catholic archbishop of washington, d.c. reacting tonight to the obama administration contraception mandate. cardinal wuerl saying the

7:17 pm
important that we have a moment like this. >> do you think it is political bias on the part of the networks? >> i think we have to take a look at this in the much larger picture. >> cardinal timothy dolan the archbishop of new york is also involved in the legal fight. he says the exemption is so narrow that institutions will be called on to prove they are catholic enough to qualify. but there are other catholic groups that think the exemption is just fine and the bishops versus a right wing political agenda. james salt of the catholics united group says these lawsuits reflect a sad reality for american catholics. the leadership of the catholic church is more interested in playing politics than it is in providing for the common good. that controversial mandate goes into effect in august. harris? >> steve, thank you very much. a young college student goes missing and now newly released surveillance video believed to show her on her bicycle before she disappeared. what else on this tape caught
