>> we want you to take a look at this. this is a storm shelter. the one place you're supposed to be safe during the storm, pulled from the ground. bridgecreek, oklahoma, one of the hardest hit areas. that's where ryan owens starts us off. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: hey, robin, good morning to you. take a look at the scene around me. we're in the garage, or what's left of it. a lot of it looks like it's about to fall down. of a very nice brick home, one of many damaged in this area. the couple who lives here, they're fine. they rode out the storm. their home, anything but okay. look at the damage up there on the roof. this, 1 of about 50 homes here with significant damage. >> tornado forming right now. >> reporter: dozens of tornadoes tear through the southern plains. right through populated areas around oklahoma city. >> this is the most significant of all tornado warnings that we can have. a tornado emergency. >> reporter: just south of the city, more than a dozen people are injured when this mobile home park takes a direct hit.

>> we had a 17-year-old victim trapped. we had to lift the rv off the gentleman. >> it's on the ground now. >> reporter: watch as this cyclone lifts off the ground. >> about a half mile away from itment >> it got really windy. like sheet rain coming. wild, scary. >> reporter: power lines igniting. >> a tornado is on the ground. that's what we're worried about. >> reporter: in kansas, you can hear the power of this monstrous funnel cloud forming, moving across fields and roads. >> oh, my gosh! >> we have a roof that just flew through the air here. >> reporter: drivers dodging debris as sirens blair. buildings in its path, destroyed. >> completely collapsed. power is out out here. >> reporter: a storm shelter designed to save lives ripped from the ground. this fire house, flattened. and it wasn't just the wind. but the water. eight inches of rain fell in oklahoma city wednesday. a single-day record.

countless drivers had to be rescued from the high water. and a live look this morning at the storm shelter that the couple that lives in this house, they rode the storm out in there. it saved their lives. imagine what they thought when they came up from there into their garage and saw the mess. scary night for a lot of folks. damage done at a local zoo. for awhile, they thought exotic animals had escaped. fortunately, they're back where they need to be. the one thing everybody talking about, george is the fact that right now there are no reported deaths. >> thank you, ryan. let's get more from albert ashwood, the head of the oklahoma department of emergency management. thank you, mr. ashwood. as ryan just said, a miracle that no one was killed. given all this destruction. >> yeah, actually was. we had storms firing up from 2:00 yesterday afternoon through after 11:00 last night. it was a devastating day here in oklahoma. >> seems like people were fairly well prepared.

>> well, i think so. unfortunately, we have a lot of practice with tornadoes and severe weather here in the state. they do an excellent job preparing for such events. >> and you've also got this continuing challenge of flooding, as well. >> absolutely. the storms haven't finished. we're looking for storms the remainder of this week throughout the weekend. there's still a good chance for severe weather coming up. >> what about reports that a zoo was impacted? >> you know, i heard the reports that you did. my understanding is there were some exotic animals that were free for a time. but they've been captured and they're back contained again. >> anything you'll need from the federal government today? >> we're in constant contact with our friends at fema. region 6 has worked with us very well. we're talking to them to see if we need assessment teams or see what assistance we might need. from the federal government. >> mr. ashwood, thank you for your time. good luck today.

>> thank you very much. >> all right, george. the violent storms are not over yet. rob, you're tracking it all. >> i would love to say that the pattern has shifted. but the setup for severe weather remains the same. not only for today, but it increases for the next four days. a lot of jet stream energy. all the way back through denver, a chance for seeing large hail. less of a chance of tornadoes today. but tomorrow, we increase it again. back toward san angelo. maybe oklahoma city. then a punch of energy from a california storm. come saturday, a very likely risk of seeing severe weather. mother's day sunday, doesn't look to be better. serious weather. >> okay, rob. thank you very much. now to the bombshell nfl report on deflate-gate. the investigation finds that tom brady likely knew that patriots' staff tampered with the balls before the championship game. ryan smith with the latest. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: and good morning to

you, george. this report on deflate-gate that took league investigators 103 days to produce puts tom brady in its cross hairs. saying staffers wouldn't have touched the balls without brady's approval. and disputing brady's claim that is he knew nothing. this morning, new england patriots quarterback tom brady hit hard by the investigation into the now infamous deflate-gate scandal. the 243-page report released wednesday stating it is more probable than not that brady was at least generally aware of the inappropriate activities involving the release of air from patriots game balls. the report also says. two long-time patriots staffers, jim mcnally and equipment assistant john jastremski participated in a deliberate plan to circumvent the rules. at the championship game against the indianapolis colts. the report, likely a blow to the

credibility of the super bowl champion quarterback who claimed he did nothing wrong. >> is tom brady a cheater? >> i don't believe so. i feel like i have always played within the rules. i would never do anything to break the rules. >> reporter: three months before the scandal broke, according to the report, brady angrily complained about the inflation levels of the footballs. after an october game. prompting this text message. tom sucks. i'm going to make that next ball an expletive balloon. the report states that in the weeks that followed, a flurry of text messages went between the pair. including this one, seemingly alluding to brady's knowledge that the balls were being tampered with. talked to him last night. he actually brought you up and said you must have a lot of stress trying to get them done. according to the report, mcnally, referring to himself as the deflator, at one point, asking in jest for help to get brady to pay up.

if he wanted balls inflated the way he liked. let's make a deal. come on. help the deflator. brady himself refusing to turn over his texts and phone logs. this morning, the nfl says it's considering what steps to take in light of the report. patriots' owner robert kraft saying in a statement to say that we're disappointed in the report's findings, which do not include any incontrovertible or hard evidence of deflation, would be a gross understatement. brady is not commenting on the report. his dad says i have no doubt about my son's integrity. not one bit and adding quote this was frame-gate right from the beginning. robin. >> dan abrams is here with more on this. we'll have michael weigh in as well. what do you make of the language that was used? >> they're being very careful to say more likely than not. same standard you would use in a civil case, by the way. you hear the patriots saying incontrovertible evidence.

there's not proof beyond any doubt in the case. there's not proof beyond any doubt in courtrooms all the time. this is the evidence they have. we're talking about deflating footballs. not taking someone's freedom away and this is the standard that's appropriate. >> with tom brady, he did not release his text messages. he didn't have to. it's not a criminal investigation. >> that's right. he didn't. he's not going to. now he'll suffer whatever consequences they decide to inflict upon him as a result. there are three possibilities here. big fines. i think that's for certain. possible suspension of brady. that's possible. many people think that's unlikely. and number three, the possibility for the team of the loss of draft picks down the road. we'll have to see if they do that. think about this in the big context of it. compared to a criminal case. murder would be fixing a game. that would be the equivalent of murder. the spy scandal, the equivalent of voluntary manslaughter. this is probably battery. and assault. something a little bit lower

than that and so i think you'll see a slightly lesser punishment than in the spy thing. >> what do you think, michael? the draft just ended. it would have to be the next draft. if there was some sort of penalty. >> i agree with dan. i think more likely a big fine. i don't think the team will have a problem covering. they went on to win the super bowl. everyone said, does it make a difference? in those weather conditions, it does. the fact that they're not sure tom brady is involved. i guess it's guys of a lesser importance with that team, i don't know that you can take draft picks away. >> the investigation showed that robert kraft and the coach didn't have any idea what was going on. >> brady was mentioned 378 times. it's clear they were focused on brady throughout this and he was definitely mentioned in the text messages et cetera. >> gentlemen, thank you. new questions about the clinton foundation, as hillary ramps up her run for president.
