rob, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, good morning, janai. the past 18 hours in northeast texas has just been horrific. the roar of the tornadoes interrupted by these beeps. the piping, insulation all gone but a lot of this brick uilt ou brick. everyone went without serious injury and most of the street is nearly completely flattened in this devastating round of november twisters. overnight, a severe weather outbreak striking the south central u.s. 18 tornadoes ripping through 3 states. one person died in oklahoma, but texas getting the worst of it. about an hour east of dallas, this tornado tearing through the town of sulfur springs uprooting tree, debate flying everywhere, crushing cars. this funnel touching down near

paris, texas, injuring several people there. >> i have one person missing in a house right now, and i've got multiple victims out here. >> completely destroyed my house on 3200. >> reporter: k9 search and rescue crews searching the rubble. in nearby powderly, texas, pamela and kaitlin surveying their former home. the storm flipped their home and moved it 50 yards away from its foundation. >> it's where we grew up, so it's like -- it's sad. like that was our home, and that was like a forever home, and now it's not. >> reporter: the same weather system causing a disastrous pileup in denver, colorado. caught on camera moments after this driver crashed into a pile of cars on a freeway. this terrifying video shows when two other vehicles lose control and slam into the driver's truck. >> it's all one big sheet of black ice. you couldn't see it. >> reporter: there's a cold side to the system. we're certainly feeling that this morning. most of the victims that we spoke to last night said they're staying now with friends

and family but will be back to pick through what's left of their homes as this system continues to push east. guys. >> all right, rob. thank you so much. let's turn now and get a check of the weather from danielle breezy from our nashville station wkrn for more on the forecast. good morning, danielle. >> reporter: good morning, janai. we are tracking that extensive line of storms. i want to show you this, it extends from chicago all the way down to the gulf coast coming to nashville too. there were 18 tornado reports yesterday. the good news is it's weakening as it pushes east. gusty winds though will be along the line of storms. now, behind it as you're waking up and cleaning up, temperatures are in the 40s. there's even some snow over in kansas. but out ahead of it it's all about the warmth. record warmth will be up and down the east coast. we're going to talk more about that coming up, eva. >> thanks, danielle. now to the midterm elections just three days away. here in pennsylvania, voters this weekend are experiencing pitches from three u.s. presidents. abc's maryalice parks is here with us with more. it's good to see you in person this morning.

>> good to see you too. eva, good morning. it is really the final sprint. already across the country more than 37 million americans have voted, and so much attention here in pennsylvania. this one state could completely decide control of the senate, and that's why the biggest names in politics are all here today. with just three days to go, the battle for the senate a dead heat. across the country polls show several senate races could be incredibly close. from wisconsin where democrats are trying to oust a sitting republican senator. >> we're talking about hard earned, hard fought rights and freedoms that are on the chopping block right now. >> reporter: to multiple states like washington, nevada and arizona where republicans are now gaining ground and looking to beat incumbent democrats. >> we need a red wave badly. >> reporter: and here in pennsylvania, both parties all in. president biden, former president obama and former president trump all headed to this crucial battleground state this weekend to campaign.

overnight biden telling reporters he's feeling optimistic democrats will pick up seats in the senate. >> we're going to win this time around, i think. i feel really good about our chances. >> reporter: the open senate race here in pennsylvania between democratic lieutenant governor john fetterman and republican dr. mehmet oz a total toss-up. >> i really dedicated my career to help young people get their geds, to run for mayor of the community, to fight against gun violence and to try to create economic development. >> reporter: fetterman making his closing argument saying his experience suffering a massive stroke this year has made him more empathetic. >> to stand up for anyone who ever got knocked down that has to get back up. >> reporter: and fetterman getting a boost from oprah who famously introduced the country to dr. oz. >> if i lived in pennsylvania, i would have already cast my vote for john fetterman. >> reporter: on the trail oz making his case. >> the land of plenty can be ours if we don't overregulate and overtax ourselves. i believe that we can have a budget that works and doesn't recklessly spend our children's money.

>> reporter: now, republicans these last few days definitely have more spring in their step, but democrats tell me that they feel good about early voting numbers and that they're planning to win this in the key states block by block, city by city turning out their voters. eva. >> yeah, it is very close in a lot of these states. here in pennsylvania, you can feel you are in a battleground for this midterm election. the billboards, the ads, even the text messages bombarding voters that we're hearing from, so many of them, and as maryalice mentioned both sides are going to be bringing in the big guns. both of these candidates really trying to drive home their final messages, fetterman saying how you heard in maryalice's piece his experience with a stroke will make him a stronger, more empathetic senator, meanwhile, dr. oz drilling down on what he says are the key issues of this election, the economy and crime. on the ground here we are hearing from voters that this election is really about the issues for them.

those issues, the things that directly impact their families and day-to-day life weighing on their minds as they decide who gets their vote, the economy, crime, abortion, education all coming up in my conversations. with these voters, many telling me they don't see either fetterman or oz as perfectly aligned with their values or stances on the issues, and at this point they are trying to have to determine what they think matters most to them right now. now, almost everyone i've talked to telling me they are exhausted from partisan politics, and it's a similar story across the country that we're seeing heading into this election day. the issues top of mind for most voters are the economy and inflation. abortion another top issue, and, of course, some saying crime or education are front and center in their minds as we head into this final stretch. we turn now to the individual races across the country getting closer as election day draws near.

abc's congressional correspondent rachel scott is there in new york and joins us now from the big board. rachel, we are seeing many of these races like the one here in pennsylvania. they're in an absolute dead heat. >> absolute dead heat, eva. you and maryalice have laid out the stakes, now let's take a look at the numbers. starting in pennsylvania right where you are, let's take a look at where this race stood just a few weeks ago at the start of october. you can see the democrat, john fetterman, he was in the lead. look at where it is now, a dead heat between john fetterman and the republican doctor mehmet oz, i's not just in pennsylvania, let's take a look at where things stand also in the state of georgia. right now we're seeing a dead heat between the democratic incumbent senator raphael warnock and the republican herschel walker, another state where we're seeing 46 for the democrat, 46 for the republican. any one of these races could decide control of the senate. and the story of the night on election day is going to be one in five.

republicans only need to flip one seat in order to take the senate. they need to flip five to take the house. >> the margins are so close. we know that this midterm election will be incredibly consequential, and many of the house districts have changed. >> every ten years they are redrawn through a process known as redistricting. it seems a little complicated but we're going to break it down for you by showing the impact of it in a state like florida. i'm going to circle for you an area that i want you to keep your eyes on here, that stretches from tallahassee all the way to jacksonville. i'm going to show you what this district looked like in 2020. you see that blue running across the state. democratic voters, largely black area. weel, republicans in the state review the congressional maps, and take a look at what happened. it no doubt turned more conservative, more red and gives republicans more of an edge. the important thing to note is that this is happening all across the country. so in some states like illinois it will benefit democrats.

it's adding another layer to what already sets a consequential midterm election, whit. >>rachel, i'll take it from here. thank you so much. be sure to tune in for our election night coverage. whit, eva, maryalice, rachel and i will be joining david muir and the entire political team on tuesday right here at abc starting at 8:00 p.m. eastern. whit. and, janai, as former president trump hits the campaign trail for republicans, he's teasing another run of his own for the white house. abc news deputy political director averi harper is joining us now this morning. good morning to you. great to see you in person. >> good morning. >> what more are we learning of the potential timing of this announcement? >> whit, sources are telling abc news the former president is leaning toward announcing a third presidential bid and that that announcement could come as soon as november 14th. now, trump has floated the notion of a potential presidential run for months now, some of his aides are suggesting that the former president believes that one could shield him from the numerous

investigations that he's tied to, but it's important to note many experts say that a run would not give him any additional legal protection. >> we're certainly hearing him drop hints telling supporters in iowa, get ready. something could be coming very soon, but what about the significance and the timing of this potentially right after the midterms? >> right, well, it depends on what happens on tuesday. it could be an opportunity for the former president to take a victory lap. he hand selected many of the republicans who are on the ballot across the country. on the flip side, for voters who are anti-trump, this news could be a motivating factor to get them out to vote for democrats. >> all right, averi harper, thank you so much. we always appreciate it. >> thank you. >> janai, over to you. nd we move into the final sprint to election day, we have the latest read on the economy. the final jobs report ahead of the midterms shows the country added 261,000 jobs last month. that's more than economists expected. abc's economics correspondent deidre bolton is here to break it all down this morning. deidre, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, janai.

the good news about this report, the job market is resilient. the industries that added the most jobs in october, health care, professional and technical services and leisure and hospitality. the less good news, the job market strength likely to keep the fed raising rates and for a longer period of time. higher interest rates makes all borrowing more expensive. mortgages, car loans, business loans, higher rates make cedit card payments more expensive as well. two big tech companies announcing a pause in hiring this week including amazon saying hiring is on hold in its corporate workforce. apple also saying it is halting new hires except for research and development. going forward the question is whether these companies' hiring freezes will be enough to help lower inflation. the fed has clearly stated until inflation is under control, rates are likely to stay elevated. back to you. >> deidre, thank you. we move now to breaking news this morning. north korea launching four new missile tests, an apparent angry response to joint exercises between the u.s. and south korea. abc's marcus moore is in seoul this morning with more

on what we're learning. marcus, good morning to you. >> reporter: whit, good morning. yeah, this is just the latest round of missiles fired by north korea as the country responds to those military drills between the u.s. and south korea. the four missiles, the short-range ballistic missiles fired overnight, and according to south korean defense officials, those rockets landed in the west sea. of course, news of this test spread very quickly. the u.s. and south korea concluding their joint military drills just today, and overnight defense officials releasing images of b1 bombers, f-35s and f-16s all participating in those drills. they, of course, want kim jong-un to see these images and perhaps be deterred from any further missile or nuclear warhead tests, and the u.s., of course, is not only watching north korea's moves here on the korean peninsula, but also on the war in ukraine. the u.s. has accused north korea of sending weapons to russia in

that fight, and as tensions continue to rise here on the korean peninsula, the u.s. defense secretary said recently that if north korea were to fire a nuclear weapon at the u.s. or any of its allies, it would mark the end of kim jong-un's regime. janai. >> all right, marcus, thank you so much. back here at home now to that triple virus threat. covid, of course, still with us in addition to the surging numbers of respiratory illness and the flu. the cdc saying flu hospitalizations are at the highest rate this early in the season since they started keeping track 12 years ago. abc's phil lipof is here with more. phil, good morning to you. a concerning sign. >> reporter: concerning, indeed, especially for parents, good morning, janai. with covid, the flu, respiratory illnesses like rsv, as you point out, all out here at the same time. pediatric hospital wards are seeing many more children than they usually do at this time of the year. that's why this morning the cdc is reupping an important recommendation.

this morning, health officials say hospitalizations and deaths from the flu have doubled in just the last week. this week alone more than 4,000 patients admitted to hospitals with an estimated 13,000 flu hospitalizations so far this season. experts say lack of vaccination may be a contributing factor. >> we aren't seeing the level of uptick of the flu shot that we would like to see. unfortunately, the reduced numbers of those being vaccinated is directly contributing to the surge that we're seeing. >> reporter: the cdc again stressing children younger than 9 who are receiving the influenza vaccine for the first time should get two doses four weeks apart. >> getting that protection for flu ultimately will mean that they'll be protected. the community will be protected and will save our hospitals from becoming over capacity. >> reporter: with the triple threat, the flu, covid and rsv, many pediatric units are filling up fast. >> one minute my son was bouncing off the walls doing all

the things a typical 2-year-old does, and the next minute he was in the hospital, and he needed oxygen and an iv. >> reporter: 2-year-old ethan spending three nights in the hospital. >> this was by far the scariest experience i have ever had. >> reporter: doctors telling her if ethan got worse, he would have to be transferred to another hospital. many already at or near pediatric capacity. >> we're incredibly grateful that we were able to get him the care he needed. >> reporter: a monoclonal antibody injection to prevent newborns against severe illness from rsv has just been approved in europe. the drugmaker hoping to get similar approval in the u.s. next fall. eva. >> phil lipof for us. here in philly, the philadelphia faithful are hoping for wins against houston when it comes to baseball and football but when it comes to giving back, philly fans embrace their houston brothers and sisters this week.

they all gathered at the houston food bank on friday to volunteer and pack boxes of food and raise money to fight hunger. good to see everyone getting along. time now for a check of our weather, and let's send it to danielle breezy from our nashville station. danielle, i'm going to tell you, this nice weather that we're experiencing right now, it feels like a gift. >> reporter: it is very warm where you are at in philadelphia. i can tell thaw much. up and down the east coast it is going to be warm, but i want to show you this video too, eva, real quick, if i can. this is from wisconsin. that is hail that fell from the severe weather yesterday. that area under high wind warnings and wind advisories that stretches all the way down into nashville, tennessee, and then as you look to the pacific northwest, there's also wind alerts along that area, so we are watching for wind gusts up to 50 miles an hour. and then, of course, out ahead of the line we are seeing that record warmth up and down the east coast,

>> reporter: and while temperatures are nice in the 70s, new york city, there's a marathon going on this weekend. that is going to be very warm, but they're taking extra precautions for all the runners. good luck to all the runners out there. i did one of those. it's hard. >> deal with the cold and rain, they'll take that. danielle, thank you so much. we appreciate it. we turn now to the $1.6 billion dream that's billion with a capital "b." the people who run the powerball lottery say tonight's jackpot is the biggest ever anywhere, and people are scrambling for a chance to win. abc's morgan norwood has more.

>> one of them's got to be it, right? >> reporter: this mo powerball pandemonium. in just hours, one of us could become a billionaire. a whopping $1.6 billion jackpot now up for grabs. >> it's the largest lottery jackpot prize anywhere in the world ever. >> reporter: you can play powerball in 45 states. hawaii, alaska, alabama, utah and nevada don't participate in the powerball drawing. but, listen, there's no jackpot jealousy here in the silver state. hundreds lining up to get their tickets at the lotto store in prim, along the california/nevada border. the line snaking around the building. for many people coming from las vegas, this is the closest place to go for powerball tickets. you know, the drive is relatively short. about 40, 45 minutes, but the wait, on the other hand, that's a different story. >> like 2 1/2 hours. >> 2 1/2 hours? >> yes.

>> feeling lucky today? >> absolutely. i feel lucky every day i wake up, you know. >> reporter: the cash option for this jackpot is $782.4 million, but after taxes, you'll walk away with roughly 450 million. that's if you beat the odds of nearly 1 in 300 million. but say no one takes home the top prize tonight after what would then be 40 consecutive drawings. >> the jackpot will certainly grow. it will grow to at least $1.9 billion for monday night. >> reporter: so if you're looking to share the wealth, perhaps you're pooling with friends or co-workers, experts say, make sure you have a written contract, janai. >> all right. thanks, morgan. we'll be right back here on "gma."

back now on "gma" with a very busy day in college football. lots of great match-ups, and "college gameday's" david

pollack is in athens, georgia, with a preview. david, hello to you. thanks for joining us. what is the atmosphere like in athens this morning for "gameday"? [ cheers and applause ] >> well, i think you can hear it. as soon as you said something, they started to get crazy so this is -- it's one versus three. a couple of the best teams in the country so far. these fans obviously being a 3:30 game, they're already getting their prewarm-up on, getting hydrated and getting ready to rock 'n' roll. so it'll be nuts. >> they're a little hydrated with something at 7:45 in the morning. okay, let's get to the match-up between number one, tennessee, number three georgia. which team has the advantage? >> well, when you have seen tennessee this season, their resume so far they beat lsu and the big, bad alabama. their offense has been unbelievable when you see how fast they are, how quick they play. they throw the ball all over the yard so tennessee from a resume standpoint has proven and georgia, they star season, you know, beating up on

oregon, who is now a top ten team, and continue to grow and get better with a younger team and a lot of draft picks but this game is at home in the s.e.c. at home, a huge advantage. >> i come from an s.e.c. school. i know a little something about it and all the boos when you said alabama, they're playing today, another huge game. number six, alabama, number ten, lsu at 7:00 eastern tonight on espn. alabama are the favorites in this one. what does lsu need to do if they're going to upset 'bama at home? >> lsu is going to have to score and score a lot. jayden daniels has really kicked it in gear and their offense compared to with where they started the season, and they have a dynamic playmaker at the quarterback spot. they will have to score over 30 point, probably over 40 points because this alabama offense will score and score in bunches so i think alabama has a lot to prove. throughout the rest of the season, they're at number six in the first rankings which is not high for them.

not expectations for them, and i expect them to play really well today in death valley. >> david, you watch a lot of games. what are you most looking forward to seeing today? >> i mean, there's two match-ups that decide the playoff today. that's what's crazy, to have one this early in the season, georgia playing tennessee is by far the game we're looking at because think about the scenarios that occur. if georgia beats tennessee, now tennessee beats alabama, georgia beats tennessee, georgia will play alabama probably in the s.e.c. championship game. you're looking at three teams, you know, still being alive in the s.e.c., so i think playoff contention, if alabama holds serve and georgia wins today, it'll be a hot mess, which is a lot of fun for us. >> good old hot mess. thank you so much, david. tune in to "college gameday" on espn with guest picker luke bryan who has already selected the bulldogs supporting his home state of georgia. >> i think they were even booing you when you said alabama, the crowd. take it easy on our friend janai. we'll have more after this.
