results could be catastrophic. u.p.s. stores like this one directly behind me would have a tough time prompt promiing deliveries. u.p.s. delivers every day in the united states 18.6 million packages. companies big and small rely on them to do their business. about 340,000 workers could walk out if this happens which would make this the largest strike against the single employer in u.s. history. u.p.s. is already talking about having managers and people who aren't covered by the contract driving trucks, but u.p.s. pilots, who are under a different agreement, already said they would respect this possible strike. the last time u.p.s. had a strike was in 1997. it lasted 15 days and the company lost hundreds of millions of dollars. experts say that if a strike happens next week and lasts even just ten days it could cost the u.s. economy more than $7 billion. we're hearing the issue is mostly about money. both the teamsters and u.p.s. agree their workers need a raise.

sources tell us though the question is over how much. robin? >> hopefully a resolution can be reached. all right, steve. thank you. linsey? the social media battle is heating up. tik tok has entered the chat. the popular video sharing app just debuted a new feature taking aim at twitter. elizabeth schulze has the latest on it all. >> reporter: good morning. this is part of a heated competition between social media companies trying to become a one stop shop for their users online. tik tok, the popular video app with 150 million users just in the u.s. is now launching this text feature. the company says it will allow creators to share their stories, poems, recipes and other written content. it sets up a showdown with other apps centered on tech posts, including the og twitter, which is now rebranded x in yet another major change by its owner, elon musk.

the other competitor is thread owned by instagram's parent company meta. more than 100 million users signed up for thread within five days of its launch this month, but early data shows that engagement on the app has dropped off since then. it's a sign that convincing users to download and try new apps is one big task, but keeping their attention online is another big challenge. guys? >> okay, thank you very much. coming up search for evidence in the long island serial killer case. what police found in the suspect's home. plus carlee russell comes clean. what the alabama woman is now saying about her abduction hoax. r&b star monica stopping her show to break up a fight between fans. she's telling us all about it. but first let's go back to ginger. ging? >> robin, we've got brand new information from the world weather attribution group. they're the ones that tell us how much human induced climate change amplified the natural warming of our planet. they say what's happening around the globe this july, virtually impossible without human climate change.

so let's dive into it. when we break records for consecutive heat, it's usually by a day or two and we're always kind of amazed by that. in el paso, we will easily double the record, meaning breaking it by weeks, if not more. that's what makes this different. all-time record heat in italy yesterday. those records go back to the 1700's. here's what they're saying. not only virtually impossible without human induced climate change, but also summers, for now, 10% more chance of having a summer like this because of human induced climate change. in europe 6.7% on a given summer or given july, that will see this in the desert southwest. also, just a quick look. another group that does this helps to see how many more 110 plus days we can expect with moderate emissions or high emissions. there's your numbers. that's the big picture. let's get your local weather.

yellowstone national park became a national park in 1975. there's only been eight people killed by grizzly bears there. so it's a very very rare situation. >> reporter: experts say to help avoid interactions with bears, one, avoid eye contact if you see one. travel in groups. don't hike around dawn or dusk when bears are often looking for food. and carry bear spray, which is different from pepper spray. make sure you know how to use that spray. >> i know you're going to be back in our next hour. we'll look for you then. coming up next, grammy winner monica jumping off stage to stop a fight between fans. she's telling us all about it. come on back. trying to control my asthma felt anything but normal. ♪ ♪ enough was enough. i talked to an asthma specialist and found out my severe asthma is driven by eosinophils, a type of asthma nucala can help control.
