7:02 am
people. i didn't know what to expect. i think when you hear what she was thinking leading up to the royal wedding, i think you'll find it very fascinating. >> interesting to hear from her. not every day you can say you have a world exclusive, but you actually do. and remember last week we talked to miss delaware. she was so upset her crown was taken away because of a paperwork issue. she cried when she talked to us. she's going to be here today to tell us what is happening with the case. and there's also talk of perhaps suing the miss america organization. so we will get to that in about an hour or so. let's get right to today's top story. the key ruling expected from the supreme court. the high court will hand down the final decisions of its term and it includes this case of contraception, religion, and the obama health care law. pete williams is with us this morning. >> reporter: dramatic end to the
7:03 am
term. any minute now a decision into the obamacare case. can a corporation, a profit making business, claim it has religious freedom which would make it exempt from having to abide by some laws? the challenges to the health care law come from a pennsylvania company owned by a family of mennonite christians. and the hobby lobby, a chain of craft stores founded on christian beliefs. >> we believe wholeheartedly it is by god's grace and provision that hobby lobby has been successful. >> reporter: both companies say providing insurance coverage for some kinds of contraceptions are equivalent of paying for abortion, violating their religious views. but does a corporation have religious beliefs? the companies say yes. >> just because you're engaged in business and trying to make profit doesn't mean you leave all your religious beliefs at the door. >> reporter: but the obama administration says freedom of religion is the right of individuals and not corporations
7:04 am
which are set up to be legally separate from the people who run them and the government says half of all pregnancies are unintended making coverage for birth control essential for preventive care. if the companies win what other laws would they seek exceptions for? >> this case is basically whether an employer because of their own personal views can pick and choose which laws they want to adhere to and which they don't. >> reporter: one option is a narrow ruling allowing the religious exception only for family-owned companies with clearly established religious views. >> i know there's another big legal development to talk about over the weekend. khatallah appeared in court this weekend. the first suspect to be charged in this country in text with benghazi. >> reporter: yes. khattala spoke only two words in court and listened to the proceedings through an interpreter on an earphone. his lawyer entered a plea of not guilty. he'll be back on wednesday to
7:05 am
find if he must be held in jail until his trial. no trial date has yet been set and so far the government has revealed virtually nothing about the evidence against him. >> all right, pete. we'll keep watching it. thank you very much. let's turn now to the oscar pistorius murder trial. back in session this morning after delays so that pistorius could undergo a psychiatric evaluation. "today" national investigative correspondent jeff rossen is in south africa. >> reporter: hey, matt. the final phase of court in session this morning. we now have the results of oscar pistorius' psychological evaluation. the panel of doctors all agree he did not have any mental illness when he shot and killed his girlfriend, reeva steenkamp. these findings could be a big blow to his defense. this is our first look at oscar pistorius in weeks. he's been away at a mental
7:06 am
hospital where a team of psychiatrists evaluated him every day for a month. in court today the prosecutor read the results. >> mr. pistorius did not suffer from a mental illness at the time of the commission of the offense that would have rendered him criminally not responsible for the charges. >> reporter: before today the defense team claimed he had a mental illness called general anxiety disorder when he shot and killed his model girlfriend, reeva steenkamp. pistorius sat in court today yawning at times, looking upset at other times as he listened to the results that he knew right from wrong. >> mr. pistorius was capable of appreciating the wrongfulness of the act. >> reporter: what does this result mean? >> it basically means the criminal trial is back on track now. if oscar is convicted at the end of the trial he could face a jail sentence. >> reporter: instead of going to a mental hospital?
7:07 am
>> yes. >> reporter: the defense tried to brush it off highlighting pistorius' physical disability, losing his legs as a baby. his orthopedic surgeon testifies today pistorius was more vulnerable than the rest of us when he feared an intruder and shot reeva. >> on his stumps he is seriously vulnerable in a dangerous situation with a severely impaired ability to flee, severely impaired ability to ward off danger without a weapon, and in danger of falling should he put the stump down incorrectly. >> reporter: at one point today, pistorius took off his prosthetic legs in court to show the judge how hard it is for him to walk around. the judge ordered the cameras to turn away. quick note about the timeline in the trial. the court is hoping to have the entire case wrapped up in the next few weeks. we shall see. >> jeff rossen in south africa for us.
7:08 am
thanks very much. another piece of breaking news. an emergency landing for american airlines flight after an emergency escape slide opened while the flight was in the air. >> reporter: hi, savannah. this was the united 737 flight 1463 that left chicago at 8:20 local time. suddenly while in flight the emergency slide opened near the rear of the cabin. the plane was at cruising altitude at the time. it really caught passengers and flight attendants by surprise. you can see by the photos the slide consumed much of the section of the plane. you can't fly across country like that. the pilot declared an emergency and landed in wichita without incident. >> and the first thought i had is i hope no one's in the restroom. fortunately no one was in the restroom. it just filled the area up. >> reporter: not a lot of room
7:09 am
at all. 96 passengers, crew of five on board. no one was injured. and the crew was never in danger, neither was the passenger. united sent a replacement plane in to ferry the passengers on. and a maintenance team looking into why this happened. this kind of an event is rare, but it has happened before. you may recall when president obama was running for office back in 2008, a slide opened on his campaign plane. the ntsb determined it had not been properly secured before takeoff. >> what a scare for those passengers. thank you very much. some severe weather to talk about. it's on the move this morning after tearing through the midwest over the weekend. several reported tornadoes touching down leaving a lot of damage behind. dylan dreyer is in for al this morning. where's the storm headed? >> still in the midwest. i mean, the midwest cannot catch a break. we've had flooding rains along with the tornadoes and the damaging wind gusts and large hail. look at some of the flooding we saw in memphis, tennessee.
7:10 am
cars completely inundated with water. this mobile home where families were evacuated. it takes awhile for the water to recede. you can see the water flowing through the streets, areas where you do not want to see that much water. and unfortunately we are going to see more severe storms break out later on today. we've got this cool, dry air to the north and west. but we also have a lot of moisture coming in from the south. dew points are around 70 to 75 degrees. that's making the atmosphere unstable. we already have severe thunderstorm warnings in effect. we will see perhaps another outbreak of storms. from texas up to michigan. that's our wide area where you could see it today. from des moines over to peoria in illinois could have damaging wind gusts and large hail. we're looking at the threat tomorrow as well. it is relentless out that way. guys? >> thanks very much. tamron's in for natalie. we've got new leadership potentially at the v.a. >> president obama is expected to announce his nominee for
7:11 am
secretary of veterans affairs. his choice is bob mcdonald. the former ceo for proctor & gamble. mcdonald will replace general eric shinseki who resigned in the wake of a scandal. peter alexander is at the white house for us this morning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. president obama's going to make that announcement this afternoon at the v.a. bob mcdonald will become the first fortune 500 ceo to run the agency. mcdonald's management experience is unparalleled. with the veterans affairs department crippled by a corrosive culture, today the obama administration will nominate bob macdonald to run the company. he would take over the department serving more than 8 million veterans a year. white house aides point to his
7:12 am
stellar managerial record. and customer service experience. it's an unorthodoxed pick to replace eric shinseki. he has a strong military backup himself. house speaker john boehner was co complimentary. but it lies on president obama to articulate a vision for sweeping reform. and amongst his first challenges if confirmed, looking at those returning from the wars in iraq and afghanistan. the head of the group representing iraq and afghanistan veterans says that macdonald never served in iraq or afghanistan, was not from their generation. adding he's going to have to work hard to get up to speed on our issues. >> peter, thank you very much. the iraqi government says the military has made
7:13 am
significant gains in the country's north as the battle for the city of tikrit rages on. iraqi officials say i.s.i.s. commanders started fleeing the area. they sate militants were still in the streets. i.s.i.s. has claimed a new islamist state. a move that some experts say could cause in-fighting with other militant groups. president obama will ask congress for $2 billion to deal with the sudden surge of unaccompanied children crossing the border. he's also having for more -- asking for more authority in sending border crossers back to their home country. the president also wants stricter penalties for so-called coyotes who smuggle children across the border for cash. and dozens of thrill seekers are happy to be on hard ground this morning after being stuck
7:14 am
on a ride at sea world for hours. 46 visitors and 2 employees were in that sky tower when a power failure halted the revolving capsule and left everyone 320 feet in the air. after four hours power was finally restored. the ride slowly descended after four hours. no passengers were ever in danger. >> are there restrooms in that thing? >> thank you for saying what i was thinking. >> four hours. twice i would have needed to go. well, this may give you interesting thoughts as well this morning. major league baseball players holding their teammates' feet to the fire. the dodgers had a comfortable lead against the st. louis cards on sunday and decided to have some quote, unquote fun. someone stuck rolled up matches to the back of a shoe. and then adrian gonzalez lit on fire. he smelled the smoke and look around for hours until he

7:16 am
7:16, happy monday to you. we're starting out comfortably. it's going to be hot out thereto later on today. return of the triple digits and the reason why is because we have very little low cloud cover. with that marine influence sported for today, we're only going to see temperatures in the triple digits in the hot spots. and i can tell you right now, even in san francisco keeping those numbers in the 7:for today. 90s on the peninsula. 94 in the south bay. when the heat will break in moments. >> and that is your local forecast. >> thank you so much. now to the world cup and the excitement over the knockout stage so far. there have been some nail biters, a lot of breath holding, some praying. these are just the last few days of matches and the usa hasn't had its chance yet. tomorrow we get our chance. belgium or bust.
7:17 am
natalie has been in brazil posting great pictures on facebook of her assignment. how's it going? >> reporter: i've been having a little fun here as well as covering what is truly an extraordinary event. the atmosphere along copacabana beach is electric with each game and goal scored here, the crowd, the fans go wild. as you mentioned tomorrow it's the u.s.'s turn and it's a must win. all eyes glued to the action at copacabana beach. it's about national pride here. mexico seemed all but sure to win but with minutes to go the netherlands tied it up and were awarded a game-winning penalty kick in the 94th minute. host country brazil had its own close call. it went to penalty kick and chile was sent home.

7:19 am
and clint dempsey lost his sister at the age of 16. for the 2006 world cup, he dedicated a hip hop song to his sister's memory in a nike ad. those hardships making them stronger, no doubt, as they face yet another fierce opponent. if the u.s. beats belgium tomorrow, they would move on to the quarter finals and play either argentina or switzerland. the last time the u.s. men got that far was back in 2002. a lot of people believing this is the team to get that far. >> all right, natalie. >> keep it up. have fun. anybody see that netherlands game yesterday? had a lot of dutch in my house. they were happy with the outcome but not about the way it happened. they didn't think that was a real penalty at the end. first 88 minutes you could hear crickets in my house.

talked about the royal wedding, the moment she realized her life would change, and we also talked about the charities near and dear to her heart. and she recently brought attention to them taking part in a bike ride across this country. she's easily one of the most recognizable women in the world, but she had never done a television interview until now. i had to kind of do a double take when i was reading this. this is the first time you've ever done a television interview. >> yes. >> why? >> i don't know. i had this nervousness of being in front of the camera. >> it's funny you say that yet you've become one of the most recognizable faces in the world based on what's happened over the past couple years. has it been hard for you? >> it has been difficult. i went from a normal life to sort of managing everything that happened after the wedding. >> in a heartbeat. it wasn't just any wedding. it was the wedding of the century.
7:42 am
the royal marriage of kate middleton to prince william, the future king of england. the bride was radiant, the groom beaming. there were magical moments galore, but the surprise of the day belonged to another in the wedding we hadn't seen before. soon everyone wanted to know who was this beautiful woman in the flattering dress. it was the best of the british pomp and circumstance. what was it like to be in it? >> it's funny to say, but we thought of it just as a family wedding. and actually i didn't realize the scale of it until afterwards. and i had to make sure i helped my sister where i should, look after the bridesmaids. but we saw it as a family getting together and doing their best like any. >> people are going to find that extraordinary that you viewed it just as a family wedding. it didn't feel that way in the buildup. >> no.
7:43 am
we saw a lot of people but maybe i didn't see any tv cameras. to me it was just in front of a lot of people, not necessarily the whole world. >> i remember that shot where you came out on the balcony. what was it like to look out at that sea of humanity? >> it was surreal. you don't know if you're living it to yourself in that moment. >> was that a moment, though, where the reality of the enormous nature of it gets to you? >> yeah. we saw crowds rushing around the balcony. i thought, wow, this is pretty special. >> but it didn't take long after the wedding and after kate and william drove away in that beautiful aston martin. do you have the keys to that, by the way? it wasn't long until people started talking about you. and for lack of a better way to explain it, the way your dress fit. how did you feel about that? >> it was completely unexpected.
7:44 am

i'm trying to live a life like any 30-year-old. >> it's interesting you use the word bullied. i think it's a very apt term. a lot of young people, younger than you even look at social media and feel the same thing when they see the negative comments. >> people fear they can say something about you online or on a web page when they would never say it to your face. they think that's okay. >> anonymity is a very powerful thing. >> i just keep bouncing back and try to not let it affect you. it's hard. just try and be yourself and not read too much. and make decisions based on what i feel is right and wrong. >> in addition to her charity work, another one of her decisions to carry on has included becoming a writer. she's written columns for magazines like "vanity fair" as well as published her first book on party planning called "celebrate."

8:23 am
of this type may have on these women and each of these state organizations. and the great concern that goes with it. as for longacre, although her crown is gone she'll be able to keep the $9,000 in scholarship awards. and by the way, the runner-up and new miss delaware will also receive that $9,000 scholarship. savannah? >> thanks. let's check in with amanda longacre and her attorney. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> i have to say, you broke our hearts. we can see how hard this has hit you. how much of an outpouring have you heard? this is since last weekend. how much support have you received? >> i've gotten a lot of support. i'm so appreciative of it because i feel so much love especially from my state and people outside of my state of people supporting me. i've been nothing since honest since the beginning. they don't think it's right either. >> as you well know, pageant officials have said, okay, we recognize there was a messup
8:24 am
here, amanda can keep her scholarship money. is that good enough? >> i won the title of miss delaware. i am miss delaware. i was nothing but honest from the beginning. i did not know that rule. i did not know that rule at all. and they reiterated to me since the beginning i was eligible to compete. i asked from the beginning am i eligible? they said yes. they signed off on my contract. they had my birth certificate. i gave them everything. >> would you at this point be willing to take that scholarship money and put it behind you or you want to fight? >> this is about the title of miss delaware that i rightfully won. i want to represent the people of delaware. i want to be a social worker. this was a great start to a fabulous career. it still is going to be a fabulous career for me. >> let me turn to your lawyer here. first of all we've reached out to the miss america organization. we haven't heard back yet. it sounds like this is potentially a lawsuit. is that what you're thinking? >> we wanted to see amanda serve
8:25 am
as miss delaware. in our mind that's what's fair. if we have to sue to do it, we will. our goal really here is that she be allowed to enjoy the title she's earned. >> amanda, i read there was a form you signed in may that did have the date constraints on it. was that something you just didn't see or didn't understand or -- >> i didn't know the rule. and i also competed at the local level as well. it's been several months. i don't know how -- you put your trust into an organization to know their rules. so when you come forward and you're honest and you ask them am i eligible to compete and you put the time and money in and this is something you really want to do and they tell you, you can't compete anymore. >> you're still hoping to go to the miss america pageant? >> yes, i am. >> thank you so much. good to have you here as well. coming up, actor and heart

he needs our help deciding what to perform. cast your vote for "thinking out loud," "a-team," or "lego house." cast your vote. >> vote early and often. let's get a check of the weather. it is getting muggier here in new york city. back through the southeast and the south we have hotter temperatures. well into the 90s. even up into the triple digits across the western plains. humid too. brace yourself today. we are looking at a slight risk of strong storms from texas to michigan. but our next chance of our most severe weather today will be through iowa and into northern illinois and missouri. and tonight for some strong storms. tomorrow that slight risk spren spreads further to the east. we could still see the hail, damaging wind gusts and everything that goes with that area. it is going to stay sizzling in the south. and i've been hearing a lot on
8:33 am
twitter we've got the bayu babes. 8:33, good monday morning to you. i'm meteorologist christina loren. let's get the hottest day of the week out of the way. today we're going to see the triple digits but after that temperatures steadily drop off. this is the one and only day that we're forecasting that century mark out in the extreme east bay. we'll hit 94 in the east bay. 92 is a hot day along the peninsula. 98 in the north bay and the place to be, in you can get out there, the coast, 72 in san francisco. and that is your latest forecast. >> thank you much. actor pierce brosnan probably best known as james bond. but in his few film "a long way
8:34 am
down," he's taking on a much more vulnerable role. he plays martin sharp, a former morning show host whose career and marriage tanked after a notorious scandal. >> being famous is great. everything thinks it's difficult, but it's not. you get to have the best seats in restaurants. people smile at you on planes. it's great. and whatever you do, you feel vindicated by your own fame. and you never, ever feel humiliated. >> ever, ever. pierce brosnan, good to have you here. >> good morning, matt. >> did you study news kacastersr this role? >> i did. there are a few in england that i love from the '70s. but this is is a story by nick horneby. he wrote this wonderful story about these four kind of fractures characters who meet on
8:35 am
a certain night to commit suicide to take their lives. >> i want to say off the bat that while you talk about that and people think, oh, gosh, what a downer. it's not at all. as a matter of fact, if you put the suicide aside, it's really more a movie about humanity. >> it is a humanity movie. it has lots of laughs. and it's about the resilience of these people's lives. these people shape each other's destinies, in some respects. it's not a downer of a movie. it's an uplifting movie about hope and friendship and community. you know, toni colette, and all these magnificent actors. >> these four people you talk about who come together on the rooftop and they're there not to take the elevator or stairs down, they're there to jump off that building. diverse group. >> yeah. martin sharp is this sort of
8:36 am
narcissistic self-indulgent man whose career has fallen apart. >> can we talk about the scandal? >> yeah. he has sex with an underaged young woman. she looked 26. and his life just falls apart. >> loses his marriage. loses his career. >> loses his children. everything. and so complete ll lly fracture. his vulnerability is shattered. and he decides to climb up and throw himself off and in doing so is saved by the character of toni colette. her life is in disarray. she sees no way out. and so the story unfolds on this roof. >> they end up saving each other. we know you and we love you for these roles that we became accustomed to where you're so suave. but you have made some really
8:37 am
interesting choices since that time period. what drives you these days? what makes you take a role? >> well, i love to work. i want to work. i have to work. i have children. but more importantly i enjoy what i do. i've been an actor all my life. and the james bond role was a wonderful steppingstone onto an international stage. so with that i formed my own company to make my own films. but what drives me is the work. it's to work with someone like toni colette, be part of an ensemble. >> is longevity as much fun these days as the white hot spotlight was back in the days of bond and remington steel? >> it's all about longevity. i mean, you want to stay at the table for as long as you can. you want to have a career that's far reaching and hopefully at the end of the day you have maybe three, four jewels in your hand that you can say i owned
8:38 am
that, i did that, and it's mine. but i love acting. i love making movies. it's exhilarating. i'm lucky and just nothing but gratitude that i'm still doing it. >> i was going to say we're lucky. hope you keep doing it for a very long time. always good to see you. >> thanks so much. >> thank you very much. and "a long way down" hits theaters on july 11th. coming up, we're going to look back at the '90s. were they the last great decade? but if you ever say these words, did i put my -- stay tuned. mario will find us ways to find things you lose on a daily

8:49 am
we tried to get our [ bleep ] together. >> the only problem with the '90s is it didn't last long enough. >> reporter: the special airing next week examines the decade that introduced us to things like viagra, reality tv, and jerry springer. >> jerry! jerry! >> we decided we'll have young people in the audience and young subject matter. young people are much more open about their lives, much crazier, wilder. and so the show started to go crazy. >> reporter: but the drama wasn't just limited to springer's studio. >> why! why! >> you know, you can ask the question why did it happen, but i ask the question why did it happen. >> reporter: but real wars were also waged when our troops fought in iraq for the first time. an unprecedented front row seat to the battle. meanwhile, images that once seemed unimaginable in our borders became a sad and tragic reality. and the subject of race in

8:59 am
9:00 am
from nbc news, this is "today's take" with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist, and tamron hall. live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> and welcome to "today" on a monday morning. it's june 30th, 2014. big crd outside on the plaza on a hot day here in the summer of new york city. i'm willie geist along with tamron hall and one of our summer interns. want to give you a big break this morning. >> i'm feeling like the old guy. do you always play it that loud in the studio or because i'm old? >> we go straight rave at 9:00 a.m. >> how was your weekend? >> good. hanging out with the kids and family.
9:01 am
can i be the 10,000th person to say i love your hair. >> you do? >> looks great. >> but you're getting rid of it. >> no. it's my hair. i'm going to straighten it out tonight and go straight. over the weekend, people paid too much attention on social media. a lot of strong opinions. overwhelmingly positive opinions, but it did happen to women's hair. it was interesting. i now know how you feel because willie has waves. i used to call willie lasagna head. but it's endearing. we like it the way you are. >> this pippa middleton interview is getting so much buzz. >> yeah. it's so weird. you've seen this woman on your screen for two or three years, but to actually go to london and sit down and walk in a room and go, hi, pippa. i'm matt. and meet her it was bizarre.
9:02 am
the thing most interesting to me is how she viewed the royal wedding before the royal wedding unfolded. take a look. >> sounds funny to say, but we thought as a family it's just a family wedding. and actually i didn't realize perhaps the scale of it until afterwards. and hi to make sure i helped my sister where i could and look after the bridesmaids. we saw it as a family getting together and doing their bit like any family. >> i think people will find that extraordinary that you viewed it just as a family wedding. it didn't feel that way to you in the buildup. >> even walking to the abbey, there were a lot of people. but i didn't see any tv cameras. so to me it was just performing in front of a lot of people, not necessarily the whole world. >> i remember that shot where you came out on the balcony. what was it like to look out at that sea of humanity? >> it was surreal. you didn't know if you were living it to yourself at that moment.
9:03 am
>> was that a moment, though, where the reality of the enormous nature of the event kicked in? >> i think so, yeah. when we saw crowds rushing around the balcony. it was like, wow, this is pretty special. >> there's uncle joe and aunt molly over there. >> i love her tone when reflecting on it like it's a family thing. that's crazy she saw it that way. >> but you think of yourself going to a wedding, she had that humility. i'm just a civilian at this point. i'm on a balcony at a wedding and there are a hundred thousand on the street. >> and i have a job to do. i have to make sure the train on the dress is fine. taking care of the page boys. of course, that day, that moment changed her life forever. she became pippa. we all knew her. and that was a great thing for her in a lot of ways. but then she started to see that social media started going after her. she talked a bit about the downside as well.
9:04 am
>> it's hard sometimes because i sort of -- you know, i felt publicly bullied a little bit just when i read things that purely aren't true or whichever way someone looks at it is a negative side. i'm trying to live a life like anyone. >> it's interesting you use the word bully. i think it's an apt term. i think a lot of young people, younger than you even, look at social media and think the same thing. >> i think people can really say something about you online or on a web page when they would never say it to your face. they think that's okay. >> i love her for that. i love that comment. that people think they can say it online and never say it to your face. she realizes she has an exceptional life, but your opinion on social media can still hurt. and it is bullying. i love that. >> she's one of those rare people who did not ask to be famous. her sister is the one who's
9:05 am
famous and just by being the sister of the duchess of cambridge, she falls onto that spot. >> it's the dress' fault. >> you gave me that question. i asked about that. >> so what did you talk away from sitting down with her? there are reasons obviously she didn't want to be an interview before that. and you convinced her to do one. how is she feeling about the spotlight that she's been in? >> i think she's in an unusual situation. she's 30 years old. she wants to have a career. she wants to be able to go off and do what she's doing. >> she wants to write. she's done things for "vanity fair" and others. she'd like to do more of that. but she's towing the line as trying not to capitalize on her sister's fame. i think she's fighting that balancing act. >> and town sit down with. >> she couldn't be nicer. i don't know what your expectations are. what you think about pippa middleton, but i will tell you
9:06 am
she seems normal, grounded, down to earth to me. >> the final part of matt's interview with pippa airs tomorrow. she talks about her nephew prince george and more. you can see the full interview on today.com. thanks for stopping by. >> welcome back. >> thank you. natalie meantime is down in brazil covering the world cup. what's the feeling down there? >> yeah. we missed you, willie. wish you were here. because it is so exciting. the atmosphere absolutely electric. a lot of pressure, of course, on the u.s. team. tomorrow they face belgium 4:00 p.m. eastern time. tomorrow i'll be coming live from there. and hopefully getting to the game myself. it's an incredible run for the u.s. men. a lot of people didn't expect them to make it this far. they are much alive. tomorrow is a must win situation or they will be sent home. now, for those of you who said at one point in your life that
9:07 am
soccer's boring, i just want to show you some of the highlights from this weekend. there was no shortage of drama here. of course that brazilian game against chile. absolutely stunning. it ended in a penalty shootout with brazil eking out a win here. i got to tell you, the celebrations were absolutely crazy here. and also brazilians in new york too. i understand they were even celebrating on the subway. i had to watch it at an airport on some little boy's iphone. i mean, i couldn't believe that at the airport in sao paulo they did not have a big screen. it's crazy. but it was a great game. brazil moves on. they'll play colombia on friday. that's going to be the rivalry of all rivalries here. other games, highlights this weekend. netherlands killing mexico. unfortunately it was due to another penalty kick there and a sad loss for the mexican team. they go home. and colombia, can we talk about the way they celebrate a win?
9:08 am
they do this little dance. and i think the u.s. team better start working on their moves, because i am definitely pulling for them. and i think i want to see a little celebration when they start scoring their goals tomorrow. so, you know what? as i mentioned, the atmosphere is absolutely electric. we see fans from every country represented here and every time there is a goal or a game ends here, you can tell which team won by looking at the beach. it's incredible. >> natalie, there's a little satellite breakup when you did the dance. can you do it one more time? >> you want to see that re-enacted? it's a little bachata. i'm not doing it justice. they have a choreographed perfectly. but while i was here, i did check out another sport. it's number two most popular sport here in brazil. it's basically soccer with volleyballs. and it is impossible. i played volleyball in high school.
9:09 am
i played soccer. the combination of the two very difficult. i had a great teacher who showed me all the moves. there are four ways to hit the ball. with your feet, thigh, shoulder, header. i think by the end i managed to make a point or two. it was pretty cool. then i also played a little soccer with a cute little boy named gabriel. he could be the next brazil julio cesar. the goalie. such hard work. >> there it is. what's in the coconut? >> time for enjoyment. >> it's not just coconut. >> coconut water. >> is that what we're calling it now? >> that's what hoda and kathie lee used to call it. it evolved. >> have fun down there. we'll talk to you soon. let's get a check of the weather from dylan dreyer in for al. >> nice to see you.
9:10 am
coconut water sounds amazing right now. >> with vodka. >> we are looking at some strong storms. still have some severe thunderstorm warnings in effect through des moines and into omaha, nebraska. we have this cold front here. out ahead of it it is extremely humid. dew points at 70 to 75 degrees. that sets up for an unstable atmosphere. we are looking at strong storms today from texas to michigan. that's where we could see your hail, your wind gusts. it's bright in orange here even including extreme southern wisconsin. into northern missouri and iowa. that's where we could see several tornadoes possible today. very large hail and also damaging straight line wind gusts. we could see some of that damage today. then tomorrow showers and storms in the northeast. new york state into northern arkansas. and again we have to keep an eye on it during the afternoon and evening for flooding, hail, wind
9:11 am
9:10. good monday morning. i'm meteorologist christina loren. these numbers speak for themselves. 94 in the south bay. 92 in the peninsula. a warm day shaping up in san francisco as we head throughout the next couple of days we're going to stay hot. but i will tell you, tomorrow we're going to shave maybe 3 to 4 degrees off of today's highs and we're back in the mid-90s and inland hot spots move in by wednesday into independence day. looking great this year. >> and that's your latest forecast. >> thanks is lot. still ahead, how many hours of sleep do you get on an average night? we asked you on today.com. you can still weigh in right now. we're going to get your feedback in the next segment latte or au lait? cozy or cool? exactly the way you want it ... until boom, it's bedtime! your mattress is a battleground of thwarted desire. enter the sleep number bed. right now, you can save $400 on the all-new c4 mattress set. he's the softy. his sleep number setting is 35.

9:16 am
why does it happen in that moment you need to fall asleep the most? >> my answer is you're bombarded with information all day. and when you're drifting off is the time all that sensory information is gone or quiet and sort of allows your mind to rehearse all these different things. >> we're going to talk about how to defeat some of that. we conducted a survey of our viewers. we asked how many hours of sleep do you get on average. what'd you find? >> the survey said 26% say they get five or fewer hours. but 58% say they get six to seven hours of sleep. eight or more hours, just 16 aar16%. 58% considering all the things we have rushing through our minds on a daily basis. >> what do you make of those numbers? what jumps out at me is the 26%. that's a quarter of our viewers getting five hours or less a night. >> yes.
9:17 am
that's incredible and in some ways scary. but what i would be interesting in seeing is how many of those are actually women who are reporting in. i think it's -- you know, we know that women are sleep deprived. more sleep deprived than men. >> why is that? >> there are biological reasons for that. we believe it's hormonal. and women tent d to have a lot stress and anxiety that keeps them up at night. their primary gar givers. they worry about issues more. it could be that. but there are a lot of biological reasons, we believe. and women at different time points in their life also have a different reason because of hormonal changes. >> let's talk about attacking this now. you say you have to prioritize sleep. make it something you do consistently every day. how do you do that? >> number one, you make it a priority. just like you exercise every day or, you know, watch your diet.
9:18 am
you really have to prioritize your sleep. i think another important thing that's really 21st century phenomenon is the bombardment with electronic devices we have. i think minimizing use of electronic devices within an hour of bedtime is important to help you fall asleep more easily. >> you talk about the importance of consistency in sleep hygiene. >> yes. a sleep hygiene is basically trying to maintain going to bed at the same time, waking up at the same time, also trying to keep -- which is very hard for women. but i think it's important to pay attention to sleep and also if there are any real issues that women, you know, identify with can bring it up with their primary care physician. >> interesting. i'm convinced you're alexander saarsgard from "true blood." >> i've heard that before. >> all right. thank you. up next, all the news you
