hello, everyone. i'm kate snow. >> and i'm zinhle essamuah. nbc "news daily" starts right now.

today, monday, june 19th, utter devastation. the southern u.s. bombarded by extreme storms. several people confirmed dead. hundreds of thousands have no power, and the threat is not over yet. bill karins is here tracking what's to come. surge of violence. at least 15 people shot, nine fatally after four shootings in separate cities this weekend. what we know about the attacks. breaking news. underwater search. crews are rushing to find a vessel used to take tourists to see the wreckage of the titanic. what we're learning about its disappearance. and day of reflection. on juneteenth, how america is reflecting on its past, honoring it progress and working on what's still to be done. >> happy juneteenth today that we're celebrating. we begin in the south though now entering another week of extreme weather. 10 million people at risk of severe storms today. among the threats, large hail, damaging wind, isolated

tornadoes across the gulf coast and southeast. check out what people in the florida panhandle dealt with earlier today. it was either a tornado or water spout. because this is so close to the gulf of mexico, it's unclear exactly if it was over water or over land. >> and as if that weren't enough, dangerously high temperatures stretch from texas to mississippi. 31 million people today are under heat alerts. that will make the recovery even tougher for communities hit by tornadoes like this one in mississippi. at least six people have died in recent days from severe storms across the south. nbc news meteorologist bill karins has the forecast, but we're going to begin with nbc's priscilla thompson in perrington, texas still on the road to recovery. >> reporter: it's been four days since that ef-3 tornado ripped through texas, and this is what things look like. there is still destruction, people everywhere. people began cleanup late last week, but then had to stop over the weekend as another round of storms and tornado threats swept through this area, but today,

folks are back at it trying to clear out those debris and assess what is left for them here. i spoke to oscar hernandez. he owns this business and three others up the block. all of them destroyed, and he tells me he does not have insurance, and he got emotional as he talked about what comes next. take a listen. how are you doing emotionally right now? >> it's hard. >> yeah. >> it's really hard. >> the buildings, the, you know. all the loss, all the people that lost their lives. what can you do? start over and get to work. that's what we're trying to do. >> reporter: and the mayor tells me he believes 90% of the 200 homes and businesses that were destroyed are uninsured, and he's not yet sure if this disaster is going to meet the requirements to qualify for federal aid, and so there are a lot of questions now about temporary housing and about

where the money is going to come from to rebuild. the mayor says that this is a very small town, and he worries that if people don't rebuild, there may not be much left here, but i will tell you it's also a very resilient town. we have seen folks out with barbecue grills making hot plates for folks so as they're cleaning up, they can have a hot meal. there are also cooling centers that have been opened for folks who don't have electricity right now. there are still a few hundred without electricity, and they're able to go there and get cool air and cool off as they're cleaning up. and so certainly a lot of hope and resilience in this community, but also quite a path forward as they try to recover from this disaster. back to you. >> yeah. you see so many neighbors helping neighbors. thanks for that. let's bring in meteorologist bill karins. will they get any relief down south any time soon in. >> soon, but not soon enough. we got isolated severe storms today. we've already seen some wind damage of course, near charleston.

a couple of them in northern portions in north carolina, and we have had some isolated tornadoes reported in southern mississippi and along the gulf coast. it looks like we just had a tornado in magnolia springs not far from gulf shores, alabama. that lingers, and there's also a flash flood warning for this region too. it's just been pouring. you can see it. it's pretty stationary and hasn't moved much. flash flooding will be from new orleans through the carolinas and down through areas of northern florida, and the temperatures are still brutally hot. look at dallas right now. it feels like 114. corpus christi, 116, and if that wasn't enough, we have a new tropical depression that's forecast to be a hurricane heading near puerto rico in about five days. >> hoping people stay safe. bill karins, thank you. >> oh, boy. across the country, investigators are searching for clues in at least four mass shootings over the holiday weekend. at least nine people were killed total and at least 43 others were hurt. one shooting happened near a music festival in washington state.

others took place around juneteenth celebrations. according to the gun violence archive which tracks these digits, there have been 315 mass shootings in the u.s. this year so far. bear in mind, there have only been 170 days so far. the archive defines a mass shooting as any incident where four or more people are shot. jesse kirsch is with us in cleveland, ohio. let me ask you about one particular shooting outside of chicago. what happened there? >> reporter: yeah, kate. this was in willowbrook, illinois, a suburb of the windy city. officials say saturday evening what was described as a peaceful juneteenth celebration, and in the overnight hours, violence erupted at this event. according to a report, at least 20 people shot. one person died in that incident according to officials. here's what we've heard from some people on the ground. >> when the gunshots happened, we heard the sirens and then within, i don't know, 10, 15 minutes, there was probably,

like, 50 cops along with ems. >> there was, like, some girls coming out, you know, that was there. she said that she heard the gunfire and was laying down and was trying to get picked up by her friends. >> she told us she was celebrating juneteenth with her friends, and as the gunshots happened, they kind of -- >> she ducked under the cars. >> they separated and she hid under a car. >> reporter: yet another celebratory incident -- celebratory environment turned into people ducking for cover, kate. >> i know that's not the only one, right? so what about the other mass shootings that happened over the holiday weekend? can you describe? >> reporter: there were numerous. i want to isolate mentioning a couple of them here. in washington state, two people were killed near a music festival who say there was a shooting at random. in st. louis, ten people were shot including a 17-year-old who was killed in that incident, kate, and again, this is going on across the country throughout a weekend that was supposed to be focused on celebrations for

juneteenth and father's day. communities all over the u.s. marred by violence, kate. >> jesse kirsch, thank you. the race is on to reopen a damaged stretch of one of america's busiest roadways. this is a live look at crews working around the clock to repair the damaged section of i-95. pennsylvania's governor made a promise saying commuters can expect the road to reopen within two weeks. it's been closed since last sunday when a tanker truck carrying gas burst into flames damaging the major artery and killing one person. george solis is at the scene in philadelphia. i want to show our viewers a mock-up of what the government is planning to do here. they're actually going to build temporary roads on top of the collapsed section of the interstate. they'll soon see that on their screens, but george, what needs to happen, and there it is, between now and that two-week target that's now been outlined? >> reporter: yeah, hey, zinhle. that work is already under way. the material they're using, this

recycled by-product, on-site to begin that paving process for those six temporary lanes, that temporary structure until that permanent work can be done. moments ago, i spoke with the pennsylvania department transportation secretary saying that this job can get done in two weeks, according to josh shapiro who said that alongside president joe biden. take a listen to what he told me. >> when i would say is that the traveling public will enjoy three lanes in each direction will not be able to notice the difference between our temporary solution and a permanent solution which we will construct concurrent with this use. >> reporter: zinhle, lots of detours around philadelphia, but they are getting the job done. that clock ticking for that two-week time period. >> lots of detours. this incident has led to a pretty serious traffic situation. what exactly is being done to relieve some of that pressure right now? >> reporter: yeah, in short, besides the detours, you have extra cars being added to

commuter trains and you have some mass transit lots. overall everyone is putting their hands into this effort to try to alleviate the pressures for some of the detours and alternate routes, but again, right now that timetable is set. two weeks, a lot of people waiting to see if it comes to fruition. zinhle? >> george in philly. thanks so much. today, americans across the country are marking juneteenth. on june 19, 1865, black people in texas learned they were finally free. that was two years after the emancipation proclamation. >> today communities nationwide are holding events to both commemorate the day and reflect on the nation's history. antoia hylton is with us. you have been speaking to people throughout the day. talk about what this day means to folks. >> reporter: this is a day of celebration and recognition of

history, you know, the history of juneteenth that there were -- oh, yes. this is my microphone. i'm on tv right now. this is my friend, gabriella. she's 8 years old and she made artwork. do you want to show what you made? this is what juneteenth is all about, loving being black, doing art, relaxing, having the day off, and taking care of yourself. even though there is a history of struggle of communities who deserved their rights and their access much earlier, people can come together and in spite of that sadness, take care of each other and have a lot of fun and that's what juneteenth is about. kids of every age are here. grantt grand parents are out there. there are dance performances and parties and people grilling and relaxing here all day long. that's what juneteenth is all about. i want you to listen to a conversation that i had with one of the vendors and organizers here that i think represents what juneteenth means to so many other folks. >> oftentimes when we don't get the information, we get stuck.

we don't know what to do, so juneteenth means empowering strength, making changes for our lives. >> it means learning our history and learning why we were held back and just knowledge is power. >> mm-hmm. >> a lot of knowledge, reading, little things we take for granted today were held back from us in the past. >> reporter: so people here are going to be doing health care events. they're doing work on food insecurity. there are organizations that work with homelessness and that's sort of part of their message here, is this is how far we've come, but there's still work to be done. not every state completely celebrates this as a holiday and a full day off work. it's federally recognized, but many of the grassroots organizers are making sure that other states like new york come together and celebrate and recognize juneteenth going forward. >> so beautiful to see the intergenerational both reflection and celebration including that young gabriella next to you who we saw. i wonder, antonia --

>> reporter: so sweet. >> she's so precious. what stood out to you when you are there at the celebrations? i know there's also been, like, self-care stations with yoga, and what's standing out to you about how people are remembering this day? >> what's really stood out to me today as i've talked to people one-on-one, you find that when you talk about the history of juneteenth, it's very painful and some people actually struggle to call it a celebration, call it a party, but that once they're together and they recognize this is about community, this is about taking care of themselves and i talked to people doing yoga, and once they realized that's what they have access to at free events like this one, they've come to a new meaning and they can see a future of what the holiday can be going forward. >> really beautiful. antonia, thank you so much. coming up, the underwater search for a missing vessel that was taking tourists to see (man) what if f my type 2 2 diabets takes ovover?

secretary of state antony blinken is on his way back to the united states. he just wrapped up a high-stakes meeting with the chinese president that many open could ease tensions between the u.s. and china. the original meeting was delayed after the u.s. shot down a chinese spy balloon off the coast of the u.s. in february. blinken's visit was the first time a u.s. secretary of state has visited china in five years. nbc news foreign correspondent matt bradley's following this one for us. what do we know about what they discussed in the meeting today?

what are some of the takeaways? >> reporter: well, i mean, kate, it was only a 45-minute meeting and it looks like it covered a range of issues, but we don't have big takeaways here. the biggest one was blinken did not get what he came for. he wanted to see the re-establishment of military to military direct communications, the kind of thing that we saw between the soviet union and the u.s. that averted outright violence and war during the cold war. this has not been there between beijing and washington for the last two years and that's really, really dangerous considering that beijing continues to launch overflights into taiwan area and other areas in the south china sea. all of the contested regions in the ocean off the southeast coast of china, so that means that this escalation isn't going to have a recourse to any direct communication between washington and beijing. that could set off a whole chain of events that could potentially lead toward. that's why antony blinken, he asked for this, and he was rebuffed. i got to tell you, you know, kate, the main thing here is exactly what you said.

people were just hopeful that this would mean a thaw in relations, and this was the highest level visit -- the only visit from a secretary of state in the past five years, and so even if he walks away empty-handed, all of that says something. my colleague janice mackey frayer spoke with blinken in beijing and here's what he told her about the significance of this meeting. >> it's a good and i think important start. both china and the united states i think recognize that we were in an increasingly unstable place in our relationship. i think this is the start of a process to put a little bit more stability into it. both of us recognize that we have an obligation to be responsible to the matters of the relationship, and that starts with communicating, with actually engaging across our government, and this was an opportunity to do that, an opportunity to make very clear where our deep differences are, and to have very detailed conversations about that as well as to see if there are areas

where, you know, our mutual interests, we might actually cooperate. >> reporter: and kate, you know, the thing is that even before this meeting happened, and the meeting was only announced 45 minutes before the two men shook hands. that's how, you know, really close all of this diplomacy cut, and the fact is that the state department had already been saying that this wasn't going to be a meeting that was going to deliver a lot of tangible benefits. this was just about creating confidence between these two huge global powers. kate? >> yeah, a first step though. matt bradley, thank you so much. the u.s. 2024 hopefuls are fanning out across the country this week to meet voters and raise money. former governor and ambassador nikki haley held a town hall event in south carolina this afternoon to discuss energy. the crowded gop field is looking to get out from under the media attention surrounding former donald trump's legal woes, but finding it's not so easy. on "meet the press," mike pence was asked if he would pardon his

former boss. >> i don't know why some of my competitors presume the president will be found guilty. if i have privilege to be president of the united states as i did when i was governor, we would value any request for a pardon. >> if you were president, would you pardon him right now? >> i just think this whole matter is incredibly divisive for the country. >> the former president still leads the crowded republican field by a wide margin. another runway collision between planes coming up. what the faa says happened this time and what a series of incidents could mean for the busy summer travel season. you're watching nbc "news daily." somedaysys, i cover r up becae of my y moderate to severere plaque p psoriasi. now i i feel free e to bare my s skin, thanknks to skyrir. ♪(u(uplifting m music)♪ ♪nothining is everyrything♪ i'm cecelebratingg mymy clearer s skin... my y .

he will be met by some local dignitaries. the governor of california, he is here on hand. one of our congress members is also here. there are also dignitaries from nasa here. the president again is here in the bay area. he's expected to make an announcement at about a $600 million investment toward infrastructure and also climate change mitigation to help communities better weather the storm of climate change. once he gets off the plane here and has his greeting, he is going to head to lucy evans nature preserve where he's going to make the $600 million announcement. the investment will address rising sea levels and storm surges for our coastal communities. also will talk about protecting the power grid. another infrastructure from extreme weather events like wildfires. i'll let you take a look at air force one.

this is my first time seeing it this up close and personal and it is a behemoth. quite the piece of equipment. no matter your political leaning, it is pretty exciting to see air force one touch down here in our community. we expect the president will be deboarding soon. if you can hear us, we are just a few minutes ahead of schedule. we were expecting him to arrive at 12:25. i'll let you just take it in. beautiful blue skies. and the planes, two different shades of blue with that presidential seal there. and the american flag there on the tail of the plane. >> big announcement today as you mentioned. he's going to be making that announcement about the funding and regards to infrastructure as well as the climate crisis in our country.

that's the first thing he's expected to do. i understand we've been talking about over the last several days that he's going to be attending a couple of fund-raisers as well. yes? >> yes. now that the engines have turned down a bit, we know that he is going make a promise of investment and funding for this climate change initiative but he's also hoping to get a promise from the people who support him. this is also a campaign stop as he just announced officially over the weekend that he is running for re-election. we know that he has a number of fund-raisers around the bay area. we know he will be headed to los gattos later this afternoon for a fund-raiser there. the cto of microsoft and linkedin, the founder, they are going to host him there. then he's going to be in atherton with the venture capitalist, steve wheelen. so there's going to be some big pocket donors there.

we understand one of those two fund-raisers is about a $6500 entrance and that's just the start. we know that people will donate more than that. he's also headed up with the governor who's here on the tarmac now. you see him there on the right hand side of your screen. he will be headed up to kent field in marin county for another fund-raiser and that is happening tomorrow. now there in the distance you see in the red, that is the congresswoman. she is one of the dignitaries that is here on hand to great the president. and we see the stepladder. the staircase coming down. and that's where we will be seeing the president disembarking at the rear of the plane. rushing off the plane is the white house press corp. and they will be here on the ground as well. at the same time that president biden is here in town, we know that one of the men who wants to be his primary opponent, ron

social media today with a band-aid and bruised eye, saying i'm good. a man sitting on his own property was killed. >> why it happened, and why more bear encounters could be more common over the summer. >> rp reporting the neighbor has been attacked by a bear. >> reporter: in what's being described as a vicious, unprovoked attack in this rural area of arizona, an adult male black bear mauled a 66-year-old man to death. witnesses telling sheriff's deputies steven jackson was having a cup of coffee on his property where he had begun building a cabin when the bear approached him and attacked. jackson's screams heard by neighbors who tried to distract the bear and stop the brutal scene. >> there was honking horns, different things that they were doing. there was no success in stopping the attack. >> reporter: the bear dragged jackson about 75 yards down a

nearby hill before one neighbor arrived with a rifle. >> the bear has been shot. >> the bear is down. i have visual on it. it's not moving. >> reporter: the neighbor killed the bear, but it was too late for jackson who died from his injuries. >> nothing jumped out at us as being obvious to why this occurred or what brought the bear too this location. this attack appears to be predatory in nature. >> reporter: adult male black bears can weigh up to 600 pounds, but despite their intimidating size, attacks are incredibly rare with about 300,000 living in the u.s., only one fatal attack per year. the experts think the animal may have been in search for food or felt it needed to protect its surroundings. >> it could be this terrible situation where the man unbeknownst to him who was building property in the bear's territory, and the bear was trying to defend that. >> reporter: now with summer approaching, encounters may

become more common. as bears awake from hibernation and roam for food and humans head outdoors. >> experts say black bears are the least aggressive species. they say if you encounter a black bear while out in the wilderness, it's best to simply back away, raise your voice and make yourself appear as big as possible. back to you. >> miguel, thank you. >> good advice. we're following breaking news this hour. a massive search and rescue mission is under way in the north atlantic. >> a vessel used by tourists to explore the wreckage of the titanic is missing. it's unclear exactly how many people are on board. the titanic wreckage is about 1,000 miles east of cape cod, massachusetts. crews from the u.s. and canadian coast guards are searching for this vessel now. >> the vessel was part of a tour led by ocean gate expeditions that did not return on sunday. the company releasing this statement to nbc news, quote, our entire focus is on the crewmembers in the submarine and their families. we are deeply thankful for their

extensive assistance we have received from several government agencies and deep sea companies to try to regain contact with them. yet another close call between two airplanes is now under investigation. this is the eighth one so far this year. delta airlines says no one was hurt during the incident in boston, but the collision did force passengers to scramble to rebook their flights as nbc's sam brock explains the faa is trying to find out why this keeps happening. >> reporter: the incident last week at logan international airport was just the latest in a string of what we would call runway incursions which basically translates to really close calls. in this case, there was a united plane that clipped the back of a delta plane. an 11-year-old boy was sitting inside of the united plane watching this all unfold and trying to figure out what is going on with these aircrafts. it's the third time in recent months that something has happened along these lines at logan. two planes were clipped in march, and there was a jetblue plane which was going land on the runway where a jet had not

been given permission to take off, and had done it anyway, and had to take pervasive action. there have been eight incidents since january of collisions or near collisions with planes. what that has done is prompted the faa to take a closer look at what's going on here. they feld a safety summit trying to dole out $11 million to 12 airports across the country including miami international airport where i am. the agency says part of that money was to sort of reconfigure taxiways that might be confusing and add lighting to airfields. the faa has put an emphasis on operations and airfields. there are some 1,500 controllers for the year, as there has been a shortage of air traffic controllers. that's a comprehensive big picture. since march, we've seen a reduction.

it's about one every three weeks even with all these changes and clearly americans are reacting and the faa continues to investigate. sam brock, back to you. >> thank you. we are marking this juneteenth national holiday throughout the program today. it commemorates the emancipation of enslaved americans. later this month, the new international african american museum will open its doors in charleston, south carolina. we'll get a first look at some of the powerful exhibits inside. . >> reporter: the new international african american museum sits along the charleston seaport tied to some of the most tragic events in american history. >> where are we? >> so we are at the former site of the war somewhere between 46% and 47% of all africans who were brought into what is now america, would have come through this complex. >> reporter: dr. tonya matthews is the museum's president and ceo. why was it so important to have this museum here? >> it's incredible for a museum

to have what we call power of place, to actually be rooted in the space that is the source of a lot of our stories. >> reporter: those stories are on display here in this new $100 million museum. the single-story structure hovers on 13 pillars. the grounds are full of history, and artists' interpretation of the diagram contains the brutal representation of the slave ships. a couple of hundred years ago. >> this is where they would be taken off of the ships. >> reporter: inside the state of the art museum, you can see how the journey continued with the port of departure, featuring the names that individuals had when they left africa. across the gallery, the port of arrival shows the names they were given on american soil. one name was striking. >> hard times? >> hard times. >> reporter: the hard times of slavery are documented in this museum, but so are the fight for freedom, from reconstruction to

the great migration and the civil rights movement. contributions in the arts, sciences, and every other field of american life. >> this is a living, vibrant, breathing culture. >> reporter: a powerful component of this new museum will be the center for family history. the center will offer a team of genealogists to help visitors of any background how to uncover their family histories. what's the hardest part of sort of finding out where you're from and who your people are, and how you got here? >> well, if we're talking specifically african american, there's a lot of challenges. number one challenge is it could be first name only. number two, the records we might not have access to them because they could be with the plantation owner's family. >> reporter: dr. murphy says it could be difficult to find the branches of a family tree that date back to the slave era, but not impossible. she helped me using census records and documents from a

slave-owning family. >> john h. livingston is white, okay? and this will is dated november the 7th, 1849. >> okay. >> so a lot of times if it's a slave owner, he's going to hand out or divvy out the enslaved people. what's interesting with john h. livingston is that he handed out family groupings to his children. >> so families of enslaved people? >> that is your line and who owned them, and in his will, where he's divvying them up. >> so my great-great-great -- >> it's three. >> they were enslaved. >> yes. >> this wasn't that long ago, i mean, in terms of -- >> no. >> but this was the man who would have owned my great-great-great-great -- >> absolutely. >> thank you for this. this is great. >> yeah. >> reporter: these are details i'd always hoped to learn. the story of my family, and that of more than 40 million people

like me has a home here, and many of those american stories started here in charleston, and they're still being written. >> when folks come and experience this museum, what do you hope that they take away from it? >> african americans simultaneously hold trauma and joy. not trauma on tuesday and joy on thursday. it is woven in there together, and so i'm hoping that folks get that. yeah, there's this real sadness here, but there's also real triumph. >> it is truly such an impressive museum, a vision that took some 20 years to realize, and that genealogy component is pretty huge. the dedication celebration is going to take place on saturday with doors opening to the public on tuesday, june 27th. back to you. >> wow. >> thank you so much for that, craig. >> yeah. such a moving report. so many powerful experiences so many will have, and that museum estimates that around 40% of all

enslaved people from africa passed through the same area where that museum is today. >> 40%? >> yeah. >> it's unbelievable and just to see them find -- do a deep dive and search for craig's own family? >> yes. >> i imagine a lot of people will want to go and try to figure out, just have some answer. >> what their story is, and that museum and days like today, juneteenth, opportunity to celebrate triumphs and also look back. >> yeah. for every one of us. >> absolutely. >> thanks, craig. well, coming up, not good at getting a good night's sleep in how everything from pillows to stress can really make or break your sleep habits. but first time for today's daily snapshot. major league baseball celebrated juneteenth over the weekend. the red sox marked the holiday by having the juneteenth flag designer ben haith throw out the first pitch for the yankees. he is a boston native and he said it felt like he was living in a miracle. more nbc "news daily" right after this.

position sleeping, stress, and even snoring can all impact your mental and physical restfulness. >> here to talk about all of it, all things sleep is a certified clinical sleep educator and a representative for the better sleep council. didn't know there was such a thing. >> yes. >> all right. confession first. i have over the past couple of years tried at least 12 different pillows. i order one, i return it. i order another. i cannot find a great pillow, and i think i'm not alone. how does a bad pillow impact our sleep, and what makes a good pillow? >> well, keep looking, but it really depends. it's trial and error a lot of the time, but it depends on your preferred sleep position, and it depends on so many things. are you a hot sleeper? there are pillows that will cool you off when you are sleeping. there are a lot of different options now out there, so i would keep trying, and when it comes to kids, older kids, let them pick their pillows, you know, take them shopping. get them empowered to learn about sleep and to realize it's

an important part of their lives and then they have some say? it. >> if it's comfortable, is that the best pillow? >> yeah. just make sure it's comfortable because it does a lot. i mean, it's really the bed for your head, the pillow is. it's so important that there's a dynamic between the pillow and the mattress. it has to kind of all flow together, but it does take trial and error. >> i call that pillow talk. i like it. >> yes. >> let's talk about sleep positions because you mention that. side sleeping, on your back, on your front. what's good for you, and maybe what's not? >> well, it just depends. if you tend to snore, i would probably advise against being on your back. that can cause snoring to get worse. side sleeping is better for that. some people love to sleep on their stomachs and they do fine with that. some people get neck and shoulder pain from doing that. so it kind of depends. adjustable bases so your feet go up and down, those give you more sleeping position options.

those can be worth try for sure. >> you were saying in the commercial break that side sleeping can be actually good for you? >> yes, yes. okay. so we think -- there's some research on side sleeping it gets the proteins and sort of helps drain the proteins that may be implicated in alzheimer's and dementia. so it can kind of help clear that waste which is pretty fascinating. pregnancy, they recommend sleeping on your side late in the pregnancy, and that would be the left side. >> interesting. >> you mentioned snoring if you are on your back. i nudge my husband to get him to turn over when he's on his back and snoring. there are health problems associated with snoring, right? >> absolutely. some things get on your side. elevate the head of the bed a little bit, and watch alcohol intake close to bedtime. it can worsen that, but you want to be careful with snoring, and make sure it's not sleep apnea. so look at daytime symptoms. if he's tired during the day,

excessively sleepy, irritable, having a hard time focusing or just dealing with day-to-day things, stressed out, that would be worthy of getting assessed for sleep apnea because we want to get that diagnosed, treated, and managed just to avoid some serious problems. >> and i want to dig deeper sloo quality of sleep because you mentioned how alcohol can affect sleep. i imagine stress may impact the quality of sleep we're having, right? >> stress and sleep, it's a two-way street. the more sleep-deprived you are, the more stressed you are. that's just the way it is. >> yeah. >> obviously the more stressed you are, it's harder to fall asleep. so the very first thing you need to do is up your sleep time. >> yeah. >> make sure, adults, seven to nine hours every single night. that's the goal. >> uh-oh. >> seven to nine hours? >> you both look guilty. >> okay. so seven to nine is the rule, and for people who travel a lot, spend a lot of times in hotels out of their own space, and if

you can have normal sleep routines, when you are not at home? >> go to a sleep-friendly hotel. i think exercise is important if you are traveling or home. even a ten-minute walk with contribute positively to your sleep quality that night. >> yeah. >> so just something short and sweet like a ten-minute walk helps you sleep, and the better you sleep, the more energy and motivation you'll have to get exercise in the daytime. >> love that. build that routine, not just when you are at home. >> when you are traveling. so great to have you with us. thank you so much. >> thanks. we have a lot more news ahead. you're watching nbc "news daily." >> we're going to get some sleep tonight. more shopping? you should watch your spending honey. i'm saving with liberty mutual, mom. they customize your car insurance so you o only pay for r what you n need. check k it out, so you o only pay for r what you n need. yoyou could sasave $700 dollalars just by swswitching. yoyou could sasave $700 dollalars ooooh, i'll look ininto that. yoyou could sasave $700 dollalars let me p put a remininder on my phphone. save $700 0 dollars. let me p put a remininder on my phphone.

congresswoman and some folks from nasa. the president left from his motorcade from here to palo alto. that is where he's going to make a $600 million announcement about funds for helping to mitigate climate change to help our coastal communities deal with storm surge and erosion. also to help protect the infrastructure like our power grid from natural disasters like the wildfires we've been devastated by in years past. the president is not only here to promise money, he is also here to accept promises of money. he's hoping to fill his campaign war chest to launch his official campaign in the last week or so. and we know that he is going to be meeting with some big pocket donors as the bay area is the nation's atm for campaign stops. we know he has a fund-raiser this afternoon. he's also going to be going to atherton and tomorrow, he will join governor in marin county.

he's not the only person looking for deep pockets. ron desantis who would like to be his opponent in the election, also in bay area and he expect he's going to go to a fund-raiser in west side. though it is hush hush at this point, he is going to be at a country club fund-raiser in sacramento as well. we know that he is really pushing to differentiate from what is happening in california and florida. he launched, before he landed, a campaign ad that really tried to talk about what's gone wrong in california versus what conservative policies have done for florida. so again, the president is on the ground in the bay area. he will be here for a day and a half or so and we know that we will be following him every step of the way. we're going to bring you more on
