take a look at this video. the train tracks in vermont left hanging over 100 feet in the air after the ground was washed away by the flash flooding. >> after all that, 21 million people in at risk of heavy storms today in the plains and midwest. heavy winds and possible hail in the forecast. we're tracking all of it this morning. we are going to begin with that brutal heat. priscilla thompson is right in the heart of it in houston for us. hey, priscilla, good morning. >> reporter: unfortunately, the brutal heat is here to stay showing no relief in the coming days. here folks are up early, getting the laps in before we hit the triple digit temperatures. across the country, temperatures are making a run for records that have stood for nearly 50 years. this morning extreme heat is intensifying from coast-to-coast.

>> this summer is worse than all the past summers. >> reporter: highs expected to reach a staggering 120 degrees in some spots by the weekend. experts say it's historically hot. >> we're seeing things get worse and worse. we sometimes hear the expression a new normal. is this a new normal? but it's worse than that. more intense and frequent heat waves, wild fires, floods like we're seeing play out this summer. >> reporter: the official start of summer was just three weeks ago, but already in south florida, miami has seen 31 consecutive days of a 100-plus degree heat index. >> the humidity is what kills you. >> reporter: el paso has 26 100 plus degree days, their longest streak ever recorded. houston is now placing for another week of temps expected to feel like 105 degrees and hotter. >> i came to the park prepared because i knew without it i'd die out here. >> it's been 100 degrees two weeks almost. it's crazy.

>> reporter: the prolonged heat claimed more than a dozen lives already this summer. july is on pace to be the hottest. impacting crops and produce. >> all the customers want to come out and get their fresh-grown produce. unfortunately i dot ve as much to offer as i would have. mother nature needs to help us out. >> reporter: the never-ending scorcher leaving millions bracing for what's to come and hoping for some relief. and just to give you a sense of how hot it is, already right now it is 83 degrees, and that temperature is going to keep ticking up. of course, one way to beat the heat is to head to the pool like this one. but, also, for folks that are staying home in the ac, you don't want to crank that

air-conditioner all the way down. experts say that will put a lot of strain on your air-conditioner, which is already working overtime in this heat. hoda? >> priscilla, thank you. from one intense weather event to another. parts of the northeast remain overwhelmed by historic flooding this morning, the worst in nearly 100 years in vermont where some residents are actually still trapped. roads covered in mud and debris and even more rain could be on the way there. kristen dahlgren is in vermont's capital. good morning to you. what's the latest? >> reporter: good morning, craig. well, vermont is in a state of emergency after some places receiving up to nine inches of rain. you can see just the power of that water. take a look. piles of debris. come over this way, and you can see piles of mud here. thousands of homes were wiped away. some towns still inaccessible this morning. search and rescue crews still standing by in case anybody is

trapped in their home. the good news is that dam they were worried about yesterday as it reached capacity, they were worried about it spilling over, and that's not going to happen. but there is rain, as you mentioned, in the forecast later on this week. with the ground so saturated here, there is really no place for that water to go. so not a lot of people breathing any signs of relief here, craig. >> good to hear the water is receding. do you know how long it will take for things to get back to normal there? >> reporter: right. it's a good question. all we can say is it is going to be a while with this kind of mud. they started cleanup this morning. this is an all hands on deck effort. six states sent rescue efforts. now they are going to need help with the cleanup. it will be quite a while and probably into the billions, craig. >> kristen dahlgren for us there in vermont. thank you.

>> 7:08. al is busy tracking the weather. last thing they want is more rain. looks like some is on the way. >> unfortunately, a frontal system is moving in. as this system pushes to the east, we do see the risk, a flash flood risk. rainfall rates up to 1 1/2 inches per hour from syracuse, albany up to burlington, new mexico and rainfall anywhere from one to two inches. it will not take much to push things into that emergency situation. 78 million people under heat advisories, heat watches, heat warnings from california to the panhandle of florida into southern florida. these are the temperatures we're looking at today. miami will feel like 106. 96 in wilmington. 104 in kansas city. corpus christi, the heat index, 113 degrees. tomorrow that heat and those triple digit heat indexes continue from charlotte, corpus christi, little rock down into miami. and into the weekend, look at

these temperatures. 90s d.c., delaware, atlanta. oklahoma city in the mid-90s. 100 in shreveport. out west, the heat continues. triple-digit heat in phoenix. palm springs tomorrow more of the same out to fresno and look at the weekend. careful there.ll 1 degrees, dan heat seen in las vegas. and it's just going to continue on into next week, guys. this pattern is not going anywhere. >> all right. we'll come back to you in a few minutes with the national forecast. now to the breaking news overnight tied to the nationwide battle over abortion with republican lawmakers in iowa passing a near total ban after-hours of intense debate and protests there as well.

shaq, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, craig. well, that 15-hour special session went late into the night, but had just one goal, to add new abortion restrictions across the state of iowa. for republicans here, it was mission accomplished as legal access to abortion nationwide continues to fall. this morning, iowa on the verge of enacting a new restricted ban on abortion. >> step away from me! >> reporter: despite hours of intense protests and strong debate -- >> the bill is declared to have passed the senate and the title was agreed to. >> reporter: iowa lawmakers overnight passing legislation blocking the procedure after the detection of cardiac activity, banning abortion at roughly six weeks before most women know they're pregnant. >> if they're not prepared to have a baby, they shouldn't have sex. >> reporter: iowa republicans passed a nearly identical version in 2018 that was quickly blocked by the courts, but that law came before the u.s. supreme

court overturned roe v. wade, and republicans hope a more conservative supreme court will let this stand. >> it will have a huge impact. this would affect almost all the patients that we see. >> reporter: the bill includes exemptions to protect the life of the mother and for rape and insist if reported to law enforcement, public health authorities or a doctor. >> if this bill becomes a law, women will die in iowa. common sense has walked out the door. >> reporter: iowa's governor promising to sign the bill. iowa would become the 16th state restricting abortion access to six weeks or less. 14 of those states currently ban the procedure with few exceptions. >> ever since that child was conceived, it is a child. it is a life and it matters. >> reporter: most iowa residents say abortion should be illegal in all or most cases, including 70% of women. this morning the limited providers across the state are scrambling, saying they're

unsure what happens next. >> i want to continue practicing medicine, and i think the language is so vague that i need to know when i can intervene to save a woman's life. >> reporter: that ban goes into effect immediately after being signed by the governor on friday. clinics saying they're already making arrangements, moving up appointments and looking for out-of-state options for women seeking care. many of the lawmakers yesterday say they expect this to end up right back in the courts. craig? >> shaq, thank you. meantime, that high-stakes nato summit is wrapping up today with president biden set to deliver a major speech after a face-to-face meeting with ukraine's president. peter alexander joins us with the very latest from there. good morning. >> reporter: hoda, good morning

to you. this is a critical day in president biden's trip as he looks to fortify nato's strength ahead of that sit-down with president volodymyr zelenskyy who has been forceful against nato's resistance to set a specific time line for ukraine to join nato. today zelenskyy showing gratitude. president biden this morning on tap to meet with president volodymyr zelenskyy. their third face-to-face this year. amid disagreement over when and how ukraine will be allowed to join the alliance. a statement from nato's leaders here said they plan to include ukraine eventually, but planned or provided no specific timeline, saying there are democratic and military standards ukraine must first meet. volodymyr zelenskyy initially called that decision absurd but today softening that tone saying he wants to be on the same page

as nato. >> understand that we will have the invitation when security measures will allow. >> reporter: world leaders here are announcing increased security assistance to ukraine, calling it a long-term commitment. >> mr. secretary, good morning to you. >> reporter: secretary of state antony blinken telling savannah today the take-away from the summit for vladimir putin is here. >> that tells president putin, he can't outlast us. he can't out last ukraine. he can't out last all of the countries supporting ukraine. >> reporter: it comes ahead of what the white house is tapping as a major speech today. just to the east, russia is watching what happens here closely, accusing nato of a strong anti-russian attitude, warning the addition of two new nato members, quote, carries very big risks. in kyiv today, another round of russian attacks with drones. ukrainian officials say they were all intercepted.

also this morning, news of another potential high-level loss for the russian military. a ukrainian official citing reports that a russian commander was killed in a russian-occupied city in eastern ukraine after a long-range missile strike there. nbc news has not independently confirmed his death. the russian military has not commented either, hoda. >> peter alexander there for us in lithuania. peter, thank you. now there is a slow-moving disaster unfolding in southern california.disaster unfolding i california. a landslide has already destroyed at least a dozen hilltop homes in los angeles. it's forced some residents to flee. and this morning dozens more homes now in danger. steve patterson is there for us. steve, good morning. >> reporter: craig, good morning to you. and good morning from the palos verdes peninsula. it is hilly. it is affluent. and in some places it is known

to be geologically unstable. that is not thought to be the case in this neighborhood until now. this morning a surreal scene of shattered roofs and cracked structures. the aftermath of a slow-motion landslide still underway. >> it's moving quickly. there's nothing to do to stop it. it's the most shocking and surreal thing i have ever seen. >> reporter: red tagged at least 12 homes meaning they're not safe to be lived in, with several more under constant watch. >> they're absolutely collapsing on top of themselves. the roofs are at ground level. >> reporter: ground residents in rolling hills estates 25 miles south of los angeles started noticing cracks in their homes and on the ground on saturday. >> this place just started creaking. >> reporter: the ground gave way to a landslide taking 12 homes with it. he had just 10 minutes to grab what he could and evacuate his home. >> we will put our lives together and find a place to

stay. >> reporter: is there any part of your home that is left standing? >> no, no. i think by the time, if i come tomorrow, it will be all gone. >> reporter: the cause still under investigation. >> we think after it's all settled a good geologist and soil expert will give us a clue about how this happened. >> reporter: a fissure was found along the destroyed homes raising suspicions about over saturation with california's rain fall. some residents are urging for accountability. >> i'm angry they gave us no indication that something may have happened. nobody alerted us. >> reporter: last night the city council here declaring a local state of emergency that frees up state and federal aid on top of tax relief for people that lost their homes. >> steve, thank you. all right. it is 7:18. checking in with al. boy, the skies have opened up in

are asking questions about a new cloud of dust first seen in some areas nearly 24 hours ago. they say the petroleum coke dust is the byproduct of the refining process and it reported the release to the health department within two hours. there was a similar incident that happened last thanksgiving involving another byproduct called spent catalyst which the refinery was slow to report. a lab is examining samples of the latest substance to determine if it is toxic and the results won't be in until the end of the week. with the extreme heat heading our way, cooling centers are opening this morning in parts of the south bay. bay area cities are also encouraging residents to avoid exercising during the afternoon hours. this is because they want you to be aware of rattlesnakes, ticks and mountain lions which tend to emerge during the heat. the state will send out alerts this week warning about the heat-related illnesses and symptoms to look out for.

you don't have to tell me twice to stay inside if the rattlesnakes and the cougars are coming out. >> it's going to be hot over these next several days. look at these temperatures inland, headed for the triple digits from friday through sunday. it's still going to be hot on monday as well. for san francisco, definitely milder compared to the inland areas, going from 60s to upper 70s and we'll see more low clouds and fog rolling back in on sunday to help bring temperatures down a few notches. and the cooling temperatures through early next week. of course, we'll continue to send out alerts on the high heat we're going to see. the latest on all of this and the formation on the formation on in

temperatures are actually climbing in some parts of the country where there has been no relief from the heat for weeks houston reaching another stretch of days. when it is going to feel like it is 105 degrees or worse. on the east coast in miami, where the heat index topped 100 since the middle of june but there is a different problem in vermont main streets covered with mud and debris there is still, by the way, some people trapped in their homes still waiting to be rescued. now al is in and he's telling us there may be more storms on the way. >> yeah. it will not be copious amounts of rain like we saw. however, what is going to happen is the storms will be training across with ground already saturated, that means we are looking at the possibility of flooding. so down in the lower mississippi river valley, ohio river valley, i should say, the possibility of flooding but burlington, vermont, new hampshire, albany, new york,

rain fall rates could be up to an inch and a half per hour and that could set off flooding. we're looking at 78 million people impacted for heat watches and warnings from california down to florida across the gulf coast. this weekend we're talking heat waves. temperatures in the 90s for d.c., memphis. triple digits in shreveport. and el paso, phoenix, burbank. burbank, california, even into the mountains of california, big bear this week it could see temperatures in the mid-90s. so there is no escape for the heat, and it will just continue, guys, right into next week. >> thanks, al. breaking overnight, north korea launched ballistic missiles days after threatens the united states. the missile flew for more than an hour before landing in the sea of japan, the longest flight plan ever for a korean peninsula. north korea warned that a, quote, shocking incident could

occur if the u.s. intrusions continued. u.s. officials dismiss the accusations. bank of america has been fined $150 million for deceptive and sometimes illegal practices that hurt hundreds of thousands of consumers the bank must also pay another $80 million to customers charged bogus fees according to federal regulators, the bank charged multiple $35 overdraft fees and signed up customers for credit cards without their knowledge. bank of america has already paid $23 million to customers who were denied their credit card rewards. let's move to new technology that's promising, exciting new frontiers, but also huge headaches. we're talking about artificial intelligence one of the fathers of the tech revolution, bill gates, has a new blog post out outlining some of the biggest concerns he has now about how a.i. can change our lives. jacob ward covers tech for us. jake, we have been on this topic

a lot. we haven't heard from bill gates in depth but he outlines five areas he's very concerned about. tell us about those. >> it's interesting to hear the microsoft founder talk about this five-point list he describing everything from the fear of misinformation, that it can super charge the ability of people to misinform the public it could take our jobs he talks about the inherent bias that researchers have shown inside certain forms of a.i. it could super charge the work of hackers and cyberattackers. and the worry we all have for our kids we've talked about this in the past >> yeah. >> can your student child wiped up relying on chatgpt or something like it and end up learning nothing what's interesting about the blog post is he lays it out as a set of warnings, but in almost every case, he basically says, don't worry about it we can figure it out more or less, we essentially have solved a bunch of these

problems since the blog post came out i have been talking to experts about this that is not what they have to say about it, right? let's talk about jobs. he says, he argues, productivity has been great for everyone. we see when new technology comes along, it creates new jobs that's been true for a long time historically but in the last 20 years in the u.s. and european union, your individual household income has not gone up with gdp money is getting focused at the top. so this is something that a lot of experts are saying, maybe it is not as nice as he says. >> you have been in this space long before most of us were even talking about a.i. your book is a great premise for people interested in learning more in your opinion, as someone that covered this for a while, is bill gates a guy we should be listening to when it comes to a.i. and solutions >> that is such a good question. one of the things that is happening now a lot is that we're seeing that the people that made money early on technology are trying to position themselves as

independent academic style thinkers on this stuff and bill gates is the latest but i think it is important to recognize this is not an independent voice. he is not an academic. this is a person that is investing a tremendous amount of money personally into the space. he put a lot of money into a company called inflexion a.i., which is he touting as the personal assistance of the future it could wipe out amazon and google until people not making money off ai tell us not to worry about it, i'm still going to worry about it >> enjoy your perspective. meanwhile, there is a worried los angeles family that posted a $1,000 reward for the safe return of big mama. follow me here big mama is their beloved 15-foot long pet python. >> my goodness. >> apparently, she disappeared from her cage on the 4th of july the family says big mama not poisonous, not aggressive, and she had a big meal just before she vanished, so she's probably

not hungry yet they are asking anyone who sees the snake to keep their distance, though call the police or perhaps an animal shelter but we want to get big mama back home asap. >> i have so many questions but not enough time. so we'll just leave it on the table. >> we'll keep you posted. ahead on "popstart," christmas in july. inside the idea that has hallmark channel set to take its love of the holiday season to a whole new level. >> first, though, you don't want to miss hoda kotb's big evening withth music legegend shaniaia >> youou know whatat, let me t about dreaeams coming g true we'll takeke you behinind the scscenes, a lilittle one-o-on-o, babackstage, t too, right t aft thisis ♪♪♪ you dodon't have t to keep ts on rototating catetegories. thisis is the ononly rotating i care abobout. ... or a activate ananythig toto earn. thisis is the ononly rotating i care abobout. yourur cash backck automaticy adjujusts for yoyou. cacan i get a a cucumber w wa? yourur cash backck automaticy adjujusts for yoyou. earn 5% % cash backk that aututomaticallyly adjus yourur cash backck automaticy adjujusts for yoyou. to your top eligigible spend category, up to $500 spent each billing cycle withth the citi i custom ca℠s card. i love i it...

we are back now. 8:35 on this wednesday we are back now. 8:35 on this wednesday morning with your health this morning, a closer look at a drug that treats alzheimer's it is that drug that just revealed full approval from the fda. >> our friend maria is here. >> good morning to everybody it is nice to see everybody. the drug is the first fda-approved treatment that

slows cognitive decline in some alzheimer's patients there are still questions about its efficacy and safety. so we are taking a deeper look at it and have everything that you need to know some call it a revolution in alzheimer's treatment. >> this gives hope it's momentous. >> for the first time in history, the fda giving full approval to a drug that targets the underlying causes of alzheimer's. it's called leqembi. it is a twice a month infusion treatment for people in the earliest stages of the disease, suffering from mild cognitive impairment they make up about one-third of all alzheimer's patients the drug works by reducing amyloid plaques in the brain, which may be a root cause of alzheimer's. in a study of 1,800 people with early alzheimer's, the drug slowed cognitive decline in

patients by 27% over a year and a half dr. joanne pike is ceo of the alzheimer's association. >> this is pivotal. >> but it also should be cautioned that this is not reversing alzheimer's. this is not going to slow it down if you are a year or two years into your journey, correct? >> this is not a cure, correct in fact, it slows down progress at the earliest stages for a period of time >> this patient says the drug has given him more time with his wife, gayle, before his mind fades away >> taking this drug has given me a lot of confidence. >> his memory had been declining for years. diagnosed with early alzheimer's, he joined the study and has been getting infusions every two weeks for the last two years. since he began treatment, tests show his cognitive abilities haven't declined at all, allowing him at age 89 to continue his active lifestyle. >> we may get shots, but i still

ski in winter, winter skiing and i'm looking forward to this winter coming up. >> you ski >> yes downhill skiing. >> but he's not allowed to do double diamonds or moguls any more. >> it does come with risks in a clinical trial, 12% of patients had brain swelling and 17% brain bleeding. dr. jason is an alzheimer's expert at the university of pennsylvania many people here brain bleed, swelling of the brain and go like, whoa, not for me why would anybody want to do that >> i'm concerned, but i would dampen that immediate fear that these can be detected before they cause harm. >> but he says that would require rigorous pre-screening of patients and once on the drug, close monitoring of them for adverse affects. it is not appropriate for anyone in the more advanced stages of

alzheimer's and could be dangerous for those on blood thinners or who carry the apo-4 alzheimer's gene. >> there can be harm to people in the absence of a well educated patient and family, it raises the risk. things could go wrong really bad. >> long-term drug safety and efficacy are still unknown, and it is expensive. around $26,000 a year. though full fda approval means medicare will cover it, with some conditions. while it's not a cure, they say the drug gives families like them something they desperately need, a ray of light in the long and dark tunnel of this disease. >> it gives people hope that there is life after these diagnoses that you can move forward. >> medicaid will cover this drug, which is expensive, only

if doctors enroll patients in the registry to track their progress on it they say some doctors refuse to use registries and finding a doctor that does could be a challenge in some areas. but others think having a registry is how we will get the data. >> if you are someone in your family and you are seeing cognitive decline and you are thinking, this could be the drug they need. what should they do? >> first they should get tested and seek out an alzheimer's expert and that's hard because there are not a lot of them. but the alzheimer's association can direct you to some people in your area. the tests are extensive and everybody has to make this decision for themselves. but this is the only thing that's out there right now that if you do have mild cognitive impairment, if you are at the beginning, that could help you. >> could this be the start of other drug companies saying,

hey, this is could be the start? >> i think so. people are using the word "game-changer. they're hope more companies will say let's invest because the investments of the past have yielded nothing. now they're saying, okay, maybe there is hope. and hope is a big thing. it's a game changer. hope is a game changer. >> hope is >> hope is a game changer. >> maria, thank you. you will come back in the fourth hour, right? >> i will come back in the third hour >> i had to lead with the fourth. >> we will talk about menopause in the fourth. i think al and craig should come for that. >> absolutely. >> we're here for the alzheimer's conversation in the third hour >> okay. when we come back in this hour, amazon prime day part 2 deals. adriana is back with the adriana is back with the bargains to tch for and all ofwa - you ok? - there's a flex alert today so i'm'm mentally y preparing r ththe power ououtage. oh, wellll we can hehelp stop e becacause we're e gonna reduducr enenergy use f from 4-9pm.m. - what nowow? - i ststepped on a a plug. oh that't's my bad..... unplugg.

executive producer, no stranger to the hit show's two decades worth of drama we have the former president and creative director of j. crew who can now add the title of "real house wife" to her resume. andy, season 14. >> season 14. >> is every season like, oh, my gosh, it's a new baby? >> this really is a new baby because we have taken a beloved member of the housewives franchise and totally rebooted it with a group of fresh, energetic, fashionable, aspirational, brilliant women. jenna at the forefront. >> how did you get jenna to do it. >> i mean, it's incredible we had a few come to jesus conversations. and jenna went in, and i'm so glad she did because she is a brilliant real housewife. and the show is wonderful. for people that always loved the

housewives, this gives people what they love about the show, but it's fresh, new, it's funny and it's new york. >> so everyone has a vibe about them, jenna, on the show sometimes there is a funny one, the ditsy one, the mean you. which one are you? >> i think i'm the old one. >> the old one >> i didn't mean so. i was more reserved. i was nervous. it's intense. >> i'm the cold one. that's funny >> i think i get more vulnerable i cry. i laugh. i do everything you think i wouldn't do. >> now, let me ask you, why did you say yes? i know andy is very convincing, but aside from the charm, what made you say yes >> two things. i think the franchise has been really beloved it feels like a part of new york i remember when it first came out and i was so excited about it

this time they were bringing on a totally different group. this was not about doing what they did before. >> you mean one person in. >> i felt like it was a total change-up and the cast is diverse in age and look and feel and style and personality. and that, to me, was a big game changer in terms of the show. >> when you are choosing, are you the guy? do you go yes, no, yes, no. >> there is a team i'm on it. it is a great team, and we have been doing it for a while. and in doing -- look, we wanted everything that jenna said we also wanted a group i think when you watch the show on sunday night on bravo and then peacock when it premiers, you are going to see a cohesive group. and i think it was a, you know, bringing out a new group of real housewives of new york it was a tough thing to reboot but we did it, and the group is really something else. >> i just remembered suddenly something kathy said to me a long time ago. >> can i have more wine? >> she said -- >> can i have more wine? >> she said, it is not about you being a great personality. she used to say this about me

and her. she always said it's about what's in between. it's about the space in between. what's the vibe like of the housewives >> i think the thing i found most interesting is you go into it thinking you know someone what happens is you very clearly see quickly that you don't know people and what you assume and what you expect are not what you find. >> what's interesting is jenna is now seeing the episodes for the first time so she's now seeing what her friends said about her behind her back. >> do you still like them? >> yes, some of them. >> wait. now all these celebs love watching the housewives. we recently had jon hamm on the show let's take a look at what he said about the housewives. >> i read something very interesting about you this morning, jon hamm, and it surprised me i heard you like "the real housewives" franchise. is that correct or that is faux news >> no, that's real

i would say yes. >> which ones are you into >> well, i'm a jersey man. i'm a vanderpumper i'm a beverly hillsian we'll see what this new new york thing is all about. >> that's right. jon hamm is up for the ride. >> so many celebs come on your show and talk about this who is the biggest celeb >> rihanna's fandome of bravo and the housewives still blows me away. >> i'm shocked but also jennifer lawrence and i think michelle obama said that. >> yes, she dabbles. yes. >> okay. we can't wait. by the way, catch the season premier of "the real housewives of new york city" sunday night 9:00 p.m. eastern on our sister network, bravo as andy pointed out so well, streaming on peacock. >> yes totes. you looked great you killed it with shania. >> thank you i'm so glad you didn't wear that pink outfit
