>> after weeks of growing anticipation not to mention dollar signs someone hit the powerball jackpot. the winning ticket was sold at a convenience store in downtown los angeles. the third highest ever. the lump sum amount a cool $580 million but after federal taxes that drops to an estimated $325 million but good news for the yet-unnamed powerball winner california doesn't tax on lottery winning. what has been the buzz been around the city? >> reporter: you know, i'm very disappointed. they don't call us the golden tate for not a good reason, clearly we're pretty lucky considering just in november we had the largest powerball jackpot winner ever, just about 30 miles from downtown los angeles where the latest billionaire has essentially been born, someone bought that winning ticket atlas palmitas

mini market. it's creating a lot of buzz. the winning ticket was finally sold here in california and it wasn't just that one winner who got lucky, seven others in california matched all five numbers not the powerball, they walked away with $1 million. that will get taxed. california does not take taxes from your winnings, so hey, everyone wins here. >> dana, let's get to some context here. number crunching, the most expensive hotel in the u.s. is the penthouse at the palms casino in las vegas, $100,000 on the night on the left there. the winner could live there for about nine years. the winner could also get around in style with enough money to buy 1800 fully loaded mercedes g-wagons.

on the right you could order soup salad and breadsticks for half the population of california. >> not bad. i'll take the breadsticks. >> dana, what you would do? >> take the breadsticks. me and my best friend have this pact going, whoever wins the lottery we're going to build a compound somewhere and invite our favorite friends. in maui. >> i think we'd like to be one of your friends, dana. is that fair in. >> you guys can join. >> amazing. this hour we're tracking the extreme weather. upending life from coast to coast. the scorching heat wave that's lasted for weeks is baking even more people today than yesterday. today more than 85 million people are under heat alerts from florida to the west coast.

northern california is under heat alerts today and until now that part of the golden tate had been spared from the worst of the temperatures. marissa parra is in coral gables, florida. today's forecasted to be the 40th straight day of a heat index over a hundred in miami. how is this streak of extreme heat affecting people and the climate there? >> reporter: i mean, listen, you saw that map just now, it's hot all over the south. i just got back from phoenix a couple of days ago and this is different type of heat, whether you're talking about dry heat or the humid heat in miami. in phoenix it was getting upwards of 118 degrees. they broke a record. by the way, we're breaking a record of how many times we're breaking records of how many records are being broken. in phoenix, they just hit a record for the most amount of consecutive days of temperatures over 110 degrees.

that's not the heat index that's the straight temperature. we're not just talking about people feeling the brunt of it, animals, we just a saw a woman in miami walking her dog, she had to pick up her dog off the hot asphalt and carry her dog. when it comes to the climate here in florida we talked about taking a dip in the water to cool off that's not happening in the gulf of mexico or on the shores here, the water is shallow so it's heating up. there are concerns that can have not ornl the marine life but the coral reefs. the water is heating up. lot of concerns of what this heat is doing. >> affecting so many facets here. bill, more people are under heat alerts now than this time just yesterday, how much worse can it

get. >> reporter: 105 in the shade in miami and coral gables, area, impressive for her. i'd be a puddle. heat alerts going from california to florida as we mentioned. the hottest that i can find so far little rock and montgomery, both feel in the shade like a 110 degrees. that's the humid. the dry heat, right around 100 in el paso, that streak continues. phoenix, around 110. we won't break a few record highs today. phoenix easily do it. same with tucson, vegas will be close. this is just prolonging this excessive above-average stuff. this time of year if you're above average you're near record highs. this is typically one of the hottest weeks of the year from coast to coast. vegas should break their record

tomorrow. into next week, it doesn't change much. right through the weekend, vegas 115 to 111. you drop to 109. this is the sad state of affairs for all of next week, all of the way through the end of next week, much of the country is going to be baking in the sun with above-average temperatures. for a loft people fall can't come soon enough. >> thank you both so much. the family of an american soldier being detained in knot cree said they are worried for his safety. army private travis king ran into the country during a tour of a korean border village on tuesday. the u.s. has reached out to north korea but hasn't gotten any response. matt bradley is in seoul, south korea, for us. we're learning more about king's legal issues in south korea as a

soldier, what can you tell us. >> reporter: he's detained for at least one or two assaults. he wasn't charged in either of those. he was serving prison time in a south korean jail while a serving u.s. soldier, a curious little conundrum, but he wasn't serving that for an assault. during one of those assaults he was placed in a police car, he erupted in anger, cursing at the police officers and then he started kicking the car, he incurred about $500 in damage. he was fined $5,000 instead of paying that fine, he made the choice to serve prison time in lieu of actually paying. he served 48 days. he was released july 10th about a week before he then decided to join that guided tour that took him up to the border of north korea and that's when he made that bold move to dash across

the border presumably into north korean custody for now his whereabouts are unknown. but the legal proceedings before this might have tipped the balance. he was going move over into north korea. we heard from u.s. government officials just today he was almost certain to face further punishments once he got back stateside to fort bliss, texas. we don't know what his motives were. >> travis king's uncle and grandfather have spoken with nbc news, what are they saying about this whole thing? >> reporter: the overriding expression we've been getting from the family is shock and surprise not just because this young man decided to throw himself over the border with north korea, that's shocking behavior even for the most troubled of young people, but they're surprised by those legal

details that i just mentioned, the run-ins with the police and he was drinking and partying. lot of the ins ents all happened late at night at bars and nightclubs. he didn't drink or smoke and spent a lot of time reading the bible here. might have been leading a different life here in south korea than he was in the u.s. we spoke with his uncle. here's what he said. >> i want to know what was going on in his mind because that -- i can't see him doing that. i'm praying for him. i hope he comes home soon. to start back over. >> reporter: so, again, a lot of surprise from these family members, they just didn't know this young man, their son. guys? >> matt bradley for us in seoul. matt, thank you. turning now to our financial headlines. tesla has issued another recall and you'll soon be able to buy groceries with the wave of your

the days of pass word sharing on netflix are over. but the new crackdown doesn't seem to be hurting the company's bottom line. julia the pass word sharing crackdown seems to be paying off. >> yes, they've introduced page sharing. to then be added as additional paying member. we have seen far more subscriber additions than anticipated.

they added 6 million. one thing to note, though, is that revenue hasn't been growing as fasth as expected. some disappointments when it comes to revenue growth. >> parents in a bind, you know, if you have more than one kid, you can buy two subscriptions. talk about the hollywood writers and the actors strike, is that impacting netflix as well. >> yes, of course, every studio, anyone who creates content is being impacted. co-ceo of netflix said he wants this to be resolved as quickly as possible. they understand how hard a strike can be and have big impacts on the whole family. in terms of the actual impact on netflix it hasn't impacted the

content but how much money they're spending on content. we're going to see them spending a lot less in this current quarter because they're not producing things because of the actors strike as well. in the future you'll start to impact the shows they're rolling out. they have flexibility and a backlog of content. one of the biggest entertainment events of the year is happening right now in san diego, we're talking about comic-con. it's an annual event celebrating comics, movies, not much as starpower this time around because of the actors and writers strike. jay gray, comic-con is known for its panels where they promote their biggest movies and shows. who will not be there this year because of these strikes? >> reporter: you won't see in of the major stars here and that's

frustrating for some. a big of a different show but it's no less enthusiastic. this is opening day. take a look at the convention center here. it's packed. people are lined up for miles outside trying to get in. it's going to be over 130,000 fans here. many of them in costume. their favorite superheroes, anime comic book heroes, all of the costumes you'd expect to see and for me anyway 20% that i actually know who they are. it's going to be frustrating for some they won't be able to see those stars. but what you hear from the veterans here, they really enjoy it that way at least for a year to kind of get back to the roots the comic roots of this international pop festival, should be a lot of fun. it's four days long. that's it for now. i'll show it back to our

media. he was suspended from sin stagram back in 2021 for spreading misinformation on covid-19. ali, remind our viewers about what mr. kennedy had said in the past. >> reporter: look, he has made in the past racist and antisemitic comments where he made comments about the fact that covid-19 was somehow engineered to not impact jewish people, he's denied saying that and walked those comments back and he said in congress under oath he's never said anything racist. nevertheless the focus of this hearing frankly was more on the witness himself, especially from democrats than the general theme of censorship. that was touched on by republicans. this exchange with congressman debbie wasserman schultz was

part of a larger exchange during this hearing and one point she wanted to censure kennedy from being able to publicly testifying. this is why. mr. kennedy, your bizarre unproven claim echoes that same slander of jews and chinese avoided a deadly illness. you do see that, yes or in. >> you're misstating. >> reclaiming my time. mr. chairman, i'd like ten seconds back. >> you're slandering me incorrectly. what you're saying is dishonest. >> reporter: how this man who's challenging biden for the democratic nomination, although he has a very, very long shot is sparring with people from within his party here on capitol hill. >> ali, watching that hearing

fact that massachusetts has its own medical exception law and no confusion around it. we heard from a woman who had to travel across state lines to receive abortion care. this is what she told the court. >> having a third, realizing that pregnancy wasn't going to end with another toddler running around my house. i needed another abortion and we're going to have to leave texas and how are we going to do that? >> the state is arguing that the plaintiffs don't have standing. while happened to them is tragic and is in the past, any future harm would be hypothetical. they're sags the blame is misplaced and it's the fault of the doctor's. some of the consequences here for these doctors who violate this state law, they face $100,000 fine, up to life in

prison and their license revocation, so the judge right now is deciding, going to decide once she gets this case to issue this temporary injunction or to dismiss the case altogether. >> not small consequences. lot of eyes on this one. thank you so much. july is disability pride month recognizing the achievements and experiences of people with disabilities. it's also an opportunity to shine a spotlight on the advances that are helping the community. for a long time clothes weren't designed for wide-ranging needs for people with disabilities but that is changing. now even popular fashion lines and retailers are designing adaptive clothing lines. >> reporter: for mindy, clothing was always a choice of joy, she enjoyed her work in fashion industry but her son was born with a rare form of muscular dystrophy. her perspective changed. oliver struggled to get dressed in the morning. >> for oliver it was a daily reminder of what he couldn't do.

anymore? any major change in behavior. they used to want to be with friends, they're withdrawing. you're noticing a change in behavior. if you're noticing any major, trust your gut and talk to them about it. you might get some information that's really important to have. >> i wonder, the e.r. is not always the best place for someone to go, right, and we know that e.r. hospitalizations have increased in the past, 15% higher in april, 24% higher in october, those are some seasonal trends. what are some other ways people can receive access to mental health counselling? >> we don't want to go the e.r. as our primary but if we're afraid for safety it might be our best and fastest option. if you can't do that call your pediatrician if you have the availability, reach out to trusted counselors at school if that's available to you.

talk to your friends, chances other people are in need of the same thing. there are resources that we don't think of but we can lean into. >> so important. thank you so much. if you're watching this struggling or considering suicide help is always available, you can call or text the national suicide prevention lifeline at 9-8-8. switching gears now n today's daily health, good news for people who can't stop biting their nails or picking at their skin. >> a new study, a simple technique called habit replacement. how exactly does habit replacement work and who might it actually help? >> i think what makes this really brilliant is how easy it

is to do. for people picking their nails and biting their cheek. take your palm here, every time you have an urge to bite your nails just do something like this. lightly stroke your paul, another way, take two fingers and tap it to your thumb. if you have a lot of arm hair stroke the arm hair gently. you don't want to put too much pressure, because if you do you can scratch yourself and cause an infection. any time you have the urge to do one of those things like bite your nails, try to do that instead. >> sounds like the center of that is mindfulness. >> i used to bite my nails as a kid. really badly. why does some people like me struggle with that more than other people. >> most people who do this start young as a child and continue into adulthood.

kate, some people do it because they get bored and they use it as something to do to occupy their mind. some use nail biting to cope with emotion. some people seem to do from being bored or overstimulated. don't know what's causing >> it really insightful for many who struggle with this. thank you so much for your time. that's valuable for someone out there. there's much more news ahead. >> you're watching "nbc news daily".

by now you've likely heard or experienced travel nightmares. they're going on across the country. people getting stuck on layovers. some people not even getting to their destinations. if you have a beef with an airline, uncle sam might be able to help. chris krk hmura is going to show us how to open a federal case and what you might get out of it. let's look at how it works when you gripe to the government. before you start, collect your thoughts and documents. write up a condensed time line of events. then add in a narrative that explains where the airline dropped the ball, how it impacted you, and what you expect now. writing down your saga is important, because the d.o.t.

only takes airline complaints in writing, either by mail with a letter to this address or online. in fairness, the d.o.t. also takes compliment about airline service, though as you can imagine, very few people take time to send in a positive review when all goes well. the online form is simple, your name, airline, travel dates and so on. there's a small box to explain the situation, limited to 3,000 characters. and finally, submit. what happens next? government reps will investigate and ask the airline for its take. the d.o.t. says it requires airlines to acknowledge consumer complaints within 30 days of receiving them. you can let our response team know is the airlines aren't required by law to respond to us. >> good tip. thank you, chris. if you're looking for something fun to do today, the santa clara county parks department is hosting a pop-up
