from coast to coast. and kicking it with kelsea. ♪♪ >> we're rolling out the welcome matt for kelsea ballerini and our first concert on ourza todfriday, augu1, 2023. from nbc news, this is ay" with savannah guthrie and hoda kotb. from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> what a great friday crowd. good morning. nice to have you along with us. hoda is back on monday. we will start with this breaking news out of hawaii. it is devastating. at least 55 people have been killed by wildfires and a high number of people still missing. this death toll will likely continue to rise. >> the state's governor saying late last night, quote, when you see the full extent of destruction, it will shock you,
7:03 am
adding it appears like a bomb went off. >> while the fires are mostly contained, the rescue operations are far from over. experts say theory -- the rebuilding process could take years. we have complete coverage, including a live interview with the mayor of maui county. let's start with miguel almaguer who got a first-hand look at the devastation there. >> reporter: good morning. as the death toll continues to rise now at 55, authorities are concerned they will find even more bodies. by one estimate, upwards of a thousand people could still be missing. the crews here on the ground are winning some battles and losing others. on the island streets where residents made harrowing escapes through raging walls of fire. >> let's go! >> reporter: so many others did not. this wildfire now the second deadliest in modern history. >> i do not know what the final number is going to be, and it's going to be horrible and tragic. it is a community.
7:04 am
so the amount of loss is incredible. >> reporter: in the skeletal and now desolate landscape, without power, internet or even radio coverage, officials say they have no way to determine how many are still missing. authorities say hundreds of homes have been lost. a growing tally that's personal for families like patrick sullivan's. how do you describe the emotions that you are feeling right now? >> well, right here it's pretty tough. but we'll be okay. >> reporter: from the air and on the ground, the national guard is helping crews battle at least three wild fires still burning on maui. the hardest hit areas still impossible to access. kirkman grieving the loss of his home and his father's ashes. >> found some of these old pictures, and i said, i should take a picture of it because it is all i have now. >> reporter: even boats in the
7:05 am
harbor were consumed by the inferno. victims say they were running as fast as the flames. many jumped right into this harbor to save their lives. while the ocean provided an escape route for some. >> is anybody still out here? it's time to go! it's time to go! >> reporter: not all who reached the shores survived. residents say they found bodies floating in the water, caught with almost no warning. others perished in their homes or were trapped in vehicles. an entire community surrounded by loss, with one sign of historic hope, the town's famous banyan tree is the only landmark left standing. after 80-mile-per-hour winds fan the initial flames, initially the weather conditions have improved as of today, but now they're focused on the missing.
7:06 am
savannah, back to you. >> miguel, thank you. we're joined now by the mayor of maui county. good morning to you, sir. >> aloha, savannah. >> aloha, and i know the aloha spirit is alive and well, but what a trauma you have been through. can you just share with everybody what you have seen, what the situation is right now in maui? >> certainly. we have seen devastation, destruction, immeasurable loss, loss of life, loss of historical places, properties, businesses. but i'm confident as a community and as a coming together we will rebuild. >> indeed. right now, though, you are still looking for the missing. the death toll stands at 55. is that a number you expect to rise? >> yeah. you know, i think that number could go up, according to those that have been doing the
7:07 am
recovery. our police department, the coast guard, the national guard, the different groups that are helping us here on the island. that is the number of people they found that are outside of the buildings. so we have not yet searched in the interior of the buildings. we're waiting for fema to help with that search, as they are equipped to handle the hazmat conditions of the buildings that have been burned. >> sir, can you paint the picture of the difficulty that you and first responders are facing right now. there is no power. there is no communications. you are on an island, literally. how difficult is the situation right now? >> well, that part of the island, what we call the west side in kaanapali, they're impacted by no power and, therefore, no water. they have no communication. no internet, no cell phone.
7:08 am
so that's the challenge. we have been sending people out. we have been sending crews out with supplies and water and tomorrow we will be stepping that up even more. an incredible amount of support has come from our federal partners, our state partners, as well as other counties and businesses. the entire community has come together. and people outside of our community have also reached out to us to offer assistance, donations. so we are going to take full advantage of the help we have been offered. and, again, right now, our focus is on finding any -- any missing persons. we want to reunite families. we want to give people information, whether their family member is at one of our shelters or whether they are among those that have perished. we need to get that information to our -- to our citizens. >> finally, sir, some local residents are saying they never heard of any of those sirens, those warning sirens that would
7:09 am
normally sound when a natural disaster is looming. do you know anything about that? do you think the siren system, the warning system, worked sufficiently? >> i think this was an impossible situation. the winds that hit us on that side of the island and, in fact, in other parts of the island in some areas got up to 80 miles an hour. some sustained between 45 and 60, 65. so everything happened so quickly. i can't comment on whether or not the sirens sounded or not, but i know that the fires came up so quickly and they spread so fast. there were some initial -- initially when there was a smaller fire, homes were evacuated. and, again, many, many people evacuated from their homes. we have 2,100 people in shelters on tuesday night.
7:10 am
so many people were sent to shelters. and that's not including the many visitors who sheltered in place at their hotels and hotel rooms in kaanapali was the fire had not gone to that area. but there was no power. >> such an unprecedented incident. so many people love maui, have so much affection and care what you are going through. thank you for your time. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> we'll hear from more of the survivors and the heroes, some of the doctors there on the front lines coming up. >> such a desperate situation there. the economy, for the first time in more than a year, inflation has picked up with consumer prices rising by 3.2% in july. what does it mean for your
7:11 am
wallet. here to explain is brian cheung. 3.2%. we know the fed's target rate is 2%. ticked over last month as well. what do you see in these numbers? give us the good news and the bad news? >> inflation tells us the rate in change in prices over the last year. and that number is dramatically better this time than it was in the summer of last year. now, for what it's worth, high inflation and positive figure you see on inflation means figures are still rising. albeit as a slower pace. food and housing, rent and mortgage payments remaining very expensive for americans. that's the reason why for the federal reserve, that will l rel continue. >> those are various housing and food that everybody feels. so the fed has been on this aggressive path of raising rates to try to bring down inflation obviously it's worked.
7:12 am
it's dramatically down from a year ago, as you mentioned what do you think the fed does now? will there be a rate hike? >> 3% is still above that now, for the federal reserve, the effort has been raising interest rates to deliberately slow the economy and bring the rate down. 3% is a good improvement but for the fed, they're looking at this and saying, it's not yet mission accomplished so could they again raise interest rates when they get to the next meeting, which is in september. it's possible. the markets say maybe for right now, but there is a lot of data between now and then. >> and it is a lagging indicator, too >> exactly. >> it's tricky brian, thank you very much. also this morning, new details on the deadly fbi raid on a home in utah.
7:13 am
agents shot and killed a man who they say made disturbing threats against the president and other officials. nbc's senior white house correspondent kelly o'donnell has the details now on how this encounter turned deadly. >> reporter: a review of this shooting is underway, conducted by a separate division of the fbi. talking to every officer and agent on scene and conducting forensics to determine how many shots were fired, including if the suspect fired his weapon, as we are learning more about what happened new details this morning about that fatal fbi shooting in utah. when the fbi came to arrest craig robertson for threatening to assassinate president biden, vice president harris and other officials. robertson was armed, a senior law enforcement official tells nbc news and he pointed his weapon at federal agents and did not comply with their commands this video recorded at the scene
7:14 am
early wednesday. robertson was shot and killed inside the entry of his home, nbc news has learned not far from where president biden was expected to arrive hours later. >> an agent fired back. >> reporter: the 75-year-old wood worker had graphic talks about attacks online former president trump's media platform truth social alerted authorities in march about the alarming nature of his threatening comments truth social has not responded on his accounts, robertson declared himself a maga trumper and described part of his arsenal as a democrat eradicator the fbi says robertson showed an intent to kill president biden and manhattan district attorney alvin bragg who is prosecuting the hush money case against mr.
7:15 am
trump. a senior law enforcement official tells me the agents do not like to release data on how many threats are out there because they say research shows publicity can draw out more copy cats savannah >> thank you. the supreme court has temporary blocked a deal with the maker of oxycontin about objections raised by the justice department. >> good morning, craig this deal would have limited how responsible the sackler family would be for the damage caused by opioids made by purdue pharma the government challenged that deal, and now the court will hear the argument out. a massive settlement for purdue pharma is on hold this morning
7:16 am
after the supreme court temporarily blocked the deal that would protect members of the sackler family for more on opoid-related lawsuits purdue pharma made oxycontin and a lot of money for the sackler family the drug bought in an estimated $35 billion for the company. using aggressive marketing tactics, millions of americans became addicted to the open i didn't do. sheryl lost her sons, hori and shawn. >> i lost my children. i lost two of my children. that's a life sentence in itself. >> reporter: such deals led to an avalanche of lawsuits the crisis dramatized on hulu's "dope sick." purdue pharma filed for bankruptcy in 2019 under the terms of the bankruptcy settlement, members of the sackler family would be shed ffuture lawsuits in exchange for $6 billion that could be used to settle opoid-related claims but the justice department says
7:17 am
they should not be able to use legal protections designed for debtors. it would leave in place a road map for wealthy corporations and individuals to misuse the bankruptcy system. >> what is the issue the supreme court wants to look at >> the supreme court wants to look at whether people who don't file nor bankruptcy but have some connection to a bankruptcy should get the benefit of a release. the bankruptcy court has done that here for the sacklers, and the supreme court is deciding whether that violate it is law. >> reporter: but for many families involved, there is a human toll to further delay. >> there are hundreds of families who have lost, hundreds and they just want it over >> purdue pharma says it is confident in the legality of the plan, and it is optimistic, it says, that the supreme court will uphold the court agreement. the court will hear oral arguments in the case in december, and it is expected to issue a ruling next year.
7:18 am
>> so everything is on hold until then >> yes and those families are still in phenomenal pain. >> thank you. >> thank you. let's get our first check of the weather on a friday morning. mr. roker, good morning. >> good morning to all of you. let's get our weekend started off. right now for our friends on the great lakes, showers and thunderstorms advance to the east we have a severe risk from minnesota all the way down to missouri we're talking about wind gusts of 60 miles an hour, damaging hail, tornadoes possible tomorrow they will track into the northeast. we're looking at heavy rain. and this may slow down some air travel and road travel because of flooding stretching from columbus all the way into new york we're looking at the greatest threat of winds and a squall line each hail possible tornadoes possible as well sunday the threat moves back into the mid-plains. a higher severe probably as we move on into the weekend but we are looking for heavy rain in the midsection of the country with about 3 to 5 inches

in depth today this morning, big changes on the way in the world of streaming. >> and if you are concerned about prices and passwords, you might not like it. >> not good news good morning, guys looks like password sharing crackdowns are here to stay. disney plus set to follow in the footsteps of netflix, who saw a boost in subscribers after launching its ban. and other streaming services appear ready to do the same. want to spend the weekend bing watching your favorite shows if you are sharing a password, disney announcing it's exploring ways to monitor password sharing. >> just sort of borrow it from those that can afford it. >> this comes months after netflix successfully pressed pause on sharing accounts. >> disney plus and hulu are two of the most popular. a lot of consumers like the content there.
7:40 am
>> netflix is tripping if they think i'm about to add a member. >> and despite some backlash -- >> this is horrible. >> -- business is booming. netflix added nearly six million subscribers after the crackdown. 60% of viewers have at least four streaming services. and an average household pays $54 for subscriptions monthly. now disney plus and hulu are scheduled to hike up their prices starting october 12th the stand-alone ad free version of disney plus expected to go up $3 to $13.99 a month and hulu will increase to $17.99 a month. with password sharing and price hikes, experts say it is only a matter of time before more streaming services join in. >> everyone is doing it. it is hard to ignore it. and eventually people will have to decide whether or not it is worth paying for the streaming
7:41 am
service that they're watching. >> all right so as we head into this next chapter of streaming wars, how can you make sure you are getting the best bang for your buck >> well, one of the things you do is download a subscription tracker. a lot of people don't know what it is they're paying for also try this. delete some of the apps and see which ones you actually use. and then the other option is to look at these subscriptions that have ads as well and if you are willing to watch a few ads, do that it starts to look like oldie worldy tv. >> i thinky should do les or somethi you know it's called cable. >> fair. >> that's a good point if you start paying attention to the apps that you don't use, you'd save a ton of money. >> for sure. >> stephanie, at least when you give us bad news, you do it with a smile. thank you, friend. >> you know what's always free roker. so far. >> i'm going to be my own bundle
7:42 am
>> enjoy. >> anyway, that doesn't sound right, does it unfortunately, it is the same old song down for our friends in the south. 68 million people. now, that's up about 60 million from yesterday because now the heat advisories are stretching up into the mid-plains today amarillo may set a record, new orleans, tampa, miami, brownsville, all within striking distance of the records. more of the same tomorrow from ashville, north carolina, orlando and miami as well into the northeast into the great lakes. we are looking at more temperate conditions so temperatures feel a lot better from the national hurricane center, the forecast update, 60% above normal chance of above normal activity expected the may outlook, storms 17 to 18, they upped that in august, that's because of all the abnormally warm waters in the atlantic due to climate change
7:43 am
6 to 11 hurricanes possible. major hurricanes 2 to 5 possible so we will be watching the atlantic very closely in the next several months. good friday morning. i'm meteorologist kari hall. our temperatures will reach into the mid 80s today, special in the south bay and inland east bay. it's going to heat up going into the weekend with our highs reaching into the upper 80s and then mid-90s by sunday. we stay in the mid-90s each day, leading into much of next week. but we are looking at still some mild weather in san francisco, low clouds and fog and that is your latest weather. guys >> just ahead, a sweet morning boost that will touch the hearts of any parent that's got a kid going off to college. >> they're speaking your language. >> also, joe fryer is standing by with the budget friendly option that is making a

7:48 am
>> that's right. they were hit hard by the pandemic now many buffets are trying to bounce back in a big way joe fryer looked into the reasons why. good morning. >> good morning. as we emerge from social distancing and constant hand sanitizing, seemed a little weird to stand in a buffet line, touching the tongs they just touched and then chowing down. but customers were craving value and variety, and they found it in the mountain range of food known as the buffet. buffets are like self-service gas pumps. but here the fuel is food. >> i love seafood. >> and filling up empty plates and stomachs. >> i'm gifted with a bottomless pit.fect for that. >> according to an entry market research company, last year so buffets are perfect for that. >> according to an industry market research company, last year buffets were a $5.5 billion industry, up 9% from the year before why are people returning to buffets?>> it'mily and it'dget.
7:49 am
>> golden coral boasts all you caat buffets for under $20 a person the chain's sales were up 14% last year. at home food prices rose more than 11% in that same period. >> you have a wonderful selection of items you are based on only one price you know it is going to cost yo >> serving up to get in and get out. >> budget-friendly buffets are serving up comfort food like mac and cheese and pizza so are high-end options like the ones in las vegas, focused on luxury dining. that includes wicked spoon. >> the buffet business after the pandemic has been amazing for us it is a real creative outlet for us as chefs to push the envelope for us. >> here it costs $74, and includes crab legs and more. >> well, i think there is something really thrilling about
7:50 am
seeing piles of food. >> lily jane says social media is feeding our appetite for buffets and our desire for experiences. >> what we saw when restrictions started to be lifted was that people had a lot of pent-up energy so they were really looking forward to going out and having fun and exploring. >> she says the pandemic was toughest on middle of the road buffets like sweet tomatoes, which closed 97 stores higher up the food chain, in queens, new york, at a place literally called the buffet, busi is fantastic.they even hav machine. >> we are trying to cater to a certain type of palate because the food speaks for itself, the customers keep coming back. >> her strategy, go for the seafood first. unlike me. >> i feel like i need to get fruit and salad. >> fruit salad? what are you doing >> the options, like the opinions, are endless.
7:51 am
so emerging from the pandemic, many buffets took extra precautions, masks, sneeze guards that did help ease fears and keep customers safe. one interesting note from robin. she says that buffets often serve comfort food when times are tough for families, especially with inflation over the last year, we could all use food for the soul. >> for me with the kids, go ahead. >> especially if you are on vacation. >> if there is a free buffet, have 17 pancakes if you like. >> joe, we have to say, congratulations to you >> i'm excited, too. we're moving the saturday show back to studio 1a. >> peter and joe, that is how you want to wake up on saturday. >> a news buffet. >> yes, there you go. >> how about a boost >> let's get to the morning boost. hoda is back on monday, guys

8:06 am
house calls. that's how everybody knows you there. tell me what you saw, what you encountered? >> which "there" are you talking about? >> the first day when you first came upon it. >> yeah. so the first day and, first of all, thank you for having me and covered the story here. this is like pretty intense moments for us, everyone in maui, and probably one of the biggest disasters to hit the whole islands of hawaii and the state. but the night before is when we started getting warnings that we had high wind advisories. and we got a lot of warnings in maui all the time, high surf advisory, flash flood warnings. we've even had warnings from north korea sending a bomb here potentially. so we had this warning that there might be some fires. we're used to those. we see brush fires all the time.
8:07 am
most people i heard were starting to evacuate, which was kind of rare. i have never seen that happen. but i think overnight, we just didn't hear anything from lahaina. in the morning when i woke up, i had no idea what was happening behind that. i thought behind my heart and gut to go out there and take a look. i know the roads were closed. i asked for some advice, and the mayor's office allowed us to go through with my mobile unit that i started a nonprofit called for the people. and i started getting text messages from the ems, paramedics and firefighters that there is bodies on the grounds, like lots. that was disturbing and surreal. they were like, doc, there is bodies in the er. they were like, no, we're stable. they evacuated a few people. but within an hour and a half, two hours, i got my nurses and team and somewhat closed my clinic but made it just open to anybody that needed it and made it free for the whole week for anybody that needed anything. when we went out there, i had no
8:08 am
idea what i was dealing with. when we first got there and got through, it was devastating. it felt like a war zone. it was still fresh. i could see trees burning. i could feel the smoke. i could feel the heat. and it was basically like another pandemic. to explain it, it was a ghost town. very apocalyptic. as our mobile unit was driving through, we started seeing some people come out of the wood work, like survivors. they came up to us, and i was like, can i help you. some needed medical attention and some were just like, i need water. i need food. they hadn't eaten for like a day. so that was providing some basic humanitarian stuff and providing food. and some people were in need of medical care, but it was shocking. itn't sin until the next and then i went bout like what we were dealing hereisland. well, i mean, dr, what the peoplere have been ugh is extraordi. what kind of care are you able to provide now?
8:09 am
i know that the resources are so scarce. >> yeah. so, i mean, initially our ems team and paramedic and fire department, everyone has just done an extensive job to evacuate the people and help the injured. as an er doctor, i was mentally ready for battle. i had stuff for wound care, burn care, iv fluids. but when i got there, i realized it was a lot of people that needed basic stuff. it was the people with chronic diseases that were going to become acute medical issues, people with seizure meds, hypertension. people just didn't have their medication. i just thought i would go there and be a good doctor and order their meds. i had no idea the pharmacies were gone. the other pharmacy that survived was closed. there was no electricity. i had no cell phone signal. i don't know. it was just kind of like a movie and it wasn't real and the patients i was dealing with just to make rapport and ask them,
8:10 am
how are you doing, have some bedside manner, ask them how was it, what happened and the stories they had kind of really hit hem. i have seen a lot of trauma as an er doc. i trained at ucla in a big trauma center. but to be here and be home and hear people's stories, it was devastating. and one or two i said can i share your story with people, and it kind of caught media's attention was just people telling me how they escaped. it reminded me of 9/11 where people were flying out of windows. they said the fire spread 30 seconds block to block to block. it is really tight. it is the smallest old, cutest community ever. and it was the capital of hawaii before it moved to honolulu. but that whole front street and that whole area just burnt down. and people ran to the water. they were jumping into the
8:11 am
ocean. they were paddling out to sea. this one girl said she held on to like some metal rod or something in the middle, like maybe like 30 yards out for like seven hours until she was able to come back in. and her friend was hanging on with her and her friend didn't survive. kind of like a titanic story of losing your friend next to you. pets, animals, everything. it is heart-breaking. >> very heart-breaking. you are doing incredible work out there by being a good doctor, but also being somebody sharing these stories and making sure they get heard so help can be on the way. i know it is the middle of the night there. thank you for your efforts and time. it is very much appreciated. >> thank you for having me. >> of course. our thoughts and our prayers with the folks helping there and all the folks who survived. but just hearing him describe the scene and what people have told him, it is hard for our folks to get their head around what's happening right now. >> he just painted a picture.
8:12 am
>> yes, he did. >> we need to wrap our arms around this community. it is devastated. so many people know it. maui, if you have been to hawaii, lahaina, people have such affection and love for this community. this community has given so much love to all of us. and it is time for us to give to them. >> we are going to, at some point here in the near future, let you know how you can help those folks there in hawaii. when we come back, we will take a bit of a turn. season 2 of "welcome to wrexham". >> and then we have an inspiring story. a young girl and a doctor bonded forever by her life-saving surgery when she was a little one. 16 years later, they are working side by side. there they are righght after ththis with morore of the m meat yourg loveves.
