captioning sponsored by cbs >> glor: getting out. >> this storm just has a different feel. >> glor: with all of florida in the hurricane's path, highways are clogged, gas is in short supply, shelters are filling up. irma's already taken a deadly toll in the caribbean. >> the whole-- everybody-- barbuda is just gone. >> mason: also tonight, the hack. 143 million americans had their personal information exposed. >> really can't get worse than this for consumers. >> mason: hillary clinton on debating with donald trump lurking behind her. >> it was so discombobulating. >> go! >> mason: and steve hartman with a football team that's undefeated against hurricanes.

>> nothing will stop the way we work as a family. it's amazing. this is the "cbs evening news." >> glor: good evening. i'm jeff glor in miami. anthony mason is in new york. and tonight one of the largest evacuations in u.s. history is reaching a critical point. more than 2.5 million people live in mandatory evacuation zones in georgia and florida, and highways are jammed as people head north to escape the worst of irma. this is what the hurricane did in the caribbean-- home after home destroyed. >> mason: irma has sustained winds of 155 miles an hour, and now the forecast models seem to agree, south florida will take a brutal hit this weekend. the entire state may face hurricane-force winds. late today, the national weather service tweeted, "this is as real as it gets. nowhere in the florida keys will be safe. you still have time to

evacuate." >> glor: we will have the latest on irma's path in just a moment, but first, let's get to our team of correspondents. we begin with mark strassmann in miami beach, which is strangely quiet after so many people left. mark. >> reporter: south florida's last-minute evacuees stampeded into gridlock on the florida turnpike. traffic stood still for miles. shelters overflowed with pets and people. at this miami high school, among 40 shelters in the area, more than 1,000 people were turned away. >> wait in line. the buses will be picking you up. we will find you guys places to be safe, okay. >> reporter: people stood in line to buy propane, water and food. a storm of price gouging has hit the state, and florida attorney general pam bondi called out some companies by name. >> 7-eleven, come on. this isn't the time to make a buck. this is the time to help your fellow citizens. >> reporter: miami-dade county has ordered almost 700,000 people to evacuate, including

shari schwartz. she worried what she may come back to. >> i'm really afraid. i am. i have to be honest. i'm afraid that... there might not be much. >> reporter: really? it's that worrisome? tony and rachel coddington will ride out irma in their condo. they live on the 15th floor of this miami high-rise with a three-week supply of food, hurricane shutters, and a great view of the storm when it barrels through here. >> i'm not sure if that's going to be a good thing or a bad thing but we'll definitely see what's happening. >> reporter: was it a tough call? >> very tough call. you know, i want nothing but safety for my wife and our dog. and i think we can manage to a degree, but it is scary. >> reporter: it's friday night in south beach these sidewalks should be packed with people, but take a look. this place is closed for business. jeff, anyone in irma's path here should be in a safe place by

noon tomorrow. >> glor: mark strassmann, thank you. meteorologist craig setzer with our cbs station in miami, wfor, is tracking irma. craig. >> reporter: jeff, here's the latest this evening. the latest advisory at 5:00. showing winds still at 155 miles an hour. now, the category 4 here is a little deceiving because the speed only has to increase by five miles an hour to make it category 5 again. so it's right on the edge of category 5. here is the wind field, that red area there. that's the hurricane-force winds, and inside of that is the core, the worst part of the hurricane, the eyewall. that's the most destructive part. now, the forecast track shows the storm battering the cuban coast through the night tonight, through the day tomorrow, and then it comes to a key turn right there starting to move north toward the florida keys. the latest advisory is calling for strengthening, category 5 going into the keys some time

during the early-morning hours on sunday. and then after that, it's to the north. this is the sunday 2:00 p.m. time frame, closest approach to south florida, miami. any shift to the east could bring that destructive core right into the metropolitan areas. then the rest of the state still under the gun. it's up in the tampa area, where there's increasing concern for storm surge there. orlando, the wind threat, and finally, it begins to wind down. and, jeff, the keys have not been hit by a category 5 hurricane since 1935, and that was catastrophic. category 5 hurricanes are very, very rare. >> glor: craig setzer from wfor, thank you. the island of barbuda all but wiped out by hurricane irma is now in the path of hurricane jose, another category 4 storm. barbuda was home to about 1,600 people. laura bicker of our partner network bbc news was there today. >> reporter: the island of barbuda was once a caribbean paradise. now it is lost.

hurricane irma has reduced it to rubble. the ruins lie scattered, torn, and ripped apart. having survived the worst storm in living memory and knowing another is on the way, people are exhausted, hungry, and just desperate to leave. >> the whole-- everybody here. barbuda is just gone. >> we're not coping. we're definitely not coping. >> reporter: the prime minister has traveled from neighboring antigua to provide some reassurance. >> be patient. we're going to get you all out. >> reporter: he knows this is a race against time before hurricane jose arrives in just a few hours. we heard him haggling for every boat, helicopter, or plane to help with the evacuation. >> can it land here, though? >> reporter: but fear starts to spread that not everyone will get out in time. >> don't worry. >> reporter: this woman has just been told she doesn't have a place on the next boat. the sheer horrifying scale of the devastation here means that barely a building is salvageable.

that means that the whole island will have to be rebuilt, and the government has already admitted, it simply doesn't have the money. the fragments of people's lives now lie in ruins. they can only hope that one day they will once again call this island home. but for now, they must leave by any means possible, including this towed barge. laura bicker, bbc, for cbs news, barbuda. >> glor: laura bicker, thank you. just south of miami is coral gables, population 50,000. some have chosen to ride out the storm there aboard boats in canals. we checked in on them with police chief ed hudak. >> i don't know if there's anything on the water that's going to be fully safe. now, this is four times larger than something that came through here 25 years ago. >> glor: all the boats you see here right now are normally not here. what people have done is, is tucked them in and tied them up along the mangroves to try to protect them. those mangroves should provide a

natural barrier, and they think the boats will be okay. unfortunately, many people have also made the decision to stay on those boats. why are you staying? >> i think we'll be all right. >> reporter: you think you'll be all right. >> yeah. we have big water tanks in the boat. thousand gallons of water in the boat to keep it down. we'll sit here just happy as a fish. >> reporter: not recommended. >> yeah, i know. >> if they choose to stay and this is a tough decision that they're going to have to make, there is going to be a time, in this area that we're in, that it could be up to 72 hours before and if they yell for help, we can't provide it. which is why in part we give those evacuation orders. >> glor: it is one of the heartbreaking realities here for police, that once winds reach the sustained level of 45 miles per hour they cannot and they will not respond to emergencies until that wind goes back down again. some of florida's first responders are just back from another devastating storm and adriana diaz has more on that.

>> reporter: as hurricane harvey barreled through texas, units from florida's urban search-and-rescue rushed towards the storm. over five days, they saved nearly 900 people. >> come here, princess. >> reporter: and led pets, and even a horse to safety. >> that seemed to be the most catastrophic damage i have seen with a hurricane. ( applause ) >> reporter: on tuesday, richard broccolo and his team returned from harvey to a hero's welcome in orlando, and potentially an even worse storm, irma. you are on the front lines. you know what these disasters can be like. how do you feel knowing it can come right here? >> you see it. you own everything, this could happen to my house. i'm home with my family and, you know, they understand if i'm not. >> reporter: broccolo and his colleagues are packing, getting ready to battle another hurricane. broccolo says he'll take this to work-- a gift he received after returning from hurricane harvey from his four-year-old son. >> "daddy, i missed you.

i love you. daddy saves me." >> reporter: how does that make you feel? >> a lot of emotions come up when you see it, you know. >> reporter: 40 responders from this area in central florida are standing by. they'll be given just six hours' notice before they're launched, and the storm is expected to arrive here sunday. jeff. >> glor: adriana diaz in orlando. today, florida's governor held off on opening southbound lanes to northbound traffic on interstates because he needed those lanes for trucks delivering supplies, including gasoline. david begnaud now on the dwindling supply. >> reporter: if you're running late, it may be too late. >> they got gas! >> reporter: gas stations operating on fumes are shutting off the pumps. >> no, we have gas for four more cars, and then we have to close. >> reporter: on south miami beach this afternoon, this texaco was the only place to buy fuel. how much fuel do you have? >> less than a quarter tank. >> reporter: and dana sappington and her husband, larry were the last ones to get it.

>> living right, i guess. >> reporter: heading out of miami is michelle pineda, who is evacuating to tampa. >> all the gas station in addition miami are empty but as far as getting here so far, so good. so hopefully it stays this way. >> reporter: here's the deal-- a lot of the stations that had long lines yesterday are clear today because they've either run out of fuel or the people who owned the stations have just packed up and closed shop. today was nothing like yesterday, when this man had to push his car to the pump. he drove 70 miles looking for fuel. nearly 40% of stations in miami, and a quarter of those as far north as tallahassee, are out of gas. they're getting help as fuel tankers are arriving by police escort. florida governor rick scott: >> gas stations in evacuation zones, we need you to stay open as long as you can. we will arrange police escorts for your employees so they can get out safely. >> reporter: if you are planning to evacuate tonight and you're headed up the florida turnpike toward orlando, you're going to want to stop by here, the pompano service plaza. it's backed up behind me, but

they've got 32 pumps and things are running smoothly. in fact, i'm looking. there's no real line right now, jeff. and the plaza tells us they will stay open as late as they can, maybe until midnight, up until the florida patrol says it's time to shut it down. >> glor: david begnaud, thank you. let's go back to anthony mason in new york. >> mason: thanks, jeff. predicting damage from a hurricane is a guessing game, of course. a lot depends on which part of the storm hits land. lonnie quinn, chief weathercaster at our cbs station in new york is here to explain. lonnie. >> reporter: you bet, anthony. i have to tell you, first and foremost, every inch of a hurricane can be different and every hurricane is different so what i want to do is take a look specifically at irma, because the bulk of this storm-- it's enormous-- the bulk of it has tropical storm force winds. they stretch out from the eye 210 miles on either side of the eye. inside of this you'll find a band of hurricane-force winds, and this is where those winds are sustained above 74 miles per hour.

this band extends 70 miles from the eye. and then outside of the eye itself, the eye is actually where you find nice, peaceful air. but outside of the eye is the eyewall, and this is where you find the strongest winds that irma has to offer, her 155-mile- per-hour winds are confined to an area just 35 miles from the eye. so wherever that eye makes landfall, that is where you are going to get the most devastating damage. keep in mind, you get a stronger gust anywhere within the storm. those are sustained winds. now, it also matters what side of the storm you're on. okay, the worst part of the storm is the front right quadrant, and that's because the peak winds are made worse by the forward progress of the storm. and this is also the part of the storm that's going to spawn the most tornadoes. on the left-hand side of the storm, the winds are going to be a little bit less, but i mean a little bit less, and that's because you're not factoring in the forward motion of the storm. the other big concern, we have to spend some sometime with this, is storm surge. i think it's going to be huge because the rotation of the winds, the front half of the storm, is going to surge water on the east coast of florida. and i just think it's going to

be a big problem, anthony. >> mason: lonnie quinn of wcbs, thanks, lonnie. at least 58 people were killed and hundreds injured overnight in mexico's most powerful earthquake in decades. it measured 8.1 and was centered off the southwest coast. but it shook buildings and knocked out power in mexico city more than 600 miles away. mexico is also bracing for hurricane katia, a category 2 storm. it's expected to bring floods, landslides and devastating winds to mexico's gulf coast saturday morning. coming up on the "cbs evening news," advice for the 143 million victims of the equifax megahack. later, steve hartman with the comeback team of the year. comeback team of the year.

>> mason: the massive cyber attack on the credit report company equifax has triggered a lawsuit and calls for a congressional investigation. hackers stole the personal information of 143 million americans. chip reid is following this. >> reporter: equifax keeps track of the credit ratings of american consumers, which means its database is a massive treasure trove of personal information, including birth dates, social security numbers, and addresses. avivah litan is a cyber-security analyst. >> this is basically the irma of data breaches. it's a 10 on a scale of 1-10. >> reporter: for the hackers, it's like finding a gold mine. >> they can take out a mortgage. they can file tax refunds. they can file for social security benefits. you name it. they can take all your benefits away. >> reporter: what should your average consumer do? >> consumers need to be hypervigilant and monitor their accounts. >> i apologize to every affected consumer.

>> reporter: equifax c.e.o. rick smith posted this statement on the company's website: >> while we've made significant investments in cyber-security, we have more to do, and we will. >> reporter: maybe so, but this is the third major hack of equifax in less than two years. , it makes you wonder, did they do as much as they could have done? >> reporter: critics also wonder why equifax waited six weeks to announce the hack, and they want to know why three senior executives sold $1.8 million in equifax stock soon after the hack was discovered. equifax said the executives did not know about the breach at the time. the perpetrators of the hack have not yet been identified, but some experts say these massive hacks are often done by international cyber criminal organizations who then sell the information to russia or china for millions of dollars. anthony. >> mason: chip reid. thanks, chip. and when we come back, hillary clinton on an uncomfortable moment in the debates. table table moment in the debates.

>> mason: hillary clinton spoke with cbs "sunday morning" host jane pauley in her first tv interview about her new book, "what happened," published by simon & schuster, a division of cbs. jane asked the former presidential candidate about an uncomfortable moment during the debates when donald trump got a bit too close for comfort. >> it was so... discombobulating and so while i'm answering questions, my mind is going, "okay, do i keep my composure? do i act like a president? am i the person that people can trust in the end to make hard decisions, or do i wheel around and say 'get out of my space! back up, you creep!'" well, you know i didn't do the latter, but i thought, you know, people say, "we don't know her." and i think my composure, which i have developed over years being in the public eye, has well equipped me for being a leader because you should keep

your cool and you should be steady and predictable. but i think in this time we're in, particularly in this campaign, you know, maybe i missed a few chances. >> mason: jane pauley's interview with hillary clinton will air this week on "cbs sunday morning." troy gentry of the country music duo montgomery gentry, was killed in a helicopter crash today in new jersey. ♪ come from, there's a pickup truck ♪ >> reporter: gentry was to perform tonight, along with his partner, eddie montgomery, who was not aboard the helicopter. troy gentry was 50. the country music world is also mourning the death of the gentle giant don williams. ♪ living on tulsa time >> reporter: his 17 number-one country hits including "tulsa time" earned him a spot in the country music hall of fame. don williams was 78.
