this is a cbs news special report. deadly hurricane irma is carving a 300-mile path through the state of florida. the hurricane damaged homes and knocked out power to more than 4 million people. i'm charlie rose with norah o'donnell and gayle king in new york. every inch of florida has felt the impact of this storm. >> irma's center is spinning more than 60 miles north of tampa right now. overnight it was downgraded to a category 1 hurricane with top winds of 75 miles per hour but heavy rain is still falling from the gulf of mexico to the atlantic. >> irma caused significant damage in miami, and right now is headed for tallahassee. even atlanta is under a tropical storm warning. jeff glor is in st. pete. the center of irma came within 20 miles of his location last

night. jeff, good morning to you. >> reporter: gayle, good morning. so the winds have shifted now. yesterday they were coming from in front of where i am. now they're coming from behind. the surf is up behind us, winds still coming down significantly. the wind is blowing significantly. the rain coming down as well. we saw the worst of it here from about midnight until 2:00 a.m. but it is by no means over. you look out and tarps all over the roads here from tents that were up in this area along st. pete beach. we have, as far as i can tell, maintained power all of the night here. but when you look out there appear to be larger stretches where power is not on. irma has, as she moved up florida, moved more inland, and so raked more inland but also slowed down the speeds at least as she moved up.

the back side of the storm here, at least as far as we can tell even though it is raining, appears to be drier with not as much rain as there was last night when this first started but, again, many power outages, folks still staying off the roads. police and fire still not able to respond to calls as irma continues passing through the state of florida. norah? >> all right, jeff, thank you. hurricane irma is causing flooding in jacksonville, florida. the st. john's river jumped its banks overnight. the city is under a flood watch until late this evening. east of jacksonville in atlantic beach. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we're here on one of the barrier islands and you can probably hear the wind is definitely whipping up and it's not just the wind but take a look over here at some of the storm surge. it's some of the worst they've seen in the jackson area according to the national

weather service. i just got off the phone with the deputy city manager. he told me he was able to survey this area for the first time about an hour ago. he said most of the roads are impassable. he said power is out in most places. in fact, the communications center where they're located at city hall is being operated by generators, so that's the only reason they have power. he also said that the police station and city hall is experiencing flooding and some of the water is starting to come into their building right now. people are advised again to stay out of this weather because this is the worst that they've seen as far as winds gusting as high as 80 miles per hour. i'm sorry. it's hard to look at the camera right now this is without a doubt the worst we've seen it in jacksonville. i've heard someone say this morning who is from this area i can only imagine what they must have been dealing with in naples and tampa just because the wind

is so fierce. the rain is coming down so quickly and, again, storm surge is a major problem in this area. >> jerecka, thank you so much, and bravo standing upright and coherent. someone needs to get you a pair of goggles. thank you very much. the next major city in irma's path is tallahassee, the state capital, of course. more than 150 miles west of jacksonville. it's already been raining very hard for hours. don, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. i'm in a park in the center of tallahassee, florida state university and the state capitol buildings are that way. we're beginning to feel the effects of irma and a little bit of rain. it has intensified considerably and is only going to get worse here as the storm approaches. when we first started feeling the effects, by the way, the storm center was still over 400 miles away. that gives you an idea of the

scope of the monster. there are power lines right above me here and that's the real scare. last year when a hurricane came through, trees came down and took out power to thousands of customers. tallahassee is this beautiful old southern city with tree lined streets here. they have these gigantic live oaks with the spanish moss hanging down which, by the way, didn't come from spain. it isn't even moss but that's beside the point. a lot of the trees came down in the preceding hurricanes that seemed to afflict this area. there are power crews out right now trying to restore power to tens of thousands of customers who have already lost it and there are over 20,000 utility work e workers from other states staging in areas waiting to pour into florida to aid the millions of power customers who have already lost power and will lose power as this storm moves up north. by the way, tallahassee, the

capital city of just under 200,000 is elevated, 200 feet above sea level and 20 miles from the gulf of mexico. storm surge isn't really a concern here. the wind is the concern, but storm surge is a concern for the smaller little coastal towns there. charlie? >> don, thanks. flood warnings in several places outside the city of tampa. this area received several inches of rain overnight. david, good morning. >> reporter: charlie, good morning. the rain is blowing sideways in our face. tampa appears to have dodged a very big bullet. let me tell you how it apparently happened. instead of the storm tracking west, just riding the coast of western florida, it moved inland as it got toward us. the winds weakened but the storm picked up momentum. and what happened if there's a good side of the storm to be on, it's the western side, the side tampa was on. so the winds were weaker here.

it was the better side. we saw sustained gusts of 60 miles per hour there were wind gusts of 0 but it stayed the same around 60. i'm alongside the hillsborough river which runs right through downtown. if you were watching any of our coverage at this time yesterday morning, the river was dropping and throughout the day it continued to drop dramatically. when the storm moved in, with it came the high tide. now the river is above flood stage, still rising, but no reports of major flooding in the tampa area, east of here in lakeland, florida, around 12:30 a.m., rescuers had to use a military style vehicle to rescue a family, two adults and two very young children stranded in a vehicle. they are okay this morning. again, no reports of major injuries. no reports of significant flooding. and the mayor of tampa tells us the curfew is still in effect. what they want to do is wait until sun rise, get out and survey the area. but they could lift this curfew shortly after day break.

gayle? >> all right, david. we'll be following. storm. eric, good morning. how is it looking? >> good morning. we're on that slow weakening trend but it will be gradual. we have the center of the storm making its way to ocala. and there you see tampa that center just off to the east and that really helped them dodge a bullet there in the tampa bay area. 75-mile-per-hour winds picking up steam at 18 miles per hour. you see most of the action is along and north and east of the path. look at the heavy rain spreading across georgia, south carolina. you saw how it was in jarecka's live report in jacksonville, 80-mile-per-hour wind gusts and set a record for storm surge in jackson this morning. winds 50-80 miles an hour northeast of the track. our biggest concern likely will be the continuation of more of these power outages already over 4 million customers without

power. when you add that rain as well as those winds in, that will be the big thing we deal with this monday as irma slowly winds its way down. it is expected to become a tropical storm in just a few hours this morning. >> that is some good news, eric. thank you so much. miami may have been spared a blow from the eye of the hurricane but the 400-mile-wide storm caused extensive damage. hurricane force winds and widespread flooding battered the city yesterday. mark straussman is in downtown miami with a look at the damage. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, norah. this severed tree limb is just one of the reasons why to drive through downtown miami you have to weave your way around wreckage of trees and power lines because high winds, hurricane force winds, and up to 5 1/2 feet of storm surge swept through this downtown area. in fact, so much storm surge and the winds were so high that parts of the skyline, the tall buildings in downtown miami, looked like they had been planted on islands. power outages were a huge

problem as well. florida power and light, the main utility here, says at one point 85% of its customer base, homes and businesses, were in the dark. that's more than 2 million customers. restoring that power is going to take weeks. the hurricane force winds also sheared rooftops and gouged at buildings, the facades of them. some of the buildings included construction projects. two cranes, a couple miles apart, both snapped. a third one snapped in ft. lauderdale. no reports of injuries but, guys, cleaning up all this mess is going to take a while. and the important thing is not only the cleanup but also the safety and the -- of the power crews. lots of municipalities have decided to extend their curfews. miami beach is saying to people, stay away until noon tomorrow. norah? >> all right, mark, you've done some incredible reporting there. thank you so much. cbs news will bring you continuing coverage of hurricane

irma. coming up at 7:00 on "cbs this morning" reports from across the state. plus we'll show how irma cause this had rare weather phenomenon in sarasota. why so much of the water disappeared out of the bay. >> so stay with this cbs station for updates on your local news and watch our 24-hour streaming news network. >> this has been a cbs news special report. cbs news, new york. reportedvan

weather to go out and take a look at this low tide. an unusual and unusual sight for sure. something that these people haven't seen before. but officials say what they're doing is very, very dangerous. they should not be letting their guards down. and going out in these lulls. because these extreme windy bands come without warning up and down the coast. back out here. you can see the bridge behind me.

leads to siesta key. closed now. evacuated as of 8:00 last night. there are some police officers out there who told us that when they were driving over it, just a couple hours ago, it was vibrating and shaking. so they're recommending everybody stay off the bridge right now. pretty much at this point, the hurricane is coming, and there isn't much time left, but people who are still on the island over here, well if they haven't evacuated by now, they better be prepared to hunker down. >> the tampa/st. pete area is extremely vulnerable to irma's storm surge, flood often. st. pete sits on the gulf coast. across the bay, the hills. borough river runs through tampa. david begnaud there tonight. what's happening right now? >> irma is knocking on the door of tampa, jeff. the lights are on. the people are gone. a guest town right now. i have been watching as bright green flashes have lit up the horizon. apparently, transformers are blowing. the rain is intense.

the wind is really picking up here. we're expecting within the next, four, six, maybe eight hours, that storm will be over us. here's what's happening quite dramatic we have been watching all day. alongside, the hills. borough river. runs through downtown. water from the river 'tis sucked out into the gulf. started at around 12:00 noon. it should have already come back in with the high tide. but here's what is happening. the hurricane is literally overriding the tide cycle. keeping this water offshore. it dropped probably 6 to 8 feet. where we are. and forecasters tell us what is going to happen when irma roars ashore through here it is going to bring with it the water associated with the high tide, but also, the storm surge. now here is the good news if there is any. forecasters are now saying the storm could be a category 1 by the time it rolls into tampa. means the storm surge predictions we heard about three hours ago which could have put the surge as high as 8 feet have come down. now it may between 3 and 5 feet.

here is the issue. tampa fire chief told me about an hour ago even if tampa get 3 feet of water it will be nearly impossible for his men and women to perform rescues. at this point we have not seen a patrol car or an emergency vehicle, on the road, again, there is nobody out and about right now. everybody is either hunkered down or gotten out of town. >> david, thank you very much. the green flashes that david talked about by the way, they can happen in storms like this. they can be transfixing, sometimes those are the, the transformers. we have much more coming up here. as irma continues her long trek up the florida coast. we have correspondents all around the state. around the state. and we have more clearasil rapid action begins working fast for clearly visible results in as little as 12 hours. but will it stop this teen from chugging hot sauce? ...oh jeremy. so let's be clear: clearasil works fast on teen acne, not so much on other teen things.
