4:04 am
as we embrace for hurricane dorian. the brave individuals collected the data that helps forecast the storm's track. we're going to introduce you to the first all-female flight crew aboard the so-called hurricane hunter. we're going to see how barbecue is done with chef cfrc domes of meat like you've never seen before. we're going to see step by step how he creates these masterpiece meals. >> that's unbelievable. and then as the u.s. hopefuls continue to thrill, the stadium is where tennis's color barrier was shattered, and it's now home to one of the most unique concert venues in the country. we'll give you a tour and then have a special performance from beck in our "saturday sessions." that's all ahead. but we begin this morning with a slow and potentially dangerous approach of hurricane
4:05 am
dorian to the bahamas and florida. the storm was upgraded to a category 4 late last night and is now packing maximum sustained winds of 140 miles per hour with higher gusts. dorian is moving west-northwest at about 12 miles per hour. >> preparations are under way for the massive storm. hurricane conditions are expected in the bahamas by tomorrow. storm surges there could raise water levels 15 feet above normal. in florida, many are leaving nothing to chance. they're stocking up at gas stations and grocery stores. florida governor rhonda is telling people to stock up. meteorologist jeff beraradelli is here with the latest. so, jeff, the track does seem to be changing, right. >> a lot. it's changed a lot since yesterday. it has big implications up and down the eastern seaboard. first we zoom in. look how perfectly circular and
4:06 am
symmetrical this storm is. it went from a cat 2 to cat 4 in just 24 hours. i don't think it's going to strengthen much today. you see the western side of the system being eaten away, plus the water system doesn't support something much stronger than this. let's show you the latest stats as of the 5:00 advisory. that's the latest advisory from the national hurricane center. winds are moving west-northwest at 12. it's miles from palm beach right now. let's show you the track. this is interesting because it has shifted. it's going to continue west toward freeport. it's going to stall out literally unfortunately toward the bahamas. after that the system will begin to make its way northwest. the question is where does it make that turn? the latest track has shift off coast, not making landfall at palm beach or at least the center anywhere as you can see
4:07 am
inland in florida. but it will eventually make landfall southeast as a slightly weak ended version of itself. again, it could make landfall anywhere in this coneful it could shift back 20, 30 miles and all of a sudden it's onshore. we're concerned about that. watch out for that in the northeast. what's going on? a big high pressure system is all together. however, as we head over the next couple of days, it will break apart. when it breaks apart, it will enter no man's land and have very little steering. the question is any little change in the wind storm could push it in a certain direction. so it's going to wander and feel the influence of this jet stream and possibly be pulled north toward the southeast coast. let's show you a few computer models. this is the european model. it goes over the grand bahama, and then after that it creeps up the coast. then eventually it tries to make
4:08 am
landfall somewhere along the southeast coast. now, the american model. it's somewhat similar. they were disagreed yesterday. they agree today. it's a little offshore, buthees charleston and up the coast line. folks in florida and north carolina need to watch this closely. last but not least, i want to sum it up and show you what we know as of the latest. first of all, the track has shifted. it could chachlk its mind. it's up the coast, battering its way along the southeast coast. >> it's shifted so much to the east, there's no reason why it couldn'tet shift back to the west. >> exactly. >> we'll be watching. this is what hurricane dorian look like from space. pictures show the storms churn in the atlantic on the ground. nasa moved one of its mobile launchers to a nearby building
4:09 am
as a precaution. mireya villarreal is in cocoa beach in brevard county where we're watching one of the main spots this morning. mireya, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. labor day weekend is supposed to be a big weekend along the east coast, but right now dorian is definitely impacting that, and a lot of these businesses are following n following. at cocoa beach, they're one of the first to order a mandatory evacuation and that goes into effect sunday morning at 8:00 a.m. time is running out to prepare for hurricane dorian and so are supplies that i'm already good. i have plywood out. i'm ready to go. >> >> reporter: karen modafferi said she's here for supplies.
4:10 am
you're not taking any chances. >> nope, i'm not. >> reporter: the uncertainty of where hurricane dorian will land has people all along florida's east coast 00erring down. >> time to act is now. you do have some time, but that time is running out. >> reporter: across the state, residents are facing long lines at gas stations and fuel shortages. this is seaport canaveral, the fuel that supplies most of central florida that has to come through here. there's a huge supply. 38 million gallons ready to go. when dorian hits, no doubt this place will have to shut down and that supply will be cut off. david smith is the seaport's general manager. >> we stale open until emergency services are closing the causeway and say it's no longer safe. that's when we send our team home. >> reporter: up to 400 trucks come through this tank farm, transporting fuel to neve airports and gas stations. the plan is to shut it down by saturday night. small boats will be out of the
4:11 am
water and cruise lines will be concern is the uncertainty of where it's going and when it's coming in the shelves. homes to make sure they have generators after 12 people died in 2017 when hurricane irma knocked out power at nursing homes. local hospitals started evacuating patients to hospitals inland yesterday. and we know shelters will be open for people sometime tomorrow where they're leaving but need a safe place to ride out the storm. >> best advice, get out of the eye, get out. as mireya said, they're facing fuel shortages already. a number of stations up and down florida's east coast from jacksonville to miami have already run out. in an effort to take care of it.
4:12 am
the gorge has issued more. florida's busiest travel hubs are this holiday weekend. mark strassmann is in st. augustine with that part of the story. mark, good morning. >> good morning. it's labor day weekend, and yet deserted streets like this one are about to become routine with tourist destinations like st. augustine, america's oldest city. residents and tourists alike, everyone is tracking the storm in their own way. dorian makes its slow approach. there are long lines for gas and in some places plastic bags covering the pumps, a sign to drivers in need of fuel to look elsewhere. >> i do understand, however, no one saw this coming? >> reporter: the pain may just be beginning for air travelers.
4:13 am
airlines are already sending out alerts to passengers traveling through florida, home to four of the nation's biggest airports. on friday the big carriers started offering waivers, allowing passengers to change their flights through florida airports without penalty. with dorian still a few days away, some flyers are making their getaway now. >> i was really, really worried about having to change my flights and all of my hotels being canceled and stuff like that, but i'm e going to be leaving earlier than the hurricane gets there. >> it was quite an adventure, to say the least. it was a nightmare to get the flight to come back sooner, but we finally made it. >> reporter: day by day here, travel options will keep dropping. by 2:00 a.m. monday morning, airports in both orlando and daytona beach will close. dana?
4:14 am
>> mark strassmann. thank you, mark. jeff beraradelli, our meteorologist back with us. jeff, we were talking about we both have family down there, and they've been preparing for a while. everybody thought it with us going to hit around that west palm area. why did it shift so drastically? >> i've been a meteorologist a long time. i've worked in florida 16 years, covering hurricanes. they never cease to amaze me. it's not a perfect science. it could still head to florida. you ask the question, why do they shift? they're very defensive. literally a flick of a butterfly flapping its wings sometimes can send it in a different direction. that's why it's so hard for us to predict. in fact, we have a graphic i want to show you. >> a butterfly can shift and flap its wings to the east. >> and that is possible. this is what yesterday's model runs look like. literally 18 to 24 hours later,
4:15 am
we're going to click the button and watch it shift to the east. that's about a 200-mile shift, and that makes all the difference in the world. >> but that is a track that's very familiar to hurricane hugo back in 1989. $7 billion in damage. can they assist or assess to get out of the way? >> at this point, yes. there's plenty of time. watch out along the north florida coast, carolina coast, even the georgia coast. everybody's still fair game. >> all right, jeff. thank you. president trump is at camp david this morning after postponing a scheduled trip to poland. mr. trump said friday with hurricane dorian barreling toward the southern coast, he was needed here in the u.s. paula reid is at the white house. paula, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the president was asked if he was concerned about his mar-a-lago resort, which is
4:16 am
directly in the path of this hurricane. he said he's not thinking about that. what he's thinking about is the state of florida, ahead of the storm he thinks could be devastating. >> the hurricane is roaring and could be a big one. >> reporter: president trump left friday evening for camp david where he will continue to monitor hurricane dorian. >> i'm e going to camp david. we have a lot of exerts with us. we have a lot of the fema people that are coming up, but we are really coming back. rephes white house after the departure of his longtime personal assistant and director of oval office operations,

for millions of students, labor day weekend marks the end of summer vacation and the start of another school year, but for the first time in 185 years, there will be no fall semester at green mountain college in western vermont. the school fell victim to trends in higher education that could soon impact hundreds of other schools. brook silva-braga was there as the college packed up for good. >> reporter: when robert allen became president of green mountain college in 2016, he admired the picturesque campus, marveled at their carbon-neutral
4:39 am
footprint, and then gawked at their balance sheet. how soon did you realize there might be a problem? >> very quickly. i mean i'm a mathematician by training, a financial person, and i realized that we were going to come up short. >> reporter: the main problem was shrinking enrollment. by last year just 427 students remained on campus. broke and unable to find a school to merge with, in january allen announced that the school's 184th graduation would be its last. >> i've had a long professional career, not all of it in education. it was the hardest thing i've ever had to do. as you can imagine, many parents were really angry. >> i'm kind of disappointed. a lot of people came here to build relationships and kee going, not just come here for a year or two. >> reporter: what's left of green mountain has a gmp classr dorms, not even the pool is
4:40 am
filled. >> and it speaks to how these closures affect not just the school and the students but the whole community. >> it was the only swimming pool in town. >> reporter: the costs to run a college keeps going up. new buildings, higher administrative costs. but sluggish middle-class wages mean fewer americans can afford to pay. >> i think this is something people have trouble understanding. tuition is so high. >> right. >> shouldn't it be easy to keep a college in good financial health. >> yeah, it would. >> reporter: we left green mountain and headed toward boston, finding other shuttered schools was as easy as pulling to the side of the road. southern vermont college in bennington, vermont, also closed after the spring semester. this past spring also marked the last classes forollegeph in rut.
4:41 am
just across the border in massachusetts, atlantic union college closed year newbury co here in brookline, massachusetts, graduated its last class too. in boston, at harvard, we met michael horn, who's been studying education and has a grim prediction. >> you think more of these closures are coming. >> absolutely. i think 25% of schools will fall in the next two decades? a quarter that a quarter. it's going to be brutal across american higher education. >> reporter: horn says the problems colleges already face finding enough paying customers will only get worse. >> we know families had fewer children after the recession in 2008, which means that in just a few years, there's just going to be fewer high school graduates and not as many students going into college. >> reporter: small schools in the midwest and northeast are
4:42 am
especially vulnerable and horn says new forms of education will bring even more pressure. >> i think we're going to programs emerge and mobile learning programs come up where you can literally just pop on your phone, learn a few things, and i think we're going to see more of these sort of flexible, affordable, convenient programs. >> reporter: but what these college alternatives will mean for students and the families paying their way, that's less clear. >> i have a 1-year-old at home. >> yeah. >> is he yuf enough that society will have moved off of this idea of the degree in time that i don't have to come up with 500 grand in 17 years. >> this is the big question in my household too. i've got 5-year-old twins. i don't know. there's a huge part of society that would have to shift with that. it's not just expectation tiggess it. ooh is how employers a going to school is for social reasons. >> reporter: so what becomes of
4:43 am
the classic college campus? president allen says he's received interest from international high schools and a group hoping to educate veterans. another college here seems unlikely. >> this problem is not going aw away. the demographics are not going to change. and the fact that college is not affordable for a lot of folks is not going to change in the near term. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning: saturday," brook silva-braga, poultney, vermont. >> we talked about berea college who offered scholarships to all of its students. it would be interesting if they could teach a few lessons. >> they handle scholarships in different ways. not one student paid full tuition last year. they were all on scholarship. they're nott' sad because for s students, the smaller college is what they need to get that

educati education. it's interesting to see if some of the ways change. online learning, i know for me it was some of the social aspect of college and learning how to be with others. >> it is important. college is important. are self-driving cars about to change the world, or will they be like the jet packs we're all still waiting for? up next, we'll get an update on the multi-billion-dollar race to develop them with kevin delaney of the quartz website. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday." ling super h. with salmon, cranberries... ...oh, but we are not done yet! here comes superfood wet with beef, salmon, and pumpkin. it's like a superfood sundae. on a monday.

the race to create the self-driving car continues at a feverish pace with major players pumping billions into the effort, and the intense pursuit may have led to corporate espionage. this week former uber engineer anthony levandowski was charged with 33 counts of trade secret theft, accuse of bringing key data from going toll rival uber. self-driving vehicles are a frequent jikt on the quartz news website and were the topic of
4:48 am
the site's obsession email this week. here to talk about it is kevin delaney, editor in chief and co-ceo of quartz. good morning. >> good morning. >> it says as it stands, autonomous vehicles are poised to deliver either transportation heaven or hell. so which is it. >> so right now we're heading toward hell, and there are two reasons for this. the first reason is that these cars are not safe yet, enough. you know, there are five levels of autonomous vehicle safety according to the u.s. government certification. we're now at about a level two. what this means is people need to be keeping their hands on the wheel, keeping alert to avoid accidents. the second reason we're heading toward hell is what researchers have found is that when people have access to less cars -- driving that requires less effort and money, they actually drive a lot more. so the traffic we experience today is likely to get a lot worse if without taking some
4:49 am
measures to include carpooling and other things, we just let these cars go. >> how do we pull ourselves out of hell? what should the industry to do to reassure people and change the way it's developing autonomous vehicles? >> there are two key parts of it. the first is it is introduced kind of in waves, and the way this makes sense is low speed buses, for example, or truck platooning is one of the applications people think. you actually have a human driver driving one truck and an autonomous truck behind it so you can, in effect, double the capacity of it. and then the other key thing is carpooling. and so if you make it easier for people to drive because you could sleep or do whatever, while your car is driving, we need to make sure it looks more

like uber pool than uber x and peop i cars together or otherwise congestion will be atrocious. >> you talk about city planning and policy. it seems we don't have the policies and regulations out there. >> that's right. >> how does that shift? >> what we see currently is there's not a lot of guidance coming out of washington. there's not enough. this is like a lot of other areas of policy and politics where our lawmakers are struggli struggling, and our current administration is struggling to take the lead here. what we're seeing is the car companies and tech companies involved in this area themselves who are pooling data, collecting a lot more on some of the safety things that need to be done, i think it's in all of our interests that the government gets more involvend and gets in front of this. we haven't seen this yet. >> it's another airy where it seems technology is way ahead and we've got to play catchup. >> no more sleeping drivers behind the wheel. >> we saw that last week. >> that's a long time in the foo

5:13 am
profits. >> any particular company out there? >> totally fictional, made it up. >> totally. >> i did a ton of research on this. to peg it down to any one company, i think, is dangerous. >> do workplaces exist like this as described in the book? >> yeah. in the warehouse there's a live/work facility. it's so big they build dormitories so you work there and live there. that's the foxconn model in asia. >> reporter: hart's world pumps steroids into current workplace practices and unravels the consequences. in the book black friday is taken to the extreme. i actually covered a woman who was trampled to death in a black friday opening at a walmart. i'll never forget it. >> reporter: imagining a world where deadly confrontations in stores during the holiday season

fulfillment center and they were really running people into the ground to mees these insane standards. and yet people are still lined up around the block for these jobs because they set up in economically depressed areas. >> reporter: he filed that away until he came across this new york teams article. maria fernandez died after breathing gasoline fumes while sleeping in her car between shifts. >> maria worked at three dunkin' donuts part time. it was just this horrifying story. the year she died, she was struggling to pay $550 a month on a basement apartment in newark. and that same year the ceo of dunkin' donuts made $10 million. >> reporter: it's the same toil for hart's characters. >> i think your book is going to force a lot of questions. >> i think we need to start
5:16 am
being a lot more proactive than we have been. you know, i've made compromises and i've made bad decisions. but i think a really good first step is if we start thinking a little bit. >> you want people to have an a-ha moment. >> i've written a bunch of articles about this. the thing about fiction sit's sort of empathy, being in someone else's shoes. it's a way for you to relate to someone else's story and see those common and connecting threads. that's why it felt like fix was the right avenue for this. >> even before the book was finished, ron howard beat out others to option this for a movie. so it is coming out in the next few years. but this was so interesting in the very beginning of the book. a former president said this, i pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the maen or woman who
