along the east coast. hurricane joaquin has strengthened to a category three storm. it is churning in the atlantic and could make landfall in the united states over the coming days. right now, joaquin is pounding eyelids near the bahamas with winds around 120 miles an hour. virginia has already declared a state of emergency, as the storm is expected to move north. >> the east coast has been hit hard this week. flooding affected parts of south carolina overnight. it forced roads to closed and created a sinkhole. more than 6 inches of rain slammed maine yesterday and standing water filled roads. around 6,000 people lost power. this morning in new jersey, crews will be building massive sand barriers on the beaches to prepare for the possibility of serious flooding. chief weather forecaster lonnie quinn of our new york station wcbs is tracking joaquin as it approaches. what are you seeing? good morning. >> reporter: gayle, i see some really big changes out there. not only in the track and the intensity. yesterday at this hour, i was talking to you about a tropical storm.

today, it's a hurricane with a pretty big number. take a peek the 5:00 numbers in from the national hurricane center. it looks like this on the infrared satellite pictures and numbers to go along it. 120-mile-per-hour winds and cat three to become a cat four and makes all-important turn to the north and travel up the eastern seaboard. is it a landfall or not a landfall? both are possibilities today. could be a landfall from north carolina to massachusetts. but there is also a possibility at least, and it could stay out to sea. not a great possibility but it's out there. here are the spaghetti models. now all over the place. anywhere from north carolina up to the east end of long island. you did see one or two pushing out to sea. how is that possible? it's all because there are so many different variables that we are dealing with this storm. high pressure, low pressure, another high pressure. this high, if it sets up further offshore that's your escape route. if it pushes further to shore, it will push the storm onshore and if this high drops in that,

that seal the deal and pushes it onshore. a lot to watch and monitor and possibly another update will come out in an hour and see you then. russian war planes are reportedly attacking targets in syria again this morning. u.s. rebel fighters backed by the cia was hit in one of the opening round of air strikes. russian foreign minister insist they only attacked isis positions. defense secretary ash carter said russia should not use force to prop up bashar al assad. >> figghtin isis without not pursuing a pill transition only risks circulatie i escalating t. this approach that approach is tantamount to poweriur gasoline the fire. >> russian planes are hitting areas of syria where isis is not

in control. holly williams has more. >> reporter: russia gave the u.s. one hour's notice before launching these air strikes and there are unconfirmed reports this morning of more strikes. we are now in a very dangerous situation with both the u.s. and russia conducting air strikes in syria, but backing different side in the country's civil war. russian war planes struck rebel-held areas in central and northern syria, despite russia's planes that had hit isis positions, at least some of the targets appear to have been in areas that are not controlled by isis, or groups linked to al qaeda. 36 civilians were killed, including children, according to syrian opposition forces. a syrian rebel commander who is backed by the u.s. told us the russians will be treated as

occupiers. russia has backed the syria in the regime in the civil war and supports syria so-called moderate rebels. the syrian war has already cost more than 250,000 lives and forced nearly 12 million people to flee their homes. for weeks now, russia has been building up forces on an air base near the syrian city of latakia with over 30 fightereo jets and helicopter gunships and anti-aircraft systems. the u.s. says it does not object to russia's targeting isis, but fears that attacks on other groups will only serve to make the syrian conflict even bloodier. as america continues its air strikes against isis in syria, the u.s. and russia will hold talks this week to reduce the

risk of an accidental collision in syrian air space. charlie? >> holly in turkey, thank you very much. michael morrell is with us from washington a former deputy director of the cia. good morning. >> good morning. >> what do these air strikes tell us about what russia is trying to do and what is the risk of a wider war? >> what putin is trying to do here, charlie, is strengthen assad, prop up assad. that's why he is going after the moderate opposition. because they have put assad under the most pressure he has been under since the fall of 2012. the reason he is doing that is he does not want assad to fall because he really believes that if assad falls, there will be more instability in syria, giving more running room to isis, maybe even having isis in damascus and that is why he is doing what he is do. >> does the u.s. believe that? >> so i don't think putin is thinking about this right, charlie. he is absolutely right, that if

assad leaves tomorrow with no follow on government, then you're in a libya kind of situation with chaos. the u.s. plan all along is a transition from assad to another government. that is what we have to have. that is the only solution here and putin has just made that much more difficult. >> how does this complicate things? i mean, you hear president putin saying that these air strikes were to carry out terrorists and, in fact, u.s. officials say the attack was not directed at isis. if you look at the map, where these air strikes are occurring, gunships and airplanes are near the central city of homz where few, if any, militants of the islamic state. do the u.s. and russians need to get together quickly and work this out? >> norah, the risk is that we are both flying in the same air space, in the same country. you have to deconflict. and that deconfliction has to be every day and every morning the two sides need to get together

and say we are flying here, you're flying there. there needs to be that kind of dialogue. hard to imagine, hard to imagine that russia and the united states are going to be able to do that every morning. >> do you deconflict if you only get one hour's notice? >> you do not. so the record, right now, charlie, is that they are not going to do that. we need to pressure them to do it. >> so he keeps saying that he is going after isis, but our intelligence shows otherwise. why do they keep going with this narrative, mike morrell? >> because they really are. go back to what i said to charlie earlier, they really are focused on isis. but they are focused on isis in the sense that if assad falls, isis grows, right? they are trying to protect assad so they are going after all of assad's enemies. >> mike, let me ask you about the historical significance of this. this is the first time that russia has conducted combat operations in the middle east since the ends of world war ii. >> correct, correct. they and the british invaded iran right at the end of world

war ii to preserve the oil fields for the allies, so one of the things, right, the primary focus of putin here is protecting syria, protecting assad, right? the second is he has always wanted to be a big player in the middle east and this gives him that, so is there a symbolic aspect to this as well. >> thank you, michael. >> you're welcome. syria was a big topic in our interview with vladimir putin on "60 minutes." the russian leader expressed concern as a power vacuum in syria if president assad is forced out. putin pointed out other situations where he says that led to disaster. you have said that a strong centralized government is in the dna of russia. you know, and you have a huge fear, as you suggest, an anarchy, maybe in syria and in other places, of no strong government.

that's the fear that vladimir putin had. >> translator: well, i'm not saying that there is no strong governments in the country. i'm saying that if there is no government at all, then there will be anarchy and a vacuum and a vacuum and anarchy will rapidly transform into terrorism. well, take iraq, for example. a well-known figure, saddam hussein, whether he was good or bad, you probably forgotten that. at some stage, the u.s. was cooperating very actively with saddam when he was fighting iran. you helped rim wihim with arms political cover was provided, et cetera. then, for some reason, you had a falling out and the u.s. decided to eliminate saddam, but by eliminating saddam hussein, the

u.s. eliminated the iraqi government and thousands of people from the former baath party and they were part of the sunni elite of the state were thrown out on the street. nobody thought about them. now they are filling the ranks of isil. that's what we are fighting against. we are not against some country showing its leadership somewhere. we are against thoughtless actions that result in such negative situations that are hard to correct. >> interesting insights from the russian president. >> yeah. >> it points out again, charlie, how timely your interview was with putin. makes you think he knew what he planned to do. >> we will be watching how much koorp cooperation there is now between the u.s. and russia.

relatives who recently escaped to turkey. >> people are leaving not because they are immigrants looking for a better life. they are leaving because they will die, that simple. and we have to play a role in providing support. >> reporter: afterward, bush was told about trump's promise to expel syrian refuges. >> there should be some sensitivity by mr. trump and others this is a specific challenge. if you didn't hear that young woman's concern that people are seeking freedom >> reporter: ben carson came down largely on trump's side. >> unless we have a mechanism of guarantee we are not bringing in jihadist are terrorists. >> reporter: the obama administration is admitting 10,000 more refuges. the high commissioner says

400,000 refuges must be settled outside of the middle east and international agencies have called on the u.s. to accept 100,000 refuges the next calendar year. a new set of hillary clinton's e-mails shows the private server when she was secretary of state. officials found three state department e-mails that should have been classified as secret. other messages came from hackers trying to steal clinton's personal information. nancy cordes is in washington where officials believe that the hacking attempt was connected to russia. nancy, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. those phishing e-mails were disguised as speeding tickets. five of them that popped up in clinton's private inbox in august of 2011. security experts say they demonstrate the risks of using a private server to conduct sensitive government businesses. the state's traffic systems came from a dot gov address.

including clinton said they were caught speeding and click on the attachment to pay it and it was known as a rat. >> once the rat is on your computer they can eavesdrop on your morph, your keyboard and all of the websites you visit and all of the files you open and they can even steal information covertically. >> reporter: a clinton spokesman tells cbs news there is no evidence she opened the attachment. and all of these e-mails show that like other millions of americans, she received spam. the latest e-mail release comes amidst an uproar over the house committee investigating the benghazi attack as kevin mccarthy seemed to acknowledge its purpose was to bring down clinton. >> everybody thought hillary clinton was unbeatable, right? we put together a benghazi special committee, a select committee. what are her numbers today. >> reporter: democrats pounced. >> i can't believe what that

means, mr. speaker. it means this is a hoax. >> reporter: they called the committee a political smear campaign and demanded it with be shut down. clinton said mccarthy's comments reveal the truth about the committee. >> this was always meant to be a partisan, political exercise. >> reporter: whatever it is, it has hurt clinton. not just her poll numbers but her fund-raising numbers now too. the clinton campaign announced last night it raised $28 million over the last quarter and that is less than $5 million more than vermont senator bernie sanders who raised most of his money in small amounts online and not at big fund-raisers. he also has got a much smaller staff to pay. >> thank you, nancy. this morning, a lucky powerball player is waking up as a millionaire. a jackpot worth more than 310 million was sold in three rivers, michigan. it matched all five numbers and the poswerball in last night's

so obeying, big game in the afc north tonight. >> so what things do you think we will see with vick? >> i think what you're going to see is them do some things that are comfortable. it's a short week for him. has is the unfortunate part of but they still have, like i said, a lot of weapons around him. antonio brown. i think we could see a lot of le'veon bell in the running game. i think if you want to throw the ball with michael vick do it on first down. a baltimore defense has given up a lot of passing game but the biggest thing with michael vick be patient with the offense latin the game come to him and don't try to do too much too fast. >> we keep hearing that your coach mike tomlin has a no crutch rule. what does that mean? if you're on crutches you can't be on the sideline and if that is the case, how do you expect ben will contribute tonight? >> i think ben will contribute during the week. the biggest thing he is helping michael in his preparation. i think, right now, the biggest thing for ben is to get back and get healthy. in the meantime, michael vick

has played a lot of football and has a lot of weapons around him. he understands that. he will not see anything tonight that he hasn't seen before. the biggest thing he is going to see is a level of desperation from the baltimore ravens that is going to take them to a sense that they must come away with a win, somehow, swome way tonight. this is a big game. look in back of me. when you get inside the 20 yard line, it is called the red zone, but in pittsburgh we call it the ketchup zone. we have two ketchup bottles see in the end zone. there they are. when you get inside the 20 yard line they drop and its look like the ketchup is pouring out. only in pittsburgh can we define the heinz bottle as red ketchup. >> desperation is never a good feeling in anything tonight. how do you expect them to play tonight? >> like i said i know john harbaugh. they have had three games they lost and they have been leading in all three of these football games. the last two in the fourth quarter and two last-minute drives have beat them. again, this is a football team

with joe flacco, they have been to super bowls. steve smith is a big player what has kind of played with a little bit of a chip on his shoulder. they don't have terrell suggs and the heart and soul of their defense and they have to transition into a new defense without him. throw the records out the window when the two teams play. they have a dislike for one another is a kind way of saying it and a lot of hard hitting tonight. this is a big game for both of these teams and again trying to stay within reach of the cincinnati bengals who is now 3-0. >> when you look at the nfl and the afl, what surprises you most so far? >> i think when you look at all of this, a surprising start to some of the teams. new england patriots and denver broncos look very strong. it's funny to watch the den broncos and peyton manning transition into a new offense. what was lat we talked about peyton manning transition into an offense? you look on the nfc side of it, you know, it's still seattle and green bay packers. what kind of start they have gotten off to.

again, we talk about jurn jis. this is a long season and everybody will go through elements of challenges whether it's through injuries or tough losses at the end of the game. you have to kind of persevere. you have to be resilient and because a lot of times the end part is all about the journey that you take from the beginning to the end. we are in october. we have only played three games. a lot of football left to be played. the story is unfolding before our eyes. >> coach cowher, thank you. listen. how did you get through that session when you went back to your school without getting choked up? i got choked up watching you here in the studio. what did that mean to you? >> you know what, gayle? i went back there yesterday when i landed. they have a tough game on friday. as i told them, you know, they are trying to change a culture. when you try and change a culture, you know, it's a process. and it's challenging and can also be very defining as well. these young boys and the coach, they are embracing the challenge that lies ahead of them and find a way to get out of this 17-game

losing streak. i'm proud of them as they continue this march onward. >> thank you, coach. you can watch the pittsburgh steelers taking on the baltimore ravens tonight on "thursday night football." you can see coach cowher again when the coverage begins at 7:30 either on cbs. >> no doubt he will be impartial. legendary writer was a
