it's the best snorkeling in all of hawaii. this is what it more or less look like because he happened to arrive h at a festival to celebrate the god and apparently this has been debated endlessly byhe anthropologists, apparently they thought he was the god .he happened to arrive during te festival in the right direction these big ships with big sales. there is unbelievabled energy ad rapture around captain cook's arrival. the bowed down to him. they brought him into the temple and worshiped him it seemed like. that's the story that happens for the first couple of weeks. step expedition artist, sure they do these amazing pieces of art. everyone is happy. everyone is having a great time this is what it looks like today right at the place where things go badly for captain cook. and then three weeks later we get this. this is how it ended the story. i want you to read the book and i want you to buy the book. i do not want to tell you how we get to the spot. but the question is, how did this most disciplined of explorers and of the

parts of hawaii have seen their third wettest day in the past 75 years. thousands lost power.these storms share one thing in common. scientists say climate change is making them more extreme. meanwhile, back in hawaii, the islands there bracing for impact from another storm system heading its way later this week, norah. >> norah: jonathan vigliotti, thank you for that update. now to the dangerous heat wave and the severe storm threat in the midwest.@cbs' lonnie quinn h the forecast. good evening, lonnie. >> reporter: good evening, norah. some of this stuff has its roots in basic meteorology. the hotter it is, the tougher the storms can be. hot air creates lift and that's what you don't want to see and combine that with humidity, you've got some problems. the hotbed in terms of temperatures, midsection of the country. take a look at some of these readings out there. moline hitting 99 degrees, feeling like 110 for your day tomorrow. it's been today and tomorrow. you've got more of this. chicago, 97, feeling like 107. if you look at the radar, we have watched a couple cells, one

they should weaken to tropical storms at worse before they will get to hawaii.aii, they do have a lot to deal with and it is the rainfall as we just mentioned in that story as we come in for a closer look at hawaii, you can see this storm is kind of leaving now. but it's still got a lot of rain that it has been throwing and it will continue to throw that for hawaii and close to 6.5. there is hana on maui and there is honolulu. you can see the difference. there's a lot more rain getting driven right in to that windward side on the big island and that is where that big concern will come in with a lot of warm water out there as well for the storm to work with. and this is where we find the other two, which are developing. that first one will fall apart as they will race across the pacific and cover all that expanse and we will watch that turn into a tropical storm before they get there. let's get back over to home to check in on the virtual set is here. what we're talking about for us is the warm up that has started and temperatures tomorrow, 10 degrees where they

hawaii colony, upu. and these two cultures met for the time in a pretty profound, two thriving cultures. that exciting moment of first contact when everything possible before there's before there's miscues and miscues and miscommunications. there is this electric moment when cultures collide or have at least a possibility of truly understanding each other. and this is a painting painted by a native hawaiian, an amazing man named herb carney, who does a whole series of of historical paintings. so just really kind of gets to the heart of what this book is about. it's a nautical tale, has all the kind of the attributes of, a nautical tale of woe, but also has this electric moment of. first contact when anything is possible and there's a splendor and there's a majesty, there's anything, you know, it's just like any any kind thing could happen. and that's really the the moment repeatedly throughout the book that i try to capture. so let's talk a little bit about, captain cook. how many of you know a lot about
