ian's not done with us yet.u. >>> today president biden announced the return of seven americans who were held in venezuela for more than four years. christina raffini is at the white house. what else do we know? >> the white house and president biden has spoken to the families of all americans that are in the air and on their way home. an official also tells us that they had a chance to speak to their families and that they were overjoyed to have been released. now the move was part of a prisoner swap in exchange for two nephews of president maduro's wife who were convicted on drug charges in a u.s. court in 2015 in what was a very high-profile case accusing the maduro government in being complicit in drug trafficking. the exchange took place in a third unidentified country and president biden signed off on the release of the two venezuelans a few weeks ago, but it's taken this long to make it actually happen. also tonight, we are learning the iranian government has temporarily released two u.s. citizens, bacher

how did they respect this ian when it was on the way? thankful to the citizens of charleston and the low country. they heeded our warnings to batten down the hatches, hunker down and stay inside. yesterday it was like a ghost town, which is exactly what we wanted, right when the storm came through. we had first responders ready to go and all our crews, but they didn't really have to go out because people were staying home like we asked them and stayed safe. we had very few calls to make during the storm. so now we can just focus on the recovery and the cleanup, so our citizens did great. now they're all coming together to clean up their properties. in a funny kind of way, it really brought the community together. >> that's fantastic. good news. mayor tecklenburg, always good to talk to you. i'll give you a call next time i'm in town because charleston always still home for me in my heart. >> please do. and i ask all americans to please generously help those who have been impacted down in florida, our neighbors down there, who were hit so

every inch. >> ian pannell joins us tonight from kharkiv. ukraine's second largest city, and, ian, president biden with that strong warning to putin that every inch of nato will be defended. but what about these four regions, these territories claimed by russia now. >> reporter: yeah, i mean, i think on one level it won't immediately have an impact, but remember that zelenskyy just applied for fast track status to join nato. now, if that were to happen, which i think is unlikely, then america theoretically could be drawn into this war because of events like that movement of those territories. i think the more immediate threat is that ukraine attacks russian troops in the annexed territories and then putin escalates with the growing threat of a nuclear response. david? >> an awful turn in this conflict that's already been so awful to begin with. ian pannell, our thanks to you again tonight. >>> in kabul, afghanistan, tonight a suicide attack on a tutoring center, a place where young afghan women were trying to prepare for university. tonight,

seen other hurricanes, but nothin g like this. >> reporter: when hurricane ian hit ft. myers beach, mike was in for the ride of his life. >> very surreal. >> reporter: mike had decided to ride out the storm on his boat docked at this ft. myers beach marina, it is made of steel and has a generator so thought it would be safer than home. >> here is the one, you will see the building that collapsed over there. you can see him running the engines, holding the boats in place. and there is the building. >> reporter: oh, wow, it is right in the water. he had tied the boat he was on to another large boat he owned, both weigh about 50 tons, but even that was no match for hurricane ian. at about 3:00 a.m., all of a sudden mike was lifted up by the force of the water and the with indep wind. >> we didn't get dragged around until the very end. r >> reporter: what was that feeling like? >> it was out of our control, so we were happy we were blown inland because we knew we'd wind up over land, not out in the water sinking, be in real danger. you couldn't see anything. wind was howlin

it's not just hurricane ian that caused widespread damage.ember the administration is still responding to what hurricane ian did to puerto rico. that island, thousands of people still without power. >> absolutely cannot forget puerto rico. thank you so much, boris. >>> so when you look at the extent of the damage, it's easy to see how ian could become the largest natural disaster in florida's history. research estimates ian may have cost $47 billion in insured losses, and as cnn's mark stuart tells us homeowners were already facing an insurance crisis. >> and, amara, this is happening at a time when homeowners in florida long before the storm had to deal with an expensive marketplace. the insurance companies may be reluctant to compete in florida because of hurricane risks and tropical storms some of how are people getting insurance in florida? homeowners are looking toward small in-state companies at a time when six of those companies were declared insolvent even before hurricane ian. but it's not that simple. the cost is enormous. just look

but even that was no match for hurricane ian.a.m., all of a sudden mike was lifted up by the force of the water and the wind. >> we didn't get dragged around until to very end. >> reporter: what was that like being carried along as the storm was going? >> we knew it was out of control at that point so we were happy we were blowing inland because we knew we'd wind up over land and not out in the water sinking. the wind was howling. we knew we were in the parking lot. we didn't know where we were going to stop. >> reporter: in the end after a wild 15 hours mike and his boats, which were still tied together, landed in the street. and while they aren't a total loss, ian sure took a chunk out of this boat mike used for his business, a floating hotel. >> that's cabin six, actually. one of the nicest cabins, had a private deck and were just looking at the wind from that. that even wasn't from a hit. we watched it and the wind as it got more and more peeled the side back. >> reporter: tore it right off. >> yep. >> reporter: so for now mi

ian smacks every place hard., the south carolina coast, places like charleston and pawley's island, police there called flooding catastrophic. >> oh, man! it's washing away! >> reporter: in cherry grove, the local pier washed away into the atlantic. this category 1 hurricane brought misery galore. 85-mile-per-hour winds, up to 85-meven feet of storm surge, and in some spots, eight inches of rain. >> it's still very dangerous, and there are still winds even where there's not much water. >> reporter: and where there's too much water, a half block from myrtle beach itself, we watched this rescue, apartment residents trapped by a moat four feet deep plucked to safety by fire crews. >> it got really bad. we thought we could just, you know-- >> reporter: ride it out. and what happened? >> the generator started smoking. >> reporter: and the water started rising? >> yes. >> reporter: near with the atlantic pours onto ocean boulevard, we rode with master corporal thomas vest. his message to blunt ian's human cost... >> th

was ian's biggest threat here. by the time the storm leaves part of the carolinas could have seen a powerful storm surge of up to seven ft. national guard troops have been on standby to assist with water rescues. the red cross is on the ground, providing aid and resources to hurricane victims, and ktvu and fox are trying to help in that mission. you're invited to join the effort by scanning that q. r code on your screen, fox says donated $1 million to the relief effort, money for shelter, meals, medical supplies and more. well done there. yes and in is certainly not over. it's going to be a contender throughout the entire weekend. we'll show you what it looks like on storm tracker. plus we will take a look at the first weekend for the month of october. and hardly strictly bluegrass is underway in san francisco's golden gate park. we'll take you inside the music festival and give you a taste of all that music. at 5 45 a rescue or resource rather for the people in ukraine, dealing with the trauma of war. but i'm just

and now the reference to ian is now post-tropical ian. and that may sound a bit confusing but there are two ingredients that make it post-tropical. and that is no center of circulation, that very typically we see with hurricanes. although, this one on its second entrance into the north american coast along the central coast of south carolina and georgetown we didn't really so a clearly defined eye, but it still had tropical characteristics because it was a warm core. now it's called a cold core, and it doesn't have a clearly defined eye. so having said all that, we still have some problems. yes, i think the worst is behind us, but i don't want anyone to let their guard down because still the potential for flooding is still here. all the way from north carolina into virginia, that peninsula, there could be substantial rainfall here on the order of 3 to 6 inches. and that may not sound a lot compared to what we saw in the florida peninsula, also south carolina where some of these areas that have become developedthadeveloped that is going to

that tells you how powerful hurricane ian was. you're right, some of the most deadly storms, most ferocious, costliest storms were in the last couple of decades. what does this tell us about climate change? >> it's what scientists have been trying to warn us about for a long time. it's sort of basic 7th grade science physics, which is carbon monoxide captures the heat around our planet every second of every day, the oceans absorb as much as extra heat the size of five hiroshima atomic bombs. there's also sea level rise. greenland is melting like a pop sickle on a hot sidewalk these days. that's not great. climate attribution science finds ian is 10% wetter than it would have been preindustrial revolution, which leads to two feet of rain. yeah, it's all lining up as predicted. but it's not too late for humanity to figure this out. and keep it from getting more horrible. >> yeah. these hurricanes are ringing alarm bells every time they crash ashore. bill weir, thank you very much. great work out here. we appreciate it as always. tha

this is what ian looks like now. this is kind of ultimately the center of that storm bring really heavy rain across parts of west virginia and still flood threat here in some higher elevations and all that water running down into the ravines and pulling water into the southern parts of new england and this stays fairly gloomy with us for today and tomorrow as this storm kind of slowly dies. by monday afternoon, most is fully out of here. i want to show you a couple things. hurricane season and it's a really great scenario, this storm to tell us we have not had an active hurricane season this year and it's not been so active like we thought and a perfect example and takes one, one hurricane can come in a hurricane season and changes everything for people. this will go down as certainly one of our historic storms. 30% of hurricane season remaining about the next month in general is when we will likely see more activity and in the month of october, today's october 1, this is where they start. usually just we get waves t

but even that was no match for hurricane ian.n mike was lifted up by the force of the water and the wind. >> we didn't get dragged around until the very, very end. >> reporter: what was that feeling like being carried along as the storm was going? >> we knew it was out of our control at that point. we were happy we were blowing inland because we knew we would be thrown over land. we knew we were in the parking lot. we didn't know where we would stop. >> reporter: in the end after a wild 15 hours, mike and his boats, which were still tied together, landed in the street. whale they aren't a total loss, ian sure took a chunk out of this boat mike used for his business. a floating hotel. >> that's cabin six, actually. one of the nicest cabins. hit a private deck. that wasn't even from a hit. we were watching it. the wind just started peeling the side back. >> reporter: and tore it right off. so for now mike is staying on the boat that he was on during the storm. he does have a generator on it. he does have water on it. he would like

it was everything ian had wanted to hear, and more.dly, there are too many others similarly affected right now. i hope that this will be an important step in bringing about much—needed change. thank you. i hope that the world will be safer, the digital world particularly, will be a safer place to inhabit. and the final thing i want to say is thank you, molly, for being my daughter. thank you. thank you, everyone, and thank you for all of your coverage. so, after all he has gone through, ian's message for those who are struggling. all i would say is if — if you're in a place — a horrible, low place where you actually to end your life, please reach out to those people that you love. because they would so much rather you did. so, what will molly's legacy be? a safer internet for young people, perhaps. ian russell certainly hopes so. and as for him, he'll carry on campaigning in his daughter's name. she left some notes, which i think we're lucky to have notes after her death because she tried to explain how she felt. "i'm the problem in ev

two branches of rain from what was ian. one of them is moving in towards parts of long island and southern new england and another bit out across parts of west virginia and look quickly at future model throughout the day today and you see kind of those two pieces of energy splitting there a little bit. eventually that one on the left is the one that will move out slower and takes us all the way into monday before it f fully gone. will to you. will: south carolina getting slammed by hurricane ian and leaving more than 60,000 still without power. property destroyed including north myrtle beach and cherry grove pier collapses there from the storm surge. we have south carolina congresswoman nancy mace on the show with us. how is your state this morning? >> we, we're dealing with power outages right now and myself included and charleston dodged a bullet. really the area between charleston and myrtle beach got hammered yesterday with a historic storm surge almost as high as hurricane hugo 31 years ago that was a category 1 surge.

here's post-tropical cyclone ian.e have winds like i said at 35, but as it moved inland, it weakened significantly. we hit that friction of the land and it's completely wiped itself out compared to when it made landfall on the east coast and then, of course, down in florida. so the heavy rain continues to spin onto shore. roanoke and back into parts of the tennessee valley actually topping into some of that moisture. but heavy rain in west virginia back on up into new england. these are areas dealing with the heaviest rain here within the next 48 hours. of course, we actually picked up roughly about, let's say, 4 to 8 inches in some of these locations. you can see it all accumulate here. the reds indicating that heavier rain, but there's still more rain to come. not for these areas. however, these areas are what are under coastal flood advisories and warnings. what that is the wind blowing rain back onto land. there will be 1 to 2 feet of inundation here in the next few hours. again, i want to reiterate water is not s

we were the bullseye for ian for much of the forecast. and as folks know, who lived in florida for a long time, these storms are unpredictable. and i think it's highlighted our need to use the data information correctly and look at that entire cone and not just the center track. when the calls to evacuate come, we really have to heed it. >> i may get my floridian title revoked for not realizing st. petersburg was northwest of ft. myers. thank you for the correction. you noted that cone of unterpbt for hurricane ian was extremely widespread. as you well know, sir, a lot of floridians see a category 3 storm and they often shrug. they don't take it as seriously as a category 4 or 5. i'm wondering how well you think folks were prepared across the person part of florida for this level of devastation, for this size and strength of storm? >> in pinellas county, we were prepared. we have 24 cities in the county. when the county called evacuation, we were all supportive of that. because we know what devastation these storms can bring. and we are e

mike: what's your message to those suffering following hurricane ian?> a lot of people, mike, wonder, is god mad at us and judging us, i want them to know, no, it's not judgment, the storms happen in life and i want people to know that god loves them and cares for them and he hasn't turned his back on us but we do have storms and i want people to know that that anchor in the middle of the storm is jesus christ and i want people to put faith and trust in him. he took our sins an died on the cross and rose from the grave, he didn't come to condemn us but save us. i want people to put faith in him. people need to be comforted. we have van gellist association that go out with us so when we are working in the community weapon chaplains there that can pray with people, talk to them, comfort them while we are working on their homes and cleaning them up. mike: in the gospel of matthew jesÚs tells disciples to deny themselves to take up their cross and follow him. do you feel like that is something that your volunteers are doing today? >> well, no question. we w

he announced he would go on monday after hurricane ian fiona and wednesday after hurricane ian ian. now, last night before that announcement came out, the president gave his well wishes to both places, puerto rico and florida, saying his administration will do whatever it takes. >> our hearts, to state the obvious, are heavy. the devastating had your kahn and storms in puerto rico, florida and south carolina. we owe puerto rico a hell of a lot more than they've already gotten. my administration is working closely with cdc members to do whatever it takes to help search and rescue recovery and rebuilding. it's going to take a long time so we cannot tire. >> so earlier on saturday we know that the president received a briefing on hurricane ian, really focused in florida about the power and water restoration and more about damage reports in south carolina where hurricane ian continues to travel up the east coast. so no doubt we are likely to see the president meet with local officials. we know just over the course of the week that he that an he had separate conversations with republican

cyclone ian not over any time soon. britley ritz from the cnn weather center, thank you so much. fred, as we are monitoring developments, it's clear this will be a long recovery as officials get to areas that were previously inaccessible. it's sad to think the death tole at 45 fatalities because of hurricane ian may rise in the coming days. just a painful admission from a officials there are folks they couldn't get to, fred. >> it's going to be a slow recovery. methodical in their continued search. as you mentioned, the death toll still may climb and, of course, it is still the conditions still remain rather dangerous. thank you so much, boris. we will check back with you. so much more to come this hour. $47 billion. that's the early damage estimate from ian in the state of florida. we'll talk about the complicated process homeowners now face. and right now looking at i-75 near venice, and that's kind of sandwiched in between fort myers and sarasota on the west coast. you see it's nearly gridlock as everyone still tryin

we're back on the scene in the aftermath of hurricane ian., you actually have a home on sanibel island. >> yes. >> and that home is not with us anymore; is that correct? how are things going? . >> home is there. it was pretty nerve-racking. i foolishly stayed on the island because i run a condominium complex on the island and i wanted to make sure everything was okay. we never had the storm surge before. part of the dining room roof collapsed right into the dining room. that's when we started to get concerned. and we had to spend the night there. what also was nerve-racking, the storm surge was five feet high. other areas of the island it was between 7 and 10 feet high. i actually had quite a few people that are in the service industry that did stay on the island. . >> i was going to ask you. you had to be rescued? >> the next day the helicopters were going overhead, and i was standing out there waving. and finally the national guard out of jacksonville, florida, came by in a chip okay and landed in front of the house. they stayed there an ho

you were there as ian made a second landfall. now things look a little different, but of course we want to know about the damage and the aftermath, nick. >> reporter: it's almost night dand when you compare to what happened in florida. there is some significant damage and this is probably the most significant behind me. this is cherry grove pier, which has been here since the 1950s and suffered hurricane damage during hugo, floyd and now hurricane ian. to give a sense of how strong the winds were and how strong that rain was coming through north myrtle beach, this is a chunk of the pier. parts of the pier have washed into the atlanta ocean and other parts washed up onshore. crews are out this morning clearing up debris, assessing the damage. people are without power. i spoke to the emergency management here. they feel like they dodged a bullet. another thing happened, how many people are on the beach curious to see the damage. i say this, i want to pan over here, jonathan, as they are clearing this debris as we are on the air rig

storm-force winds as hurricane ian pounded into florida. we are told after the boat crashed onto that area during the storm surge, tony and his wife actually climbed out of the boat and onto the bridge. so that is how high the storm surge was. you can see the damage it did with five large vessels. you see the scale of it by the people that are standing nearby. just like toys or like dice thrown across a landscape haphazardly. fred, we're seeing scenes just like this one all over southwest florida into central florida as well. the damage from hurricane ian not only widespread but devastating as well. >> and as harrowing as that story is of what tony and his wife experienced, they're also very lucky that, you know, with their boat, you know, being placed somewhere else, afloat, it didn't sink with them on it, but instead got stuck in an area where they were able to walk off and be able to tell that story. but, you know, it really does underscore the variety of reasons why some people either stayed or got stuck with this storm and it continues

>> ian pannell in ukraine tonight. ian, our thanks to you. and we'll have much more of george's interview with secretary of state blinken tomorrow morning right here on "good morning america." >>> to the u.s. now, the alarming rise in the number of children hospitalized with respiratory illness in at least 22 states. this is not covid, so, what is it? and what authorities say parents should now watch for. abc's erielle reshef tonight at connecticut's children's medical center in hartford, where there are plans under way to now set up a field hospital. >> reporter: tonight, children's hospitals are sounding the alarm about a surge in respiratory viruses, some running out of beds, even setting up tents. at connecticut children's in hartford, doctors are planning to work with fema and the national guard on a field hospital. how many children are waiting for beds right now? >> right now, in the emergency department, i believe we have about 14 waiting for inpatient beds. >> reporter: hospitals in at least 22 states are reporting a crush of pediatr

three years ago, we spoke to the ceo, who had this message for ian.rience into a force for change, into a force for good. and for that, i'm grateful. but ian says any reforms came too late for molly and much, much more needs to be done. if this demented trail of life—sucking content was safe, my daughter molly would probably still be alive. and the final thing i want to say... ..is thank you, molly, for being my daughter. thank you. disaffected soldiers in burkina faso say they've carried out a coup, the second this year. a statement read out on national television said an army captain, ibrahim traore, had deposed the military ruler paul—henri damiba and dissolved the government and constitution. as the bbc�*s mayeni jones now reports, protests have broken out across burkina faso over the security situation in the west african county. this is the second coup embassy in afar so injust this is the second coup embassy in afar so in just eight months —— burkina faso in in afar so in just eight months —— burkina faso in 'ust in afar so in just eight months

just to give you a sense of scale of the storms compared to ian, it is about the third the size of ian as it relates to the cloud field and the winds that extend from the center. when it comes to this storm system, only 90 miles from the center you'll feel impact. notice on the immediate, we have tropical storm alerts and hurricane warnings in place. the storm surge threat generally going to remain five to six feet in the highest areas. but essentially what you're looking at is lagoons and sparsely populated region of mexico. about a half a million people. we think the system weakens on approach monday evening with winds around 80 miles per hour. but the impact is going to be localized. maybe heavy rain fall in mazatlan. but we don't expect it to impact a large area. the tropics, quiet but a couple areas of interest, they're a ways out across the ocean. this is excellent news after the week we just had across a large area of florida and the southeast as well with the heavy rains we saw. >> thank you very much. >>> developing news right here in uk right now. prime minister liz truss' go
