churning up 16 foot waves on lake michigan, enough to sink a sailboat near chicago. steady rain still flooding streets across northern new jersey. a state still recovering from the wrath of tropical storm ida, which did heavy damage last month. >> if you're out on our roads and come across a flooded section. please just turn around. >> don't go ahead. sadly, we lost too many people in ida who went ahead. >> tom negovan reporting for us. there is we get a check on the forecast here. yeah. feels like winter is already upon us and we're barely into fall. chief meteorologist lawrence karnow. yeah, really rocking across parts of the u.s. right now. we've got a nor'easter, a full-blown deal now is just beginning to make its way on shore some places they're 4 to 6 inches of rain already and they may get another 2 to 4 overnight. so they're talking about flash flooding. some of the tributaries. they're already flood warnings up and you can see all that moisture wrapping around coming in. now the atlantic. and that's why it's called a nor'easter. you see the core low just off

during theci lake michigan, the heavy icebreaker was not available and smaller cutters struggled to break through that. while the coast guard eventually accomplished the current assets of the second heavy icebreaker had been available, the coast guard could have provided. would you agree? >> i don't have the specifics. more capacity and a bigger breaker depending on. i think additional capacity and capability is a positive that could lend to better outcomes. now i want to turn to the importance of the by america policies. initial procurement costs for programs like shipbuilding are only a part of the lifecycle cost. in fact, probably less than one third of the cost of sustainment being a significant portion of the overall cost over the last 18 months we've also seen complications arising from the disruptions in the supply chains when foreign sources are involved. with nearly all of the assets undergoing transition to new platforms thishe is an opportuny to assess how the coast guard is makingla acquisition decisions with lifecycle costs and the health of the industrial basengn mind. some

chicago is right on lake michigan. south of lake michigan is indiana.e saying just come over the state line. and we will let you work here at some of our police departments and you will not have to get vaccinated. brian: delta variant is dipping going down in almost 40 states. there is no reason for this type of conflict. many of these men and women already had the virus knowingly or unknowingly, they have the antibodies. they have to get the antibody test and they are beginning to get them andrew said. also they estimated 72% of the nypd is vaccinated. 83% of city workers are vaccinated. is it really worth it to you to fire all these great people, 18% and then just 17%. is it worth it for you to fire all these people, destroy their careers and their lives because you want 100 percent compliance? that is not true in any walk of life ever and many of which have natural immunity that you refuse to take into account. ainsley: can't we compromise? brian: no. ainsley: individuals given up so much. 9/11 firefighters. brian: teachers. ainsley: exactly there ha

with only if -- within a few years, we have seen record high and record low lake levels at lake michigan we continue to see this among the highest level of heat and precipitation levels in the region. beyond our climate change is affecting virtually every corner of the globe and every area of our lives. they rightfully note that parts of the world least response will for emitting gases are most at risk from the effects of climate change. the consequence of climate change including food insecurity, economic -- problems will have forced migrations to force all people at risk. the work by each of the agencies is represented today. they will address these challenges. it is not enough to respond to the effects of climate change. we have to affect the cause of the climate change. that is why the paris agreements is doing everything we can to achieve our goals. late next week i will reduce a resolution to our commitment for a climate negotiation. it is an important legislation. how is this year different than the past conferences? >> ella jump and having attended many of these conferences in th

during the lake michigan ice jam caused flooding last winter, the coast guard's only great lakes heavy icebreaker was not available and smaller ice breaking cutters struggled to break through that ice jam. while the coast guard eventually accomplished their mission with the current assets, if a second heavy icebreaker had been available last winter the coast guard could have provided more flood relief more quickly. would you agree? >> senator, i don't have -- all the specifics around that. i would say, clearly, more capacity and a bigger breaker versus a small breaker, that is sort of common sense i would say depending on what is going on at the time we could find one breaker and one part of the great lakes having sailed up there it is quite a great distance but additional capacity, heavy capacity, capability, is probably a positive there that could lend to better outcomes, yes. >> thank you, admiral. now i wanted to turn to the importance of buy america policies. initial procurement costs for major programs like ship building are only a part of the total life cycle cost. in fact, prob
