former governor ron desantis briefed reporters on hurricane dorian. he also addressed news reports and how funding would impact this rate. >> good morning. i want to thank ken graham, national hurricane center director for showing us around and giving us his insight. as you know, i recently issued executive order 19, 189, regarding hurricane dorian. declared a state of emergency in 26 counties in the state of florida. we will be likely adding to that in light of some of the additional forecasts. one of the additional things the state allows us to do is to get more fuel into the gas stations. we have heard reports of field shortages already in places like brevard county. this order allows more fuel to come. it allows us to mobilize the national guard. we are working with -- with a track like this, it is uncertain where to deploy them. the national guard is going to be on deck. i spoke president trump yesterday. he assured me the president -- the federal government will be with us every step of the way, supporting us in every way they can. i spoke with

governor ron desantis taking no chances as this catastrophic storm churns toward the coast. jillian: donald trump changes his plans. >> lots of people are getting out of florida today including $40 million worth of aircraft now being flown to kansas or moving all that stuff out. dorian downed lots of treason the us virgin islands. by the time it reaches central florida on labor day it is expected to be possibly a dangerous category 4 hurricane. the governor, ron desantis asking folks to act now, don't wait and people are listening. >> heading north. i don't want to be on the road for people who have to do mandatory evacuation. >> the storm coming. >> to get flights out everything was booked up. >> folks stopping up on stand bags, gas, food, empty store shelves, if you loves of bread left. the president making the decision to skip his poland trip to ensure the safety of americans. >> our highest priority is the safety and security of people in the path of the hurricane. it is something very important for me to be here. this storm looks like it could be a very big one indeed.

here is governor ron desantis just a short time ago. >> this is potentially a

but as you mentioned, governor ron desantis announcing that there are shortages in the state. one of the things that does help is the fact that because he issued a state of emergency in all 67 counties of florida -- i'll move out of the way because there's a lot of traffic as people move around. what helps, fred, is that that eases the rules and allows more gas to flow into the state. from talking to a few people here, we just arrived so i haven't talked to a lot of people. they have mentioned that they are filling up either because they are leaving to another area now, they're preparing to evacuate, other people are filling up gas tanks as well, fred. so just overall preparedness ahead of the hurricane. >> can't be too prepared. rosa flores, thank you so much. we'll check back with you as needed. >>> hurricane dorian is expected to have a major impact on airports ahead of this holiday weekend. cnn's dianne gallagher is live for us at the orlando international airport. what are you experiencing there? >> reporter: so to be very honest, it's actually a pretty nice travel day, e

ron desantis. he spoke longer than that.s talking about, he's saying they have notified the white house, they have notified fema trying to get a beat on what they need down there in florida. what he has not done yet is give any evacuation orders because quite frankly as we talked about with rick leventhal, they don't know where to send people. you do not want to send people in to the storm. if you don't know where the storm is going, that's tough. it's labor day weekend. you have people that are planning to go to miami beach, ft. lauderdale, daytona beach all to jacksonville. right now you know there's a lot of plans on hold. disney still open. but it's moment by moment. so the question becomes, when do you pull the trigger to say you got to evacuate. that time is coming because the last thing you want is to leave people stranded and have them sit and, you know, wait this storm out. we'll keep you updated. that's a live look at miami beach right now. it's pristine. a category three storm already potentially category four is

we just heard from the republican governor ron desantis as preparations are being made. already schools closing as well. west palm beach florida which is in the current path of the storm, rosa, tell me how folks are taking this there? >> reporter: i just talked to a woman who was in tears. her name debra thomas, 69 years of age. see says she remembers hurricane andrew very clearly shooch she said she described it as its aftermath as an atomic bomb hitting homestead. she lives in a mobile home so she was here buying batteries and board to board up her home. >> i live in a mobile home, so i stand to be homeless but that's not really what's worried me. i have animals. i can replace my home, but i can't my animals. i've been through this a couple of times in the last 15 years and this is the worst so far. >> reporter: and she plans to ride out the storm with her daughter in an actual house, but she also said if an evacuation order is issued, that she does not plan to evacuate. i want to show you around because home depot has been very busy today. there's been a lot of speed

i am absolutely confident in ron desantis's leadership from miami to jacksonville. i give the president a lot of credit for declaring this a federal emergency when the storm is offshore meaning fema, department of transportation, the military and entire federal government keep moving those assets and the locals, this is important, local officials, the confidence that they can spend the funds out of their budget and later be reimbursed by fema. i love how it seems like his job is easy. i want to give kudos to the florida national guard. they have units just coming in from training, they don't get to go home or take care of their own businesses, they are going out to take care of us, my hat is off to them. one other thing, floridians in my district and so many others, not trying to guess where the storm is going. everyone needs to prepare. if you're over prepared that is okay because this thing is dangerous and we have to be ready. floridians are resilient and have no doubt they will be. shannon: taking the windows, filling the best up with water, a lot of times the s

florida governor ron desantis this morning touring facilities across the state. with the path of the storm uncertain, local officials have to try to figure out how to make sure people don't evacuate too soon and head into the path of the hurricane. president trump canceled his trip to poland to monitor dorian's developments. joining me now, michelle grossman in new york. what do we know about the path? is it any clearer? >> it looks to be somewhere along the eastern coast. we have a cone uncertainty. it will take a few days to hone in, but it looks now that the possibility is in parts of southern florida. the biggest take away is it's starting to slow down. we'll see it dasticalslow down miles per hour. that's a walking pace. we'll see a lot of flooding rains there. let's take you to the latest advisory, category 2 storm, it's getting closer, but it's friday. we're not expecting it to make landfall until tuesday. we're looking at winds at 110 miles per hour. nothing to shake out. it's a powerful storm now, it's only going to get more powerful as we go through the

florida governor ron desantis is about to give an update right now on the storm. we will watch for that. desantis already announced this morning he is calling up 2,000 plus national guard troops and that the state is clearing roadways and stocking emergency fuel. nearly a million gallons of bottled water and nearly 2 million meals are stashed in orlando at a distribution center. as of this moment, there are 79 counties across two states under states of emergency, and right now there is no mandatory evacuation in place. but the governor says that might change. forecasters expect the slow-moving storm to get stronger as it trudges through the bahamas and then heads towards florida and the coastline there. some residents are franticly prepping, emptying grocery store shelves, clearing out hoeme improvement stores of plywood. this woman explains the stakes. >> i live in a mobile home so i stand to be homeless, but that's not really that's worrying me. i have animals. i can replace my home, but i can't my animals. i've been through this a couple times in the last 15 ye

florida governor ron desantis declared a state of emergency and is working on bringing in more fuel asoaches. rick leventhal live at cape canaveral, florida, with more on the state preparations. rick? reporter: we're down in delray beach, charles. i can add to rick's reporting. according to one forecast map, if this storm follows that track, hits the central florida coast as a four, it could hit downtown orlando as a category 1 hurricane. think about what that, what kind of damage that might cause. the other key point here, charles, is that the storm is slowing down. it is gaining in strength but moving forward at a slower speed. once it hits land, moving slower, more rain, more high wind, for longer periods of time, perhaps up to 36 hours of hurricane strength winds on the ground in the state of florida before it moves out. that means even longer for first-responders and others to get to those hardest hit areas. a nightmare scenario, when you consider high storm surge, possibility of up to a foot or more of rain. so of course floridians, are getting ready. they're stocking up on food,

florida's governor ron desantis holding a briefing on hurricane dorian. we are monitoring for headlines. any big news, we will bring it to you real fast. that is a promise. >>> president trump taking a shot at general motors this morning on twitter. what's he saying? ashley: he says general motors which was once, he says, the giant of detroit, is now one of the smallest auto manufacturers there. they moved major plants to china before i came into office, in capital letters, there you go. this was done despite the saving help given them by the usa. now they should start moving back to america again, question mark. stuart: general motors still owes the treasury i think $11 billion to $12 billion from the bailout. ashley: correct. stuart: thanks, ash. look, the continuing stock market rally, that is the top financial story of the day. yes, we are going up again this morning. come in, john allison. look, john, i say the markets just want to go up. are you with me on this? >> actually, stuart, i'm with you that it wants to go up, it wants a wonderful excuse to

so we have a great governor in the state of florida, ron desantis.e calls me up, doing a great job, and he was at three and he went to 70. that's a pretty good increase, right? ron desantis, a great governor, he comes to me and he goes, you know, if you buy the drugs, if we buy the drugs, because this is so botched up, we have a middle man, it's not a good situation. he said if i could go and buy the drugs from canada, i could save 50%. i said, do it. do it! and if you can buy them fromid like, like, remember, used to scream when i was winning states, not getting the delegates that i was entitled to, and i say, the system is rigged. well, the drug system is rigged. it's rigged. so if we can buy the same drugs made by the same pharmaceutical company from europe or from canada or from other places, at a big, deep discount, we are doing it and we are giving them the right to do it.

governor ron desantis declaring a state of emergency. straight to the fox news extreme weather center, we have the newest update. >> hurricane season last 6 months or less but the bulk of that activity happens in this period from august 20th until just around 1 october so we are solidly in the most active period of hurricane season and we had this storm moved through in-hospital area in the northeastern caribbean and still held together because it didn't make any direct landfall in puerto rico, didn't have any landmass so it exits to the north of the caribbean really well in fact, the structure of a hurricane that will allow it to strengthen and that is why our forecasting does show the likelihood for this to strengthen to a major hurricane before it makes landfall. that said we do not have amazing skills yet in forecast the intensity of hurricane so there's a lot of variability how this could end up. here you go, that's where the storm is, 90 miles north of san juan, puerto rico. there will be a few more showers but for the most part yo
