>> THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT SHE IS DOING MUCH BETTER. >> YES. IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU. >> THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. WE BEGIN WITH THE FOURTH INDICTMENT FROM FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP OVER AN ATTEMPT TO OVERTURN ELECTION RESULTS. >> HE IS CHARGED WITH RACKETEERING AND CONSPIRACY. THEY HAVE UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY, NINE DAYS FROM NOW TO SURRENDER OR FACE ARREST. THERE ARE DETAILS ABOUT THAT WHAT PROCESS COULD LOOK LIKE. IT COMES AS TRUMP SAYS HE WILL HAVE AN IRREFUTABLE REPORT OF ELECTION FRAUD IN GEORGIA NEXT MONDAY WITHOUT PROVIDING EVIDENCE OF WHAT THAT COULD INCLUDE. WE SPOKE WITH VOTERS IN GEORGIA ABOUT THE WAY THE CHARGE IS HANDED DOWN TO THE FORMER PRESIDENT. >> I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME HE WAS EVALUATED. HE HAS BEEN INVESTIGATED FOR A LONG TIME. IT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE AND HE NEEDS TO GO TO TRIAL ON IT. >> YOU 74 MILLION SUPPORTERS. I DON'T THINK HE BELONGS IN JAIL. I THINK GIULIANI AND HIS COHORTS BELONG IN JAIL. >> AND OUR ANCHOR JOINS US NOW FROM ATLANTA. THE COUNTDOWN IS ON TO NEXT WEEK'S DEADLINE TO SURRENDER. FULTON COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE PROVIDED DETAILS ABOUT WHAT THAT PROCESS COULD LOOK LIKE. IT IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PREVIOUS INDICTMENTS HE RECEIVED. TELL US WHAT WE CAN EXPECT. >> Reporter: SO WE GOT SOME GUIDANCE YESTERDAY FROM THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE INDICATING THAT ALL 19 DEFENDANTS, THERE IS NO CARVEOUT FOR FORMER PRESIDENT THAT THEY ARE ALL GOING TO TURN THEMSELVES IN TO THE JAIL JUST A COUPLE BLOCKS AWAY FROM WHERE WE ARE. WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT? >> IS A TWO-STEP PROCESS AND YOU POST BOND AND THEN YOU HAVE AN ARRAIGNMENT. THAT SHOULD STILL HAPPEN. BEING WE HAVE A FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES INVOLVED THERE COULD BE SOME DIFFERENCE IN HOW THAT GOES DOWN. RIGHT NOW, THE JAIL IS OPEN 24 SEVEN. THEY DON'T KEEP BANKERS HOURS. PEOPLE COULD COME IN AS EARLY AS TODAY WITH LITTLE TO NO FANFARE THAT WOULD BE EXPECTED FOR SOMEBODY LIKE FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. >> HE IS STILL DIGGING HIS HEELS INTO THIS CLAIM. THERE IS A NEWS CONFERENCE COMING UP SOON. WHAT ABOUT BRIAN KEMP? WHAT IS HIS RESPONSE? >> YES. SO BRIAN IS ONE OF SEVERAL REPUBLICANS THAT WE KNOW ABOUT LIKE ROETHLISBERGER AND JEFF DUNCAN WHO TESTIFIED FOR MANY HOURS IN FRONT OF THE GRAND JURY BEFORE THE COURT. HE SAID THERE WAS NO ELECTION FRAUD SO BRIAN KEMP TAKES A VERY DIFFERENT POSITION THAN FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. HE PROMISED TOTAL EXONERATION WHEN HE HAS HIS PRESS CONFERENCE. A LOT OF PEOPLE ALSO SAY HE PROMISED AN INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN AND EVERYBODY STILL WAITING FOR THAT. >> HE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE INDICTED. 18 OTHERS WERE ALSO INDICTED. WHAT ARE THE REACTIONS WE HEAR FROM OTHERS INDICTED SPECIFICALLY HIS CHIEF OF STAFF AND HIS FORMER LAWYER? >> YES. SO WE ARE GETTING A LEGAL RESPONSE FROM MARK MEADOWS, THE FORMER CHIEF OF STAFF AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS TRYING TO REMOVE HIS CASE TO FEDERAL COURT AND WE ARE HEARING LOCALLY FROM GIULIANI AND WE HAVE SOME SOUND FROM HIM. WE CAN TAKE A LISTEN TO THAT NOW. >> IT'S A RIDICULOUS APPLICATION FOR RACKETEERING. NO ONE KNOWS IT BETTER THAN I DO. I WAS THE FIRST ONE TO HEAR THAT. IN MAJOR CASES, THIS IS NOT MEANT FOR ELECTION DISPUTES. IT'S RIDICULOUS WHAT SHE IS DOING. >> >> Reporter: THE PROBLEM IS THAT HE IS ADMITTING IN CIVIL LITIGATION THAT SUED HIM FOR DEFAMATION HE ACCUSED THEM OF FRAUD DURING THE ELECTION COVERAGE AND PROCESS. HE ACTUALLY ADMITTED THAT HE KNOWS IT WAS ALIVE, WHAT HE SAID ABOUT THEM SO I DON'T KNOW HOW HE PLANS TO RECONCILE THAT. RICO DOESN'T APPLY TO HIM? WE HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN A COURT OF LAW, NOT IN A COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION. EXPECT MORE AND MORE STATEMENTS COMING OUT FROM MORE DEFENDANTS. >> OKAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> AMONG THE CHARGES FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS FACING IS VIOLATING THE RICO ACT. WE WILL BREAK DOWN WHAT THESE CHARGES ARE AND HOW PROSECUTORS ARE USING THEM AGAINST TRUMP. WHAT DOES THE GODFATHER HAVE TO DO WITH THE CHARGES AGAINST FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP? >> MAKE HIM AN OFFER HE CAN'T REFUSE. >> IT'S ALL ABOUT RICO. IT'S THE RACKETEERING INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATION ACT. A LAW THAT THREE DOZEN STATES COPIED FOR A SPECIFIC KIND OF CRIME. >> IN MY IN THE MAFIA? >> YES, ORGANIZED CRIME. IN THE 60s THE SENATE HELD HEARINGS WHEN WE HAS BECOME A SERIOUS PROBLEM THE CORRUPT INFLUENCE OF THE MAFIA. >> HE HAD THE KNIFE AND THE GUN ON THE TABLE. >> THE HEARINGS WERE DRAMATIC. THEY HAD A FAMILY AT THE CENTER OF THE GODFATHER MOVIE. >> I TOLD YOU I CAN HANDLE IT AND I WILL HANDLE IT. >> Reporter: CONGRESS PASSED THE RICO ACT. INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BUST A CRIMINAL GROUP PERSON BY PERSON AND CRIME BY CRIME, PROSECUTORS CAN SWEEP MULTIPLE PEOPLE INTO ONE BUCKET AND THEN THEY HAVE TO PROVE THE PEOPLE IN THE BUCKET ARE WORKING FOR AN ENTERPRISE TO SET UP A SCHEME AND TWO UNDERLYING CRIMES WERE COMMITTED TO FURTHER THAT SCHEME INCLUDING MURDER, BRIBERY , EXTORTION AND THE BOSS IS NOT IMMUNE. >> OFTEN IT IS A WINK AND A NOD AND EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT THE BOSS WANTS AND GOES OUT AND DOES THAT AND THOSE CAN BE CRIMES AND PROSECUTED. >> >> Reporter: THE LOW WAS SIGNED IN 1970. IT WAS USED IN NEW YORK AND PIONEERED TO BREAK UP THE FIVE FAMILIES THAT THE CITY'S MAFIA TOOK DOWN LATER TAKING DOWN JOHN GOTTI. RUDY GIULIANI WAS IN CHARGE OF THAT. HE NOW FACES CHARGES HIMSELF UNDER THE LAW. EXECUTIVES ALSO FACED RICO CHARGES. SO WHAT HOW DOES IT APPLY TO FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. MR. TRUMP AND 18 ALLIES ARE ACCUSED OF AN ENTERPRISE THAT IS CRIMINAL AND A SCHEME TO ILLEGALLY CHANGE THE OUTCOME OF THE ELECTION HE LOST. THEY DON'T HAVE TO SAY IT IS RELATED TO THE MAFIA BUT TWO UNDERLYING CRIMES HAVE TO BE COMMITTED. THEY CITE DOZENS OF CRIMES LIKE WITNESS INTIMIDATION, FALSE STATEMENTS AND FORGERY. >> THANK YOU FOR THAT EXPLAINER. NOW WITH OUR PERSPECTIVE LET'S BRING IN OUR LEGAL ANALYST. IT'S GREAT TO HAVE YOU. AS WE JUST HEARD, PROSECUTORS HAVE TO PROVE TWO UNDERLYING CRIMES WERE COMMITTED TO FURTHER THE SCHEME. WALK US THROUGH PROVING THAT AND HOW DIFFICULT IS THAT GOING TO BE? >> 20 ENUMERATED ACTS UNDER THE STATUTE QUALIFY FOR THOSE CRIMES. THERE IS CONFUSION BECAUSE THESE ARE RELEVANT TO WHAT IS CALLED A CONSPIRACY. FOR THESE CHARGES YOU NEED THE ENTERPRISE WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY THE CAMPAIGN IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE A COMPANY OR THE MAFIA, IT CAN BE ANY GROUP. THEN, WHEN YOU GET TO THE ISSUE OF THE OVERACTIVE CONSPIRACY IS AN AGREEMENT TO ACHIEVE AN UNLAWFUL OBJECTIVE. THERE ARE SEVERAL CONSPIRACIES CHARGE. TWO COUNTS HERE AND TWO COUNTS HERE AND IT'S CONSPIRACY ALL OVER THIS INDICTMENT. AS MUCH AS RICO IS SIGNIFICANT SO IS CONSPIRACY. IT REQUIRES EVIDENCE THAT THERE WAS A IN AGREEMENT. CRIMINALS DON'T WRITE DOWN UNLAWFUL AGREEMENTS. IT IS INCURRED AND HAPPENS ALL THE TIME IN DRUG CASES. FOR RICO YOU NEED TO CRIMES. THEY HAVE CONDUCT AROUND THAT CRIME. >> IT'S A CATCHALL CHARGE. WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN FEDERAL CHARGES. HOW LIKELY IS THIS TO OVERLAP INTO FEDERAL CHARGES? DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO ROLL THEM ALTOGETHER? >> YOU CANNOT. YOU CANNOT ROAM THE STATE COURT CASE INTO A FEDERAL CASE BECAUSE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS NO JURISDICTION FOR STATE CRIMES. YOU WILL SEE CRIMES ALLEGED IN THE INDICTMENT BUT IT SOUNDS SIMILAR TO FEDERAL CRIMES BUT THEY ARE DIFFERENT STATUTES AND NEVER SHYLY MEET BECAUSE EACH SOVEREIGN JURORS DICTION CANNOT PROSECUTE THE OTHERS CRIMES. THESE ARE SEPARATE KINGDOMS AND THEY WOULD BE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THE STATE GOVERNMENT AND SO THAT IS WHY THEY CAN PROSECUTE CRIMES THAT MAY SOUND AND SMELL AND FEEL VERY SIMILAR, BUT THERE IS NOÃ JEOPARDY ISSUE. AND THERE IS THE POLICY OF NOT PROSECUTING IF THEY THINK THE STATE CRIMES ARE ADEQUATE. DAY BREAK THAT PROCEDURE ALL THE TIME SO IT DOESN'T MATTER. THEY CAN CHARGE IN THEIR OWN COURT AND NEITHER CAN CHARGE FOR THE OTHERS CRIMES. >> MOVING TO A FEDERAL COURT IS WHAT MARK MEADOWS IS TRYING TO DO. EXPLAIN THAT TO US? IS IT JUST ABOUT GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION? HOW LIKELY IS ADJUDGED TO GRAB THAT REQUEST? >> IT'S A RARE EXCEPTION WHERE YOU ARE NOT WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PROSECUTING THESE CRIMES. REMOVAL IS BASICALLY LIKE A TACTICAL MOVE WHERE DEFENDANT CAN TAKE HIS CASE AND AUTOMATICALLY SEND IT UP TO FEDERAL COURT GIVING THE DEFENDANT HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE. HERE ARE SOME DIFFERENCES THAT MAY SOUND MINOR BUT ARE SIGNIFICANT. YOU TAKE A PROSECUTOR OUT OF THE COURT THAT THEY KNOW SO WELL AND ARE SO FAMILIAR WITH AND PUT THEM IN FEDERAL COURT WHICH IS ALIEN TO THEM. YOU WILL ALWAYS DRAW FROM A LARGER GEOGRAPHIC POOL FOR YOUR JURY POOL. THAT COULD BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT STRATEGIC MOVE IF IT STAYS IN FEDERAL COURT, I DON'T THINK IT WILL BUT THAT COULD MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WINNING THE LOST FOR DEFENDANTS. >> OKAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> NOW TO THE WILDFIRES. FEMA MEMBERS GET A FIRSTHAND LOOK AT THE DAMAGE. THE WILDFIRES LEFT AT LEAST 106 PEOPLE DEAD ACROSS THESE DATA SYSTEMS ALLOW FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF VICTIMS. 2700 STRUCTURES HAVE BEEN DESTROYED AND IT IS UNCLEAR WHAT SPARKED THIS WILDFIRE. THERE IS FEDERAL SUPPORT FOR RECOVERY. >> I SPOKE TO THE GOVERNOR MOAN NUMBER OF TIMES IN ASSURED HIS STATE THEY WILL HAVE EVERYTHING THEY NEED. THIS TAKES TIME. IT'S NERVE-RACKING. MOST OF THEM CAN MOVE UNTIL THE SUMMER. >> THE PRESIDENT SAYS HE AND FIRST LADY PLAN TO TRAVEL TO HAWAII. A LITTLE BIT OF HOPE. THIS IS A TREE GETTING WATERED. OFFICIALS BELIEVE THE TREES WILL SURVIVE AND WE ARE LIVE FROM MAUI WITH THE LATEST. GOOD MORNING. LET'S START WITH FEMA ON THE GROUND. TELL US ABOUT THE TOUR OF THE DAMAGE ON THE EFFORTS BY THE GOVERNMENT TO TRY TO GET PEOPLE BACK ON THEIR FEET ESPECIALLY WHEN HAWAIIANS THEMSELVES ARE BETTING ON THIS RESOURCE CHAIN AND RESCUING OTHER PEOPLE. TELL US. >> WELL, WE WENT DOWN TO THE BURN ZONE YESTERDAY AND GAVE US A TOUR OF HOW LARGE THE SCALE OF THEIR SEARCH AND REFERENCE YOU EFFORT IS. THEY ARE SEARCHING BLOCK BY BLOCK AND BUILDING BY BUILDING. THEY HAVE COVERED 7% OF THE BURN AREA AND THE DEATH TOLL STANDS AT 106. THAT NUMBER IS WITHOUT QUESTION GOING TO RISE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THE QUESTION IS HOW HIGH WILL IT GO? EVERY DAY THEY FIND WHAT APPEARS TO BE BODIES IN THE WRECKAGE FIELD AND THEY ARE WORKING ALL DAY LONG WITH CADAVER DOGS TO MAKE ITS OWN BODIES THERE. THE WIND SPEED AND FIRE WAS MOVING AT ABOUT 80 MILES PER HOUR WHAT IT BLEW THROUGH THE AREA. THAT IS HOW QUICKLY IT INCINERATED EVERYTHING IN ITS PATH. THAT IS GOING TO TAKE WEEKS TO COMPLETE, THEY WILL IDENTIFY WHAT OUR BODIES AND REMAINS OF PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES. >> AND THE GOVERNOR MADE COMMENTS. HE CLARIFIED SOMETHING HE SAID ABOUT CALLING FOR HOLD ON SALES OF LAND TO NONRESIDENTS. TELL US ABOUT THAT. >> Reporter: THERE HAS BEEN TALK ABOUT RESIDENTS WHO LOST THEIR HOMES AND SOME PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE LOST THEIR HOMES BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ALLOWED INTO THE BURNS ON. THEY HAVE BEEN GETTING CALLS FROM PEOPLE ASKING TO BUY THEIR PROPERTY BEFORE THEY COULD EVEN SEE IT. THEY SAY HAWAIIAN PEOPLE WILL BE PUSHED OUT BY PEOPLE WITH DEEP POCKETS WHO WANT TO REBUILD THIS AREA AND PUT LUXURY HOMES IN THE AREA AND THIS IS WHAT THE GOVERNOR HAD TO SAY. >> Reporter: WE WILL BE FOR LOCAL PEOPLE. WE APPRECIATE THE INCREDIBLE GENEROSITY DEMONSTRATING THAT MOST, 99.99% OF EVERYONE WATCHING IS HOPING AND THEY WANT TO SUPPORT AND LOVE THE PEOPLE OF MAUI AND HAWAII. IT IS MY JOB TO LOOK OUT FOR THOSE WHO MIGHT TAKE ADVANTAGE. >> SO THE REBUILDING PROCESS IS STILL MONTHS AWAY. CLEANUP HAS NOT EVEN STARTED. THEY HAVEN'T EVEN DISCUSSED IT. THEY'RE TAKING ALL OF THESE CONCERNS VERY SERIOUSLY. >> BEFORE I LET YOU GO LET'S TALK ABOUT THESE LAWSUITS. THERE ARE WILDFIRES. EXPLAIN WHAT THEY CLAIM AGAINST THE UTILITY COMPANY AND RESPONSES YOU HAVE HEARD. >> THERE ARE THREE CLASS-ACTION LAW SUITS AGAINST HAWAIIAN ELECTION. THEY FAILED TO SHUT OFF THE POWER AND THERE HAVE BEEN CLAIMS BY SOME RESIDENTS THAT DOWNED POWER LINES WERE SPARKING BRUSHFIRES AND THAT IS UNDER INVESTIGATION. THE FBI'S ON THE GROUND AND LEADING THE INVESTIGATION. THERE HAS BEEN NO OFFICIAL CAUSE FOR THE FIRE AND THAT COULD TAKE WEEKS OR MONTHS. >> THANK YOU. >>> IT WAS JUST OVER ONE WEEK AGO THAT FLAMES DESCENDED CHANGING THE COURSE OF HISTORY FOREVER. OUR CORRESPONDENT TAKES A LOOK BACK AT HOW WE GOT HERE INCLUDING SOME OF THE EARLY WARNING SIGNS. >> IT COULD TAKE MONTHS OR YEARS OF INVESTIGATION TO DETERMINE CAUSES OF THE FIRES MISTAKES MADE AND A TIMELINE OF EVENTS. THIS IS THE BEST REPORTING WE HAVE RIGHT NOW. THIS IS A PICTURE OF CHAOS AND MISSED OPPORTUNITIES TO SAVE LIVES. >> THIS FIRE STORY STARTS WITH THE WIND. WE ARE GOING TO ZOOM OUT TO TWO DAYS BEFORE MAUI WAS ALL OF FLAMES. >> THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAVE US THE RED FLAG WARNING. >> Reporter: SUNDAY, AUGUST 6. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ISSUES A WEATHER WATCH FOR FIRE. THIS BROUGHT ON BY HURRICANE DOOR. ON AUGUST 8 SMALL FIRES BREAK OUT INCLUDING ONE ABOUT A MILE AND A HALF FROM THE OCEAN. THOSE FIRES WERE 100% CONTAINED A FEW HOURS LATER BUT THE WIND WHIPPED TREES, ROOF TILES AND POWER LINES. SOME THEY'D ENERGIZE. >> AT 3:15 THE FIRE GROW SO LARGE THAT IT CAN BE SEEN FROM SPACE. >> THE SCENE IS ONE MILE AWAY FROM THE OCEAN BUT THE FIRE WAS MOVING FAST AND THERE WERE ACRES UPON ACRES OF NON-NATIVE GRASSES AHEAD OF IT. FIRST RESPONDERS TRIED TO KEEP UP WITH THE FLAMES. >> I SAW ONE PERSON DEAD ON THE GROUND. STATE OFFICIALS SAID EMERGENCY SIGNALS DID NOT SOUND. THERE IS NO EVACUATION OF CROWDED EVACUATION AREAS AND THEN FIRE STARTED OVERWHELMING NEIGHBORHOODS. EVACUATION CAME AT 5:50 P.M. RESIDENCE HAD ALREADY STARTED TAKING MATTERS INTO THEIR OWN HANDS. >> EVERY SECOND SEEMED LIKE AN HOUR OF WAITING. >> SOME WENT INTO THE OCEAN OR SWIMMING POOLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INFERNO. HOMES AND LIVELIHOODS AS WELL AS LIVES HAVE BEEN CLAIMED. THIS IS THE DEADLIEST NATURAL DISASTER IN THE STATES HISTORY. >> NOW TROPICAL SYSTEM THAT COULD HAVE AN IMPACT ON HAWAII. >> NOW WE HAVE THE LATEST. >> WE HAVE A COUPLE OF THINGS WE ARE WATCHING IN THE EASTERN PACIFIC. TROPICAL STORM GREG IS SITTING TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS. NOT QUITE AS STRONG OR ORGANIZED AS HURRICANE DOOR WAS LAST WEEK WHEN ALL OF THIS UNFOLDED. STILL, THAT SYSTEM AND TO THE NORTH IT IS JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE BREEZY THAN NORMAL. TRADE WINDS ARE ELEVATED ACROSS THE ISLANDS AT LEAST FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. BY THE TIME WE GET INTO FRIDAY, THAT WILL COME DOWN AND WE WILL SEE QUIETER CONDITIONS AND MAYBE SOME PASSING SHOWERS. FOR THE END OF THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK WE COULD ADD ADDITIONAL TROPICAL MOISTURE FROM HURRICANE FERNANDO. IT WILL BECOME A REMNANT LOW AND IT COULD BRING SOME ADDITIONAL MOISTURE AND THAT WOULD BE GOOD OR THOSE THAT ARE STILL FIGHTING SOME FIRES. AND INVEST 90 E IS OFF THE COAST OF MEXICO AND HAS A CHANCE OF DEVELOPING. WERE TALKING ABOUT A TROPICAL DEPRESSION. IT COULD EVENTUALLY BRING US SOME ADDED MOISTURE FOR PEOPLE IN THE SOUTHWESTERN DESERT PARTS OF THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. WE WILL WAIT AND SEE HOW THIS UNFOLDS AS WE GET INTO THE END OF THE WEEKEND BUT WE COULD BE TALKING ABOUT SOME RAIN IN THE FORECAST FOR PEOPLE THERE. WE HAVE SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS THE SAME REGION AND SHOWERS ACROSS PARTS OF THE NORTHEAST OF NEW ENGLAND AND WE WOKE UP WITH SOGGY CONDITIONS ON I-95. THERE ARE THUNDERSTORMS LEFT OVER IN THE SOUTHEAST. THAT IS WHERE WE FIND UNSETTLED WEATHERED. THIS COLD FRONT BROUGHT US SOME UNSETTLED WEATHER YESTERDAY. TODAY WE WILL KEEP SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS THAT AREA AS THAT FRONT WASHES AWAY AND WE HAVE THUNDERSTORMS THAT COULD DEVELOP ON THAT SYSTEM AS WE GO INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS TONIGHT AND INTO TONIGHT. FOR TOMORROW THAT WILL MOVE TO THE EAST AND BRING US SOME GREAT LAKE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO BE AWARE OF. 5 MILLION PEOPLE AT RISK WITH WINDS UP TO 60 MILES PER HOUR. IT INCLUDES MAJOR CITIES. MINNEAPOLIS AND DULUTH AND THIS IS LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. FOR TOMORROW THE SEVERE THREAT IS NOT AS GREAT. IT INCLUDES INDIANAPOLIS AND LOWER PORTIONS OF MICHIGAN. THE SAME KIND OF THREAT, WIND, HAIL AND A TORNADO THREAT IS LOW. IT WILL SEE SOME ADDED RAINFALL IN WE COULD HAVE FLOODING CONCERNS IN SAVANNAH AND CHARLESTON, THE MID-ATLANTIC. AND THEN FROM BURLINGTON TO DETROIT AND THROUGH MINNEAPOLIS WE COULD SEE SOME QUARTER OF AN INCH TO HALF INCH OF RAIN. >>
