Dubois good evening. Scott is off tonight. Im Maurice Dubois. Hermine became a hurricane today, and it is taking aim at florida. Watches and warnings are up tonight along the gulf coast of the state, and up the Atlantic Coast as far north as new jersey. Hermine would be first hurricane to make landfall in florida since wilma in 200511 years ago. And that is expected the happen overnight. Omar villafranca is in panama city i reporter floridas gulf coast is preparing to get hammered by hurricane hermine. Near panama city beach, residents are getting ready for soaking rain and wind speeds up to 75mph. Shawn cubbedge is shutting down his seaside business early to prepare for the estimated 15 inches of rain the storm could drop. Just for the safety of our employees and for the safety of the business, as well, were going to close up, bring all the tables and chairs inside, you anything to be blown away. Reporter the category 1 hurricane is expected to bring a storm surge that could swamp lowlying coastal areas in as much as nine feet of water. 51 counties in the Sunshine State have declared an emergency. Florida governor rick scott is warning residents to be prepared for the worst. That storm surge by itself is lifethreatening. Were going to have significant power lines down. Were going to have a lot of downed trees across the state. Already having an impact on floridas west coast. In the big bend area where the eye of the storm is expected to hit overnight, a mandatory evacuation has been ordered as the first bands of the storm kicks up wind and waves. Hundreds of schools along the Florida Gulf Coast will be closed tomorrow. Maurice, not only do people have to worry about the coming hurricane. They also have to keep an eye out for any possible tornadoes that this storm might spawn. Dubois Omar Villafranca in eric fisher is chief meteorologist at our cbs station in boston wbz. Eric, how do you see this playing out . Reporter well, maurice, i dont like what i see over these last few hours. Certainly hermine has been strengthening as it approaches florida and looks every inch a very potent hurricane this evening. It makes landfall and moves along the eastern seaboard. It moves quickly at first but then its full stop just off shore of atlantic city. Here it will sit and drift for several days. As we look toward the mid atlantic, especially on sunday, our strongest winds, which could gust over 60mph at the shoreline, but because it will be moving very slowly, just drifting over time and weakening overtime, its going to stack up a lot of surf and a lot of onshore flow. So from southern new england, from long island and especially the jersey shore down toward virginia, we could see significant coastal erosion from this storm, and this might be one of the biggest impacts felt in the mid atlantic this weekend. Dubois okay, meteorologist eric fisher watching hermine tonight. Zika virus has been found in mosquitoes captured in traps in miami beach. This is first time a pool of zikacarrying mosquitoes has been covered in the continental United States. 49 people have been infected in florida by local mosquitoes. 68 days now until the president ial election, and Donald Trumps attempt to clarify his position on illegal immigration clearly isnt working. Heres Major Garrett. Dont worry. Were goto that wall will go up. Its going to go up. Reporter that was donald trump today in ohio. Construction of a wall on the u. S. Mexico border has been one constant of trumps immigration plan. Another and mexico will pay for the wall. Reporter but mexican president enrique pena nieto, who met with trump yesterday, tweeted that would never happen. The only other constant for the rest of trumps immigration plan has been its recent lack of hispanic leaders on august 20th and left some with the impression he would roll back his proposal to remove the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants. The next day Campaign ManagerKellyanne Conway hedged on a socalled deportation force. To be determined. Reporter trump then denied a shift. No, im not flipflopping. Reporter but the next day trump used a new term that alarmed conservatives. And there certainly can be a softening because were not looking to hurt people. Firebrand conservative and trump supporter, pounced. It sounds as if some campaign component has slipped into his campaign. Reporter trump then reversed himself on cnn. I dont think its a softening. But 11 Million People are no no longer being deported . Ive heard people say its a hardening. Reporter all of which left to a subdued trump yesterday. Both of our countries will Work Together for mutual good. Night in phoenix and some firm policy descriptions. You cannot obtain legal status or become a citizen of the United States by illegally entering our country. Its our right as a sovereign nation to choose immigrants that we think are the likeliest to thrive and flourish and love us. [cheering and applause] reporter trump said he would prioritize removal of undocumented criminals. W number of ice deportation officers. Were also going to hire 5,000 more Border Patrol agents. Reporter trump remains wary of any details on deporting undocumented immigrants who otherwise broke no other laws. Maurice, trump said today he wouldnt even tackle that issue until after an estimated 700,000 to 2 million criminal immigrants deported. Dubois Major Garrett following the Trump Campaign tonight. Hillary clinton left it to a couple of highrank surrogates to attack trumps immigration status today. He choked when it came right to it. Reporter clinton was off the trail today, but her running mate was everywhere. He folded under pressure. It was a diplomatic embarrassment. Reporter mocking the dealmaker. He has been talking nonstop, were going to build a wall, were going to make mexicoay but when he sat down and he looked president pena nieto in the eye, he didnt have the guts to bring that up. Reporter in ohio, Vice President biden broadened the argument, accusing trump of sending mixed messages to many u. S. Allies. The idea that i ever thought id get in my career id get in a plane to basically make an emergency flight to hold the hands of three president s from estonia, latvia, and lithuania and say, no, no, no, no, no, he doesnt represent republicans or part of the clinton playbook. Keep the focus on trumps troubles and off clintons. Biden barely mentioned her today, and when he did, it was with a caveat. I know some of you are mad at hillary. I know some of you look at her and say, let me tell you something, man, she gets it. And she never yields. She does not break. Reporter on cbs this morning, kaine insisted clinton is not avoiding attention or the media. You see hillary take questions from reporters every day. She does. She talks to the press everywhere she goes. Reporter actually, the last time clinton answered even one question from her traveling press was two and a half weeks ago on august 16th. Her aides promise that will start to change this month when for the first time, maurice, she will be sharing a plane with her press pack everywhere she goes. Dubois nancy cordes following the clinton campaign. More than 1,000 people in east chicago, indiana, are scrambling to find new homes. Arsenic. The federal government knew about this for years but apparently no one told the residents until recently. Jericka duncan is there. Reporter anna arreola had her threeyearold son screened for lead today. They just moved to the east chicago area, and she wanted to make sure he was okay. So far hes safe. Not the case for twoyearold samira allen, whose lead levels are six times higher than her parents, chantal and charles allen, have lived in the west calumet neighborhood for six years. They say all five of their childrens lead levels are in the danger zone. We are walking and living in poison. So i feel like they should be taking this a lot more seriously. [knocking] reporter in 2008, the Environmental Protection agency declared the west calumet neighborhood a contaminated superfund site, built on on the the city, but according to the mayors office, it wasnt until may of this year, six years later, that the e. P. A. Shared alarming contamination levels with the city. Residents of this lowincome housing complex were living on leadlaced soil 66 times higher than whats considered safe. Since then the e. P. A. Placed signs throughout the neighborhood warning children to stay off the grass. Attorney barry rooth represents the allens and more than other people impacted by the contaminated soil. Were going to find out where this breakdown occurred. And then were going to go after that problem to compensate the victims. Reporter federal officials are paying to relocate the more than 1,000 people who live here, and maurice, tonight, the attorney for the city tells me that out of an abundance of caution they also plan to test the water for lead. Dubois Jericka Duncan in americas original sin. Today a prominent Catholic University owned up to its role in that sin and told us how it plans to atone for it. [bell tolls] reporter georgetown, founded in 1789, is the oldest Catholic Jesuit University in the United States. It has an endowment of 1. 5 billion now, but in 1838 the university was deep in debt and sold 272 slaves to stay open. Today University President degioia apologized. We will seek forgiveness for our participation in the institution of slavery. Reporter last year degioia created a committee to explore how the university should atone for its slavery past. In july he told cbs news why. In this moment in america, were living with the fact that we never ameliorated the reporter the University Says it will give preferential admission to descendants of the slaves it sold for what today would be 3. 3 million. Its estimated there are 10 to 15,000 of those descendants who now get the same special look as those of alumni and donors. Karen royal, one of the descendant, called it a good first step. Our country is really torn apart by racial strife right now, and georgetown as a Jesuit Institution is perfectly with us. Reporter the university is also creating an institute to study slaverys legacy, building a memorial and renaming two buildings, one for a runaway slave named isaac. The University Still has a 30 reward notice for his capture. For descendants like Cheryllyn Branche and her brother john living in louisiana, georgetowns push for answers has solved a mystery for her family. Not having your history is something that weve lived with. Who are you . Who were you before you were born when you were a whisper, when you were a thought . Report racial tensions here on campus and across the country in recent years triggered georgetowns introspection, and while descendant still feels the school hasnt done enough, others hope more institutions with similar histories follow suit.

More soon, tweeted elon musk, the billionaire owner of who also helped create tesla motors. And liftoff.

They have lost rockets trying to land them upright in the atlantic ocean, and in 2015 there was another explosion, this time after liftoff. Next month spacex is expected to talk about a mission to mars. But an explosion this size ensures more scrutiny of space spacex already has a backlog of more than 10 billion in launch orders.
