about what safety issues this might cause. what are they? what should flyers and pilots and airlines be concerned about right now? the visibility is the big issue, phil. the reason why the faa puts in place these ground stops and ground delay programs is to essentially extend out the congressa line of planes coming into busy airports when they can t see each other eye-to-eye. they have to keep the space much further apart to make it safe. so, really, this is a safety issue. but also that equals a scheduling issue making these delays and cancellations really pile up. pete, thank you, buddy. thank you. new video just in to cnn. this is ukrainian president zelenskyy visiting the region devastated by that flooding after the destruction of the critical dam. we ll get the latest on the evacuation efforts under way. plus, a second republican billionaire, just jumped into the 2024 race. today, i m officially
has the worst visibility of any airport nationwide. he said not flying into the red smoke was like the apocalypse. you could smell the smoke from his seat as the plane came in to land. this is not much of a safety issue for commercial issues. more of a scheduling issue. we know that when there are widespread delays and cancellations, that can lead to can skating cancellations. it is holding steady at hundred and 50 nationwide. thank you. more on where the smoke is going next. let s check in with jonathan at the weather center for us. what is the latest forecast? it all depends on the wind
something. someone said something interesting, they warrant to bring someone back. we just don t know. we re not prepared to report about what exactly is going on there, but the timing is worth noting, and the fact they re now come back this week after a lull is noteworthy. what s your interpretation of this return, danny, the fact that the grand jury is coming back after the break? is it an indication of a conclusion or a potential continuation of the investigation? here is the challenge with grand juries and scheduling. because everything is kept so secret, it could be true that the grand jury is wrapping up, they could begin convening to draft a report, a report that may charge nobody. it may be a report explaining why nobody was charged. then there s always the possibility it could be something totally mundane, like a scheduling issue. maybe one grand jury expires, the other comes in. there are many reasons why a grand jury may adjourn and reconvene later on. we have to keep th
embarrassment, any of the legal troubles that we face. even the allegations from the d.a. s across the country that have been putting together, systematic and methodical cases against the former president. he is going to just say, it is a democratic partisan, we are trying against him, none of this even matters. he is completely innocent. and sadly, many of his republican supporters, many of whom vote in republican primaries, will not be moved by it either. i want to switch gears here to the georgia investigation in fulton county. fani willis has signaled this week that the grandeur indictments could be unsealed in early august. so, we are like three months out from that. what are you taking from the signal? why would she signaled so far ahead, is that because she is looking over the security of her team? or herself? exactly right. i mean, this is a scheduling issue. fani willis has apparently told the courthouse, hey, all you judges, don t schedule anything. keep in mind this is
know. i don t think so. i mean, like you said, it could be a scheduling issue. it could be something you know this is this is a big decision to indict a former president. it s never been done before. four so it certainly is something that you would expect prosecutors to want to be careful about. you know, i m sure they want to review their evidence. it s a big decision, not only a big decision it s ever been done before, but with a legally really tough case to meet the bar at the threshold for it s a case that has never been decided by a judge. you know, you ve never had someone be charged with falsifying business records for campaign finance violations , and that going to trial you know this has been a case in area where people have played out. so it hasn t been really tested in that way. and so that also is a big question for them to decide if this is the one they want to bring to test it, parascandola. thank you. get one. okay, so that s what s happening here in new york, you might
