Spaghetti models. i have them in front of me. spaghetti says this storm is heading to san antonio tonight, 24 hours from now. then where does it go? there is not a model that would agree with you on anything because they all just spread out and go in every different direction. there is no consensus from the model which means the storm is going to essentially stop and wobble and you could put down 25, 30, maybe more inches of rainfall in any one area. i just measured it on google earth, do a poly...

Issued. here is the shore, here is that area of 125 mile per hour winds. there is our martin savage right there. now, the heaviest wind should move up toward the north, but i think marty could still be at 120 or 115 mile per hour winds, and that is a destructive, almost a f-2, ef-2 tornado, even though its not a tornado, a hurricane, the same wind damage is possible from this as a tornado for sure. >> yeah, i just want to elaborate on what you just reported, chad. the national weather service ...

Muscle. we had the capability to work with the south koreans if anything were to happen. this is a part of a long history of provocation during big events, including these joint training exercises. so, i think this is kim jong-un finally or once again reminding the world that hes on this path to a nuclear weapon and just hardly anything is going to stop him from getting. i think thats what hes trying to do. i dont think its provocation to the point where he is looking for engagement. he understa...

Fact that i believe he is starting to respect us. i respect that fact. >> so, ron, whats your analysis? >> look, that was either conciliatory or belittling in effect to say kim jong-un has bent to my superior resolve and power. you know, ive been watching administrations as you have, wolf, deal with this since the clinton presidency. and the very hard fact is that we may not have levers that can prevent them from advancing this program at an acceptable cost. there may not be economic levers that...

But here again, our forces are designed to support the state forces. so, you know, once the states capacity to handle an environmental disaster is exceeded, we can come in and provide technical expertise and physical resources to help overcome those issues. >> brock long, the administrator of fema, thanks so much to you and to all the men and women of fema. we are counting on you guys. you always do an incredibly important job in saving lives, and thats what youre going to be doing in the coming...

Were going this way. on the northeast side thats where the tornado should be. not so much on this side because the storms are coming off the land. youll want to look for the storms that are coming off the ocean, those are the ones that typically will make that type of event. call it a water spout and then it comes on shore, and its a tornado. thats just really how it happens. look at the size of the storm, though, right now. heres corpus christi, the eye very large, 125 miles per hour, about t...
