Helene made landfall, and governor Ron Desantis is warning people in the Hurricanes Path take this storm serious so please keep an eye on this storm theres a bit the greater cone covers almost the entire West Coast of florida at this point. And so even if youre not in the cone as it gets closer, certainly if youre on the dirty side of the storm, theres going to be surge that goes outside the cone thats going to be significant. So just prepare for that and understand that something that is likely to happen just moments ago, florida Officials Evacuation orders as soon as tomorrow and just one county is Tracking Milton for us. So what are you seeing as far as its path and where its protect projected to bring here i mean, were worried about it rapidly intensifying. Again. And as it heads towards the West Coast of florida, that will bring Storm Surge, ive been down the coast, damaging winds and Heavy Rain is right now a category one hurricane and are ready rapidly intensified from yesterday, we were dealing with depression yesterday morning. Its got 80 mile per hour winds now still sitting 800 miles west and southwest of tampa, but it will continue its trek in very warm waters here over the gulf of mexico, which will allow it to intensify. Again, two, that major category three hurricane, youre heard the governor talking about the cohn . Yes, it doesnt include much of the West Coast of florida. We really need to focus on in the coming days on where exactly that ai goes, because that will be really the determining factor for the worst of the Storm Surge. But regardless, the entire peninsula was to the impacts of the wind and the rain. Again, ocean temperatures, middle and upper 80s, thats why were finding it feeding itself and fueling itself time and time again intensifying. And these oceans are just continuing to get warmer. So we see these hurricanes getting extremely stronger, faster in recent decades, even surpassing the definition of rapid intensification. So it continues its trek across the gulf going into monday and tuesday were looking at impacts possibly late tuesday into wednesday, wednesday, he would be one that i gets on shore and you get the landfall. I mean, look, these winds would be incredibly destructive if its a category three hurricane. And again, were that ai goes will determine where the worst of the Storm Surges, what if its north of Tampa Bay, then youre going to feed all that Storm Surge into Tampa Bay. If its its to the south and thats a better scenario for them. But either way again, were looking at very destructive waves along the coast. Now it doesnt matter what the winds are, what category it is. It will squeeze out a ton of rain. Were looking at five to eight inches of rain again across the peninsula from Daytona Beach down to miami, some totals up to ten to 12 inches are possible. So that gives you the urban and the Flash Flooding and communities even far inland for places like orlando that are not as close to the coast. When you look at tampa, i mean, the forecast, there is five to ten inches. Theyve got a front there now thats dumping green and then milton crimes that is over three Months Worth of rain from milton, the October Average is just over two inches for Tampa Bay. Given youre talking about five to ten inches in just a matter of days on top of their already had flooding and Storm Surge from Helene Last week. Again, theres just this compounding Compounding Factors here, adding insult to injury, you know, already saturated grounds and with some debris still from helene, Flood Watches in effect again for the peninsula as we get heavier rain from her front. And then of Course Milton coming through with all of that rain and its been such an active season. Look at all the landfalls that weve had. This is this year alone along the gulf coast. You know, you had barrel in texas. We had francine in louisiana and then to so far in florida, it looks like were going to add another one oman. Yeah, we will see him continue to monitor that impact elisa raffa. Thank you. And obviously, as we await that landfall, Governors Governor Ron Desantis is one but also local mayors have also been trying to put their preparations into place. Ron desantis has declared a state of Emergency Emergency for 51 counties ahead of militant, including hillsborough, which can includes the Tampa Bay area. So joining me to discuss is tampa Mayor Jane Castor now mayor casts or miami, Orlando And Tampa or each forecast to receive four to eight inches of rain through thursday, that would be the equivalent of an entire Months Worth of rain for miami, two Months Worth of rain for orlando, and three Months Worth of rain for tampa. Im curious for you. How does Helenes Damage complicate how you might be preparing for What Milton brings here. Well, first of all, thank you for keeping The Viewers informed omar. And youre right. We are saturated. Just fully saturated. And to have a Months Worth of rain in one storm is going to be difficult enough, not even to mention the Storm Surge, the Wind Mj right now, we are still cleaning up from helene. We have crews that are working around the clock to ensure that we have all of the Household Debris picked up from helene we had six to eight foot Storm Surge that all the residences, the majority that havent been built to the new standards, the new codes they had that six foot of water inside their homes ruined everything. So were trying to pick up all of that now so it doesnt become projectiles. When milton comes to visit and along those lines, i mean, obviously theres a lot of worries in many spots, a lot of things that you all are trying to keep an eye on and mitigate. But what is your biggest worry as we await this Milton Landfall at a few days time now as it looks like it will be right. Well, i its its people just becoming complacent and not listening to the Evacuation Orders well, haleine was certainly a Wakeup Call for us and so people are going to heed the Evacuation Notice so now us county, which is mostly coastal, they they have to for the most part, come through Hillsborough County to evacuate. So i started this afternoon telling our residents in the zone a zone b, just go now that beat the traffic and go now and just go to higher ground. As we say here in florida, that you hide from the wind run, from the water. So you dont have to go to another state, just get inland where youre not going to be susceptible to those Storm Surges. No ones going to survive the ten foot Storm Surge in a house it was built before the current storm codes. And weve seen a lot of those houses destroyed in these storms in the past year or so and look, ive covered hurricanes in florida. I lived in florida for some time. I think its fair to say there are many who whenever we get Storm Forecast like this, no matter the category of hurricane who decide to stay rather than evacuated and im sure were seeing some of that same are im sure we saw some of that same dynamic with helene, of course, but are you getting a sense with this impending threat that there are many more people who are actually listening to some of those Evacuation Orders. And maybe understand that this might not be as survivable as you think it is and weve had a lot of people move into the area, were one of the fastestgrowing cities in the united states. So we have a lot of newcomers as well, but i tell you helene was a Wakeup Call and when the order is given tomorrow to evacuate in specific zones people are going to listen if they havent already gotten out. As i like to say, you get in a fight with mother nature, she is going to win every single time. And so a lot of people dont understand the power of the water and the wind specifically those Storm Surges. But we learned a very valuable lesson with helene. And i think people are going to listen we will see hopefully they heed some of those warnings.

So whenever youre ready weeknights at seven on cnn new today, Israels Military is mounting renewed attacks on hamas In Gaza after launching airstrikes overnight, the idf says it began a new Ground Assault after seeing signs, the group is rebuilding. You can see residents in the area packing up and fleeing as fighting broke out and it comes though as israel prepares to mark one year heres since the October 7 hamas attacks setting off the war In Gaza. Cnns Jeremy Diamond is in Tel Aviv for us. So what more are we learning . Lets start with these attacks In Gaza. What more are we learning . There . Well, omar, the israeli military is in circling the jabalya refugee camp, carrying out a new and renewed major Military Offensive there it is the fourth time now, that israeli troops have gone into the jabalya refugee camp, just showing how a year after this war In Gaza began, Hamas Plus is continuing to reconstitute and areas that had previously been cleared by the israeli military, raising serious questions about the israeli governments longterm strategy In Gaza. We are also seeing as this new Military Offensive is once again impacting the civilians on the ground, hundreds of thousands of people living in Northern Gaza facing new evacuate Tuition Orders from the israeli military in the majority of the area of Northern Gaza already this morning, we saw hundreds of people following airstrikes and Artillery Fire directed At Jabalya overnight, hundreds of people this Morning Fleeing that area heading south and expressing their fears about whether or not they would actually be safer by going to this humanitarian zone, which we have seen time and time again be struck by the israeli military as well. Now, as all of this is happening, the israeli military and the governments are also preparing for this expected retaliation against iran for its barrage of ballistic missiles fired at israel earlier this week i actually spoke today with the israeli Defense Minister Yoav Golan to told me that everything is on the table as it relates to retaliation, that even as the united states has made clear that it does not want to see Israel Strike nuclear sites inside of iran. But golan saying that everything is on the table and that israel will ultimately choose a time and place of its choosing for the strike regardless of what any other country says something i know youll continue to monitor for us, but also one thing weve been seeing plans of is look, were one year out since the October 7 attack in just a few hours. Here where you are how israel planning to mark that anniversary and are there any added Security Measures that they were trying to put in place to be a very somber day in israel. As we have talked about since October 7, last year, there is not a single israeli who was an impacted by the massacre on that day by the hostage which is who were taken by hamas and those who still remain in captivity. And so there will be events marking October 7 at the Nova Music Festival site in regime by the gaza border. At the time of the attack tomorrow morning. The will also be a big event here in Tel Aviv marking the day. We are seeing these israeli military adding security in southern israel. The israeli military told me earlier today that they expect that hamas could potentially try and fire rockets into israel, noting the fact that they have previously tried to fire during symbolic days. And of course we do have to remember that not only is this the anniversary of October 7, but it also marks one year of war In Gaza during which we have seen more than 41,000 palestinians be killed. We have seen millions of people be displaced from their homes. And of course that war, as we were just talking about, is continuing today. And in fact, intensifying once again in the northern part of the gaza strip, omar, just play so many people. Jeremy diamond. Thank you so much. I want to bring in Daniel Flesch is a fort more paratrooper and the Israel Defense forces and daniel look as jeremy was just talking about, we are a year out from October 7, which of course shocked the world really with the violence carried out and how quickly it was by hamas that day. But a year out when you look at the landscape militarily and politically and gaza, lebanon, iran, and more, did you think that this is where we would be a year out i wasnt me starts at home first and say a year from the deadliest attack on the jewish people since the holocaust. I do not think that antisemitism will be so rampant as it is including recently released fbi statistics showing and over 300 increase in antisemitic incidents. The united states alone a year out, i do not think that over 100, 101 hostages would still remain in Hamas Terror dungeons underneath the gaza strip, including five americans. We must always remember that. I dont think also that that number 40,000 casualties would be parotid even though it is hamas Talking Points and not actually verified statistics but i did think that israel would achieve its goal of defeating Hamas Militarily, which it said it did about a few weeks ago and is shifting its operations from kinetic more towards counterterrorism In Gaza. And i did think going to be Turning North towards hezbollah to engage that far greater strategic threat. But of course, we saw twice now that iran has launched ballistic Missile Attack facts against israel first in april and now just about a week ago, we saw that 200 missiles, as was mentioned, but it will now its gonna be responding. Of course, in the last month or so, israel is certainly turn the tables against iran and its regional proxies. And this is something we have to look forward to israel taking the offensive now, you mentioned the hostages as well. I mean, look, a year out, we still have as you mentioned more than 100 israelis believed to be still held hostage. And are you surprised at this point that there are still that many that havent come home surprise of the question of capability and well on part of effectively the united states, and that israel has been trying to achieve these two goals that to finish Hamas Militarily In Gaza and also rescuing the hostages. But unfortunately, this administration has slowed israels offensive throughout the City Year as it seeks to achieve both goals. So a year out, 101 civilians who are brutally abducted and taken from their homes. And now ive been living languishing, including i must remember and less were called a nine ninemonthold baby, Fear Be Boss was nine months old whos now one year and nine months old was taken. It is tragic and injunction the community that these international organizations, the un and others, have turned effectively a blind eye to these hostages. And we must be doing more not only to recall and remember their names and their situation, but to pressure ham
