regular testing alternative. check this out. a new drone capturing footage inside hurricane sam as it barrels toward the atlantic. it navigated through 50-foot waves to capture this dizzying footage. >> it's something, isn't it? noaa says this is the world's first. it gives us a completely new view of a hurricane. data from this drone and others like it should help predict how and when hurricanes strengthen so not only good to look at but obviously getting valuable information. so, we will see you again in just about one hour in the "cnn newsroom." >> we sure will. stay tuned. smirconish is with you next.
