eastern tennessee overnight. reportedly killing two people and injuring dozens more people. the storm's tearing through parts of the great smoky mountains. the park spokesamerican telling wtae that a falling tree killed a woman and another man died when his motorcycle wrecked during the storm and rob mars an mow is going to let us know where they're going. >> good morning. >> well, the storms have weakened. around 5:00 they were rolling down the south, the western part of the smoky mountains. if you don't know east of knoxville. a lot of tourists get millions of visitors, as a matter of fact. as you would imagine in the middle of july, a lot of folks camping via tents and rv. that's the danger these storms pose. there was a storm -- there was a severe thunderstorm watch posted at the time but regardless kind of a couple cells or clusters of cells converging on this area as it drove down to the south. with all the heat that was built up, much like the deraiecho and funny things happen in the mountains when you get them down across the area of tennessee where winds can converge and accurately accelerate those, as well. now, we're looking at things driving down to the south weakening somewhat but yet another wind event with thunderstorms with all this heat that we've built up certainly not helping the situation. >> all right, rob, thanks very much. keep an eye on things. check in on you periodically. the countdown is on for the big june jobs report that comes out in less than 3 1/2 hours and has, wait, really not just in the u.s. but all over the world and fresh perspective. the big question will we see another month of weak jobs growth? may wasn't so hot. poppy harlow is on jobs duty. what do you think we'll see. >> another weak month. this is the estimate. analysts surveyed by cnn money expect this economy to have added 95,000 jobs in the month of june, not god at all. to give you perspective what we need to see 300,000, 400,000 jobs. what's interesting is that the unemployment rate hasn't been below 8% since right after the president was inaugurated. another issue we've seen a lot of jobs growth, over 200,000 created in january. this summer, we've had very anemic jobs growth. the question is we have even more economic headwinds so how are we going to see a vast improvement? europe is at a tipping point. also, the u.s. economy is at a tipping point. we don't know if and when congress will act on things like the jobs act. additionally who the next president will be. that uncertainty, what ma makes businesses do and say is that we'll stay on the surveillances and not hire as many people as we thought we might. right now let's take a look at the big picture here. all political, guys, because, of course, after this jobs report this morning, we only have four more. four more jobs reports until that electric. this all comes down to politics. if you take a look obviously at the end much the bush administration we were bleeding jobs. if you look at the beginning of the obama administration this economy lost about 4.3 million jobs but then in 2010 we started to see -- we started to see this growth and this is important. it's just the fact that last fall we saw this acceleration in jobs both. will we see that again in the fall and critical to the obama administration. we know that the president is going to be in ohio today. brooke, talking about jobs and will have to address this report. if we see that expectation of 95,000 job, that's just not nearly enough. the obama administration hoping for that to take up much higher. we want to keep an eye on the revision. are the previous months april and may going to be revised higher or lower. very important too. the trend we're seeing is not good at all in may 69,000 jobs created. that's disappointing even if we meet the expectation, that's disappointing, as well. >> you and i were talking, the unemployment rate in ohio and pence sitting at 7.3% which is pretty great. the president can say look at this vast improvement but isn't the numbers across the country. that doesn't include the numbers of people who gave up who respect looking. >> that's the big issue. when you look at it frankly calculated only by those looking are looking for work. you're well into the midteens when you talk about the actual unemployment rate and the underemployment rate, as well. i find that to be more important. people ryan the fringes and marginally counted. working but don't make enough to get by. that's very important and then long-term unemployed americans. over 12 million people out of the work. 12 million people, more than 5 million of those have been out of work pore six months or longer and we we know the statistics show us, the longer you're out of work, the harder it is to get a job. we'll go through those for you at 8:30. >> eastern time, we'll watch for it. poppy, thank you very much. also, a florida judge setting bond at $1 million for george zimmerman saying he fears he was plotting to leave the country. he could be walking out at any time but his defense team says it will be tough for his family to come up with $100,000 in cash plus the $1 million in collateral. trayvon martin's family is watching these developments closely and their attorney spoke to erin burn net just last night. >> i'm here speaking on their behalf would prefer that the killer of their unharmed son remain in jail and until the trial and respect the court's order and the judge in a very strong message in his order. vrjs remember the original bail was $150,000 was revoked last month after the judge found out he and his wife failed to disclose $150,000 from the public. people are really starting to panic now. it's been a full week since that freak series of storms knocked out power to millions of people and seven dares late ever about 500,000 people in 11 different states still have no air-conditioning. no refrigerator, not even a fan and feeding centers have provided 25,000 meals to those who haven't eaten in days. scorching heat will continue today. thousands without power facing temperatures and extreme heat warnings and heat advisories in 25 different states. highs in the 100s and higher today in chicago. indianapolis and mror. cities that aren't used to that at all. >> the secretary of state going to be talking a lot on this trip here. hillary clinton arriving in paris this morning for a conference on syria. first stop in a 13-day trip that will touch on some of the most critical issues facing the u.s. the middle east. secretary clinton will also meet with president mahmoud a abbas. she'll meet with other leaders from other nations. a lifeguard fired for leaving his post to help save a drowning man as been offered his job back. there is a catch. lopez doesn't want his job back. he says he knew he was breaking the rules on monday when he left his stand to run into the waters that were outside of his assigned zone because he saw a struggling swimmer. he told erin burn net last night he would do it all over again. >> made it clear beforehand we will lose our job if we did violate this rule but i wasn't going to let that stop me, you know. a stupid rule over somebody's life, it's a pretty obvious choice. >> well, he told erin burn net as well as his boss who was live that he is very humbled by his boss' apology and the opportunity to return but he's not interested. just wants to put this whole episode behind him. >> i say good for him. got an update this morning on what i said was my favorite story but i should, you know, star asterisk except if you were in delaying on the fortensurth july. remember this. what a show in 2 seconds. all the fireworks went off. 17-minute show. this was five minutes before the show started and took fewer than 30 seconds so the company is now saying, all right, here's the deal. they say it was a computer malfunction and have a backup plan if the display doesn't ignite but no backup plan if they ignite prematurely so offering to do next year's show for fry. after i had said it was my favorite story i got a few tweets from people in saying, say, yeah, it may be fun to watch but if you waited hours, big bummer. >> the reason we said yesterday it was a light story is because nobody was hurt. >> no, it was an amazing light show in 22 seconds. >> heck of a
