Announcer from nbc news this is today with matt lauer and Savannah Guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to today on a friday. Matt has the morning off. Let there be mom dancing. I want to grab my chinos and sweater set. It continues. Jimmy fallon and more viral videos. We will show you more highlights in a moment. The storm goes across the south and al roker is here. What can you tell us . This is a changeable situation. Lets look at what happens in kansas. This tornado not hitting the ground but it showing you the power of this system. In louisville this is where the danger spot it. Massive flooding. High water rescues and apartment complexes that are being evacuated as we speak. I65 has been shut down and they are evacuating. It is a mess and we look at the pictures coming in. Its pretty impressive and streets turning into rivers. The system is sitting on top. Lets go to the radar to show you whats going on. Heavy rainfall in the last two or three hours. We are talking about 4 1 2, almost five inches of rain falling throughout the area and it continues. Tornado watches for Northern Arkansas and southern missouri. Severe thunderstorm watches. Flash flood warnings and watches in effect through the entire area all along this front. The rain is going to continue. You can see the watches and warnings throughout louisville. We will be watching this. We have the risk of Severe Weather and enhanced risk from jackson, huntsville and lexington. Flood watches and warnings and about one to three inches of rain and as it moves to the east the heavy rain continuing and on the back side anywhere from to five inches of snow in upstate new york and Northern New England. It calms down by Easter Sunday but the next 24 hours will be very, very difficult. We will be watching it. Another big story this morning. How this landmark deal is being received this morning. Not only in washington but around the world. The president insisted this is a good deal but it may proof to be a very tough sell. Peter alexander, good morning to you. Reporter here at the white house they call it unprecedented, but the republicans and the israeli Prime Minister clearly not on board. Benjamin netanyahu blasting the framework saying it threatens the survival of israel. With the moment now in reach. It is a good deal. A deal that meets our core objectives. President obama must now fend off republican critics already attacks his iran framework. There is no deal with iran. There is a list of very danger obsessions that put iran on the path. Tom cotton spearheaded that controversial letter last month opposing a deal. If congress killings this deal not based on expert analysis and without offering a reasonable alternative, its the United States that will be flamed for the failure of diplomacy. It would block every pathway for iran to build a bomb and put controls over disposing of nuclear fuel. It calls for strict un inspections and in return they will lift punishing sanctions and threatening they will be put back in place if iran cheats. We have extraordinary expensive verification measures that have not been applied before. We will have stateoftheart Television Cameras within production facilities. The foreign minster call period a winwin out come. When we implement measures there will be no sanctions. Regular iranians took to twitter posted selfies after irans state run tv took the step of showing a u. S. President s remarks live and unsensored. The clock starts again. The deadline is june 30 for a final agreement. This is complicated stuff as an expert said think of it as honey i shrink the program. The president himself conceded nothing is agreed to until everything is agreed to. As is so often the case. Chuck todd is moderator of meet the press. Good morning. A lot of people were surprised this deal happened at all, but also that it had as many specifics as it seems to. Not only that it was better than what it was leading to. Thats something of a relief to the administration. They got iran to concede to things. There was concern that the sanctions would get lifted before there would be verification. That wasnt the case. One of the things that is benefiting early on is that this deal is being announced while congress is not in town. They are all in recess for the holiday and it gives time to sell it without push back. I dont know if you agree, but it seemed to me in a way as controversial as the deal is the criticism was somewhat muted. You dont see people falling all over to get on tv or issue these dueling press releases and that kind of thing. Are People Holding their fire. The good friday press strategy. They are not in town. I think some will hold their fire. They want to see how it will play out and see the details. The plan has more details. There is two and a half months before you have the signed and sealed part of the deal. The timing of the announcement is beneficial because so many of the members are out of town. The president has to sell it. Can Congress Scuttle the deal as a practical matter . They can easily. You have a lot of skeptical democrats including the incoming highest ranking Democrat Chuck schumer. He put out a twopage statement who said i will review the details of the agreement. That was not a supportive comment. Its possible to kill the deal. The president can veto an attempt, but there enough democrats to override a veto. The next two and a half months will be critical. Its just getting started. We will see you sunday on meet the press. Off the coast of North Carolina a man missing at sea for 66 days found alive in his damaged sail boat 200 miles from shore. In norfolk, virginia where he sat down with that man and his family. Louis jordan was missing for two months forced to survive by rationing his food and eating whatever sea life he could and grabbing any rain water he could. He was cold and wet, but early this morning he walked out of sentara hospital. One man in a small boat in a very big ocean. After 66 days lost at sea, he walked into a norfolk hospital on thursday to an emotional reunion his father after 66 days at sea. For seemed like a lot longer. Friends knew he had gone sailing on his 35 foot sail boat and no one heard from him for two months and his parents were frantic. What were the last two months like . Terrible. Moment to moment and the moments turn into days. Had you given up hope . Many times. No one knew that lewis had drifted out into the atlantic. His boat capsized three times. I was flying through the air somersaulting and everything was upside down and backwards. He rationed his food and ate raw fish capturing rain water to survive. An incredible stroke of luck. His small sail boat was spotted. A massive german container ship 200 miles off the coast. I was standing up there waving my arms and they turned that huge skyscraper around. A chopper lifted him from the deck flying him back to norfolk. Lou sis thinner and shaggier but happy to be home. You ever going to sail again. I really dont know. Will you ever let him get on the boat again . I dont know. Not in the ocean. You cant blame him. I asked how did you spend the two months on the ocean. He said he read the bible over and over cover to cover. He came away a very inspirit and spiritual person. If you are on the ocean for two months what kind of food would you miss . I asked him that and he said barbecue and organic ice cream. Definitely not fish. Good taste. Thats an amazing story. Thanks so much.
