president vladimir putin. cnn's matthew chance is at the grave site for prigozhin. matthew, quite a sight to see there. tell us what you are seeing. >> reporter: well, it's been quite an extraordinary day, brianna. the authorities have gone to huge lengths to try and cover up where the funeral was going to actually take place. they put security barricades and metal detectors outside other cemeteries in st. petersburg. meanwhile, the actual funeral took place here about an hour drive outside of st. petersburg, the russian city. you can see we've come here now, we're not allowed into the cemetery, but there's all these security guards, actually members of the national guard. there's armed sort of snipers outside the various perimeter points as well. so they're imposing really tight security on this entire area to make sure that people don't go

electric utility as well to make sure the power lines are clear. we operate over 4,000 miles of both distribution and transmission lines. so there's been a lot of work behind the scenes by the great men and women of the city of tallahassee to make sure that we are prepared as well as we possibly can be going into the storm, and then we're going to hunker down and once the storm moves through we will be prepared for restoration afterwards. but it is a concern. absolutely. >> well, listen, good luck to you, mayor daley, and the people of tallahassee, we wish you the best in these coming days. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> and we will be hearing shortly from the fema administrator in terms of federal, national preparations for this approaching storm. of course we'll bring you those updates and those comments as they come. brianna. in the meantime, the funeral of russian mercenary chief yevgeny prigozhin was held privately at a cemetery in st. petersburg today. prigozhin of course killed in a plane crash on august 23rd. two months to the day since staging a mutiny against russian

we're told up to 20,000 people can be housed at these locations. right now, at least in this part of downtown tampa bay, what they want is folks that live in the low lying part of the town to go ahead and try to get more inland. jim and brianna? >> hide from the wind, run from the water. carlos suarez in tampa. thank you so much. >> so right now, there are some huge concerns about the small island of cedar key there in florida which could take a direct hit and face life-threatening storm surge. here's the deputy director of the national hurricane center with a dire warning for cedar key residents. >> look at the values up here in the big bend here. 8 to 12 feet along the nature coast and cedar key. cedar key is right smack in the middle of that area. i'm especially concerned for them. if you're watching from cedar key, it is imperative that you take this very seriously, and if ordered to evacuate, heed those evacuations immediately. the entire island could be completely cutoff.

because we know to get out of the way of the storm surge, but it's so very hard to get out of the way of the flooding. what would the people do in florida? where would they evacuate? up here. but there's going to be flooding here. that's the rub. where do you go from here just trying to stay out of the way of all of the hazards, the wind, the tornadoes, the surge and the like? this is a long duration. it's going to probably make landfall sometime after midnight before 6:00 a.m. tomorrow. >> the catcher's mitt you described really resonates because there's nowhere for all that water to go and we're going to be speaking to the mayor of tallahassee in just a few moments. chad myers at the weather center. thanks so much. brianna. right now parts of cuba are in the dark and underwater after idalia brushed by the tip of the island as a tropical storm. some areas getting more than four inches of rain overnight. just check out a time lapse video that we are seeing out of havana where the heavy rainfall essentially made cuba's capital

across the river out here, tampa general hospital, they've already got their floodgates up. we're told that that can handle up to 15 feet of a storm surge. but as you mentioned, brianna, this time last year this part of tampa was seeing a similar threat with yet another powerful storm off the coast of florida. however, that storm ended up passing to the south of here. and so the folks out here, they're getting ready, they've got their sandbags, they've opened up hurricane shelters and they're getting ready for whatever may come their way although right now it seems the storm is just going to hug the coast and miss the tampa bay area. brianna? >> carlos suarez live for us in tampa. thank you. jim? >> also in the crosshairs tallahassee. and join meg now is the mayor of tallahassee, florida, john daly. mayor, i know it's busy where you are. thanks for taking the time this afternoon. >> thanks, jim. appreciate it. >> so we just heard our chad myers describe the particular threat from storm surge and just how all that water as it heads up your way has no place to go

in, presumably so people don't go in and pay their respects. i don't quite know why, but obviously they're very insecure indeed about that. i just want to show you the closest we can get, though, to the grave site because if you come over here you can look through the branches over there into the middle of this quite small cemetery and you can see a russian flag. you can see some flowers there that have been arranged. and there's a very simple wooden cross which you may not be able to see now. but that's yevgeny prigozhin's grave site. it's actually right next door to where his father was buried as well. that's obviously one of the reasons why this cemetery was picked. but i think the other reason is that it's just so out of the way and that the authorities could kind of pretend it was somewhere else but actually hold it here without much publicity. and that's what they've managed to do. i say, though, a lot of security. we're not permitted to go in for the moment. this is as close as we're going to get. brianna. >> it's a beautiful place, though, with the trees and very

people to the west of where i am who are going to be without power. and brianna, these are still the same people who are recovering from hurricane ian last year. this is a hard-hit region. already people very much impacted by last year's devastating storm. and this certainly won't help. not nearly as powerful a storm as what florida is going to face in the coming hours. but quite an impact it left here all the same. >> yeah, we can see that in the pictures for sure. patrick oppmann live for us from havana. thank you. i want to bring in cnn's carlos suarez who is live for us in tampa, where the expected storm surge could potentially be a once-in-a-lifetime event. tampa sort of benefiting from a bit of a turn with ian. we're not so sure that's going to happen this time, carlos. can you tell us what you're expecting? >> reporter: that's exactly right, brianna. so the first rounds of mandatory evacuations have gone out. one out in pinellas county just

incredibly difficult, if not impossible to control the heli helicopter. we're still waiting to hear more on the response here, and also investigators have their work cut out for them. what precipitated the fire. that's the big question. was it something on board? a failure of a system? or part of the life-saving equipment that's carried on board? really big questions here, brianna. no doubt the f.a.a. is investigating and the ntsb now leading the investigation as well. >> big question. that chopper was clearly in trouble before it started to break up. pete, thank you so much. jim? some other headlines were watching. president biden and secretary lloyd austin offering their condolences to three u.s. marines killed in an air crash off the northern coast of
