Way Too Early With Jonathan Lemire

an extremely dangerous category 4 storm. it is churning off the coast of florida where it is expected to make landfall later this morning bringing a catastrophic storm surge and destructive winds to that state's gulf coast. joining us now from tampa, florida, nbc news correspondent marissa parra. marissa, we can see the water coming over the barricades there. give us a sense of the latest conditions there in tampa and how much worse things could get. >> yeah, so just to give you a lay of the land right now, as you mentioned we are in the tampa area, now this specifically called davis island and people in the tampa area are used to seeing flooding. we're talking about a very vulnerable area to surges, but the interesting thing about where i am right now if we were to pan the camera over there, you'll see we're outside tampa general hospital. this is tampa bay's only level one trauma center.

Ana Cabrera Reports

i want to bring in nbc news correspondent marissa parra who is in tampa. good morning, what are you seeing there? >> reporter: if you were to look over here, it's hard to tell whether i'm joining you from the streets of downtown tampa or tampa bay because tampa bay has completely overtaken streets here. if you were to look a little further over here, what you're going to see is a car that tried unsuccessfully to drive through these flooded streets. it was just last night, in fact, maybe even earlier this morning, that we saw cars driving through here. this is bay shore boulevard. this is a pretty normal place, a pretty average place to drive through in downtown. but as you can see, lots of flooding here. this person inside this car needed to be rescued. they tried to drive through an area they shouldn't. authorities kept asking people don't drive through flooded roads. otherwise we'll have to come and rescue. we have heard of several rescues

Ana Cabrera Reports

majority of places in zone a are seeing the flooding. we have seen exactly why those places have been evacuated. that goes not just for here and tampa, we're talking also about the peninsula. now, i want to point out behind me over in that direction tampa general hospital. this is tampa bay's only level one trauma center. that is where people with the most serious of injuries go to. it is supposed to be operational during the hurricane. it is only accessible by those bridges. it is on an island. it's really interesting, they obviously have to put a lot of precautions in place. they have these things called aqua fences to make sure they have upwards of 15 feet of stormwater protection. that is definitely making things eaier for them. it remains to be seen what we'll find later in the day, jose. >> marissa parra, i thank you so very much. really appreciate it. i want to bring in the mayor of tampa. thank you very much for your time. tampa is not getting hit

Chris Jansing Reports

clears? >> again, with the storm surge brings a lot of sand, the environmental conditions. there's a lot of unknowns that actually just washed up. environmentally and cleaning the areas, getting it back to seminole is going to be very important. that's going to be one of our biggest concerns. separating the dirty sand from the debris and getting cleaned back up for the streets and making it safe again. >> javon graham, to you and the folks who work with you in emergency management, we really appreciate everything you do and we appreciate you taking the time to talk to us. good luck. >> thank you. nbc's marissa parra, meantime, is reporting live from tampa, which is seeing a king tide. that's some of the highest water levels of the year. about to go inside with this hurricane. so how are things there, marissa? >> reporter: i have good news to report. we have actually seen the water

Chris Jansing Reports

office for this county released a photo of a rattlesnake that was seen swimming through the water, so i will just point that out, you never know what's in here, especially if there's a downed power line, that could get very dangerous. we're talking about signs of hope. tampa's airport, incoming flights will be welcomed once again this evening. expected to reopen early tomorrow morning. so things are looking good, at least, but we're cautiously optimistic here. back to you. >> we keep hearing it again and again. resist the urge, marissa parra, stay safe out there. thank you. we've got a lot more coming up in our next hour, including the latest on florida residents who resisted those mandatory evacuation orders and instead stayed behind. breaking coverage of hurricane idalia continues. you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc. you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc want a smarter way to mop? introducing the new swiffer powermop. an all-in-one cleaning tool with a 360-degree swivel head that goes places a regular mop just can't.

Morning Joe

eye of the storm and those conditions will change very, very quickly. >> florida governor ron desantis a short time ago giving a briefing issuing that warning at this point it's time to stay inside and hunker down. joining us now live from tampa is nbc news correspondent marissa parra. good morning. what are you seeing there? >> reporter: willie, good morning. so, we are currently in what's called zone a, the mandatory evacuation area in tampa and you'll see why in just a moment because if you look over there, this is what happens when a car tries to drive through the evacuated zone. you can see tampa bay has completely washed over onto the road. this is a main road that we saw cars driving through even last night with ease. there were many cars that were driving through here, but obviously this is now the water is taking over a lot of the roads and this is something we have seen throughout the morning as we ourselves have been trying to assess the situation. if you look further down over there, that sort of yellow
