[Erin Mclaughlin, Cnn Correspondent:] Targeted. The are working very closely, they say, with their German counterparts, having searched his home over the weekend in Germany seizing a number of electronic items. Now, as for the Americans, they're in serious, though not critical condition. The U.S. embassy saying they're in close contact with the victims and their families. We are expecting an update from authorities later today. Alisyn.
[Alisyn Camerota, Cnn Anchor:] OK, please bring us that update whenever you get it. Erin, thank you very much for the reporting. So a tropical storm warning has been issues for parts of the southeast U.S. A potential storm is gathering strength. CNN meteorologist Chad Myers has our latest. What are you seeing, Chad?
[Chad Myers, Ams Meteorologist:] Very heavy rainfall now across south Florida, Alisyn. And we can see the spin with this storm as well. So it is already out there trying to churn. Years ago we'd call this a tropical depressions, but now because the models are so good, and because this is really going to turn into a tropical storm, they moved up to potential tropical storm, potential tropical cyclone seven, and it is going to get into the Gulf of Mexico. And when it does, it's going to get into very warm water. And so far we're only 45, 50, maybe a 60 mile per hour storm. But I will tell you and every meteorologist will tell you the models do a terrible job on intensity. A really good job on direction, but they could be terrible, 20 plus or minus 20 miles per hour on intensity. So we'll keep watching this for you as it moves toward the Gulf Coast. It will leave south Florida for today. You could even get a water spout on land in south Florida for today. We'll watch that. And then into the Gulf of Mexico, into very warm water, and then producing six to seven inches of rainfall. Finally it's finally done, though, I think, on Wednesday and Thursday. We get rid of this thing, but not before we make some flooding rainfall across the southeast and the Gulf Coast. Biloxi, Gulf Port, Pass Christian, all those places that got hit so hard with Katrina going to get very heavy rainfall. John.
[John Avlon, Cnn Anchor:] Of course. Thank you, Chad. We'll be keeping an eye on that. And the confirmation battle for Brett Kavanaugh begins tomorrow. And it's what lawmakers will not see that's causing the controversy. Details, next.
