a dramatic new outbreak of twisters in the midwest. one taking down this starbucks in indiana as customers were seeking shelter. and incredibly, everybody got out alive "today," thursday, august 25th, 2016. >> announcer: from nbc news this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. good morning, everybody. it's thursday. nice to have you with us. we have two big weather stories this morning. >> al is about to join us. he's keeping an eye on those tornadoes that you talked about. one in indiana and others in ohio. then he has that storm he's looking at down in the tropics. he will be here in a couple of minutes. >> still a tropical disturbance. we'll see what al says in a couple of minutes. >> let's go right to this overnight investigation into the devastating earthquake in italy. as we just mentioned, the death toll jumped dramatically overnight. officials now say at least 247

being slowed by hundreds of aftershocks that have shaken that region. one area of focus in amatrice where a hotel is suspected of having dozens of guests trapped inside. >> let's get to nbc correspondent bill neely in that hard hit town this morning. bill, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, savannah. there are now thousands of rescuers here in amatrice and in all of the other small towns hopior and amid all the death and destruction here, some of which you can see behind me, there have been moments of hope and of joy. from the rubble, a small voice. rescuers find a little girl trapped in the ruins. come on, julia, they urge her and then pull her out. julia is bewildered but alive clinging to her rescuer.

beautiful girl they shout. nearby, a little boy is carried away after 12 hours buried in a collapsed house. life amidst so much death in the broken town of amatrice that woke this morning to aftershocks and a rising death toll from a massive quake that struck tuesday as everyone slept. its clock stopped. they worked overnight to pull people out but mostly it's bodies. just visible under the concrete, an 80-year-old woman. her daughter killed. a rescuer telling her to stay calm. amatrice was hardest hit reduced to dust by a quake felt 100 miles away in rome. >> like a bomb fell down on it. there's nothing there anymore.

town that's shaking still. they're going through the rubble here by hand trying to match the bodies they found with the possessions here to more easily identify them but mostly they're using these earth movers. it is now a case here more of recovery than of rescue. this was amatrice before and after. an historic town nearly every building now cracked or destroyed. many slept outside overnight fearing more buildings would collapse. it's a small place where everyone knows everyone and where they all know the death toll will rise again. well, the rescuers admit they don't actually know the exact number of missing because there were hundreds of tourists here as well as the locals, and they are working amid aftershocks. there was one this morning. 4.7 on the richter scale. that's enough to bring down fragile buildings.

is still very real. matt, savannah? >> indeed it is dangerous work there as well. bill neely, thank you. meanwhile, here at home the cleanup is under way in the midwest where a series of tornadoes caused substantial damage. you can see one of them lifting up and destroying a building in ohio. parts of indiana also very hard hit. nbc's tammy leitner is surveying the damage. in coke cuomo -- kokomo, >> 15 people injured here and no one was killed when you take a look at the intuxes intsh starbucks behind me completely flattened except for the restroom where customers and employees were hiding. mother nature's wrath caught on cell phone video in indiana. >> oh, my gosh. starbucks just got blown over. >> reporter: in the town of kokomo, a tornado taking down a starbucks with customers still

building right now. >> reporter: and then relief. >> three or four of us work together and got the doors off and got them off. >> reporter: eight tornadoes confirmed in the state. the intense storm system bringing loud cracks of thunder and spawning massive funnel clouds that left behind a twisted path of devastation. >> glad you are all right. >> reporter: george pena took shelter in his bathroom as his quick and not very painful. >> reporter: he made it out unharmed, but his neighborhood is nearly destroyed. >> thankful my kids weren't here. >> reporter: late wednesday indiana governor and republican vice presidential nominee mike pence left the campaign trail and headed home. >> we'll be here as long as we need to be. >> reporter: this morning a familiar heartbreak. a community again picking up the pieces. a residential neighborhood

now, this neighborhood was also hit by a series of tornadoes that came through here three years ago. we're told about 22,000 people are still without power this morning. matt and savannah? >> thanks very much. >> we have that going on in the midwest and then in the tropics, some areas of disturbance. >> that's right. we also said the bathroom is the best place to be if you can't get into a basement. that's good news. as you did mention, savannah, we're watching the tropics. we have hurricane gaston. it's going to stay out to sea. investigation area 99-l we expect this to become a tropical system over the next several days. chance of formation is 50% in the next 48 hours. 80% in five days. somewhere along this area, the five-day formation zone and the models are now coming more into alignment. through saturday in better agreement over the bahamas between the european and the u.s. model and then sunday both cross southern florida.

bring heavy rain, the european model is a little more aggressive, makes this a stronger storm, makes it probably a category 1 hurricane. whereas the u.s. model keeps it more of a tropical storm. look at the rainfall amounts. water temperature at 90 degrees. that means there could be intensification and where the rainfall amounts are anywhere from 5 to locally 10 inches in southern florida. so we're going to continue to track this. but again right now we're watching these models. >> all right, al. thank you very much. the death toll is rising this morning from a terror attack on the american university in kabul, afghanistan. gunmen storming the campus leading to an hour's long siege there. nbc's kelly cobiella has the latest for us. kelly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. students are attending funerals for their classmates this morning. at least 13 people killed. six of them students and a

and fulbright scholar. this law professor was planning to return to the u.s. for his ph.d. instead he was killed in a terrifying nine-hour siege. students barricading themselves in classrooms. some desperately calling family members. >> she was worrying and crying and telling me please pray for me because maybe this is my last time that i talk to you. >> reporter: two attackers firing at will. >> they are just shooting, i classmates. >> reporter: the target the sprawling american university in kabul. a car bomb and then two men with grenades and guns stormed in. >> we didn't think it was safe so therefore we jumped from the second floor. >> reporter: afghan forces responded. u.s. forces were there to advise. >> the security situation inside afghanistan is still one that's concerning. >> reporter: earlier this month in kabul, two professors, an american and an australian, were

worse and the war now 15 years since the u.s. invaded is intensifying again. this morning in kabul, more than 100 students trapped inside for hours were finally freed. police say the two gunmen were killed. no claim of responsibility yet. it could have been either the taliban or isis. this morning at least three people are still in the hospital in serious condition and for now the university is closed. matt, savannah? >> terrifying. let's talk about the presidential race in this country. hillary clinton is now firing back at that report claiming her work as secretary of state was influenced by her family's charity. we have both sides covered this morning, beginning with nbc's andrea mitchell. andrea, good morning to you. >> good morning. hillary clinton planning to go on offense against donald trump today as her husband joins in in strongly defending the clinton foundation from trump's charges of pay for play.

ceo tim cook late wednesday calling into cnn defending the clinton foundation from donald trump's attacks. >> what trump has said is ridiculous. my work as secretary of state was not influenced by any outside forces. i made policy decisions based on what i thought was right to keep americans safe. >> clinton also questions about whether colin powell really advised her to use a private email account. acknowledging her past answers about e-mails have gotten her into trouble. >> i've been asked many, many questions in the past year about e-mails. and what i've learned is that when i try to explain what happened, it can sound like i'm trying to excuse what i did. and there are no excuses. >> bill clinton also in campaign mode, promising he will stop

corporate contributions if his wife is elected. >> i made it clear if she becomes president we'll have to do more than we did when she was secretary of state because if you make a mistake as president you can't. >> the democratic nominee shifting her focus back to trump, planning to accuse him of letting right wing conspiracy theoryists of taking campaign. he called bill crystal a renegade jew. and accused president obama of importing more hating muslims. clinton's message today will be that donald trump's new attempt to pivot toward moderation for the general election is a head fake telling those all-important suburban swing voters trump's republican party is still too extreme for you. matt and savannah? >> all right. andrea, thank you very much. >> donald trump had strong words

he called her a bigot. and this morning, the question, did trump just make a major reversal on his campaign promise to deport every undocumented immigrant? nbc's hallie jackson following all of it from trump tower. >> reporter: good morning to you. hillary clinton firing back at that bigot line you mentioned that wasn't off the cuff. trump and his team scripting it. meanwhile, the gop nominee is set to meet here at trump with gop african-american and hispanic leaders as he weighs what would be a dramatic change to his toughest immigration positions. it's one of donald trump's most amped up attacks yet. >> hillary clinton is a bigot who sees people of color only as votes. >> reporter: the reaction of this woman behind trump going viral. watch. >> hillary clinton is a bigot.

>> reporter: clinton in a phone interview on cnn previewing how she will respond in reno today. >> donald trump has shown us who he is. we ought to believe him. he's taking a hate movement mainstream. >> calling trump -- >> someone who is very much peddling bigotry and prejudice and paranoia. >> clinton targeted not just by trump, but a surprise guest making a mississippi >> if i was an american citizen, i wouldn't vote for hillary clinton if you paid me. in fact, i wouldn't vote for hillary clinton if she paid me. >> the sentiment behind brexit, anger with the status quo similar to what many say fueled trump's rise here but he's been accused of racism abroad muddling the message as trump tries to court minority voters

immigration apparently changing again. a year ago here is what he told nbc's chuck todd about deporting families of undocumented immigrants. >> we'll keep the families together. we have to keep the families together. >> you're going to keep them together -- >> they have to go. >> they have to pay taxes. there's no amnesty as such. we work with them. i've had very strong people come up to me and they've said, mr. trump, i love you but to take a person that's been here for 15 or 20 years and throw them and mr. trump. i mean, i have it all the time. >> at a town hall trump getting advice from the audience. >> who does not want them thrown out? >> reporter: if it sounds a bit murky about trump's immigration position, he's promising some clarity. the candidate saying he'll reveal details of a fleshed out

>> weather is brought to you by camping world. get one stop shopping for everything rv at your nearby camping world rv supercenter. >> our 8:00 update is in now as we track the tropics. we do have a category 1 storm with gaston but what we are watching is investigation area 99-l. right now a chance of formation to a tropical system. 50% in the next 48 hours. this zone. you can see models are becoming better in agreement. european and u.s. model. by saturday in the bahamas. by sunday it's somewhere along southern florida with an increasing threat for heavy rain. the european model strengthened this more. why? there's a lot more warm water. water temperatures in the gulf at about 90. both models track it up the west coast of florida. stronger intensity for the european model.

anywhere from 5 to 10 inches of rain especially along the western coast of florida. that's what's going on around the country. here's w >> don't forget you can catch us if you head out the door. take us with you. >> good idea. by the way, you have an exclusive first look at a new toy. it's an important toy. >> it is. national oceanic and atmospheric

generation of satellites that will upgrade the weather data we bring to you. think of when you had dialup compared to your new high-speed broadband. we got an exclusive look when we went down to florida to check it out. 4:30 this morning there was a lot more of this beach. the storm is still a dangerous storm. >> are you okay? >> like i say, when it rains it pours. now more than ever, we see an increase in extreme weather. with the forecast constantly calling for improved technology, noaa has a plan more than ten years in the making. in november, the agency launches the next generation of weather satellites known as goes r. dubbed a game changer in weather forecasting, it will monitor the earth in near real time for the

warnings. it was built in colorado and shipped to just outside cape canaveral florida where a crew unwrapped it carefully like a great birthday present. i was lucky enough to receive an invitation for an exclusive first look. before i could get a peek, i had to go through serious decontamination procedures. >> we don't want any particles, hair, skin cells, dust. >> you don't have to worry about hair. >> it's very clean environment. >> two a so-called bunny suit, air showers and rubber gloves may seem like overkill but the oil from one fingerprint could potentially ruin the highly sensitive instruments. properly wrapped i was allowed to enter the clean room. >> welcome to goes r. >> how does this help us forecast more accurately? >> this is going from black and

tornado outbreak. >> the satellite will scan the earth five times faster at four times the image resolution while also detecting lightning. once the goes r satellite is in orbit and functional, in six months it will send back more weather data than all u.s. weather satellites combined in the last 41 years. in other words, a cutting edge way to tell you exactly what's happening in your neck of the for the average person watching this at home, what does that mean for them? >> someone worried about a tornado outbreak, this will give them a few more minutes warning and more precision. it's not just more warning. it will happen this street and that town not that town. >> once launched goes r will undergo six months of testing. we expect it to be up and running for next year's hurricane season. >> i haven't seen you this excited since doppler 4000.

chain when it comes to weather satellites around the world. nobody has anything like this. >> very cool. thank you very much. let's go over to savannah. >> all right. thank you. we're so happy to have actress, entrepreneur and mom jessica alba here fitting us into her busy schedule this morning. she's starring in the new movie called "mechanic: resurrection." good morning to you. resurrecti" good morning to you. >> good morning to you too. action roots. >> i started off my career doing a tv show called "dark angels" with james cameron. i did lots of stunt training and lots of action and i really haven't been able to use that part of my skill set in a really long time. so when i was offered the opportunity to do this movie with jason, who i'm a huge fan of. >> he's a cult hero. >> his action movies are always

so, yeah, i jumped at the opportunity and also, you know, being able to see the female lead and not just be in distress. it's a love story and normally you don't see that in jason's movies. >> did you have to get in shape and learn to fight and all that? >> i learned a bunch of different disciplines in martial arts. and it basically just take your opponent down basically with anything that's around as quickly as possible and then you get out of the situation. it's brutal. it's fast to the point and it was fun to do because my day-to-day is at an office usually. and not going in and kicking some butt.

locations. thailand, which i am officially jealous. if you shoot another movie in thailand -- >> you are so invited. for me it was a dream job. i got to do action. i got to be in a movie with jason which i wanted to do and we shot in thailand and the water is gorgeous. it's teal and it's really beautiful. >> you talked about your day job. you are quite the business woman. "forbes" value your company at $1.7 billion. you are not one of these celebrities who puts her name with a company and then see you later. i hear you're in that office every day. >> i'm part of the day-to-day. i founded the company and my involvement in the company is when i take a product to market,

i'll work with consumer insights team and identify that we have strict honest standards in the formulations but that it can compete with conventional products. you want it to perform like everything else but with cleaner, better for you ingredients and i work with a supply chain to make sure we have packaging that will go with it. it will be compatible and then we do consumer testing and then i work with bring it out so we're working with ulta beauty in all stores a across the country and we're an e-commerce brand as well so i work with the online team. >> it's grown in five years. there's great parts of that. a downside is you do face lawsuits. people probably heard of a couple of them. one of them has to do with the sunscreen and people were seeing pictures online does the sunscreen really work? i know there's a lawsuit there.

what do you have to say about that? >> you know, obviously we want our customers to have the best experience with our brand but if an organization wants to bring awareness to their cause, i am an easy target and our brand is an easy target obviously because i get the different kind of attention than other brands would. so it's just sort of what happens. if anyone does research understands and our customers areav and understand the integrity of our products. we stand by our ingredients. the effectiveness of the products and we're pretty optimistic that we're going to win every case. >> there's a couple of them that are class-action lawsuits. one that has to do with laundry detergent. one with baby formula. do you feel like you are more of a target not just because it's a big company but because your name is on it?

would probably try to put a spotlight on my cause and there's no easier way than someone who is like me. it's just a headline really. when you look into any of it, they are baseless. no merit behind any of it. >> some people will say where there's smoke there must be fire. you say your products are safe? >> they're amazing. and what's incredible is if anything it gives our customers an opportunity to speak out tremendously over the last 4 1/2 years, and we really hit a note with the millennials. they want safe, effective products. they want them to be affordable. beautiful design. and the convenience that we can be delivered to their home. they just love it. so we have had a really positive effect on so many people's lives. it's a dream come true. that's all i wanted. >> i have to let you go. you have two darling girls.

businesswoman, actress, entrepreneur. we'll see. >> i just want them to be happy. >> thank you so much. >> thank you so much. good to have you ? >> thank you so much. good to have you sleep number beds with sleepiq technology give you the knowledge to adjust for the best sleep ever. the time is now for the biggest sale of the year, where all beds are on sale! save 50% on the labor day limited edition bed. only at a sleep number store. coming up on channel 20. >> i'm corey rose. here's a look at what's happening on channel 20 for 9news 8:00 a.m. a serial robber targets a string of banks across denver, the man police are tracking today. and almost time to dig out the ski gear and when you could -- when you do, you could load it onto a train instead of into

real story of "the devil wears

8:41. we're back with john krasinski, star and director of the new movie the "hollars" playing a struggling artist that returns home when his mother gets sick which means spending time with a >> this is daisy's house? >> you divorced her years ago. >> i agreed to a divorce but not some strange man hanging around my daughters. >> we got to go. >> get down. >> what is it? >> get down. >> mine doesn't work. >> get down. >> he's coming. he's coming. he's coming. >> he's coming over. i'm going to kill you.

>> i said somewhat dysfunctional, it's very dysfunctional. how are you? >> great. are you jet lagged from rio? >> just one hour. i'm back in the swing. you were attached to this project six or seven years ago as an actor. how did you come to take control of it? >> about four years later the financeeer said i can't make it happen. after thinking about it for a second, i thought i had to do it. these movies are the type of movies i used to love that aren't being made anymore. i fell in love with it. i decided to take it on myself. to be honest the first call i made was martin. >> the casting is critical because there has to be that feel that these people could actually be part of the family. you seem to have gotten that

can't cast people who are going to do caricatures. for me family movies can even if manip manipulative. it's so honest and real and people trying their best, which is everybody. i come from a very loving tight knit beautiful family and yet at the end of reading this script i thought that's my family. there's something that everybody can relate to about this family. >> you managed to do something else which is incredibly difficult in movie making. mom is sick. not just sick with a cold. she has a brain tumor. there are sad, emotional moments but you bring out humor in the midst of those moments. that's not easy. >> jim wrote every detail in this script. unbelievable. he makes hairpin turns between drama and comedy unlike anything i read and those are real life.

can't prepare for good. life happens to you. i was a kid that laughed in church. i felt like that energy was so weird and yet that's the energy that's in this movie. >> it's universal because we can all identify with it. no situation is totally sad and no situation is totally happy. >> absolutely. >> you said something earlier in the orange room that i'm going to hold you to. you said you have seen "devil wears prada" over 100 times. that's nearly impossible. >> i saw before i met emily. what you get on camera is a confession that i was her stalker and i somehow pulled off a wedding. >> explain how you saw it the first time. you and a buddy were going to see "superman" or something. >> i don't know how you heard this story. we went into a movie. i think it was sold out. so we said this movie i heard is good. it has word devil in it. masculine.

movies i had ever seen. i was wiping away tears. it's good. it's okay. i'm going to see it twice today. >> when you met emily, did you tell her that? >> not the first date. first date was about trying to look tough and impress her. i think it was really about a week or two into dating she popped by my house to say hi. she was in between meetings. i was watching it because it she opened the door. i flicked the channel so fast i think she thought i was watching something inappropriate. >> you had that movie on a loop. it all worked out. >> it all worked out. >> congratulations on the "hollars." good to see you. coming up next, charlie is more than a pretty face. we'll find out what our new puppy gets to do after he leaves us every morning.

>> charlie is about to fall asleep. we've been having so much fun getting to know our new puppy. you are a puddle of mush. >> i'm so in love. >> you love him so much. >> what does charl our cameras followed him home. >> get a charlie fix. when the show ends and cameras turn off, the real work begins. charlie heads home to long island with his puppy raiser olivia for a full day of training. big brother cowboy meets them at the door. then it's time to get down to business.

's basically from black and white television to ultrahigh def. now we get an image every 30 minutes. we'll be getting high definition images every 30 seconds. it's going to be a game changer. there's lightning detection on this thing. we were frozen in time there. it's going to be -- it really is going to put us at the top of the food chain when it comes to -- >> where are we now? >> we're not. japan is number one. now we'll leapfrog them.

15 minutes to tornado warnings. it will give us better information looking at hurricanes. it really is going to help us with almost now cast. >> would it help yesterday in indiana? that was crazy. >> it fired up in indiana. we had these tornadoes fire up. starbucks was destroyed. and earlier in the day the national weather service had not issued a risk area for this. we didn't see it coming. it just kind of fired. it blew up. if we had that satellite up there, it would have given us that extra warning time for people which would have made a big difference. >> you contained your excitement. that was well laid out. i know you are bursting at the buttons. >> my head is about to explode. in fact, the launch is november 4th. this is so big in the weather world that it's like ha"harry potter" time. >> chat rooms must be exploding with you and your buddies. >> 10,000 people are coming down

you're america's weatherman. >> i'm going to strap myself to the capsule. >> you weren't gone long but we got you a gift. after our fantastic discussion about ryan lochte in rio last friday and the viral video that came out of it, which is a gem. i hope you have seen it. >> if you haven't. >> here's a reminder in case you missed it. >> great swimmers. we don't want anpo >> this right here, sir is a medal stirrer. commands the loudest noise. >> we decided -- >> the fun thing is i don't even remember during that stirring the drink. maybe because i had two before. >> back ups just in case. >> this is going to be engraved. we decided when you think it's time to move on, when you've had

you want to be heard. >> that's our little moment. >> going to copyright that. >> my father would knock on the table when he wanted attention. that made everybody -- dad's talking. on a serious note, leslie jones once again is being harassed on social media. remember, this time hackers got into her website and posted some exp explicit photographers of her along with personal information and a terrible gorilla from the cincinnati zoo. she's been through this before. when "ghostbusters" came out she went through a series of attacks, racist comments. >> sexist comments. >> paul came to her defense. a ton of celebrities came. >> she quit twitter for a while. >> she couldn't take it anymore and then folks behind twitter tracked down some of those who

kicked them off social media. his people kind of rallied behind him. we thought it was done. leslie had gone off to rio. was darling of the games. her tweets had gone viral. and it seemed as if all was okay. >> she made a triumphant return to social media. she went to all of the events. this was all through snapchat and instagram and now it's happ defense. this attack is troubling. the racism percolating in society is shameful and sad. she made a movie. that's it. >> these acts against leslie jones are sickening. it's sexist and racist and disgusting. he called it a hate crime. this ain't kids joshing around. >> i truly don't know where people are so hateful toward

awful? what's more impressive is that regular folks are out there and saying and trying to defeat the haters out there. >> i told billy this earlier. last night i did cry. it really hit me in a bad spot. >> for her. >> for her. for kids who get bullied. people write dumb stuff every day that you read and you go on. we've talked about how you get through the noise but when it's is racist. this sexist. it's abusive. school starts now for a lot of kids. the idea of just a pack of people -- i told billy. i describe it as it takes one wolf and then a bunch of sheep and they follow and they attack you. >> when we were growing up, it was maybe in your class or maybe in your grade but now it's the whole school. it's all about james corden on the cover of "rolling stone"

i know about going to high school and being heavy and he talks about it. inside you're terrified but if you're funny or quicker then them, they won't circle back on you. i used to use humor to deflect the bullying that i would get. >> we're taught if you stand up -- you tell your kid being bullied go up and stand up to them and they'll go away. what leslie did was come back to social media and she stood up tall >> it happened again. that's really sad. did it work for you that way? >> i think that after a while you develop a shell, if you were, and use humor. many people use different things. i know james corden did. that's what i did. and eventually you go on. it's still tough. >> it scars you. you think about it. we're adults and we've all been -- i was bullied in school as a kid.

everyone had siblings. that made you the outlier for random reasons. i think for me, anyway, it requires a constant substantive conversation about people like james corden putting him up as a good example. it may bug you but you get through it in different ways. >> i think in a sense between racism and also weight, those are one of those things that we still haven't dealt with that yet. >> we love both of them. jameor game in my opinion. >> i don't know what side of brexit he was on but only thing causing a panic for the british right now is the olympic luggage fiasco. seemed like a good idea to have everyone with matching bags from the same team and caused a frenzy at the baggage claim. wait until you see photos and have you seen chelsea lately? >> i see what you did there? >> she's here what are you doing right now? making a cake! ayla reminds me of like a master chef and

i don't. and then one episode you could turn on and it's devoted to russia or we have in-studio guests. i like that fluidity. i don't have to start every episode the same way and finish it the same way. just get to have fun and say, you know, forget a format. >> and you waded into the tinder waters for some time. how's it working? >> it works when you work it. it's like aa. you really have to -- >> i never heard that comparison. tinder and aa. >> you have to really be involved if you want progress and results. you have to really get in there. so for instance since i live out of l.a., when i come to new york it's a perfect opportunity to go on my dating app and see who is here for a night and meet for a drink after i'm done with my responsibilities. >> do people really believe it's you? >> yes. there are people that are well known on those sites. >> do you use your picture? >> of course. whose picture am i going to use? his? >> is there something that's a
