[0:04] On the CBS Evening News this Wednesday

[0:06] from the Florida Panhandle, Michael

[0:09] makes landfall and history. The most

[0:11] powerful hurricane ever to hit this

[0:13] region knocks out power and causes

[0:15] widespread damage. We have a team of

[0:18] correspondents, producers, and

[0:19] photojournalists spread across the

[0:21] hurricane zone to bring you extensive

[0:23] coverage beginning with the headlines in

[0:26] 60 seconds.

[0:29] Hurricane Michael is a hurricane of the

[0:30] worst kind.

[0:32] A category 4 landfall in the month of

[0:34] October.

[0:35] One of the strongest storms ever to hit

[1:07] damage?

[1:09] people have left.

[1:10] I am scared to death of the people that

[1:11] chose not to evacuate. This is a

[1:13] horrible, horrible storm.

[1:16] THE WIND'S INCREDIBLY STRONG.

[1:18] WHOA!

[1:19] THIS IS A bad hurricane.

[1:20] We're going to have to call it quits.

[1:21] We're going to get to a safe location.

[1:22] I felt uncomfortable with the storm and

[1:24] we got out of there because this is what

[1:26] I was worried about.

[1:27] Oh!

[1:32] Good evening. I'm Jeff Flour in Panama
