Jay Towers in the Morning — Fox 2 News Headlines: Grand Rapids Is Flooded. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
Fox News headlines say a couple things. There's new video out of Grand Rapids showing the streets are flooded there after powerful storms overnight. Some cars stranded in water that reached knee deep in spots. Are you serious? We're going to be dealing with the aftermath of several areas that are underwater in Grand Rapids today. Yeah. Man, that west side of the state has been hit real hard between the tornadoes and the flooding. Speaking of, you're right, the cleanup continues. After last week's deadly tornado that killed four people in Union City, about 30 minutes south of Battle Creek, National Weather Service now says the sewer may have been an F3 with winds around 150 miles per hour. One survivor says he only had minutes to take cover. Oh, man. Well, let's create, like, I don't know about you guys, but anytime I hear the tornado siren and this is not, don't follow my lead, I don't really, I don't do anything about it. Like I hear it and I'm like, now look outside and I'm like, do you want to hear the tornado siren? You don't need to go to the basement? Not really, no. There's a tornado spotted. They don't do that as there might be. No, I know.
Well, I know that. It's the first Saturday of the month. Well, if you heard that tornado siren in the old I heart building in Farmington, you'd certainly act. I never forget that. I thought we were under attack because I was right under that siren and it sounds differently when you're under it. Sorry, I was at our building and I made a video that I put out that I put out into the world. Yeah, but you also didn't know under attack. You also didn't know that they did test the first Saturday of every month. I think I did, but I didn't know it was the first Saturday of the month and then I was under the alarm. Now did you cover that in the elephant experience after the fact or I tried to glaze over that because that was my proud moment. I would have put it in my podcast. Spring Break travel could get messy as the Department of Homeland Security remains underfunded or unfunded, I should say. Some TSA workers are missing paychecks calling off work with more than 170 million passengers expected this season. I'll tell you this. I posted that on Facebook yesterday and I got a couple of salty messages for and rightfully so.
Couple salty messages from people saying this is not everywhere praising our TSA in Detroit because our TSA in Detroit is making it happen and the lines that we're seeing in other big cities are not happening in Detroit. Okay. Maybe I should have been my post. I needed to say that. I did say some cities. I didn't say all cities also don't be salty do an FYI but I don't know if you know but here we're good. I look at it this way. I mean, they're right. There is no better TSA and no friendlier TSA than our TSA in Detroit. That's the thing. There's so much nicer than when you go to the Orlando airport, my god, now we had a good experience last year. No, they've changed their tune the last couple years, but they can be just down right nasty to us anymore. Yeah. Here they come. They got to talk. They got to talk. Hi. They're all Disney smile. Stole children's formula. Yeah. They're bags. Yeah, I think they got to talk to him. Pope Leo has accepted the resignation of a San Diego bishop accused of stealing $250,000
from his congregation. The bishop was arrested at the airport trying to leave the country and now faces several charges including embezzlement and money laundering. Was it worth it? $250,000? You're clean of God. How does that drive with your position? Not well. That would help not steal. It's in there. Exactly. Well, there's a lot of things you shouldn't be doing. I just, when you are of the cloth. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah. Finally, Ford is recalling a 1.7 million vehicles because of a rear view camera glitch that can shut down or even display an upside down image. The company says it is not received reports of crashes. It's offering a free software update for some models. Yeah, I had this recall on my vehicle and I don't have a Ford, a Cadillac, but I was like, no, I gotta recall what I do. I pulled it in the driveway and it was just like, shut your car off and hit this button. Oh. And it was like, okay. And that was it? And yeah, it hooked up to the internet and it fixed it.
I love that. We call Saul. That's nice. Yeah. Like the new cars can do that. All right, there you go.
