Florida City preps
Evacuations continue in Florida and Georgia ahead of Hurricane Irma. Nearly 7 million people in the storm's path have been asked to flee. CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano joins CBSN from Florida City, Florida, to discuss.
Florida
Irma forecast
Hurricane Irma is expected to turn toward Florida and strengthen as it approaches the Florida Keys. Mark DeMaria, acting deputy director of the National Hurricane Center, joins CBSN with the latest forecast.
Irma's impact on Fla. dunes
As Florida prepares for a direct hit from Hurricane Irma, one of the big concerns is the storm surge that will batter coastal areas. In addition to threat it poses to life and property, storm surge could leave lasting damage to the coastline. Hilary Stockdon, research oceanographer with the U.S. Geological Survey, joins "CBS This Morning: Saturday" to discuss the potential impact.
Irma: Stay or go?
Kathleen Koch is the founder of Leaders Link, an organization that helps local leaders share disaster lessons. She joins CBSN's Stephanie Sy to discuss Hurricane Irma's strength and how to prepare.
Florida gas shortage
Hurricane Irma is expected to make landfall in Florida over the weekend, and residents began evacuating their homes earlier this week. As drivers head north, gas stations are having trouble keeping up with the demand. CBS News correspondent David Begnaud joins CBSN from Pompano Beach, Florida with the latest.
Hurricane Irma's path
Florida residents making final preparations before Hurricane Irma is set to hit. The Category 4 storm is currently heading north from the Caribbean. Dr. Michael Brennan, chief hurricane specialist at the National Hurricane Center, joins CBSN with the latest.
Gas shortages ahead of Irma
If you're running late to evacuate in Florida, it could be too late. Gas stations, operating on fumes, are shutting off the pumps. Nearly 40 percent of stations in Miami are out. David Begnaud has more.
FL first responders
As Hurricane Harvey barreled through Texas, units from Florida's urban search and rescue team rushed toward the storm. Over five days they saved more than 800 people. On Tuesday, the team returned to a hero's welcome in Orlando, and potentially an even worse storm: Irma. Adriana Diaz reports.
Coral Gables boats
Just south of Miami is Coral Gables, Florida, with a population of 50,000. More than half of the city is actually water, and many there have chosen to ride out the storm aboard boats in the canals. Jeff Glor has more.
Irma evacuations
One of the largest evacuations in U.S. history is reaching a critical point. More than 2.5 million people live in mandatory evacuation zones in Georgia and Florida. Irma has sustained winds of 155 miles an hour, and the forecast models seem to agree that South Florida will take a hit this weekend. Mark Strassmann has more.
Tracking Irma
Hurricane Irma is now a Category 4 storm, currently in the Caribbean and heading north to Florida. CBS News weather producer David Parkinson joins CBSN with the latest on Irma's path.
Hurricane Jose grows
Hurricane Irma isn't the only powerful storm out there. Hurricane Jose has strengthened to a Category 4 storm as it churns in the Atlantic Ocean. CBS News weather producer David Parkinson joins CBSN to discuss.
Medical care amid Hurricane Irma
As Hurricane Irma approaches southeast Florida, the state's health system is mobilizing for a surge in demand for medical care. At least 11 medical facilities in the Florida area are being evacuated and health officials are warning residents to take action now to avoid an emergency. Dr. David Agus joins "CBS This Morning" to offer advice for patients in Irma's path.
Miami Beach mayor on Hurricane Irma
More than 90,000 residents of Miami Beach are under mandatory evacuation orders Friday. It's the city's largest evacuation since Hurricane Wilma in 2005. Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine, who has called Irma a "nuclear hurricane," joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss how the city is preparing.
Irma's most dangerous quadrant
Many are calling Hurricane Irma's current track the worst-case scenario for south Florida. New York's WCBS chief weathercaster Lonnie Quinn joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss why Irma's impact will be felt far beyond the center of the storm.
Irma puts Miami coastline in peril
Hurricane Irma's storm surges are a big concern. FEMA estimates about 2.5 million Florida homes are in flood hazard zones. Many of those homes are in the densely-populated Miami-Dade and Broward Counties where more than 4.5 million people live. Jeff Glor gets a bird's-eye view of the Miami coastline under threat.
Fla. governor on Hurricane Irma
Florida Gov. Rick Scott joins "CBS This Morning" from West Palm Beach to urge residents and visitors to get out of Florida before it's too late, address concerns about gas shortages throughout the state, and explain why Irma is more dangerous than Hurricane Andrew.
Gas shortages in Florida
Gas shortage in Florida is making it even harder for people trying to get out of Hurricane Irma's path. Some people are waiting an hour or more before they even reach the pumps. David Begnaud reports from Pompano Beach.
Gridlock as Floridians evacuate
Hurricane Irma is expected to reach Florida Sunday. Nearly every major city in the state is a potential target. About 1.4 million people live in Florida's mandatory evacuation areas, and the governor has ordered all Florida schools to close so the buildings can be used as shelters. Mark Strassmann reports.

Florida Keys evacuation
Category 5 Hurricane Irma has caused severe destruction in the Caribbean and is now heading toward Florida. Florida Keys residents are heading north before the storm makes landfall. CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano is in Key Largo, where she spent time with fishermen who are tying up their boats before the storm hits.
Irma hits the Caribbean

Missile crisis: The hard truths about America's military arsenal
The war with Iran was launched more than six months ago, and shows no signs of ending. In the early days of the conflict, the United States fired off thousands of long-range, precision-guided missiles. Now, with its arsenal depleted, the Pentagon is faced with the stark prospect of not having enough high-tech weapons to sustain a conflict against a true military power like China, and has ordered the defense industry onto a "wartime footing" to replenish its stockpiles. That will cost billions of dollars and require years of manufacturing. CBS News national security correspondent David Martin visited some of the plants now ramping up production to rebuild America's military arsenal.
