00:00:11.578 --> 00:00:12.612
OMAR JIMINEZ: Hey, everyone.

00:00:12.645 --> 00:00:15.582
Hope your Thursday is
off to a fantastic start.

00:00:15.615 --> 00:00:18.084
I'm Omar Jimenez, a CNN
National Correspondent

00:00:18.118 --> 00:00:19.052
based in New York.

00:00:19.085 --> 00:00:21.454
And I'm filling in for
the one and only Coy

00:00:21.488 --> 00:00:22.655
the rest of the week.

00:00:22.689 --> 00:00:24.691
We're going to be covering
extreme weather in California

00:00:24.724 --> 00:00:27.394
and looking at the potential
impact of social media

00:00:27.427 --> 00:00:28.595
on teens.

00:00:28.628 --> 00:00:31.564
But first, we're going to
start with news from the sky.

00:00:31.598 --> 00:00:33.366
The Federal Aviation
Administration

00:00:33.400 --> 00:00:35.568
issued a short
ground stop yesterday

00:00:35.602 --> 00:00:37.570
of all domestic
planes after there

00:00:37.604 --> 00:00:41.074
was an outage to a system that
provides pilots with notices

00:00:41.107 --> 00:00:42.609
they need before flying.

00:00:42.642 --> 00:00:45.445
Now, normal operations resumed
later yesterday morning.

00:00:45.478 --> 00:00:48.681
But delays from the ground
stop continued into the day.

00:00:48.715 --> 00:00:50.450
When we recorded our
show on Wednesday,

00:00:50.483 --> 00:00:53.920
there were more than 4,000
flight delays nationwide.

00:00:53.953 --> 00:00:56.256
The airports in Chicago,
O'Hare International

00:00:56.289 --> 00:00:57.891
and Midway
International airports,

00:00:57.924 --> 00:00:59.292
were especially impacted.

00:00:59.325 --> 00:01:00.827
And they continued
to have a ground

00:01:00.860 --> 00:01:03.363
stop for all inbound
and outbound flights

00:01:03.396 --> 00:01:05.231
into the day on Wednesday.

00:01:05.265 --> 00:01:08.068
Now, the specific system
experiencing the outage

00:01:08.101 --> 00:01:11.704
is called the Notice to Air
Missions, which alerts pilots

00:01:11.738 --> 00:01:15.575
about close runways, equipment
outages, and potential hazards

00:01:15.608 --> 00:01:18.144
along a flight route
or at a location

00:01:18.178 --> 00:01:19.612
that could impact flight.

00:01:19.646 --> 00:01:21.781
The Biden administration
and Secretary

00:01:21.815 --> 00:01:23.550
of Transportation
Pete Buttigieg,

00:01:23.583 --> 00:01:26.086
are looking into what
caused this disruption.

00:01:26.119 --> 00:01:29.389
And if you saw over
Christmas, Southwest Airlines

00:01:29.422 --> 00:01:32.392
canceled thousands of flights,
stranding tens of thousands

00:01:32.425 --> 00:01:33.293
of travelers.

00:01:33.326 --> 00:01:35.061
The federal government
is zeroing in

00:01:35.095 --> 00:01:38.198
on Southwest and their system
to figure out how to prevent

00:01:38.231 --> 00:01:40.767
future issues like these.

00:01:40.800 --> 00:01:41.734
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:01:41.768 --> 00:01:43.203
All right, 10 second trivia--

00:01:43.236 --> 00:01:48.541
name the third largest US State,
whose state motto is "Eureka."

00:01:48.575 --> 00:01:51.644
Is it Texas, Alaska,
California, or Montana?

00:01:51.678 --> 00:01:55.281
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:01:55.315 --> 00:01:58.318
And meaning, "I have
found it," "Eureka" is

00:01:58.351 --> 00:02:00.120
the state motto of California.

00:02:00.153 --> 00:02:03.957
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:02:03.990 --> 00:02:06.659
Up next, we're headed to
California, where residents

00:02:06.693 --> 00:02:09.462
across the state are
recovering from deadly storms

00:02:09.496 --> 00:02:14.334
that brought area rainfall
totals 400% to 600%

00:02:14.367 --> 00:02:15.468
above average.

00:02:15.502 --> 00:02:18.505
The storm meant heavy
downpours and strong winds,

00:02:18.538 --> 00:02:20.907
forcing thousands
of evacuations.

00:02:20.940 --> 00:02:23.409
Response crews were
responsible for clearing

00:02:23.443 --> 00:02:25.912
flooded neighborhoods
and crumbled roadways.

00:02:25.945 --> 00:02:29.516
And at least 17 people
have died as a result.

00:02:29.549 --> 00:02:31.918
Also, more than 6
million people are

00:02:31.951 --> 00:02:33.186
under flood alerts this week.

00:02:33.219 --> 00:02:34.587
And it's not over yet.

00:02:34.621 --> 00:02:37.190
Another round of
rain is on the way.

00:02:37.223 --> 00:02:40.460
It's the first of four more
atmospheric river events.

00:02:40.493 --> 00:02:41.961
But what does that mean?

00:02:41.995 --> 00:02:44.731
Atmospheric rivers are
long, narrow regions

00:02:44.764 --> 00:02:46.766
in the atmosphere
that can transport

00:02:46.799 --> 00:02:49.068
moisture thousands of miles.

00:02:49.102 --> 00:02:51.871
They're expected to hit
California in the next 10 days.

00:02:51.905 --> 00:02:54.707
So we'll hear now from Kyung
Lah, a national correspondent

00:02:54.741 --> 00:02:57.677
for CNN, based in Los Angeles.

00:02:57.710 --> 00:02:59.746
KYUNG LAH: During recent
historic droughts,

00:02:59.779 --> 00:03:04.284
California prayed for
rain, but not like this.

00:03:04.317 --> 00:03:08.454
Two days of torrential rain,
thunderstorms, and wind gusts

00:03:08.488 --> 00:03:11.624
are pounding California,
causing mudslides,

00:03:11.658 --> 00:03:15.094
overflowing rivers, and
triggering extensive flooding.

00:03:15.128 --> 00:03:17.063
[TREES CRASHING]

LYNDA HOPKINS: We've
got trees down.

00:03:18.298 --> 00:03:19.265
We've got mudslides.

00:03:19.299 --> 00:03:20.900
We've got folks actually
trapped in areas where

00:03:20.934 --> 00:03:22.769
we had major road failures.

00:03:22.802 --> 00:03:24.938
KYUNG LAH: At least
17 people have

00:03:24.971 --> 00:03:27.140
died as a result of
the storms after more

00:03:27.173 --> 00:03:30.777
than 18 inches of rain fell in
parts of Southern California.

00:03:30.810 --> 00:03:34.113
And high wind advisories were
issued on the Central Coast.

00:03:34.147 --> 00:03:38.918
In San Francisco a rare
hailstorm in Haight-Ashbury.

00:03:38.952 --> 00:03:40.987
And throughout
Northern California--

00:03:41.020 --> 00:03:43.223
- --the rain hammered
here pretty bad.

00:03:43.256 --> 00:03:44.857
KYUNG LAH: The Russian
River has flooded

00:03:44.891 --> 00:03:46.859
following torrential downpours.

00:03:46.893 --> 00:03:49.696
Some residents have been
without power for a week.

00:03:49.729 --> 00:03:52.632
In Santa Barbara
County, mass evacuations

00:03:52.665 --> 00:03:55.602
after back-to-back storms
saturated the ground.

00:03:55.635 --> 00:03:57.837
- It was pouring, the
wind was whipping.

00:03:57.870 --> 00:04:01.374
KYUNG LAH: --following years
of extreme drought and fires.

RANDY WILLIAMS: On
the mountainside here,

00:04:03.076 --> 00:04:04.510
the debris just
started coming down

00:04:04.544 --> 00:04:08.414
and just filled up four
feet or so and pretty

00:04:08.448 --> 00:04:09.649
much buried the truck.

00:04:09.682 --> 00:04:12.719
And now it's starting to
flow towards the house.

KYUNG LAH: More than
30 million people

00:04:14.887 --> 00:04:16.522

00:04:23.830 --> 00:04:25.898
stranded in rushing waters.

00:04:25.932 --> 00:04:31.137

It just hit the wall

KYUNG LAH: In
Northern California,

00:04:39.045 --> 00:04:41.481
the rain flooded
roads and vineyards,

00:04:41.514 --> 00:04:44.784
but almost doubled the
snowpack in local mountains,

Yeah, it could be a lot worse.

KYUNG LAH: It's hard
to think about drought

00:04:54.193 --> 00:04:57.597
when this is what Southern
California is dealing with.

00:04:57.630 --> 00:05:01.067
I'm standing on a roadway
that goes back behind me.

00:05:01.100 --> 00:05:05.338
You can't see it because of
all the debris on this road.

00:05:05.371 --> 00:05:07.974
This came from this mountain.

00:05:08.007 --> 00:05:11.477
This hillside, five years
ago, burned in a wildfire.

00:05:11.511 --> 00:05:14.280
And with all the rain
and lack of vegetation,

00:05:14.314 --> 00:05:18.318
it all came down onto the
street and into these yards.

00:05:18.351 --> 00:05:21.688
The concern now is what
happens in the upcoming

00:05:21.721 --> 00:05:24.757
days with rain in the forecast.

00:05:24.791 --> 00:05:26.959
OMAR JIMINEZ: Up next, we'll
hear from Vanessa Jurkovich,

00:05:26.993 --> 00:05:30.029
a CNN business and politics
reporter, who recently took

00:05:30.063 --> 00:05:32.665
a look at social
media, specifically,

00:05:32.699 --> 00:05:35.368
TikTok's impact on teen brains.

00:05:35.401 --> 00:05:37.337
Her reporting focuses
on social media

00:05:37.370 --> 00:05:39.372
usage and the rate
of depression,

00:05:39.405 --> 00:05:41.874
especially among Gen Z users.

00:05:41.908 --> 00:05:44.410
Her research comes as
more than a dozen state

00:05:44.444 --> 00:05:46.612
governments have
actually banned TikTok

00:05:46.646 --> 00:05:48.114
on government-issued devices.

00:05:48.147 --> 00:05:51.617

I'd like to see you
wiggle, wiggle--

00:06:03.129 --> 00:06:04.664
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
In just five years,

00:06:04.697 --> 00:06:08.301
TikTok has amassed more
than 1 billion global users.

00:06:08.334 --> 00:06:09.402
- Cutting up all
the veggies that

00:06:09.435 --> 00:06:10.603
are going to go into the broth.

00:06:10.636 --> 00:06:12.071
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
Eyeballs around the world

00:06:12.105 --> 00:06:15.408
glued to the endless
content and viral videos.

00:06:15.441 --> 00:06:19.545
How long do you think you
spend on TikTok every day?

00:06:19.579 --> 00:06:20.480
- Two to three hours.

00:06:20.513 --> 00:06:21.047
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
Two to three hours?

00:06:21.080 --> 00:06:22.215
- Three to four hours.

00:06:22.248 --> 00:06:23.683
VANESSA JURKOVICH: But last
month, the US government,

00:06:23.716 --> 00:06:25.818
along with more
than a dozen states,

00:06:25.852 --> 00:06:28.354
banned TikTok on
most federal devices,

00:06:28.388 --> 00:06:30.857
citing national
security concerns

00:06:30.890 --> 00:06:34.193
over its Chinese parent
company and the possibility

00:06:34.227 --> 00:06:37.897
it could pressure TikTok
to hand over personal data.

00:06:37.930 --> 00:06:39.432
JIGGLE JIGGLE: (SINGING)
Right, it is my fear.

00:06:39.465 --> 00:06:40.967
VANESSA JURKOVICH: There
is no public evidence

00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:42.568
the Chinese government
has done that.

00:06:42.602 --> 00:06:44.971
But there is evidence
of another risk--

00:06:45.004 --> 00:06:48.608
social media's impact on
mental health, particularly

00:06:48.641 --> 00:06:50.510
among Gen Z.

00:06:50.543 --> 00:06:54.881
JEAN TWENGE: Teen depression
started to rise after 2012.

00:06:54.914 --> 00:06:56.616
So did self harm.

00:06:56.649 --> 00:06:58.384
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
Dr. Jean Twenge says,

00:06:58.418 --> 00:07:00.753
as smartphones and
social media grew,

00:07:00.787 --> 00:07:04.223
so did the rate of depression
among teens, nearly

00:07:04.257 --> 00:07:07.894
doubling between 2004 and 2019.

00:07:07.927 --> 00:07:11.731
By that year, one in
four US teen girls

00:07:11.764 --> 00:07:13.933
had experienced
clinical depression,

00:07:13.966 --> 00:07:14.934
according to Twenge.

00:07:14.967 --> 00:07:16.669
JEAN TWENGE: So what the
algorithms trying to do

00:07:16.702 --> 00:07:19.005
is get people to use
the app for longer.

00:07:19.038 --> 00:07:21.441
Because that's how the
company makes more money.

00:07:21.474 --> 00:07:23.075
VANESSA JURKOVICH: TikTok
in a statement said,

00:07:23.109 --> 00:07:25.445
quote, "One of our most
important commitments

00:07:25.478 --> 00:07:28.314
is supporting the safety
and well-being of teens.

00:07:28.347 --> 00:07:31.284
And we recognize this
work is never finished.

00:07:31.317 --> 00:07:34.353
We continue to focus on
robust safety protections

00:07:34.387 --> 00:07:37.390
for our community, while
also empowering parents

00:07:37.423 --> 00:07:39.992
with additional controls
for their teen's account

00:07:40.026 --> 00:07:42.161
through TikTok family pairing."

OLLY MURS: (SINGING) When
I saw you there, sitting--

00:07:45.965 --> 00:07:47.133
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
Users of TikTok

00:07:47.166 --> 00:07:50.069
spent an average of an hour
and a half a day on the app

00:07:50.102 --> 00:07:53.673
last year, more than any
other social platform.

00:07:53.706 --> 00:07:55.842
What is it that
keeps you scrolling,

00:07:55.875 --> 00:07:59.045
even if you know, maybe you've
spent one, two hours on it?

00:07:59.078 --> 00:08:01.180
- Once you watch the
one video, you're like,

00:08:01.214 --> 00:08:02.215
well, time to watch another.

00:08:02.248 --> 00:08:03.683
So you just keep doing--
it's like a cycle.

00:08:03.716 --> 00:08:05.485
You don't realize that
the time is passing.

00:08:05.518 --> 00:08:06.619
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
That's exactly

00:08:06.652 --> 00:08:08.488
what happened to Jerome Yankee.

00:08:08.521 --> 00:08:11.190
JEROME YANKEE: I definitely done
all nighters on TikTok before.

00:08:11.224 --> 00:08:14.126
I had just been scrolling
until the sun came up.

00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:15.862
VANESSA JURKOVICH: He
says he lost sleep,

00:08:15.895 --> 00:08:17.096
his grades suffered.

00:08:17.129 --> 00:08:18.898
He lost touch with his friends.

00:08:18.931 --> 00:08:20.967
He lost his sense of self.

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.903
In 2021, he deleted the app.

00:08:23.936 --> 00:08:25.571
JEROME YANKEE: Getting
disappointed by my own life

00:08:25.605 --> 00:08:27.139
is never something
I want to be doing,

00:08:27.173 --> 00:08:28.941
especially when I have
the power to change it.

00:08:28.975 --> 00:08:31.544
But I just wasn't because I
was spending hours on this app.

00:08:31.577 --> 00:08:33.579
HANNAH WILLIAMS: We have
like a lot of cool resources

00:08:33.613 --> 00:08:35.781
that we give to our
audience for free.

00:08:35.815 --> 00:08:37.016
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
But Hannah Williams

00:08:37.049 --> 00:08:39.418
proves the positive
side of TikTok,

00:08:39.452 --> 00:08:42.822
allowing her to create a
business, Salary Transparent

00:08:42.855 --> 00:08:46.559
Street, providing pay
transparency to her nearly 1

00:08:46.592 --> 00:08:48.094
million followers.

00:08:48.127 --> 00:08:49.562
HANNAH WILLIAMS: I
think TikTok definitely

00:08:49.595 --> 00:08:54.033
helped just because they have
such audience reach potential.

00:08:54.066 --> 00:08:55.401
VANESSA JURKOVICH:
She hopes TikTok

00:08:55.434 --> 00:08:57.904
algorithm works in her favor.

00:08:57.937 --> 00:09:00.373
HANNAH WILLIAMS: Helping people
in marginalized communities

00:09:00.406 --> 00:09:02.508
is the only reason
I am doing this.

00:09:02.542 --> 00:09:03.776
It's my entire mission.

00:09:03.809 --> 00:09:07.013

00:09:09.849 --> 00:09:11.417
OMAR JIMINEZ: Up for
today's 10 out of 10,

00:09:11.450 --> 00:09:14.687
we're showing you a volcano
that's erupt to no good.

00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:16.289
Yeah, even I've got to
get in on the puns here.

00:09:16.322 --> 00:09:17.323
Come on.

00:09:17.356 --> 00:09:19.525
Check out this time lapse
video of the Kilauea

00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.494
volcano erupting in Hawaii.

00:09:21.527 --> 00:09:23.996
The time lapse shows
smoke and lava flowing,

00:09:24.030 --> 00:09:26.999
all captured by the
US Geological Survey.

00:09:27.033 --> 00:09:29.468
There's something truly
so beautiful about this,

00:09:29.502 --> 00:09:31.637
so hot, the temperature.

00:09:31.671 --> 00:09:34.373
As you can see the lava
cooling on the surface

00:09:34.407 --> 00:09:38.010
and forming crustal plates, it's
fascinating science happening

00:09:38.044 --> 00:09:39.145
right in front of our eyes.

00:09:39.178 --> 00:09:41.681
Last up on the show today,
you know we got to do it.

00:09:41.714 --> 00:09:44.784
I want to give a special shout
out to Kennesaw Mountain High

00:09:44.817 --> 00:09:46.352
School in Kennesaw, Georgia.

00:09:46.385 --> 00:09:47.787
That's where I went.

00:09:47.820 --> 00:09:49.522
Go Mustangs.

00:09:49.555 --> 00:09:51.624
It's been amazing hanging
out with you all today.

00:09:51.657 --> 00:09:52.592
I'm Omar Jimenez.

00:09:52.625 --> 00:09:54.360
This is CNN 10.

00:09:54.393 --> 00:09:55.861
Have a great Thursday.
