For families from coast to coast it was a weekend of extreme weather, supersized storms, flash floods, buses and cars no match for the rushing water. Abcs meteorologist ginger zee has that part of the story. Reporter flash flood. Thousands of americans learning, and living the definition this weekend.

Up to a foot of rain fell in less than 24 hours. Philadelphia swamped sunday. Its wettest oneday rainfall ever, more than 8 inches.

Miami beach who has had their wettest july on record could see more rain by the end of the week. It could come from this, the remnants of dorian.

Were going to turn now to a power lunch at the white house today. Look at president obama and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton catching up on the west wing patio, fueling more speculation that shell run in 2016.

Anthony weiner, married to one of Hillary Clintons top aides, refusing to back out his run for new york mayor despite a new sexting scandal. Heres abcs White House Correspondent jim avila. Reporter it was just lunch, Hillary Clinton arriving at the white house, heading for this al fresco table for two in a meeting described as largely personal between friends, while in clintons adopted state of new york, her top aid, huma abedin, was nowhere to be seen as her disgraced husband, anthony weiner, kept on campaigning for mayor. Reporters wondering out loud if hillary had weighed in. The sexting politician resisting mounting pressure and collapsing pole numbers. There are no Second Chances why did he get in . Hes not qualified. Hes wasting time and space. Im not going to ask pendents or other politicians but let the people decide. Reporter abc news learned that mrs. Clinton reached out to weiners wife yesterday on her birthday but sources say the couple is ignoring all outside advice. While bill and hillary have not gone public, aides and advisers say theyre eager to see weiner exit the race before damage is done to a possible clinton run for the presidency. Reminding voters of the clintons own sex scandal with Hillary Clinton standing by her man. Im sitting here because i love him and i respect him. Reporter much as weiners wife has done. I love him. I have forgiven him and i believe in him. Reporter at least one scandal expert says nothing huma can say now will save her husband. I would recommend that she not campaign with him at all. The train has already left the tracks. Its already out of the station. He cant pull it back now. Reporter clinton advisers say they should not expect that the clintons will come out and speak publicly about anthony weiner. Another message weiner is apparently ignoring, that from the pollsters, the latest of which this afternoon says most of new yorkers, more than half, want him to drop out. George . Also in washington, an update on the vandalism found in some of americas most treasured monuments.

Now to a david and goliath smackdown, an oregon woman noticed problems with her Credit Report. Everyone knows how frustrating that can be but this time the little guy won big. Abcs chief Business Correspondent Rebecca Jarvis has all the details. Reporter julie miller says 8 times between 2009 and 2011 she contacted Credit Bureau equifax, filling out reams of paperwork, even highlighting their mistakes, but even after all that, she claims they still never corrected those errors. There was all kinds of Incorrect Information like for debt collector information and incorrect Social Security and birth date. Reporter for two years her Credit Report listed erroneous accounts in collection attempts, problems she says she discovered only after she was rejected by a bank when she wanted to open a new account. We put some of the things off that we had planned to do during this phase because we couldnt get credit. Reporter what makes this story different from so many others with similar complaints is that a federal jury in oregon has just awarded miller 18. 6 million, one of the biggest settlements ever. Equifax wouldnt say whether it disputes the claims but says, we are very disappointed in the jury verdict and are exploring our options. Experts say equifax will appeal. Miller hopes this is a wakeup call. It can really affect your credit and your scores and your life. Reporter if thats not a wakeup call, this should be.

Pope francis is home at the vatican tonight back from brazil where 3 million flocked to see him on world youth day. On the flight back a relaxed pontiff made global headlines with humble remarks, reaching out to gay catholics the way no pope has ever done before. Abcs dan harris has the story. Reporter after being greeted like a rock star in brazil, preaching to millions on copacabana beach, this new pope who had gone to Great Lengths to project simplicity and openness gave a remarkable press conference on the flight back to rome. Such a striking difference from his often timid predecessor who only took preselected questions from the press. Pope francis laughing and joking with reporters. Speaking off the cuff for 80 minutes. Heres the moment that is getting so much attention, the pope saying, quote, if someone is gay and he searchs for the lord and has good will, who am i to judge . Compare that to Pope Benedict who called gays objectively disordered or Pope John Paul ii who called homosexual acts against natural law. While Pope Franciss comments are making global waves tonight, its important to note the pope said nothing to suggest acceptance of gay sex or any other change in church policy. The pope also made unusually warm overtures today to divorced people who he said should receive the sacraments and women who he said are more important than bishops and priests. He also said, quote, the door is closed to women becoming priests. As with his comments on gays what we saw today was a shift in style, not substance but when you are a pope, style can be very consequential the question is so powerful. Who am i to judge from a pope. Exactly. You dont often hear comments like that. Dan, thanks very much. What looks like the heist of the century. 136 million in diamonds, watches, jewels gone in 60 seconds. It happened in broad daylight at one of the worlds most glamorous hotels. Tonight investigators are scrambling to figure out who did it and whether it was an inside job. Abcs lama hasan is at the scene of the crime tonight in cannes, france. Reporter theyre calling it frances biggest and most brazen robbery. 136 million worth of rings, earrings, and pendants swiped in just a few minutes. It happened here at the luxurious Carlton Intercontinental Hotel in cannes, the same place where hitchcock set his 1955 thiller, to catch a thief. I havent got a decent watch. Steal one. Reporter the jewelry heist happened here but it wasnt a smash and grab. The robber walked right through those glass doors, and once inside the robber quickly corralled the three unarmed security guards at gunpoint, snatched the jewelry and escaped, spilling some along the way. Investigators think the robber may have had an accomplice or perhaps a member of the pink panther gang, known for brazen thefts around the world. Three members have escaped from prison in the last two months. Larry lawton was a professional jewelry thief for years, did 12 years in prison for it and is now an author. My feeling is that it was an inside job. Theres just too many things that went too perfectly. Reporter once these small rocks are broken up and sold on the black market, they become difficult to trace, making diamonds a thiefs best friend. I would be surprised if they have the diamonds in their possession for more than 24 hours. Lama hasan, abc news, cannes. They may already be gone. Still ahead on world news.
