At the beginning of a rough weekend weatherwise for millions of americans, look at this, hail in kansas, and as if this were not unpleasant enough, it was accompanied by 60mileanhour winds. Wow. And check out this guy going nowhere fast. That is alex ball of burbank, illinois, poor soul realizing that a boat probably would have been a lot more practical. Absolutely true, and were going to begin with the latest on the extreme weather and linzie janis is on the story. Good morning, dan. Heavy rain triggered flash flooding across the midwest and further south into kentucky and West Virginia leaving entire towns underwater. One part of indiana getting nearly 11 inches of rain in just 24 hours. Oh, my god. Reporter overnight lightning and heavy rains brought floods to kentucky where High School Football games were postponed. Fields like this one submerged. Holy cow. Reporter in West Virginia, motorists battled floods of their own. Waters turning streets into rivers. Downpours in an already saturated area making this street almost impassable. Residents wading through muddy waters. Flooding also plaguing the midwest. In indiana, a mobile Home Community swallowed by knee high waters. Entire streets turned into lakes and in illinois, waist high water closing streets and flooding neighborhoods. Residents dealing with water in their homes and in their cars. It was giant hail wreaking havoc in kansas as this major storm brought 60mileperhour winds. And in colorado, drivers slowly making their way down flooded streets. Storm drains at capacity as all that water has nowhere to go. And there is more rain coming. These storms now headed north to the dakotas and to minnesota. More unpleasantness on this weekend. Thank you very much, linzie. Appreciate it. Thanks. And tracking the story is meteorologist Jason Nicholas from our abc station wews, good morning, jason. Great to have you here. Hey, paula, great to be here and good morning to you. We had the flooding rains yesterday. The good news is those areas that were hit so hard yesterday, indiana into portions of Eastern Kentucky and West Virginia, a break today, however, no break as we head farther out west, the northern plains, the northern rockies, 2 to 3 inches of rain possible today. Severe weather also possible. Check it out here in the bullseye, were talking about the dakotas, also into western sections of minnesota, the chances are there for strong winds, some hail, even an isolated tornado. And, hey, were in the middle of our tropical season across the atlantic. You wouldnt know it. Only two named storms. This here could be number three, cristobal. Take a look at our forecast models on this. They do diverge just a bit, but its still early in the game but nonetheless its worth watching heading into tomorrow and into early next week all the way from the outer banks to the florida keys. Nations weather in a few. Dan. Worth watching, indeed. Could be trouble brewing. Thank you. Now to the urgent fears of a handful of American Families this morning. Their loved ones being held hostage by isis. The Jihadist Group that beheaded james foley. With foleys brother now saying the white house didnt do enough to save him, the administration is hinting it may now expand the fight against isis, and abcs jon karl is with the president on Marthas Vineyard this morning. Jon, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, dan, the white house is now calling the killing of james foley a terrorist attack on the United States as the president is weighing options to step up the fight against isis. U. S. Warplanes hit isis targets near iraqs mosul dam friday even as the terrorists who executed jim foley are threatening to kill more american hostages in retaliation. U. S. Officials tell abc news the group is holding at least three americans including steven sotloff, who isis threatened to kill next in the video it posted earlier this week. In an exclusive interview with katie couric for yahoo news, foleys siblings talk about the last hatefilled email the family received from his captors just 11 days ago saying today our swords are unsheathed towards you, government and citizens alike, and we will not stop until we quench our thirst for your blood. I dont even understand where that type of hate comes from. Reporter foleys brother michael said the u. S. Did not do enough. The United States could have done more on behalf of the western and american hostages over there and still dealt with the broader worldwide issues. I can assure you that we have done everything that we can possibly do to try to bring home our hostages. Tragically we werent able to rescue mr. Foley, but were going to keep trying for all of our hostages. Reporter the one thing the the United States government will do not, however, is pay ransom. The u. S. Government stays absolutely committed to the notion we will not provide funding to terrorist organizations. Reporter european governments, in contrast, have paid an estimated 165 million to terrorist groups since 2008. Well, all u. S. Air strikes so far and there have been 93 of them over the past two weeks have been on isis targets in iraq. The president is now considering hitting isis targets in syria, as well. As one of his top advisers said, paula, were not going to be restricted by borders. All right, jon karl with the president today, thank you very much, jon. So what does this mean here at home . An urgent bulletin has gone out to Police Forces across the country to be on alert for possible isis attacks. Abcs senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas joining us from washington. And, pierre, has a legitimate threat been made . Reporter good morning, paula. No specific threat has been identified, but what theyre concerned about is that the likelihood that isis has sympathizers here in the u. S. , socalled lone wolves. More than 100 americans have gone to join forces with radicals in iraq and syria. My sources believe that this proves theres clearly a pool of people here in the u. S. Who identify with these foreign fighters, and that could be dangerous. You mentioned those lone wolves, and what is the biggest concern about that group . Reporter these are people the government may not have identified who could just be watching the events unfold from iraq and not be officially tied to isis at all. They could come out of nowhere. Paula. All right, Pierre Thomas, thank you for that report this morning. Such a scary threat. A lot of other news developing overnight and for that, as always, we turn to mr. Ron claiborne. Good morning, sir. Good morning to you, mr. Dan harris. Paula faris and sara haines, good morning, everyone. We start with an overnighting shooting in a concert in san francisco, california. Shots fired backstage at the shoreline amphitheater where the rapper wiz khalifa was performing. One person was hit multiple times and taken to a nearby hospital. People are looking for any witnesses who may have more information about that. They believe the suspect is a male in his early 20s and was dressed in all black. And in ferguson, missouri, a grand jury has been selected to look into the killing of michael brown. 3 members 3 of the 12 members of that grand jury are black. The others are white. By gender, seven men, five women. The st. Louis county prosecutor Bob Mcculloch expects it to take the grand jury several weeks, he says, to decide whether to file criminal charges criminal charges against officer Darren Wilson who allegedly shot and killed brown. And, meanwhile, there were peaceful protests friday night. No arrests made there in ferguson. And an explosion rocks an ohio town. Fire and smoke filling the air in the village of evendale, thats outside of cincinnati, where a Grain Elevator exploded on friday. The loud boom coming from a facility owned by a global food company. No one was injured in that explosion. The cause is under investigation. And now overseas, where tensions are rising between russia and ukraine, again. More than 260 russian humanitarian trucks are now headed back home to russia. This comes after ukraine says the trucks crossed the border into ukraine without permission from the ukrainians. Suspecting that they could be used by russia to smuggle supplies for rebel fighters. The u. S. And nato are condemning the trucks entering ukraine. And police in West Virginia say a routine highway accident turned into a scary discovery. Guns and ammunition, even ieds as well as several chickens were found in this suv after it crashed. The i know, odd. Huh . Yeah. The driver, 21yearold seth grimm, lost control when this dog attempted to jump out of the window. Grimm allegedly made antigovernment remarks on the scene. Hes been arraigned, and bail was set at 25,000. This is something you dont find in your backyard every day. Its a piece of a commercial airplane that landed in the yard of a long island home. The piece of sheet metal is labeled a380, which means an airbus 380, a0380, and has printed instructions for maintenance on a wing strut. The faa is looking into that matter. And finally, a big birthday for a fluffy little panda. Bao bao, the baby bao bao means baby or darling in chinese, aisle told. Ah. At the Smithsonians National zoo celebrating her first birthday. Caretakers have tracked her growth over the past year from a scrawny 4. 5 ounces as a cub, now a playful 40pound bear and growing. Giant pandas are endangered. Less than 2,000 remain. Theres a big event happening later. Its called lucky draw where bao bao will select among various items that she chooses to foretell something about her future. Stay tuned for that. Thank you, bao bao. You said that means darling. Right . Thats what we call ron. Thats rons new name. Bao bao. Bao bao. All right. Im going to change subjects now. We have an extraordinary and perhaps for many of you infuriating piece of video to show you this morning. Here it is. A lawabiding mom pulled over by police and cuffed with four little kids in the car. Guns drawn. Children scared out of their minds. And it was all mistake apparently so why no apologies . Abcs Michelle Franzen is on the story. Michelle, good morning. Reporter well, good morning, dan. Even though Police Called the harrowing incident a big mistake, officers say their actions were justified given they were following up on reports a driver was waving a gun outside a window on a highway, and that is where this troubling mistake involving the texas mom began. Driver, let me see your hands. Everybody stick their hands out the window. Reporter this shocking dash cam video shows a young mother being pulled over at gunpoint. Kametra barbara was driving four children under the age of 10 home when she was suddenly stopped by police. What is wrong . Ill tell you in a minute. Get in the car. My kids. Theyre 6 and 8 and 10, 9. What are we doing . Reporter barbara gets out of the car. Moments after being handcuffed, a terrified 6yearold exits the vehicle with his hands above his head. Gun down. Gun down. Come on back here, son. Come on back here. Youre all right. Makes me angry all over again. Reporter police say that they were responding to a call that a motorist was waving a gun out the drivers side window. It is going to be a beige or tancolored toyota occupied by four black males. We got a complaint of a vehicle matching your description and your license plate pointing a gun out the window. Reporter the big problem, the cars descriptions dont match. I drive a Nissan Maxima that is burgundy red. Reporter police soon realized they had the wrong car. Do they look young to you . They do to me. Reporter and tried to calm the terrified kids down. No, im scared. Its okay. No, are we going to jail . No, no one is going to jail. Everyone is fine now. Reporter police say they responded appropriately for what they believe was a dangerous situation. For the nature of the call that a weapon was involved, yes. Reporter barbara says she understands they were making quick decisions, but shes still upset. Make sure that you have all the facts because it doesnt you cant just say, okay, im sorry and then im over it. That understanding mom, of course, she says she and her kids are still not over it and watching the video every time, she says, makes her angry and upset all over again. Understandably. I can imagine. Its infuriating to watch the kids with their hands up. Really tough to watch. And screaming. Very troubling. Thanks, michelle. Thank you, michelle. Now we have a new warning for parents this morning after we saw this shocking video out of texas. It shows a child being rescued from a car on a steamy houston day. The mom was in a store shopping. Now, we have heard about several of these cases this summer and were so happy to have Mariana Atencio from our Sister Network fusion on the story this morning. Good morning. Its a pleasure to be with you. Parents nowadays have so much going on, so many distractions, errands, this morning the case out of houston should serve as a reminder to moms and dads, thank god this baby is all right, but it only takes a few minutes for the summer heat to turn deadly. Overnight this boy crying found locked in a car in a houston mall parking lot. Concerned security guards rushing to help the infant, pushing the slightly open window down just enough to unlock the suv door. His mom later came out of this store. She is seen begging for her son. This morning shes behind bars charged with child abandonment. She has not yet entered a plea. This incident occurring just a day after a new twist in the connecticut hot car death of 15monthold benjamin setiz. Come to mommy. Reporter his death now ruled a homicide. Authorities from the medical Examiners Office confirming to abc news the baby boy suffered hyperthermia caused by environmental exposure. Ben was an angel. He honestly laughed every day, smiled every day. He was just a joy in our life. Reporter the toddlers dad kyle was supposed to drop him off at day care but forgot, instead leaving his son inside a sweltering car, even reportedly driving back to the day care to pick up his son before discovering his body. No charges have been filed against mr. Seitz. Homicide just means the death of one person at the hands of another. Thats not always a crime, and if the authorities here believe this was just a horrible mistake, he may not be charged. Reporter benjamins mom lindsay now fighting to warn other parents. Were definitely not going to give up, even if its something as simple as being there for other parents. Reporter and lindsays story can really happen to anyone. Paula, according to a study by safekids. Org, 14 of parents, 14 have admitted to accidentally leaving their kids unattended in a hot car. And thats just those who have admitted it. You know, parents, we get so distracted and think this will never happen to us. A great piece of advice someone gave me once, put something in the backseat that you know you have to retrieve whether its your wallet, your purse, a flip phone just to make sure that baby is safe. Makes a lot of sense. Yes. Thank you for that piece of advice. The more we keep talking about this, the more awareness well raise. Great story and great to have you with us this weekend. We should say that mariana is on every night on our Sister Network fusion. Its a joint venture of abc and univisions, which she tells me is correctly pronounced univision. Very good. Very good. I love to hear that. Way to go. Yeah. Ill be here speaking in spanish all weekend. Check your cable listings for more. [ speaking a Foreign Language ] moving on now. [ speaking a Foreign Language ] there is an old expression, when elephants fight, its the grass that suffers, but this morning some corporate behemoths are doing battle and us little guys were the grass in this analogy are actually benefiting. Your wireless bill may be going down, and abcs Rebecca Jarvis explains. Reporter call them a casualty of the fierce competition for your mobile phone business. Welcome to the framily, dad. Ive been hearing good things about sprint network. Reporter sprint ditching the socalled framily plan and now in place of that talking hamster. No dropped calls. Better call quality. Its fast, right . Reporter launching a price war to lure customers away from rivals. For 60 a month sprint unveiling unlimited talk, text and data. Thats 20 bucks cheaper than the same plan at tmobile, plus this extra sweetener from sprint, dump the competition and get up to 350 back. All the carriers are enemies. Theyre all competitors and theyre doing everything they can to lock up subscribers. Reporter tmobile fighting back with its own new offer. Get a friend to ditch sprint, verizon or at t, and you both get unlimited lte data for a year for free. So much for at ts best ever family pricing. Youre not making phone calls anymore. Youre sending imessages and youre checking facebook. Youre streaming video and that eats up a lot of data, so people are trying to find the best data plan and the best value. Reporter the best news about this battle for your business, the winner may actually be you. If you live in an area with a good connection from sprint or tmobile, go with whatever is cheaper and youre going to win out. Its unbelievable.

Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. I found answers about fibromyalgia.

Authorities calling her an arsonist claiming that she set fire to the very home where she was employed, apparently upset over the way she was being treated and abcs ryan owens has more. Reporter police say this babysitter got so annoyed with the preteen girls she had been caring for, she set their bedrooms on fire. 57yearold Martha Dreher is charged with arson this morning. Glenn williams says she targeted his daughters. It was definitely a vendetta against the two girls. Reporter the girls were out of town with their dad so no one was hurt. Dreher worked for the family for a couple of months. She denies setting the fire but tells investigators she was tired of dealing with the girls and wanted to quit. And she said that it was horrible, that the girls my oldest had been very disrespectful. Reporter detectives say these surveillance cameras caught her driving up to the empty house in austin, texas, earlier this month, then leaving 20 minutes later. With flames visible from the girls bedroom windows. Hours later, the girls older brother came home. My son adam came in and said, dad, i just went to the kitchen. Theres a lot of smoke. Reporter dreher has pleaded not guilty, and her attorney said she had no reason to lash out at those girls. The thing that we are going to be pushing for in addition to obviously lie detector tests and Everything Else that we can do to prove her innocence is evidence. Reporter meanwhile, Glenn Williams is gutting his historic 90yearold home but repairing that is easy compared to explaining to his daughters that their babysitter is now an accused arsonist.

Tmz reports the reptile took a bite out of one of nickis dancers, which is why you should never dance with snakes while she was performing her hit anaconda. The snake was said to be nonvenomous but the dancer was taken to the hospital as a precaution and no word on whether it, the snake, of course, will be performing in sunday nights show. Plus ive always wanted to do this. Breaking pop news, this just in, another mishap. This one involving iggy azalea.
