princess diana was killed in a car crash in paris as she and her new boyfriend raced to escape paparazzi. mark phillips, who covered that story, reports tonight on diana's legacy. >> reporter: 20 years later, and the diana devotees are back. and her sons, who have managed this commemoration, say it will be the last one. they won't again publicly relive the devastation they felt when at just 15 and 12 years old they had to parade their grief before the world. but even back then, diana's death became more than their tragedy. it became a national psycho- drama with very un-british public displays. >> she touched our hearts in life and death. >> reporter: and it seemed to rattle the monarchy itself, which many felt took too long to respond to the public sorrow. and it cast the future king and diana's ex, prince charles, as the villain. charles, who has become "charles the silent" for this anniversary, for good reason says royal correspondent roya nikkah. >> this could never have been a time charles would be liked and loved by the public. they are reminded once again of how badly wrong that marriage went. >> reporter: diana, the modern, accessible, caring, and yet exasperating royal had become their new brand, and her death seemed to break the bond between the monarchy and the people. it became the story at the time. in some ways, though, her death is proving more difficult for them to handle than her life was. 20 years later, the flowers are gone, and that great flood of shock and grief that had swept britain has long since receded, leaving a kind of sad nostalgia behind. diana's legacy is that she changed the way a nation behaves. >> there is no doubt that diana marks an epoch. >> reporter: royal historian david starkey. >> from the people with the stiff upper lip, we become a nation where there's nary a dry eye and the lip always trembles. this, i think, is very, very different. >> reporter: a difference she never got to see. mark phillips, cbs news, london. >> brennan: in a moment, we'll go back to demarco morgan in houston where flood victims are being blessed by the amazing grace of victoria white. relief agencies are doing all they can to fill

overwhelmed estate's the city's water system. without it, beaumont's baptist hospital had to evacuate all its patients. shelters are packed, and the red cross' chester jourdan says they need more

seeing here is the effect of 26 inches of rain in just 24 hours. and, demarco, rescue operations are continuing tonight. >> morgan: anna werner reporting. anna, thank you. adding to the fear and danger here, explosions at a chemical plant sent a cloud of smoke into the air and more than a dozen sheriff's deputies to the hospital. david begnaud is covering that. >> reporter: it happened at 2:00 a.m. local time, the first of two explosions lit up the night& sky. by morning, a fire was still burning. a mile and a half radius around the chemical plant was evacuated tuesday after company representatives warned local officials their emergency plans had failed. ed gonzalez is the harris county sheriff. >> we believe the smoke is a nontoxic irritant. >> reporter: the company had backup generators. all of them failed. then refrigeration units in three of nine trailers failed. officials warn the highly combustible compounds, known as organic peroxides, were sure to burn as the temperatures rose, although they downplayed the harm. >> no one is in danger based on the fire we expect. >> reporter: arkema executive richard rennard defended the company's response. >> we believe at this point the safest thing to do is to allow the other eight containers, product in those to degrade and burn. >> reporter: we asked the company to provide us with a list of chemicals at the plant. they said they would. we called 11 times today and never got that list. we tried to get in touch with your company yesterday repeatedly and could not get a-- i just have a simple question. regarding the chemical, can you tell us what it is and exactly what it contains. >> yes, it's a liquid organic peroxide. >> reporter: so what is it that makes it worse? >> the concern is when these things degrade, they generate heat. when they generate heat, they can burn. when they burn, you can have an explosion. >> reporter: the occupational safety and hazard administration inspected arkema's crosby facility last year and found 10 serious violations. but experts say it is premature to speculate if they were related to today's explosions. this afternoon, the federal chemical safety board launched an investigation. we still want to know why, didn't the company have a plan to neutralize these chemicals when everything else seemed to fail? demarco, even if the water recedes, the plant which is about five miles behind me, and it is clear, or appears clear to go in, officials say it's not because the situation is too volatile for them to try to stop anything now. >> morgan: david begnaud reporting. david, thank you. as rescue efforts goes on, houston remembering those who were lost. here's mark strassmann. >> reporter: they prayed for each other's safety in downtown houston, a

been his 61st birthday. ray hunt is president of the police union. >> he perished trying to do what he's been doing for 34 years, which is keeping the city safe. that-- i think that says everything about what kind of man sergeant perez was. >> reporter: alexander sung spent his final minutes at his clock store, trying to save his most valuable time pieces. the phone rang. the 64-year-old told his daughter, frantically, "sweetie, i have to call you back." three-year-old jordyn grace was found alive, floating in floodwaters shivering from hypothermia. she clutched the body of her mother, 41-year-old clolet sulcer. she told rescuers, "mama was saying her prayers." but most flooding fatalities here happened in cars. donald and rochelle rogers died together, their truck washed off the road and overturned into a ditch. reuben jordan, a retired legendary high school track coach, was last seen in his toyota tundra. ed emmett is the chief executive in harris county. he says 500,000 vehicles were lost in the storm. >> the deaths occurred in vehicles where people were out driving, and they got into high water. there could still be some people in some vehicles that we haven't
