Emergency shelters packed with over 12,000 people now homeless and that number expected to grow. Even as waters recede, major roads still shut down. And that includes interstate 10, which is still shut down in spots. A sad statistic is that with all these homes and businesses flooded, less than 20 of them have flood insurance. The volunteer effort has been remarkable. Seems like anybody with a boat has come in to help. So many volunteer boats that theyre calling it the cajun navy. The volunteer cajun navy, you got that right, thank you. The weather system now on the move and northeast facing Severe Weather threats today and, ginger, you have more on that.

Reporter david, first, thgs the first time ive seen a candidate use the word extreme in an effort to provide a more moderate position, more moderate than his muslim ban, but no, there were precious few details about what questions would be asked. American values, but, david, theres also no detail about what would happen or what would prevent a potential terrorist from simply lying on that questionnaire. And Bigger Picture here, jon, as you know obviously this was an attempt at a major reset for donald trump after a rough week, trumps comments about Second Amendment people and what they could do among other things. Weve seen these resets before. Will this one stick . Reporter the republicans i spoke to were thrilled to see him stick to the script here. Nobodys predicting it will last, but, david, the problem Football Team thats been down by a couple of touchdowns because theyve thrown interceptions, fumbles.

I believe the video will provide a lot of context as to whats going on. Reporter however, the Wisconsin Department of justice now holding up the release of that video saying they are working expeditiously but are not prepared to release any of the Video Evidence at this time. I think it would be a measure of good faith to release the video because it would clearly show what happened and thats whats allowing a lot of things to fester. To violent protestors, businesses torched, 31 arrested, two teens hit by bullets in the chaos. Gunfire, shots fired. Reporter 11 officers wounded as bricks were thrown by protesters. This is the police. Leave the area reporter for smiths family and the community here, Unanswered Questions and a lot of pain. And the curfew just lifted here just a short time ago. You can see Police Taking no chances overnight putting up this fen a people here thankful for a peaceful night. David. All right, lets hope for continued calm there, eva, thanks very much. We turn now to the olympics this morning and team usas Allyson Felix sprinting into the record books becoming the most decorated u. S. Womens track and field star of all time. But everybody is talking about this. Missing gold after that dive, lets get right to t. J. At the olympics desk. How could this be . Yeah, we saw a brandnew olympic sport last night that combines two sports, track and yes, this track dive we saw last night made for one of the most dramatic moments we have seen at these olympics. The other dramatic moment we saw yesterday, simone biles almost fell off the balance beam but she still ended up on the medal stand. A photo finish in rio. Heres Allyson Felix. Reporter in the womens 400meter, the favorite, american Allyson Felix, in her fourth and likely final olympics, ran a rousing race with a heartstopping finish. Felix alongside reporter felix came behind and had gold within her grasp. Here comes the finish line. Reporter the spint ended with a photo finish. A dive by miller for the line. Reporter the bahamas Shaunae Miller diving her way across the line for gold, edging out felix by. 7 seconds. These two titans battling and it came down to the dive. Reporter that dive got swift the team usa star had to settle for silver but earning her seventh olympic medal. The 30yearold is the most decorated female track athlete in u. S. History. A tough night on the balance beam for american simone biles who was aiming for her fourth gold. Another one right here. Reporter off to a brilliant start but then this. Oh, boy. Reporter the wobble seen around the world, and just like that, the gold medal was out of reach. Biles earned bronze. Three in a row. Reporter striking silver teammate Laurie Hernandez with a near flawless showing. Wow. Reporter earlier biles posted this throwback photo of the two future olympic medalists on instagram. A beaming biles congratulated her teammate with a huge hug. The rain has to be a concern, too, for the hurdlers. Reporter other big drama of the night outside the arena. Mother nature striking the olympics on monday. Delaying the evening events as wildfires burned just ten miles from rios field hockey arena. Because of the wind you see divers falling off the board. Reporter and strong winds plagued sailing and mens diving. As far as that dive on the track goes, its perfectly legal. You have to remember, guys, not just what some part of the body crosses first, it has to be the torso. Thats why you see sprinters do that to get across the finish line but its perfectly legal. Too bad the american missed out. As you know, people wondering about that. Thank you, t. J. Joining us with more of the nights biggest events, olympic gold medallist Dominique Dawes is back with us. Lets start with simone first. A rare misstep on the beam but still managed to be on the podium. You know, her routines are pretty difficult to do and thats why she was able to get on the podium with nearly a fall on the balance beam. That was a huge deduction but as you can see, at the end of the day she doesnt care that she shes more concerned about the fact that she made that mistake because that wasnt part of her game plan. It was wonderful to see her hug laurie and shes so, you know, grateful for winning the bronze and grateful for her teammate being there and shes going to have another chance tonight. They are truly teammates and competing versus aly, the olympic reigning champion on this event, the floor exercise so theyll be neck and neck till the finish. Love to see that camaraderie, how genuine it is. I love it. Lets talk about the dive. I know its not your sport. I know. T. J. Said it combined two sports, diving and track and field like that and people thought, that cant be true, but its legal. Shaunae miller knows that this is her olympic moment and if she feels as if shes running out of gas at the end and she needs to dive across that finish line, thats what you do. I love the sport of track and field because at the end of the day you have a stop watch. Theres no one judging, but theres a stop watch and she knew that that was going to be her best chance to get a gold medal and beat Allyson Felix. By any means necessary. I am. Very excited about that. Youll be fair . Im going to be very fair. Impartial. Someone might be paying me under the table. Well see. Jesse cannot be bought off. Hes going to tell us about the medal count now. Although, robin, dominique was deducting people early last week at the beginning of the gma games so ive got some cash today. Team usa continues its reign atop the olympic medal count leaderboard. 26 gold medals right now. 75 total medals followed by china, great britain, russia and japan. But now ive got to show you the photo that has gone vira check this out. Thats usain bolt. He is about to cross the finish line pulling away as he wins the mens 100meter dash and the worlds fastest man so far ahead he had time for this beaming smile, look at that, smiling all the way to the records books, all the way to the bank. Like the road runner and, beep, beep, sticks his tongue out and takes off. Its good to be usain bolt right now. David . I love that. The running and then take the shot, take the shot. All right.

Steve osunsami sat down with her and her parents and joins us now from tennessee. Steve, good morning. Reporter good morning, to you, david. It is now a full week after this accident and one of the three children hurt is still hospitalized here. The family speaking out this morning, has a long road to recovery. Kayla reynolds is just ten years old and shes telling us this morning that shes lucky shes alive after falling nearly 40 feet from the cabin of this ferris wheel at the greene just really scared. Reporter in an view only on gma, she shows us the baby blue cast thats now protecting her broken arm. Falling on the ground, my arm saved me.

Reporter after their orange ferris wheel basket got caught on another while the ride was turning. I was really worried about briely because people said wasnt breathing. Reporter their mom and dad were right there watching, horrified. And we both took off running towards the ferris wheel, towards the operator, and were yelling, stop, stop now. Shes like trying to reach and grab stuff to hold onto. Briely reynolds is still in rough shape. Tubes and swelling, and she just didnt look like my child at all. Reporter doctors say she suffered a traumatic brain injury. Her family is sharing these pictures from her hospital bedside. When she hit, her eyes rolled back in her head. It was it was tough. Absolutely. Yeah, yeah. Worst thing ive ever seen in my life. And i couldnt do anything. Everybody is like, dont touch her, dont touch her. Thats my baby. Reporter authorities now say what happened was an accident, and safety inspectors are blaming mechanical failure. But when we got a close look inside the orange cabin we lap restraints, and inspectors say those safety features are not required. This is the second accident in recent years tied to the company that runs the ferris wheel. Several people were hurt in raleigh when a ride called the vortex started spinning when people were getting off. Family attractions says its pulling for the girls in tennessee. By no means do we take this lightly as our main concern is the safety of the families who visit our midway each week. Cant believe this happened to their children. Im shocked. Youre going to the fair, youre thinking its safe. You are expecting there to be certain standards, thinking youre putting your child on something that theyre going co come right off of. And it can happen to anybody. Thats the scary part about it. Reporter friends have set up a go fund me account to help the family with medical expenses and time away from work.

A guy pulled out his gun. He cocked it, put it to my forehead and said get down. I put my hands up, i was like whatever. Reporter none of the swimmers were injured but lochte says the men took all of their money. Citing lochte, the ioc initially denying that any robbery had occurred, only reversing course when it says lochte later changed his story. I wonder if you can explain to us what happened.

Because for every tornado. Theres a twister. For every crash. An even bigger collision. And for every tailspin. Well, tailspins. State farm understands that getting the most out of life doesnt just mean being there when things go wrong. Its about being here. In all of lifes moments. . This is how you say its going to be okay to someone who just lost everything. That, yes, well find you somewhere to stay and yes, your children will have breakfast. Every 8 minutes the red cross responds this promise. Help us keep it. Hold on to that. I know, right. Moving. Welcome back. Time for the big board. Our team of insiders standing by for more on top stories. Espn broadcaster and olympic gold medallist Jessica Mendoza back here at the table. Always great to have you, well throw many questions at you. Bring it. Pokemon go, the new lawsuit, one couple says theyve had enough. Theyre now suing claiming the app placed pokestops or hot spots near private property without the consent of the owners. Abc news correspondent becky worley joining us. Come on. This is getting annoying for people who look out their front windows and see people playing pokemon go. Real world problems, pokemon go, as you mentioned, places pokestops in all sorts of locations and, david, the problem, they aggregate some of those making them a really big draw rubbing a couple from st. Clair shores, michigan the wrong way and have the unfortunate luck living across a pokegym. They thought it was a local park but no, its a location with at least seven pokemon stops. The couple say hundreds of people come each day trampling their flowers, looking in their windows, it kind of sounds like a horror show. They allege that theyve submitted requests via the website to get the pokestops removed but only received this lawsuit theyre going after some big names, niantic, the app developer, nintendo and the Pokemon Company and wont pokemon go to pokemon stop in their neighborhood. Yes, but there have been a lot of complaints all across the country here, becky. Yeah, we saw Class Action Lawsuit in new jersey, trespassing on private property and that one again, other examples. Pokemon go played in inappropriate places, the holocaust museum, a cemetery in alabama but in this case whats interesting theyre not just asking the app to stop, theyre looking for monetary gains. And heres why, Silicon Valley companies are so fast at building a user base, i mean pokemon go has nearly as many active users as twitter. I know. But you know what, Silicon Valley companies stink at, dealing with customer complaints. So we think this will get them moving now that money is on the table. We have not heard the last of it, my friend. Thank you. Now to olympic gold coming under fire for her placing for not placing her heart her hand over her heart during the national anthem. Then she was criticized when she didnt join a standing ovation for her teammates. Jessica mendoza, youre here. You have been an olympian and won a gold medal, a silver medal with the soft ball team. What do you make of all this . I mean im not surprised of the backlash because i feel thats the day and age we live in where twitter and social media and you can find the smallest things. Is it okay . Absolutely not. I mean you think about competing and everything you go through to win that gold medal and you have so much pride for your country but i remember them going through this is what im surprised about. I remember as an olympian 04 and 08 talking about the etiquette of being on the medal stand and engraining into us how to stand, how to hold the flag in moments when you want to grab it after you win. We had this conversation, and who told you how to do it . Our staff and it was always repeated and just make sure that when you grab the flag you hold stand this is how you stand. I think thats important for the younger athletes. Think about it competing, the last thing thats going to be on their mind is the perfect way. The emotions theyre feeling. You helped break a barrier with Major League Baseball and felt the wrath of twitter too. What do you have to say to gabby . The hardest thing no matter how confident you are and look at what a kick butt athlete it is, it affects you. Without even being in her shoes in particular, i know that as much as i didnt want to read, its people say and backlash and everything shes faced no way that those words didnt affect her especially when she was competing and thats the part that really upsets me. You handled it very well and youre good at what you do and youve earned it. Its good advice for gabby too. It does hurt. Some people tweeting. They should be aware of that. Big news for Pumpkin Spice latte . Yeah. All right, mcdonalds announcing it will start serving its version of the drink on appears the fast food giant will beat starbucks to the punch and last year it was released i think september 8th or so but is it too much too soon .

Dad . What will you say . Dont wait. Talk to your childs doctor today. We welcome you back t gma. Gold medal swimmer Simone Manuel joining us live just ahead. We cant wait for that. First weve got a health alert for pregnant women about tylenol. Its a new study that suggests women who take it could increase the risks their babies develop behavioral problems. Our chief Womens Health so tell us more about this. Heres the study right here. Comes out of a very well respected peer review journal. Were talking about one of the most commonly used medications acetaminophen thats used in pregnancy and this study found women who took it while they were pregnant went on to have children who were at increased risk for problems with conduct, hyperactivity and emotional issues. Now, issues and flaws and limitations with this study. There is no data about why these women pregnancy. Theres a thinking that the reason that caused them to need to take the medication could be implicated here. No data on how much they took, the dose or for how long, so more research definitely needed. Yeah, because some doctors are saying they need a little bit more on that. So why would a pregnant woman take this . Look, i think we have to remember that in obstetrics we have two patients here, a mother and a baby and so there can be maternal and fetal anything from a headache to a muscle ache to a kidney stone so theres a spectrum there. Fever, we know if the mother gets a fever, that is not good for a developing baby, so that could be a fetal reason, and then injury and surgery. That happens to pregnant women just like it happens to nonpregnant women so you have to weigh those. Youve delivered, what, Something Like 1500 babies so you know of what you speak. So what do you recommend to your patients if theyre having issues . This is so important. Yesterday i was in touch w our National Society and they came out very strongly against this study right now saying that this study and others in the past show no clear evidence that provides a direct relationship between acetaminophen and any behavioral problems. We say it over and over again on abc because its so important. Association does not equal causation. We need to have the science and the biology to show a cause and effect before we make a sweeping recommendation and right now women should not be afraid to take this if they really need it. They can do if theyre having certain issues . You know, thats the therapeutic dilemma and we try to avoid aspirin, nonsteroidal, opioids have their issues so talk to your midwife or obstetrician. This is not the last well hear of it. Or talk to you because dr. Ashton will take your questions on twitter and facebook throughout the morning. We appreciate it. You bet. Coming up, gold medal swimmer, Simone Manuel, is joining us live, opening up about her big victory. Show us that bling. Shes got to get ready to go back to school just like us. Come. Come on back. In here. Yep, coming. Oh wow, what kind of underwear are those . Theyre breathable underwear from fruit of the loom. [gasp] what are those . Guys. Theyre breathable underwear from fruit of the loom.

Ryan, for you, you were nine years old when Michael Phelps was winning gold medals in athens and you got to get up on that podium with him and share that final moment with him. Is he a peer now or still an idol . Hes still an idol. Id be lying if i said there wasnt more adrenaline on that last relay and that was because of him. You wanted him to go out in style. Sure. Like you said, he started winning gold medals in 2004 and i was nine at the time and remember watching him in athens. I was one of the little kids jumping up and down on my couch rooting him on so to be a part of that was special for me. Simone, you were swimming for your teammates, they used to take you to all those meets. Youre swimming for yourself, for your country but also for your community in a great way. Did you feel that because of the historical nature of what you were doing, did you also feel like you were carrying that weight of the black community into the pool with you . Yes, sometimes, i mean just with how im swimming and hopefully bringing some awareness to the sport to diversify it but i also swim for myself so theres two sides to the coin. Pressure on myself but i do realize that it is a huge deal for swimming and hopefully moving forward. Are you hopeful of the ones that the diversity coming up behind you .

I said, you should ask me if i want to borrow some money. And, yes, i do. I thought that was a fake post. Thats me and ive fallen on hard times. Until this book clears i needed some loot. Help a sister out. I cannot find the one from chris. Chris tweeted a question . He said something you had done a movie, youve done comedy. Yeah. So next thing is a fragrance, what would you name it . Dont ask me that and im supposed to not get in trouble . Thats true. Thats true. Flower like a moout [mute] will willow. Okay, so close. You did this to yourself, robin. We were right there. Its a flower. Amy schumer, ladies and gentlemen. The morning version of amy schumer. Im telling you, and can i just say heartfelt. The way you talk about your day and your family and sister, it really shows coming from you it means a lot. Im pulling for you. The girl with the lower back tattoo, it is out now, run and get it. Amy schumer, i love you. So we wanted to say a very good morning to our crowd. Im fanning will. Where are you from . Charlotte. Charlotte, north carolina, hes 14 and hes running his mom ragged this morning. He wants to see the whole city. Youre about to. The storms dont come till later this afternoon. Look at this video of a fire whirl. This is in oregon. This happens in some of these wildfires where that cold air meets the warmth and the fire and just twirls right up. Yes, theyre dangerous but look at the red flag warnings still in place, excessive heat warnings that go all the way to the mexican border. Thats the big picture. Im still going to fan you. All that weather brought to you by fruit of the loom and exciting weve got a new edition of our Digital Series food forecast. Youre about to see this video, the second part of napa valley wine and im walking through with andy eriksson, the owner there of a dry farm. That means zero irrigation. So hes beaten the drought no matter what even though most has been south and east of them. Food forecast is streaming now on abcnews. Com or the abc news app on your smartphone tablet or connected devices so thats hot but you know what else is hot, mara schiavocampo. And this story were going to have a way to help you handle all this heat, shorts at the office. Come on. One of the trendiest looks on the runway. Can it work, mara . Can work. The key is that you have to take your cues from the office place. Creative industries tend to have a little bit more flexibility but you can beat the heat and stay professional. You also have to make sure that your shorts are workplace friendly. Ah, shorts. Theyre the summertime staple. Weve seen celebs rock them on the red carpet but can you wear them to work . Lori bergamotto, style director at Good Housekeeping magazine says yes. Can you really wear shorts to the office . You absolutely can wear shorts to the office. For the most part the workplace is really evolving and were seeing this shift towards a more casual environment. To show us how to pull off the look, we hit up their fashion closet. First up, sophie in a pleated striped skort. Builtin shorts as you see in the pleats. This is a really good look for someone who has a body type like sophie. Sophie is not particularly shes not particularly tall either and shes curvy. You want to create balance and proportion and a really good way to do that is with an aline silhouette. Are there any rules for the fabric . Choose a fabric thats more synthetic and has structure to it. Nothing thats transparent. Anything thats too flimsy in nature is going to look wrinkled and going to look less professional. Next up, sara in a pair of silk tie front shorts. If youre petite like sara is, youre looking for something that has a little tiny bit more volume. Are there any rules to what kinds of shorts will work . A good rule of thumb is to actually follow your thumbs if you will. Her longest finger is in line with the hem length of the short. If its any shorter than that, you probably dont want to wear them to work. And finally, chisom rocking a more formal short suit. Shes in our tall category. Think about the equation of how much skin youre baring. So she can show a little bit more skin on her legs. How do you make sure youre elevating shorts so theyre professional enough . You want to make sure youre marrying them with statement pieces that really feel like theyre ready for the workplace. The studded earrings, top handle bag and a nice work watch that has some gravity to it. Really let the shorts stay. Now, what shoes you wear with your shorts are also going to be really important. Make sure that the heel isnt too high youre headed to the club and not the office. Never a good thing. Opt for a chunkier heel instead of a stiletto. Keeps it a little more conservative. Im kind of a skirt girl but might get me here, lori bergamotto. A skort. Yes, a skort. The style director of Good Housekeeping here. These are for the office . They really are. We dressed mara. Doesnt she look beautiful . You did a great job. We kept her in a balance and wanted balance and showing a little leg and keep everything covered up. Not just for women. We have a special model coming in. Im loving this look. Oh, wow. Our favorite men. How about that on jesse. This is all from j. Crew. What we did with jesse is its really the same rules. Want to make sure youre not showing more than two to three inches on the knee. You can see his knee got a nice tight shot. This would not be okay. Not too much. We gave him a little texture with the shirt, a pop of color with theoc elevated it with a summer weight suit jacket. Any rules for manscaping if you show all this leg . Just be natural. I appreciate this. I appreciate it too. I think youre doing a good job. I came au naturel. Its all about just the fabric that youre looking for in a short, making sure theres structure and not too short. You dont want to look like youre a von trapp family singer or going to hogwarts. I got to say i like the look. I think that this should be the bermuda at the olympics. It could be. On a day like this shorts works for everyone.
