Good morning, everyone, welcome to Newsround this | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
Tuesday morning with me, Ayshah. | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
First, around 200,000 people living close to America's tallest dam have | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
been told it's not safe for them to return home yet. | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
The area around the Oroville Dam was evacuated after a hole | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
The Oroville Dam is in northern California. | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
It's the tallest in America, at 230 metres, which is about the same | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
as 15 double decker buses stacked on top of each other. | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
A dam is a barrier that's built to hold back water. | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
It can be used to generate electricity, supply homes, | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
The Oroville Dam works by collecting rain water in a reservoir or a lake. | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
But there's been heavy rain and snow recently, | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
When something like this happens, a spillway, | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
which looks a bit like a huge water slide, is used | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
to release some of the water in a controlled way. | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
But the heavy rain has damaged the spillway. | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
There were worries it could have caused a huge wall of water to fall | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
into the river below and flood the area. | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
Thousands of people were ordered to leave their homes. | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
They've now been told they can't return home yet. | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
Getting those people home is important to me. I want that to | :01:28. | :01:36. | |
happen as soon as possible. But I have to be able to sleep at night | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
knowing that they are back in that area. | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
Teams have been working to fix the problem. | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
After draining some of the water, bags of rocks | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
For now, the water levels in the lake have gone down | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
but more rain is expected in the area this week. | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
It's no fun being left out of your team, is it? | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
The Manchester City striker was put on the bench again last night | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
to make way for the new kid on the block, Gabriel Jesus. | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
Less than 15 minutes in, he got injured, giving | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
But it was Raheem Sterling who scored first! | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
It came instead on the far post to Raheem Sterling, and it is in both | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
him. A second goal. In the second half, Aguero | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
appeared to put one in, only for it to be given | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
as an own goal to Either way, a 2-0 win for City | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
