Hello, I'm Jenny and this is Newsround, live on CBBC.

First up, to the city of Houston, in America, where tropical storm

Harvey has caused severe flooding and is expected to get worse.

It's hard to imagine that these were once busy motorways.

This is Houston, a big city in the state of Texas in

Since the storms started, they've been hit with twice as much

rain than London gets in a whole year.

It has caused massive flooding and people are struggling to cope.

Rescuers in boats and helicopters have been bringing thousands of

people to safety but many more are still waiting for help.

As soon as we got into Houston, right outside,

side roads were blocked off, it is virtually like a ghost town.

Reservoirs in the area are starting to get through.

Earlier today a dam began to overflow.

Houston has ground to a halt with roads,

It started flooding the neighbourhood.

Yesterday was when it happened and me and my dad and another person

My school's out for a week-and-a-half

We're going to be having to take in some

of our friends that are getting some bad flooding.

Later today, President Trump will visit the state of Texas

and has promised help for the people of Houston and other flooded areas.

But with more heavy rain on the way, forecasters are expecting the

floodwaters to rise, even further as the week goes on.

Next up, Strictly fans, this one is for you.

All the celebs taking part, have now been revealed,

and our Ayshah went to see them strut their stuff

It's that time of year when the glitterball is dusted off.

We're here on the Strictly red carpet.

And it's safe to say that this year's group of Strictly stars can't

It's going to be huge, because people who've

watched me on Top Class or The Dog Ate My Homework

are used to seeing me in a very different way.

We are actually going to do the show.

It's started already, and we have been getting

ready since about ten o'clock this morning.

We are all in our sparkly outfits, even the boys.

I have sequin envy because Jonnie Peacock has got multicoloured

This is not something that I would never normally do.

But I think that's really good for me to challenge myself.

But despite the excitement, everyone seems to be a little

Do you know what I'm really nervous about is doing a dance

I'm quite nervous about the possibility of forgetting

I don't want to just go flat on my face.

Running upstairs in heels, and the fact that the camera is on you...

So if you see me doing that, something's gone wrong.

That's it for the red carpet, but it won't be long till we find

out who the celebs' partners are, and then those twinkletoes

Finally, to the star of this weekend's Notting

It's PC Daniel Graham and his body popping skills.

Yep, he's a real policeman, and this video of him dancing

at the festival has gone viral, with hundreds of thousands

On. Get this, it turns out he was also a contestant on last year's

Britain's Got Talent. That does knotted surprise me.

Newsround's back from 7.40am tomorrow morning.

Don't forget to go online for much more,

including our fantastic quiz of the week.
