:10:00. > :10:04.falling in Portland. Folks shovelling it out of this gym. I
:10:05. > :10:09.have been in some bad weather, but to have six inches of rain in a
:10:10. > :10:14.couple of hours, to see how fast this parking lot filled up, is
:10:15. > :10:19.nothing I have ever seen. Pumps still working in Maryland, cleaning

:11:40. > :11:49.another mission that carries on. We will continue air strikes. No
:11:50. > :11:55.timeline given. No timeline, there were several
:11:56. > :11:58.strikes by fighter jets and drones today, aimed at ISIS targets. The
:11:59. > :12:02.President made it clear that these types of air strikes will be carried
:12:03. > :12:12.out with no end in sight. The bottomline, as long as ISIS's
:12:13. > :12:15.militance pose a threat to cities like Irbil, the strikes will be
:12:16. > :12:21.ongoing. It is about protecting the Americans, and very critically
:12:22. > :12:26.tonight, it is about defending these key cities. If Irbil falls, the fear
:12:27. > :12:36.that ISIS will control the north of Iraq, and then next stop will be an
:12:37. > :12:44.assault on Baghdad. Now, the hunt for two young Amish
:12:45. > :12:48.girls who were abducted from their front yard and driven away. It is
:12:49. > :12:54.difficult, because there are no pictures of the girls, because they

:13:36. > :13:38.underwater. Police only have this sketch to work from, because in
:13:39. > :13:44.Amish tradition, being photographed is not allowed. We have no photos to
:13:45. > :13:50.begin with, it is a belief within the Amish community, so we did well
:13:51. > :13:54.to get this sketch. Police are scouring the countryside, watching
:13:55. > :13:59.the border closely. Canada is only ten miles away. Police say no lead

:17:26. > :17:31.spread through the underground storm drains, vapours triggered explosions
:17:32. > :17:36.blocks away. This man was standing just feet away from a manhole
:17:37. > :17:45.cover, which suddenly erupts at the cannon being fired. Watch again.
:17:46. > :17:48.This time from a different view. Experts say, for a heavily loaded
:17:49. > :17:54.tanker, any turn is potentially dangerous. In 2007, a tanker rolled
:17:55. > :17:58.over and burst into flames in Oakland, California. Somehow, the
:17:59. > :18:06.driver of the truck escaped with minor injuries. Because of the
