this is a catastrophic amount of debris. i mean all that water rushing down the creek. down the mountain. you see air bridge that's been ripped apart and look at the remnant, smashed car after smashed car. we saw power lines that were torn apart too. in fact, look up on the side of this house. this car was smashed up against it too and this morning there are dozens of people that officials still have not heard from. overnight, a desperate search for people still unaccounted for after flash floods ripped through western virginia. >> houses in the road. it's just a mess. >> reporter: the governor declaring a state of emergency in buchanan county after six inches fell in 90 minutes. this pickup hanging on a river bank. its windshield shattered. drone video capturing the extent of the damage from the fast-moving floodwaters. >> they lost everything. >> reporter: at least 100 homes suffering severe damage. many lines of communication knocked off line. >> we were stranded in the house

and the water kept coming up. >> reporter: first responders say accessing homes in the remote area has been a struggle for search and rescue teams and in maryland, winds taking down trees, knocking them onto cars and power lines. >> i don't know if it was lightning striking or wind or but it was just down and the electrical lines are down and there's a fire on the fence. >> reporter: homes knocked right off their foundations. >> i was sleeping there earlier today. i could have died. >> reporter: charlotte, north carolina, heavy rain triggering flash floods in several counties. in ohio violent storms ripping through the toledo area. and officials stress that those dozens of people who are unaccounted for are not considered missing. this is a difficult area for communication especially with all these power lines being knocked down and stress so far no reported fatalities but of course they are looking for all of these people. george? >> trevor ault, thanks very much. let's go straight to ginger. where is this headed? >> one of the main factors it was in appalachia, and a stalled front moving super slowly so it is not headed very far very quickly. where we were talking about here

along that state line of west virginia and southwest virginia. there's the stalled front and how it was positioned when this happened. this is, again, you know, 24, more than 24 hours ago at this point and those training thunderstorms roll over that front that does not move. it's in the name, stalled. what's happening now is this thing will push to the south. virginia, you will be good to go. you'll have plenty of dry air to clear out. but, amy, we'll talk about where it's moving next and who has all that heat fueling these storms. >> thank you for that. we turn to the latest on soaring inflation. worse than expected in june, prices up 9.1% over the past year. that is the highest in nearly 41 years. in some areas of the country the inflation rate is above 10%. whit johnson is tracking the impact. good morning, whit. >> reporter: amy, good morning to you. these grim inflation numbers may come as no surprise to many americans who feel the sting of these prices every time they shop or pay the rent, but after this worse than expected report is raising real questions about

where the economy is headed next. this morning, growing fears of a possible recession as inflation hits a near 41-year high. prices in june soaring 9.1% compared to a year ago. higher than economists expected. big increases impacting just about everything from food to rent to energy. >> we're using majority of our paycheck just to afford gas. >> reporter: the average household spending $493 more per month for the same goods they bought a year ago. according to moody's analytics, grocery prices rising at their fastest pace since 1979. up more than 20%. >> no matter where i shop prices are so much higher than ever before. >> reporter: in june a dozen eggs cost $2.71 up from $1.64 a year ago, a gallon of milk, $4.15 last month up from $3.56. >> i'm looking at prices more and not buying things that's not needed like junk food. >> reporter: more families needing assistance too struggling to put food on the table.

our victor oquendo is in south florida. >> this is a food distribution site in miami gardens, a vital lifeline for families, and the demand is skyrocketing. take a look at the line. it stretches for about a mile. >> reporter: bank of america forecasting the u.s. will fall into a mild recession this year. despite growing wages for workers, economists say they're losing ground to inflation. >> real wages when you adjust for inflation are down 3.6%. that means for most workers for the average worker they're not even treading water. wages are not keeping pace with price increases. >> reporter: but there are some hopeful signs. gas prices starting to come down. and prices are cooling on popular electronics. the cost of smartphones fell 20% in june from a year ago. tvs down 12.7%. one reason for the drop in smartphone prices is the increase quality and growing popularity of refurbished products that are coming on the

market. now on inflation, some economists are predicting that the federal reserve will get even more aggressive as it tries to offset rising prices with a supersize rate hike possibly as high as a full percentage point later this month. gio? >> all right, whit. like you said it is not all bad news. gas prices have been falling steadily, so let's go to matt gutman for a reality check on those gas prices. hey, matt, good morning. >> reporter: hey, good morning, gio. according to that inflation report, gas prices are major culprits in the rising consumer prices. check out that sign behind me, $6.25 a gallon for gas. you're thinking that can't be good but aaa says that for 29 consecutive days gas prices have declined from a peak of just over $5 a gallon for a national average a month ago to $4.60 today. this gas station reducing prices by 45 cents, just in the last

couple weeks. a lot is due to the global decline in oil prices due to a slowing global economy. we are a long way off from where we were a year ago today with gas prices at $3.14 a gallon. experts are telling us we could still see record prices in august. if a hurricane hits oil refineries or there's turbulent in the middle east. george? >> okay, matt, thanks very much. to washington now and new developments on possible witness tampering by former president trump. we're learning more about a january 6th committee witness who reported a contact from trump and congressional correspondent rachel scott has the details. good morning, rachel. >> reporter: george, good morning. sources are telling us this morning that former president donald trump did try to reach out to a member of the white house support team that has been in contact with the january 6th select committee. sources say this is not someone who would typically be in contact with the former president. they did not answer that phone call. their attorney then informed the committee. lawmakers say this is all part of a pattern.

they are pointing to the timing of the outreach saying it came right after that striking testimony from former white house aide cassidy hutchinson and congresswoman liz cheney essentially putting former president donald trump on notice warning of possible witness tampering and says the committee will not stand for it. all of this now turns to the justice department. the committee is leaving it up to them to decide if donald trump did anything wrong here. no comment from them this morning but a spokesperson for the former president says the committee continues to traffic lies and innuendos. george? >> the justice department investigation does continue. thank you very much, rachel scott. amy? george, now to president biden in israel this morning on his first trip to the middle east since taking office. iran and their nuclear program at the top of the president's agenda as well as inflation numbers here at home. our senior white house correspondent mary bruce is in jerusalem with the latest on that. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, amy. president biden just finished wrapping questions here in jerusalem. he was pressed about his controversial decision to travel to saudi arabia tomorrow. biden of course pledged as a

candidate to make saudi arabia a global pariah for its brutal killing of journalist jamal khashoggi. now biden won't even say if he'll bring up khaskhashoggi's with the crown prince. he says he's never been quiet on the issue of human rights. he says it's important to engage in the reason, saying their can't be a vacuum left to be filled by china or russia. this trip is also about oil, facing pressure at home to lower high gas prices. the president is hoping by re-engaging with saudi arabia he can increase the flow of oil back to the u.s. this trip is putting president biden and this white house in a tricky position. george? >> mary bruce, thanks. now to breaking news from ukraine. a russian missile strike killed at least a dozen people. ukraine's national police say an office and residential building was hit. tom soufi burridge has the latest. good morning, tom.

>> reporter: yeah, good morning, george. details still emerging but we're seeing absolute devastation at the scene. this video posted by president zelenskyy and verified by abc news images emerging which are too shocking to show including a baby stroller amongst the carnage. the death toll rising all morning. ukrainian officials now saying at least 20 people have been killed including a baby. 50 people seriously injured. what is also shocking is it happened midmorning in a busy downtown city. that's southwest of kyiv. many ukrainian families have moved there with their families to get away from the fighting in the east, thinking it was a relative safe zone. the horrific scene a reminder no part of this country is immune from russia's invasion. president zelenskyy calling it yet another act of russian terrorism. george? >> this war grinds on in such a cruel way. tom, thanks very much. amy? now to uber sued by more than 500 women claiming sexual assault by drivers. erielle reshef joins us with the very latest on what the ride-sharing company is saying this morning and, erielle, this comes just one month after that company released a safety report

revealing nearly a thousand sexual assaults incidents reported in 2020 alone. >> reporter: that's right, amy. these are some disturbing allegations. uber is being sued by 550 women who allege they were assaulted by their drivers. the lawsuit filed in san francisco claiming the ride serving service has known about sexual misconduct by some of their drivers since 2014. the suit alleges passengers are kidnapped, sexually assaulted, sexually battered, and it came after a report that claimed nearly 4,000 uber drivers and victims reported sexual assaults, a decline of 38% from the previous report. uber responded to the lawsuit in a statement saying, we can't comment on pending litigation. the company referring abc to its safety protocol which says, in

part, our work in safety never stops, and we are always building new ways to make the platform safer for consumers. amy? >> erielle, still some very alarming numbers, though. george? we turn to the international travel chaos. delta was forced to charter a wide-bodied jet to deliver 1,000 bags to passengers flying from europe. just one of the many headaches plaguing flyers this summer and elwyn lopez is at atlanta's airport with the latest. good morning, elwyn. >> reporter: hey, george. good morning. people are still taking to the skies in numbers not seen since before the pandemic and it's not just from coast to coast. that operational turbulence is being felt overseas. this morning, travel chaos so dire in europe, delta chartering a jet to bring back a thousand delayed bags to the u.s. the travel nightmare continues for thousands of passengers across europe. delta saying in a statement, they have worked to create a solution after regularly scheduled flight had to be canceled given airport passenger volume restrictions at heathrow. but it's not just heathrow. airports throughout europe, swarms of passengers, long lines

and piles of bags yet to reach their destination. >> it was a mess. thousands of pieces of unclaimed luggage everywhere. just all over the terminal. >> reporter: pat says she is still waiting for her suitcase ater she returned from paris via air france empty-handed nearly two weeks ago. >> every day that i check it says that it is being traced and to check back later. and i've been doing that now every day for 13 days. >> reporter: as staffing shortages plague airports and they struggle to meet demand some forced to take rare action. in amsterdam airlines being asked to cut flights and at london's largest airport, they're capping passengers at 100,000 now urging airlines to halt any additional ticket sales through early september all in an attempt to curb the surge. and delta's ceo says when you hit a rough patch in your operations, the bags are probably going to be more

affected than the customers. now, the good news here according to the airline those 1,000 bags have been forwarded to those passengers. amy? >> that is some good news. elwyn, thank you so much for that. we turn now to the latest in a rash of recent shark encounters. two men bitten by sharks off the coast of new york in two separate incidents all in the same day. stephanie ramos is on long island with the details and how officials plan to keep beachgoers safe. good morning, stephanie. >> reporter: amy, good morning. it is summer and that means millions of people are headed to the beach but recently some sharks have gotten really close to the shore. ad what some beach officials are doing is they're having spotters out on the beach and they're also having drones too. let's pull up our drone shot. our techs out here said they themselves just saw sharks out here in this water just a few moments ago. but there has been a recent uptick in shark encounters up and down the coast off the new

england coast, four great white sharks were spotted over three days. at a long island, new york, beach a surfer is grateful to be alive after a run-in with a sand tiger shark in the water wednesday morning. that same day, another man standing in waist deep water was also bitten. again, beach communities are now keeping an eye out for sharks by having spotters in the oceans more frequently and drones. this morning officials acknowledging that shark attacks like these may be part of the new normal. experts say climate change may be one factor behind sharks getting so close to the shore as the oceans get warmer, several species are migrating north and predators are following their prey into much more shallow water near the shore. guys? >> well, thank you for that, stephanie. beaches are beautiful but i love a good pool. very refreshing and safe. why don't we turn to something else here now? that extraordinary supermoon. the biggest supermoon of the

[ laughter ] >> that's a new thing. i mean, we can just drop the mic there. >> that's a very different morning smoothie, george. >> that defeats the purpose. >> absolutely. listen, when we did this and bought all the ingredients ourselves we got it down to half off. it's still an expensive smoothie. >> if you make it a meal, it could make sense. >> it is really good. >> i would add chia seeds and get that omega-3. >> is that almond butter? >> i would do that too. >> blueberry, not bad. >> the problem is when you put it all in and turns brown and doesn't taste good. that's my problem when i make smoothies.

own hair care routine with surprising ingredients. say good-bye to shampoo and hello to the kitchen pantry. >> eggs are key. i might spray rose water in my hair but i will never ever use shampoo again. >> reporter: yep, you heard it right. the no shampoo movement is a tiktok trend glenda is embracing as men and women are ditching hair products and lathering up with eggs instead. >> it feels thicker and it's soft. i don't ever use conditioner. >> i think the most common question doesn't your hair smell like eggs? you wash it out. i go three weeks between each wash and use a warm water in the meantime. >> reporter: from beaten egg yolks to rye flour, rice water, apple cider vinegar or a hot water rinse no-shampooers are experimenting with kitchen staples in the shower. >> i add a mix of distilled water and rosemary oil, scrunch that into my hair and rub it into my scalp. >> we're all kitchen

beauticians. this is sticking because, one, it's zero waste and cutting down on plastic use and i think also you're saving money which is also incredible. >> reporter: still experts say traditional shampoo is your best bet. >> i often find that the home remedies cause problems that includes either damaging the hair or causing a buildup of oil, dirt, sweat, on the scalp. >> reporter: but after nearly three years without shampoo, glenda says her hair is healthier than ever and there's no going back for her. >> it makes me feel so good having healthy hair. my self-confidence is sky high. >> reporter: so dermatologists remind us scalp health is really important for hair health so if you want to phase out the amount of shampoo you use and how often you shampoo your hair they say you can use a small amount of shampoo and concentrate on the roots to do that important job of breaking up oil that can build up on your scalp. amy? >> i learned a new phrase,

so you made history when you stepped out onto that field playing for the women's national team. how did that feel? what was that moment like? >> yeah, i mean, honestly it's a moment i probably will never be able to fully describe. again, my dad told me the night before just when you go out there take it all in. i think that's what i did when i first walked out on the field honestly. i just looked around and saw the crowd and everyone chanting usa. i just knew that, you know, my biggest dream just came true and i think it was so cool to see my parents in the stands and little kids screaming your name and things like that. honestly it was a feeling that's the best feeling i've ever had in my entire life. >> so exciting. we know the national team qualified for the 2023 world cup, carson. how is the teamfeeling right now? >> yeah. i mean, obviously i wasn't there for that moment exactly, but talking with some of the girls

and things like that, everyone is so excited. i think that the united states is the best team in the world and so it's a standard. it's a standard to qualify and standard to go win. i think everyone is excited and hungry. >> i spoke with megan rapinoe last week. she was telling me how mentoring is so important to her. has she given you any advice? >> absolutely. i was lucky enough to play with pino in seattle my first two years. even then, as a rookie, she just -- i felt like she took me under her wing and did that at national camp as well. i never would have been able to play, you know, as free as i did on the field if it wasn't for her. just having her in front of me for my first start, my first cap was unbelievable. she just helped me the entire time and the night before i remember she's just like go out and have fun and play and honestly i think that's what made me play free and look up to people like her. her, alex and all the greats that have come before me and feel lucky to have them as teammates but as really good friends. >> so many people are looking up

to you and looking to you. what do you want the world to know about people with limb differences? >> i think the biggest thing for me is just, you know, growing up my parents just raised me to be able to do everything that anyone else can do with two hands so i think that types are changing. there's more people like me now and i didn't have anyone to look up to growing up. now that social media is so big i think it's a really good platform to reach people and i think that's what happened, you know, and when i play for the united states, i've had people reach out from different countries, different states and so cool to meet people like me. just continue to have a conversation. i know sometimes it can be hard and uncomfortable but i think the more we talk about it, the better it'll be for everyone. >> your parents did a great job and you are paying it forward in a big way. carson, thanks very much for joining us this morning. >> thank you so much for having me. let's go to ginger. >> george, thank you. a glorious start in new york

anybody can do this. you set your oven for 425 degrees and throw this stuff into the oven together and wrap it if you like it steamed more for 25 to 30 minutes. >> if you don't have all these vegetables what can you use instead? >> you can use any vegetable you want with this technique. olive oil, salt, pepper. in the oven, 425 degrees, 25 to 35 minutes. >> one of the first meals you make with some of these preprepped item is a frittata. >> this is one of my favorite things to do. i take two whole eggs, five egg whites, lots of protein and with the chicken i roasted i drop some chicken in there, mix this up. >> saute it. you're reheating it. >> resauteing it. this is already stuff already in my fridge. in my fridge, i literally drop zucchini in, asparagus,

cauliflower and let that warm up a couple of minutes. let's assume it's warm and put in my eggs and i've got a frittata for literally two to three people. >> that's amazing. >> what's crazy you really didn't use any spices or anything. how do you pack that flavor that you're so famous for? >> you know, the beauty of roasting vegetables, what it does is it caramelizes the vegetables. when it's cooking it actually is bringing the sugars out of the vegetable and creating a bit of a caramelization so the vegetables themselves -- good, right? >> i'll try right now. while i'm eating, tell us there are two other dishes you made using the same vegetables for later in the week. >> you got your frittata you can have any time. we did a stir fry. really simple. easy stir fry. same exact vegetables chopped up and added sweet potato and taco tuesdays. every single night at the chernows we do a taco tuesday and, you know, you can use these vegetables just as -- you can do a vegetarian version or add

chicken to it. if you have ground beef in the fridge, add that. >> with those vegetables, how many meals -- is itg will they fridge? >> for me talking from experience when i prep like this and i do all my vegetables on sunday and my chicken i typically do chicken on sundays i will have lunch monday through friday prepared ready to go. >> they can keep for five days in the fridge and then you reheat them. >> i wouldn't do that necessarily in a restaurant keeping things five days, but in my house, i'm happy to open it up, make sure i'm happy with it and throw it into dishes. >> make sure you're happy with it? >> make sure i'm happy with it and that's it. >> happy with the stir fry. this stir fry is off the charts. scan the qr code on the screen to get these recipes. you'll want them. goodmorningamerica.com and we will be right back. >> thank you. is there absolutely. .
