behind me, this car completely burnt out, and then just feet from it, the only thing left of this house are the front steps, and this is what so many people here are coming back to, and for firefighters here, they're now battling another blaze in this same county. this morning, firefighters keeping their eye on the mountain fire as it's grown substantially and is only 5% contained. that wildfire blazing through more than 4800 acres of land in northern california. just a short distance away, the destruction of the mill fire is in plain view. melted cars, dozens of homes reduced to rubble. others injured, rushed to the hospital. the fire torching through the town of weed, california. this fire at 25% containment sent nearly 7500 people into evacuation mode. signs of the frantic escape all around. this wheelchair left behind and here, crates for pets. punishing heat adding to the challenge of fighting these

alex, thank you. turning now to the holiday weekend travel outlook as me tomorrow, abc's phil lipof has the latest from newark international airport. >> reporter: good morning, janai. this sunday we're in the middle of what's expected to be one of the busiest travel weekend in three years, we're talking pre-pandemic levels. as you mentioned millions of americans getting that last trip of summer in as most head back to work this week and some school in the coming weeks, a travel analytics firm is forecasting 40% increase in delays for drivers on the road this holiday weekend, but road traffic shouldn't be as bad as some of the other holiday weekends. however, airlines have been struggling to keep up with demands plagued by delays and cancellations. according to flightaware, just over 300 delays and 57 cancellations within the u.s. just today. atlanta, denver and los angeles top the list of busiest airports this extended weekend and some airlines are actually updating their customer service policy to help passengers deal with delays and cancellations by providing meal vouchers.

after delays of three hours or more. united and jetblue are among the airlines rolling out that policy. there's some good news, albe relative, but the national average of a gallon of regular gas is down to about $3.80, that's still higher this time last year, but still down 1.20 from the beginning of the summer, around june, and we get it, no one wants to talk about leaving a vacation early, however, according to the faa, today will be a much lighter travel day than tomorrow, which is expected to be one of the busiest of the weekend. so take that for what it's worth. janai. turning now to the wet weather in the east and the flood risk that comes with it, let's go to danielle breezy from our nashville affiliate wkrn. danielle, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, janai. i want to talk about this. we're looking at widespread rain and storms as we head into today and tomorrow for the rest of of the holiday weekend, from new york to d.c., atlanta to dallas, chicago included in all this, you mentioned the flood risk, we

got this flood watch up from cincinnati down to nashville and knoxville, parts of tennessee already received up to 7 inches of rain from storms yesterday, 2 to 4 inches of rain not out of the question for this area, and that's a big concern, you want to make sure you have a plan b indoors. back to you, eva. >> all right, thanks danielle. to politics now and former president trump's first campaign-style rally since the fbi search of mar-a-lago. abc's zohreen shah has more from washington. good morning to you, zohreen. >> reporter: good morning, eva. this was trump's first rally since the fbi search on mar-a-lago last month. he was in pennsylvania to support dr. mehmet oz who's running in a competitive senate race against lieutenant governor john fetterman. the former president spoke for about two hours. he had a lot to say, spending a lot of time unleashing on biden and the fbi search and continuing to tease another run for office. this comes just days after a biden went hard at trump himself saying in a primetime speech that trump and maga republicans

are threats to democracy, trump's supporters our team spoke to at the rally say they believe trump was unfairly targeted and believe the search will backfire on the fbi and they also say biden's rhetoric has energized the trump base ahead of the midterms. now the data doesn't necessarily support that more broadly, republican candidates are trailing in key pennsylvania races, and analysis from our colleagues at fivethirtyeight indicate that trump's presence may come with some risks for gop candidates with the odds of democrats keeping the senate improving although the gop is still favored to win the house, of course with 65 days to the midterms a lot can change, tomorrow on labor day, biden will be back in pennsylvania, as well as wisconsin, two states his team has their eyes on with critical races in both places. let's bring in martha raddatz hosting "this week"

later this morning, you heard zohreen talk about that primetime address that president biden gave this week, we really saw for the first time in a shift in tone from the presidents calling maga extremism a threat to democracy, biden touted himself as someone who could bring people together. >> it's a real change in strategy. he's not only targeting former president trump but also his maga supporters as you said, calling them a threat to democracy. the gloves are truly off, i think what biden is trying to do here is replicate the 2020 race, although he's not on the ballot, donald trump is not on the ballot, but he is appealing to his democratic base, he's appealing to all democrats, he's appealing to independents, and of course you heard trump last night, former president trump last night calling biden the enemy of the people, this is about to get very, very interesting, eva. >> sounds like it. let's turn now to that

ongoing doj investigation into those classified documents at mar-a-lago. the full detailed list of what was seized has now been released, what does that tell us about where this investigation is headed? >> i think that investigation is still open, they're still working on it, but you see those pictures of those documents spread out there, which former president trump said is unfair, but that's normally what the fbi would do when they gather documents like that. the evidence is truly mounting although he says it's simply a vicious attack. >> martha raddatz, thank you. tune into "this week" later this morning after president biden's dire warning about the threats to american democracy. the administration's aggressive new messaging ahead of the midterms. republican representative michael mccaul reacts to the latest on trump mar-a-lago documents investigation.

next to the major developments overnight in the search for a missing schoolteacher in tennessee, police now say they found the car that they believe was involved in this kidnapping and they have also made an arrest. abc's mola lenghi has the latest from memphis. >> reporter: finding that vehicle appears to have been the key to finding a suspect and making an arrest, a 38-year-old man has now been charged with aggravated kidnapping. still eliza fletcher police say who was abducted on this memphis road behind me, is missing this morning. this morning, breakthrough in the search for memphis mom eliza fletcher, police say they found the vehicle of interest and detained the man who was inside it. eliza nowhere to be found. >> it's now been a number of hours since they've detained an individual that was in the car allegedly used in this abduction, have real concerns aout her well-being, because it's just been too long. >> more than anything we want to see eliza returned home safely.

>> reporter: her family pleading for someone to come forward, offering a $50,000 reward. >> we believe someone knows what happened and can help. >> reporter: abc affiliate confirming fletcher is the granddaughter of a prominent businessman and philanthropist and the niece of the city's chief legal officer. the 34-year-old teacher reported missing friday after she did not return from an early morning run. police saying a dark suv approached her around 4:30 a.m. and forced her inside the car, heerwherho. authitsawa al one nearheaseportey o w cves thviiz sorrow by what's going on. >> reporter: second person not currently believed to be connected has also been arrested.

this investigation is ongoing. multiple agencies are involved, including the fbi. >> still so many questions. mola, thank you. from memphis now to mississippi, and a frightening scene in the air there where police say a man stole an airplane and threatened to crash it into a walmart. this morning, that suspect is in custody. abc's faith abubey is here with more. terrifying story, faith. >> reporter: it really is. good morning to you, janai. authorities say they don't believe the suspect is a licensed pilot. he worked at the tupelo regional airport, fueling aircraft, and that's how he allegedly got access to the plane at a time when that airport was closed. this morning, the man who allegedly set off an emergency scramble in mississippi with a stolen plane is behind bars. 29-year-old corey patterson behind bars, facing criminal charges after police say he snatched this twin-engine plane and then

threatened to intentionally crash it into a walmart. investigators say patterson called 911 shortly after sneaking onto the plane around 5:00 a.m. saturday. >> he made an approach from the north. probably a hundred feet off the runway before he pulled up. >> reporter: police evacuating the walmart, declaring the area surrounding tupelo a danger zone. to avoid the area while negotiators tried to convince the 29-year-old to safely land the plane, but online showing the plane crisscrossing the skies over mississippi for hours. >> this is a five-ton airplane, fully loaded, 600 pounds of gas it would have done terrible damage if he had followed through. >> reporter: the suspect even apparently leaving a good-bye message on his facebook page saying, quote, sorry, everyone, never actually wanted to hurt anyone. >> we know he was getting close to running out of fuel. the pilot didn't have experience

to land an aircraft. >> reporter: police negotiators attempted to convince patterson to land the plane with the help of a private pilot. >> hi aborted the landing. >> reporter: minutes later, the pilot confirmed he had landed safely in a field and was uninjured. patterson has been charged with grand larceny and making terroristic threats. but investigators say after the initial threat patterson did not want to hurt himself or anyone else. meantime, walmart tells abc news it's grateful the situation ended without incident and everyone involved is safe. eva. >> thanks, faith. now to queen elizabeth cancelling an appearance just ahead of preparing to formally appoint britain's new prime minister. abc's james longman with the latest. good morning to you, james. >> reporter: good morning, eva. thought to be one of her favorite events but the queen has missed the highland games up in scotland, the palace said the decision has made due to her comfort. now the games are an ancient

tradition, celebration of celtic and scottish culture, the tug of war and the toss where they take massive trunks of wood and throw them up in the air. the queen absolutely loves it. you often see her laughing and joking with members of the royal family, but it does require her to sit for long periods of time in public. she's 9 of years old, we know she has mobility issues. so she has not gone this year. prince charles went instead along with camilla and princess anne. another royal first this week, on tuesday, prime minister boris johnson will resign, he'll be replaced by either liz trust or the former chancellor. usually the outgoing prime minister or her successor comes here to buckingham palace to meet the queen, but for the first time in 70 years, both the prime minister, the new prime minister and the outgoing will go up to scotland to meet the

queen. it won't happen here. this will be the 15th prime minister of her reign. >> unbelievable. james longman good to see you on a sunday as well. next we move to the pandemic, those new booster shots that are being rolled out and for the first time these boosters are tailored to fighting more than one covid variant, both the original virus and the omicron variant as well. medical contributor dr. patel joins us. now dr. patel, always good to see you. how big of a deal are these boosters? >> you know, in terms of a tailored recipe toward a dominant strain, this is a very big move, and especially important for people out there who are at high rick, either immunocompromised or above the age of 50. so anyone out there in this category, concerned at all, pay attention to the timing, when you last got your last shot and look to see when vaccines will be available near you. go to vaccines.gov to find a location. >> it sounds, all people can get

them already? >> right now, they're available for people 12 and up for pfizer. 18 and up for moderna. you want to make sure you're at least two months out from your last shot. the cdc is recommending you can wait even longer, about three months. but what about previous covid-19 infection and the recommendation there is to view previous infection as its own booster. wait about two to three months after that. >> double-check their timing on all this. it's september already, along with the pandemic we're looking ahead to the flu season, some warnings it could be a particularly nasty one, how does it look to you? >> i can't believe it's already september and we're talking about this, but we have a triad on our hands. number one, not a particularly bad flu season in the last two seasons. our national immunity is lower than normal. number two, restrictions aren't anymore. people aren't wearing masks as they used to. lots of gathering. last, but not least we look at the southern hemisphere to look what our flu season is going to
