outside this small town that straddles the utah/arizona border. rivers swollen, flash floods and locals gathered to watch the rushing muddy water. >> see those big old logs coming down. >> reporter: two vehicles filled with their mothers and children, 16 in all were stopped on the gravel road when a wall of water and debris hit them from behind. >> the flash flood was so significant it overwhelmed them and pushed them into the channel. the vehicles were rolled several hundred yards downstream. >> reporter: just three were pulled to safety. the rest, the other 13 now either dead or missing. the youngest child reportedly just 4 years old. >> he's starting to build a heck of a dam. >> reporter: this tight-knit town had quarters of warren jeffs po littlist sectsome. a group of women were pulled from this stranded vehicle fearing they too would be washed away.

smoldering in the background. it's a lot cooler today of you can feel how much more damp it is but the fight is not over. this morning the valley fire still burning in northern california. only 10% contained. the scale of its destruction across more than 62,000 acres, now revealed. the first fatality announced overnight, kgo reporting 72-year-old barbara mcwilliams was unable to escape the fire tearing through middletown. fire crews helpless to stop its progress. exhausted from relentlessly chasing the flames since saturday getting rest wherever they can on the side of the road, even in driveways, their work monday grueling. firefighters here are so overwhelmed they're not even trying to stop blazes like this. all they're concerned about parked just a few feet away is protecting homes and people. but the fire seemingly playing hopscotch incinerating one house, entirely sparing its neighbors. look at these before and after

images. 23,000 forced from their homes, some clamoring to get back monday to feed their animals. as 1800 firefighters continue to fight these flames, hundreds left camping out at a red cross shelter. >> i can't sleep. i'm thinking about my home, my everything. >> reporter: it could be a long time before those people get to come back here. california officials are calling this one of the most destructive wildfires in state history and you can't underestimate how much of the infrastructure has been destroyed here in middletown. officials telling us it could be a week before people get water back and many weeks about of this he restore power. >> okay, matt, thanks very much. to ginger for more on this. the break helps the firefighters but also is behind the flooding. >> exactly. that's why we put this on here, hildale, that same community you saw the stunning images of the flash flooding from, the radar here, the showers and storms, 12 to 18 hours of them, it's only an inch to 2 1/2 inches that

fell but you add the mountains and you get flash flooding quickly. that could happen in a lot of places today, remnants of linda out in the pacific, a little late monsoon flow all trapped under the stationary front, extra lift and more of that from wyoming and colorado back out to the west. here's the good news. another system, a cold front coming in look at the valley fire getting rain wednesday night. actual rain, the butte fire, yes, you're close, you get a little moisture, at least. >> thank you. now to those security concerns just one week before pope francis visits the u.s. the fbi has arrested a teenager allegedly planning a terrorist attack possibly targeting the pope. abc's pierre thomas has exclusive details. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the suspect is not being identified because he's so young but we're told the teen is from the philadelphia area and sources say what has them concerned is how misguided he was and that he was influenced by the vicious intentions of isis. abc news has learned that the

fbi has arrested a 15-year-old boy it claims was inspired by isis and who was contemplating attacking pope francis. the juvenile sought to conduct a detailed homeland attack which included multiple attackers, phiarms and multiple explosives targeting a foreign dignitary at a high-profile event according to an august joint bulletin from the fbi and homeland security. sources tell abc news the pope was among the considered targets, and this is what mike mccaul, chairman of the house homeland security committee expressed concern about on "this week" last sunday. >> we are monitoring very closely threats against the pope as he comes into the united states, we have disrupted one particular case in particular. >> reporter: but sources familiar with the case tell abc news that the threat was not imminent and that the boy's plans were at the aspirational stage. on monday officials say there is no threat to the pope.

it shows isis is using social media to inspire lone wolves, even children. the bulletin goes on to state the minor obtained explosives instructions and further disseminated these instructions through social media. the social media threat from isis and so-called lone wolves is growing. and with the pope set to arrive a week from today, this kind of unpredictable threat is what law enforcement must prepare for. george. >> that is going on in new york and washington. okay, pierre, thanks very much. the race for president now, "your voice, your vote," and that huge texas rally for donald trump, thousands in an arena last night sparking a tense clash outside over trump's controversial immigration policy. all for the next debate tomorrow night. tom llamas on the scene in dallas. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. just behind me this is where the mavericks play, 20,000 people and all the cheers were for donald trump last night of the tickets were sold out. not every seat was filled.

there were some empty pockets but still a massive crowd and for the first time something we haven't seen this cycle yet an anti-trump movement showing its teeth after the event. >> what is your badge number, sir? >> reporter: overnight an ugly scene outside donald trump's rally. >> if you build that wall you'll pay for it. >> reporter: trump supporters clashing with protesters.

even stronger position than the last one. >> reporter: no question about that, george. with this debate donald trump though faces his biggest test yet. he walks into that center stage wearing a big bull's-eye. during the last debate the only attacks came from the moderators. the candidates, the others thought they could simply ignore him. nobody thinks they can ignore him anymore. look at how his position changed. right before the last debate, trump was the clear front-runner, but the more traditional candidates like scott walker and jeb bush were not far behind. now trump is the prohibitive front-runner. the only one close is another outsider, ben carson, establishment candidates, the senator, governors on the verge of disappearing. those at the back of the pack will be looking for a breakthrough moment in this debate and the surest way to get a breakthrough moment is going to be picking a fight with the front-runner, donald trump. >> create that confrontation. we know trump has been going after jeb bush and also took on carly fiorina in that "rolling stone" interview saying look at that face and she's coming back

hard. she's going to be onta stage for the first time tomorrow night. >> yeah, and that's going to be one of the interesting subplots in the debate. the first time trump has had a woman on the table with him and one he has fought with vigorously. fiorina has shown she is not afraid to throw punches at trump and traufrp made it clear he will not hold back from attacking her or going after her record as the ceo of hewlett-packard and not holding back at all simply because she is a woman. >> a lot of sparks flying tomorrow night, jon karl, thanks very much. >> now overseas to the humanitarian crisis in europe. the worst since world war ii. hundreds of thousands fleeing war and devastation and this morning hungary declaring a state of emergency watch becoming the latest country to close its borders. abc's terry moran is in serbia on the border with hungary. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this is the new reality at the hundred gatherian border. thousands waiting overnight but the gate is closed and look behind me there, hungarian

police in riot gear now authorized to use rubber bullets against anyone who tries to cross. overnight a box car bristling with razor wire sealed the final gap in the border fence. the last to come across were herded into buses driven away in the darkness destination, unknown. and this morning, the first arrests. across europe governments are scrambling, germany, austria, netherlands and slovakia have joined them with restrictions. but that is no solution for them. this morning we met khalid and faid, 12-year-old twins who have been on the road for a month but still full of fun. they tell me they'll never forget their terrifying boat journey to greece. you were afraid you were going to die in that boat. >> or drown. >> reporter: and now what? they're telling you should go from here to bosnia and croatia and italy and on?

>> no, we can't go from -- we can't go from here to serbia -- from serbia to bosnia. >> reporter: another 500 miles and more from here. european leaders have failed once again to agree on a plan to handle this crisis but still the people keep coming. george. >> such a scary situation there and there are some scary moments on a college campus, put the whole school on lockdown. that story in 30 seconds.

mississippi highway overnight when he ran into a wooded area and police say killed himself. >> we didn't want it to happen this way. he made that decision. >> reporter: police say lamb is also a suspect in an earlier killing nearly five hours south near biloxi. they say that victim is 41-year-old amy prentiss and say the two were romantically involved and lived together and he called them to report that killing and told them he wasn't going to jail. currently sharing no motive for either shooting. they're calling that second victim his girlfriend. there is a vigil scheduled on the campus tonight. amy. >> all right, steve osunsami, thanks for the latest on that. also breaking overnight a new threat from north korea. kim jong-un's government announcing it has restarted a nuclear reactor and is ready to use nuclear weapons, quote, any time against the united states. analysts say the threat may be a ploy aimed at pressuring the u.s. into restarting talks. the threat also comes weeks before a major political

pretty chord or ugly chord and it smells awful or it smells great. it's just like music. >> how would you describe the scent? what does it smell like. >> really sweet. there's a little bit of marshmallow, a little bit of -- >> marshmallow? >> yeah, raspberry. >> you have a social media campaign surround your fragrance and it's called #beyou campaign. explain that. >> it's all about being yourself and embracing who you are and sort of just, you know, being you, i guess because sometimes it can be hard to be yourself in a world where there's such high standards and people tell you have to be a certain kind of beautiful or, you know, only one type of body is being glorified in the media or something but you know be you is really about inspiring others to feel comfortable in their own skin and embracing yourself and it's okay to feel confident and be you. >> you have a lot of reasons to feel confident. you have so many hit, "problem," "break free" now working on new

music we hear. any hint on what we can expect? >> i'm announcing the first single really soon. >> really soon? >> yeah, really soon. >> like really, really soon. >> like this week soon. very soon. >> very exciting that is big news and we should mention your big brother frankie was here. >> he covered you in glitter. >> i walked away -- i'm still actually looking for glitter on me. he talked about how close you are. how you sing around the house. what are some of your go-to songs when the two of you are singing around? >> oh, god. we love singing -- i don't know. it's always either like some sort of campy musical theater song or madonna or some sort of ridiculous 'nsync throwback moment. >> i'm open any day of the week i like to sing too. ariana grande, thanks for joining us, we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. ari by ariana grande available in select stores now and let's head back out to ginger. >> what a star-studded morning

>> well, yeah, i don't know. i guess you don't -- you know, consider yourself an action person or i don't know. you always think bad ass people have to do that. it's fun to do. makes me feel like a kid. that 12-year-old side of me. >> you make it look good. you have the action down, i see you sliding and jumping and just finally you said 12-year-old kid. that's when you said you moved away but the east coast is always in your heart. >> i do. >> we did something special for you and made a weather forecast specifically with extreme weather. >> no way. >> yes. already -- >> scorched conditions and winds up to 85. >> 5-mile-per-hour gusts so that's pretty significant and up in the arctic village, winter weather advisory in alaska, 5 to 9 inches above 2500 feet. >> so funny. >> next time include that in the next sequel. all right.

everyone is a director out here. they yelled and action. hanging out with my friend, amy, both fellow thrivers and we'll talk about our other friend, tory johnson with a new book out, "shift for good." simple changes for lasting joy inside and out. it's a sequel to her best-seller "the shift" about her impressive weight loss and how she did it. the book inspired many people to do the same including one young woman who got a shift surprise. 20-year-old kaolin blonstein hit a major milestone. >> i'm down 71 pounds. >> studying journalism at quinnipiac university inspired to lose weight last summer after

reading "shift for good," a "new york times" best-seller written by tory jones. >> here with bargains up to 77% off. >> i understood how she struggled her whole life and was overweight and how she felt self-conscious in her job. >> she kept a blog and took no shortcut posting pictures of her progress. >> i have a fitbit and use it to track my food, my water. to keep me on top of things. when i first started, my jeans were super, super tight and now i'm in 12s that are getting big. to understand how much weight i had lost i'll go to the grocery store and pick up 70 pounds of kitty litter. you can't understand how much you lose until you're physically holding it in your hands. >> reporter: when tory lers of kaolin's story they connected with tory cheering her on all the way. >> i'm here at quinnipiac university to surprise her. i brought an extra treat, a $500 gift certificate to the gap.

i think i hear her coming. >> kaolin. >> oh, my god. >> hi. >> you're gorgeous. >> thank you. >> do you feel great. >> yeah. >> i brought you a little present. >> are you serious? thank you, thank you, thank you. >> reporter: the gift certificate will help kaolin with one of the most costly parts of losing weight, buying a new wardrobe for her new body. >> i've changed as a person and changed my whole personality. it's more than just weight loss. >> it is and i tell you, nothing brings this woman more joy than to bring other people joy like you did with cailyn. >> she's one of so many others who we heard from who say i could never do this and inspired her father to lose 50 pounds, her mother that day was crying to me saying we cried everything and nothing worked. nothing will work until you are ready and i know that. i know that. >> you know that because you wanted to show before and after pictures.

you wanted people to remind people this is what you wanted to do. >> yeah. >> oh, my gosh. how did you allow me on television. >> oh, come on. >> seriously, seriously. >> when somebody said to me you don't look your best there's no way around that. there's no way to argue that. that's true. we don't need to show it anymore. and so what i think about, your mom, your mom saying make your mess your message and god knows i had a mess and to be able to use that to help other people for me is the greatest thing. >> i got to say this, we never saw that tory. we just saw -- we saw the beauty, we saw the compassion and all that. this is something that you wanted to do. >> absolutely. >> and you said, if only -- had you to stop -- >> if only i had to stop saying. i thought for 40 years if only i could lose weight it could be perfect. there's no easy path to life's success. it did not make me immune to career disappointment or the incredible sadness of my kids going off to college and leaving me. you know, with an empty nest and

what i realized is that we all have these if onlies and use them as a crutch and such a dangerous way to live thinking if only i had a better spouse, if only i had my kids at home rather than that college dorm or i had more money and it prevents us from doing the hard work every single day to bring joy, happiness and good health and it does take work every single day. i want to talk about a couple of those. so i believe from morning till night so i have my secret drawer here, red underwear, okay. the story -- >> do tell. >> when you bake up in the important and feel like the world is against you and you've got so much to do, that's your little hidden power secret. that's you being able to say to yourself i got this. >> are you weighing it right now. >> i am wearing it right now. of course, my big day then i end the night i made this pill show for myself. a little "deals & steals." what went wrong? we're thinking about all the stuff we forgot and all the things we didn't do so this

helps me to sort of celebrate the good things. i ok a page from george and dan harris and learned meditation. if that's not your thing a ten-minute walk around 9 block every single day in the middle of the day, no device, that's your moment of calm. my last thing, okay, when you feel like doom and gloom, the world is against you, instead of reaching for cupcakes or chips like i used to you grab a balloon, right. you grab a balloon and empty moon and you release all that negativity. instead of taking to social media and being a hater on bingeing on stuff, you sort of blow into that balloon all that stuff you've got to release and you let go of it. >> let it go. >> with every breath i blow into this balloon i'm releasing negativity that can no longer occupy precious space inside me. "shift for good." that's what it's about. it's changing the way you think in order to change the way you feel. >> absolutely. absolutely. and that for me is the key to losing weight, to being happier in all ways. >> are we happy?
