this is the cell we have been tracking. that supercell would drop a large tornado. destroying this home near elmer. >> got my wife, got our belongings. we went to the shower. you could hear the hail. >> reporter: passing through a cow pasture in the small oklahoma town. we got caught in the storm. listen to that hail hit the roof. you can hear the tornado sirens going off. rain-wrapped tornado right there, heading northeast. more storms would fire farther south. this tornado hitting geronimo. and heavy rain causing flash flooding in wichita. just an unbelievable day and night. frightening at times for sure. now, the storms have moved a little bit to the east. today's going to be another turbulent one. let's break down the storm reports, we had over 170 of them. we mentioned the tornadoes.

huge hail in some cases. and rainfall is going to be an issue, too. we're seeing some heavy rain moving across north texas, where they don't need it at all. the severe risk today is going to be across minnesota, where they had a handful of tornadoes doing damage yesterday. they could hit two days in a row. then, heavy rain is going to be a problem too, across the areas that got that heavy rain. calmer weather later this week. another day today where it's going to be rough across the central u.s. back to you guys in the studio. >> rob, you said that weather moving east. boy, did we see it in maryland, nasty weather, heavy rain and a sloppy track could not stop kentucky derby winner american pharaoh from dominating at the preakness, the powerful colt now has a shot at the first triple crown in almost 40 years, and abc's mara schiavocampo has the latest. >> reporter: that horse did it in far from ideal conditions.

whereas other horses were totally spooked by it. >> i think the horses that favor those conditions are called mudders. >> good to know. >> tough muzers. thanks, mara. we're going to switch gears now, head overseas, about that raid by u.s. commandos, taking out a top isis commander. they also cam churd the man's wife and freed a person held. terry moran is on the story from our london bureau. >> reporter: good morning, dan. this was a risky operation. very risky. a strike deep into the heart of isis-controlled territory in syria. targeting the upper echelons of the leadership. a daring offensive for dozens of u.s. commandos deep in isis-controlled territory in syria. their objective, capture and interrogate abu sayyaf, one of terror organization's key

leaders, a tunisian believed to be top money man. >> the revenue streams are extremely important for their survival. >> reporter: a counterterrorism official reveals to abc news, he also suspected the isis commander who given kayla mueller, the last known american hostage killed in february as a bride. friday night, elite department ya force zero in on syria. u.s. special operation forces striking sayyaf's house defended by isis militants from inside and outside, the pentagon says. a fierce gun battle breaking out as isis fighters turned women and children into human shields. abu sayyaf killed in the combat along with a dozen isis fighters. his iraqi-born wife captured and held for questioning. 18-year-old yezidi woman reportedly freed. all american personnel returning

safely, after seizing laptops possibly containing intelligence about the terrorist group. this raid comes as isis is advancing on other fronts, especially in the key iraqi city of ramadi. but what happened to abu sayyaf sends a clear message to all isis leaders, there's no safe place for you. >> terry, thank you. and back home as fbi forensic experts analyze whether a flying object hit the amtrak train that derailed in a deadly track. new audio tapeses emerging as to what might have happened. abc news' philip mena joins us with the very latest. >> reporter: forcing amtrak to install speed control technology at the crash site.

the same technology they say could have prevented this. this morning, ntsb collecting ed from the derailed amtrak train, attempting to answer the question, could this damage to the windshield somehow played a role in the crash? >> we have seen damage to the left-hand lower portion of the amtrak windshield that we have asked the fbi to come in and look at for us. >> reporter: new audio recordings from transit police radios in philadelphia, discussing possible shots fired. >> an unknown object made contact with that train, shattering that windshield. >> reporter: fbi investigators assisting the ntsb removing the windshield for further forensic testing. determining it was hit by a projectile. that may have hit the train a few miles of the philly train station. >> transits 1, let those personnel know that the roc put out a text, saying that train was shot at. so use caution.

people travel on amtrak, so, why has federal funding become a political football? >> it really has become a political football, no question about that. republicans, like speaker john boehner, the amtrak operating budget is actually going up. safety funds haven't been cut. it had the safety device required it just wasn't operational. amtrak got billions of dollars with the president's stimulus package back in 2010. but that's against the backdrop of even more billions of dollars in repairs needed. so, this debate is not going away any time soon. this morning on "this week" we'll get into that and also talk to the head of the investigation. >> george, thank you. george has a big show coming up this morning. we'll be speaking to the chairman of the ntsb as well as the senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. that's on "this week" later this morning, right here on abc. thanks, again, george. let's send it to ron with the other stories we're tracking. >> george always has a big show.

so i asked my doctor about victoza. he said victoza works differently than pills and comes in a pen. victoza is proven to lower blood sugar and a1c. it's taken once a day, any time. and the needle is thin. victoza is not for weight loss but it may help you lose some weight. victoza is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. victoza has not been studied with mealtime insulin. victoza is not insulin. do not take victoza if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza or any of its ingredients. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face lips, tongue or throat fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching.

tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza including inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) which may be fatal. stop taking victoza and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back with or without vomiting. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. taking victoza with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. the most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. if your pill isn't giving you the control you need... ask your doctor about non-insulin victoza. it's covered by most health plans.
