let's look at where isaac is now.ical depression bringing heavy rain across the heartland. thunderstorms and lightning popping up. this is important to note if you are in the kansas city area or headed to peoria, we are looking at a lot of rain. look at the forecast total of rainfall. it stretches across missouri well into ohio and kentucky. isaac, even though it's no longer a strong tropical system, it's still a rainmaker. you may be wondering how it's going to impact the drought stricken areas. we have exceptional drought. that includes arkansas and missouri. yesterday, as the remnants and moisture came in, it brought too much rain. flooding in the area. the only flood advisory, there's a little bit left over in louisiana. it's because new orleans had 20 inches of rain. it's going to take awhile for the moisture to subside and we'll see things look better. to let you know, for those of you traveling, many of you are, i'm anticipated delays. cincinnati, chicago, st. louis, san diego and las vegas. what a day when you

when isaac hit, that drove up the prices ten cents. are saying that will come down now that isaac is on the way out. >> what about the boom in back to school shopping? >> back to school shopping is interesting because what analysts are saying is that parents spent less over the summer in anticipation of spending more for september. so what you're seeing now are the retailers having better than expect d numbers. for example, nordstrom, target, better than expected numbers there. it's because they were holding back. in addition to the fact there's a new fashion cycle happening. you walk down the street and see these store windows with bright colors and jeans that everyone is sort -- your eyes gravitate towards, analysts are saying that's what spawning this buying spree. and they are saying that it may not go on towards christmas because we still -- consumer confidence is still low and people are worried about unemployment. a lot of these retailers are kind of revising their guidance as they move forward. >> here's what's interesting, wha

if anyone stands it is going to be isaac cline's. he goes down to his brothers ans an hour or so later the ftse is at a 15-foot level and the surge is coming just below and his t house is on 15 foot stultz.ut yo he manages to go up the frontown door and monitor the storm. seig shut your eyes and imagine your own neighborhood looking out the back door and seeing instead ofd the house but store shrubs andig so forth what you see is the open sea on the rooftop for that kind of thing plus the windber o and tiberi -- debri.sa as he is standing there at thei, door looking out, the sea risesr and this is not the time today he is coming in now and the sea rises.and i reized at when i thfirst read this i had a sort of the epiphany. i wao s on the train to washingn and i realized at the moment it read that dhaka, this is all sort of sympathy for isaac as a parent, but finca about what d that meant.n families living then, eight kids and in many cases the womenst remained at home and was asked e if he or anyone story house it is the moment betwe

>> i love that that farmer was offering to mix drinks for isaac if isaac could get there.e rain, though, some are concerned the rain this late in the game could make the situation worse. are they concerned at all about crop disease? >> you know, to a degree they are but not so much at this time because they are not expecting that much rain. you can see off in the distance there are some green soybean fields out there. that's the green you see out in this direction also. those crops are expected to survive. but they have to get a lot of rain and have the rain sit there, the water sit there in order to create a fungus and cause a problem. that's really not a big worry right now, randi. >> how have the farmers been gettinghrough this, this drought? >> you know, as best they can. some of them are trying to help each other if they have extra hay to spare. but the cost of feed is up so much, usually $180 a ton now, up to $380. sometimes people who are raising cattle, some of the farmers are having to sell them off and go under, like we mentioned in the story. they are just tryin

live satellite image right now of isaac.ed for four deaths in louisiana and mississippi. the heavy rains have also caused massive flood ago long the gulf coast including pearl river county, mississippi. our anderson cooper spoke with the director of the mississippi emergency management about that. >> is the water rising in pearl because rains are continuing there or some other reasons? >> yeah. i think what we got, i mean, some places in mississippi, we had 18 inches of rain. and on the gulf coast we had a storm surge of 10 to 12 in certain places. the water in the tributaries coming into the river and others brought enormous amount of water down. it caused a lot of the flooding. we have water in places in pearl river county that we never had before. >> isaac killed four people in louisiana and mississippi. among them, a couple who drowned when water from an overtopped dam rushed into their home. here's cnn's brian todd. >> reporter: it's still almost unapproachable and dangerous. we have to navigate around natural gas and p

the place is still a bit off balance after isaac. the french quarter is opened and bustling but then again it most always is. elsewhere in new orleans it really feels like the aftermath of a hurricane. a huge portion of this area is still without power including a lot of traffic lights, responsible for 38 traffic accidents as of this morning. >> 50,000 people have been evacuated from the parish. >> mayor landrieu has been going nonstop and knows this was a big test of all the new construction and they got more hurricane than anyone counted on. >> isaac proved once again whether it is a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 these storms are unpredictable and deadly and in some instances a category 1 storm for some people can be actually worse than what they went through during katrina. >> we met at the 17th street canal famous for what happened here seven years ago this week, visible from where we stood. >> this is actually pretty simple. >> yes. >> seven years ago today there was a hole where we see that patch in that levee, thus everything we see here i

we have the remnants of isaac still out to the west. you see the moisture spinning in ohio and the moisture also ts our way. mostly cloudy skies and some showers and thunderstorms south and east of us. going to switch it over to just the dopplers now. you can see we have the lightning going on in the bay, especially with this cell here toward annapolis. other showers south and southwest of town. everything moving north and east. so the stuff we're seeing east of i-95 moving into charles county, this is attacking that way. there's a very heavy cell, colonial beach, the northern neck, you're probably going to see this rain the next one to two hours. this cell is moving up this week but queenstown up to chester towntown, will have to worry about that in the immediate future. strong downpours in these thunderstorms and that's really going to be a problem in some spots. full forecast coming up in a few minutes. jc? >>> a suicide bomber attacked a u.s. government vehicle in pakistan today. two pakistanis were killed and more than a dozen othe

we can thank isaac for that. that moisture that's left over that brought the humidity up the east coast, southerly winds and southwesterly winds. for the most part you can see hit and miss rain over kentucky. the 48-hour rains have been impressive. 1 to 2 inches across much of the ohio valley. this is again a very dry region of the country so that's good. what's next in the tropics? this is probably the peak week of the hurricane season. we have tropical storm leslie. unfortunately this trough heading up to the coastline, off the coast i should say, is going to miss leslie. the storm is going to sit and linger off the eastern seaboard the next week. near bermuda next weekend. it will send large waves and rip currents, probably dangerous beach weather today through the next couple of days on the eastern sea board. be careful, swim near lifeguards, dodge those afternoon storms because of that humidity that will pop up this afternoon. that's a look at your national forecast. now the weather outside your window. we'l

the reason isaac is the brains of this is because isaac hit the gulf coast where the oil production isation's petroleum is located along the gulf coast. the refineries weren't damaged. the reason isaac is having an impact is because the refineries had to shut down during the storm. that knocked out hundreds of thousands of barrel production during the day. it is not just isaac. also there has been a deadly refinery fire in venezuela. there are fires happening in california. that shut down production, as well. that is sinking supply and driving up oil prices and driving gas prices higher. if less gas is on the market you are seeing gasoline prices go higher. >> we will keep you posted on when the prices might potentially get lower. >>> u.s. special operations forces have stopped training afghan police recruits. they are double checking their background information first. the move comes after nearly 40 nato troops were killed this year by afghan security members. the 16,000 police officers who are being revetted are still conducting operations. >>> the lawyer for a navy seal, a former na
