jetblue flight headed to boston. the investigation into this latest incident is under way. >> scary stuff. also this morning, severe weather has parts of the midwest and south waterlogged. flash floods in eastern arkansas. it forced residents in several towns to evacuate. problems in tennessee. roads in memphis were littered with cars stuck in three feet of water. in minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes has a lot more now. storms and heavy rains caused flood damages to the likes they have never seen before. indra petersons has more. are they out of the woods? >> that is what we are hoping for, but not the case. we have a huge upper low matching up with the jet stream. all this combining with the surface low. all the perfect elements are coming together and we have the threat for severe weather.

take a look at the moderate risk out there. the moderate risk, where you see the red is the enhanced risk or threat of tornadoes. we are talking 44 million of you talking about the threat of severe weather. same places we were talking about the flooding, could be talking more rain today and through tomorrow as the system stretches further to the east. we are looking at the threat of severe weather back down to paducah and nashville. this is here. it will be a major role over the next several days. heavy rain today and to the east by tomorrow. eventually, the middle of the week, to the north as well. the severe weather threat as far as the big thunderstorms. there's something else many of us are watching. a 60% chance now in the next two days we could have a tropical depression. this would be arthur. by the fourth of july, this is where models are bringing it. we could have a concern for rains affecting the plans over

the weekend. guys? >> that wouldn't be good timing, that would be bad. >> sorry. now the fight in iraq. the al qaeda group that seized much of northern syria has formerly declared the islamic state in the territory under its control. iraqi forces are battling isis to repapture the city of tikrit. any sense this is turning around? it sounds like 2005-2006 all over again. >> reporter: well, we are not quite there, yet. we are not going for many of those here in baghdad. we haven't seen the worst of the conflict. the battles are still raging. they cannot afford to seize

another major territory and for isis, as we are still calling them, they really need to show that they can get closer to baghdad. this is a pitch, pitch battle. for now, what we are hearing is consequence. nothing decisive on the ground. the hope for the iraqi army is delivery. it's not going to help them turn this. it's really in the air that they have demonstrated they have the upper hand, miguel. on the ground, for now, it is unclear who is winning the fight in tikrit. >> thank you very much. hang in there. breaking overnight, rescue crews rushing to save people on the sky tower in seaworld san diego. 42 people and two park employees spent four hours near the top of the ride on sunday. engineers say a power failure
