SUMMARY: Residents have been preparing for flooding in their homes for some time. In a recent incident, a man used a kayak to rescue his dog from his flooded house. Background sounds of generators indicate the severity of the situation. Many homes in the area are raised, so flooding primarily affects the basement and parking areas.

What is the Islamic State group and what attacks has it inspired?
SUMMARY: The FBI recovered an Islamic State (IS) flag from a Texas man’s truck after he killed 15 people in a New Orleans attack on New Year’s Eve. Investigations will explore any links between the driver, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, and IS, especially as he posted videos expressing admiration for the group shortly before the incident.
