Tonight, the new tornado threat rushing in as we come on the air.

Funnel clouds forming on the horizon, storm setting off tornado sirens in St. Louis

and the deadly flash flooding in Dallas, a rescue attempt turning dangerous when a first responders' boat flipped over.

Plus, the code red air quality alert as wildfires make air unhealthy to breathe.

Al Roker standing by tracking this dangerous situation tonight. Elon Musk demanding Congress

a tax break for electric vehicles was killed from that

big, beautiful spending bill? First, the surprise drone strike, then the high-stakes phone

call. President Trump saying Putin's warning he will respond to Ukraine, likely collapsing

peace talks. The takedown at JFK, a suspect arrested for allegedly helping in the bombing of

that Palm Springs fertility clinic, his fringe belief that federal officials say may have connected

him to the bomber. This just in the raid to take down two men who tried robbing a military base,

investigators saying they found a cache of weapons, including

a machine gun, silencers, plus Nazi and other white supremacist paraphernalia.

So what were they up to?

A major vacation alert tonight as summer ramps up, the record-breaking seaweed threat

coming to a beach near you. And midnight madness

over Switch 2, why these guys waited in line for weeks, intense, to be the first to get one. Nightly

Good evening.

Tonight as we come on the air, a second night in a row of severe weather hitting the Midwest.
