right now with a lot of heavy snow and it is hard to move around. imagine a plane trying to gather speed for a takeoff there the other problem is this. we'll ask my photographer to pan out to the top of the ibm and trump tower. you have a low cloud ceiling you can't see the top of the trump tower in chicago. that low cloud ceiling means at a lot of airports, particularly o'hare, we have ground stops going on. that is major headache for any kind of traveler, until that lifts then you can't even move traffic in or out. if you can it moves really slowly. between the weather and cloud sealing it will be difficult for air traffic flowing midwest to east today. bill: big ripple effect out of o'hare too, our nation's second busiest. thank you, steve brown. it is late february in chicago. martha: all right. we've got breaking news just happening moments ago. we have learned that the president says he will meet with the four top congressional leaders on friday at the white house. they're going to talk of course about this sequester crunch.
