Transitioning to live as a woman. This morning, what his family and friends are saying about this major life change for an American Sports hero. And flying into the record books. Two hot air balloon pilots broke a world record with a trip that took them from japan to north america. Well tell you about their incredible journey, saturday, january 31, 2015. From nbc news this is a special edition of today at the super bowl, with lester holt and erica hill live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza, and al roker, live from phoenix, arizona. Good morning. Welcome to today on a saturday morning. Im lester holt. Im erica hill alongside dylan dwyer and were thrilled to have al roker here. Good morning. Thats right. All these fans came out. We are at super bowl central, and its been raining off and on for the last three days. I mean, they just over 300 days of sunshine, guys. Will they get sunshine for the super bowl . Well let you know coming up, but it is not dampening the enthusiasm of so many people out there. Its funny how that works, dylan. Yeah well have super bowl coverage throughout the hour but we begin with our top story. It will involve dylan eventually wearing down parkas again. Dylan is hiding under the desk. With good reason. Here we go again. Many cities already crippled bracing for round two. Some areas can see up to an additional foot of snow before its all said and done and dylan, take it away. First it starts with the cold. If you have been outside this morning you know the cold is out there. Temperatures are just so cold and especially when you factor in the windchill and we have got temperatures that are in the teens and 20s. 2 below in syracuse but it feels like in new york city its 5 below. So this cold air sets the stage for the next storm system moving in. Here it is. You can see some snow moving through areas Like Northern kansas into southern nebraska. This is going to eventually turn into a snowstorm for chicago. Indianapolis and cleveland and this is where we have the winter storm warning, since its later in the forecast period thats where we have the winter storm watch. Heres the timing into tonight. Omaha, nebraska seeing the snow. It moves into chicago, becomes heavy at times overnight into sunday morning. It starts to spread into buffalo, and erie pennsylvania. Sunday were watching this rain snow line. If this was a little further to the north not much of a snowstorm for new york city but further to the south we could be looking up to ten or more inches of snow for new york city. Things will change as we go through the next couple of days but chicago could see a foot of snow. That pink is the best chance of seeing a foot of snow and you can see its just to the north of new york city. Unfortunately, southern new england and into boston thats an area thats still digging out from two feet of snow and we could add another foot on top of that. All right. We have some hot tea for you before you head back over there. Keep it coming this morning. Thanks. Well despite some rain this week as al mentioned weather should hopefully not be much of an issue for the super bowl tomorrow. Our team in arizona is covering all the angles of the big game. Including this morning those efforts to avoid a second deflategate. Roger goodell is tackling that topic and more on friday. Nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander is in phoenix with the latest. Good morning. Reporter erica, good morning to you. This city is certainly ready and so the nfl right now. Barely 36 hours until they kick off in the super bowl and as spectacle as it is it wrapped up what the commissioner acknowledges has been a tough season. The latest challenge he noted, deflategate. Heres where things stand. Bothth teams have now handed over 54 footballs to be inspected and approved tomorrow before the game. But those balls right now are safely in the hands of the league. On the eve of americas biggest sports event, several days of unusually wet weather here in the arizona desert hasnt dampened the excitement of fans. Go hawks woohoo reporter but the league continues to deal with a storm of its own, deflategate which Roger Goodell said will be investigated fully. This is my responsibility to protect the integrity of the game. I represent 32 teams. All of us want to make sure that the rules are being followed. Reporter with a season dominated by offthefield headlines, goodell acknowledged its taken a toll. Its been a tough year on me personally. Its been a year of what i would say humility and learning. Reporter while the league has promised more security for the game balls on sunday, the two opposing coaches seated side by side friday steered clear of the controversy. And it was the seahawks coach pete carroll with the line of the day, when asked whether his star cornerback Richard Sherman could miss the super bowl because his girlfriend is expecting their first baby any day. If hes faced with that decision well support him. And well see how that goes. You know we wish him luck. Cant wait to see little petey. [ laughter ] reporter as players and coaches prepare, halftime performer katy perry is stoking excitement vowing an agame of her own. I think im probably the only person in super bowl halftime history that will ever bring both a lion and sharks to the show. Lions and sharks . Its going to be wild out there. And shes keeping america guessing. Just who is her surprise female performer . When this person enters the stage and when you hear the first ring of the chord, i think jaws will drop and faces will melt. Theres just going to be some melting. Reporter latest on that is it going to be madonna . Will it be Janet Jackson . Those names are all a part of the mix right now. But this morning, the latest speculation, some reports suggesting rapper Missy Elliott will join katy perry and Lenny Kravitz on the screen. Jaws dropping. Faces melting. Thats a lot to live up to. Thats a lot. Although Lenny Kravitz works for me in that department. I think were covered. Peter alexander, thanks. Arizona is more than just one of a dozen states with a Measles Outbreak. Some doctors are warning if folks havent been vaccinated they should stay away from the super bowl. Halle jackson is outside of the stadium. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning, lester. We are getting word this morning that this Measles Outbreak still a concern from coast to coast, with news that a student in new york boarded an amtrak train at penn station, one of the busiest strain stations in the country. Here in arizona at the super bowl, officials are monitoring any Public Health threats, so for for example, keeping an eye on any spikes in visits to urgent care centers. Thats pretty standard for any big event like the super bowl but may take on special importance given this latest outbreak. Today, thousands of people are arriving in phoenix for the countrys most watched game during a closely watched Measles Outbreak. About a thousand people are being monitored in arizona after they may have been exposed to the virus, and now with neighboring california reporting 12 new cases in just the last couple days, theres concern it could spread. I wouldnt take an infant less than 1 year old to the super bowl, or anywhere actually, where there was an outbreak of measles. Reporter unvaccinated people are almost certain to catch the contagious virus if they come into contact with it, and the cdc says people who are sick shouldnt travel. Much of the onus goes on the person who has measles. If you do have measles, you should probably stay home. Reporter arizona is one of 14 states seeing measles cases. Most linked to disneyland. Urijah krugers parents thought he caught it at the theme park. I had to be really strong for him. Like holding him close to me. On the other side im crying. Youre seeing the implications of people who are getting a vaccine and arent and what that looks like. Reporter but if you have been immunized and want to head to phoenix, doctors say game on. The cdc says it wouldnt expect a lot of unvaccinated people to be congregating here at the super bowl and that could partly be because of the demographic. Kids too young for the measles vaccine are most at risk and youre just not seeing a lot of infants here in glendale here this weekend. Lester . Halle jackson, thanks very much. A High School Student is suspected and accused of planting a sophisticated bomb in a school bathroom. The school in columbia tennessee, was evacuated friday morning after the bomb was discovered. A student stumbled on the device and saw it was attached to a digital counter that was counting down. Police requested that we partially blur this image of the bomb. The bomb squad destroyed the threat and the suspected student is facing felony charges. Tense negotiations for two hostages held by islamic radicals are deadlocked this morning.

We have sun from seattle right down into southern california. Foggy this morning but well lose that fog. Were focusing on the rain up into kansas. But on the northern side of that where its colder, thats where were looking at some snow eventually moving into chicago later on today. Windchills well down below freezing. Out in phoenix, arizona, it doesnt rain much out there, but al, little awkward to be tossing to you at this point. All backwards, but its raining where you are. Whats going on . [ cheers and applause ] all these students are from asu. First i thought they got up early, but the fact is they havent been to bed. [ laughter ] they dont really care about the forecast that much.

He played in the last super bowl appearance by the patriots but this morning, he is behind bars on trial for murder. Nbcs ron mott has more for us. Reporter erica, good morning. By any measure, Aaron Hernandez was on the way to greatness on the football field. Prosecutors back in massachusetts say he was on the way to trouble, and implicated in not one, but two murders. Second and a deuce. Over the middle. Touchdown, hernandez reporter at super bowl xlvi years ago, Aaron Hernandez helped the patriots build a lead. The one they would lose along with the game. Now with his former teammates are preparing for another chance of glory, the former tight ends downfall is playing out in the massachusetts courtroom. The evidence will show that Aaron Hernandez is an innocent man. Reporter on trial for the murder of a friend 27yearold odin lloyd. They drove to a secluded isolated area in north attleboro. There he shot his friend. Reporter hernandez grabbed attention in the nfl when the patriots awarded him with a 40 Million Contract in 2012. The same year where he gunned down two at a nightclub. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to all charges. His lawyer saying prosecutors in the current trial ignored evidence and zeroed in on hernandez from the start. The shock value certainly in new england and the country is amazing. Gangster in the huddle. Reporter the judge overseeing the trial says jurors can watch the super bowl tomorrow but hernandez is in prison and jurors are told to leave the room if his name is called. Now hernandez cannot watch the super bowl tomorrow. The jurors as you saw there can. We should mention that the touchdown you saw him catch at super bowl xlvi three years ago was the last one tossed by tom brady in a super bowl. Brady hopes to change that. Erica. Ron mott thanks.

Instead are you ready . Reporter crews roll out something greener. Ready, go. Reporter you have heard of a retractable roof . This is a retractable field. A turf surface that usually lives outside the stadium. It allows the field to be maintained out there in the bright heat of the arizona sun. Reporter but before game time the grass makes its move on a kind of tray. The only one like it in the country. In a game of inches thats how the field rolls in. A little at a time until 19 Million Pounds of turf is under the dome and under the close watch of groundskeepers. Really from every point here on, it goes down a notch. So we have to start rubbing on it and start paying attention to it. Reporter 92,000 square feet of grass meticulously maintained and babied until the big day. Field crews are brushing each blade of grass. Groundskeepers are really the only folks organizers want on the field. Everybody else has to stay behind this white line. They want to keep the turf as pristine as possible. Problem is that can be hard. This halftime show going to be crazy. Katy perry has a halftime performance to practice. They want a perfect show. We want a perfect field. So all of that has to be juggled and put together. Reporter its a compromise to keep the performers and players happy with the world watching. I mean it doesnt get any bigger than super bowl. All of the worlds eyes are on this facility. Its theres no better feeling. Reporter because for these guys its not about the plays on the field. Just whats growing on it. For today, halle jackson, glendale, arizona. And dylan has a final check of the weather for us. The rain out in glendale is going to stop in time for the game. So thats good. But we are looking at the chance of some more rain down through texas and oklahoma and down through kansas. We are looking at snow through nebraska moving into iowa. This is eventually going to move east and hit areas like chicago overnight. Southwest is in the 60s and 70s with fog on the east coast. High pressure is in control so its quiet for today. But very cold. We have windchills down below zero right now. Heres the bigger storm system it strengthens a bit. All rain to the south. Wherever this rain snow line lines up that will determine how much snowfall we will see. And in good saturday morning to you. Im meteorologist anthony slaughter. Waking up to clear skies across San Francisco bay. You can see the lights on the bridge. Eventually plenty of sunshine this morning. Notice, temperatures not that bad in the 40s and 50s across most of the bay area.

Jenners stepdaughter Kim Kardashian was asked how jenner was doing earlier this week on entertainment tonight. Of course we support bruce 100 .

Well, you know, after pats death, his wife marie went on to found the tillman scholarship, which helps military veterans and their families pursue higher education. One of the most recent recipients is ed woodward. He decided to leave his dream behind to fulfill his late brothers legacy. Nbc sports josh elliott has the story. Reporter in 2006 ed woodward was just five flights from graduating flight school. But shortly after a test flight in oregon he developed a blood clot in his brain. His recovery was an arduous one. But throughout, he insisted he would do anything to be allowed to fly. But the air force said the risk was too great. Thats when i realized that i had lost id never get to fly again. Reporter suddenly without purpose, ed felt hopelessly lost until the day his grandfather had an idea. And he said i dont know what to do. I dont know what i can do. He looked at me and he said, why dont you finish what jimmy started. Reporter finish what gene started. Thats a story that begins in the summer of 2000. On the day eds twin brother gene finished his first year of medical school. Ed and gene went out to celebrate. On the way home, their vehicle was struck by a drunk driver going 120 miles per hour. We flipped a couple times and spun. I couldnt get him out and i realized he was pinned. I just felt so weak and helpless. That day, that night. More than a decade after the crash, ed woodward was told hed never fly another mission in an f15, but then he looked to his twin brother and found a new way to serve. So there was a part of me that wanted to be like gene . Yeah, even today. The drive to go to med school. When i say i want to be a doctor for him, its because i want to live for both of us. What an amazing story. Josh elliott, thank you so much. Ed woodward and his wife amanda join us now. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you for having us. What a wonderful story.
