Quijano good evening, im Elaine Quijano. Tonight a strong storm is slamming parts of the northeast. But it is just a precursor of a onetwo punch that could impact millions of people over the thanksgiving holiday. Snow hammered parts of the ohio valley overnight. Now that snow is in new england where some areas could get up to eight inches. But this week two more systems will be moving in, threatening 250 million americans with rain, snow and ice. Jeff berardelli is tracking both systems, jeff, time this out for us. The timing couldnt be much worse. Its tuesday, its wednesday, huge travel days. Mainly the western and central parts of the country because of that big dip in the jet stream. Starts on monday night in denver with heavy snow moving in. Winds gusting over 40 miles an hour. Blizzard conditions pulling into the plains states towards minneapolis and green bay area. South of that, the good news is it is rain in chicago but its a big wind maker. Same thing in detroit so that will help a little bit. At least its not snow. Speaking of snow the heaviest snow from denver, omaha, minneapolis to green bay, since to twelve inches of snow, remember blizzard conditions at times because the wind field is huge, all the way down to texas, any flights out of the major hubs will have problem, chicago, detroit, minneapolis, buffalo, watch new york city on thursday morning, the parade, the kids will not be happy if the balloons are grounded, its certainly a possibility with gusts close to 35, 40 miles an hour. And then another storm slamming the west coast monday into tuesday, wednesday, we will see over two feet of powder. Great paradise for the skiers but this will be a nightmare for travelers.

Reporter earlier this month President Trump dismissed bloomberg as a serious challenger. Little michael will fail. Hell spend a lot of money. Hes got some really big issues. Sss got some personal problems and hes got a lot of other problems. Reporter bloomberg has faced accusations of sexist comments about women and last week at a Brooklyn Black church, bloomberg apologized for his support as new york mayor of a controversial stop and frisk policy that critics say targeted black and hispanic men. I want you to know that i realized back then i was wrong. And im sorry. Reporter and money alone may not be enough to help bloomberg surge to the stop of a still crowded democratic feed. I just dont think people are going to buy it, that you just put a bunch of money, and maybe the argument is hey, ive got more money than the guy in the white house. I dont think theyre going to buy that. Reporter before officially entering the race, nearly half of democrats surveyed in a november 17, cbs news Battleground Tracker said they wouldnt consider voting for bloomberg.

Reporter do you ever expect to get the 12 russian officials to trial . I would be surprised.
