Caucuses one week away. Super bowl bound. Second touchdown of the half. 39yearold Peyton Manning against his rival tom brady, sending the Denver Broncos to the super bowl. Cam newton and the panthers devour the cardinals. Settle up the battle for the ages today, monday, january 25th, 2016. Welcome to my house announcer from nbc news, this is today with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in Rockefeller Plaza. Good morning. Welcome to today on a monday morning. The big clean up. Before we talk about the weather, super bowl 50 is going to be a good one in a couple weeks. Its going to be a great one. Around and watch football because everybody was snowed in. This is the first nonelastic waistband ive had on all weekend. It demanded where you lived on the east coast. An hour apart from one another, you got basically nothing where you live upstate. And we got two feet where i live. Crazy weekend. Yeah. Our top story, the recordsetting blizzard. Effects of the storm, far reaching from the carolinas to new england. We have it covered from every angle, beginning with al roker, who is in snowy central park for us. Al, good morning to you. Good morning, guys. Thats right. This storm lived up to its potential and even exceeded it. In fact, we had to up our amounts as the storm bore down on the northeast because it was moving a little further north. It really got itself together and sat and just dumped on the city. 26. 8 inches here officially at central park. Missing the alltime record snowfall by 1 10th of an inch. Just goose it a little bit and get us the record, but it didnt happen. Right now though, the northeast is crippled and digging out. Look at the statistics. Washington, d. C. , hardhit, they are looking at federal offices closed in washington, d. C. , as are the schools. Also closed in philadelphia and in baltimore, as well. We also see the National Guard deployed in 12 states. They will be working nonstop for days at a time. We are also expecting to see more flight delays. 1,300 Flight Cancellations today alone. A real mess at the airports. Pack your patience and make sure you check your app before you go. The other deal is the dig out. People will be digging out up and down the northeast. You went to bed hearing plows and shovels scraping and youll hear them again today. Weve got, perhaps, as you look right now, what a beautiful sight. Its always the case after a big blizzard. However, weve got another possibility of a noreaster coming, as youre looking live at the big dig out. Lets show you what were expecting. A system is going to be developing down along the florida coast. Then its going to start to make its way up the coast wednesday on into thursday. Then sometime early friday. The models all disagree. Is it cold enough to snow, and how much will this be able to produce . Were going to continue to track it. Want to give you some fair warning. This is what we see when we have an el nino winter. Active southern jet stream really starts overproducing. Well have more details on this coming up in a little bit. Guys, pack your patience, make sure you have your shovels ready and a little more ice melt. I dont think im emotionally prepared for another storm, al. Well check in with you in a little bit. Crews have been working 24 7 up and down the east coast to clear away all that snow. As we said, many towns decided to keep schools and businesses closed today. Not here in new york city. Dylan dreyer is with us now. Shes in queens this morning. Good morning. Good morning, savannah. This historic blizzard hit over the weekend but its anything but business as usual on this monday morning. Washington, d. C. Is shut down. Schools are closed up and down the midatlantic. In new york, the city is up and running with the Public Transportation restored, but in the surrounding neighborhoods, cars are still buried. Some have been stuck in the middle of the street for days. While this area is being told to go back to work, for some, its proving impossible to get there. Reporter this morning, the big dig is underway across the east coast. This weekends blizzard covering eight states with more than two feet of snow. Closing roads, cancelling flights and burying cars in a matter of hours. This is probably the worst of it, driving north from washington, d. C. To new york city. In pennsylvania, dozens of tractor trailers were stuck on the turnpike. In new jersey, record flooding along the shore. A storm so severe, 30 people suffered weatherrelated deaths. Today, new york city is getting back to business after the second largest snowfall total in the citys history. 26. 8 inches in central park. This morning, Public Schools are open, metro north Train Services running, and the subway system, which operated throughout the storm, is now returning to full strength. While the blizzard kept many indoors the last few days, others decided to brave the elements, with no amount of snow keeping some kids, parents or pets from enjoying the fresh powder. But now, after one of the biggest storms in history, a new week begins as millions of people try to clear mountains of snow and return to normal. Now in new york, mayor bill their car buried, leave it there the next week. But aaa has tips to keep you safe. Get all the snow off your car. The hood, the roof, the taillights, and also the head lights, of course. You also want to make sure you dig out your tailpipe, even if your car is idling, to prevent Carbon Monoxide poisoning. I want to point out the snow drifts. Some of the snow banks are taller than the children that are out and about. Watch for children, and its going to be an issue as this snow is not going to melt until temperatures get above freezing. That could take a while. Matt and savannah . Good tips. Thank you. The airlines trying to get back on track. Starting today after more than 12,000 weekend flights were cancelled. This morning, were already seeing new cancellations and new delays. Tom costello covers aviation for us. Hes ataguardia here in new york for us. Good morning. Itll be slow on the rebound. A herculean effort to get the look at the video from washington, reagan and where theyve been working around the clock. Look tatat the photograph from new york city, where theyve been using a jet engine to blow the snow away. We already have 1,200 cancellations today. 137 for tomorrow. Were seeing delays, as youd expect. The airports most effective, laguardia, jfk, and baltimore, and charlotte and as far north as boston. To the west, chicago. The number you cited, 12,000 Flight Cancellations since friday. The number could grow again today over the weekend. 3,100 flights cancelled on friday. 4,500 on saturday. 3,500 cancelled on sunday. Check out the screen shot from saturday night, when it shows airports in the new york city area, philly, d. C. , all closed. Planes in the air space. Some of the busiest air space in the country. Its often a sea of yellow with planes up there in the air. Also, if youre on amtrak today or trying to get anywhere on amtrak, that train schedule is operating on a modified schedule today. Be prepared to have your patience with you. Well have more on the next hour. Back to you. Not a good day to go anywhere. Thanks very much. As we said, the aftermath of the storm will be felt in washington for days. Federal offices and schools closed there again today. Lets go to our National Correspondent Miguel Almaguer who is there this morning. Good morning. Savannah, good morning. Fair to say washington, d. C. Is shut down, but its probably more accurate to say this city is crippled. We saw two feet, nearly two feet of snow here in the Nations Capital. I want to show you what it looks like this morning. In some spots, its thick. It can be knee deep, even deeper than that in some spots. Across this city. For the last couple hours, weve seen plows working overdrive to clear city streets. Not enough is being done fast enough. Theyve shut down the federal government here. All Public Schools in the area are also shut down today. Its going to be a nightmare for folks who are out on the road. The city officials are asking everyone who can stay home to do so. Chair expecting the morning commute to move at a snails pace here. Theyre hoping with all the Government Shutdown here, itll make the roads easier, but its going to be a mess. Miguel, of course, well continue to follown t that later eoplon injured on an American Airlines flight. It was from miami to milan. That plane hit severe turbulence. Tamron has more on that story. The injured included passengers and crew. They were sent to a nearby hospital. That flight diverted to canada, shaken up after their ordeal. Reporter terror in the sky. Glad to be on the ground. Intense. Reporter this morning, 192 passengers heading from miami to milan are not waking up in their final destination. American Airlines Flight 206 was hours into the flight when it hit severe turbulence. The plane actually dropped. Rolled on its side and everything went flying, and people and, yeah, it was pretty intense. Reporter while the seat belt light was on during the turbulence, passengers say flight attendants were standing in the cabin. After injuries were reported, the flight diverted to canada. Im happy to be alive. You know, it was scary. Emergency response vehicles. Its a standard procedure, theyll be following you in. Reporter paramedics and up to half a dozen ambulances were on the tarmac to evaluate passengers and crew. According to American Airlines, passengers were transported to a local hospital for evaluation. A bump in the trip. Should be at milan at this point, but were here. Reporter many try to see the bright side. Im glad to be in new finland. Always wanted to come here. Not under these circumstances. Now, the extent of the injuries have not been revealed, but another passenger believes they range from a concussion to a shoulder injury. American Airlines Spokesperson said theyre working to recrew the aircraft. The flight is scheduled to take off later today. Obviously, frightening moments. That had nothing, really, to do with the blizzard that were talking about. Good reminder to wear the seat belt. Absolutely. Tamron, thank you. Lets move to politics and the president ial race. The Iowa Caucuses one week from today, the candidates are making a final push in the hawkeye state. Theres buzz about somebody who isnt yet in the race. Michael bloomberg, the york, contemplating a run of his own. Lets start with nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander. Good morning. Hi, savannah. Good monday morning to you. Michael bloomberg willing to spend at least 1 billion of his own money if he dives in. If floating this idea of a run was designed to intimidate opponents, that hasnt happened. Donald trump touting a wide lead in iowa, hes unfazed. Bernie sanders says, bring it on. Reporter could it be the battle of the multibillionaires . Donald trump says hed welcome a Michael Bloomberg bid. Id love to have him come in because i love the competition, frankly. Id love bloomberg to come in. Reporter with aides drawing up a plan, its likely the former new york city mayor would only run if the general election matched trump or cruz against Bernie Sanders. Hillary clinton is vowing that wont be necessary. Ill relieve him of that and have to. Reporter analysts warn getting in comes with no guarantees, especially with a candidate close to wall street, one of the nations leading voices for strict gun control. Rand paul mocked the idea. Another liberal billionaire from new york city . I think that slot is taken. Fortifying his lead just one week until iowa, trump may think hes almost untouchable. Imagine any other candidate saying this to praise his supporters loyalty. I could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody, and i wouldnt lose any voters. Reporter later, brushing off criticism. I have greater loyalty from voters than any other candidates, double, triple, quadruple. I love my people. Reporter plenty of love to go around. The des moines registers endorsement to clinton and marco rubio. Snl embracing a campaign thats already offered a lot. Push a stroller, pro bowler shes a firecracker. Shes a real pistol. Shes crazy, isnt she . That,ca, ca, ca. It was a fun snl this weekend. A source close to bloomberg says hes given himself an early decision. Bloomberg would like to be president but doesnt like to lose and doesnt like to go on all right, peter, thank you. Msnbc political analyst Nicolle Wallace served as anned avieder to thehe Mccain Palin Campaign and Steve Kornacki is an msnbc host and correspondent. So tempting to ask you about the tina fey impersonation. Miamile bloomberg floating this trial balloon. My understanding is only if the partiesir lack to nominate. Could you see a Third Party Candidate and its not a Suicide Mission . But you have to be willing to engage in hopeless endeavors if you want to run for president. If hes a domino, he needs two other dominos to fall first. If bloomberg will get in, he needs cruz to be the republican nominee. Thats the other thing that frees up and makes available enough right m leaning voters and he needs Bernie Sanders to prevail to find a lane to be able to add up enough potential voters to come his way. It seems as if hes relying on anger. Weve talked so much about anger on the right and anger on the left. Hes hoping or calculating that if those two people get the nomination, that nicole just talked about, there will be enough anger in the center to possibly give him a path to the white house. Yes. I think in all honesty when you look at this, the key is Hillary Clinton. Ifry Hillary Clinton doesnt win the democratic nomination, realistically that 0s up more voters for him. He would need a trump or cruz on the republican side. When you start to look at the potential bloombergwh voter, more likely to come from the democratic side than the republican side. He has a billion r, dollars, nicole. That would make him an immediate contender if he decided to get in. Sure. How crazy. He wouldnt be the only billionaire in the race. In an otherwise normal year, that would give him an advantage and let him say im not going to go out and fund raise. So scale of one to ten, ten is hell absolutely do it if those two people are nominated, one is theres no way, where do you stand. I i think theres no way cruz and sanders prevail. With that being the calculus you say the situation doesnt present itself. If it presents itself id give it a seven or eight. Thats cheating. All right. I saw lawyerly rigeling over there. Thank you very much. Were taking the show to iowa. Talking to the candidates and caucuses. Now to a massive manhunt for and dangerous who pull off a daring escape from a maximum security jail in Southern California. Grainy Surveillance Video recorded before sunrise on friday shows the very moment the three prisoners made that escape. Authorities say they cut through steel bars, went to the roof of the jail, then repelled down the wall using sheets. It was 16 hours before the guards realize they were missing. The fbi and u. S. Marshal service have now joined the search. The stage is set. The Carolina Panthers face the Denver Broncos in super bowl 50. Lets start with the nfc championship game. B carolina taking on the Arizona Cardinals in charlotte. Panthers quarterback cam newton ran for two touchdowns, threw for two more, including an 86yard strike. Carolina went on to win it, 4915. In the afc championship game it was the rematch everyone was talking g about. The broncos and the patriots. Manning struck first on this td pass to owen daniels. Denver led the whole way. In the fourth quarter, the patriots got within two points on a gronkowski touchdown, 13 seconds to go. New england needed a twopoint conversion to tie. It was intercepted. Then broncos win it, 2018. Theyll meet carolina, super bowl 50 on february 7th. The last two minutes of the patriots broncos game, super bowl worthy. Lets go to mr. Roker. Hes in snowy central park. I am. Thanks, guys. Lets show you whats happening around theda rest of the country today. We are look at a fairly quiet day,y, thankfully. Beautiful out west, no rain. Everything quiet. We have a clipper coming across, bringing snow in southern minnesota, parts of wisconsin, rain into the upper midwest. Sunny skies along the coast here. Temperatures fairly seasonal. No big problems. Thats okay. The e country. Well get to whats happening in your neck of the woods right after the next 30 seconds. For years to come. How can you help . By giving a little more, to yourself. I am running for my future. People sometimes forget to help themselves. The cause is retirement, and today thousands of people came to race for retirement and pledge to save an additional one percent of their income. If we all do that we can all win. Prudential thats your latest weather. Guys, my wife just texted me and asked, is that a chipmunk on your head . I said, no, its a squirrel and ferret ferret. Function over anything else on a day like today, al. You bet. More on the aftermath of the storm as the entire east coast looks to dig out.

If you woke up with the wagners earlier, you saw the accident closing the ramp with the traffic making that turn. That will free up the traffic on corridor, i15 looking good at sahara, no problem and the overall travel times, looking pretty good except for 15 southbound which is slow just like we expect but the earlier accident, cleared, dana. Thank you for that. In the meantime, metro still cannot identify the man they say was waving a gun around on the Las Vegas Strip friday night. They released this picture to the media hoping that someone will recognize this man. The allegations are that this man had a gun on the strip weaving in and out of traffic on foot on friday night right in front of the fountain show. At one point, you can even hear a few shots fired not by the man but by metro officers who showed up on the scene. Metro fired at the man after he refused to drop the gun. They did strike a couple passerbiers grazing them, no one seriously hurt in this and if call Crime Stoppers at small town world, i love the country girl back at 7 30, monday morning, january 25th, 2016, and its a pretty one, despite the fact that so many people are digging out this morning on the east coast. A massive storm blew through over the weekend, well have the latest on it coming up in a couple. On friday, well do a segment on how to shovel properly without hurting your back. I watched it. Maybe i didnt watch it well enough. I take away that you watch absolutely. Impressive. The headlines today. The first votes in the president ial race will be cast in iowa a week from today. Donald trump leads ted cruz on the republican side. Democrats clinton and sanders are neck and neck. Adding drama to the campaign now, former new york city mayor Michael Bloomberg is considering the general election matches sanders. Trump and clinton weighing in. Im going to relieve him of that and get the nomination, so he doesnt have to. Id love to have him come in because i love the competition, frankly. Id love bloomberg to come in. Other news, police in Southern California trying to track down three inmates who escaped a maximum security jail. They used tools to cut through 1 2 inch steel bars before getting to the roof and repelling down. This was a well thought out and planned escape. It could have taken them weeks or even months to prepare. Now authorities are offering 50,000 for information leading to the escapees arrests. A tragic story out of North Carolina tied to this weekends storm. 26yearold jefferson heavner, a single father, helped a driver who spun out on the road. The driver, who appeared to be under the influence, got out of him. The 27yearold marvin lee is charged with murder. Lets get to more on the aftermath of the blizzard. Now, it also caused record flooding. Lets check in though with dylan in hardhit queens this morning. Good morning to you. Good morning. This area is trying to get back up and running after what was a historic blizzard. It was hardest hit on saturday, and the storm is deadly now. Its claimed the lives of 30 people. This storm produced massive flooding up and down the new jersey coastline. Some reported to be worse than what it was during super storm sandy. We had record snowfall in some areas. New york city, we fell 1 10 inch shy of the alltime record. I drove through the storm from roanoke, virginia, to washington, d. C. And new york city, driving along horrendous roads. We didnt make it to new york kicked in at 2 30. They allowed us through the lincoln tunnel. Were no cars on the road and people just Walking Around in the blizzard conditions. Nothing that can shut down new york city. In the outer boroughs of new york, we have cars buried in the snow. Trying to get here, we couldnt get through some of the roads because they were blocked with cars that were stuck. They had been stuck since the storm started. Schools are back up and running in this area. Kids are waiting for the busses. I want to point out, a lot of times, the kids are shorter than the snow banks and the piles on the side of the road. Its going to be a concern going through the whole week. You need to watch out for kids as youre trying to make the turns. Even though the snow has stopped, there are threats going forward. Definitely, thank you. As we mentioned, another problem caused by the storm, costal flooding. In parts of new jersey, roads turned into rivers, prompting evacuations and rescues. Jacob rascon is in west how does it look this morning . Finally hundreds of people whose homes were surrounded by water are able to return home. But many will return to incredible damage. At this home, three docks floated hundreds of feet from where they were and landed in the driveway. From above, you can tell the seawall, now mangled, which was supposed to protect west wildwood, simply caved the town of about 800 homes. It was mostly underwater. At its peak, the water was five, six feet high. We got a tour through the damage with a humvee, the only way to get around. The flooding was worse in the southern portion of the jersey shore. The north was largely spared. The governor, chris christie, is back on the campaign trail, but the Lieutenant Governor will be out later today to survey the damage. Matt . Jacob, thank you very much. Lets turn to al and his hat, which are a few blocks away hey, guys. Folks are out, all getting about their business. Of course, no cars on the park drive this morning. As we break the storm down state by state, well give you some of these incredible numbers. Top snowfall totals. West virginia, 42 inches. 39 in virginia. 38 in maryland. New york city, 31. 3. Alltime snowstorms for allentown, pennsylvania, jfk, harrisburg, pa, bwi airport. This is how much snow we got. For at least four cities, theyve picked up their seasonal snowfall and more in this one storm. Now, are we looking at another noreaster . Heres the deal, lets show you exactly what we see. On a normal year, you would see the pacific jet stream and the subtropical jet stream. Thats normally what you get. But in an el nino year, heres the pacific jet and the tropical jet stream all merge, becomes much stronger, and then as it cuts across, it brings more storms. Heres what were looking for. Wednesday, we have a low pressure system developing along the gulf. It brings heavy rain to florida. Then it starts to make its way up the coast thursday and friday. The models are not converging yet. Some keep it a little further offshore, but some keep it closer to shore. If the air is cold enough, we could be looking at another potential noreaster. Were going to continue to track that. Nothing to give you definitely yet, but want to keep you updated, that we may have that potential. Thats whats going on around the country. Neck of the woods. Good news is, if we get another noreaster, its good to know i can give matt 5 to do my walk. No, im done with the shoveling business, al. Hes retired. I am out. Well talk to you guys in a while. A new documentary that has hollywood and people in washington talking, as well. It focuses on the scandal that took down former congressman Anthony Weiner and his later run for mayor of new york. Erica hill has more on that. Good morning. Good morning. This film premiered over the weekend at the sundance film festival. While the filmmakers arent making clips available to the public, it has people talking and speculating about whether this film may impact the 2016 president ial race. Reporter the documentary, attempted comeback. Mayor of the city of new york. Reporter this after the infamous 2011 sexting scandal forced his recognition. The filmmakers say it was more a statement on the political process and the media. It was about showing what its like to be in the center of a media firestorm. Reporter the film covers weiners failed Mayoral Campaign and the turns it took, including strategy sessions to deal with a new sexting issue, and the reactions of his Campaign Staff when the photos came to light. Initial feedback to the documentary has been positive. Film critic scott mantz said it was riveting, saying it was also the wifes story. She says little in the film and appears keenly aware of the camera. Nbc news reached out to weiner, who said recently he has not seen the film. Referred us to a recent radio interview with alan colmes. Tough thing to have documented, but you know, look, i own the mistakes that i made. I think its duplicitous to make it about my wife. She wasnt interviewed for the movie. Reporter there is only one reference to the former secretary of state in the documentary. The timing of the films release has lead some to ask whether out scenes pertaining to their relationship. We were under no pressure. Were excited to be here, to weve been working on it for a long time and are excited for everyone to see it. Its not in theaters until showtime will show it in october, just before the general election. Going to be an interesting one. Invited cameras in to document what he thought would be his comeback. And things changed once there was this scandal. Erica, thanks very much. Secretary Donald Rumsfeld opens up about his legacy, the threat of isis and the president ial race. Thats right after this.

Donald rumsfeld served as a congressman early in his career and worked for several president s over four decades. Most recently, as secretary of defense for president george w. Bush. Now hes trying something its a new Business Venture were going to talk to him about in our next half hour. First, secretary rumsfeld, good to have you in new york. Rare opportunity to talk to you. Nice to see you. Thank you. Good to be here. If i told you 20 years ago that in 2016, donald trump was going to be the frontrunner on the republican side of a president ial campaign, what would you have thought . It was out of the question. Its just amazing, this election year. Its so different from most, if not all, of the earlier ones ive experienced. As you watch whats unfolding as a conservative republican, do you see donald trump as someone who can unite and broaden the party, or do you see someone who is going to divide the party . I see someone who has touched a nerve in our country. Hes caused people to respond in a way that most politicians have not been able to do. Donald trump are able to draw 10,000, 15,000, 30,000 people to hear them speak says theres something going on in our country that theyre appealing to in a very interesting, unusual way. In your role as secretary of defense, you dealt with president george w. Bush in his role as commander in chief. You know what that side of the job entails. Given what challenges face our military forces all around the globe today, would you be comfortable with donald trump or Bernie Sanders as commander in chief . Goodness. Thats the kind of thing you want to get used to. Youd have to think through. You know, our system is amazing. It causes the American People, hundreds of millions of human beings, to watch these people run around the track, and then make a judgment about them. Whats happening is, people are having a chance to look at a very deep, broad field of much more modest field of democratic candidates, and make a judgment about it. With all due respect, you dodged it. Can you see donald trump, you personally, as commander in chief . Can i see the person that gets elected by the American People serve as president of the United States . Well, my goodness, weve been doing that for so many years, you bet. Youre still good at this. No question about it. Let me ask you about another candidate, jeb bush. An extremely qualified candidate. Cant get any traction. You know all about the bush family. Why is that . I dont know. I suppose theres people who are uncomfortable with the dynasty. Democrat side or the republican side. On the other hand, i think people are persuaded by someone who is capable of talking and thinking on their feet. And they compare the various candidates, 14, 15, 16 republican candidates, and theyre making judgments about likely to be able to handle a difficult president ial campaign against the other party. I mentioned the bush family. I have to ask you about a recent book, a biography authorized on 41, george h. W. Bush. He had things to say about you and your time as secretary of defense for his son. He said, quote, i think he served the president badly. I dont like what he did and i think it hurt the president , having his ironass view of everything. Theres a lack of humility. A lack of seeing what the other guy thinks. Were you surprised by those comments . No, we were never close. He was to the manner born and i wasnt. We were never close, so i guess it didnt surprise me. Let me ask you i was amazed that he said because i didnt think it was very complimentary of his son, george w. Bush, and i didnt think it was very helpful to his other son who was running for president. I thought it was kind of a strange thing for him to be doing. Let me ask you about isis. So much debate about how to defeat them. President obama thinks he can defeat or we can defeat isis without large numbers of u. S. Boots on the ground. Do you agree . Oh, you know, i dont agree or disagree. It seems to me that if you want to hold real estate and eliminate somebody from holding real estate, that requires pele oopgrd, what were dealing with here is a fdamentally different kind of opponent and enemy. Its going to take many, many years to deal with that problem in the world. Quickly, if you were secretary of defense right now, would you recommend to the president that he put u. S. Boots im not secretary of defense. With people and look at it. It seems to me, that is only a part of the problem. If you dont know where youre going, any road will get you there. This president clearly has not made a decision with respect to what the nature of the problem is were facing or how it ought to be dealt with. Former secretary of defense Donald Rumsfeld.

We started the morning with a rough note with serious accidents, but now, things have cleared up and this is the rainbow and summerlin interchange and the standard delay in the spaghetti bowl, southbound 15 and checking the travel times, thats the only place we see yellow with southbound coming from summerlin parkway, no big deal and henderson, looking good, as well. Metro has not identified the man they said was waving around a gun on the Las Vegas Strip on friday night. That is the face of the man. Theyre still calling him john doe, and the allegation is he was waving a gun in front of the bellagio fountain show. And you can hear a couple gunshots, not from the man, but from metro officers, who said he refused to drop his gun, weaving in and out of traffic with the gun. They did fire at him when he refused to drop it. Metro did not hit the man but hit a couple bystander, just grazed them. They are just fine. If you know anything, call Crime Stoppers at 3855555. Meanwhile, when you wake up with the wagners tomorrow morning, our exclusive report from Consumer Reports. Theyre testing out the fitbit fitness trackers. Center of the a its 8 00 on today. Coming up, zigdigging out and cleaning up millions up and down the east coast trying to get back to normal after a historic snowstorm dropped two feet of snow on eight different states. What you can expect this morning if youre hitting the roads, rails or the airport. And then coping with a cold, which remedies actually help and which ones dont . Well separate fact from fiction. And kung fu kate. Look away, look awaityaway. Kate hudson embraces her wild side and shell tell us all about it when she stops by 2016. Were from savannah, georgia and we survived the blizzard. I want to say hi to our kids. We love you so much last day of vacation on today. On this monday morning, it is the 25th day of january, 2016. Its the monday after the big storm that blanketed much of the east coast. Up to two feet of snow. As usual, the folks here at Rockefeller Plaza have taken care of it all. Look at this. Thats not a drop of snow. Looks beautiful. Al is back from central park, and ive adopted your hat. Im going to call her fifi. Okay. Its adorable. Looks better on you than me. No, no. Lets get to the top story, the weather. The fallout and cleanup from the big blizzard of 2016. York but close in washington, d. C. Along with the federal government. You dont have to live here in the east to be impacted by the storm. The airlines are dealing with a huge backlog of cancelled flights. Nbcs tom costello is at laguardia airport, not far from here. Tom, good morning again. Reporter good morning. Let me give you the latest from here. Laguardia looking at a quarter of its flights cancelled today. Newark, new jersey, 35 . Washington dulles, 40 cancelled today as they continue to unwind or rather try to get back up and running after all of these cancellations over the last few days. Systemwide, 1,300 canceled today. That number will rise, 140 already canceled for tomorrow. Since friday, nationwide, weve now had 12,600 flights cancelled since friday. I was stuck in l. A. Over the weekend. I managed to catch one of the arriving at about 10 30 or 11 00 it truly was about the only flight coming in at that hour into jfk. This is going to take some time to unwind as we mentioned. Because we have the ripple effect. Its not just the east coast, of course, its also all of the airports nationwide that are affected. When youve got so many planes out of position, so many passengers who missed their flights over the last few dawes and all of air crews, the flight attendants, the pilots, all of them in the wrong city, out of position, you can imagine this will now take the airlines days to recover from to get their people back into position, get the planes on the right tarmac in the right city and get back up and running on the right schedule. Its entirely possible well continue to see planes recovering and the schedules trying to come together for the rest of the week. One last note. Amtrak, modified schedule today because theyve had so much snow on the tracks they had to blow out of the way. Theyre up and running on the schedules. Back to you. Tom, good information as always. I translate it to stay home in your pjs if you can. The Nations Capital remains paralyzed by the storm. Miguel almaguer is there. Good morning. Reporter savannah, good morning. The federal government is shut down. D. C. Is crippled. I want to show you the reason why. Nearly two feet of snow has fallen in this area. They were expecting it, but its still a mess. This morning across the east coast, in more than a dozen states, this is the big dig. Still daunting, mainly because i have no idea what im doing. Reporter in cities like washington, d. C. , its just a major headache. We will see continued slick and dangerous roadways. Reporter today in the Nations Capital, the federal government is shut down again. Part of the reason why, the streets are sloppy. A struggle to get public and the road. For some, a fight just to get out the front door. Im going to be out here for a lot longer than i thought i would be. Reporter it was a storm for the history books. This is pennsylvania over 24 hours. A single day record, nearly 27 inches in central park. In virginia, some cant see daylight out of their windows. Our second floor window is completely covered in snow. Reporter the National Guard deployed in 12 states. At least 30 have died. Roofs have collapsed. Power is still out. Theres so much snow on the road, even First Responders are struggling and stuck. We made it this far in the snow. We actually couldnt make it any farther. Reporter for some, the mystery is more magical. Snowboarding on the national mall, and sledding in a cardboard box. For others, one to forget. With the federal government shut down and schools also closed all across this region, many wont have to go to work but theyre going to have a big job ahead of them. Theyre going to have to dig out. Were told that could take days. Thanks. So pretty behind you. Beautiful. Tamron is in for natalie this morning. Lets get a check of the other top stories. Take it away. Good morning. After months of campaigning, the president ial candidates are talking about a possible late comer to the race. Former new york city mayor Michael Bloomberg. Nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander has more on the reaction. Peter, good morning. Tamron, good morning. Were told the former new york city mayor plans to make a decision one way or the other by early march. Hes 73 years old, a billionaire, of course. Michael bloomberg would likely launch that independent bid if the general election looks like its donald trump for ted cruz for the republicans against Bernie Sanders. Bloomberg is out. Clinton dismissing the whole idea. She insists shell get the nomination and put this conversation to bed. Still, both trump and sanders are embracing it. Trump says, i love the competition. Just out this morning, a new online poll says bloombergs entrance into the race would do the following, create a dead heat between trump and sanders, 35 to 34 while bloomberg would lag in the teens. Back to you, tamron. Thank you very much. A scandal over possible match fixing and gambling is casting a shadow over this years australian open. Nbc chief global correspondent bill neely is following the story for us from london. Good morning to you. Good morning, tamron. This was a game that normally would attract little or no attention. It was a first run, mixed doubles match between lowranked players. This is the game. The player youll see in the red and yellow shirt is the spaniard david marrero. He made a lot of errors. Double faults, soft lobs and so on. He and his partner lost the well, nothing strange, you might think. Except huge amounts of money were wagered on two gambling websites that the couple would lose, and they did. 60, 63. He said he had a knee injury. The betting was so unusual, all four players were interviewed by officials. All denied throwing the game. Its possible someone may have simply learned marrero had an injury and gambled on that. Huge amounts were placed by a small number of people, and its not the first time marrero has attracted suspicious betting. Tennis is under a cloud right now of corruption with those reports last week alleging match fixing by 16 players over the past decade. Half of them apparently competing at this same tournament, the australian open. Its one of the worlds most prestigious grand slam events. Its continue but this isnt good for the game. If theyre innocent, its not good for those spanish players either. Tamron . Bill, tennis fans everywhere thank you very much. The magical side of a heavy snowfall is the way it brings out little kids or brings out the kid in grownups, i should say. These Police Officers, this is in washington, d. C. , could not resist joining a pickup game of football. One officer catches the ball but knocked down the defender. He went beast mode before rumbling down the street to score. Look at it again. Here we go. This is rule number one, why you respect the law. Boom. All right. Back to matt and savannah. Fun for the officer, not so fun for the opponent there. Tamron, thank you. Coming up next, more of the most talked about moments of the storm. How the blizzard of 2016 played out on social media. Oh, wow. Wow is right. On pop start, a shaq surprise .

Number one. Number one . Absolutely. Ive never sledded. I grew up in texas. Grew up in california, same thing. Did you get a block of ice and go down . No. Okay, lets move on. There is an article on yahoo called why kids never sled alone anymore. It got me thinking, apparently the way they used to. This day, its about highly controlled and supervised activities. 30 years ago when we were growing up in this area, the snow would end, or wouldnt end, and youd go out with your sleds, and youd be gone all day. No parents, just kids. My kids are doing that now. You dont go with them . I supervise but i dont grab the thatsled. But youre there . Right. In sight. Everything today seems more dangerous, so parents take on a more supervised role. Did your kids sled this weekend . They didnt because theyre suffering from colds. I was going to say. If they did, would you watch them . We dont have a slope close enough for them to walk to, like i could walk when i was a kid. With all due respect we went over cedar hill. Parental supervision. Exactly. We both went, so it was good. We asked people on twitter if alone. 70 said they would not let their kids go sledding by themselves. Too bad. We understand that. Do you find yourself getting through a tough week at work or a hard time in your life, youre stressed out and only at the end do you get a cold or flu . You get sick after it. Never happened to me. I grew up in arizona. Super great. Like to hear more about your growing up in arizona. Turns out, this is not a fluke. Theres real Science Behind it. They call it the letdown effect. Apparently when your body is under pressure, the stress hormones actually kick in and they help protect you against sickness. When youre not under the stress, the hormone levels get back to normal. Then your body is like, remember what we went through . And you get sick. I notice it on vacation. You get sick the minute youre on vacation. Makes sense. Look at this footage that will take your breath away. Collinson. She was skiing in alaska when she tumbled down the mountain, about 1,000 feet. When she came to a stop, is it angel, she was quick to say she was okay. Her only injuries, two jammed fingers. What . The video was shot last spring, being released now as part of a safety campaign. Incredible. Parents were there with her, they could have protected her. Never would have happened. Now people who wanted to roll around in the snow. These kids suited up in just their bathing suits and marched to their starting positions. Dove into the snow head first. Realized, maybe not the best choice. Oh, my gosh. Tell me about the shrinkage. Never gets old. Videos everywhere. I saw a lot of these videos on twitter. She goes under. I saw the one where the girl disappears in the snow and then comes up. You see her feet dangling up. Oh, my gosh. What does that do to ones body . We just heard what i did. How the stars handled the storm. Tina fey, thank you for coming back to snl. Carson has that. Okay. Well, 26 inches of snow trying to explain this grabbed between. Of course, guys, some of the stars had to get in on the wintry action. Hugh jackman shared this on instagram with a caption, what to do after the blizzard of 2016. Jerry seinfelds wife shared this picture. Jessica seinfeld and jerry took a stroll through central park. Fashionable. One reporter stopped a giving a shoutout to his grandson. Stuck here for a little while. Youre not flying out any time soon. Not flying out. I am from new york city. Im down here to see my daughters and my grandson milo. How you doing, milo . Steven tyler checking out the scenery. Our very own al roker, you asknd your son nick hit the slopes. It was packed. I bet. Last week, this dash cam went video. Bobby white of the police department, called to the scene of a noise complaint. Instead of punishing the kids, the officer joined in on the fun. Officer white has outdone himself. He brought along a special guest for a second game. Have a look. Told you i was going to bring backup, right . You ready . Yeah. Bring your good game . Yeah. Sure you can take them . Youre sure you can take these guys, right . I brought other backup for yall. Getting ready. Thats shaquille oneil, everybody, former nba star. He wanted to surprise the kids and did that. He played basketball with them and gave each kid 100 bill if they made a free throw. He was out about 800 by the end of the day. Good for them. Very good. Finally, i think we all expected an snl skit after sarah palin endorsed donald trump last week. We were wishing tina fey would reprise her role as palin, which happened. Take a look. We americans are struggling. So many of us have lost our jobs at the factory or a reality show about alaska. Weve seen our own children targeted by the police for no reason other than they committed some crimes. They stomp on our necks and say, take a chill pill, jill. But we are mad. Weve been had. Were not so glad, quotes the lorax. Pretty amazing that that cast and crew of snl, saturday night here in new york city, with that blizzard conditions, all went to work and put on a great show. They all came in early, spent the nigh so they had everybody together. The audience was there. Kudos to our friends at snl. Thank you, cars thats your latest weather. Thank you very much.

Mr. Secretary, welcome back. What is churchill solitaire . Churchill, winston churchill, used to play this game and taught it to a friend of mine. The friend of mine taught it to me back in 1970s. Its a game that dates back many, many decades. Of a brandnew app. People play this on their ipads. Yes. How does it differ from regular solitaire . First of all, you use two decks. Second, its vastly more complex and requires strategic thinking. You have to be brilliant. You have to come over here. You have to be bril wrantliant and smart. This junior education i got isnt working. How does it work . Two decks, ten rows. Hes moderate lyly educated. Not many people knew this version of the game. With the app, everybody is going to learn it. Basically, the people that churchill taught and who taught someone else, like me. Youre expanding into a bigger audience. Your profits from this . Will go to military charities that support the troops and their families and the families of the fallen. Dana good morning is a 20 6 00 a. M. On this monday and i am dana wagner at news 3.

Its a Beautiful Day out here on our freshly plowed plaza. All the cities of the east are recovering from blizzard 2016. Recovering pretty well here in new york city. Pretty good. Inside the studio right now, one of our favorites, kate hudson is here. Lot to talk to her about this morning, including a brandnew tattoo. Oh. See this . What does it say . Broncos. Wow. That could have worked out very badly, but it didnt. Well talk to her about that, and her role in a brandnew movie, as well. Plus, weve been talking about shoveling snow. So many questions, after your injury, especially. Does it help to fight off a cold and what should you reach for to treat it . The remedies that work and the ones that dont. I dont know about snow shoveling. Was that one of the remedies . I dont think so. Also coming up, one of the keys to a great nights sleep. Its the right mattress. Well show you how to find the right one. First, lets get a check of the weather from mr. Roker. What do we have going on today . The week ahead, eastern seaboard, pretty quiet. West coast, as well. Snow is making its way into the upper great lakes and wet weather through the gulf coast. Midweek midweek, were watching something developing along the southeastern coast, now around the Northern Plains and pacific northwest. The latter part of the week, possible storm off the northeast coast. Uhoh. Well see. Look for more rain and snow in the pacific northwest. Central california on into the plains. They warm up in the northeast. Below normal temperatures through the rockies. Midweek, the warmth gets into the northeast, new england. Central plains and Northern Plains, warmer. The latter part of the week, the warmth continues in the northeast. Maybe if that storm comes up the coast, its not cold enough to thats your latest weather. Matt is there with my costar. There you go, al. Lets say hi to oscar nominated actress kate hudson and the new movie kung fu panda 3, who plays the character who caught the eye of the franchises hero, po. Take a look. Huh . I am may may. Shes amazing. Shes so beautiful. Thats sweet, po. Please try to save all other compliments until after the performance. Has it started yet . Look away. Look away. No, you cant, can you . Why does she keep staring at me like that . So out of character for you. Kate hudson, good morning. Good to see you. Im not like that. Not at all. Maybe a little bit. Lets talk about your arm, lets talk about the Denver Broncos. Youre a fan. Im a Peyton Manning fan. I grew up in colorado. When Peyton Manning, you know, was like our whole family was like, ah be honest, was that on your arm before or after the game . Before. You sure . It was on my snapchat. Not just after they won . Of course not. What kind of fan are you . I have a feeling you sit at home and watch the game, jump over furniture and stuff. I grew up with three boys. Thats what we do. Predictions. Dont start. Me . Im going to go broncos. Two weeks away. Broncos. Everybody seems to differ. Well see what happens. Ill put my money there. Only matters what happens in two weeks on sunday. Lets talk about this movie. This is the first time youve done animation. Was it something youd always wanted to do . Yeah. For some reason, its never happened. Then jeffrey, dreamworks called and said, will you come and do may may . Its kung fu panda, and i have a 12yearold so he grew up with it. To be a part of it. When i first heard you were in it, the one thing i thought about, kate, is you seem like the actress who loves to interact with other actors. I do. In a scene. I do. You dont get to do this when youre doing a movie like this. And you look insane when youre in the booth. Im sitting in there doing all these things. I dont know what im doing. Definitely a different experience but it was great. You push yourself vocally more than anything. You go big. You exaggerate everything. Mmhmm. May may is a panda who likes to tell people to be themselves and concentrate on what they do best. Right. What do you do best . Thats po, too. Personally or in this . Personally. Remembering its a morning show. What i do best, i would think, is, you know. Always look on the bright side youre a Glass Half Full person. Im optimistic, but im not unrealistic. Best thing i probably do is, id say im a pretty darn good parent. Im going to pat myself on the back for that one. I got good kids. Not easy these days. You know how old are they . 12 and 4. Rider, you know, is turning out to be im really super proud of him. You know, i had something to do with that. I think parenting is where i feel probably my strongest. I dont think there could be a better accomplishment than that. I hope so. Then we get to 18. Well see what happens. Kate hudson, two weeks from now on sunday kung fu panda 3. Go broncos. More than one thing to plug. Good to see you. You, too. Kung fu panda 3 hits theaters this friday. Up next, the next step in joys cleanse to help you feel and look your best in 2016. Nbc. Were back, its 8 39. Final week of our start today series. But theres always time to improve your health and diet. Joy bauer is here with more on our diet cleanse. Good morning. Good morning. Final week, we mind us what were cleansing this month. Four things were omitting. The white starch, fatty meets, sugary beverages and today, were talking about excessive salt. Thats a big part of our diet. Why . Everybody is not salt sensitive, we do know when salt does not cause high blood pressure, more than 30 of americans have high blood pressure. Excessive salt is like insult to injury. This is a healthy artery. Imagine its like a garden hose. The water is flowing through it seamlessly. If somebody has high blood pressure, lets look at an affecteda infected artery. This is already narrowed. If you take in salt, it draws in water, which means its going to blood fluid. Youre going to have a high blood pressure. Which sets you up for a higher risk for Heart Disease and stroke. We want to minimize the salt. The good news is, theres simple things to do at home. Three great ideas. I never think of salad dressing as a salt container, but it is. Right. When you buy whether its the fattening salad dressings at the store or the lower calorie, theyre 250 milligrams per two tablespoons. Who stops at two tablespoons . Not me, my friend. When it comes to the creamy ranch or caesar bottled dressings, dilute it with 50 lowfat butter milk. Oh. This is low in salt. Its tangy, creamy and youll drive down the sodium by 45 . Okay. When it comes to vinegar do the same with red wine vinegar. You have a salad dress fg youing if you want to make one yourself. Ill tweet it out after the show. If you swapped this, at the end of the year, youd save yourself the sodium equivalent of 2,000 saltine saltine. In the wrappers because were donating them. Were not wasting them. Sandwiches, everything. This is a ham and cheese sandwich. Because of the bread and the salty ham, mayo, mustard and, of course, pickles, 2,185 milligrams, almost as much as we should be eating in a day. We could do better. I built this sandwich. Same bread.

As we spend about 1 3 of our lives in bed, it makes sense to invest in great mattresses. With a lot of options out there, how do you pick the right one . Here to help is today. Com contributor elizabeth. Good morning. Good morning. Good to see you. Good to see you. Before we talk about how to go about buying a new mattress, how do you know when you need to buy a new one . Most last about ten years. If its been ten years, you probably need a new one. If you feel coils or anything popping up, you need one. If you sleep better elsewhere than at home, if you wake up with aches and pains, you kind of got it. Time to invest. Two ways to buy a mattress. You can go to a store or shop online. Lets start with stores. What do we need to know . First of all, its subjective. Whats comfortable for you might not be comfortable for me. Theres two types of mattresses. Classic spring mattress, which this is. Inner spring. Right. Inner spring mattress. Coils. Its not the number of coils, its the strength of the coils. The stronger the coil, the more firm it is. And just to keep this in mind, the lower the number, like a 12 gauge, 12. 5, is a stronger spring. You think people need to go to the store, if you can, bring your partner, the person youre spending time on the mattress with, and lay down. Grab a pillow and lay down for ten minutes. Absolutely. Its the only real way. This is the goldilocks experience. You want it to be just right. I like spring mattresses. Im not personally a Foam Mattress this is a Foam Mattress. Store doesnt think its weird if you lay down for ten minutes. They want you to. Its the traditional way of buying a mattress. A lot of people say, i can never buy a mattress unless i spent time in it. The difference between this you can put your hands on it and you feel a difference. Right. A lot of people like the Foam Mattress. This is a top of the line, absolutely pure latex. Its good for keeping away dust mites, but it is a particular feel. Once you buy a mattress, two schools of thought, to flip or not to flip . How often do you turn the mattress over . Youre supposed to flip your mattress four times a year. There are mattresses that have a pillow top that you cant necessarily flip. You should be rotating those front to back. It prolongs the life of your mattress. The other thing that prolongs the mattress sais a box spring. It goes with the mattress and supports it. If i buy a mattress online, what do i keep in mind . The biggest trend, retailers are basically saying, were making it simple. Were giving you onestop shopping where you can come here, buy a mattress. This is from a newer company, line premium, classic spring mattress. Theyre offering three options. You dont get to try it. But what theyre doing is giving you a 75day guarantee. If you dont like it, you can spend it back after 75 days. What do they do with the mattresses someone had 75 days and returned . I dont know. This is the biggest trend out there. There is this whole line of online Foam Mattresses that cropped up. Theyre affordable. Whats interesting about this mattress, this is from lull, it comes in this size box. That mattress was in here . Its been inflating a little bit. It comes wrapped. You take off this little white thing. Now, this is a Foam Mattress. What you see is when you cut it, i mean, this is pretty much already sprung to life. But you cut it and, look, itll grow as it comes out. Itll continue to grow for the next 24 to 48 hours. Wow. Just by millimeters. Do it again. Show us more. You do live in a walk up or place where you couldnt get a normal king size mattress in, cant make the corners, this comes. It is a Foam Mattress. How much does this cost . For a twin, less expensive, like in the 500 range. This is the millennial, the way that things are going. Wow. Elizabeth, thank you very much. Not often you get Marlon Wayans to ah over a mattress segment. I have the same mattress since i was 5. Its awesome. Time for a new one, buddy. So many people slept on the mattress. All right. Keeping your space right here, matt. Come over. Marlon wayans has a new movie. Not so subtle parody of fifty fifty shades of black. Basically like Christian Gray but hes black. Obviously. Hes rich but you dont know how he got his money. Its shady. Hes a really bad lover. Christian gray wasnt very impressive, i have to tell you. He was doing stuff, like, not great. Christian black, he has great advanced thoughts but hes bad in bed. Is this as explicit . Its different. Where they get explicit and intense, we go, theres the joke. Its not as heavy. Every time it gets sexy, somebody funny zboing niny is going to happen. What did you think of fifty shades of gray . When i first saw it, like i said, i was sitting there the book, i read the book, parody book, because all the women were loving the book. My mama and all them were like, this book is intense.

If your College Student doesnt know how to pump gas, you are a helicopter parent. Now, theres help for you from a former dean of freshman at Stanford University and mother of two, Julie Lythcott raise an adult, break free from the overparenting trap. Julie means business. Thats right. Good morning. Good morning, tamron and willie. Thank you so much for having me. There have been so many articles of late focused in on this. Parents, i think, recognizing that this is real and that it can hurt their adult children. Absolutely. Here i was, a dean of freshman, working with very accomplished students. Students whose resumes and transcripts were impressive. Yet, over the years, i noticed, fewer and fewer of them seemed really familiar with how to accomplish the tasks of life without consulting a parent. Parents were happy to help. I had an advisee who texted her parent time zones away to find out, where is my next class, even though she was in a building with hundreds of many humans who could have helped her answer the question. We can have a whole other segment on how we got to having kids that way, but lets focus over parenting. How do you distinguish . Over protective is the parent who says the world is scary, unsafer and unpredictable and, therefore, i must prevent at every turn instead of prepare my kid for whats out there. The over directive says, i know best. What leads to success and you will do as i say and do it extremely well. Then the concierge is holding the kids hand. Ill wake you up, fill out your applications, make sure you have what you need in your backpack, ill argue with teachers and coaches. Its the handler. The good news, we know it can cause damage, kids will not be prepared socially, especially at college, but the thing is, these are habits that can be broken. Where do we start . Well, we start with stopping doing these three things. Number one, dont say we if you mean your son or daughter. Were on the travel soccer team. We finished that science maybe you did. But stop saying we. Were not going to college, they are. Stop arguing with every teacher, principal, referee. Stop doing their homework. Too many parents are trying to achieve the shortterm win of the better grade by redoing the math or rewriting the essay or doing the science project. You know, i hear a lot of parents say, i do all these things to help because i want to get them into the college so they will alone have a better life for themselves. What do you say to that . The shortterm win of the better grade is leading to the longterm cost your kid thinks, im not capable of doing anything without my parents helping. Theyre young adults, bewildered, because theyre unaccustomed to thinking and planning for themselves. It undercuts them in the workplace. You have a list of skills that 18yearolds should be prepared to do. I have to do a confession. Im a 45yearold with a helicopter parent, therapy tomorrow. Right now on the show. 18yearolds in your family should be able to do what . They have to talk to strangers. We tell them, dont talk to strangers. The right message is, learn to discern the one bad stranger from the vast majority of good ones. Well have the rest of the list online. This is today on nbc. You made it back from vegas . Yes, we survived. Barely, as you know. Literally. We have zachary levi, and tyler henry. Chris carmack. Know him from nashville. Great singer. Cant wait. Wine rack. It is a rack. Announcer shark tanks
