Prediction. An 80 feet section of the harbor sea wall collapsed causing flooding of at least four feet. Nine homes were severely damaged and another 50 to 100 residences are being urged to evacuate. Well bring you any updates as we get them. Today Massachusetts GovernorCharlie Baker said transit would stay shut down all day. The governor made clear Road Conditions were still very dangerous. For those i have talked to who have been out driving around many of our Public Safety folks, there are still a lot of driveways that havent been shovelled or walkways that have been cleared. Theres still a lot of work to do. By the way, because the snow in many parts of eastern mass is falling as hard as when the storm began, theyre having trouble keeping up with it on the streets as it is now. A travel ban is still in effect for the majority of the state. The heaviest snowfall is in framingham massachusetts, where 30 inches was reported. The island of nantucket is without power after 78 mile an hour wind gusts battered the island. Over 7,000 flights have been cancelled. Travel bans have been lifted in new york, new jersey, and connecticut. Overall the storm spared new york city. New york citys Mass Transit System is slowly restoring service and traffic is rolling through the city. Long island seems to have been hit the hardest with 28 inches of snow being reported. Things may be picking up in new york city after missing the brunt of the storm, but massachusetts and maine are still being hit hard. For more lets go now to nbc news correspondent john yang who appears to be right in the eye of the storm. Whats the latest there tonight . Reporter 18 inches so far and counting. The blizzard warning remains in effect in portland until 4 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning. Its been coming down at a rate of 2 to 4 inches an hour all day long. It is going to keep up until the evening and not taper off until tomorrow morning. Wind gusts up to 40 Miles Per Hour creating a windchill of 2 below. You have a lot of blowing snow. These streets, they have been working hard in portland to clear these streets and plow them. You have got wind blowing over and covering the streets with snow again. There are about 2,000 people throughout maine without power and there is concern about coastal flooding and erosion although nothing like youre seeing farther south in massachusetts. Any kind of evacuations taking place in the area where you are, john . I know they are concerned about coastal flooding and high tide. Reporter not so far. The peak of the storm has been at low tide here so they havent had the surge, say, in marshfield, massachusetts, in that area. So far, no great problems. John i see that there are some people out and about who are venturing out, so it is not totally bad. There are some folks who are enjoying it or seeing what it is like to get around. Theres one recreator right behind you right there. Reporter you have a couple of people on Cross Country skis. This is maine after all. They enjoy their cold weather. They enjoy their winter sports. They got tired of sitting inside and wanted to see what was going on outside. Cabin fever is something very real. It look like that is the cure for it right now. Officials are urging now travel in the area. It is very terrible conditions, and were certainly not out of it yet. Some have been very critical of meteorologists for over predict predicting snowfall in new york city and surrounding areas. Reports were calling for the possibility of two feet. Social media has been critical of forecasters who missed the mark. You made a lot of tough decisions expecting us to get it right and we didnt. Once again i am sorry. I think the system has worked. Its better to be safe than sorry. Government officials listened to forecasters as they should have and the public listened to warnings from governors and mayors which they should have. Bill de blasio said he had no regrets. Would you rather be ahead of the action or behind . Would you rather be safe or unsafe . My job as leader is to make decisions and i will always err on the side of safety and caution. We had consistently, not just for the day of yesterday but for several days reporting talking about two feet of snow or more. You cant be a monday morning quarterback. Theres no perfect capacity to project the weather. The travel bans that were put into effect in closing the public Transit System kept the public safe. This could have been a historic storm and we could have had much worse results. Having lived in the midwest, i can tell you this was the right call to make. There shouldnt be any criticism criticism. There should be a lot of people thankful were not reporting a lot of dead bodyies tonight. Tonights question, did officials make the right call on the blizzard . Text a for yes. Text b for no. Let me bring in paul douglas. Paul, always great to have you with us. This has been a mixed bag because in some of the areas the snow is still coming down and coming down hard and theres still some really rough areas out there, but it didnt seem to be as widespread as some experts had predicted. Did the forecasters do their job correctly . Ill start with that tonight. Its not a perfect situation, ed. And it never will be. The models are good and getting better. About 1 every year. They never will be perfect. The european model was predicting close to two feet of snow for metro new york city. You look at the weather models which were all pretty much in alignment for much of day yesterday and then late last night, which became available at 10 00 and 11 00 at night, did show the heaviest of snows would stay east of manhattan. You go 40 50 miles east into Nassau County you have reports of 20 21 22 inches of snow. Im not sure the super computer models will ever be able to refine over a small geographical area. I think we give the grand illusion because we have super computers, because we have doppler radar, we can predict down to the inch. Im not sure thats ever going to be possible. Predicting the future is fraught with peril. Theres no doubt about that. We were talking last night about the unpredictability of these arctic clippers and how they can change in a heart beat. If i was living in boston i would think the forecasters got it correct. Absolutely. It doesnt look good there at all. Theres millions of inconvenienced people because of this storm, but criticism for forecasters is just part of the business, isnt it . Yeah. You develop a thick skin. Again, people if it doesnt verify in my yard the forecast is wrong. Even though you say 10 20 miles down the road they got such and such, it doesnt matter. I have worked with a number of television anchor men over the years in minneapolis and chicago, ed. Whenever they gave me a hard time about a busted forecast i would off camera during the commercial break say, you know you could dress a monkey in a sport coat to report what happened yesterday. Why dont you look at all the trends and predict what the news will be tomorrow . The sports guy, why dont you predict the sports score and why . Then well be on a level playing field. We have all these models. Were drowning in data. What do you believe and when . This was still a massive storm. Tell folks in boston that it was a bust. New york city you know it was still a plowable storm. Last night was still dangerous with the winds and the windchill. Could it have been a better forecast . Yes. They all did what they had to do. They erred on the side of caution and Public Safety. Thats what we have to do. The travel bans and shutting down Public Transit clearly was the right thing to do because had they not done it and the storm had hit, who knows what kind of problems we could have had. We could have had accidents and then getting to people who are injured or retrieving people in dangerous situations puts rescuers and Emergency Personnel in ominous positions. Sure. Based on the models and the computer technology, it was really a nobrainer to do that wasnt it . It really was. All the evidence was there. The potential was there. We had the unusually warm gulf stream waters. All the ingredients aligning for a very significant storm, and it was a significant storm. It was just shunted eastward about 40 miles an hour. It can make the difference between 8 inches of snow and 21 inches of snow. That was the case in new york city. Given all the information, i think id do it all over again and id rather apologize for missing the snowfall totals for being a little light on the snowfall totals than apologizing that somebodys loved ones got in a Traffic Accident or people died. Pick your poison. In this kind of a situation, it is never going to be perfect, but you have to do what you think is right for the greater good and for Public Safety. Paul how much more Severe Weather do you think youre looking at for new england as this unfolds . Well theres no question that tonights going to be a very rough night. More flooding at high tide. More very heavy know especially near the coast, but this storm system is now accelerating to the north and east in about another 12 to 18 hours. With el nino beginning to kick in, that fehravors big storms across the south. I think were going to see a parade of coastal storms right into february and march, so folks out east shouldnt be letting their guard down just yet. All right. Paul douglas, great to have you with us tonight. Senior meteorologist at the Meteorological Group in minneapolis. Remember to answer tonights question there at the bottom of the screen.

Massachusetts Governor Charlie BakerJust Announced moments ago the travel ban in the state of massachusetts will be lifted tonight at midnight. That travel ban will be lifted tonight at midnight. We will bring you any updates as we get them. In other news president obama has a plan to open up areas of the nations federally owned waters to oil and Natural Gas Drilling in the atlantic ocean. Parts of the plan is expected to include leases off the southern Atlantic States including virginia and both North Carolina and south carolina. Opening the eastern seaboard to oil drilling is a prize the oil industry has been working toward for decades. Oil and gas drilling is prohibited on 12 million acres. The area includes 1. 4 million oil rich acres along the coast. Both proposals are part of the interior departments latest fiveyear plan that they want to implement. The department wants to sell federal leases for oil and Gas Development from the years 2017 to 2022. It does not require a congressional approval. Environmentalists think the proposal is simply inviting another possible bp disaster of sorts. Dr. Reese halter at the muse school and author of shepherding the sea joins us tonight. Could this offshore drilling in the south atlantic invite another disaster like we have seen down in the gulf and how serious would the risk be to our coast if this plan is implemented . Absolutely. Good evening, ed. The fact that were even considering going in there is outrageous. Absolutely a disaster can happen. Look the more times we get stuck into drilling the more chances accidents happen. Let me tell you why every american should care. One in three americans suffer from pain. Ed the strongest pain heart, and cancer medicines come from our oceans. Going into the ocean, which by the way is very ill, jeopardizes our drugs and health. The oceans are the main life support system for our planet. Whats going on here . Well, the drilling techniques techniques, would this be deep water drilling similar to what we have seen down in the gulf coast or would this be Shallow Water drilling where if there was a problem they would be able to get to it quickly . A variety of that. Theres deep drilling. Theres shallow drilling. Theres sonar that sends pulses at 252 decibels into the ocean every ten seconds nonstop for months that kills creatures. We got to begin seriously distance ourselves from fossil fuels. Capitulating here, going back to the old ways, thats not the future. We have between 1300 1600 sperm whales that are is sickest whales we have ever seen on our planet postbp. Come on. Why would it be okay to drill off the south Atlantic Coast but not okay to do it in the arctic . Whats the difference . Youre asking me. I would say there is no difference. The difference is were making concessions in an area that there should be no concessions. Around the world, in the last 18 months, the viewers have to understand we have disasters in brazil in the north sea and off nigeria. When these pulses go into the water, in brazil we had 900 long beak dolphins dead their eardrums shattered. 100 melon head whales did, their eardrums shattered. These are heat trapping gases that were adding to an overheated atmosphere. By all accounts what we can plan for is a more extreme droughts, more intense precipitation events. When and where are we going to futureproof our planet for our children and grandchildren, ed . Thats an excellent question because president obama is pursuing an aggressive Climate Change agenda, so this would send a mixed signal no question about it. For years, the oil and gas industry has tried to do some drilling off the south atlantic. This does not involve the east coast of florida. It is further up the coastline, but this is considered to be some of the best clamming and oyster areas on the entire east coast and the aqua culture is a multimillion dollar industry. If there was some kind of an accident, god for bid, this would put that industry in the carolinas very much in jeopardy. The question of whether it is Shallow Water drilling or deep water drilling is very important. I think Shallow Water drilling would probably be something easier to get done. If there was a problem, they could get to it quicker. Deep water drilling you dont have to go very far off the coast to get into deep water . No ed. Lets not forget there was 318 olympic swimming pools of crude with high methane from the gulf. This is absolute madness. By the way, the viewers need to understand it is all subsidized. If you dont subsidize this offshore drilling theyre not going to do it ed. Come on. Were handing the car keys to our childrens future to people who are not vested in innovation, our best friend here. Certainly a mixed message being sent from the white house on exactly where theyre going to stand on this. Great to have you with us tonight. I appreciate your time. Always a pleasure. Coming up the keystone push it is a roadblock in congress. Well hear from residents who are fighting the pipeline through imminent domain and Property Rights in their own backyard.

Our first question tonight comes from steve. Did you see the 60 minutes interview this past sunday with Speaker Boehner and senator mcconnell . Yes, i did and i almost threw up. Seriously, i did see the interview. I talked about it on my podcast. You can get that at we got ed. My question is whats changed . Nothing. The republicans are still sending a message that theyre going to do everything they can to defeat this president on every issue. Theres not going to be any compromise and it is their way or the highway. Everything from minimum wage to you name it. You name it. The republicans, there is no leeway anywhere. Theres no negotiation. Its their way or the highway and they think they have been mandated by the American People to view the world in their very narrow vision. I was disappointed, so the process goes on. Our next question is from larry. Do you have any plans for your birthday . Birthday, somebodys got a birthday . Really . Son of a gun. How about that .

While much of the country was focused on wintry weather, congress wasted your taxpayer dollars on takeing a vote of the Keystone Pipeline. The ongoing congressional fight is all about political theater. Im here to tell you the biggest blow to this pipeline is coming from outside the beltway. This weekend i traveled to nebraska nebraska. I spoke with landowners whose lively hoods depend on the land. These americans are standing up to special interests. They smile and giggle and enjoy the laughs of any nextdoor neighbor, but underneath they live in fear that an oil pipeline carrying the worlds dirtiest oil will end up on their land in some cases just feet away from where they sleep. They affectionately call themselves the pipeline posse. Some of these 100 landowners in york and holt counties nebraska, claim they have the legal muscle to stop keystone. This is the pipeline posse. We go to parades. We protest. Whatever we can to bring attention to whats going on. The keystone xl project has boiled down to what these folks in nebraska knew all along. It was going to be about Property Rights and imminent domain. It doesnt matter if the president supports it or doesnt support it. Legally, this pipeline cant be built for possibly years to come. Heres the lead attorney on the imminent domain cases. The president hasnt said no to this. Hes given some indications that hes not for it. How frustrating is that to the land owners . Well we wanted a decision either way, but what the president does is irrelevant to what were doing in nebraska. Lets set our sights higher than a single oil pipeline. Tell me about the liability. What do you mean by that . The land owners still have the liability for any negligence that occurs. Transcanada can say wasnt it you who drove your combine across the easement . Maybe its you. It would be the little guy against the Big Corporation who has deep pockets who can drive the whole thing. The land owner would lose everything they have. Mostly it boils down to the families, the future and the content in the pipeline. Terry and Becky Van Housen own a feed lot where the pipeline is projected to go. They want to shove that pipe right through our field, and what im worried about is where it goes through the incline and everything and the way it gets cold here. Itll go down into our water system. It is two miles from my feed yard, which i have fields in between. I got seven neighbors. It will effect the water on all of them and it will eventually get to my feed yard. With all that chemical and all that tar sand it would probably kill the cattle. What do you say to those who say this is the latest stateoftheart on this pipeline and you dont have to worry about that . Everything a human builds can be broken. Transcanada is breaking out the checkbook. Recently the offers have been staggering. Ive been told you were offered 250,000 to allow this pipeline to come over your land. Is that true . That was their first offer. The best offer i have had is 307,000. And you say no to that. Yes. Can you be bought . No because my land is worth me to me and my family than any money they would offer me. This is as much emotional as it is anything else. It is about the land. Its about whats in the pipeline. Its about what should stay in canada and get refined. If they want to pump that oil down there my farm i could accept that. Whats moving people on this issue is what it means to the landowners and what it means to their families . It is emotional. We have two kids our son is with us farming right now. You know if theres a leak in the pipeline, in the aquifer, what happens to our kids down the line . Thats really it, isnt it . Yes, and it isnt just us. It is our neighbors, our irrigation, our cattle its our living. The main way you get to nebraskans is by telling them that this product, this tar sludge is not for us. That it is going to dutyfree refineries on the coast and it is going to the highest bidder on the global marketplace. How can a Foreign Company for profit take our land . Through imminent domain. The whole thing is rotten. They are incredibly determined. We have an excellent core group. Over 100 cases of imminentfiled this time. Theres been a real fever pitched attitude here in the heartland against the pipeline. People are opening their eyes to the real risks and just want to be treated fairly want to be paid properly. These farmers take pride in the fact that their land is the bread basket of america. Building the Keystone Pipeline has far too many environmental risks. They are aquifer deniers. They refeuz touse to admit that it exist out here and theres dangers to it. It flooded mayflower. We gothave the cleanest water in the world. I took this right out of the spigot. Look how clean that is. You cant get to them talking about Climate Change and the devastation to the canadian forests. You can get to them if youre saying theyre taking our land for their profit. Folks in nebraska are expressing concern over misinformation being spread by lawmakers. We build pipelines everywhere in america every day. Do you giggle at some of the stuff that you hear thats misinformation . Yes. You call your neighbor and say, did you hear that . A lot of it comes out of washington, d. C. They dont know . Just watching the Senate Debate and the house of representatives debate. They are so out of touch. I want you to respond to what some of the democrats are saying about this pipeline that the oil will stay here. All you have to do is actually look at transcanadas application or listen to them when they are testifying if inging in front of congress. They have admitted they cannot guarantee that a drop of that oil will stay in the united states. This line will be built. Thats inevitable. Its going to be built. It is just a matter of what time. Do we build it quicker . Do we create the jobs or do we drag it out . Versus a talking point memo. From every landowner who i have met who are fighting against the Keystone Pipeline, one thing is unanimous. Can you be bought . No. Its not about the money at all. No its about the future generations. Preserving the environment. The Property Rights issue could play out in nebraska for at least 2 1 2 to 3 years. Theres no way this pipeline is going to get built during president obamas presidency. Theres no need for him to make a decision on this. It is going to be a hot issue in 2016 but those landowners cant be bought and that is a big hurdle to climb. Still to come there are new details in deflategate controversy. Stay with us. Mmm, a perfect 177degrees. And thats why this road warrior rents from national. I can bypass the counter and go straight to my car. And i dont have to talk to any humans, unless i want to.

Massachusetts Governor Charlie BakerJust Announced the travel gan in massachusetts will be lifted tonight at midnight. If we have any other updates well get them to you. Now to football super bowl xlix is only five days away. Everyone should be focused on the game but instead its all about deflategate. Bob kraft strongly defended his team. I want to make it clear that i believe unconditionally that the new England Patriots have done nothing inappropriate in this process or in violation of nfl rules. Bill tom and i have had many difficult discussions over the years, and i have never known them to lie to me. Thats why i am confidence in say what i just said. It bothers me greatly that their reputations and integrity and by association that of our team has been called into question this past week. If the wells investigation is not able to definitively determine that our organization tampered with the air pressure of the footballs, i would expect and hope that the league would apologize to our entire team and in particular coach belichick and tom brady. Bob kraft is basically daring the league to punish the patriots. He is sticking by bill belichicks defense weather and temperature changes played a role in the footballs pressure. Just before krafts press conference jay glazer of fox sports reported that the nfl has zeroed in on a patriots locker Room Attendant, according to sources, quote, there is surveillance showing the attendant taking the footballs into into room at Gillette Stadium before bringing them out to the field. The fox sports report has not been confirmed by nbc news the locker Room Attendant has reportedly been interviewed by league officials. Its not clear at this point if the attendant is responsible for any wrongdoing. For more let me bring in former nfl quarterback sage rosen feds and terrence moore, National Sports columnist. Sage i dont know if weve got a politically correct term here about a locker Room Attendant. Back when i played they were called ball boys. Who are we talking about here . Who has the authority to touch the footballs and manage them . What can you tell us . We are talking about the ball boys. Each team usually has about three or four guys that work full time but on game day, they usually hire three, four five guys to help out. Usually wu68 ball boys is a guy thats hired just for sunday. Terrence what do you make of mr. Krafts comments . He says he believes that nobodys lying. Hes just trying to get rid of this isnt he . Im here in phoenix, and the gen consensus of the people i talked to robert kraft is about to become the most embarrassed owner in the history of the National Football league. The patriots are clearly guilty here. The nfl has the most videotaped entity on the face of the earth. Theyve got the goods. They probably knew within 48 hours that the patriots were guilty with this. Youve got this ball boy stopping in the room before going out to the field. Whats he doing . Praying with the footballs . The question here is not who did it. The bigger question is whether or not this ball boy, or whoever else was in that room is going to squeal on who told them to do this . Somebody did tell them to do this. Sage what is your response to what you just heard there . Well i pretty much agree, i think pretty much agrees theres some untruths being told here. I think theres a case of if that ball boy is going to sell out tom brady, who was a good chance when tom brady was a rookie, the ball boy was probably 10 years old and has looked up to him his entire life.
