It is the busiest day of the holiday season, two winter storms are moving in. Ginger is here with the details. What do we have . Weve got, yeah, two winter storms and this, happening overnight, fresh accidents, new snow and this is just in minneapolis. There is a large area of our nation that well watch from chicago to detroit down to houston this morning. Fresh slideoffs as a menacing winter storm marches from the rockies to the plains. Crippling White Knuckle driving and a major headache just in time for the busiest travel week of the year. It is going to be tough. Tonight is traditionally the most difficult time. Reporter the most popular mode of transportation this thanksgiving the road. An expected 43. 5 Million People will drive more than 50 miles to reach their destination and already seen deadly accidents and major gridlock due to extra cars and icy roads. The best time to venture out before 11 00 a. M. This morning. If not youll want to wait until after 7 00 p. M. Tonight for better traffic. Thanksgiving day and black friday will be two of the best days to hit the road and the worst, sunday, any time between 11 00 a. M. And 6 00 p. M. , experts are expecting an 240 increase in traffic jams and 100 increase in accidents throughout the day. So weve got Winter Weather advisories also popping up in parts of the rockies, sierras, cascades and minnesota and wisconsin for the next 12 hours or so. Along that cold front there are a couple of areas and roads id like you to be aware of. Any highway through chicago also i75, detroit and cincinnati. Stopped at 7 00 p. M. If youre one of those people that will wait until after the rush those are two pockets and macys looks dry to start and rain, snow in the upper elevations. Guys, i have to mention, even though weve got the problems out west, if youre dry now and going to grandmas house and got good weather not going to be the case when you go back. I have the sunday forecast in just a couple of moments when everybody comes back from the holiday. The other end of the story, all right, ginger, thank you. Airport officials are warning flyers to arrive early. Louisville, long lines after a power outage and in chicago, lines are growing there too. Abcs alex perez is at Ohare Airport with plenty of company there. Good morning, alex. Reporter hey, good morning, robin. Thats right. We do have a lot of company. You can see the crowds starting to grow here at terminal one already. The good news they are moving quickly. If theyre more busy and crowded, 27. 3 million will fly. 2. 5 more than last year, 2. 5 million passengers at airports today alone. Now, in fact, airlines are adding 74,000 seats each day just to keep up with demand. Now, the tsa since the summer added about 1400 additional agents and has made many parttime agents full time. But even with all of that they are, of course, insisting that you show up early, give yourself extra time and say you should even give yourself additional time just to get to the airport. Robin. Thats true. All right. Well move to the trump transition. Just learned the president elect trump picked South Carolina governor nikki haley to be u. N. Ambassador. It comes as the trump family settles in at their maralago estate to celebrate thanksgiving and after that the New York Times interview where he softened and even reversed major positions he took during the campaign, david wright has all the latest. Reporter that appointment of nikki haley as u. N. Ambassador could well be a signal that trump is willing to work even with those who have opposed him in the past. And it comes as trump himself seems to be retreating from some of his Biggest Campaign pledges. The 44yearold republican governor was a supporter of marco rubio in the primaries but she has since come around. Well, i wont pretend to have always been president elects biggest cheerleader. I did vote for him and i was absolutely thrilled to see him win. Reporter haley is the daughter of indian immigrants who led the charge to remove the Confederate Flag from South Carolinas capital but not clear how much Foreign Policy experience she has. Her appointment comes as the president elect used a meeting with the New York Times to backtrack on some of his biggest applause lines from the campaign trail. The crowd chanted lock her up at every trump rally in response to the candidates vow to seek criminal charges against Hillary Clinton. If i win, i am going to ask my attorney general to appoint a special prosecutor to look into her crimes. Reporter the president elect trump told the times hes now having second thoughts about following through on that threat. I think it would be very, very divisive for the country, he said, adding, i dont want to hurt the clintons, i really dont. She went through a lot and suffered greatly. Well, so much for locking her up, i guess. Reporter senator Lindsey Graham told fox news thats not good enough. I do hope that all the things that donald trump said about how crooked she was, that we just dont let it go without some serious effort to see if the law was violated. Reporter on Climate Change another issue candidate trump hit hard. We will also cancel billions in Global Warming payments to the united nations. Reporter president elect trump is now more noncommittal, he told the times, i have an open mind to it. And on torturing potential terror suspects. I would bring back waterboarding and id bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding. Reporter the president elect indicated hed changed his mind about that after his sitdown with retired general james mattis, now a candidate for secretary of defense. He says mattis told him establishing trust was far more effective than torture, give me a pack of cigarettes and a couple of beers and he willill better. Trump was impressed by that answer. He reversed himself on the New York Times which throughout the campaign he lambasted as a faying paper, now he admits it he reads it every day although he joked hed live 20 years longer if he didnt. You two in that the New York Times interview donald trump was also pressed on possible conflicts of interest involving his Business Operations around the world. Questions are also being raised about his foundation. Our chief investigative correspondent brian ross is here with more on that. Good morning, brian. Reporter good morning. With the election safely behind him Donald Trumps sfoundation s admitting it was guilty of selfdealing. He said he could run his country perfectly all at the same time. From his penthouse apartment trump has repeatedly used his new position to meet or talk with people would could help push his business interests overseas. Some proudly posting pictures online and now he tells the New York Times, the law is on my side. The president cant have a conflict of interest. I think that were only at the beginning on the cusp of potential controversy involving conflicts of interest. Reporter during the Campaign Trump and his surrogates denounced an investigation into the Trump Charitable Foundation as political. Are you confident that the Trump Foundation has followed all charitable rules and laws . Well, i hope so. I mean my lawyers do it. Reporter in a new filing the Trump Foundation admits it was guilty of selfdealing following reports by the Washington Post that trump used the charity to pay for a portrait of himself, to help settle lawsuit, even to buy a signed football helmet. And the new filing also reveals that the Trump Foundation last year just like the Clinton Foundation accepted a huge donation, 150,000 in trumps case from a ukrainian billionaire, victor pinchuk, the kind that led to allegations by trump that the clintons and their foundation were corrupt. Clinton donors got favorable treatment. There needs to be a ban on contributions to the Trump Foundation and i think the children in particular should not be giving paid speaking fees particularly overseas because, again, that is a common method that foreign ole barks will use to curry favor with political figures in the United States. Reporter and thats the man who wrote so critically about the clintons and their foundation, now a trump insider. Peter schweitzer says he fears trump is already creating a climate in which people overseas will try to get to him through his foundation or his business or his children. George. Okay, brian, thanks very much. More on that from dan abrams and jon karl. Well come back to that in a minute. Jon, let me begin with you and the appointment of nikki haley, had tough words for donald trump throughout the campaign. They appeared to patch it up. This is a real effort by the president elect to reach out beyond his base. We also hear ben carson has been offered hud secretary. Reporter absolutely, two people that trump sparred with mightily during the primaries and patched it up with ben carson quite some time ago but im also told theres very serious consideration being given to mitt romney as secretary of state. An effort by trump to show that he will reach out, that he will show flexibility, both in terms of who he is putting in his cabinet and also in terms of the positions he is taking. Real dogfight for secretary of state. Mitt romney and rudy giuliani, a loyalist there as well. Some people saying senator bob corker could be in play, even general david petraeus. Reporter im told theres two schools, strong advocates for mitt romney for the symbol that would send to the wired Republican Party into the Foreign Policy establishment but thoses like Newt Gingrich who came out to say mitt romney would be a big mistake. Hed be concerned mitt romney as secretary of state would be more about mitt romney than about donald trump. Okay, lets talk about these conflicts with dan abrams. President elect really drew a hard line in that the New York Times interview yesterday saying the president cant have a conflict of interest. As a legal matter the federal statute that applies to conflicts of are federal employees doesnt apply to the president. Hes right on that. There is another provision in the constitution which basically says that a Foreign Government cant give a gift. That one probably does apply to the president. But as a practical matter the thing that id be most worried about with regard to these conflicts is the possibility that if he stays involved in any way, hes then subject to lawsuits, as well and so thats the real concern id have as a legal matter. The real questions what kind of fire wall he could set up if the kids are running the business, run every possible transaction by the white house counsels office. In theory. The ultimate thing would be to sell everything to the kids. Now to new developments in that School Bus Crash in tennessee. This morning investigators are trying to piece together what went wrong and the driver is facing multiple charges. Abcs david kerley has the latest. Reporter two pictures this morning, the wreckage of the school bus and the wreckage of families. 9yearold corps Cordayja Jones and zyaira mateen. Weve learned the 24yearold driver only received his commercial license in april and just two months ago had an accident in his bus hitting a car. These two boys survived the horrific crash. He started turing real fast around the corner. It feel like the world was turning upside down. He hit a mailbox and garbage can and thats when the tree went through the bus. Reporter the newest statistics, each year on average five students are killed in school bus dents but in an instant five were lotz here chattanooga renewing the call for seat belts. The cost of 2,000 to 5,000 per bus would mean millions for School Districts federal safety Officials Say it is time. We got to quit identifying the barriers why it cant get done and talk about how we get a threepoint seat belt on every school bus. Reporter as of this morning only six states require seat belts and i have to tell you this is a shaken community. I talked to a first responder, a veteran firefighter yesterday. He had to stop watching the coverage because of that horrific scene he to deal with just a couple of days ago. Can only imagine, thanks for being there for us. Amy is back from there with the mornings other top stories starting with a big headline aboutover time pay. Good morning, guys. 4 million americans will now not be getting that increase in overtime pay they may have been expecting. A federal judge blocked a new Obama Administration rule set to take effect next week. It would have made overtime pay available to salaried workersering up to 47,000 a year. Business groups challenged that rule arguing the government is overstepping its authority. Well, police say a person of interest is in custody after the shooting of a Police Officer at Wayne State University in detroit. Officer colin rose was shot in the head while investigating car breakins. He is out of surgery but is in critical condition. In philadelphia, police are trying to figure out who placed an explosive device inside a package left at a mans door. They say the man opened it thinking it was medication and was then seriously injured. Investigators say it appears that vic was targeted and is not a terror related case.

Take a look at what he found. 5,000 pieces of gold. They were hidden under chairs like in boxes, in the bathroom underneath neaths, in a whiskey bottle. 220 pounds of gold worth 3. 7 million. Wow. Thats a nice inheritance. That is. Thank you very much. Wow. Thats incredible. Lucky fella, i guess. All right, thank you, amy. Now, take a look at this. It might be the worst mannequin challenge ever. Its done by some of the brightest and best stars. You can see lights flashing, people are blinking. Theyre all over the place but this happened tuesday at president obamas medal of freedom ceremony. Its pretty good. George, if you really break it down if you really break it down, its a little bit of movement going on there. Wow. Youre tough. Im very tough. I got to post mine later on. Im not moving at all. The sweetest moment, Ellen Degeneres was moved to tears when she received her medal. The president praised her for her courage in coming out 20 years ago on her sitcom and it was really amazing. Really inspiring. A lot of great moments. The stars were honored. Thats it. Ginger, what do you have. We have a lot of great moments but for now we have to get to your local weather and snowy cities.

What was going on before he was hospitalized. West is now getting a psychiatric evaluation in los angeles. Abcs diane macedo has all the new details. Good morning, diane. Reporter west was being treated for sleep deprivation when his doctor called 911 saying he was psychotic. Now a famous friend of kanyes is speaking out saying he saw warning signs.

Paramedics and the Fire Department rushed to the Hollywood Home of his personal trainer where according to tmz officials spoke with him for 90 minutes before following protocol for a psychiatric patient restraining him and taking him to ucla medical center. The doctor called 911 and said that kanye was suffering a temporary psych coast cyst as a result of a lack of sleep and exhaustion. Reporter now fans wonder if the emergency caused his abrupt decision to cancel the remaining 21 appearances of his saint pablo tour. He arrived at his sacramento concert over an hour late and sang only two songs about of this happened. Stop, stop, stop. Reporter ranting for over 15 minutes on everything from the election to even beyonce and jay z. Jay z, call me. You still aint call me. That was uncharacteristic of him. That aside to cancel a month and a halfs worth of tours when a lot of money is on the line. Something is pretty wrong here. Reporter long time friend john legend saw the warning signs. We were with kim and i was concerned by what i saw so hopefully hes getting some rest and some time to figure things out.

Kim kardashian is said to be by her husbands side. No comment from either of their camps. The e network which airs her show confirms they did not film the 911 call and are not filming at the hospital so sounds like theyre going through this in relative privacy at least for them. Of great concern. Thank you. Now to that football stars secret health scare. J. J. Watt is one of the Houston Texans top defensive players now revealing how close he came to losing his leg and his career. Abcs ryan smith has more on this. Good morning, ryan. Good morning. J. J. Watt is arguably the top defensive force playing through pain time and again. When a staph infection, if not for catching it in time his legendary career in the making could have come to an end. Hes the threetime defensive player of the year. A force on the field. And off it, a perfect pitchman. Budding movie star to boot. Damn. Reporter while opposing forecast lines cant stop him, this morning, the Houston Texans j. J. Watt revealing what almost did for good. A staph infection nearly costing him his career. The 65, 289pound 27yearold telling the players tribune he noticed bumps on his knee in october of 2015 telling a trainer who rushed him to the hospital undergoing hours of antibiotics. Watt says team doctors told me if our trainer hadnt recognized the problem so quickly, i could have lost my leg. Staph infections are spread among teams very easily. Theyre spread through contact. Theyre also spread in the locker room whose surfaces people can sit on through razors, sharing towels. Reporter in football, theres growing concern. A staph outbreak in the buccaneers locker room sacked three players in 2013. In infection is just eating me up inside. It can till you. Reporter in 2015, new york giants daniel fells almost had his foot amputated. But watt isnt letting the infection get him down. The fourtime all pro saying of the game he loves, quote, the kid in me is back. Am i done, hell, no, im just getting started. Can i say that on tv. You just did. Okay. Youre just quoting. Offenses are scared hes coming back. Nobody likes to see that guy. Hopefully heals up soon and we have a big board coming up and in our big board, before you jump into that black friday rush, theres a new warning about the counterfit toys that may be online. Are we about to see the return of the flip phone if you guys remember that . You have one. Yeah, apples big clue. Were back in two minutes. Wow. Its targets electronics doorbusters you guys are hot, and you u. Hdtv, you look great well i mean. Everything looks amazing on you, you are 4k doors open thursday 6pm. But. My doctor recommended prilosec otc 7 years ago, 5 years ago, last week.

Use as directed 30 off apparel doorbuster black friday you guys look amazing good thing i wore my formal frosting tonight get 30 off apparel starting thursday 6pm at target. Were talking about the razr. Were breaking down more of this mornings top stories. Gio is here at the table. Did i see your husband over there . Lets start with that urgent warning as millions gear up for those big black friday and cyber monday deals. Authorities are cautioning americans about recalled and counterfeit toys. Becky is going to join us. Becky worley is joining us with more. Lets start with these recalled toys because many of them are Still Available online and theres a new report out about this. Tell us about it, becky. Yeah, it found you really have to Pay Attention to the toys youre buying, robin, especially toys for toddler talking anything that has small part, magnets. Older, anything with a battery. Since january of 2015 there have been over 40 recalls of toys and childrens products. 35 Million Units were talking about, some of which are still for sale through Third Party Online sellers. Lets go through that. A truck from the dollar store that can cut skin. A Remote Control copter that has overheating problems. All the companies voluntarily recalled them but that doesnt mean theyre not still for sale especially on the internet, robin. But, becky, more than discuss recalled toys but a lot of counterfeit toys out there, also. Exactly right. We saw yesterday a big press conference, Homeland Security and immigration control talking about counterfeit items, the dangers they pose, especially with batteries. Weve seen a lawsuit over a counterfeit hoverboard that burned a house to the ground. U. S. Customs seizing 70,000 in counterfeit toys. Listen, if you guys are buying electronics with batteries, you need to be sure youre buying from a reputable manufacturer. Even if its not electronic, toys need extra scrutiny. They could have high lead level, parts and pieces. They arent tested so we dont know. If the price seems too good to be true and dont know the reseller, dont take the chance. All good things to keep in mind. A good deal is not always a good deal. Thank you, becky. And up next, before you cook those thanksgiving bird, a growing number of people plan to deep fry them. A trend that is dangerous and lets take a look at this clip from modern family to give you an idea. The key is you drop it nice and gentle like. Oh, god not far off. Were laughing about this. Its very funny, of course, but theres a real serious concern when a lot of people are trying to deep fry turkeys. Ive covered so many of these fires. Theyre terrible. Talking about five deaths every year, 900 homes destroyed. So weve got tips from turkey fryer experts. You want to keep that fryer at least 10 feet away from your home on a stable surface. You want to monitor those fluid levels. You dont want it to overflow. You want to fully thaw that turkey. You dont want that frozen turkey to be going into the fryer and you want to monitor the temperature. You want to avoid the oil smoke point. Thats what gets very dangerous but you know what, we found a little video of another little tip. Maybe we can show this. Thats a drone dropping. If you could stay away from it. Going to the extreme here. Thats a little turkey. Thats a personal turkey right there. I think its just a leg. I dont know what that is. Have you ever had itty its delicious. I have it every year but i have somebody else make it. Have somebody else cook it. Of course, you do. Smart man. Are there other dangers we should be aware of . This is surprising. The usda, 68 of people actually wash the turkey before they eat it before they cook it. The usda says dont wash it. Just use it, just cook it raw and youll be fine because back tear i cant then wont spread all over the table. Thats what you do. Same thing with chicken. Do not wash it. You feel like youre doing something good. Thank you. Now if youre no taggic for that flip phone you may be in luck because apple has been grabbed a new patent for a foldable device sparking curiosity that the flip phone may be back. What is old could be new again, nick . Well, listen, there is clearly a bit of hipster retro chic action going on here but these are great little phones. Its a great design. Its a little hard to figure out exactly what apple is up to because they are very secret and file these Patent Applications using engineers names rather than saying Apple Corporation but looking at the diagrams i reckon it could be just like a flip phone or maybe fold in three, also, could be kind of like two iphones sort of backtoback so it is sort of like that so you got a bendy screen. Only thing that could make it cooler in my book is if it had an eighttrack player and a shag pile carpet. Thats not going to happen. Oh, behave. Oh, behave. Flip phones havent been popular for years so why do you think they want to bring them back now . It seems like we want to go in another direction. Well, listen, its a great design and, you know, im thinking they could use it. You could have maybe one app going on one side, another app on the other side. A two player game perhaps. You could use that as a stand so you can watch videos without holding your phone in your sweaty little hand. Who knows. We dont really know where theyre going with this. Listen, it might go nowhere. Apple files a bunch of patents. They do. As they told us. Not everything pans out. Probably not going to be the 8, maybe the 9 or 10 but, people, please dont start standing in line. This may never happen. I hope it does. But it may never happen. Lets check with our tech guru, becky, what say you . Robin, its 2006, it wants its design back. Are you kidding me . I mean, i cant have a headphone jack and youre going to give me things, no. No. Would you go for it. Let me tell you something, i miss something. I miss doing when youre angry. Why didnt you say that. Just hang up. You brought back anger nostalgia. Thats what i was thinking. My friend artie stocks up on flip phones and all he uses. He does not use a smartphone at all. Nick, becky, gio, thank you very much. Coming up in two minute, why High School Football game is heading to court. What . Plus, our huge dancing afterparty.

The game should have never gone to overtime and all sides agree. They should have looked at the rulebook, made a call. Something. On the last play of the game, i mean, come on. Such a travesty. That the call was made incorrectly by the refs. Reporter what happened . Leading 107 fenwick ran out the clock on what it thought would be the last play of the game. The ref rightly called a penalty on fenwick but incorrectly awarded plainfield whats called an untimed down. An extra play. They kicked a field goal and ultimately won in overtime. The rule states that they were not supposed to get another play at that point. Reporter the rules also clearly state referees decisions are final. The Athletic Association refused to overturn the outcome. Even after acknowledging and apologizing for the error. Plainfield district Officials Say they empa thiedz with fenwick and they should be proud however theyre preparing for the state championship game on saturday. In other words, sucks for you. Look, look here, the state Athletic Association said we cant do anything because the rules state we cant change it but lawyers found a case from 2009 where they did overturn a soccer game. Timing. It has to happen before the game, saturday . Yeah, the championship game is saturday afternoon. Are they practicing leading up just in case. Everybody is practicing just in case but on this standby. Did soccer have the same rules about the decisions are final by the refs. Applies to all sports. It has to be final because then you could go back in the Second Quarter and say this ref messed up this call. Look how well . Im going back to my days and complaining about a few things. I want to say t. J. Did such a good job with all those followup questions. We peppered him. Come on. What do you do . Right, now you got kids going to court over the end of a game. What kind of precedent does that set . But they were wronged. 100 . Unusual call to give an extra play. I mean it usually dogs not happen. Life is not fair. Theres a lesson they learned. Or were litigious. I dont know. We got a lot of dancing coming up. Gmas fall Concert Series presentedably carmax. Drive whats possible. To do something nice back.

To amy with the morning rundown. Good morning, the big story, all that weather impacting the Holiday Travel rush. Two winter storms moving across the country. Just as millions of americans hit the roads or head to the airport and experts are predicting the most thanksgiving traveled since 2011. Take a look at the traffic nightmare in los angeles last night. Oh, my goodness and, ginger, unfortunately the weather not helping in many parts of the country, in fact, some of the places that are facing the worst delays. Yes, a ground stop already this morning in houston because of that storm along that same cold front put on a couple of the airports you have to watch out for as it wraps up in minneapolis, chicago and detroit, all areas that were watching, not just, of course, for the air but the roads so we put the highways on here and stopped it just after 7 00 p. M. When a lot of people are going to try to beat the rush so areas you want to watch out for rain in chicago and detroit, cincinnati could get some too. Thats a look and starts to dwindle as it gets here by tomorrow morning, amy. Thanks so much. Also, breaking overnight, donald trump has tapped the first woman for a key position in his administration. South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley will be named the next u. S. Ambassador to the united nations. Even though she had been critical of trump during the campaign the president elect and his family are in palm beach to spend thanksgiving and the trip comes as trump changes course on some of his most Controversial Campaign promises. He is now backing away from a threat to prosecute Hillary Clinton saying it would be divisive for the country. Trump says he no longer wants to bring back waterboarding and now says he is keeping an open mind about Climate Change which he had dismissed as a hoax. Well, the most expensive Navy Destroyer ever built has broken down in the panama canal. The 4 billion uss zumwalt suffered an engineering problem just one month after it was commissioned.

Caleb schwab suffered a fatal neck injury after riding the slide in kansas. It will be demolished once the investigation is completed. And on this day before thanksgiving, heinz is recalling gravy because of a possible health risk. The company is recalling thousands of jars of its pork gravy because theyre mislabeled. They contain another flavor with milk and soy which could trigger allergies in some people. The jars have a best buy date of december 2017. And finally in addition to travel woes some of you might be worried about getting into some arguments at thanksgiving dinner this year because of politics. Well, guess what, youre not alone. The howtoavoidpoliticsatdinner has been trending. People are sharing their advice, talk about religion instead. Another person suggests tell your family you have a girlfriend and perhaps the best advice, just say, wrong in response to everything they say. How about that, guys . Very good suggestions. Thatll workment all very good suggestions there, amy, thanks very much. A little news that goes pop. Happy birthday, my friend. [ cheers and applause ] a little pop news and do you guys remember we told you all about a story earlier this month involving bruce springsteen. You may recall this image of some motorcycle riding veterans came to his aid when he broke down. That motorcycle was built for the boss by billy joel, it turns out. Who would have thunk. Joel reportedly told the crowd at his concert monday night, new Yorks Madison Square garden bruce borrowed his custom and this is a bike sacred cow bobber and loved that bobber so much billy had one made for him. They have been dear friends for a long time. Billy owns a motorcycle shop on long island, i also did not know that. Pop news is filled with little nuggets for you today. Exactly. So when joel found out about the breakdown he called springsteen to say it wasnt the bobber, was it, yeah, it was the bobber. Bruce told him no worry but as billy told the crowd, something my parents have always said, no good deed goes unpunished. How many times did you hear that. Oh, my gosh. Two great story, veterans picking him up and helping him on veterans day and built by billie joe. And it it was a clunker. No, it was not a clunker. Had a moment as we all do. Amen. My bobber is having a moment right now. Lets move on to the next story. Its a bike. Thank you. Thank you. To the man in the back, drinks are on me. Next up in pop news, many people may sing a disney song or to to their children as a lullaby. If you grew up in phil collins household, he turns it into a disney song. Lily collins revealed on Harry Connicks show a song we know and love youll be in my heart from tarzan in 1999 was written for her as a lullaby as a baby and went on, of course, to win an oscar and golden globe and, oh, a grammy for best soundtrack album. [ cheers and applause ] just got to say that is thats a lullaby. That is a good night song. Very sweet. Lots of little fun factoids. Birthday nuggets for you. Thank you. Robin, in san francisco, get ready for some turkey that help you lose weight. What . Take a look at this map. That is a running route through the city. Oh, no. No joke. No joke. The Fourth Annual turkey ride complete with feathers, a beak and thanksgiving hat, cyclist named point ret lobree took on the challenge along with four friends and said the hardest part was the turkeys wing. He tracked the route on his gps, that cool map you saw proves it. It even has the red thing which the bobber. No, its what is it called . We looked it up . Its not a dangle participle. It is not. Studio full of people. Nobody knows what thats called. Amy, where are you . We looked it up. Does anybody know what the red gobbler . Its called a waddle. A beard . No, that could be one term. In West Virginia its called a beard. But according to my sources wikipedia, it is called a waddle but its not but its spelled with ts. Wattle. Wottle. Twitter is lighting up with the answers right now. Thank you, america. It is a beard. It is a wottle. Happy thanksgiving. [ cheers and applause ] well done. Well done, indeed.

You dont just graduate from medical school, or something. And we dont just pull smoked chicken, bake fresh foccacia and handslice avocado. Theres nothing or something about it. As after a dvt blood clot,ital i sure had a lot to think about. What about the people i care about . Including this little girl. And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i asked my doctor. And he recommended eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Both made me turn around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis the right treatment for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. We invited women to a spa to dish soap. Body wash. You may not feel it, but some body washes can contain cleansers found in dish soap. Dove body wash is different. It has only the gentlest cleansers. It just made me feel good. This is dove.

The finalists have made it through 11 weeks, 114 dances and about a million and a half rhinestones so, audience, are you ready . [ cheers and applause ] are you ready at home . Here they are. Hit it, guys. Jenana and gleb. Calvin and lindsay. James and sharna. And your mirror ball champ, laurie and val. Dance. [ cheers and applause ] welcome. Congratulations. Thank you. Youngest dancing champ ever. What did it feel like . It felt amazing. I had that same joy as i had at the olympics. It was exciting. Cool. Its going to be kind of hard to top this year. I mean, the olympic medal, the mirror ball trophy. There was a lot that went on but im so grateful. Thats what we love about you. We can tell how grateful you are and grateful for this friend, val. Were so happy for you. [ applause ] you took great care of our ginger last season and we saw beginning then and continuing with laurie, i get to see a little bit of a different side of you. A little more emotional. Im getting older. What did laurie bring out in you. I think she brings out in me in what she brings out in millions, this youthful joy and, you know, a sense of gratitude to see that in a young person is very inspiring for anybody. We saw tears. I know. Ugliest crying. The new Michael Jordan meme. I meant it. You know, shes really special and i want her to do a good job. [ applause ] something for you, calvin. They call you megatron. One of the best Wide Receivers in the history of football but never danced in the end zone. Now you are a professional dancer. So what would your end zone dance look like now . Come back so we can see it. Show it off. What are you doing . Hey. [ applause ] look. How much you missed out on . You missed out on all that fun. You know when you were here last time, your sister was giving you a little bit of a hard time saying she was the dancer. We have a message from her now. Oh. Calvin, well, i know i said you couldnt dance so i really take it back. You really couldnt dance say a couple months ago but i dont know what lindsay did but you came out and were so proud of you and cant believe what youve done here and look forward to what you do in the future and we love you so much. [ applause ] the judges called you the miracle man of season 23. But was it hard to kind of go back to that crash . You know, in a lot of ways it was but at the same time there was some of this gap in my story as we talked about and i was so lucky that sharna was able to create something for me that filled that void and almost completed the story so for me it was almost closure on the whole thing and in a lot of ways i come away its a very rich experience for me to be honest. Ill bet it was. Ill bet it was and just brilliant. Say this every time you all are here, love the stars the way you come out. But your partners, these professional dancers really [ cheers and applause ] before we go lets put up a picture of this baby girl. What do you want to say to her this morning. I cannot wait to see her. I love you so much, baby girl. Well be right back. [ cheers and applause ] good morning everyone, its 8 27 on this wednesday november 23rd. Im matt odonnell. Its a travel day for some people. Lets check with karen rogers and traffic. Yeah, were pretty slow on i95 but not horribly so. 20 minute ride i95 southbound from woodhaven to the vine. Were looking live at cottman. Thats your southbound traffic head towards center city. And you can see youre a little jammed right here. Overall those travel times a bit slow on i95 and the schuylkill 26 minute ride eastbound from the blue route to the vine. Westbound really moving nicely. No problems at all on route 42 in new jersey but we do have another problem in new jersey. Kelly drive outbound at hunting park we have an accident blocking the right lane but heres the accident on the new jersey turnpike and chopper6 is overhead. Its involving an overturned dump truck. Theres gravel that spilled out all over on the highway. This is as youre heading southbound on the turnpike near exit eight. Watch for that in the outer lanes of the turnpike matt. It will take you a little longer traveling there if youre headed out for thanksgiving. Thanks karen. Lets turn to meteorologist, david murphy and its prethanksgiving forecast. David. We are off to a chilly start across the region. A little breezy matt but not as bad as the last couple of days. 34 degrees currently in philadelphia. Lots of areas still below the freezing mark. Your exclusive accuweather 7day shows sun in the morning and partly sunny skies later today. Less wind than the last couple of days all day long and a high of 49. For thanksgiving cloudy skies, there is the chance of a spotty shower at times. 52 is the high. Most of the showers in the afternoon but it might be a good idea to plan on at least checking out the forecast in the morning before you head to the parade maybe just plan on bringing an umbrella just in case some of those showers hit before the end of the parade. 52 is not too what. Not much wind. The balloons will fly tomorrow. Startup temperature at the parade about 43 and then matt on friday 56 with another shrug of rain arriving probably at night. Thanks, david. The 6abc Dunkin Donuts thanksgiving day parade is tomorrow. Coverage begins at 8 30 and we posted road closures on 6abc. Com. We are back now with our dancing afterparty. So much fun. You see outside in times square. [ cheers and applause ] we have dancing outside. We got dancing inside. We have the four finalists, the champ, laurie and val. Congratulations. Congratulations again. [ cheers and applause ] val, you talk so much about your brother maks, how he was able to you said about 90 of your Dance Education came i lied. You may want to reconsider it because maks is right here with us this morning. [ cheers and applause ] so what do you want to say to your brother . What do we want to say to him . Tatum and i talked about this right before. Were very proud. Were very proud. No, im very proud. I think, you know, this dancing with the stars has been my life for about a decade, you know, a lot of the pros, you all these guys throw a lot of amazing war stories our way and it seems like this show would not be possible without the four people leading the other four and its been an amazing season. I think everybody was deserving of a win. I was a big fan of calvin, james, jana, i got to know a little later after that rain dance, we had to turn off the tv. Lets talk about that. Its been amazing. Its been amazing but these two pulled it off. I got to work with laurie, an incredible young lady and the future for sure so were all lucky. And all loved. I love her face right next to yours. You and val probably started that young. We did, yeah, we had no choice, though, so [ laughter ] hey, you guys want to dance, sure, lets do it. It worked out for both of you pretty well. It really did and, jana, youre a Country Singer but also write a lot of your own songs so if you had to write one song about this season what would you call it . Oh, my goodness. Too many emotions to handle. I like that. I cannot lie go, val. That was good. Yeah, sorry. Glitter. Talk to you about that tango maks alluded to, maybe the hottest dance of the season, maybe the hottest weve ever seen. We cant show all of it. But tell me a little about what that was like and did it feel as good as it looked . It felt cold. If i could change one thing i would turn the heat in the water a little bit. I remember the first time we did it, it didnt work out and i thought to myself, its not going to work. This is actually the first time we did it and it worked. Yeah. Really . See, sometimes my gullible nature is correct. Blame it on the rain. James, you received one of the highest compliments ever from the judges. They said you were the best male dancer ever in the history ever. [ cheers and applause ] thats what the judges said and i think part of it is we knew that you didnt have any prior dance experience. You said you didnt even dance with your girlfriend before. I want to make it clear i paid julianne a lot of money to say that but it speaks volumes for the coach and the teacher that i had because i came in with zero experience. I dont think i ever danced sober before i got on the show and to go from that to where we ended up and having a compliment like that from julianne speaks volumes for this woman sitting next to me and everything she does as a coach. Sharna, you were injured, came back, all the way to second place, more dancing in the future i hope youll stay. Absolutely. Im not going anywhere. Incredible season for me and i love that i got to come back and be able to share those last two weeks with james. It was an amazing, amazing finale. Fun to watch. Absolutely. And calvin, you were at the top of your game. You know, pro football hall of famer soon in my opinion, but you gave it all up to spend more time with your 2yearold son so we saw him on the show last night, man. He must be so he must be proud of you. Oh, man, he is. He loves watching the show. Whenever he sees me dancing or sees any of us on tv jumping up and down with joy. A special moment. A tearjerker for me. You and lindsay magic out there on the dance floor and you had a lot of trust in him. He was throwing you over his head and everything like that. Yeah, i dont know why i trusted him so much but i just did. I mean he always delivered so it was awesome. It was really cool for me and tried things ive never done before and trusted me and went for anything i asked. I think the trust was mutual. I hope so. Yeah, it had to be with some of those throws you were doing. And, james, idina menzel said you should be on broadway. I want to give you three shows. Which one, which show you think you could star in. Hamilton. Right. Jersey boys or cats. Well cats. We know cats is calvins show so i wont take that from him and having met and, you know, got chat a little with mark ballas, maybe go with jersey boys. We decided to put together a little on dancing with the stars yearbook. So im going to call out a description. You have to point to the person who fits it best. Remember that part of the yearbook like most energetic. Who would get most energetic in this group. I had a feeling. Nugget. Who would be the class of 2016 class clown . Class clown. That works. Biggest risk taker. I know these are all and finally what about the biggest trash talker . Ooh. Whoa. [ applause ] okay, maks, you must be so proud at this moment. Jana is going, thank god they avoided me. Yeah, jana, are you a trash talker . No, he is. Im sarcastic. Welcome for the comedy. It will never happen again. Great sports and theres still more to come here because coming up our finalists are taking on our showstopper showdown inspired by dancing with the stars showstoppers night. That was really great. The guys will take on the ladies in a big broadway danceoff here. Come on back. Ill have that goat cheese garden salad. That gentleman got the last one. Sir, you give me that salad and i will pay for your movie and one snack box. Can i keep the walnuts . Sold. But i get to pick your movie. Can i pick the genre . Yes, but it has to be a comedy. A little cash back on the side. With the blue cash everyday card from american express, you get cash back on purchases with no annual fee. Throw. Its more than cash back. Its backed by the service and security of american express. Back now. Back now on Good Morning America, the dancing with the stars showstoppers night. We love that. One of our favorite themes this season. We just gave the finalists a huge challenge. They have to create a broadwaystyle showstopping number in just two minutes. Yeah, thats it. Here they are practicing during the commercial break. We gave them two minutes total. Well see share showdown in a moment but first a check of your local weather. Ginger we are dry but cold.

[ cheers and applause ] have a great thanksgiving, everybody. Good morning, its 8 56 on this wednesday november 23rd. Lets check in with karen rogers for a look at the roads and traffic. Matt in about an hour or so we start to really see some heavier volume with people traveling for the holiday and now weve got a new problem here with new Jersey Transit all trains on the northeast corridor seeing 30 minute delays because of overhead wire problems with amtrak. New delays coming in. 30 minutes along the northeast corridor with new Jersey Transit. River line shuttle busing and some of your normal minor delays on the regional rails like a 23 minute train late Paoli Thorndale 14 minute delay on a train with the doylestown line. New jersey turnpike if youre heading southbound at hyattstown we have this accident. Theyre trying to clean it up involving an overturned dump truck that was carrying gravel. Live on the schuylkill at montgomery drive you can steep eastbound traffic head towards the vine not looking too bad its slow but a 22 minute ride between the blue route the vine. Not horrible matt. Thank you karen. Lets turn to meteorologist, david murphy for the day before thanks giving forecast. Temperatures are improving a little bit matt but its still pretty cold. Take a look at the numbers and the best we can say is that the entire region is now over the freezing mark at least outside of the poconos. But still just a slight breeze and probably feeling like its below freezing in most spots. Your exclusive accuweather 7day shows a high of 49. Less wind overall today so that is a big improvement. There could be a spotty shower tomorrow most of action in the afternoon but you might want an umbrella or poncho at the parade just in case you get caught before the parade finishes matt. Thank you david. President elect donald trump confirms he wants South Carolina governor nikki haley to serve as ambassador to the United States nations more details on the position he offered to ben carson coming up on action news at noon. Live with kelly is next on 6abc. Joe jonas Bernadette Peters all on the show. Im matt odonnell. Have a great wednesday
