>> the latest is, of course, we had round one this morning. round two that comes in late tonight will be much different in many ways for our area. this is, as we told you, a storm system that covers a huge area. the storm, the main part of the storm is sitting down south. ahead of it, there have been thunderstorms in mississippi, alabama. back behind it, thunder snow. and some very strong winds. blizzard conditions in missouri, oklahoma, up into illinois. the rate on some of this snow has been tremendous. spots like miami, oklahoma, five inches of snow in just an hour and a half time. for us, winter weather advisory, the potential for more icing. last night we had about .10 of an inch of precip. tonight we're expecting a half of an inch of precip. these are the locations where for a short time period all the wayne down to prince county there could be a bit of icing for a period until the rain starts to move in. thunderstorms making their way through areas of kentucky and around tennessee. a few breaks there in the overcast skies that we have had throughout the area. this is an nbc news special report. here is brian williams. >> reporter: good day from cairo in egypt, where right now president hosni mubarak is addressing the nation. this is apparently a taped speech which was taped earlier today, and is just now being played back by egyptian state television and picked up by other networks. in the talk so far, he has used the phrase "peaceful transition of power." he has said this can be debated as to what's in his heart, and his truthfulness, that it was his intention not to stand for re-election in this coming election. he has also said that people who follow him in office should follow what americans would call term limits, limits on their time in office. that has not been a problem faced by hosni mubarak in egypt. and some of this great people's uprising, this protest, has been about his leadership, but also the notion that this was going to become a dynasty. that after hosni mubarak, his son would come up after him. we are joined by our chief foreign correspondent richard engel here in egypt. you've been listening to it in arabic. we've been listening to the english translation. what has gotten your attention so far? >> it doesn't seem like this is going to be enough to stop the demonstrations. we spoke with leaders from the protest movement. this was anticipated that he would make this kind of concession, which is his biggest concession yet. they told us it is not nearly enough. the next elections are supposed to take place in september. so even if he says he won't run again for another six-year term, he would be in power until september. demonstrators don't feel he won't step down after that, or bring a friend into power. >> we were talking about this earlier, the tone and tenor of this crowd today was almost like it was a done deal. it was almost joyous, like their work had been accomplished. and you and i also heard people and saw at least one sign saying let's not ruin the progress we've made already. meaning in this demonstration. remember, we are one egypt. >> people were praying in the square, very close to here. they knew he was about to make this announcement. they were hoping, and hoping that he would come out and say, i am stepping down. i am leaving the country. they were raising their hands up to the sky. that is not what they heard. instead, they heard we will engage in more dialog. we will have term limits. i will finish my presidency, but i won't step down right now. >> hosni mubarak has come out again with what he i'm sure considers a sweeping concession, which as richard states, may not be enough for the protesters. a complete wrap-up tonight on "nbc nightly news" from cairo. for richard engel, i'm brian williams, nbc news. we turn to our other big story in this country, the massive storm. >> veronica? >> thanks a lot, guys. the difference between this storm system and the last storm, the last storm we stayed cold. this time we start cold and warm up. as a matter of fact, tomorrow morning may be a little weird, because temperatures may push into the 50s during the morning before they start crashing during the afternoon. the other thing, last time, we didn't get a lot of precip out of it. well, with the next time, we will, around a half of an inch or so. again, the possibility of thunderstorms, too, for tomorrow morning. we're going to see a lot of wind, too, back behind this system, when it moves out. we could be looking at more power outages throughout the area with it. that's a big concern for us here. as we take a look at your goodnight forecast, temperatures by 7:00 p.m., down to 35 degrees. the precip moves in around midnight. temperatures will be cooling for a period of time before they start warming up. so between about 11:00 p.m. and about 4:00 a.m. in the morning, that's when we could have the possibility of more freezing rain around the area. i'm going to show you a couple of maps, too, that show in detail which counties have the possibility of seeing freezing rain and at what time. the ice not expected to be widespread. then tomorrow afternoon, we could actually break out with a little bit of sunshine. but again, the wind the big story with this system, after a little bit of icing tomorrow morning. >> thanks, veronica. the last thing pepco wants or needs right now is another power outageing debacle. crews are on standby and even more have been brought in from out of town. tracey wilkins has that report. >> reporter: there are literally hundreds of power trucks on the ground in the pepco service area with most focusing on montgomery county, where today's storm is expected to do some damage. many of the crews are from out of town, like this one, from raleigh, north carolina. you guys are rested and ready to go? >> yes, we. just waiting for the second round. >> reporter: pepco's planning to get ahead of this storm. the yutility are bringing in moe out-of-state resources. >> here in montgomery county we have over 300 trucks, over 600 crew members here. pre-positioned. also in rockville service center and southern portions of montgomery county. we have another staging area. and in prince george's county. >> reporter: pepco's last outage from wednesday's storm was prepared yesterday at 6:00 p.m. tens of thousands of power lines throughout the system came down. at its height there were 190,000 customers without power. pepco faced scathing criticism for slow restoration times from customers to the governor of maryland. something they're hoping to avoid this time. >> what we would like to do and planning to do this time, because we have more men in position, is we're going to watch and monitor the storm. if the ice does form, on the tree limbs, on the power lines, we plan to be more responsive to our customers. >> reporter: virginia dominion power men say their crews are resting, that they restored the last of their outages from the previous storm on friday. and now they're making sure that the crews are prepared for whatever else may be coming our way shortly. but they're not expecting this storm to create a new problem. in montgomery county, tracee wilkins, news 4. it's media day at the super bowl. and guess what took center stage. hair. she's not even a decade old, but she's doing what it takes most people decades to do. and i haven't been here in probably seven years. very excited to be here. >> oh, welcome back. we're thrilled to have you. snooki took d.c. by storm at the auto show last night. plus, the latest on a mother who used hot sauce to reprimand her child. that story is coming up at 4:30. she is one of the most recognizable members of the "jersey shore" cast. yesterday nicole came to the washington area. >> we know her better as snookie, right?

here. >> sounds dramatic. >> this is a system that is really going to paralyze parts. country, with the ice, with the wind, with the snow, the heavy snow and high winds there, too, back behind it. for us, it's going to be kind of weird overnight/morning as we go through the next couple of hours here, where we're going to be getting the rain. temperatures will be warming. we were talking during the break it's going to be kind of oddly mild during the morning, where we see temperatures shoot from the upper 30s and low 40s, into the 50s in just a few short hours. and could, again, hear a little bit of thunder. 37 degrees right now. of course, this morning we had a little bit of light icing and even had freezing fog. 37 now with a windchill of 32. winds are out of the south-southwest at 7 miles per hour. look at what the southerly wind is doing for points south. 46 in fredericksburg. again, we are in the 30s. so the idea here is for the overnight period, there will be moisture overrunning the area. and warmer air overrunning the area. but keep in mind those points north of us, frederick county, baltimore, around carroll county, northern loudon county, where the air will stay trapped a little longer is where there could be a little icing taking place. the red, chicago, st. louis, missouri, shy of oklahoma city right now, blizzard warnings. this is wind-driven snow, one to two feet expected around st. louis and up around chicago. the kind of snow where you can't see across the street. and a heavy ice event east of that. temperatures, 22 in chicago. 21 degrees right now in dallas, texas. over the last 24 hours, they've seen a 20 to 30-plus temperature drop. the cold air really rushing in behind this system. so again, a very dramatic system. the next 48 hours, again, moisture overruns the area. warm air overruns the area. by tomorrow morning, around 7:00 a.m., we're still wet. that rain should start to move out of here about 9:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m. we're going to see rapid clearing. we'll see sunshine in here for tomorrow afternoon. but it will be not only breezy, but i think it will be gusty and even windy at times tomorrow. that's why we could see power outages around the area. this is 6:00 a.m. tomorrow, 38 degrees. 55 quickly by 1:00. we rise quickly, and will fall into the 20s or 40s, that is, by the time we get to 6:00. and cold air stays with us. 20s and 30s for high temperatures. here's the idea. for tomorrow morning, a low impact with icing in the blue. that's for d.c. points west. moderate impact to the north. northern howard county, northern areas of montgomery county, could still see a few delays tomorrow morning. it all lifts up to the north by the time we get to about 7:00 a.m., as the rain takes over and the wind takes over. 30 to 38 degrees this evening. 32 to 36 degrees for the overnight. for the morning, 34 to 40. the winds will start as the rain moves out. 58 degrees the high, and falling then for the evening tomorrow. as you take a look at the four-day forecast, we could be looking at another event on saturday. we'll talk more about that coming up in just a few minutes in your extended forecast. >> all right. thank you, veronica. still to come on news 4 at 4:00, a mother faces charges for giving her child hot sauce after she appeared on dr. phil's show. how you can pre welcome back at 4:30, everybody. >> some breaking news out of egypt this afternoon. president hosni mubarak has just addressed his nation in a taped speech played back on state tv. mubarak used the phrase peaceful transition of power, but indicated he plans to stay in office until his term enter in september. it's not what the opposition wanted to hear. today an estimated 1 million people took to the streets of cairo and demanded he step down by friday. in the wake of scathing criticism again for its performance during the storm, pepco's hoping to be ahead of the game for this round. the utility's already brought crews in from out of town, and has teams staged throughout our region. the last of the outages from last wednesday's storm was just repaired yesterday. across the country, more than 4,500 flights have been canceled because of the monster storm. newark and chicago were the worst hit with 600 cancellations each. in our area, dozens of flights were canceled because planes just couldn't

driven by strong earnings reports today and a surge in manufacturing. a massive winter storm is carving a dangerous path across the nation. nearly a third of the country will battle snow, sleet and high winds. >> we have team coverage now of how this storm is shaping up right now. we start in kansas city, missouri. >> reporter: the snow just continues to fall. it's only been falling for a couple hours, and look at this. the parking lots have definitely a couple of inches of powdery snow in them. this is what is covering our main streets, residential streets, our interstates. snow-packed roads that drivers are having a tough time getting around in. we're in the emergency operation center parking lot for our city, where all of our city officials are in this kind of war room trying to battle the blizzard of 2011. >> i'm jim cantore in chicago. things are moving along now. the rush hour is getting started early here because the blizzard is coming in. by the latter part of the rush hour we expect to be in whiteout conditions in through here. mass transit's doing fine here, but expected to be heavily impacted as is the city as we go through tomorrow. if there's any saving grace for
