Welcome to today on a wednesday morning. Lets put the satellite image back up. You can think, there is nothing good about that system moving across. A lot of the country has been dealing with it, and i think theyll see it on the east coast today, too. Grab your umbrella. The weather is our top story. Impacting tens of millions. Blinding snow and winds across the midwest to damaging rnadoes. Jacob rascon is in collinsville, mississippi. This s s the First Baptist church in collinsville, mississippi. The roof was torn off. The pastor a a his family were still inside. Reporte facetoface with a monster tornado. Storm chasers running for their lives. This is going to be crazy. Go, go, go reporter the twister hopscotching through a neighborhood and College Campus in rural alabama. While in collinsville, mississippi, a direct hit. Two dozen homes damaged or destroyed. The First Baptist Church Next Door ripped in half. You can see the complete devastation of our church. Its unbelievable. Reporter while pastor ricks and his family were still inside. My wife and i, my son came over to the church because we have cinder block walls, and found a room and got under the desk. Within seconds, stuff started falling everywhere. Reporter more than a dozen tornadoes reported in the south. Part of a massive winter storm that pummelled the midwest and plains with heavy sno and high winds. Millions of americans in the storms path. Some losing everything but the clothes on their backs. Others nearly losing it all. National Weather Service forecasters will be out later today to survey the damage and determine just how difficult, just how bad this tornado was. The pastor will also be back out here, and i took a tour of the damage in the neighborhood behind the church. Some of the homes, there is nothing left.

Lets turn to the president ial race. The candidates are setting their sights on the next prize in the campgn, New Hampshire. In a moment, well talk to donald trump and Bernie Sanders, the front runners in the granite state. Lets get the latest on both races. First, kristen welker, covering the race between sanders and clinton. Good morning to you. Matt, good morning. Bernie sanders has a double digit lead over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, but she won this state in 2008. Shes tryingo convince voters, including at this Campaign Event here in deary later today, not to count her out. Reporter the fight for New Hampshire now in high gear. Both demratic candidates campaigning late into the night. In iowa, we took on the most powerful Political Organization in the country. I hope you will choose with both your heart and your mind. R porter it comes on the heels of a hardfought battle in iowa. Clinton edging sanders by a hair. On tuesday, she claimed victory. And i am so thrilled that im coming to New Hampshire after winning iowa. Reporter clinton increasingly trying to tap into thth ideals propelling sanders surge. I am a progressive who likik to get things done. Im actually a progressive who likes tooake progress. Funny thing. Reporter but sanders is resonating with young vots in a way clinton isnt. He beat her 84 14 with that group in iowa. Does it concern you when you realize shes not connecting with Younger Voters . I think itll come around. The more that the young vote listens to Hillary Clinton, i think theyll start to realize that she is going to be the candidate to get things done for them. Reporter in sanders, some democrats are seeing flashbacks of Barack Obamas appeal in 2008. Former president bill clinton didiissed the idea in an interview with andrea mitchell. Baracac obama is not Bernie Sanders. Reporter sanders strong showing in iowa has energized supporters. Here in New Hampshire, his backyard, hes up by double digits. His promise of taking on the establishment striking a cord with independents. Arguing hes the only progressive in the race. We began the political revolution, not just in iowa, not just in New Hampshire, but all over this country. Sanders Campaign Officials tell me this morning they raised 3 million in the 24 hours after iowa. The most single haul in one day for that campaign. Secretary clinton campaigns here in New Hampshire today, but her husband, former president bill clinton, will be campaigning in South Carolina, the state that votes after New Hampshire. Thats where she has a sizable lead. Matt and savannah . Kristen welker, thank you very much. Senator Bernie Sanders is with us now from his home state of vermon good to see you. Ood morning. The results in iowa were as close as they could, but iowa Officials Say Hillary Clinton is the winner. Do you accept that . Well, sure. She ends up getting about 22 delegates. We got about 20 delegates. We started that campapan 40 or 50 p pnts down. We ended up losing it by 0. 2. The iowa caucus is complyicated and its not 100 sure we didnt win it. We feel fantastic. We came a long way in iowa and now were in n hampshire. We have a lot going on would you contest the results . Were looking at it right now. But the important point is, at the end of the day, we came from where to really startle the entire world. We took on the most powerful Political Organization in the United States of america and, you know, nearly won that race. Lets pick up on that, senator sanders. You raised 20 million in january. Your Campaign Says you raised 3 million in the last 36 hours. So you move into New Hampshire with a big lead in the polls, as thee candidate from the neighboring state, and with more money in the bank than the head of what you call the biggest Political Organization in this country. No, no, no, matt. Thats not accurate. Hillary clinton has a super pac. I dont have a super pac. I understand that. In termsms of the campaigns direct financing. Well, that doesnt matter. You have a super pac, which has 25 million from secretary clinton. 15 million coming from wall street. Our Campaign Contribution are 27 a piece coming from 3. 5 llion individual contributions. Also, when we go into New Hampshire, lets not forget, Hillary Clinton won New Hampshire in 2008. She has a strong organization. Her husband ran two campaigns. I understand that, senator. Given what the circumstances are right now, would anything less than a resounding victory in New Hampshire be disappointing for you . U . Know. Every state you go to, thats what the media says. Whats in iowa . Whats iNew Hampshire. Its important to us. We want to win it. Then were going to nevada and we have a shot to go there. Then were going to South Carolina andndwisconsin. Every state is important. Were in this race to represent working people whose standard of living has gone down, in a nation which has massive income and wealth inequality and a corrupt campaign finanan system. Were going all the way to the convention. We have the momentum. I think people are tired of establishment politics and establishment economics. Senator, lets talk about the issue of electability. Its something Hillary Clinton raises a lot on the ail. Ill put it to you a different way, in terms of per electability. Said youre sick of hearing about them. You said its a serious issue but youve set it aside. Ould voters factor that in . Should they consider the fact that this s an issue that clinton faces, for better or worse, over which she has no control . Does it affect herelectability . Savannah, i think all issues affect eltability. What i will tell you is two things. Number one, i you look at the match up polls recently, Bernie Sanders against republican candidates, we are doing very, very well. We beat mr. Trump by a whole lot, more t tn Hillary Clinton. Second of all, democratsin when voter turnout is high. Republicans win when voter turn outis low is low. I think our campaign has the people, lower income people, all voters to come out. We appreciate your time, senator sanders. Thank you very much. Thank you. We moveeo the republicans. Donald trump lookiki to rebound in New Hampshire after its second place finish in iowa. Laying some of the blame on his decision to skip last weeks debate. Well talk to mr. Trump live, straight ahead. First, lets go to Peter Alexander for more on the republican race. Peter, good morning. Savannah, good morning to you. The man who is all about winning, donald trump, is now trying toet back to it here this morning. Down playing his defeat in wa. Here in New Hampshire, hes going to rely on a much more heavily libertarian minded, less evangelical group of voters, to reset the race. As one trumpmp supporter told him, we will fix iowas mistake. Reporter here in the live free or die state, a he crowd reaffirming Donald Trumps campaign is very much still alive. There were 17 people when we started. Now you he 11. Im not humiliated. Reporter trump mocking reports that iowa made him a loser and marco rubio, who finished third, a winner. Winner of the night, marco rubio. Trump, humiliated. Reporter also acknowledging his absence at the fox news debate last week mayave affected the outcome. I think it could have been the debate. I think people were disappointed i didnt go in the debate. Reporter trump returved to his familiar form and a familiar target, ted cruz. What kind of people do we have running for office . No, honestly, really, really dishonest,t,nd i think i know why. You know why . Because he was born in canada. He gets the nomination, theyre going to sue his [ bleep ]. Reporter fresh off his win, cruz is eyeing both New Hampshire and more conservative South Carolina. Its primary is two weeks away. Last night, weeard a howl coming from the potomac. Reporter a trio of governors staking their claims here, setting their sights on each other and marco rubio. Chris christie with kelly odonnell. Hes the boy in the bubble. Never answers questions, very controlled. The boy in the bubble has to get out of the bubble if he wants to be president of the united ates. Reporter rubios rebuttal with gabe gutierrez. Its been a tough couple of days. Some people react badly to adversity. Reporter the states wild card, john say kich, risekasich, rising to second in many polls, vying for a breakout moment. My tone is different. Its a tone of inclusiveness, helping people to get up. Youre not going negative against your opponents now because you think its not the right tone for the party . Well, its not just not the right tone for the party, its not the tone for me. This morning, donald trump is boasting the endorsement of a former massachusetts senator, scott brown. Out one of his top surrogates. Former first lady, barbara bush, 90 years old, will join him on the trail tomorrow. Peter, thank you so muchch donald trump is on the phone with us. Mr. Trump, good morning. Good morning. I have to say, savannah and i were talking, we had the chance to interview you when we were in iowa on monday morning. We were both a little surprised at how understated and subdued you sounded on the air that morning. Had members of your team given you a hint of what might be to no. Im just trying to be a little bit more understated and statesmanlike. Some people like that and some pepele dont, actually. No, i dont think so. Not at all. I me, i think, you know, when it comom to iowa, i was not supposed toven go there. A lot of people thought i wouldnt do well in iowa. Iade a decision to go because i know some of the people and theyre great people. I came in second. You know, which is a good finish. You have 11 people, and you started off with 17. I came in second. What do you think happened . Well, i dont know. I mean, i didnt lose by much, and i got m me votes other than ted, i got more votes than anyone in the history of the republican caus. I got a lot of votes and came in a solid second. The person that came in third, marco, a good guy, but he came in third and they made i i sound like he had one of the best victories of all time. I came in second and nobody said it was a victory. It was sort of strange. And you do bristle att the fact that people are saying this was devastating for you. I would agree. I was reading online, mr. Trumu, yesterday, and the gist seemed to be, now were going to find out what donald tmp is made of. Does he have the gut . Does he have the heart to fight this long fight . How would you answer that question . Well, ive been winning all my life, matt, and its what ive done. Well see what happens. Im doing very well in New Hampshire. Was supposed to be my first stop, really. I think im very happy i did the whole thing in iowa because i came in second. Governors. They do it professionally. Ive never done this before. Im not a professional politician. I come in second and they dont. It was a big story, that i came in second. I dont know why. But i was actually semisatisfied with it. I guess one poll came out, or a poll came out saying i might win it by four or five points. You know, that didnt happen. I think caucuses are hard to po, by the way. I was going to bring that up. You love the polls. its a big feature of your speech. A lot of the polls, not just the des moines register, had you winning. Did you lose faith in the polls . When you poll a caucus, its tough. Its a much more complex process. Its probably harder to poll a caucus. No, im a believer in polls, but i think when it comes to a complex caucus like that, i think its probably hard t poll. Donald trump, well be speaking to you again. Thank you. The more understated, subdued mr. Trump. Thank you for your time. Thank you, matt. There are new fears over zika this morning. Health officials in dallas reporting a person there has become infected with the virus through sexual contact. This is a first here in the u. S. Amid the outbreak that is being called a Global Health emergency. Dr. Natalie azar is an nbc news medical contributor. Good morning. When i read this headline, it jumped off the page. The notion that it could be sexually transmitted. First of all, is that certain or is it a suspicion that it might be . Whatatoes it mean for the spread of the virus . They are fairly certain that thats the case. They havent told us the facts yet. They havent fully confirmed that there wasnt another mosquito. Listen, the contact of a person who had traveled from venezuela who contracted the zika virus. Without any evidence of a mosquito bite. What worries me about that is youve told us in the past that many o othe people who have the virus are asymptatic. Yeah. During sexual contact obviously, condoms are one idea but if you dont know the person has the virus. Thats whe we are now. The cdc made it very, v vy clear that their charge in the upcoming days is to give the guidance now to the American People about what they should be doing. In particular, sexually active partners of women who may be pregnant or trying to become pregnant. Its important to note this is not surprising. Its certainly unwelcomed news, but this is not the first documented case of sexual transmission. We had a case in 2008. We also have evidence virus can be in semen and urine. Importantly, to reiterate, the main mode of transmission is still thought to be mosquito bites. But this does raise a new concern for people. I will also point out that in england, they have a protocol in place. If you have a documented infection, the man is to wear a if there is exposure w whout documented infection, its a differen timeline. The cdc wants to get informbtion on how long the virus can be seen in sexual secretions and inform their guidance based on that knowledge. Dr. Azar, thank you. Swinging this direction now.

This morning on rossen reports, Airline Passengers abusing the system to get their pets on flhts for free. Jeff rossen and his Team Discover just how easy it is to get an animal on board. Jeff, good morning to you. Good morning. We complain about leg room, right . Its the least of your issues on your next flight. What if you got on board and there was a miniature horse or kangaroo sitting next to you, encroaching on your space . Lieve it or not, its happening. You can bring almost any animal on a plane, as long as they are certified as an emotional support animal. Must be hard to get one of those official letters, right . Buckle up. You wont believe what we got on board. Reporter pets on planes. From dogs to really big dogs. Even turkeys, sitting in coach. This recent photo going viral. They dont need a ticket. They have something better. An emotional support vest and official letter from a Mental Health professional. Snakes,irds, pigs. Reporter some flight atten attendants are mortified. You get on the aircraft these days and the cabin looks like a barnyard. Reporter there are legitimate cases of people who need an emotional support pet, abusing the system. Its out of control. Often, its about the money. One way to travel with a pet on some airlines can be up to 600. If that animal is designated as an emotional support animal, it gets to come wh you for free. Reporter so how easy is it . There are plenty of websites offering esa certifications. All y y have to do is fill out a questionnaire. What type of animal do you have . Dog. Reporter i go online and d it. How often have you been sleeping less than usual . Often. I work on a morning show. A few clicks later. Book. Jeffrey, you are a good candidate for an emotional support animal. Great. Reporter for 1, i get it. Then they email me this official letter from a real Mental Health professional. I never met with her. I never even spoke to her. Come on. Reporter before you know it, im flying with rory. Im boarding the flight and they didnt ask to see the letter. No problems. Reporter and because r ry is an emotional support animal, she can ride in my lap. No crate required. Stay on my seat, rory. Reporter in fact, we take two flights. Were going up. Reporter the airline never asks a thing. So i just flew with a dog. Were going to ramp this up. This is my producer lindsey. You are certifying a different animal. What kind . I certified an emotional support pig. Emotional support pig. Did you have to meet anybody . No. Same with a dog . Exactly. Youre going to fly with a pig. Sure thing. Reporter thats spencer, a 3 month old potbelly pig. Borrowed him from a pig farm. Remember, hes now an emotional support animal. At security, the agent asks for proof. Thank you. Reporter no problem. Remember, we have that secret weapon, the letter. Were boarding. Reporter on board, spencer ge to sit on her lap, too. Pig on a plane. Reporter this pig flies round trip. On the second leg, agents ask lindsey for the letter at the Gatete Spencer gets right on again. People are definitely abusing the system. We see it every day. Reporter disability experts say our experiments showing how out of control its become. There are people watching this right now who do this. Saying, who am i hurting . Youre passing yourself off a person with disability, and it can be consequences for those who need the animals. Reporter until theres a crackdown, this could be sitting next to you on your next flight. The pig is cute though. By the way, delta told us its policies are aligned with federal regulations and often review them. Reserving the right to evaluate each case. Experts say the best way to get this under control is develop a standardized certification system where owners have to meet with the doctors to prove they need it. Theres also the issue of safety here. Emotional support animals are not required to have any formal training, like wrangler, for example. Thats why im in the orange roro. Wrangler is being trained as a service animal. There is a difference between Service Animals and emotional support animals. Wrangler is here getting trained. The emotional support animals, because they arent trained, can be disruptive in flights. There was a case of a dog that went to the bathroom in the aisle. Had too make an emergency landing. Really . Wow. Thankwhat about people with allergies . Thats the other thing. They wont serve you peanuts on a planef somebody has an allergy. If you have an alllrgy to the dog, you cant do anything about it because its considered you have a disability when you get the letter. Seems way out of hand. Yeah. Jeff, thank you very much. Coming up on pop start, why youre about to see a whole lot of lady gaga. Plus, carson is back. Yay hi, how are you . He has a behind the scenes look at what will have you talking. Hello, carson.

It really, really is. I mean, i understudied the girl at yale Repertory Theater in 2009, the role i playn the show. I remember making a promise to myself that i had to play thi role. The fact that i get to play this role and i get to do i on broadway, i mean, its more than i could have asked for. You are an accomplished stage actress, and`thats actually your background. You went to yale school of drama. Is there a different feel when its broadway, which is, you know, for an actor, the absolute, you know exactly what you want to do .

Coming up next, could your relationship survive the marriage test . Why one couple put themselves really through the ringer on purpose to get ready for marriage. First, this is today on nbc. Hoorah were back at 8 46 with an important question. How do you know if the person youre dating is the one . Jill andrewss andnd brook silvabraga created 40 dates to simulate the challenge of real marriage and determine their fate. Hello. O. Im brook. Hello, im jill. Ware the couple behind if the marriage test. Measure a lifetime of compatibility. Brook and jill dated fiver year years, traveled the world and lived together. One question remained uncertain. Would they take the next big step together and become husband and wife . Many of the things that ultimatelyreak up marriages are really hard to practice for until youre married. We wanted to step back and pressure test our relationship. Reporter from finances to family, the test tackled issues that can make or break a marriage. For one month, we are spending half of what we normally do. For month, we swapped credit cards. Going on a lunch date with our exs. Reporter they documented their journey along the way. Simulate the exhaustion of new parenthood, were not going to let ourselves sleep for more than three straight hours. Each time were woken up, well pull out an activity and have to complete it before we go to bed. We needed a baby, so we had a 12 pound watermelon to be our newborn for the week. Mel required a lot of attention. Our friends gave us their baby. 9 month old jack for 24 hours in our care. Press a button . Reporter some tests led to a few laughshs were going to handcuff ourselves to each other for 24 hours. Reporter some to tears. Do we want to talk about this . The things that scare us, were talking about them in a way that in your day to day life, it doesnt come up. We think couples looking for more certainty before taking the big step toward forever might find these dates useful, too. Brook and jill, authors of the marriage test, are with us now. Spoiler alert, did it work . Are you marry snd. We are, yeah. Do you think going through the tests clarified things for you . Absolutely. Yeah. Wed been dating a fewears but with a yearlong breakup in the middle. We reached a place where a lot of couples do. We lovoveach other but how does the couple know how theyll be at marriage, when things that trip up marriage, you dont experience when youre dating. Raising a family, combining money. These tests made it easier for us to make the step. Whose fault was the breakup . No, im kidding. Read the book. Which was the most challenging date foror you two . One of the early dates we did fofo a month, we tried to live on half of what we normally spend. Ople say, money is a tough thing in all relationships. I think i poo pooed that a little bit. Then you get into it and almost immediately, there was tension. We werent getting along so well. I cameway from that month thinking, i have a lot of respect f how tough those moments can be for a healthy relationship. Which test was your fafarite . We did a lot were complicated. One was simple, we didnt use electronics flr a week outside of work hours. It was relaxing. I slept better. Connected in all the ways a couple connects. It was a good week. Dc you think this would work for everybody . Version of this . Absolutely. So a great date we recommend for people, what we did, we recorded a fight and listened to ourselves back about a week later when we cooled off. Thats courageous. Turns out, i talk a lot. I dont let brook get all the words in. We recommend everyone give Something Like that a shot. It can help. I think the most important thing i did for us is when we went through the stressful parts of getting engaged and married, wed already dealt with this. Long before we were engaged, wed had a conversation about the religion wed raise our kids. The prenuptial agreement, raising kids. What could you not have prepared for . Writing a book together. Kidding. Its a great idea. The book is called the marriage test. Jill and brook, thank you. Thank you. Tiffani thiessen is here to make a recipe for your super bowl party.

This week, the World Health Organization declared zika a Global Health emergency. Transmission of the zika virus has been confirmed in 29 countries and territories throughoututouth america, latin america, polynesia and the caribbean. N now, it is hitting even closer to home with the first zika virus case acquired through sexual transmission in dallas county. If a zika carrying mosquito bites a prprnant mother, the unborn child can be at great risk. Right now, about 4,000 babies in brazil alone have been born with microcephaly. Its a serious birth defect that affects the brain. Experts say that for most people, the zika virus presents with mild symptoms, including fever, rash, joint pain or pink eye. Between zika and guillainbarre syndrome. Its rare but a disease yet to confirmed by the cdc. The cdc has put out a travel warning to avoid for pregnant women or women trying to be pregnant,o avoid zikainfected areas. Women who have been infected should wait two years to become pregnant. Lels send it over to willie and dr. Azar for more. Dr. Azar is here with us. Good morning. Lets talk about this dallas case. I think a lot of people werent paying close attention to zika in the country and all of toa sudden perked up. It was transmitted sexually from someone who vited the countries where weve seen zika. What does it tell you . Gives us more evidence about a suspicious weve had. There are documented cases in the literature. One in 2008. A physician was in senegal and infected with zika, came back to more recently in 2013, with the very largege outbreak in french polynesia, there was a man whose men and urine tested positive for zika. The idea that t can be transmitted with blood transfusion or through sexual contact is not necessarily new, Ground Breaking or surprising. As i stated earlier this morning, its certainly unfortunate and unwelcomed news. Now, its a whole other set of protocols and precautions we need to talk about in light of this outbreak. Does this mean, dr. Azar, someone coming back from one of these countries with zika should remain abstinent . If so, how long . We dont have guidance on that yet. We intend on having that in the next coming days, per the cdc. I will state though that our friends colleagues in england have a protocol already in place. Zika infection returns from where he is, he should use a condom for six months. If a man has had potential exposure, which could be being in an area where zika is transmitted, the recommendation there is to wear a condom four weeks, one month. At issue here is that we dont know how long the virus, number one is still detectable in sexual secretions, and even if detectable, is it infectious . Can it be transmitted . That right now is the next step for the cdc and researchers in brazil to try to get as much information as possible, so they can inform their guidance for us. Quick bottom line before we go. For people watching this at home, how concerned should people in the United States be about zika right now . I think the concern hasnt changed all that much, in terms of location, first of all. Travel to areas where rival transmission is ongoing and bringing back the infection to the united stas is an issue. One thing we didnt get a chance to talk about so much today is the potential, you know, serious complication of a neurological illness causing paralysis,hich has been linked to zika. This is a moving i cant think of the word. Target. Theres more questions to be answered through this. Dr. Azar, thank yououo much. Thanks, willie.
