along the coast though it s warm. so we have got a rain-wind event. some ice mixed in across interior sections and then all snow for parts of upstate new york and pennsylvania in towards new england. there is the future track. so it s going to be with us throughout the day today. strong gusty winds are going to be along the coast. flood advisories posted as well. those are your wind alerts and in some cases especially for new england, hurricane force winds. so the boston area upwards of 7o throughout the day today. so that water is going to continue to move inland and there is your wind gust forecast, 30, 40 miles per hour. that s definitely going to cancel flights and going to be problematic on the roads as well, so,be safe. if you don t have to be outside, if you don t have to be on the roads, i would highly recommend you stay indoors and make sure that the first responders are able to get out there and clear the roadways. all right. steve, and rachel, and brian? brian: i think eve
guys, toss it back to you. rachel: looks beautiful there thanks for that report. thank you. rachel: all right. let s turn now to senior meteorologist janice dean who is tracking the storm. janice: we had epic snowfall totals across the south. over a foot of snow for parts of south carolina and north carolina. here are some of the totals that we re looking at right now. over 15 inches in north carolina. of course, the storm started across the plain states. arkansas, 14 inches, iowa over a foot of snow. and we will definitely see over a foot of snow for the interior northeast. but, also, the ice reports, okay, like a half an inch of ice on the roads and the power lines in south carolina and that s why we have tens of how far to sands of people without power today. and the temperatures are cold. so this is going to be an ongoing story. the good news is, it s a holiday, so a lot of people are off the roads. they are not driving into work. there is the future track. we are still goi
youngkin decided to take these steps. run for office and actually uphold the promises that he made. steve: well. he absolutely was trying to honor that campaign promise. but, and so it will be in effect. he got rid of the mask mandate for schools. except in the counties of arlington as we just heard, richmond, alexandria and fairfax. they all say that their mask policies will stay in effect. but, rachel, the governor said i ve got some legal options. i m going to look at things and figure out what i can do to follow through with what i promised. rachel: if this is my problem with glenn youngkin s approach. i don t mean to rain on the parade. i m happy for that parent and i would like to be optimistic. i m just not that optimistic. and i m not a fan of his approach. is he going to spend the rest of his time fighting and litigating these schools because, as you can see from the reaction, just to taking off a mask, that they

method and way. but all the big things he is trying to do and the things he is trying to promote, he is just trying to do them with sun side. that s why he was promoting and speaking out in atlanta last week at that voting rights bill down at the martin luther king center down in atlanta, and, brian, you mentioned maureen dowd. peggy noonan over the weekend page of the wall street journal wrote with that speech it was so toxic and so one sided and so political. he may actually have damaged his presidency which coming from her says something, rachel. rachel: yeah. it s just interesting to me with carville that he would say let s talk about full stomachs and warm houses well, heating costs are up like 125%. and full bellies, well it s hard to do that when your grocery store bill is through the roof. it s special hard on poor people
