finally, figure skating continues with the ice dance competition now under way, always fun, and especially fun when you re watching these two. the reigning u.s. champs, madison chock and evan bates, told us that while they may look pretty, their outfits present their danger. listen. we do a lot of acrobatic lifts where she s kind of rolling around my neck or might brush across my face. when you think about those 10,000 little rhinestones that are glued on there, they re like spikes. daggers. it s like lifting a spiked human or a human in a spiked dress. but all in the name of looking good. reporter: team usa is sitting in third and fourth, and just outside the medal position the finale is tonight east coast time. we ll see if they can avoid danger and maybe come home with a medal. fingers crossed for them. coy wire, thank you so much, buddy.
this is my double-take headline of the morning, the winter olympics are being interrupted by winter weather. ironic there. let s check in with coy wire, who is in china. you re in the mountains a few hours from beijing, but talk to us about the impact and what you re seeing. it s snowing now, right? reporter: it is, it s coming down. we were out there sunday morning to watch qualifiers for the women s freeski slopestyle, but it was one of the events that had to be postponed. snow was coming down sideways. it had been difficult to flip through the air and find the ground safely. one of the women set to compete in that event, rescheduled for later today, team usa s maggie voisin, skiing for something much bigger than herself. at 23 years old, this is her third olympic games, but the first without her brother. maggie and her family lost him a year ago to suicide. here is a part of our
conversation just ahead of these games. it hasn t been a really easy year. i lost my brother to suicide. when you re going through a hard time, that s when you learn and grow the most. looking back and going through the tough things i ve been through, it s also just made me the person that i am today. i m more grateful. how often do you think about him, your brother michael? every single day. every single day, especially when i m skiing or dropping into an event. he was in the army and i wear his dog tags and they hang right by my heart. he was such a hard worker, so dedicated. but more than anything, he was just an incredible human with a huge haeart, a huge soul, and i strive to be half the human he was. maggie voisin using her voice. she says she hopes in her brother s honor she can be a message for suicide prevention and mental health and a source of inspiration for anyone who may need it. go, maggie.
