release of a highly controversial senate report on the agency. it focuses on so-called enhanced interrogation techniques used on terror suspects after 9/11. the report is expected to say the agency repeatedly lied about the program. >> na reens at american embassies around the world are on high alert this morning. nancy is on capitol hill where critics say the report is incorrect and could be dangerous. nancy, good morning. >> good morning, and good morning to the viewers in the west. there were so in times when it seemed this report would never see the light of day. it was a battle between the white house and the senate right up until this week. >> they comment on the floor tomorrow at 11:00. >> the senate intelligence committee, chaired by dianne feinstein has spent six years reviewing millions of cia documents. the resulting life-support is 6,000 pages. a 500-page declassified summery will be released this morning. it is expected to say that techniques like sleep deprivation, enclosure in small spaces and in a few cases waterboarding yielding no significant breakthroughs and were more brutal than the cia initially led congress to believe. the intelligence community backed by republicans has already begun to push back. in newspaper op-eds in interviews, and in first-person accounts by former spies. in a statement monday night, republican senators marco rubio and jim rich called the reports released reckless and irresponsible, warning it could jeopardize u.s. relations with foreign partners and potentially insight violence. the white house press secretary acknowledged that risk but said the president wants the report released. >> the administration has taken the prudent steps to ensure the proper security precautions are in place at u.s. facilities around the globe. >> senator feinstein has always maintained a thorough accounting of tactics used between 2002 and 2006 will make the u.s. more safe in the long run. >> we will be able to ensure that an un-american brutal program of detention and interrogation will never again be considered or permitted. >> to give you a sense of how explosive this report is at one point feinstein, who is from california accused the cia of spying on her inves gators as they did their work. the cia director later apologized. the findings releaseded today are backed only by the democrats on the intelligence committee. the the republicans will be releasing 150 pages of their own views at the same time that this report comes out. >> thanks. bob is also in washington with a closer look at the potential fallout from the report. bob, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> what's the biggest concern coming out of this report? >> this is going to be an ugly report. it's been put out for the whole world to see. a fairly graphic picture of what the cia had to do in the face of 9/11. a lot of people will be upset by this. it's going to say in some cases the cia officers went over tp line and tortured al qaeda detainees. the problem is this is not just being released here in the united states. it's a worldwide release. so the fear is that terrorist organizations will seize on this, use it as propaganda. maybe use it to recruit. >> so they have put everybody on notice. >> yeah, that's right. there are marines standing by around the world. and in addition we told the foreign partners a lot of countries will operate with the interrogation program and they did so secretly. so we've told them to be prepareded. some of the details in the report will out some of our friends. and also there's a danger according to the cia if you really read it carefully, you can realize who the covert officers may have been. there's a real fear at the intelligence agency that this could put people in a real danger and could lead to other attacks. of course, the people on the hill are saying that's just spin. we need to get this out because this is a truth that needs to be told. >> bob we've heard from vice president cheney defending these techniques, as he has for a long time. what about the obama white house? do they agree with the conclusions of this report, that the cia repeatedly lied to administration ifofficials about the extent of these techniques? >> i'm not sure norah, whether or not they will go as far as to agree that the cia lied. i think what the president has made clear in his speech he said we tortured some folks. he has basically rejected the use of these enhanced interrogation techniques, which he ended in 2009. i have to say, the enhanced interrogation techniquesped in 2006. the program was outlined in 2009. the idea of whether it was effective, that's an ongoing debate. the cia will point to cases where it did produce intelligence. >> thank you, bob. if you're traveling east get ready for a lot of problems today. heavy fog in dallas is delaying and canceling flights from across the country. in the east, around 300 flights have been canceled. a powerful nor'easter packing a dangerous mix of rain, wind and snow is gaining strength. don is on the shore where flooding is also a concerned. don, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. winter may still be 12 days away, but much of the east coast is getting a taste of it. some of these gusts are going up to 45 50 miles per hour. they put this burm up last night to try to stop beach erosion. i have to tell you, this feels like a hurricane out here. this area was slammed two years ago by superstorm sandy, and there's really real fear that flooding is a risk again. they'll get two to three inches of rain on top of rising tides. inland it's going to be more of a heavy, wet snow event. but the roads can be icy, which will make the commute a nightmare. this nor'easter is not moving fast. it's going to sit over the area probably until this urz. char thursday. >> many of you in the west are facing another series of storms. meteorologist danielle niles of wbz shows us what to expect. danielle danielle, good morning. >> good morning. a lot of active weather on both coastlines. winter storm warnings, icy roads and localized flooding will be the biggest concerns along with damaging wind gusts to 55 miles an hour and beach erosion at the coastline. on the west coast, a series of storms continue the to come in battering the coastline and bringing heavy

responders were able to locate the pregnant woman and transport her to the hospital. back here in rainy brooklyn it's still unclear whether or not the duke and dutchess had any idea of the protests happening. so far they've nod made any public comment about eric garner's death or the police brutality. >> thank you. just a couple of mis from the barclays center there was a deadly police shooting inside a synagogue. an officer shot a stabbing suspect. elaine shows us the dramatic confrontation caught on video tape. >> early this morning witnesses say an unidentified man entered this jewish
