your breath and unusually wet. you are well within your right. >> exactly. the weather is a little bit leaving something to be desired. >> we have been taking turns watching the footballs for the nfl. >> nice. >> so no one will get fined. >> apparently they have a big storm out east. you have another snowstorm and we are watching this and it will be bringing a real mess. a second storm is coming back in for the rain that is here that makes its way across the country and causing many problems. >> dylan, good morning. what do you see? >> more snow and that's on top of the 32 1/2 inches of snow this area picked up from the blizzard the highest total across the state of maine. i started off with my yard stick. it was too big to measure this two inches we had in pittsburgh and not even close to being big enough to measure the mounds of snow. crews have been working to just put the snow anywhere they can. the mountains are growing and storm-weary residents have another to 12 inches to deal with. we couldn't have done this. we started in pittsburgh earlier this week when the storm is in infancy. we met up with the blue mobile to get us through the streets of boston. the crew got into nantucket. here we are in maine. new location new storm, more snow. matt? >> thank you very much. the fate of two isis hostages are uncertain a day after a deadline passed for a prisoner swap to secure their freedom. bill neely is in amman, jordan. good morning. >> reporter: >> good morning, matt. i'm outside japan's embassy in jordan where the wait continues. two nations a world award and united in horror at this hostage crisis. anger and anguish in jordan still no deal for their hostage, for his family it's overwhelming. they are desperate for the life to be spared. the terror group said it will if this woman is freed. she is a failed suicide bomber on jordan's death row. they are threatening to kill this japanese journalist if the deal is not done. the deadline has passed and jordan is demanding proof from the terrorists. >> we have asked for a proof of life from them and we have not received anything as of yet. >> japan is in shock. isis killed one japanese hostage already. the mother of the latest pleaded for her son as did his wife. >> i fear that this is the last chance for my husband. i hope our oldest daughter who is just 2 will get to see her father again. >> japan won't do deals with terrorists but jordan is ready to swap him for the pilot. she was part of a gang that killed 60 people ten years ago. her suicide belt failed to detonate. this is an ordeal for the pilot's family as the sunset deadline was followed by silence. and still no word this morning from the kidnappers. isis japan and jordan said they are working closely together and around the clock to find out what on earth is happening with the lives of their hostages hanging in the balance. >> excruciating. now for a story out of los angeles. a deadly hit-and-run with suge knight rap mogul. >> knight is no stranger to runins with police and following this he turned himself in to face questions about just what happened. >> what was the fight about? can you say anything about the allegations against you? >> suge knight surrendered and was questioned this morning after allegedly running two men over, injuring one and killing the other. he plowed into a group of people in compton thursday afternoon after an argument ensued. >> it looks like he drove backwards and struck a victim and moved forward and struck them again. >> his truck was found hours later in an empty parking lot. >> we are handling it as a homicide. >> his attorney said his client was being attacked and in an effort to steapescape, he hit two other people. >> they see wh out. >> suge knight is cofounding death row labels one of the biggest hip hop labels of the 90s for snoop dogg and tupac. he served four years from a previous assault returning to prison again in 2003 for assaulting a parking lot attendant. just last year he survived being shot multiple times in a hollywood nightclub. if convicted, suge knight could face up to 30 years in prison. it happened shortly after a shoot for an upcoming movie, but no details on what started the argument. >> thank you very much. there is new information on the measles outbreak tied to disney theme parks in california. as more cases are diagnosed, health officials believe they know how it began. doctor natalie is an nbc news contributor. they say this was probably brought to the united states by a tourist who went to the theme park and spread the virus. why is that significant in stopping the outbreak? >> we can't close the borders and we can't have the same conversation as we did with ebola. the issue is internationally we are seeing much lower vaccination rates than here. our outbreaks are due to importing the cases from abroad as well as our non-vaccination rates here. >> it prompted action from a pediatrician in california who said he will no longer treat patients who have not been vaccinated for measles. parent who is choose not to give measles shots are not just putting their kids at risk but putting others at risk especially kids in my waiting room. how do you feel about doctors drawing this line. >> legally we are bound to treat patients and can't discriminate on the basis of philosophical or religious beliefs. his concern about the unvaccinated concern could be exposing people in the practice is valid. this opens up a discussion and it's something that the medical community as a whole will have to grapple with. >> a lot of people will talk about this. there have been cases in phoenix where the super bowl is playing. should people be concerned? >> if you are unvaccinated you should think twice about going. measles loves a lot of people in closed quarters. this is the kind of atmosphere that can spread. if you have young children and you are not vaccinated it applies to adults as well. we get more emotional when it comes to children. people have to be aware that they are making preparations. we have measles outposts and looking for people who might have that rash. it's a big deal. >> thanks so much. good to see you. >> natalie is on assignment and tamron hall has the other headlines. >> the taliban is claiming responsibility for an attack in which a gunman shot and killed three contractors and one afghan man. what happened thursday at the kabul airport. the taliban fighter wore an afghan uniform and infiltrated the ranks of forces to stage that attack. a showdown on capitol hill after protesters interrupted a hearing. just before former secretary of say the henry kissinger is about to testify about global challenges. now, the disruption lasted about two minutes. they led them away and senator john mccain apologized and lashed out at the protesters. >> you have to shut up or i will have you arrested if we can't get the capitol hill police in here immediately. get out of here you low life scum. >> the incident raised questions about how the demonstrators could get so close without being stopped by security or police. >> tense moments on a train after a train car filled with smoke. a cell phone video shows a man on the platform smashing a train window and several passengers climbing out. apparently they had trouble getting the door open. the authority blamed the smoke on a propulsion system failure and said there was no cause for concern or danger over the incident. >> a jockey is facing felony charges accused of zapping a horse with a buzzer during a race. it happened earlier this month at the sam houston race park in texas. 43-year-old roman won that race but look closely. it looks like he is holding something in his left hand. buzzers are used to send an electrical shock through the horse, making the animal run faster. he faces up to ten years in jail. >> a hep ending for a koala bear we told you about. the bear is nicknamed jeremy and he received treatment for burned paws. he made a full recovery and has been released back into the wild. jeremy was injured in a bush fire. a photograph of him with all four paws soaking in medical solution was widely shared on social media. a lot of people sent love to him and there was a whole campaign to knit gloves for other koalas who are injured. >> that was a good out come. the cutest ugliest things in the whole world. >> i want to hug them. >> thank you very much. let's go back to al in phoenix. mr. roker? >> we have the storm system that is causing rain in phoenix. it will spread across the country. take a look. it starts off here. we have wet weather into friday. right on through saturday as it makes its way. we are watching rain and icy mix from st. louis, chicago, spreading to snow and cleveland and by sunday morning, we are looking at this spreading into new york. sunday afternoon it makes its way further to the east and we are talking generally by sunday night about three to nine inches of snow that continue into monday into the northeast with places picking up a foot or more. we continue to track this ♪and do you take this man♪ to be your lawfully wedded

weather. >> after nearly two weeks of build up super bowl weekend is finally here. here in phoenix counting down to the big game. finally we get to play. >> i know it's not. it's finally here. just days from the biggest of big games and the fans desending on the greater phoenix area. the players are prepared and we are seeing huge interest in the game. ticket prices are through the roof as these two teams get ready for one of the most anticipated matchups. >> seahawks. so hawks. >> the frenzy that only the super bowl can forge is growing as we countdown. that excitement will mend to the stands looking to lead his team to back to back titles knows what makes the stage so very exceptional. >> it's the super bowl. the greatest moment there is in sports. there will be a lot more and action. >> an appreciation not lost on his counterpart, tom brady. back for a 6th super bowl appearance. >> it's a privilege. i don't take these things for granted. >> part of what makes the game unique is a presence of a massive a-list including katy perry who will help take minds off the recent controversy of underinflated footballs. >> i can assure everything that nothing in my performance will be deflated. >> to see brady, wilson and perry from inside the university of phoenix stadium may cost the most in the 50-year history. the cheapest ticket going for over $7,000. >> last year there will be about 4,000 tickets available. that's across all the internet sites. >> even more expensive, a 30-second spot for an expected audience of over 110 million viewers is going for $4.5 million. >> i'm kim. >> for many companies it's a winning ticket with so much of america tuning in to see which team will hoist the lombardi trophy. >> there is a sense that we are going to see the two best teams play here in the seahawks and the patriots. we are not just talking about fans descending from new england and seattle. they're of course coming from all-around the country. all-around the globe. so much excitement. especially folks in the greater pittsburgh area. they all come i believe, to see that man. >> i'm glad you gave me a segue here with the two super bowls for the pittsburgh steelers. we have your resume. let's talk about the game. let's do deflate gate. let's get it out of the way. the referee gauged the football before the afc championship game and that wouldn't have been record and we don't know the measurements. does this advance the story at all? >> we don't know what happened. it's up in the air. for the players, they are not thinking about it. nothing will happen for the super bowl. it's about getting into the last day of preparation. for the league the best case scenario is to have the seahawks win the game and they don't have to deal with the ka as afterwards. >> the commissioner is going to have his state of the league news conference today. i found it interesting before the show. it would just be better for the league in terms of putting it behind him if you have a win. >> he won't say it out publicly but they have to cheer for the seahawks so they don't have to deal with the issues. >> take us into what the players's preparation is like. the butterflies. it's not one of those this is another game. >> it's not. friday is your last day of preparation and saturday a lot of teams move to another hotel and try to get concentrating on super bowl sunday. however you want to prepare, it's still the super bowl and the biggest game newscast world for a lot of players. it's what they dream about as a child. i couldn't sleep the night before looking at the clock and it's 12:00 and it's 12:15 and then 12:20. you just want to go to sleep, but you are replaying and visualizing what types of plays you will make. >> imagine if you had gotten a good night's sleep. my goodness. >> it's not often you are outiced. >> normally i walk around and -- >> this is what it's all about. to put yourself in a position to go out and get a ring and i was blessed to play to. >> i will go with seattle because of the defense. they really can control. but tom braid tow get this black cloud from over his head we wants to throw the ball and have an impact. >> always good to see you and your bling. you can catch super bowl 49 and right here on nbc. a lot more from phoenix coming up. >> savannah who designed one of the super bowl rings? >> did you hear that? matt wants to know who designed them? >> i designed the bigger one. >> nice. >> that's very cool. good to see you. savannah thank you very much. chanel jones is in for carson with another story tied to the game that is getting a lot of attention. >> with the super bowl this sunday you can see players from both the seahawks and the patriot ares preparing. the super bowl is a big deal but so is having a baby. babies come whenever they want to. let's talk about seahawks quarterback richard thurman who could have the celebration. his girlfriend ashley moss is due to give birth to their first son early february. she is in arizona to share on sunday, but many have been asking what would he do if she goes into labor during the game? here's what he said on thursday. >> i'm pumped for the game. he is not supposed to come on sunday. obviously that could change some things but he will be a disciplined young man and stay in there until after the game. he is going to do his father his first favor and stay in for another week or two. >> for the seahawks here's hoping he doesn't have a difficult decision to make come sunday. i think i would know what he would do. >> he will be on that field. >> yes, he is. >> and from the baby does the baby get a car early? >> chanel thank you very much. savannah. >> hi matt. coming up from phoenix, much more of the

you are in the business. you know the glare of fame. >> i don't know. it's hard to say whether it's sincere. it might be. or is it just a pr thing and you are trying to spin the bad behavior. >> it's interesting. some of the things he has done. july 13th he got caught on tape urinating in a mop bucket. >> he was accused of tossing eggs and if you are the neighbor so not cool. >> how old is he?

>> go seahawks. you a seahawks fan year around? >> think so. pete carroll and usc. i think so. yeah. i'm a very fickle nfl fan, but the seahawks is where it's at. >> the score, your prediction. >> 28-24, i think. >> willie and al? are you guys there? >> we are there and let me tell you the seahawks cheerleaders love the prediction for the game. the patriots cheerleaders not so much. >> al and i have been smelling each other's hair. >> i can't get that image out of my mind. tamron going deep in there. >> it was like moth to name. i couldn't couldn't resist it. al i would smell your hair but, dot dot dot dot. >> don't knock what we have because you are jealous. >> not at all. just taken aback. >> that's called being jealous. we started off with i asked will tow get a snack for me and he said i am not your man. now you're jealous. >> where is the chifalary, willie?

me or al? >> that's insane. >> mine is more happy. >> i feel left out. i didn't get a cool jersey. >> look at that. >> there we go. there is ryan. that's our half shirt. >> we look good with a little midriff showing. >> it all goes back to it. >> here's the deal. i don't care really. i hate to admit this. what's after the super bowl i'm excited about. black list baby. black list is back. >> i never heard that was show but it's supposed to be great. >> it's an amazing show. >> and that's first. terrific. yeah. >> an act of good smelling hair. >> you guys are so jealous. you never had someone smell your hair? >> no. and by the way, if willie or i did that to a female guest -- we wouldn't even finish the show. >> i'm hoping to get an herbal essence commercial out of this. >> i asked his permission. i didn't launch in. >> i need a copy of that. >> i was whispering something. >> you were all in. >> her hand was on my knee for that i would like to say. and it lingered. >> tamron was like -- like the dion the floor. >> i showered. >> we are talking about hair. someone who has great hair and that's my transition to richard sherman. he is a great guy. i know you and willie know al. his girlfriend is expecting a baby and the baby is due any moment maybe even the first week of february putting it close to the line. richard sherman was asked if it came down to being there with his girlfriend or playing in the game on sunday what would he do. here's his answer. >> i'm close to the game right now. he is not supposed to come on sunday. obviously that would change some things but i think he will be a disciplined young man and stay in there until after the game. he is going to do his father his first favor and stay in there for another week or two. >> i love that he said stay in there. like a pocket. >> this is probably not the right answer. i think his son will grow up to be a football fan. right? i think he would want his dad -- if it was me i would want my dad to play. that's me. that's probably not the right answer. you are supposed to say get in there and be there. >> interesting. >> ryan i'm with you. the deal is richard's girlfriend is here. she is in phoenix. the minute the game is over richard will get a police escort if the baby is born at this time hospital. that kid has a story forever. if your dad missing the super bowl imagine the guilt that kid has to live with. >> you only get one chance to see your kid come out of the pocket. >> to make the play. >> that's a valid point. >> thank you. >> i'm not a football player or an athlete. i think we can attest. if i had missed seeing leila or nick born, i would regret it. i never have been in a super bowl but i cherish those two moments that i saw those kids come out. hey, rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat. amazing. >> can we cherish the forecast from you?
