the family of four stranded for days when their van gets stuck surviving on halloween candy. but no cell phone to call for help. how they were finally found. good morning, america. happy friday. we're less than a week out from thanksgiving and so all eyes on the weather and that first snowfall of the season for millions. >> yep, the middle of the country, seeing major weather whiplash. a 60-degree swing. some guys golfing, that to this weather which makes you want to curl up under the sheets and ginger will have more on that. >> it could affect a lot of thanksgiving travel. a lot of work for donald trump holed up in trump tower. officials confirmed former general michael flynn has accepted an offer to serve ago president-elect's national security adviser. that is a key position for a military intelligence. a general who is also courted controversy inside the government and on the campaign trail. >> we're set to learn that he met with mitt romney. we have the latest developments in washington. >> reporter: these are key posts in any administration, but as for mike flynn, he has been with trump from the beginning. two senior trump transition officials confirm that lieutenant general has accepted the offer to be national security adviser. a controversial figure flynn roused support at the republican national convention with the infamous lock her up chant against hillary clinton. >> lock her up. that's right. yeah, that's right, lock her up. >> reporter: and in his book "field of fight" dmrin writes "i don't believe all cultures are morally equivalent." trump also extending an olive romney, transition sources telling abc news the two will meet this weekend and that romney is under consideration for secretary of state. the meeting coming after months of mug slinging from both sides. >> he's blaming the members of the american public for suckers. all we get is a lousy hat and he gets a ride to the white house. >> did you ever see a guy like this? he didn't like it when i said he choked like a dog. he choked like a dog. >> reporter: thursday the president-elect also sending out a memo about his meeting with alabama senator jeff sessions saying while nothing has been finalized he has been unbelievably impressed with him and his phenomenal record. >> well, i'd be honored to be considered and, well, mr. trump will make those decisions. >> reporter: but critics immediately pointing to sessions' past allegations of racist behavior. one lawyer he worked with said say to white folks. sessions denied the allegation. away from cameras overnight the president-elect also having his first face-to-face meeting with a world leader meeting with japanese prime minister abe who told reporters after the meeting that trump is a leader who i can have great confidence in. and this morning donald trump implying he's delivering on his campaign promises to keep jobs in america. my friend bill ford, chairman of ford who advised me that he will be keeping the lincoln plant in kentucky, no mexico. but ford tells abc news it never planned to relocate the entire plant. robin. >> so that is not clear but what is clear is general flynn being the national security adviser. you have known him for many years. what do you make of this selection? >> reporter: he is considered highly skilled when it comes to helping to shape u.s. foreign policy. the military in all aspects. he will have trump's ear all the time and this does not require congressional approval. robin. >> all right, martha, thank you. >> more on this now from matthew dowd, also john cohen, national security official in republican and democratic administrations, also worked with general flynn. let me begin with you, as martha pointed out the general had had great successes in iraq defense intelligence agency head early and has courted controversy. >> yeah, good morning, george. yes, general flynn is smart, he's intelligent. he's experienced. his military and intelligence experience will serve him well in the role of national security adviser but he's very intense and very forceful. particularly when he's advocating his ideas and he has been known to be somewhat dismissive of the ideas of others. he will have to be very open, national security adviser to the new president. >> yeah, the job of national security adviser generally seemed to be an honest broker among the various cabinets. let me go to you, matthew dowd. mitt romney, interesting he'll come in for a meeting with donald trump to talk about the possibility of secretary of state. whether that turns out to be true or not, even talking about it, a little boon for president-elect trump. >> yeah, and i'm not surprised that mitt romney would sit down with donald trump. i think if hillary clinton had romney would have sat down with hillary clinton if asked. he loves the country, has to unite. i would be surprised if mitt romney gets an appointment or even takes an appointment but a meeting is good. general flynn, this is a guy unfiltered and very much in the mold of donald trump, shoot from the hip. i'm reminded of donald trump's appointment so far with steve bannon of the kenny chesney song, "all my friends are he seems to be assem blink a pirate brigade. >> senator sessions. we talked about those allegations of racism that caused him a judgeship 20 years ago and served in the senate 20 years since then. how serious will those be in his confirmation if he is chosen for a job like attorney general? >> the senate gives great deference to the appointments of the president. it's his privilege to make the cabinet the way he wants it. in a problematic for president-elect trump in this appointment in this, it is a question the country is very concerned about diversity and how appeals are made and what happened in the campaign and again senator sessions could have a real problem getting approval by the senate. >> and, john, you served in national security positions during transitions as well and seeing something of a break of protocol. he met with the japanese prime minister yesterday and had dozens of phone calls but not seen many unusual things during the course of this campaign in the early stages of this transition. but this is a very important thing to remember, this administration will be taking charge of the government at a time when we are facing significant threat as broad and significant threats at home. they'll be need to be ready day one to ham a crisis. the minute the oath is administered they own any crisis that impacts the united states. >> thanks very much. much more on the transition this michael. >> thank you, george. now let's turn to phillip mena who drew the short straw in the middle of the first snow of the season in sioux falls, south dakota. good morning, phillip. >> reporter: michael, good morning. yeah, that first major snowstorm of the season has arrived here in sioux falls, giant stockpiles of this rock salt about the size of a three-story building at the ready. of our 500 tons of this will be used today to help keep those winter is finally here. up to a foot of snow falling in wyoming and colorado. much of it touching down at rush hour. the slick roads and poor visibility leading to dangerous driving conditions. at least two people died in accidents on i-70 near denver. the freeway shuttle down in both directions. this 15-car pileup caused by a mix of snow and sleet. massive delays international airport. >> we were delayed until 4:00 and then they canceled it and said we'll have to wait till the morning. >> reporter: in wyoming, dozens of accidents as drivers fought to stay on the road on interstate 80. the snow started falling here about an hour ago and it is not letting up. up to ten inches could fall today as this storm heads east. michael. >> all right, thank you, phillip. stay warm and be safe. >> blasting the east. can you see this out of sturges, south dakota. roads look like this for so many folks and a lot of people hit the road today and air travel for thanksgiving because they have next week off. a big deal with the storm blowing through. blizzard warnings or parts of western minneapolis driving along 94 to fargo. that will be travel not advised. don't do it. give it 24 hour, aberdeen and snowfall, not just a couple inches. some will get 6 to 12 inches of snow in northern minnesota wind gusting to 30, 40 miles per hour and probably west of them you have that blizzard warning, just a real quick look at the cold, the chill is no joke. feels like 5 in denver. remember when we were talking 80. >> out there golfing and all that. okay. whoo. what a difference. >> distant memory. >> thank you so much. now to an alarming confrontation with an arizona police officer caught on camera. the officer seen scuffling with a woman and then pumping her. he now says there is more to the pierre thomas has more. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: good morning, robin. today an arizona patrolman has been placed on administrative leave after yet another controversial police encounter, as you said, caught on tape. the video is jarring. an officer punching a woman in the face during an eviction. >> hey, you can't hit a girl like that. >> look again in slow motion. a direct blow to the face. >> punched in the face two times, i was choked. it was just a brutal attack. apparently has no history of excessive force claims marisa morris resisted arrest kicking and kneeing him in the groin before he hit her. something she denies. the case now under investigation. >> we became aware of this incident primarily through social media. we immediately became concerned. >> reporter: overnight authorities releasing clips from the officer's body camera showing the moments following the tense exchange. but not the entire encounter. turn his camera on when the exchange started to get heated. >> i didn't do anything. >> reporter: the kasem bombic of the overwhelming prevalence of cameras and smartphones placing police under more scrutiny. it's become reflex to pull out their phones and record interactions with police. like we saw here in alabama last november when college students reached to are their cameras in unison and later recorded police beating them. back in the arizona case you can the woman. >> i got it on camera. >> reporter: it's a complicated case. a classic he said/she said and now police under the microscope must make a judgment call as to whether the officer broke the law. >> hope they get to the bottom of it. all right, pierre, thank you. let's turn to dr. besser and there's a huge mumps outbreak on some college campuses. thousands of cases across the country this year and dr. besser, mumps seems like a childhood illness. >> that's right. >> why so many outbreaks? >> this is a big increase, but the vaccine doesn't protect 100% of people. if you get two doses which is what you should get, that's going to protect about 88% of people. if you only get one dose of the vaccine that will protect about 78% of people. so that means on college campuses a lot of people who are still at risk of the mumps and college campuses are disease incubators, i have two kids in college. one had mumps, the other one is always they're living in crowded quarters and sharing secretions and water bottles. it's a place where diseases tend to spread. >> what are the symptoms? >> telltale sign is that swelling of the cheeks, loss of the jawline because your sal varley glands are inflamed. fever, body aches, all those viral symptoms and most recover fine, though there are some who will get some swelling of the brain, rarely you can get swelling of the testicles. if you're pregnant it can affect and get two doses of the vaccine and if you're sick stay away from people for five days and try not to share the stuff. you know, campus, there is a lot of the sharing and kissing. there's risk. >> a lot of the kissing. >> might not stop the kissing. >> i know. i talk to my kids. there's no way. it's not going to happen. >> you know what, you'll be answering everybody's questions on twitter. have any questions just ask dr. besser. he'll have the answer for you. >> what are you going to do. >> thr bus. >> okay. it's on you now. >> thanks for that transition. good morning. just hours before president obama arrives in peru the secret service has released pictures of its biggest counter fifth cash bust ever. look at that. $30 million in fake bills linked to a criminal organization in peru along with printing

god, no, hurry, sir. >> ah, she suffered a broken arm, she needed 70 stitches but she's is recovering thankfully. in business news volkswagen is cutting 30,000 jobs as it tries to recover from that emissions cheating scandal. billion to settle claims in the united states. and finally, if you want to play hooky from work and call in sick, we have the results of an important survey for you. a

i mean, the theory right now is that this was some sort of fight. some sort of incident that led to this stabbing. so the question is going to be with more than one person in custody, i think they're going to want to know who is the stabber and who was there who may have helped, who may have helped conceal the body, et cetera, and what authorities may they may want to try to cut the deal with the less culpable person and say, all right, we'll still charge you. you'll still serve some time but we'll be able to get you out a lot earlier if you're willing to help us and testify against the other person because that person could be a critical eyewitness. we don't know that to be the case right now but in these kind of cases that tends to be what happens. >> okay, dan abrams, thanks very much. >> so much going on there. now to more on former fox news leader roger ailes. he was pushed out of his job as you know after being accused of sexual harassment by some of the nek' all of those accusing him were in such high profile positions. abc's elizabeth vargas is here with one woman's story of what she claims happened. good morning. >> good morning. laurie luhn worked for roger ailes for more than two decades. rising to director of booking at fox news. she says for much of that 20 years she was sexually aha rased and intimidated by ailes and zhu cupped to his demands for sexual favors. but now sharing even more of it exclusively with us. tell me first of all why you decided to speak out. >> elizabeth, i think that i went through such hell for so many years i finally felt safe when i saw that other women were speaking up. >> reporter: for decades laurie luhn was one of roger ailes' closest associates. they met when she was 28 years old. working on george h.w. ailes already a powerful media consultant. >> i wanted to meet him. i wanted to work for him. i was so exit haved. i introduced myself to him on the elevator. >> reporter: ailes invited her for an interview with his firm. >> i think he wanted to gauge what kind of person i was. if i was insecure, if i was looking for a daddy figure. >> he was sussing out your vulnerabilities. >> absolutely and i was real insecure. >> reporter: he offered her work according to luhn, it became clear what he wanted when he asked her to meet him. >> he came to town periodically and expect me to do whatever he told me to do. >> like what?

the airlines say they'll stop spending the money next year. congress, what will they do? the administrator told me they're talking about it but >> you got news out of o'hare, second busiest airport in the country and workers there voted to strike. what kind of impact did that have?
