visibility, high winds creating a recipe for disaster on this minnesota hi highway. the dakotas saw up to a foot and a half of snow yesterday and, folks, it is not over yet, another winterlike blast taking aim at denver. how much snow is expected there? let s go to bonnie schneider live in the weather center. say it isn t so. i m sure that s what they re saying in denver. where is our spring. denver, you re on your way to seeing the snowiest april ever but it s not just snowing in colorado. we have snow right now in northern minnesota across the northern plains and then where it s a little warmer, seeing very heavy thunderstorms that are keeping across milwaukee and into green bay at this hour. so it s a stormy and snowy start to your workweekment look up to a foot in parts of the northern plains. it will be a little lighter in some areas, however, as you look towards the west, west of denver and north of denver you could see well over a foot but for denver itself by the time we get into later tonight and early tomorrow, 3 to 6 inches of more snow and cold temperatures too so this is a big wintry mess. all the way across colorado into wyoming. we re going to see heavy amounts of snow and all of that sweeping further to the east. another thing headed eastward is this cold front that will trigger showers and thunderstorms possibly severe ones over parts of the heartland so a good day to plan your travel carefully and have your noaa weather rate joe programmed and turned on to your parish or county in louisiana. watching for severe weather meaning we could see frequent lightning, heavy downpours of rain from st. louis to joplin all the way to tulsa, oklahoma and then on tuesday we ll watch for areas a little further west to see another severe weather outbreak. normally spring is a busy time but not necessarily a busy time for temperatures like these dropping down into the mid-20s for rapid city and i m getting down to 0 for chicago and for minneapolis, rather, so we are seeing a cold front coming into the northern plains. aye-yie-yie. i was squinting to see if that was really something like 20 something degrees. deeply offensive, i have to say. i was in florida i would say nanny, nanny about oo-boo to you. a search for a missing hiker was suspended citing rough conditions on granite mountain. this was one of two avalanches. the second on red mountain killed a fee meal hiker. the avalanche on granite dragged down three snowshoers down more than 1200 feet. two in their 30s survived. a third, mitch hundredgate remains missing this morning. just a very, very strong individual and we really hoped that somehow he would break free and find his way off the mountain and we didn t want him to come down to an empty parking lot. search and rescue teams are waiting for first light this morning to see if they can resume their search. also new this morning, does north korea warrant to talk tore fight? on a pivotal day in the korean nuclear crisis there is a new call from the u.s. for quote/unquote authentic and credible negotiations, but secretary of state john kerry is making it clear the burden on ending the north s nuclear ambitions fall squarely on pyongyang. here he is in asia over the weekend. secretary of state vowing to protect america s allies. earlier today north korean leader kim jong-un made what is believed to be his first public appearance in two weeks. here he is, it includes visiting the mausoleum where his grandfather, kim il-sung and his father kim jong-il lie in state. jim clancy has the latest from seoul, south korea. jim. reporter: brooke, john, yes, there were major celebrations going on this day in north korea to mark the 101st birthday of kim il-sung, the founding father of north korea. kim jong-un emerged from two weeks of absence. he appeared to be flanked by members of his military as he visited the glass encased coffins of his grandfather and his father to pay what the north koreans said was the humblest of respects. meantime, in south korea, people got up, had breakfast and went to work and opened up the newspaper. it wasn t kim jong-un on the cover, no, it was psy and the release of his new single. the media here came under a little criticism because of the way that they have described these lavish celebrations in north korea at a time when so many people there are hungry. the north koreans lashed out at them saying that it was not at all the kind of thing that they should be saying on a day like this. there is still focus on mr. kerry s trip here. it is thought to have been a very positive trip and some of the comments he made in japan. we need to make it clear that they have to move towards the denuclearization and they need to stop the threats and missile test, stop the nuclear tests and we re prepared to come to the table under the meeting of the obligations. kerry s trip is thought to have really turned down the temperature here on the korean peninsula. that s the biggest takeaway from all of this. it also put the ball into kim jong-un s court. it brought china a little bit closer to the u.s. point of view by exploiting the extreme rhetoric of the north and, of course, it reassured u.s. allies in the region, japan and south korea. there s also an assurance to beijing there that the u.s. wants a nonnuclear korean peninsula. at the same time, there s been no positive response that has been heard from the north. it s still early yet. they expect them to more or less change the subject entirely now with kim il-sung s birthday and perhaps sometime down the road we ll hear from them. brooke, john. jim clancy for us in seoul, south korea. meantime, the man hugo chavez chose as his successor narrowly captured the election. so close his opponent wants a recount. nicolas madura won 50. 6 to ra done ski. the results are irreversible. you can t put it off any longer. it s time to cult that check to the government right now. it is april 15th, tax day. beware the ides of april. not all bad news. a lot of retailers and restaurants are offering tax deadline deals today only. some offering to pay the tax on what you buy and this may be the best news ever, arby s is giving away free curly fries. australian eyes are smiling now that one of their own is finally wearing the green jacket. adam scott becoming the first ever aussie to win the masters. he did it in dramatic fashion, man, did he ever sinking this 12-foot putt for a birdie in the second playoff hole. that was the second time in about 20 minutes the guy went nuts, had to sink an unbelievable birdie to put it into sudden death and beat angel cabrera and captured his first career major. both made birdies to force a playoff. it was simply phenomenal. jared greenberg is there. i was glued for much longer than i should have been. good morning. guys. the people controlling those tv programs not disappointed about that the all as it was an historic drama victory. it entered the final shot 4 shots off the lead. the runner-up two years ago in augusta. able to complete what no other australian did before. the 32-year-old had the patrons on his side and secured his place in the butler cabinet. however, experience down the stretch is a funny thing had it comes to the majors and that s exactly what angel cabrera had on his side. the argentine earned the green jacket back in 2009 he was just simply marvelous down the stretch forcing a sudden death playoff with scott look at this shot on 18. we would go to a second playoff hole after scott came out of signing his score card. cabrera for birdie. look at this. cabrera leaves it on the lip. he can t believe it didn t drop. so scott a chance to win, scott says you bet you. a second trait year the masters goes to a playoff and one a country, a continent will cherish forever. cnn rachel nichols with the 2013 champ. it s an amazing journey, the whole golfing career and i ve played a lot of majors and to finally get one means a lot. i ve knocked on the door a couple of times recently and to get over the hurdle hopefully is the start of something to come. what do you see when you look at this guy? that s a happy man when i look at that. it s quite a feeling to make a couple putts to win the tournament. it s what every kid dreams about so for it to finally happen is amazing. and australian nearly a champion on a couple of occasions, greg norman was 6 shots up heading into the final round, nick faldo came back and defeated him so the nation really proud today. and, of course, tiger woods, he came into this tournament as the clear favorite. this was a roller coaster few days for him. it really was. he talked a lot about the green speed. it s not like the u.s. open where you anticipate rock hard greens, but the speed many of the golfers thought would be a lot faster. the first two days without the moisture on the greens was slow an we all saw the weather conditions on sunday, not favorable for the golfers and many anticipated fast greens and as you heard, the commentators talking about several times especially tiger, they just didn t believe that the greens would be as hard as they would. tiger had a very good four-round tournament but just wasn t to be and now the drought continues. nine years since his last major victory. he s still four behind the great jack nicklaus for the all-time lead. thank you very much, jared greenberg in atlanta. it was crazy. of course, tiger had that two-stroke penalty for the illegal drop. still to have sudden death and go to a second round has to be sort of record breaking. angel cabrera when he won in 2009 i believe won in a playoff and tiger woods won in a playoff fives year before that but what made this so dramatic. they were hitting their putts. on 18 both hit great putts to send it into sudden death and really was astounding. a break in the case of a texas d.a. and his wife? the evidence found in a
