And in arizona, desert bushes coated in white. And in missouri, another tough commute. It comes as drivers and Airline Passengers barely recover from the storm this weekend. Nine hours from a flight in dallas that was supposed to take 40 minutes. Heres linsey davis. Snow in los angeles reporter new images, hail blanketing the beaches. In california. Snow wreaking havoc around the country. In virginia, troopers responding to 125 crashes in four hours. In North Carolina, black ice leading to this 12car pileup. So far, boston has gotten 104 inches of snow. Thats this much, a little more than 8 1 2 feet. Less than four inches away from the alltime record. Snow trucks carting out 950 truckloads a night in boston. The city buckling under the weight of so much snow. This barn roof collapsing, initially trapping ten horses. Air travel so frozen, roughly 5,000 passengers in dallas sleeping in the airport. As for passengers grounded for nine hours, some resorting to raiding the liquor on board.

All eyes on the monster storm coasttocoast. Forecasters now say bostons snowfall record could be broken as soon as tomorrow night. David . Thank you. Lets get right to ginger. So often, weve been in this together. This system, in much of the country. In some places, its welcome snow in the mountain west. Others, not. Lets look at where its going to be most dangerous by tomorrow morning. Blizzard warnings in minnesota and south dakota. Two to five inches of snow. And gusts up to 50 miles per hour. You see all the Winter Weather advisories and warnings from california to montana. All the way to the midatlantic. I wanted to time it out for you. Its not just tonight, tomorrow morning it gets to chicago, from snow to sleet and freezing rain. Quickly it moves to drivetime tuesday, i80, harrisburg, new york, snow, sleet, freezing rain changing to rain. And wednesday in the midsouth, little rock to memphis, a mess. Overall, its 1 to 3 inches in a lot of places. But others, a whole lot more. Thanks, ginger. Well watch you on gma. Now to the global manhunt for the most wanted killer in the world. The mask has come off. And brian ross, tracking down his family, and we learn that twitter is shutting down isis social media accounts. Thousands of them. Heres brian ross. Reporter isis is under attack tonight. From twitter, which Authorities Say has, until now, been key to the terror groups growing power and threat. But in the last week, twitter has shut down, suspended, at least 2,000 accounts connected to isis, a major escalation. I would say this is as serious an attack on isis twitter as weve seen so far. Reporter and in response, isis supporters tonight are calling for retaliation against twitter employees at the californiabased company. Among the isis targets shut down, accounts spreading the videos of the secretive executioner called jihadi john. Despite the mask, investigators say tonight, he didnt fool his mother, who immediately recognized her sons voice. You have plotted against us. Reporter on the very first jihadi john video, in which american journalist james foley was beheaded. But according to authorities, she kept quiet about the fact it was her son, mohammed emwazi. Other members of the emwazi family are also under scrutiny tonight, including his younger brother omar, who we found on the streets of london today. Abc news. Can we ask just a couple of questions . About your brother. Reporter he took off running when we tried to ask him about his brother, the isis killer. At the same time tonight, four women were escorted by Plainclothes Police from the emwazi family hiding place in london. They too declined to talk about mohammed, who has brought so much shame to their family. They clearly didnt want to talk to us today. You came right to the newsroom when you learned the twitter accounts were shut down. Seems to be a big deal, some 16 major isis twitter accounts, used to distribute the videos, 13 are reported out of business tonight. As to the threats against twitter, the company says theyre working with Law Enforcement. No doubt theyve hit a sore point with isis. Brian, thank you. And one more development on isis in iraq. A major offensive in tikrit. Saddam husseins hometown. Seized by isis fighters last summer. The iraqi army is sending in thousands of troops, as of now, no u. S. Troops are taking part. Back here at home, to a major effort to defuse the tension in washington between the white house and israeli Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu. Enon the eve of his address to congress. Hes saying the two countries are like a family. Hes saying theyre not doing enough to prevent iran from building a nuclear bomb. But insists he respects the president and his office. The white house saying the president will likely not watch the speech. Now to the american nurse who became a symbol of the threat of ebola. Nina pham, seen here in her hospital room. Fighting for her life inside the texas hospital where she contracted the disease. She survived. But is now suing the hospital. For one, saying that video in the hospital room, she never agreed. On the case tonight, cecelia vega. Reporter thats nina pham in the hospital fighting for her life. A doctor handing her tissues to wipe away tears. Dont cry. Reporter but tonight the nurse calls that video a publicity stunt released without her permission. Thanks for being part of the volunteer team to take care of our first patient. Reporter but pham now says she never volunteered and today she filed suit against Texas Health Presbyterian hospital and its parent company, accusing them of negligence. Nina pham should not have gotten ebola, and there needs to be some accountability for that. Reporter pham was the first nurse to treat thomas duncan, patient zero. She now says she received zero training or guidance about ebola. And when she asked how to protect herself a manager searched google and handed her an internet printout. Pham contends she even had skin exposed when she first treated duncan. The hospital tonight telling abc news, we view all our employees as part of our family. We remain optimistic that we can resolve this matter with nina. Nina pham did survive. Reunited with her dog, even meeting the president , but she says her recovery is far from over. Pham says she has nightmares, insomnia, and body aches. And hopes her suit uncovers the truth about how the hospital really handled the deadly disease. David . Thank you. And welcome to saturday nights officially. Now, new numbers showing that measles is growing coasttocoast. Heres the map. 170 cases across 17 states and washington, d. C. 16 new cases in just one week. Lets get right to dr. Richard besser. Youre seeing something connecting many of the cases. The majority of people here were not vaccinated. Some because they were babies. But others could have been, and werent. And another number we wanted to show everyone at home tonight. 93 of pediatricians were asked at least once a month by parents to put off childhood vaccinations. 3 out of 4 doctors say they sometimes go along with parents that say they dont want all the vaccines at once. Ive been in that position, and ive done it. Its so hard to convince parents to give vaccines on time, buts it leaves children at risk. Thank you. We have a headline about the dow jones, a record high. Up 150 points. Closing above 5,000 for the First Time Since the dot com bubble burst. Only the third time in history its closed above 5,000. And we move on to North Carolina now. And a brazen stunt on i95. 4 million in gold, gone. Heres steve osunsami. Reporter heres where police say it happened. A boldfaced robbery, out on i95 in North Carolina. Three armed men held up a tractortrailer full of silver and gold sunday evening. Making off with nearly 5 million in gold bars. The Security Team, from a Miami Company called transvalue, were on their way from south florida to attleboro, massachusetts. Police say the team told them they had to pull over because of engine trouble and were confronted by the bandits in a white van. From police, the suspects ordered the victims to get down on the ground. It was reported that while on the ground the suspects tied the victims hands behind their backs and made them walk into the woods. But the Company Tells us that their drivers had guns too, raising questions. Moving valuables is dangerous work. Last month, three armed men, seen here in body armor, shot and killed a guard inside this brinks security truck in houston. These people need to be held accountable for their actions and they need to be brought to justice. Reporter the Florida Company wont say whose gold is lost, but tonight theyre offering a 50,000 reward for its safe return. David . Thank you. And the incredible midair rescue. An unconscious sky diver plummeting to the ground. His instructor racing twice to open the parachute before its too late. Clayton sandell has the story. Reporter after jumping from a perfectly good airplane Christopher Jones begins a perfectly good freefall 12,000 feet above western australia. But seconds later he suffers a midair epileptic seizure. He started going into the dearch position, almost like a fetal position, rolled over onto his back and started spinning. Reporter the unconscious 27yearold plummets to 4,000 feet, only 22 seconds from hitting the ground. Thats when his instructor swoops in. I was just glad to get to him stop him turning and make sure he had a parachute above his head. The next thing i know i wake up at 3,000 feet and thankfully underneath a fully inflated parachute. Reporter jones apparently had his doctors clearance to jump but his skydiving days are now over. At least hes alive, he says, to thank the man that saved him. Hes a hero, yup. Hes a massive hero. Reporter clayton sandell, abc news, denver. Thank you. And now to the end of an era in washington. Democrat Barbara Mikulski saying she will retire. After five terms in the senate.

I wish that there was something i could do to help. Some people with shingles will have long term nerve pain which can last for a few months to a few years. Dont wait until you or someone you love develops shingles. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your risk. Next, to a possible secret revealed in an official portrait of president clinton. The artist saying he added Monica Lewinskys dress to the portrait. Heres jim avila. Reporter there is a shadow over president bill clintons official portrait. No, not his. Look closely, there on the left of the frame beneath the mantle, look familiar . That, according to the artist, is the shadow of thenintern and president ial mistress Monica Lewinsky wearing the infamous blue dress that nearly brought down the clinton marriage and presidency. The National Portrait gallery actually has ten formal clinton portraits that it can rotate through its display. By coincidence says the museum the portrait of the featuring the unwelcome intruder is in storage.
