Morning as we are bracing for the storm coming our way. Take a look at this one. It is the calm before the sun. This is a look of the sunrising in the states capital. Beautiful now. The northeast is bracing for a massive blizzard that could wallop the region with over a foot of snow. The storm is blowing in from the midwest where millions are under Winter Weather watches and warnings. Strong winds and heavy snow creating dangerous road conditions, causing some drivers to slide in the ditches. The snow didnt stop this game in minneapolis. At some points the play was paused until the ground crew could blow snow off the field lines. Despite the cold players wore shorts while dedicated fans cheered in all that snow. Nbc meteorologist bill karins is tracking the storm for us. What is the latest . Where is it now . What can we expect . A little night snow for illinois and indiana. As the two storms merge, thats when we are going to deal with the noreaster and could get stranded on the road, power outages, trees down. One to three inches in the lower great lakes. Not until areas in the northeast, say a Tuesday Morning into tuesday afternoon is the peak of the storm in this area. Its not often you see this huge of an area with a foot of snow. Its easier to say who wont get it than who will. New york is the bulling eye. D. C. , a march storm for you. The totals may get a mix coming in. New york city to hartford looks to be all snow. Up to 20 inches. Some will have a chance of getting two feet of snow. The timing is d. C. Around midnight and as i mentioned, all tuesday. I dont think many airports will be open in the northeast come Tuesday Morning. Get your dvr loaded up. Thank you, bill. President trump holds his firstever cabinet meeting. Republicans could see a setback in their attempts to repeal and replace obamacare. The Congressional Budget Office is set to release its assessment the gops Health Care Plan with one outside group saying the estimate could show up to 15 Million People losing their coverage. Its already getting pushback by white house officials. Cbo has been very adept in not providing appropriate coverage statistics. I love the folks at cbo, they work really hard. But sometimes we ask them to do stuff theyre not capable of doing. And estimating the impact of a bill of this size probably isnt the best use of their time. The pushback as anxiety regarding health care permeates in town halls across the country. Both democratic and republican. The white house made a sunday show blitz to defend the gops bill that has its share of detractors. I firmly believe that nobody will be worse off financially in the process that were going through. Were offering coverage to everyone. If youre on medicaid today, youre going to stay on medicaid. If youre covered under an employeesponsored plan youre going to continue to be covered under an employeesponsored plan. Obamacares been a disaster for many people. Its helped some americans. The president has committed no one will lose access to coverage that there will be a smooth transition for those who curtly rely on the exchanges. What we are trying to achieve is bringing down the cost of care, bringing down the cost of insurance, not through government mandates and monopolies but having more choice in competition. Republicans unity behind repeal and replace continues to hit roadblocks. Conservatives concerns with the plan reach a fever pitch. As its written today, this bill in the house of representatives cannot pass the senate. I would say to my friends in the house of representatives, with whom i serve, do not walk the plank and vote for a bill that cannot pass the senate and then have to face the consequences of that vote. Im not for this plan. I think theres lots of opposition to this plan in the house and the senate. I think its basically obamacarelite. Keeps the subsidies, keeps the taxes for a year. If youre drug addicted, if youre mentally ill, you have to consistently see the doctor. From what i see in this house bill, the resources are not there. If youre chronically ill, youre going to have to have consistent coverage. Under this bill, you dont have it. This morning the clock is ticking as the department of justice nears its deadline. Top democratic and republican lawmakers on the House Intel Committee demanded the doj turn over any evidence to substantiate president Donald Trumps explosive accusations that former president Obama Wiretapped his offices during the election. It is a claim mr. Obama has rejected and one the white house has yet to offer any proof on. Were joined by nbcs tracie potts. Good morning to you. What do we need to look out for as far as this evidence, if anything . Reporter look out for the paper trail. Not a lot of people here on capitol hill think we are going to see the spoking gun today with President Trump under pressure to either prove what hes alleged or take it back. The president has one or two choices, retract or provide the information that the American People deserve. Reporter pressure coming from both side to prove president obama tapped phones at trump tower. They are supposed to produce a paper trail by today but lawmakers doubt they will reveal anything. It could show what we know or dont know. Reporter democrats insist, its important for the president to be credible if theres an international crisis. The question is, would people believe and would American People believe him. That has real world consequences. Reporter if we dont get anything definitive today from the fbi and justice department, theres another chance next week james comby is expected to testify. Thank you.
