From nbc news, this is toda today, with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to today on a Tuesday Morning. Can i just say brr, its cold already. How about the change in weather for me. Yesterday in Fort Lauderdale it was raining 13yearold girls, screaming 13yearold girls, i got back here it was just plain raining and now diving down. Anyway, we have more on the weather with dwyer in a second. A small cargo plane has crashed into a neighborhood. John, what can you tell us . Good morning. Reporter good morning. Officials have now located the pilots body in the wreckage of that plane. Its a twin engine propellor plane sitting on the side of that house. When you look had the wreckage, amazing the people inside were able to get out without a scratch. I heard the plane flying by and shortly after like a loud crash. Reporter terrifying moments this morning after residents heard a Small Plane Crash into a living room. A plane crashed into a living room and two elderly people were removed and checked by ems and they were fine. Reporter up in the air the pilot said he was having problems. Id like to land. Im having problems. Reporter minutes later, the control asks if the pilot is okay and after minutes of silence, they confirmed the plane crashed. He went down, didnt make to it the airfield. He did not make it to the field. Looks like he went down just short of 31 center. There are reports there is only one person on the airplane. We have not located that person yet. We have to shore up the building to do a final search. Reporter neighbors relieved the residents of the home were found safe. Im glad the family is okay and kind of lucky, too. I guess were all lucky it didnt start a fire or anything. Reporter they have now found the body of that pilot taking it out of the wreckage and ntsb is on the scene to investigate this crash. Avant naw. Amazing story. Thank you very much. In the middle east, two men broke into a jerusalem synagogue overnight and killed four people. Secretary of state john kerry immediately condemned it as an act of pure terror. Ka good morning to you. Good morning. We just learned four victims killed inside the synagogue were israeli mention and the other two were palestinian cousins from East Jerusalem. The shootout between police and the two attackers who stormed the jerusalem synagogue early this morning armed with pistols, axes and knives according to witnesses. One shot, two shots, then a flurry of shots. At least five, six, seven shots we all ran out. Reporter the violence gave way to a tumultuous scene on the ground. Police arriving on the scene shot and killed two terrorists and people taken to the hospital, four in serious condition after this terrorist attack. Reporter within two hours the chaos spread to East Jerusalem as police stormed the suspects neighborhoods firing stun grenades. Within seven hours, funerals began. The attack linked to soaring tensions between israelis and palestinians fueled to access of jerusalems hole ieiest site. In london today, secretary of state john kerry called the bloodshed a pure act of terror. I call on the palestinian leadership at every single level to condemn this in the most powerful terms. This violence has no place anywhere. Although hamas is not taking responsibility for the attacks, many of its leaders are praising the bloodshed as just retaliation. Meantime, israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu vowed to respond harshly to the murders. Matt and savannah, back to you. Thank you for the latest. Lets turn to ferguson, missouri where the gofrp has declared state of emergency and enacted the National Guard. This with the grand jury to soon decide whether or not to indict the officer who shot and killed michael brown. Ron is in ferguson. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. The governors decision to declare a state of emergency has increased the tension here and the fear of whether the grand jury will indict officer Darren Wilson in Michael Browns death and fears of confrontation. Reporter with protesters threatening to march until officer wilson is charged with the death of michael brown. The governor declared a state of emergency and called the National Guard to help prevent trouble. My hope and expectation within the coming weeks is that peace will prevail. We have the responsibility to plan for an eventuality that might arise. Reporter organizers are criticizing the government that sends the wrong message. It kind of sends a message we are expecting the worse. I worry about that. I worry it could have an escalating effect. Reporter for many, its a reminder of the days after browns death that turned it into a battle zone. Now after mostly peace fful protest, demonstrators say theres no reason to have this. We dont want any officers hit by flying bricks and rocks. This is an extremely dangerous situation that has occurred previously. Now the fbi has warned police extremi extremists may try to exploit protests to attack law enforcement. Were in this together, st. Louis. Reporter as so many like the hometown nfl team, plead for peace. Reporter the governor gave no more specifics about when that grand jury might come nor whether there would be any warning that many school and officials have asked for so that families here caught in the middle can be prepared. Thank you. Meantime the polar plunges in full effect across the entire country. Freezing temperatures in 50 states and heavy snow. Dylan has made her way to erie, pennsylvania. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. I got my start in tv in erie, pennsylvania. I will tell you lakeeffect snow is just as quirky now as it was 10 years ago. Its snowing pretty good and picked up on the shore. If i were to swim a mile over the water wed see snowfall rates at 5 to 8 inches an hour and in new york they are seeing heavier snow on the ground. All weekend long snow has been an issue especially towards dayton, ohio where another car crash occurred because of icy roads. Elsewhere across the Great Lakes Region we are seeing snow pile up in parts of michigan and rapid city and new york where hamburg has about 40 inches of snow on the ground. Because of that we have lakeeffect warnings over the great Lakes Crossing over the relatively warm waters of the great lakes. We will see last throughout the day and through wednesday and thursday, too. We are looking for these bands of snow to shift. As the wind shifts, the heaviest snow will shift a little bit and makes all the difference on who gets what. We are looking for feet of snow in Lake Michigan and four feet of snow off the shores of lake erie and ontario and new york. 35 inches per hour. For the rest of us, its all about the cold surging from the north. Record low temperatures this morning and feels like temperature in the Northern Plains and up per midwest near zero. Afternoon highs 2030 degrees below average. Wednesday, were looking at more of the same. This cold is here to stay a while. We might see improvements over the weekend. Savannah.
