Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. Well, rescue and recovery operations are expected to continue this morning in Northern Washington state after a landslide described as a massive wall of mud and debris killed at least eight people. Washingtons governor describes the scene about 55 miles north of seattle as a square mile of total devastation. Its believed at least 18 other are missing. The landslide hit saturday morning. In some areas the mud is 60 feet deep. Bigad shaban has our report. Oh, my god. Reporter rescue crews found more bodies late sunday in the mess of mud and sludge left behind by saturdays huge landslide. Many others are still missing. Im disappointed to tell you that after searching a very large area of that debris field on foot, we didnt find anybody alive. There was no sign of life. Reporter searchers worked carefully sunday combing through muck that was up to 60 feet deep in some areas. The mud is unstable with the consistency of quicksand. The slide destroyed a town 60 the slide destroyed at least 30 homes in the tiny town of oh sew, washington, about 60 miles north of seattle. This devastation in that area reminded me very much of the devastation i saw when i was in mount st. Helens 34 years ago. Reporter Officials Say the wall of rocks, trees, and sludge came without warning. Although there had been rainfall heavy in the recent weeks. The slide came across the development and the road and the trees with where part of the river is now pooling. Reporter there is still fear of flooding. Residents are warned they may have to evacuate quickly. Bigad shaban, cbs news, arlington, washington. Now some bad news for search and rescue crews. More rain is forecasted in Northern Washington tomorrow. Meteorologist eric fisher of our boston station wbz has more on the volatile weather patterns in the west and another snowstorm bearing down on the east coast. We have a Flash Flood Watch out for Snohomish County and flood warning. You have all this debris from the mud slide itself. Its in the way of that river. Eventually that debris is going to let go and the expected flooding is far as downstream arlington. The Weather Service here says theyre not expecting catastrophic flooding but they want everybody in a safe spot and everyone can be in a safe place when the flooding releases. The seattle area, nearly 14 inches of rain in just the past two months, and thats more than double what they would normally expect during that time frame. So all of that water on top of a dry period, usually the ground gets a little more unstable and unfortunately the conditions get more dangerous. A sad story outside of seattle. The other side of the story is the cold in the east. Its all across the map. Its a frigid monday. A big storm is going to develop here on the east coast. The question with it, how close to the coastline is it going to be . It appears it will be a little too far east for widespread major impact. Light snow is possible, especially the 95 corridor all the way down to North Carolina. The biggest potential for impact, boston toward cape code, nantucket, and marthas vineyard. Blizzard conditions not out of the question there. Im eric fisher for cbs news. This morning possible debris from the missing Malaysian Airliner has been spotted by a crew of a chinese search plane. The debris was located in todays search area, a region 1,500 miles off australians west coast. A chinese satellite first picked up the debris over the weekend. Holly williams is in perth, australia, where the search is being conducted. Good morning, holly. Reporter good morning, annemarie.

Other planes will be dispatched to that section of ocean and the chinese ice breaker the snow dragon will be there tomorrow.

Now, a Chinese Government spokesman stressed today that there is no certainty that the objects spotted are part of the missing boeing 77 p 7, and Going Forward it seems like the search will continue to be hampered by strong weather conditions. Annemarie . Thank you very much. A Malaysian Airline flight was actually forced to make an Emergency Landing this morning because of failing generator. The airbus 330 with 271 passengers on board was headed from kuala lumpur to seoul, south korea. It landed safely in hong kong. And now to the crisis in crimea. Leaders of the g7 nations are holding an emergency meeting today in the netherlands. President obama arrived this morning as the group tries to develop a unified response to the russian invasion. Today russia continues to consolidate its takeover of crimea, seizing one of the last military posts still flying the crimea flag. Tara mergener is in washington. Tara, good morning. Good morning, annemarie. Reports are they stormed a base early this morning. Meanwhile russia continues to mass thousands of troops on the border with ukraine, a move that worries natos top military commander. The latest ukrainian bass thats fallen to russia is home to one of the elite military units. The russian flag is now flying over 189 military facilities in crimea. While Ukrainian Government is calling for the release of an air force commander being held after his base was stormed on saturday. In one of the major cities in Eastern Ukraine yesterday, some 5,000 people called for a vote on secession and joining russia, similar to the one taken in crimea. Both the u. S. And European Union have imposed sanctions targeting Vladimir Putins closist ae isi allies. It certainly rocked the stock market in russia for a few days and weeks and they might continue to. I think we need to do more with sanctions including sanctions the entire financial sectors of the russian economy as well as looking at the energy sectors. Meanwhile republicans in Congress Want the administration to send small arms and other military equipment to aid ukraine, and former republican president ial nominee mitt romney says president obama has been naive and shown faulty judgment when it comes to russia. Not having anticipated russias intentions, the president wasnt able to shape the kinds of events that may have been able to prevent the kinds of circumstances youre seeing in ukraine. And gathering a consensus on how to move forward in todays g7 wont be easy. European leaders are reluctant to join harsh economic sanctions because teir economies are so intertwined with russias.
