The first storm of the year is expected to bring severe Winter Weather to a large part of the nation. Subzero temperatures and dangerous wind chiles are moving through parts of the nations midsection even bringing snow to lubbock, texas, and theres a larger storm behind it. Its expected to bring snow and ice from the planes to the northeast. Lets get more from meteorologist ed curran of our chicago station wbbmtv. Good morning, ed. Good morning. Take a look at how wide the storm stretches here. We see going from texas as you talked about all the way up to wisconsin and over to ohio and over to the east coast. And its all tracking to the east. And as it continues on its way, we have snow, we have rain we have mixed precip and we do have the threat of icing in some areas. Look at this across the entire country. We have Winter Weather advisories winter storm warnings and even the slight risk of severe for the gulf coast states. Well focus on the northeast where we have icing in parts of ohio and kentucky as a freezing rain advisory is there and also icing and snow for the northeast as this winter storm continues to make its way to the east. So we look at sunday as it pulls through the area and willell widen back out and show you. This is the next system. As it comes in and brings us snow, it also brings us the cold air you talked about. Plunging in for sunday right through midweek leaving some incredible temperatures. Look at this, by wednesday, 3 degrees below zero for chicago. Get ready for that arctic blast. Anthony, vinita . Ed curran at wbbmtv in chicago. Thank you, ed. Now to the search of airasia flight 8501. They have found two parts under the sea. They think it may be parts of the missing plane. The flight crashed two weeks ago. Since then 30 bodies have been recovered as well as debris from the plane, but theyre still looking for flaens flight recorders. Allen pizzey is in nearby surabaya with the latest. Reporter good morning. An image taken by a Geological Survey ship could provide a real breakthrough in the search for the missing plane. The find was made by an indonesia indonesiaen plan. One of the pieces is about 30 feet long and 15 feet wide. The other is slightly smaller. Among the multinational flotilla of ships is the uss sampson which has found at least a dozen bodiesyies and the uss ft. Worth. I wont comment as to the success of that right now, but they are using some Technology Organic to the ship right now. Reporter the bodies they pick up are flown to the onshore headquarters to surabaya surabaya where the airliner took off for what was supposed to be a twohour flight. The relatives are seeking information and waiting for the news that their loved ones have been identified. Doctors have advised them not to reveal bodies but rely on dental records and dna as well as physical objects and clothing. They have set up a special lab next to the morgue to conduct the tests. The family of an 11yearold held a small and dignified prayer moment when his body was handed over to them at the crisis center. The first identified Flight Attendant was buried in her hometown last night. Indonesian Authorities Say they had grounded all airasia flights between surabaya and singapore because the company did not have a license to fly the route on sunday, the day of the crash. Anthony, vinita . Joining us more about the crash is mark rosenker. Hes also a former chairman of the National Transportation safety board. Good morning. Good morning, anthony. What do you make of the new findings, the large objects they even found under the water. Every day we seem to be making progress including finding bodies. Weve found these two large pieces. But until we can put eyes on it until were able to really understand what it is i dont want to get too excited about it. Theres been so many highprofile aviation disasters that were all becoming well versed in what the black box is. We know theyll have conversations on it. Where in the plane is the black box located and is there a time limit on this black box . Do batteries die . Do we have any of that in play . The batteries are there to help the pingers. Theyre there to help the searchers find the devices themselves, and they put out a signal about once a second and those will operate for about 30 days. So weve got about 24 25 days left in the batteries. But the boxes themselves as we saw on air france 447 can lay on the bottom of the ocean for two years and still when recovered can be brought up with very clear, very good signals. They have already recovered several pieces including an emergency door exit slide and what appears to be a window panel. Are they likely to get any clues from those . Those theyll certainly look at and bridge back tong back to a secure area. Theyll lay them out and document where they found them but the real answers are going to come from the black boxes. Those flight data recorders are a gold mine for the accident investigators. We now know there was bad weather and altitude change. Do we think weather was the cause of the accident . Vinita weather is always a cause of the chain of events. Clearly weather is a part of that. But until we can get ahold of the boxes and get the large part where the fuselage is and understand if the aircraft came apart in midair or did it come apart when it was actually in the ocean, were operating blind. But youre encouraged by the process. Absolutely. This is barely a week when this airplane came down and now weve got 20 of the passengers back we now have a narrowed area of search. We went from an area the size of california now down to 2,000 square miler and were even getting smaller than that. I think were going to find the boxes in the weeks to come and well find out exactly what happened. Hopefully some closure for the namelies. The u. S. Is taking action against north korea in the cyber war over a hollywood movie. And president obama ordered new sanctions on the countrys defense agency. This is unprecedented. The u. S. Has never imposed sanctions on another nation for an internet strike against an american company. Chip reid as the latest. The an santions announced by the white house included three organizations. The sanctions also target ten individuals with ties to those institutions, both inside and outside of the country. Senior Administration Officials say these individuals are not directly responsible for the sony Cyber Attacks but are being sanctioned to put pressure on the north korean government. And the administration also plans to encourage u. S. Allies to cut off access to those individuals. You want us to kill the leader of north korea . Yes. It was in response to a massive cyber hacking at the Obama Administration says was perpetrated by the north korean government against sony for making the interview. That film is a dark comedy about two journalists recruited by the cia. To assassinate north Korean Leader kim jongun. Sony did not release the film initially, something the president criticized before his vacation. Sonys a corporation. It, you know suffered significant damage. There were threated against its employees. I am sympathetic to the concerns that they faced. Having said all that yes i think they made a mistake. Mr. Obama also promised them that the u. S. Would retaliate. We have been working up a range of options. They will be presented to me. I will make a decision on those based on what i believe is proportional and appropriate to the nature of this crime. Some Cyber Security experts have questioned the conclusion of the u. S. Government that north korea was behind the attack on sony but the white house is standing by that conclusion. They say those experts dont have access to certain highly classified information thats been obtained by u. S. Intelligence agencies. Anthony and vinita . Thousands of people in southern australia have fled their homes for fear of wildfires. High winds and near 100degree temperatures are hampering their efforts. Six homes have been destroyed. Hundreds of others threatened. There are no serious injuries. Firefighters say it could take several days before fires are brought under control. More than a year and a half after the marathon bombing the prime suspect goes on trial monday. Dzhokhar and his brother tamerlan planted bombs that killed some. Tamerlan tsarnaev died after a shootout with police. Cbs legal analyst rikky klieman is here with a preview of the trial. Good morning. Good morning. I cant imagine how you find a jury on such a highprofile case. Everyone says that. Not only were victims were affected by this crime but everyone in the city of massachusetts and boston is a victim. So theyve asked repeatedly for a change in venue and repeatedly it has been denied. What is a judge to do . Judge George Otoole is having a system. 1,200 jurors being called in panels. 250 at a time two panels a day. Theyll fill out questionnaires and then they will get weeded out. This could take four to six weeks, rikki . Theyre predicting four to six weeks. I think it will take at least two to four weeks. There are a lot of factors. Number one, could you sit for a trial that will be three to five months. Number two, can you say the pretrial publicity has not prejudiced you and then individual voir dire one by one to depthqualify a jury. In plain english this is it. If you say youre against the Death Penalty in principle, you dont believe in the Death Penalty but youll follow the law and the judges instructions youll be considered a death qualified juror. This takes stand. Will he take the stand . Hes certainly not going to take the stand in the guilt phase. If i were representing him and judy clark, by the way, one of the greatest trial lawyers and one of the best death has had some of the most celebrated countries in the country, and judy clark is not going to want him to testify at all unless he would be able in the personalty phase, that is life or death, to be able to express remorse. We dont know if he will express remorse. The witness list for the prosecution is said to include some 700 names . Yes, well the prosecution has put on every conceivable possible witness, and i guess thats redundant, that it could have seen something, heard something, had some interest. Ultimately what we are doing here in the guilt phase is showing what happened so you will have information about the three people who were killed. You are going to have 260 victims, each of whom are entitled to talk about their injuries, and the First Responders the magnificent volunteers that saved people and the doctors. Ultimately, is it going to be anywhere near 700 . Not a chance. Be anywhere near 700 . Not a chance. Still, hearing all those numbers, this is going to be a long trial. Rikki klieman, thank you. Thank you. California has the most undocumented immigrants. The a new law has went into effect that allows them to receive a drivers license. Reporter at Motor Vehicle offices across california yesterday, lines stretched out the door with thousands of undocumented immigrants ss eagerly applied for a driver ice lie sense, some camped overnight.

Priscilla came from mexico illegally ten years ago. Yesterday she appeared to take the written test. She passed. Im excited but im still nervous because you have to do the driving test. Reporter governor jerry brown signed off on the law back in 2013 making california the tenth state plus the District Of Columbia to provide licenses to undocumented drooishers. We feel the licensed drive is a safer driver. Those who go through the test and passing procedures are going to be aware of the laws in california. You should never give a drivers license to an illegal. Youve got situations where youre letting people drive who shouldnt be here. Reporter the california dmv expects almost 1. 5 Million Immigrants will apply for these licenses which will include a distinctive marking and cannot be used as a valid form of federal i. D.
