WPVI Good Morning America December 9, 2014

Accident . A royal welcome. Will and kite meeting American Royalty in the u. S. King james, jay z and beyonce Holding Court. You never guess who these students thought they were getting a visit from. And good morning, america. Will and kate taking new york by storm. Boy, they are having fun yesterday. No kidding. And those little children thought they were getting a princess. The princess they thought they were getting, very different. Adorab adorable. And a summit at the game. Amy, you were right out outside. I predicted it yesterday, i said the kiss cam was going to find the royal couple. They didnt know they were supposed to kiss. But they are like, hi, what are we supposed to do . Give them a pass. Much more on that. Right now, though, get to the heavy storms. Heavy rain falling in the east while the west is braces for drenching rain and flooding. Ten was millions in the path right now, and ginger tracking it all. Good morning. The coast just outside the window. Heavy rains, and you can see on the radar, all along the coast, coastal new jersey into connecticut. Becoming more dangerous in the pink color and white, of course. The sleet, freezing rain potential and the ice. Thats why we see flood watches at the coast, northeastern maryland up to maine. Includes boston, rhode island, and inland, winter storm warnings. Thats the heaviest snow in the next two days. This is a slightly slow mover. You see the rain at the coast here, and tomorrow morning, i stopped it, we move in the snow and mix it in even close to new york city. But check it out, behind, overall, really raw, windy and cold. Quickly, i wanted to look at how much snow is going to fall. Inland, 4 to 8 inches, central new york, up in parts of vermont and New Hampshire, 8 plus. And the west coast. I think this is a bigger deal than the east by far. Messy from northwest to southeast. 70 Miles Per Hour winds, rain over a foot in some places. Talking about that coming up. And turn now to the top secret torture report set for release this morning. Details the cias harsh interrogation techniques after nec 9 11. They are on high alert. Martha raddatz has new information about this report. Reporter yes, good morning, george. It is a graphic descriptions of the socalled enhanced interrogations that will stand out in the report. And one section in particular that a person familiar with it says goes beyond even water boarding. That interrogation method that simulates drowning. This section describes methods there are sexually demeaning. But at the heart of the release is the conclusion for the Majority Democrats on the Senate Intelligence committee that the interrogations did not make the country safer. And that the cia misled the Bush Administration about the program, george. As, you know, martha, a number of former cia directors set to rebut the report. And we have seen former Vice President dick cheney come out. Reporter as to the allegations that it was a rogue allegation, Vice President cheney told the New York Times i think thats all a bunch of hooey, the program was authorized. And to charges that president bush was misled by the cia, he says that is a crock. But u. S. Officials remain very concerned about the reaction to this report around the world. Yeah, this is a highlycharged issue. Thanks very much. And town now to president obama, hes not expected to speak about the report. But he was in a pair of interviews last night. Jon karl has that. Reporter these were different interviews. One, he reflected on race relations. In the other, he played barack obama, comedian. On b. E. T. , he talked about meeting with the young people leading the protests in ferguson and how he can relate to their frustrations. My mind went back to what it was like for me when i was 17, 1, 20. Part of the reason i got into politics, how to bridge the gaps. Reporter and for his daughters and future children, he offered hope. I want my grandsons to be treated like anybody elses grand sons. But i dont want them to be subjected to the kind of constant bias that makes them feel as if this is not their home. Reporter changing hie ining on comedy central, he turned the tables on stephen colbert. Poking fun at health care. Govs rocky launch. Remember the original health care. Gov website, i think thats where disney got the idea for frozen. Reporter colbert joked about the leadership changes at the pentagon. You have employed a lot of people. Mostly as secretary of defense. Reporter and poking fun at the executive on immigration, let me get this right, barackus, maximus the first, he called him. And when he wants to burn the constitution. He looks at that seriously today, heading to nashville to talk to an immigrant community center. And we will focus on race and justice in america. Tomorrow, a town hall on facebook at 1 30 eastern. Bringing together a panel of experts to take your questions on the fallout from the grand jury decisions in new york and ferguson. Turning to the royal visit. Prince william and princess kate in the Carlyle Hotel after a jam packed day on monday. Last night it was lighter, meeting pop royalty and Holding Court with a king. And amy robach has the details.

Reporter hitting the game of hoops with the nets and the cavs. Everybody is focused on william and kate. Reporter the famously mediashy william and kate, uncomfortable on the jumbotron, taking it in stride. Cupcakes and a jersey for the little guy who missed the trip. A pretty good date night. Williams first stop of the day, president obama and the white house where the two spoke about endangered wildlife and the new baby on the way for the royal couple.
