I mean Mother Nature obviously not ready for the boys of summer, snow falling here in boston getting 5 inches of widespread 6 to 9. This street getting help from the sun but forget about spring cleaning, youll need one of these to get out the door and get on the road. Overnight, areas that dont have sun like this had some freezing going on so icy conditions around the boston area, especially in the suburbs then, of course, theres the windchill. These number, this is incredible stuff, linzie talked about it here right now, 23 degrees but feels like its 8 because the winds will be howling. New york city, youre no different. 11degree windchill. Even outside the snow zone you are feeling the bitter cold so dress like it is january when you head out the door. In the northeastern third of the country below average temperatures, looks like into early next week, possibly beyond that.

Reporter melania saying the race has taken an ugly turn. Her husband criticized for retweeting this image of ted cruzs wife. But melania also attacked for striking this pose as a model. When they run a super pac ad attacking you, is that painful . I have a tough skin. I think its not fair that they are attacking family, a wife or children. Reporter its something the cruz family is dealing with, as well. The texas senator answering some very personal questions after a National Enquirer report cited rumors of marital infidelity. Have you committed adultery. I have not. That attack was complete and utter garbage. Not going to be any emails or texts or videos its completely made up nonsense. Its simply not true. I have always been faithful to my wife. I love my wife. Reporter cruz blaming trump for the tabloid story. A Smear Campaign to stop his momentum in wisconsin where preelection polls show him beating trump. I asked cruz what a victory today would mean. I think the people of suisse, theyre looking at the records of the candidates and they realize that donald screams and yells a lot but he has no solutions. He has slogans but no solutions. Reporter and this morning, for the first time, the Washington Post is reporting on trumps plan to force mexico to pay for that border wall hes been talking about for months, as president he says he will try to cut off the money that mexican immigrants send back to their families. That would choke the mexican economy. Its unclear if thats even legal and it would definitely fracture the relationship with the key ally in a trading partner. All right, thanks for the latest. Now to the democratic side, Bernie Sanders hoping to keep up the pressure on Hillary Clinton and take away a victory in wisconsin as clinton turns her focus now to new york and the upcoming race here. Abcs cecilia vega is tracking it all for us. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter Hillary Clintons Campaign Says her delegate lead is nearly insurmountable but they are bracing for a loss in wisconsin. Bernie sanders, on the other hand is on a winning streak and he is hoping to keep it going today. [ cheers and applause ] Bernie Sanders feeling confident in the final stretch. This land is your land reporter crisscrossing wisconsin from milwaukee this is our last rally before the primary to thank the people of wisconsin for their kindness. Reporter to green bay. If we have a large voter turnout, we can put wisconsin in the ranks of those states who are fighting for a political revolution. Reporter this morning, sanders heads into voting in the badger state leading in the polls and taunting his opponent. Shes already under a lot of pressure. So, dont tell her this, but i think we win here, we win in new york state and were on the way to the white house. Reporter now Hillary Clinton faces a stark reality. Overnight her campaign sent this fundraising email to supporters saying, we could lose wisconsin. Tomorrows primary is going to be a tough fight. Clintons husband there fighting the fight on her behalf. We need wisconsin, go out and work for it. Thank you and god bless you. God bless you. Reporter while she stays behind to campaign at home in new york, a state she cannot afford to lose. I adored being your senator. I loved representing new york. Reporter well, overnight both sides finally came to an agreement on holding a debate here in new york. It will be on april 14th but it did not end this bickering. Sanders team said he had to cancel a big rally, quote, to accommodate secretary clintons jampacked high dollar coasttocoast fundraising, a clinton spokesman, amy, says classy. Thats the response. Very nice, indeed, cecilia, thank you. A lot to talk about obviously. Lease send it over to george. Im here with matthew dowd and jon karl, both joining us. And the democrats right there, i talked to Hillary Clinton about this yesterday. Bernie sanders, if it comes in as the polls are suggesting right now, six out of the last sev seven. She cant put him away. Striking how both are having a hard time to close the deal. For Hillary Clinton this would mean a real losing streak going into new york, her home state. You asked her if she could afford to lose in new york. She said, you know, its not a must win tate but i think that would be devastating to see a loss in her backyard in new york to Bernie Sanders. I agree with that. I think its funny that in the course of this the dominant frontrunners are not dominant going into the bleu cheese state and somebody will be black and blue when they come out of this as they hit the wall, whats fascinating about this donald trump keeps dominating the National Polls and doesnt look like hes dropped a lot in wisconsin or nationally. A hard connection cannot be broken by an argument. To maintain his path to get the nomination and get the 1,237 delegates, he has to start doing better. Yeah, donald trump is the frontrunner and been the frontrunner forever in this race but hes got to do significantly better, in fact, george, if you look at the available pledge delegates left he needs to win nearly 70 of them Going Forward. So being a frontrunner with 35, even 40 of the vote Going Forward will not be enough for donald trump to clinch this nomination before the convention and at the convention i think he faces a real uphill battle. Matt says if he wins its all over. If not that chance of a contested Convention Goes way, way up. The other interesting thing, ted cruz has less of a chance of passing donald trump than Bernie Sanders does. Bernie sanders has a better chance of passing Hillary Clinton among pledge delegates than ted cruz in passing donald trump. We will be watching tonight of thank you both. Back to amy. Thank you. We have new details about that deadly amtrak crash near philadelphia on sunday. The train hit a backhoe working on the tracks and this morning the wall street journal reports moments before the crash, an amtrak supervisor raced into the path of the train trying to warn his colleague on the backhoe to get out of the way but it was too late.

Look at that, the hillside going up in flames and abcs gio benitez is here with the latest on that. Good morning, gio. Reporter amy, good morning to you. A sad story.
