when you couple that with the windchill values we're seeing along with these one-two storm punches we saw, that dropped a lot of snow across the state. my jeep did not start this morning given the cold temperatures. i had to uber into the office. a lot of iowans are going through that, if they can get to the caucus sites i believe they'll get there. >> iowa had 150,000 registered republicans. let's say 20% go to the caucuses. that's 150,000 people, which would still be less than 2016. does iowa have the infrastructure to handle a rush of people on the roads during this storm? how dangerous is it out there? >> well, i live in des moines and coming into the office there were still some of the main roads that were covered in ice. and given how flat iowa is, especially in the rural parts of the state, blowing snow can easily loft on the road and cause drifts. so, yes, the plows have been working overtime to get out, but in these hazardous conditions, some municipaliies have pulled

those east, west roads are getting blown shut by the wind and the drifts. so just because a plow goes by, in 15 minutes that drift can drift that road shut again. so 9 degrees below zero, but you're standing in line to get into the caucus. that's the air temperature. now, you add in the wind and all of a sudden 9 below turns into 28 below. up here in sheldon, 38 degrees below zero. there are a lot of people here that have live stock. they have animals. they have to take care of those animals. do they have four hours to leave them, go someplace and then hope that they're still alive when they get back? to me that answer is no. we'll have to see how that affects turnout. >> yeah, a lot of dangerous conditions out there. obviously we're hoping everybody stay safe even if they do go out. chad myers, thank you for that. and let's talk about the cold but not just that, the contest that is going to be happening on monday night. we have two campaign veterans here. david urban, a cnn senior

monday or feel on monday when people are getting out, leaving their homes to go and caucus? >> i don't think you understand what 30 degrees below zero feels like unless you're out in it. i lived in nebraska for a long time, and i had to change a tire. and this will be in effect through tuesday. if you must travel, have a winter survival kit with you. if you get stranded, stay with your vehicle, so that is where they are on this. windchill in des moines is 11 degrees below zero. it is still snowing. parts of interstate i-80 is shut down. people are not getting across these east-west roads. most of the roads in nebraska, illinois, iowa, they go east and west, but the east-west roads are getting blown shut by the wind and the drifts.

north carolina, one person was killed at this mobile home park, one of at least four fatalities in the storm zone. the massive system bringing blizzards to the nation's midsection. relentless wind creating whiteout conditions and huge drifts. and in iowa, the heavy snow forcing republican candidates canvassing the state to cancel events. just six days before the iowa caucuses. and now, the i-95 corridor racing to prepare. >> this will be an emergency, it will be serious. and we're urging all new yorkers to exercise extreme caution at this time. >> reporter: david, it's really starting to come down here in connecticut. the winds are gusting, as well. but the heaviest rain and highest winds are yet to come. we could see winds to 60 miles per hour. anybody that lives in the northeast needs to be ready for the potential of their power going out tonight. david? >> david: rob marciano leading us off. rob, thank you. let's get right to ginger zee, she's going to time this out for us right into the overnight hours. hey, ginger. >> reporter: david, hey. these winds are ripping off the

World Business Report

quite a cloudy start, but into the afternoon, the cloud broke up and we closed out the day with some decent sunshine around. now, low pressure is set to dominate this tuesday and continue with that sunny spells and scattered shower theme. the trailing weather front here will certainly introduce more cloud across northern england, parts of wales and south—west england first thing in the morning, and some light, patchy rain here. we start off with sunshine across the north, but a few scattered showers will develop as we go through the day. and so, by the middle part of the afternoon, our weather front will be sitting across lincolnshire down into south—west england. ahead of it, still relatively mild, but behind it, we'll see some sunshine. there will be a few showers and some of these really quite heavy. for northern ireland, for scotland, it's a case of sunny spells and scattered showers — some of those showers could be really quite potent — the odd rumble of thunder and noticeably fresher, particularly on exposed north and west facing coasts. 15 or 16 degrees at the very best. now, that low pressure drifts away and allows this brief ridge of high pressure to build as we move into wednesday. that means that showers will fade away and skies clear, and so, to start the day on wednesday, we could actually have a chilly—ish start with temperatures generally into single figures. but it will be accompanied by some spells of sunshine.

pressure drifts away and allows this brief ridge of high pressure to build as we move into wednesday. that means that showers will fade away and skies clear, and so, to start the day on wednesday, we could actually have a chilly—ish start with temperatures generally into single figures. but it will be accompanied by some spells of sunshine. a north—westerly wind still with us, and so that could just filter a few organised showers down through the isle of man, the irish sea into north—west england. but generally, it will be a quieter day with fewer showers around, but still, because of the wind direction coming from the northwest, those temperatures a little disappointing — 15—20 — that's 68 fahrenheit. thursday into friday sees rain across england and wales and just how far north that goes is subject to question. but after that, it looks likely that high pressure will build for the start of the first full week of september. so, yes, we are going to continue with that showery rain, but fingers crossed that high pressure builds and quietens things down for the start
