Area that's been the focus of the search effort here so far. they describe them as different sizes. some of them bright meaning they could be solid, maybe possibly metal. meantime, we also have a dozen planes and some maybe possibly five, six ships using the latest intelligence to try and locate the plane. all of the equipment that the is is seconding to help has also arrived here in perth, including technology to help find the data recorder. and investigators are looking into a newly discovered partial ping sent by the plane. this new information, we should be careful and still call them obje...

You say the currents work to spread them apart, but can they work to keep them together? >> yes. that can absolutely happen too, on the short term. within the first month or so, it's possible they can be funneled into a coherent structure and stay together. the more time passes, the more likely it is they'll all be spread apart. that makes it harder and harder to work backwards to figure out the original location of the crash where the black box is presumably waiting. >> even if those 122 objects found on sunday are connected to flight 370, that doesn't mean it is where the flight ended. it do...

Boston. new york city today, 34 mile per hour gusts. so it is going to be very windy for today and tomorrow. temperatures are going to be cold as well. 36 in new york today. those temperatures do start to move up a little bit. we warm up by the end of the week. unfortunately, a little bit of a rainmaker as we head into the weekend. temperatures close to 70 degrees in atlanta on friday. so we do warm up by the weekend, but it looks like we could see a lot of rain. >> don't you head back to atlanta this weekend? good timing there, dear. next up on "new day," new leads in the search for flight ...

There's a renewed sense of cautious optimism that we could be closer to finding malaysia flight 370. there are satellite images showing 122 objects, possible debris in the same area of the ipd an ocean where the search has been focused since late last week. on this 19th day of searching, a dozen planes and five ships had a narrow window of time to search for the missing jet. they came away with three pieces of debris being spotted. as investigators analyze a partial ping from the plane that came nearly seven hours after it dropped off radar. this morning malaysian authorities say they've recei...

I was not optimistic last night when i talked to your producer. this news this morning of finding a bunch of objects all clumped together to me is very good news. >> because? >> because that means that spreading process hasn't actually been as strong as it could be. that search area, the original 40,000 square miles that they quoted, is a reasonable estimate. the area they found these 122 objects is much more closely clumped together than that. that suggests it has stayed coherent and there's a better chance of reconstructing the path it took. >> again, reason for hope, as you say, but caution...
