us. gabe, what more can you tell us about the event? >> reporter: it hasn't even started yet, yet there is a massive crowd already gathered here. you can see behind me in freedom plaza, awaiting speeches on that stage just down the way. look, we're a few blocks from the white house, and as we pan over, you can see the crowd actually extends down onto pennsylvania avenue. there's so many people, they can't all fit here in freedom plaza. organizers have bused in thousands of people from a couple dozen -- fred, the crowd size, what it looked like here just over two months ago at another massive rally in early november. the message the past two months hasn't changed. the people here calling for a permanent cease-fire and trying to put political pressure on the biden administration, to call on israel to end its military effort in gaza. look, i spoke with a young woman
all this water, the source of it is actually the passaic river you mentioned a little while ago, the river 90 or 100 yards away from where i'm standing. according to new jersey's governor, the passaic has already been at flood level for the last several days. any additional rain could lead to even more flooding, potentially worse than what we experienced in december. these neighborhoods you're looking at here in patterson, these are some of the low-lying areas. the folks who live and work in this part of the neighborhood are quite familiar with the flooding potential of the passaic. authorities have been closely monitoring the forecast, calling for another 2 feet above what we're seeing right now, which is why authorities have set up these sort of barricades throughout the neighborhood. we've been here for quite some time, fred. people are taking their chances, choosing to drive in, while others are simply just shifting into reverse, which is perhaps the wisest thing. in neighboring new york, a flood warning, coastal flood warning in effect for another hour and a half or so. it really does speak to the advisories, the warnings, and
priority. heavy snow is in the forecast, along with winds over 25 miles an hour at highmark stadium. the bills had also been actually asking fans in the buildup to the game, fred, to help, come and help clear the field and the stands before kick-off. the postponement now, what does it mean for monday? we have two games on monday. we have the bills and steelers at 4:30 p.m., and the eagles and buccaneers in tampa at 8:15 p.m. really significant details on this day, on this weekend, this highly-important weekend in the national football league. >> it really is. there is another playoff game today, and one team, miami dolphins, are not going to be able to avoid this snow. the kansas city chiefs home game there is still under way, right? >> absolutely. we have the browns/texans on this day, as well. we have all eyes on the dolphins/chiefs, as well. kansas city chiefs, the reigning super bowl champs. we do have images there of arrowhead stadium. the chiefs hosting the dolphins.
a little earlier, a palestinian-american woman who said she has lost family members in gaza. she voted for president biden back in 2020, but she says 2024 is a different case because of what she has seen and that unequivocal support from the biden administration for israel, she's not going to vote for biden, she says, in 2024. now, the biden administration has said they are listening to progressives who are calling for a cease-fire, who want more support for gaza, but, look, i spoke with a biden staffer earlier today. there is a group of them here that are part of this cease-fire effort. she told me she doesn't feel like the biden administration is listening. but they also believe that springing a massive crowd like this to the district, that gets a lot of attention. we know people are expected to march to the white house, which crowd, around 3:30. that's after the program, fred, which is set to start, i should say, any minute. >> yeah, and the white house being only a couple blocks away
necessary one, as i was saying. you have the gusty winds there. just look at these images here, fred. they speak for themselves, really. the blowing snow, as well, that's expected in buffalo sunday afternoon. new york's governor making the announcement at a press conference a very short while ago. let's hear and let's listen exactly to what she had to say. >> that is why i'm pleased to announce, in the interest of keeping both buffalo bills and pittsburgh fans safe, i just spoke with commissioner roger goodell, who shares our concern that safety should be the top priority. i've also spoken to the mayor and our county executive about keeping our fans safe. the nfl has agreed with our assessment that we need to postpone tomorrow's playoff game until 4:30 p.m. monday afternoon. >> yeah, safety the top
