look at these massive waves crashing into japan's west coast. nbc news correspondent liz kreutz. earlier today there was a tsunami warning now it's been downgraded to a tsunami advisory, what are the biggest concerns right now? >> reporter: hey, kate, happy new year to you. yeah, definitely officials downgrading the tsunami warning definitely signals a lower risk of danger right now, officials are still telling people they should stay away from the coast and there's still an advisory in place, so tsunamis still a concern, on top of that as you mentioned the search for missing people right now is ongoing, according to local media, the area of ishikawa particularly hit very hard, they are being overwhelmed, some regions, with calls for help, one fire department got at least 50 calls

for people reporting collapsed homes, local media reports some of the people who are trapped, perhaps unconscious right now, so there's definitely a rescue operation under way, we know a building, multiple buildings perhaps have collapsed. one office building has collapsed and always with earthquakes there's a concern about potential aftershocks right now, officials told reporters there's a possibility that a magnitude 7 quake could hit japan in the coming days and if that happens there will be a concern of potential landslides, also more collapsed buildings and that continued threat of tsunamis, kate. >> what kind of stories are we hearing from people inside japan who have experienced all this, liz? >> reporter: definitely, it's a very scary way to start the new year and it does sound from local reports that a lot of people were at shrinesened temples for the new year, there's video coming out some of these shrines dramatically

shakingened people yelling out, it's very scary, and screams, you can see here from this video, some of the buildings broke out into flames and fires reported around parts of the region that were hit hard and also a concern for people, kate. >> i know japan isn't the only nation concerned right now, what's going on if the wider region? >> reporter: yes, so right now there are tsunami warnings expanding beyond japan, to south korea, north korea and parts of russia, in russia if you're out on a boat you should urgently get back to land and a small three-foot tsunami did hit south korea according to reuters and there's concerns something bigger could hit >> advisories still in place for that whole area. >> yes. with new year's day beyond us, millions of people are rushing to get home from their christmas and new year's eve

celebrations, today is expected to be one of the busiest days on the roads and in the skies, more than 2.5 million people are expected to fly today alone, meetologyist bill karins but we start with antonia himselfon, how is it looking. >> reporter: hey, kate, i don't want to jinx for everyone it has been pretty smooth sailing. they were worried that this was going to be part two what happened this time last year with the southwest meltdown, millions of people stranded in airports waiting for hours, sleeping in airports at times for two, three days, we all remember those images, and as we speak to some of the families and groups that have come through, they've been surprised

there's more staff here, they feel like tsa is moving along very well, so travelers at least as of right now are feeling good. take a listen to some of the folks i've met. >> this year's experience is very much organized, much more organized than last year's experience and i think travelers are aware of travel delays during the holidays, so people are more mindful about leaving early. >> did you deal with any delays? >> no, maybe about 20-minute delay leaving out of new orleans, other than that was it. travel was perfect. >> reporter: and according to aaa about 115 million americans are 50 or more miles away from home, we still see these large numbers nearing the pre-pandemic levels, keep in mind, if you're planning to get to the airport today or tomorrow you should plan, even though it's looking

good now, plan extra time, be ready if you have to check bags in particular, kate. >> people work from home now, they can work from anywhere, is that why we're not seeing so many people rushing today? >> reporter: absolutely, that's had an impact, and you know, in some cases people aren't rushing immediately back to work, they've chosen this day and they're kind of taking their travels more slowly than what we've seen in the past, lot of people hitting the roads, too, so people are strategizing the advice that i hear they're following, leave in the early morning when most of the people are off the road. kate. >> thank you. let's go to meteorolometeorolog karins. >> kate, this has been a great start for travel, just for, you know, starting with a new year with a nice dose of sunshine in most cases, there's a tiny bit

of snow maybe driving up interstate 81 in northern virginia, it's not sticking on the ground in most cases. of overall, the only bad weather in the entire country, a little chillier than you'd like, areas from chicago to marquette, we're in january now, much colder than that, for most part it's san diego weather for most of the southern half of the country. no problems from new york to seattle. this great weather isn't going to continue. take advantage of the travel conditions. the roads look great. tomorrow, we start to introduce some areas of some wet weather, minor delays in houston, not too bad, same in san antonio to dallas, this next storm coming in, the one that's going to cause a lot of problems, west coast late tuesday, areas of rain, very typical high elevation snow, wet weather moving through the areas of the southeast, by time we get to thursday and friday, east coast

is fine, but that west coast storm starts to make the trek into the central plains, a good dose of snow with it, too, so our snowfall forecast over the next seven days, the mid-atlantic to the four corner region, lot of people who haven't had snow yet -- >> that's a lot of white on your map. >> i have to hide this. couple of days away. >> bill, thank you. let's turn to israel now the military there says it will begin withdrawing some troops from gaza this week, at the same time the military says the campaign could last throughout the entire year, tensions are also rising in the nearby red sea, iran said one of its warships has moved into those waters. the u.s. destroying three boats belonging to an iranian-backed

militia. let's bring in nbc news forcorrespondent josh lederman. josh, happy new year to you. but let's start with the israeli troop withdrawal, how many are leaving gaza and why are they doing this right now? >> reporter: the idf doesn't disclose how many troops they have in gaza, here in israel a brigade is between 2,000 and 5,000 troops. you do the math, likely at least 10,000 troops that are going to be coming home for now, you might think that israel is withdrawing the troops, they're shifting to a lower intensity phase of this war or even winding down the war but israel say it's not so, they're going to great lengths that this in fact means the opposite, they're pacing themselves for what they expect to be a months' long war.

the economy can function so some of those troops can go back to gaza. >> israel's security struck down part of the law that overhauled the country's legal system, massive protests after the government pushed that law through before the war against hamas, what impact will today's supreme court decision maybe have within israel? >> reporter: well, it's going to raise real questions about prime minister netanyahu's future leadership, he really staked his prime ministership on this judicial overhaul that was so controversial, tearing the country apart from within, until october 7th changed the focus of everything, now the supreme court saying they're overruling a key part of that allowed the court to throw out laws that it deemed unreasonable, will this re-up some concerns of netanyahu or will the country remain focus on the war? >> what else do we know about

the iranian warship that arrived there, how is the u.s. responding to that? >> reporter: well, the u.s. says it's going to do whatever it needs to protect global shipping in the red sea, the british military say they're considering direct action against the houthis based in yemen, we're nchg toward a proxy war in the red sea, just as the u.s. says that one of its carrier strike groups, the uss ford based in the mediterranean is actually going home but at the same time the u.s. is now working with a coalition of some 20 nations and their navies to protect shipping in the red sea as we're continuing to see this crisis really escalate with more and more aggressive attacks from houthis onto these ships and the u.s. military responding as well. >> josh, thank you so much. appreciate it. coming up, a pay raise for millions of americans, what

devout catholic so we thought it was a striking personal message to her instead. >> and this is not the first demonstration taken place outside of the former speaker's home. he has not responded to the protest but has affirmed her support for israel. it is the first week of the new year and get ready for some incoming rain. kari hall has more in her seven-day forecast. >> nice weather today, temperatures in the low 60s and mostly sunny sky. but then by tuesday, we're already seeing the next round of rain coming in. most of the heavier rain reserved for the afternoon to the evening moving from north to south and lingering into early wednesday. thursday is our dry day in the forecast for the week. with another storm system coming in friday and into saturday. that will also bring in some colder air and as the sky clears on sunday, we'll have our temperatures starting out in the mid-30s. cool weather ahead as our highs in san francisco only reach the upper 50s. and at times we'll need the
