from nbc news, this is "today" with savannah guthrie and hoda kotb. from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> hi, everybody. good morning. welcome to "today." nice to have you along with us on this monday morning, it is martin luther king day. hoda's got the morning off. peter alexander is here. perfect person, we've got to talk politics and football. >> this was a perfect weekend for football. the detroit lions, their first playoff win in 32 years. when they lost won a football game in the playoffs, savannah, "cheers" was the show we were all watching. black and white by michael jackson and "the hand that rocks the cradle" one of the top movies. pulled that out of the hat. >> you're going full '90s for me. okay, good, we'll have a lot more on highlights. there's two playoff games tonight because of the weather, big story. a brutal cold hitting much of the country from the pacific northwest all the way to new england. >> more than 100 million americans are under windchill

alerts today. nearly 100 million also under winter storm alerts. and the bitter temperatures are going to extend through much of this week. we're going to get to your forecast in just a moment. but let us get started in iowa. the caucuses are being held tonight. the brutal cold there not stopping candidates from hitting the campaign trail over the weekend. >> according to the latest nbc news poll, donald trump holds what is a commanding lead. 28 points right now ahead of nikki haley. more than 30 points ahead of ron desantis. >> got it all covered, we'll break down those numbers in just a bit. let's start with nbc's hallie jackson in chilly des moines, hi, hallie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. 2024, the race for the presidency is finally here and it is not just the state of iowa that is frozen right now. the state of the race at the very top is as well. donald trump has dominated for months, if he gets above the 50% threshold fkd send a real message about his grip on the

gop. for the first republican primary contest, this morning a frigid start. but no sign enthusiasm is cooling off for supporters of former president trump as he urges the crowd to caucus no matter what. >> you can't sit home. if you're sick as a dog, you say, darling, i got to get back out. even if you vote and then pass away, it's worth it. >> reporter: despite fewer visits to iowa than any other republican in the race, mr. trump here with the last minute campaign blitz, passing out pizza, criticizing his competitors and more. >> these caucuses are your personal chance to score the ultimate victory over all the liars, cheaters, thugs, perverts, thugs. >> reporter: mr. trump 28 points ahead of the gop pack. some supporters braving below zero windchills just for a chance to see him. >> it's terrible. i can't feel my legs. can't feel anything. >> reporter: while the temperatures are not heating up

in iowa, the race for second place is. with former un ambassador nikki haley leading ron desantis for the first time here in a state he predicted just last month he would win. what's your level of confidence you can beat nikki haley here? >> we're going to do very well. fact of the matter is, i'm the only one that could possibly compete with donald trump in a republican primary. she cannot win conservative or poor voters. >> reporter: haley has drawn support from more independent and democrat-leaning caucus goers, with nearly half of her backers saying they'd vote for president biden over donald trump. haley seeing she's the best bet. >> the only way we're going to win the majority of americans is if we elect a new generational leader and leave the negativity and the baggage behind. >> reporter: an argument that appeals to these voters. first conservative caucus goers, corey and kim christianson. >> i like that she's doing really well in new hampshire. >> reporter: so the momentum factor. >> yeah. the momentum, i think, makes a difference for me. >> reporter: so there is a warning sign in these polling numbers for nikki haley when it

comes to enthuse yam of her supporters. only 9% of her supporters say they're extremely enthusiastic about supporting her. that's one of the big questions tonight. who comes out on top in the race for second? if donald trump does win, what is the margin? then the third question, a big wild card is the weather, it's always cold in iowa in january. we know that. but this has the potential tonight to be historic, will people stay home? will they turn out? and if they don't turn out, how does that change the state of play for these candidates? savannah? >> that sets us up nicely. we'll turn to kristen welker, who spent the weekend in iowa, left her voice there, and also joining us, nbc national political correspondent steve kornacki, hi, guys. let's do the numbers first, steve, kind of state of the race here it cannot be said enough. we could pretend there is a ton of suspense here, but let's not.

trump has got a nearly 30-point lead. in the past poll that was done. >> yeah. you're looking at something honestly we have not seen. this is a des moines register poll with nbc news. des moines register has been doing this for decades. this is the biggest lead, 20 points donald trump over nikki haley. in a final republican caucus poll they have ever seen. the last one was george w. bush. he did win the caucuses. this is also at 48%. this is the highest vote share ever recorded in a final pre-gop caucus poll. so trump with a commanding lead. there is suspense as hallie was just saying. this is just the change from the last poll. big cautionary note around haley. this is the popularity with iowa republicans. her popularity has kind of crashed. she was at 60% favorable last poll, down to 48. she was barely at 30% unfavorable last time, skyrocketed to 46%. there is some resistance to nikki haley building among republicans. >> okay. let's talk about why trump has such a commanding lead. and it all comes to the crucial

voting bloc in iowa, evangelicals. >> evangelicals in 2016 made up two out of every three ballots cast. donald trump lost to ted cruz. why? he lost evangelicals to 12 points to cruz. what a different eight years make. trump with an outright majority of evangelicals. ron desantis has made a concerted, strong pitch toward evangelicals. he's almost 30 points behind among them. >> okay. let's talk about the weather, something of an x factor. again, we're not talking about a nail biter here. so, you know, if people don't show up to caucus, doesn't mean we'll have a different result necessarily, but where do you think the enthusiasm is strongest? >> pretty stark in this poll. are you extremely or very excited about your candidate? trump supporters almost 9 out of 10. desantis 62%. and again, haley just 39% put themselves in that category.

again, if this is a measure of likelihood to brave the cold and get out there tonight, haley faces a pretty big gap. where that could come in, again, is that battle for second, desantis versus haley. >> this is the cozy factor. who wants to stay cozy? kristen, you've been very patient waiting over there. we have talked about it. it is essentially a race for second between haley and desantis. how do you see this playing out? >> this is mission critical for ron desantis. he has got to come in second place, savannah, if he doesn't, it's going to be very hard for him to justify staying in this race even though his campaign says they're in this for the long haul. he hasn't identified another state that he can win. for nikki haley, it would give her incredible momentum heading into new hampshire where she's in striking distance for donald trump. she's trailing him only by single digits. what does haley need? what's steve talking about? that turnout. her strongest supporters are those who are college educated, independents, those who would vote, by the way, for joe biden. are they going to turn out? we'll be watching all of that, and, again, the weather is the "x" factor.

>> desantis and haley are getting thumped by trump. but all their ads in iowa, you were just there over the weekend, they're just attacking each other, which is in a way kind of crazy. they're just going after each other for second place, which, by the way, there is no second place in a presidential race. >> this is what we have seen throughout the campaign. you're right. they're attacking each other. we have seen this in the debates, which donald trump has skipped all of the debates. haven't hasn't hurt him one bit. it's only helped propel him to this huge lead. they have started to sharpen their attacks against trump in recent days, but it hasn't had an impact, clearly. >> well, we'll see what happens tonight. it may affect what happens in new hampshire and down the road. kristen, it is only the first day of the of the 2024 race. we need you to rest up, my friend. >> i will. i will find it and bring it back. >> thank you very much. got a lot more from iowa tonight on nbc nightly news. kristen is joining hallie and

tom llamas with special live coverage. that will stream on nbc news now starting at 7:00 eastern. >> we just touched on the brutal cold in iowa, but it is now stretching from coast to coast. tens of millions under windchill alerts. and the punishing arctic blast has arrived. we will get to dylan's forecast in a minute. first nbc's ges jesse kirrish is bundled up where people are dealing with the cold and the snow. jesse, good morning. >> peter, good morning. here in grand rands the temperature is hovering around 0 degrees, but factoring in the windchills it feels more like negative 20 degrees. it's been snowing in grand rapids since last tuesday and you can see here how much is on top of this fire hydrant, may have been even more frankly at some point, but the wind gusts t gnarly wind blasts have been blowing snow around and that's made visibility tricky as well. unfortunately, this series of winter storms appears to be responsible for at least four deaths across the country and

more tough weather is expected ahead. this morning, waking up to bitter cold. so when it's like this, and it is calm and just falling down. >> it is fine. it feels cold. >> reporter: but when you feel that wind? >> i felt like my jaw was freezing. it was very cold. >> reporter: in grand rapids, michigan, today is expected to be the seventh straight day of snow. the frigid punch also hitting millions with bone chilling temperatures, making the job even harder for first responders. in oregon, officials say a woman was killed in an rv fire after a tree fell on the vehicle. first responders finding some roads impassable. and a fire hydrant believed to be likely frozen. much of the country could dip 20 to 45 degrees below average today, including parts of texas, where cold weather has overwhelmed the power grid in recent years. >> you lose power. you lose heat, and you risk your pipes freezing.

we might look into installing a generator, just in case. >> reporter: for those braving the cold getting around has been a mess. hundreds of flights canceled because of the storms, stranding passengers. even amtrak canceling some trains. and driving has been treacherous, too, with icy roads and blinding snow. officials say this colorado highway was hit by an avalanche. >> it's overall just been a terrible, terrible winter. and it came out of nowhere. >> reporter: the travel issues are unfortunately not behind us yet. according to flight tracker, flight aware, today alone, u.s. airports seeing at least more than 1,500 cancellations so far on the day. peter? >> you can see the love statue behind you put nobody the loving these temperatures these days. jesse kirsch, thank you.

>> the fuzzy feelings are not outside. let's look at the numbers here in sioux city the cold. it is not just in the midwest. this extends all the way down into texas. so we have windchill advisories, watches, warnings in effect for 105 million people. take a look at some of the cold temperatures we will see. des moines 30 degrees below zero. chicago feels like 26 below. nashville, feels like 0 where we've already had more snow on the ground in nashville than we have in philly, d.c., new york city, and temperatures are going to stay on the cold side, chicago a high on monday of only -- or today of 1 below zero, that's the actual air temperature. tomorrow we get up to 1. wednesday is a little bit better, 17 degrees and then we're going to continue with cold temperatures finishing off the week in buffalo, stay in the lower 20s with the lower 20s with the lake-effect snow and it is going to just remain brutally cold

but this sets the stage for some snow that's going to make its way to the northeast, peter. we move on to a grim milestone in the middle east over the weekend, 100 days the awful terror attacks that ignited the israel-hamas war, this morning israel is vowing to increase its military pressure while hamas has released a disturbing new video showing three of the hostages who are still being held in gaza nbc's chief foreign correspondent richard engel has the very latest this morning richard, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, peter, it's hard to believe 100 days on, and israel is pressing ahead with its campaign to destroy hamas and is destroying large parts of the gaza strip in the process. despite international criticism israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that no one will stop us in this campaign, even as israel is facing charges of

genocide in an international criminal court there was yet another attack overnight on american forces in the red sea. iranian-backed houthi in yemen firing a missile towards an american destroyer it was shot down, according to the pentagon it is part of the widening war in the middle east it's been 100 days since hamas launched a surprise attack that israel had once dismissed as impossible and unimaginable. overnight, hamas released a video of three hostages, including this woman who became a symbol of hamas cruelty when she was kidnapped from a music festival and taken into gaza on a motorcycle the government says at least 100 hostages are still alive in gaza the fate of the youngest hostage mother, brother, and father,

turns 1 this week. >> want this to be and his family remain unclear. kafir, kidnapped along with his mother, brother and father turns one this week. >> i want this to be over, really i just want them back. i want them back. >> reporter: the 2.3 million palestinians in gaza have gone through 100 days of living hell since the hamas massacre around 24,000 have been killed by israeli strikes according to the health ministry run by hamas. israel says it takes great care to warn palestinians before carrying out attacks and says hamas uses civilians as human shields. gazans say since they can't leave the area even while it's under attack, they are all by definition human shields. this doctor is one of hundreds of thousands of gazans forced by israeli troops to leave northern gaza for the south where people are overcrowded with barely enough food, water, and medicine >> 100 days of suffering with a tragedy of a loss of feeling

afraid >> reporter: negotiators say that a deal has been reached for some medicine to enter gaza for both the hostages and palestinian civilians. peter? >> richard, thank you. also this morning, the search is continuing for two u.s. navy seals. it is happening off the coast of somalia. the seals fell into the water during a nighttime mission while attempting to board a boat happened until the gulf of adan. molly hunter is on the story, what are you hearing >> reporter: good morning. search and rescue efforts remain underway this morning. unbelievably two u.s. defense officials tell nbc news a seal team was attempting to board a boat suspected of carrying elicit good, possibly weapons, last week off the coast of somalia during a nighttime mission when one of the seals slipped and fell overboard in rough waters now, the second seal jumped in to attempt to rescue the first sailor that's protocol. both disappeared in the dark. m

still searching for them by air and by sea their identities have not been made public. >> we just saw on the map ther water. as of this morning, the u.s. military is still searching for them by air, by sea. and at this time their identities have not been made public savannah >> as we saw on the map there, molly, it's pretty close to the red sea, is there any connection between what the seals were doing and the operations in the red sea? >> reporter: yeah, savannah. it is all in the same neighborhood the gulf of adan is right off the coast of yemen you can see on the map it leads into the red sea on this specific raid u.s. defense officials say there is no direct connection. the seal team is not part of operation prosperity guardian. that's the international coalition defending against the houthi attacks in the red sea. national security council coordinator john kirby said yesterday, savannah, this was a normal operation by the u.s. military in an effort to stop the flow o weapons and supplies to weapons where, of course, the houthi militant group is. >> back over to dylan fo another look at the forecast anybody enjoying some warmth

plants to double-check boeing's work ten days after that blowout, it's punched a whole through boeing's reputation. as a critical boeing customer, alaska, says it will now send its own inspectors to check the quality of boeing's work alaska writing in a statement, we will also enhance our own quality oversight of alaska aircraft on the boeing production line to validate work and quality. that move comes after the faa announced it will not approve the max 9 to fly again until it is confident the plane is safe in a statement, the faa saying after reviewing boeing's proposed inspection and maintenance instructions, the faa determined it needed additional data for approving them >> it had significant problems just come off the line and we believe there are other manufacturing problems as well. >> reporter: the slightest black eye for boeing comes five years

after those two deadly max 8 crashes overseas killed 346 people the max 8 grounded for two years. >> there is no doubt that the confidence that airlines have in boeing at this time has been diminished as a result of this incident, as well as previous incidents. it is a cumulative effect that has been plaguing the 737 max. >> reporter: scrutiny also expanding to include spirit aero systems which manufactured the fuselage for boeing with that suspect door plug already installed. spirit aerosystems has struggled with quality for years >> we're not going to point fingers there. yes, it escaped their factory, but then it escaped ours too >> reporter: in a statement, spirit aerosystems says as a company, we remain focused on the quality of each airline that leaves our facility. ed pearson who testified before congress on the max 8 says he does not believe boeing has addressed its core problems. >> even if a supplier makes a mistake, does something wrong,

boeing is supposed to catch it and supposed to make sure that that doesn't happen. >> none of this sounds speedy. tom, how long could it take for the max 9 to be back in the air? and what impact will it have in the meantime on travelers? >> reporter: i would say it became abundantly clear this weekend there is no timeline the faa will not be rushed the faa says it will review the first door plug inspections before it decides whether to go ahead and look at the rest of the 171 planes and then do a more detailed inspection so that means united and alaska will continue canceling potentially hundreds of flights each day they're trying to use different planes when they can, not to inconvenience customers, but they will have to trim their schedules in some cases. as we're in that spot, boeing put out a statement saying they are going to immediately bolster their quality assurance and quality control in their own factories. >> wow, tom, thank you very much we move now to the weather, get another check of dylan's forecast. >> let's talk snow and ice.

we are back with our money-saving monday series the new year is the perfect opportunity to reset your finances here to help tackle those common mistakes and save some money is nbc's vicky nguyen vicky, nice to see you >> hi, great to see you, happy new year. >> let's get through this if we can. a lot of people did a lot of holiday shopping now dealing with the aftereffects of that a lot of people did the pay now and buy later. how can we help those folks? >> yeah. there is this term floating around called phantom debt or shadow debt. it really refers to all of that debt consumers are taking on through buy now, pay later plans. you have seen them they're offered by big companies. like affirm, afterpay. what they do is they give you a chance to pay something off

interest free in installments, but the challenge is these loans are not being reported to the credit agencies. and some estimates have them at $46 billion in phantom debt that the government doesn't know about and sometimes consumers lose track of. >> all of a sudden, you are trying to play catchup. don't even realize how much you owe when the new year begins it begins to pile up. >> speaking of piling up, subscriptions pile up these days if you are not careful, you find yourself paying for streaming services and who knows what else. >> we're on subscription overload subscription it is not just that. razors, car washes, shampoo, laundry detergent. anything a company can get you to set and forget, they want you to because it is profitable. to combat that, you really need to sit down and do an audit. sit down with that credit card bill and go through line by line what can you delete? what don't you need anymore? the average consumer spends $200 a month on subscriptions times more than people realize they're

actually spending. look at your bills. i know you are not an impulsive according to cnr research. >> is that right that's a ton. >> it's two and a half times more than people realize they're actually spending. look at your bills i know you are not an impulsive person, peter. >> careful. >> but for those of us who dabble in online shopping, it's helpful to delete the auto save for the credit card. if you have to go downstairs, get your wallet, manually enter that credit card number, you may be less likely to make that impulse buy. >> how many times do you want to sign up for something, in 30 days, cancel it, you never do. >> it could be hundreds of dollars you save. >> let's talk about interest rates. they're high people are just carrying debt, and it ends up growing and growing on them. >> credit card interest rates are really scary right now as of last week, the average credit card interest rate was 27%. that means for every $100 you put on your credit card that you don't pay off, you are having to pay back $127. it could be really hard to climb out of that level of debt. first, if you can, pick up the phone and call your credit card. wallet hub did a study and they

found that 77% of the time when you call and say, hey, could you lower my interest rate they do. that's money on the table for you. and switch to 0% apr card, that will give you 12 to 18 months to get ahead on your bills, pay down some of that debt and lending tree recommends maybe taking out a personal loan, the interest rate will be lower to pay down your credit card, use that loan to pay down credit card bills and that will improve your credit scores, which is huge. >> savings for individuals as well, this is a way that you cannot save money, but make money in the process, too many people have regular savings accounts, which means you're leaving money on the table. >> yeah, those regular savings accounts are giving you maybe half a percent back. last year we talked about this, this is really the year, of high yield savings accounts we're talking about 5% that you could be making on your money, which is simple, it's easy, that is the one upside of rising interest rates that you can make more off of your savings look for those accounts. sometimes they're online banks, sometimes they're brick and

mortar banks but a lot more are off offering high-yield savings accounts it's super flexible, not like a cd, where you lock up your money for six months or a year at a time you've got this 5%, apy, it's growing your money as you speak, if you have to make a big purchase, it's perfect. >> another good reminder, take advantage of the benefits you're getting from your companies as well, a good way to get something as well. >> that's huge, a lot of us don't take advantage of financial elness options given to us. we have the 401(k), remind people, max that out, put in as much as your company will match because that's free money. but, a lot of times, companies are now offering your help with student loan management, they're giving you stipends for wellness, if you go to the gym, that kind of thing, and access to free financial advisers so when you're looking at your compensation package, look at the overall package, not just the salary number, but what are those other benefits and maximize them. >> just call, just ask, the

worse they can do is say no, vicky, nice to see you, thanks for the good advice. the importance of strength training, and simple ways to add it to your exercise routine, but in order for small businesses to thrive, they need to be smart, efficient, savvy. making the most of every opportunity. that's why comcast business is introducing
