all right, this breaking news bone chilling arctic air grips much of the u.s. >> as millions of americans are traveling home from the thanksgiving holiday. plus, shocking stowaway. how a woman evaded multiple airport screening checkpoints and made it on board a paris bound delta flight. and just a day after an organic egg recall, the fda is investigating. yet another salmonella outbreak. we'll tell you what to check for in your refrigerator. hello, everyone, and thank you so much for joining me. this weekend after thanksgiving holiday. i'm fredricka whitfield. we begin this holiday weekend with ferocious winter weather trapping residents and travelers in parts of the great lakes region and leaving more than 6 million people under winter weather alerts. just a look at this highway in pennsylvania. cars already
7:02 am
getting stranded in near whiteout conditions there. the national weather service is advising people to delay their travel if possible, as up to five feet of lake effect snow will paralyze some areas. and on top of all of that, a bone chilling blast of arctic air is bringing below freezing temperatures to nearly 70% of the u.s. population over the next few days. that deep freeze is being felt from north dakota to the gulf coast. meteorologist allison chinchar is here with the latest forecast. i mean, this is dangerous weather. if not very uncomfortable, especially when you're talking about that amount of snow. >> when you're talking 4 to 6ft in a short period of time, there are stretches of interstate 90 that are shut down right now between buffalo and cleveland and for good reason, because it's simply whiteout conditions. and it's not the only area even portions. look at this. this is blue mountain lake, new york now, i looked at the same camera yesterday and i want you to know there is a lake in the background. you can see it yesterday. you can't see it
7:03 am
today. and it's because of how thick the snow is coming down, but also the fog that's in some of these areas so imagine driving through similar conditions. it makes it extremely difficult. you've got all of these lake effect bands coming down across portions of michigan, ohio pennsylvania and new york. the heaviest snow at the time is coming down now across portions of lake erie and lake ontario. and that's where we're likely going to see some of the highest accumulations when this is all said and done, could be four to even six feet. again, not inches. feet of snow total. you also have an entirely separate system down here that's causing some winter weather advisories in place across the ohio and mid-mississippi valley. that includes saint louis and also louisville, kentucky those areas could see 2 to 5in. so again, not necessarily as high as the other areas. we're seeing but still impactful if you have to drive through those areas today to maybe either get home or drive to or from wherever you need to go. overall, most of the areas up along the great lakes, that's where you're going to see those higher totals. keep in mind for some of these areas,
7:04 am
we've already had two feet of snow come down now we could be adding another several feet on top of that. and some of these snow shower bands are coming down at 2 to 4in an hour. so even if you have plows out there trying to clear it, it makes it very difficult for them to get back to these same spots so quickly. the reason you have this lake effect snow is you have those warm lakes and the cold air. at least you know by comparison speaking. i'm not saying the lakes themselves are warm, but you have that very cold air over top of it that creates the lake effect snow. but even in other areas where you don't have the snow, you still have that bone chilling cold. look at minneapolis, for example. the actual temperature right now is seven degrees. it feels like minus eight with the wind chill. the minneapolis national weather service office telling folks, get ready this is about as warm as it's going to be all day. okay, chicago currently 17, but it feels like only three degrees. but this isn't just a northern problem. all of these areas you see here in blue are expected to have those temperatures at or below freezing as we go through the next several days, and that
7:05 am
does include fred, even some areas as far south as the gulf coast. >> that's incredible. looking at that map, nearly the entire country is very very chilly and cold, even if they're not usually used to it this time of year all right, allison chinchar, we'll check back with you. thank you. so much. so what does this forecast mean for the millions of holiday travelers? let's discuss now with travel expert and the points guy founder brian kelly. brian, good to see you. so a record number of people are hitting the road. let's start with that just if you're driving this holiday weekend. and when you look at what allison just showed us, the northeast and the great lakes region, this is treacherous weather. so what's your recommendation to people who feel like they've got to hit the road? or at least they've got to get to their destination via road at some point? >> my my recommendation is safety first. your job will be there when you get back. people will understand. do not put your safety just to get home. you know the roads can be terrible so luckily the airlines will let you change
7:06 am
your flights. the only problem is tomorrow's suspected to be the busiest air travel day ever in the united states so even if the airlines let you change, there's a very good chance flights are sold out for several days. so. oh my gosh, call the airlines or chat bot the airlines. that's my favorite tip go into the airline app. many have chat bot features that will get you through way quicker than waiting on the phone. okay, and see what the next available flight. >> so say you are flying and you know whether it's the chat bot or whether you've checked in some other way that your flight is on time, you get to the airport and you know the weather has changed everything. and so now you are hearing about delays and cancellations. what's your recommendation to people about, you know what do they need to perhaps bring to the airport or be prepared to do if they get to the airport and suddenly they've got a canceled or delayed flight well, the first thing you need to do is before you leave for the airport is make sure your airline has your contact information. >> if you bought a flight through an online travel agency, sometimes your
7:07 am
information isn't given to the airline. so the airline can't contact you to to let you know that it's delayed. so go in and make sure that your flights are still on time and that the airline has your information and just know the department of transportation has new rules that went into effect in october. if you are a domestic flight is delayed by three hours or more, you can cancel for a full refund. you don't have to take a voucher you can just try travel again and that's six hours for internationally. so for some families you might say, you know what? we're going to put our travel on. hold this week. at least knowing that you can get a full refund is peace of mind but otherwise i use an app called flighty. flighty actually, will alert you usually before your airline does. if there's a delay i will say one thing though, even if your flight is delayed, you still have to go to the airport and go to the gate. because i had an experience recently where the airline un delayed my flight and it went out without me because i thought it was still delayed so still go to the airport if you intend to fly. >> oh my goodness. and it seems that everybody these days, you
7:08 am
know, wants to carry on their luggage and they feel like there's going to be enough room in the overhead. but aren't we all finding out that somehow there seems to be a shortage of overhead space? i'm not sure what's going on with that one, but say that's you traveling. you know with, um, you know, a carry on, but you're in zone 7 or 8. i mean, what do you tell people about how to prepare for the inevitability of having to check your bag well, i know exactly what's going on. >> the airlines are jacking up the price of checked bags. so more and more people are saying, i'm not paying that $75. so they're bringing their luggage on the plane. now, american airlines this holiday season is rolling out a program where they will they will buzz you in line if you try to board too early because the airlines also want you to get their credit cards and to pay for that priority boarding. my best tip is just try to get to the gate early, get in line wherever you're boarding is, and honestly, even if you fly once or twice a year
7:09 am
getting that airline co-brand credit card, you might get, you're going to get more miles than it is the annual fee for several years, and you'll get priority boarding, so don't try to steal it just get it by getting one of those low fee annual credit cards from the airline. >> you fly the most kind of a paying forward in a in a whole nother way. okay, so then now let's look ahead to the, you know, christmas hanukkah, you know, traveling new year's season. if you haven't purchased your ticket now, what's your best recommendation on if you are going to be flying how to plan now for a december deals? >> yeah, so there are deals out there. we saw some deals come through for black friday, but even if you want to get away for christmas or new year's you've got to be flexible. so one of my favorite tools is google flights google.com slash flights. it's it's a free way to search for flights. they have a little tab called explore where you can put in your home airport and then say you're open to going anywhere in the caribbean. you just want to get away for these certain dates. it will show you a map or europe, say europe's a
7:10 am
great time over, over new years. it's off peak. hotels are cheap. you can actually just put in your home airport or just put in anywhere, and it will show you a map of all the cheapest flights. so be flexible that's how you find the deals these days. and also, i'd be remiss to say use your frequent flier miles. there are still a lot of ways to use your points, even going to great places like mexico or paris for christmas and new years. >> oh cool. what's that app again so point me is a site you can use that will allow you to use your points. >> it'll tell you how to use your points and what airlines are available. and the other one is google flights is how you search for flights. but they have a little tab called explore and that's where you want to put in your home airport. and you can just say caribbean and it'll show you a map and you can sniff out the cheapest fares, jot that one down. >> i like that all right. brian kelly willing to go anywhere on, you know, moment's notice that sounds fun. >> thank you so much arctic breeze. >> no, that's right. for some warmth have a great rest of
7:11 am

7:17 am
mccormick, the incoming pennsylvania senator, recently elected. he was there at the table with his wife, dina powell. but we also saw some of other donald trump's picks for top administrative posts. we saw howard lutnick one of his co transition chairs, as well as donald trump's selection for to lead the commerce department. we also saw mike waltz his selection for nsa director and also some members of trudeau's cabinet. and i left out doug burgum donald trump's selection for to lead the interior department. but look, as you mentioned fred, this is a very important moment in their relationship. and it does come just days after donald trump had issued that threat to both mexico and canada, saying that on his first day in office, one of the first executive orders that he wants to sign would be a massive hike on tariffs and tariffs on goods coming from both canada and mexico. he threatened a 25% tariff and said that that was mainly if the countries did not do more to crack down on drugs and
7:18 am
crime, and also more migrants coming over both the northern and southern borders. now, this is actually something that we heard the prime minister address yesterday in an unrelated press conference before he flew to florida to meet with donald trump. take a listen to what he said one of the things that is really important to understand is that, you know, donald trump, when he makes statements like that, he plans on carrying them out. >> there is no question about it. our responsibility is to point out that in this way, he would be actually not just harming canadians who who, who work so well with the united states. he would actually be raising prices for american citizens as well and hurting american industry and businesses now, fred it's very clear that, you know, donald trump likes to have these meetings face to face. >> he always says that he is the best negotiator, that he can have any sort of deal be made in person. and i think
7:19 am
part of this is clearly what's going to happen moving forward is whether or not a big question is whether or not donald trump will actually carry out on that threat. we know that justin trudeau, though, is taking it very seriously. right after donald trump had issued that tariff threat. trudeau and donald trump spoke, we reported. a source familiar with the call said that it was a productive conversation. and then this morning as well, we saw trudeau leaving his hotel in west palm beach reporters, including our own cnn's kate marr, asked him how the meeting went. he said it was an excellent conversation, but refused to say more than that. so we're staying tuned to learn more details on this. fred. >> all right. we look forward to that too. thank you so much. alayna treene. all right. for more let's bring in cnn political analyst and princeton his princeton university history professor julian zelizer. julian, great to see you. so in his first term, you know, trump pushed through the us-mexico-canada agreement to replace the nafta trade agreement. but now, as he's promising a 25% tariffs on canadian and mexican goods, also china. what what is trump. you know attempting to gain
7:20 am
right now by making these tariff threats, which most economists say will only raise prices for a lot of americans. >> well, i think right now he's trying to use them as a threat before he's even taken office. he's trying to force negotiations, essentially, and extract promises from the prime minister. and i assume more discussions will be underway. part of it is him asserting power. he again isn't president yet. so you have two presidents at once phenomenon. and simply by having the negotiations by declaring the threat about day one, everyone is reminded of his looming presidency. but also right now he's taking up negotiation space. when biden is still in office. >> and this makes it rather unique. you know, it is one sitting president at a time, but you know donald trump is getting a lot of attention. you know, he's he's making sure he's getting a lot of attention about what it is he plans to do. not not just with
7:21 am
his cabinet picks, but in terms of policy. um can you recall another president who has taken this kind of step? he did do so during his first term, ahead of his first term as well. but he hasn't even been sworn in and and you've got the canadian prime minister who is having face time with him we know that. he's been on the phone with the mexican president and ukraine's president. how unique is this well, this is an issue that happens before there were tensions, for example, between herbert hoover as he was leaving office in his final months and fdr as the depression was taking place. >> fdr would not cooperate with hoover and try and essentially save what he could for the administration. dwight eisenhower in 1953, as president elect, meets with winston churchill and traditionally the state
7:22 am
department guides conversations short conversations between president elect and foreign leaders. and one other example is jimmy carter. in 1980, was very critical of reagan before reagan took office. but like everything else, its scale and scope. the president elect donald trump, does it louder. he does it more aggressively, and he does it more visibly without restraint or guardrails compared to some of those other examples. >> president biden also weighing in, you know, as he finishes out his term in the white house, this is what he had to say about trump's tariff plans this week. >> i hope we rethinks it. i think it's a counterproductive thing to do. you know, look, one of the things you've heard me say before is that we we have an unusual situation in america. we're surrounded by the pacific ocean, the atlantic ocean, and two allies, mexico and canada. and the last thing we need to do is begin to screw up those
7:23 am
relationships and reportedly, you know biden has said he plans to have at least one more meeting with the president elect, having made that statement also seeing them at the white house not so long ago. >> does this make for an even more awkward i guess, transition yeah, it will be awkward, but at least it's happening smoothly. >> and i think the president is trying to provide whatever guidance he can for what he knows will be a very different kind of presidency and any advice, any words of wisdom he is hoping somehow reach him and i think at the same time, the president elect has this moment he's using the threat to not have to implement the tariffs. so he's making a big bet. and these conversations are all going to happen in the next few weeks, all at the same time. and, um, you know history is unpredictable. so we'll see how this unfolds. >> all right. and you'll let us know as history unfolds. julian
7:24 am
zelizer, great to see you. thank you so much and have a great rest of your holiday weekend all right. still ahead, we're following breaking news out of the middle east where syrian rebels have taken control of most of the country's second largest city. plus, a dire new warning from the world health organization on the worsening crisis in gaza there are amazing things that are happening all over the world, things that can make our lives better. >> that's the goal of my podcast to try and find the secrets to a longer and happier and healthier life, and then we bring those secrets to you. listen to chasing life wherever you get your. >> for more than a decade, fauci has been trusted again and again and again. fauci got to ask your doctor about pozega this is poof. >> the fastest growing pet odor eliminator in the world oh, it's safe for people, pets and

7:29 am
assault is reigniting a conflict that has largely been dormant for years. cnn's ben wedeman is following the developments. ben, do we know what may have triggered this offensive well, this offensive only began on wednesday, fredricka and what we do know is that over the last year and a half or so the situation on the ground in northern syria has changed. >> for one thing, preceding that, of course, the russians intervened in this syrian civil war in september of 2015, providing sort of critical air support and ground support to the syrian regime. however, as a result of the ukraine war they did reduce their presence in syria at the same time, starting going back to october of last year. hezbollah, which also intervened to help the regime in damascus during the
7:30 am
civil war it had provided thousands of crack sort of elite well trained, well disciplined fighters to help the regime. they went back to lebanon for the most part, as a result of the war with israel and of course, iran, which also provided weaponry and advisors to the syrian government. iranian forces in syria have been repeatedly struck by the israelis as well therefore, sort of the three main backers for the syrian government have either simply gone or are much diminished in terms of their presence in the country. and in the meantime these rebel factions, which in the past had been quite divided, oftentimes fighting among themselves, seem to have settled their differences, at least temporarily. and one of those, the major faction of this rebel coalition, is a group that used
7:31 am
to be affiliated with al qaida, although it has distanced itself in recent years from that ideology nonetheless, they clearly are prepared for this. they saw that perhaps now the moment is right and made this move on aleppo, a move that really can. the only description really is a lightning offensive. they very quickly have taken dozens and dozens of villages to the west of aleppo. and yesterday morning we were reporting about them approaching the western outskirts. now what we're seeing in terms sometimes live video from there is that they've gotten all the way to the center of the city in the last few hours. it appears they've taken over aleppo's international airport as well. so this has been a shock for the syrian government
7:32 am
definitely. but many observers of the situation in syria who simply did not see this coming, fredricka. >> all right ben wedeman, thank you. so much three employees of the aid group world central kitchen were killed in an israeli airstrike in southern gaza earlier today, according to palestinian health officials. the idf says the vehicle they struck was unmarked and carried a terrorist who took part in the october 7th massacre. this is not the first time the nonprofit aid group, led by chef jose andres, has been attacked by the israeli military. in april seven aid workers, including foreign nationals from the world central kitchen were killed in an israeli strike as they were delivering food to starving civilians in gaza and as hunger continues to mount during israel's ongoing intense military operation in the north of the enclave, aid agencies have warned that people there are on the brink of famine.
