country may 9th. nascar racing legend richard petty slamming danica patrick saying the only chance she has of winning a sprint cup race is if everybody else stayed home. wow. now it's time for shep. from the state dinner at the white house to the more exciting one. think doritos meet mozzarella stick. earth shattering. also georgia looks to avoid a repeat of disaster from a week ago but are they ready this time? let's get to it. good afternoon to you and yours. it's 3:00 in new york city and a brutal winter storm is hitting the deep south. could be a catastrophic event of historical proportions. that's the actual warning from the national weather service two weeks after just a couple of inches of snow and ice crippled

atlanta and beyond for that matter. this time around officials say they have taken extra steps to keep people safe. salt trucks went out to pretreat the roads. georgia's governor said he's declared a state of emergency for nearly one-third of the state and atlanta public schools are closed today and tomorrow. you probably remember lots of kids in atlanta spent the night in a school two weeks ago when the freeways were just a mess. snow and ice stranded thousands of drivers on icy highways. one woman even had a baby on the jammed interstate. many folks abandoned their vehicles and some slept on the floors of super impacts and gas stations. it was an all around mess. let's look at the big wall. forecasters say parts of georgia could get up to nine inches of snow by tomorrow night. they say this storm could cause widespread power outages. the bad weather has already delayed or cancelled many thousands of flights. we have team fox coverage. let's get to janice dean in the

fox weather center. jonathan is live at a road crew depot in atlanta. how are we looking? >> reporter: shep, the road crews are using this mixture of salt and gravel. they're using it to treat some potential trouble spots. behind me you can see all of these trucks here. this is the georgia dot using this as a staging area. trucks are going out and pretreating spots known to be the first to ice in winter storms like the ones that we're anticipating. so far we've just seen rain an and off within the city limits but now we want to take you to live video 40 miles north in cartersville. traffic still moving along the major highways and also i-75 in cartersville still moving. nevertheless as we go into the evening officials are urging people who don't have to be out on the road to stay at home and weather the storm there so that we avoid the traffic bottle

necks that we experienced during the last winter storm here just two weeks ago. >> i heard the governor saying he's really worried about power outages coming. has that started? >> reporter: in fact, that may be the biggest concern in this storm. we haven't seen any significant outages just yet. but once we have the heavy freezing rain, there's a very real possibility of ice forming, not just on the power lines but also nearby trees which then fall onto the power lines, knocking out the electricity. the national weather service is comparing this to a severe ice storm that hit the metro atlanta area back in 2000. during that storm more than 300,000 homes went without electricity. so georgia power has been setting up staging areas for its trucks and florida power and light sending more than 300 of its workers into georgia to assist them if and when the power goes out. shep? >> jonathan live with us. thanks. history tells us that down

south when you overprepare the storm doesn't get there. janice? >> this one is coming. we're confident of that. the first wave is moving through. we want to point out we're getting frozen precipitation across texas, louisiana,. this is the first round. this time tomorrow as this next wave of low pressure moves in, we've got this cold air damming eastward and then the warm moisture from the golf moving through this surface layer of freezing air, freezing on contact on the roadways, the power lines. so from atlanta, columbia, charlotte, raleigh and richmond, this is going to be an ice storm and it could be of epic proportions. atlanta, georgia, we think you're going to be in this ice storm for 12 hours starting 8:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m., shepherd, it's a good thing that city is shutting down now. >> oh, man, that looks awful. as you go up the coast into the

northeast, you got a handle on this yet? >> i think so. i mean, obviously we're going to be into a period of now casting as the storm moves up towards the mid-atlantic and the northeast. so again really crucial across the southeast. that's going to be the big story. as this pushes up towards thursday, 12:00 a.m. d.c. this could be the storm where you get several inches of snow. philadelphia as well, new york, shepherd, there's that fine line between the freezing rain, the sleet and the rain. so we think five inches plus. i don't think we'll get over 8 inches around new york city but west of the city, north of the city and jersey, areas of jersey could get some jackpot snow totals. here's what we're thinking right now. philadelphia six to ten. d.c. four to eight. that's impressive for you. west of the city we could get 12 to 18 inches in the mountains. boston three to six. along the coast we're going to watch this storm. if this storm moves 100 miles to the east we'll be dealing with a

lot of snow for a great period of time. if it moves more to the west it will be more of a coastal rain event. that's the problem we have forecasting these nor easters. but i think those are solid numbers right threw. you'll check tomorrow to see if i'm right. >> have you named the thing? >> we don't name storms. i told you this. they have on the other channel. >> that's weird. >> it is weird. >> janice, thank you. all the best to you down in dixie. we'll keep them updated thanks. lawmakers in maryland are trying to turn off the lights at the natural security agency. the magazine is reporting that 8 delegates have now introduced a bill that would deny state support to federal agencies that engage in warrantless electronic surveillance. this bill would reportedly ban public utilities from providing water and electricity to nsa

headquarters. it would also prevent state courts from allowing the use of evidence that the agency has gathered in that way. it bill contains penalties, fines and even jail time for anyone who refuses to comply. so far no response from the nsa but in the past it's called the surveillance an important tool to prevent terror attacks. the dow and some breaking news here. look at that. we're up 215 points on the session, 1.3%. there's a lot going on here. stocks are surging as the new head of the federal reserve, janet yellen said this morning that she'll continue the central banks lower interest rate policy. that's a big deal. investors are pleased that congress is poised to raise the borrowing limit without political drama. remember the republicans talked about putting limits on that, they wanted some things in exchange for letting the national debt go up. today could be the first day of

may not look it but that was a bad moment. video from the skier, right when he fell and shattered his leg. it happened last friday at this peek which is just west of park city in utah. this is the spot high tup on to of this ridge here. his name is nicholas kanaan.

he was with his friend, both of them doctors. his friend hiked miles to get help. his friend hiked until he could get cell reception and called 9/11 but while they waited they built nicholas a snow cave and a makeshift splint using ski poles and then they waited. a helicopter eventually did come but it didn't have anywhere to land because of this horrible storm so the helicopter left. the friend eventually skied down the mountain, down the back of that thing to get help. when rescue crews showed up the it took them four hours to get nicholas down the mountain. ten hours after the fall he finally arrived at a hospital. nicholas kanaan is with us now and he is joining us from -- prompt ter changed too early. where are you, nicholas? >> i'm here. it's nice to see you. >> where are you? >> it's good to be here.

i'm in salt lake city. it's good be alive. >> i bet. it's my understanding that you ended up sort of boroughing into the snow right before a storm came? >> right. so once i broke my leg we splinted it up and tried to keep it from moving and being more painful. then matt started digging a snow shelter, a snow cave for me. then he took off to go get more help and i just kept digging. >> that must have been a horrible feeling with no one else there and here comes the storm. >> yeah. it wasn't fun. it wasn't fun at all. being in the snow shelter, at least i had some protection from the wind and from the elements. i was shivering uncontrollably the whole time and lost sensation in my feet. at least i was able to wait it out until search and rescue was able to find me. >> is all that weird stuff going through your head like will i ever get out of here? will they find me? >> oh, god, it was tough.

everything that goes through your mind is -- it just rushes through and you have all these different emotions and thoughts. yeah, you don't -- you think of all the what ifs and unfortunately at the time you really should be a little more practical. i spent a lot of time home making, trying to make my cave as comfortable and as warm as possible instead of thinking it was a possibility. >> everybody knew the storm was coming but you didn't think you would still be up there at 4:00 when it came, right? >> i was supposed to be done. i had a friend that go skiing with me the following day and i was supposed to meet him at the airport. i certainly did not expect to be still up on the mountain. >> you're home and recuperating, a little frostbite and a shattered leg. are you going to ski again? >> absolutely. just with a less cavalier nature. i'll certainly be taking it easy. i don't think you'll be able to make a nonskier out of me. >> did your buddy matt say

anything about what it was like leaving you up there and all the concerns he had? >> he had a tough time. we sat down and we had a little heart to heart. he said you got to hunker down and pretend -- and prepare for spending the night. i'll make sure that i get people to come and help you. really, it was the search and rescue team, they're all volunteers. more than 12 people showed up to come and help me. they left their wives, their families that night to save my life. had they not come, i probably would have been frozen to death up in the snow there. >> nicholas kanaan, glad you're good, man. nice to talk to you. >> it's great to talk to you. >> give your buddy a big hug, all right. >> will do. we're getting a new look at the big menu for tonight's state dinner at the white house. the french president and president obama -- hey, really? so loud in here sometimes. but more importantly than the state dinner, the folks at 7-eleven have them beat.

they have managed to mash up doritos with explosions of warm, gooy cheese. wait until you see this product, where you can get it and where you can't. hi, i'm terry and i have diabetic nerve pain. it's hard to describe, because you have a numbness, but yet you have the pain like thousands of needles sticking in your foot. it was progressively getting worse, and at that point i knew i had to do something. once i started taking the lyrica the pain started subsiding. [ male announcer ] it's known that diabetes damages nerves.

the world changing news from the culinary world. 7-eleven and doritos are apparently tested a new product, doritos, loaded. there is precedent that this will be amazing. remember from taco bell, a meat-like substance inside a taco shell. it made everyone here very happy. this new doritos, we found them and the writer describes them as

a hybrid food product which obviously sounds amazing, 7-eleven and doritos are test marketing this only in washington d.c. so what does it taste like? we turn to kevin cobb who said you think they're naturally crunchy but they weren't at all. they taste like doritos filled with queso but the consistency was like a regular cheese stick except filled with nacho cheese. i definitely got my cheese fix he went on to say. think of them as think but noncrunchy dor eat toe-like coating. if the response is good in d.c. they may go nationwide. we defer to you in the metro area. if you are in the d.c. area and tasted this, tweet us with details. then it says here in the united states as if washington wasn't in the united states. here at home, the president of

france is wrapping up his two-day stay. they held a very long news conference. i couldn't stay through it. the leaders spoke about a bunch of things. on syria president obama called the peace talks frustrating. both countries have signed an agreement with iran but the obama administration is taking issue with french business executives who visited tehran since the ease are of some of those sanctions on tehratehran. >> i can tell you that they do so at their own peril right now because welcome down like a ton of bricks. >> president hollande said french executives make their own decisions. tonight president obama and the first lady michelle are hosting a state dinner for the french president. as we've reported he's going stag. no former first lady this time, no movie star mistress either.

either way the white house is preparing quite the spread featuring, quote, the best of american cuisine. let me get this up here. here's the menu in case you're wondering about the dinner, menu entertainment, singer mary j. blij is set to perform. ed is live the white house. i'll get to the menu in a minute. what's going on? >> reporter: on the substance, you didn't want to sit through the whole thing. that's why i'm here. i'll give you the 411 i suppose. the bottom line is there are a lot of serious issues here. as you mentioned, the frustration that both these leaders have about syria. they've both been talking about wanting to stop the violence, the bloodshed and increase humanitarian aid but they admit that every diplomatic level they pushed hasn't worked. warning french businessmen that

current sanctions are still in place and will come down like a ton of bricks but the fact is there are not just republicans but bob menendez saying they're very skeptical of this agreement with iran and they think there needs to be new sanctions ready to go. another kind of a lighter moment was the fact that a french reporter asked the president whether he prefers france or britain in terms of a key ally. he said i have two daughters, they're beautiful. i don't choose among them. same for the countries. >> you've heard about the menu, right? >> reporter: i don't think there's any doritos on the menu. >> have you had them yet? >> reporter: i haven't had them yet but based on your description it doesn't sound healthy and for the state dinner menu, there's a republican congressman, rodney davis, he's

saying that the healthy school lunches that are being pushed right now, that they should apply to the state dinner menus and they shouldn't be having the ice cream and the fancy wines. >> i thought that was about trying to keep our children healthy. >> reporter: it is. i think he's trying to make a political point, don't you think? i doubt very seriously that at a state dinner we're going to see juice boxes. >> probably not but if you can get the new doritos you should. i'd like a report from ed henry on that. american caviar. finger ling potato, quail eggs. second course, the winter garden salad. it's in quotes so that must be a thing unto itself like that's a named thing, not just a description. that's why it's in quotes i'm assuming. then petite mixed rad itch, baby carrots.

main course dry aged ribeye beef, blue cheese, charred shallots and braised charde. this is the dessert menu, hawaiian chocolate malted ga nash and tangerines which are very good right now. have you picked up any? i like them in the box. then the wine. there was talk about how they weren't going to have wine that was more than $50 a bottle because they're trying to be frugal. you can read these yourself. there's something from napa. i was told there are some from virginia. yesterday i said the jefferson home was meant sell low. i guess if you are from new jersey you say meant sell low but everybody else should say mont cello. anyway, it's virginia wine which

i hear is delicious. that's for the state dinner tonight in case you're on the list. new round of republicans as the huge investigation into the investigation of chris christie over bridgegate continues. a lot of subpoenas and they give us clues about what it is they're looking for here. there are some questions to be asked. who knew and why did they do it, use the largest bridge in the world to get back at somebody. if you happen to visit north korea you might want to put this at this top of your to-do list. kim jong-un obviously looking at things but there's more to this.

later the governor is scheduled to hold private meetings with donors followed by a dinner. lawmakers back in new jersey put out a new round of subpoenas in their investigation of the bridge controversy. they're demanding access to the governor's helicopter records to see if the new jersey governor flew over the site of the traffic mess which would be out of the way. anyway, that bridge is to the north of where he would have been flying back to trenton. if he flew over that bridge and that helicopter that will tell you something ain't right here. e-mails from staffers indicated that they tied up traffic on the world's busiest bridge to get revenge on a political rival. the governor says he didn't knowing anything aboutseen any directly links him to the closures. they're talking to the people who run the helicopters who fly the governor around. if you were looking at a map and this is ground zero where he had

been during the day and trenton is down here, but the george washington bridge is here. >> they say the governor's three flights during this period when the lanes were closed, the helicopter did not go near the george washington bridge. still those subpoenas could be out there. the governor is in chicago and while he's having trouble back home he's racking in big bucks for the gop while he's on the road. as you said he's speaking in chicago for the city's economic club. they said thanks fo christie's work it's breaking fundraising records hauling in $6 million last month alone but the bridge seems to dog him even in the windy city. >> people who worked for me made some significant mistakes in judgment. when you are the leader of that organization and you're confronted with that, the first things that happens to you, it happened to me, is extraordinary

disappointment. >> the democratic national committee drafted this man, former ohio governor ted strictland who called christie a bully who should not be rga head, let alone president. >> either the governor knew and he is lying or he is the most inept, incompetent, chief executive imaginable. >> christie was in chicago at the george washington bridge there was a small group of anti-christie protestors demonstrating. >> 18 new subpoenas as of last night? >> added to the 20 or so already out, the special committee in trenton issuing more subpoenas. we may have someone else taking the fifth if they appear before that special senate assembly committee. bridget kelly who ordered the closings may be forced to take the fifth in public. meaning she may be the second official to appear before a

hearing and decline to testify. the first official was the former port authority official david wildstein who took the fifth, refused to testify. >> he didn't talk but he gave up hundreds of documents which is how we know what we do know now. from miss kelly they want her to talk but she's not giving documents. >> she's not talking, handing over everything. she's clamming up. >> thank you. u.s. officials have confirmed that the obama administration was debating whether to use a drone to kill a terror suspect overseas. the american is a member of al qaeda bho who is planning attac overseas. the suspect is a terrorist and a, quote, really bad guy, unquote. there are debates at the highest levels about whether it would be legal to kill him with a drone. back in 2011 the u.s. killed

anwar al-awlaki with a drone strike in yemen. krits said at the time it was wrong to kill him without due process against the u.s. constitution. but the feds said this guy was plotting to kill americans and citizenship should not be a shield. since then the obama care administration announced new guidelines for broken strikes on u.s. citizens. we're joined by a former prosecutor and former justice official. it's nice to see you. >> thank you. >> it's difficult as we discussed yesterday, if you have the intelligence that tells you without any doubt this guy is about to go kill americans, but you can't get to him. what do you do? >> then you kill him if they meet the constitutional standards that due process requires, that's a last resort, no other alternative, you can't get in there with boots on the ground, the threat is imminent, he's connected to it. there are guidelines that the justice department has to look at to say that the president,

yes, this is constitutional, no bill of attainer and then the president can go forward. the question is what's the basis for the intelligence that the government has about this guy? is it human intelligence which is much more reliable or is it just signal intelligence or cell you lar intelligence, the possibility of death by meta data if you will and that has to inform the president on what we should do. >> we're talking about overseas but the reason you make this because we can't get to him we will do this, you say to yourself, you think about it and you say, we can't let this guy kill americans if we know he's about to do it. okay, let's bring ourselves to the united states. what if you know another, let's say, dzhokhar tsarnaev is heading to boston to below someone up, can you make the

stretch to that and say, we can do that, too. we have's got to stop this mass killing? >> it's the same constitutional standard, generally speaking, applies, irrespective of geography. whether they're located in yemen or in boston is of little relevance to the constitution. if he's going to be an imminent threat, up can't do away with the threat any other way than killing him, then lethal force is lawful under those circumstances. the question then becomes how do you know he's going to do this? what's the source of that information, how reliable is it so you can make the determination about whether or not he is posing an imminent force. >> once you start killing him overseas then you can start killing them here, no need to go through one of those pesky trials or anything, just kill

them. >> no. >> you said it's the same logic. >> but the preference so grab and try the person. i'm telling you, shep, there are exceptions to that if the force is imminent and there's no alternative but to do that. i'm saying to you, that's true irrespective of where the person is located but the preference constitutionally, fourth amendment, fifth amendment is grab the person, try him in our courts. >> a lot of grease on that slope. >> it's tricky stuff. >> i wouldn't want to be the one to have to make the decisions. before he died the north korean dictator kim jong-un spent time looking at things. here he is. another image shows him looking at bras. the next shows big kim checking out some cookies and taking a bite. now north korea has opened a new

now to a man in northeast florida who is on trial for shooting dead a teenager, but he says he was simply standing his ground. it's a self-defense argument very similar to george zimmerman's. a jury last year acquitted george zimmerman after he claimed the teen threatened him. in this current case, a man in jacksonville says he asked teenagers in an suv to turn down their rap music at a gas station. they did, but then they didn't and he fired not one but ten shots after he says the teenagers inside taunted him and, quote, had menacing

expressions, unquote and then threatened him. he shot out the taillight twice. a 17-year-old inside the suv died. he said he didn't know anybody was hurt, had no idea when he and his fiance left the scene and ordered a pizza and drove back home for two and a half hours before connecting anyone. when detectives connected him the next day he said he opened fire because he feared for his life. the defendant was on the stand for a long time today, steven. it was compelling. >> very emotional. he was on the stand today for several hours of cross-examination. michael dunn really seemed to keep his composure and battled the prosecutor to at the very least, a draw. >> you were being disrespected by a mouthy teenager, weren't you? >> no. i was being threatened.

threatening to kill somebody isn't disrespect. that's just crazy. >> the 37-year-old computer programmer if convicted could face life if convicted. >> there are a lot of differences in this case as well. >> we're talking about a 17-year-old african-american, unarmed shot by an older white male. some key differences and some bizarre ones in this case. first there was no fight before the shooting. second, the number of eye witnesses here, and third, ten shots fired, not just one. perhaps the most unusual is the bizarre behavior after the shooting. he left the scene after firing ten shots into a vehicle with four young men, returned to his hotel with his girlfriend, walked his dog, ordered a pizza, made a drink, watched a movie, all without informing please. shepherd? >> steve hair began in our florida news room. thank you. so you go to the hospital to get surgery, the doctor stitches
