good morning, we begin with another day of flight cancellations at dia yesterday. a third of the flights did not even make it into the air. >> today, it could be more of the same. 120 flights so far. our cbs 4 chris spears is at the airports. chris, good morning, how is it looking? >> it's snowy. denver airport lorted after the normal 30-year snow average for denver is 5.7 inches. we've seen a one day. here's the crews around the property clear. so that you can come out and make your flight, but i want to let you know, the roads getting here to the airport are very icy and snow packed.

slippery conditions coming in from i-70. you can see the cars in the parking lot covered with snow. these winds gusting out of the north. dave aguilar at times, 20 miles-an-hour. the direction is more northerly verses northeast. that's a good sign the low pressure is making its jont away. >> the backside of the low is going to keep snow coming. as it moves away, things are going to improve around here today. we spent all weekend long telling you it's going to take all day monday and tuesday to -- still winter storm warning for most of colorado including the mountains and eastern plains and denver. chris told you, 6.9 official, that will probably go up. fort collins and littleton, boulder, 11 inches. lewisville,

the snow that's coming down that's making for a tough commute, it's the snow on the ground. it's piled up. we have icy and snow packed condition s s. if you're heading to the airport, you heard from chris there, you want to allow yourself plenty of time and call ahead to make sure your time is going before you venture on the roads. the side streets dangerous this morning. they did not necessarily get plowed as cities are focusing on the main thorough fairs in their cities and you have cdot with their plows out focusing on the highways. look at our cbs 4 tech camera. we have a couple of closures along the roadway. let me tilt up the map. it's from lock bowie on the state line of i-76 and airport along i-70 and that's through the kansas city line. >> thanks, joel. it's 5:04. we're keeping a close eye on the road. >> it's the morning with you you have to dig out and plow the

have to deal with whether it's the freeway, or a side street. there's going to be snow. when you move from one to the another, the snow piles up especially if the plows pushed it to the side. be prepared. here in centennial, we got to this low cation and a -- this location and they've pushed the snow to the side and more snow has formed around the blocks of snow. clearly showing you there's so much snow coming in. those are the challenges you'll likely face. make sure to give yourself time and go slow as you deal with the snow. live in centennial, shaun chitnis. >> it could be a snow drive. >> shaun, we appreciate that. we want to update you on school closures. aurora schools are closed, littleton and jefferson schools closed. you

really think hard about what the democratic party stands for. >> as i think about what happened tonight, i think the people of iowa have sent a very profound message to the political establishment. >> as is usually the case after this first contest, we did see candidates exit the race. former maryland governor o'malley who failed to gain traction for his democratic bid suspended his campaign monday night. mike failed to turn a 2008 caucus win into 2016 success and has announced his in des moines iowa, i'm karen kafa. also this morning, there's a renewed push to get a stoplight cbs 4 dan bush tells us it was the scene of a crash which killed a young new father.

welcome back. the irs says more than half of taxpayers hire someone to prepare their taxes, but who really needs a pro. >> that's the question. cbs news business analyst jill is here to tell us when it makes sense to do it and which jill, good morning. >> let's talk about that. should we hire someone or should we not? >> well, you know, if you've got a complicated financial life,

for example, small business owners or someone who is self-employed. you may want someone who is familiar with schedule c, who can advice on the best type of retirement plan and who will let you know if you need to file a form 1099. there's a group of people, maybe you had a lot of investment activity or where you sold property or have to file a state tax return, you may want guidance. if you're one of the 5 million taxpayers subject to alternative minimum tax, i think a tax professional may be able to help you minimize the hit. the average cost of a professional income tax prepared to handle a typical return was $273. fees do vary by region and by the complexity of your return. >> if we think we can stand on our own two feet and brave this alone, what is the best software?

whose income are $62,000 or less with free tax prep software called free file. you can go to irs.gov and get that. if you don't qualify, you have three main chances. there's turbo tax, h and r blocks and tax act. i spoke to tax prepareers and they say that turbo tax is the best bet, even though it cost more. the reason is pretty clear. fewererrors so you may want to check that out. >> we appreciate that so much. let's take a look here. we have jill's irs website. now, let's look in western pennsylvania. this is the man of the hour. this groundhog. pecks tony phil. >> he did not see his shadow. last year he saw this shadow.

see an early spring. very scientific and very important. i'm sure we take this to heart. to us. here in colorado, it's snowing like crazy and looks like a snow globe. the groundhog didn't see his shadow, so we can expect an early spring. let's get to dave aguilar, do you concur? yet. i don't know about that. an earl y spring would be nice. we had 9 inches in westminster from paul romero, our weather watcher there. and he says overnight, he had 6 additional inches to get him to that 9. travel forecast, if you're going anywhere across the country, nations mid-section here, colorado actually, if you drew a line here, i'm going to circle this from colorado all the way up to minneapolis and chicago, this storm is going to effect that area. there's winter weather advisories and winter

they have cancelled a lot of flights. the other thing is it doesn't show up on the map well here, but from mid-tennessee all the way through florida, there's so that could slow you down just a little bit if you're traveling there. high today, joel, it's only 25. we have more snow to contend with. we'll outline we want this is morning. >> all it takes is one of these this i-70 and havana. you got a long line of cars all backed up. the semis. once the cars get stuck, they have to get going again. you have this huge roadways. here's the drive at dia. you can see the slowing with closures along i-70 from air park to the state line and rock bowie to the state line. tough conditions, you can see the volume we have already streaming

game. ten years is a long time to wait, but it was 100% worth the wait. >> the broncos are hosting their hotel. we'll see it at noon.,,

welcome back into the cbs 4 morning news. it's 5:30 on this morning. we have plenty of school closures to tell you about. long list into our news room. no academic classes at du. we have denver, aurora, littleton, boulder, jeff coast schools closed.

scroll at the bottom of our screen all morning long and check online at cbsdenver.com. thank you, mark. welcome to our team coverage this morning of this february snow storm. our shawn chitnis is going to watch our roads. morning. if have you to head slow. firstly, let's go over to david aguilar who is tracking the forecast. is there a way to measure how much snow we have gotten? >> out of dia, we've had 6.9 inches. anywhere from 6 to 15 inches of snow. it took a while to get here, but we finally arrive. all weekend, we told you it's going to take all day among and tuesday morning to arrive at that foot of snow. out there right now, we have a

chunk of colorado including denver and the eastern plains as well where it's snowing. watcher in littleton. look at there's the reading in dia. 6.9, but close to a foot in boulder. 15 and a half in clear creek canyon as you get into the foothills. it's a different story up there. snow still coming down, but it's start to go break up north of boulder and fort collins. we had a big -- many areas got an additional 6 inches of snow. here's how it plays out by the hour-by-hour. the intensity will slowdown. through the noon hour, we could have flurries here and there. we're not completely done with the snow. we may have another inch in the metro area, maybe one to two in the foothill locations as the system pulls away, and later this afternoon into tonight, it starts to break up. so i don't think we'll have much in the way of snow falling for the

morning, it's a different story. and for many of us, joel hillan, this could be the worst commutes we've had in some time, right. >> if you have to be on the roads this morning, it's a tough commute. if you don't have to be on the roads, stay home and enjoy our coverage of this storm because it's going to be dangerous out there. look at i-70 and havana. we have a crash along i-70. you have the cars that have to stop and the accordion effect as the cars have to get going. how do you allow plenty of space between you and the car in front of you when it looks like this. you can see the low visibility that settled across the denver, metro area. get to the tech center, there's light volume. you have to keep adequate space between you and the cars in front of you because you can't see the lines on the road. here's the denver metro area. here's the

you have a stall and you have people that's going to slide off the roadway across the denver metro area. they plowed so your neighborhood streets, your coldest acts, various areas aren't going to see the potential from the snow plows. getting out of your driveway and getting to where you need to go to the plow roads is going to be tough. there's quite a bit of snow especially the further west you go. look at folks making their way up that hill to get passed bulls there, out to 285 along c-470 and as you get passed alameda to i-70. it's a tough drive. it's tougher because two of the roads are closed. i-270 closed near nebraska and you have i-70 which is closed from air park out to the kansas state line this morning up into the high country. we have chain and

in place up over from c-470 to vail pass. if you're thinking about doing -- if you're about to get in your car, turn on koa news radio and 941 fm for traffic and cbs 4 weather together. mark, you get that every ten minutes on the tens. >> it's going to be a tough drive for anyone today. let's look at the conditions. >> shawn chitnis is here to give us conditions. have you seen plows this morning? >>reporter: well, it's interesting that you would mention that. we had maybe three or four plows come by, so they're out working the freeways. this is i-25. i can see the road now, but pry imarily snow because there's so much snow on ground. let's show you

few hours ago. a closer look at i-25. a challenging commute for folk who's might be in this area and snow falling throughout the morning as well as from last night and the wind blowing. pretty consistent conditions making for quite the challenge here in centennial and by i-25. we checked out the situation in aurora earlier this morning or late last night and that's where we saw a similar picture with a lot of snow on the ground and a lot of snow on the arterials and side streets. prepare to see more snow as you're turning onto a marj or street or getting onto the freeway because that's where we see snow piling up and cars are tripped up because they're not preparing for the extra snow. that's something to keep in mind as well. we're going to monitor the conditions here back out here live at i-25 as we see

willing to brave the conditions and cars going slower than they might normally, but making the commute this morning. live in centennial, shawn chitnis. >> shawn, thank you for braving the conditions. the roads are snow packed. when you drove in a couple of hours ago, they were snow packed. nancy pune is joining us. how are you? >> good, how are you? >> what would you say is your biggest challenge this morning? >> what i'm hearing is it's a combination of the snow. there's a lot of wind. so when you go ahead and you plow and then a few minutes later, the street. challenging morning with the snow and the wind and the cold. >> i know denver public works has been on full snow patrol since before this started yesterday, how are crews dealing

comes back? >> these people that we have out there are veterans. them. and they're good at what they do. they know what they do. they come in, they do their job. and they'll continue running over the routes and they'll continue running them up as many times as they can. 21 degrees in denver. you can get your cbs weather on the go with our free app. you can find dave's forecast and check out our interactive apps and become a reporter by sending your weather picks. it's free. download the cbs 4 weather app on i let's move to political news news. >> the 2016 presidential race turning to new hampshire. >> in iowa, we had surprising results. here's holly.

mains unresolved with clinton and sanders locked in a draw. both candidates address their candidates late last night as the numbers were being counted. >> i will keep standing up for you and fighting for you. >> we're going to create an economy that works for working families, not just the billionaire class. >> the virtual tie means both candidates will likely leave iowa with roughly the same number of delegates, but the results don't go well for sanders. >> this was a must win night for bernie and a tie is probably not going to cut it. he didn't turn out the quote on quote iowa -- >> voters handed victory to ted cruz over trump >> tonight is a victory for courageous conservatives across iowa. >> we finished second and i want to tell you something, i'm just honored.

io who pulled away with a third place -- all eyes on marco rubio who pulled away with a third place win. >> it's going to be christi. >> the presidential campaign shift to new hampshire which holds the first in the -- >> iowa was the end for two candidates. o'malley and -- they suspended their bids last night. it's time to look at the broncos and their first win for quarterback john el way. >> after an 8-year -- they went against the packers, but the broncos were determined to win their first world championship. despite battling a case of

157 yards and 3 scores. while el way had his career defining play, the famous helicopter. the broncos went onto their first superbowl prompting the you can't deal with something, but that's how some seem to be dealing americans work hard, and pay into it. so our next president needs a real plan to keep it strong. (elephant noise) (donkey noise) hey candidates,

see that? jill's gobbling up our bird's eye teriyaki broccoli. (mind-blowing sound) and look ben is going for more buffalo cauliflower. (mind-blowing sound) everybody's a veggie lover now. what do you think? (mind-blowing sound) mind blown. bird's eye flavor full.

well, we're now just five-days away from the

>> an exciting week. our mark haas has -- >>reporter: the media day moved into prime time on monday. broncos and panthers meeting with the media surrounded by fans to kickoff superbowl 50 week. earlier in the day, i had a chance to attend the cbs media day. a chance for us to meet with the broadcasters putting on the superbowl who are going to be broadcasting it. i wanted to ask their thoughts if this is manning last game. >> i would be shocked if he put himself through another year like this. i would expect that win or lose, this would be it for him and i don't think he has to be ashamed of anything. he'll do down as the greatest, if not the greatest quarterback who has played the game. >> there's nothing official from manning. but broadcasters are

>> the legacy that he's left on this game, it's the blueprint. it's the inspiration for all the young quarterbacks coming up and it should be because he's one of the greatest ever to do it. >> after 18 years in the nfl, it's setting up perfect for number 18 to go on top. >> winning is the greatest. nobody remembers who loses the superbowl. nobody cares. it's a sad thing, but that's the wa y it is. >> no one thinks it's a must win. >> i'm sure he would love to win another. there's denver fans that would love for him to win another. if he loses this game, does it diminish him in anyone's eyes, it shouldn't. it doesn't as far as i'm concerned and i think people tend to forget, you know, people say, he's lost two and he's won one. no, his teams did. it's not a one man game and people lose sight of that.

media today, but kubiak giving the team off today. we'll have more at noon. >> super media day brings out the reporters to talk to the players. >> yesterday is a special day. 14-years-od denton is a cancer survivor and his dream is to be a sports journalist. >> are you going to retire after this? do you have any idea? >> hey, you're sharp. you're sharp. you're well dress and you're smart and sharp. >> i don't know the answer to that. i have really tried to take it one week at a time with all that occurred season. i had injuries and unique things occur. i go one week at a time. not get too far ahead and not too far behind. i'm going to stick with that. i'll deal with that some time after the season. >> that works, all right. thank

>> nicely done austin. >> he has an mega swats smile and sharp questioning. he has a bright future. >> he sure does. >> dave aguilar has what we have this morning. we look like a snow globe outside. >> that's i-25 and arapahoe road. that area got 6 inches of snow including what fell yesterday. it's coming down out there. we're not done with this storm system yet and all weekend long, you watch us on the weekend, i hope, well, mark does. he's here. all weekend long, we told you it's going to take all damon monday-- it will take all day monday morning. there's 8 in confer and phil in frank town

he has to shovel today. here's the big low. it's turning in kansas. we have blizzard conditions in omaha to sections of -- it's snowing in the denver metro area. we're on the backside of that low. all the winds out of the north shooting against the palmer divide and back into the denver metro area. if you go into fort collins and greeley, it's start to go break up. those areas have been cancelled as far as the winter storm warning goes from denver eastward. we're going to be in the snow. this is the forecast through noon. we see snow across the eastern plains. i think we'll see another 1 to 2 inches of snow in denver and this afternoon, it tapers off to a few flurries and by tomorrow, we start to see things clear out. highs are not going to be all that high. 20s and teens across the state including denver.

25. a light snow and another inch of snow in the city. another one to two if you live close to -- keep that in mind. 29 should be the high tomorrow after a morning low of 6:00. in the morning, it's going to be cold with clearing skies and thursday, friday, and saturday, in the 30s, we've got one little cold shot coming in on friday that might deliver a few flurries and we get into a superbowl weekend coming up. joel hillan, you have a lot to talk about. >> clearly this car is not facing the proper direction on the road. we're going to have numerous calls of slideoffs that happen. florida state patrol reminding folks to stay in your car. do not get off your car. call them and they'll help you help. you can't assume they're going to be in control

place is inside. police there on the scene at i-25 and 50th of that slide off. we have another accident as you travel on i-70 and it's right near havana. it's causing major slowing. this is the average speeds you're going to see over the next quarter hour or so. this is going to dip into the single digits. a 13-minute drive to i-70. you get a few more cars on the roadway and that will double that drive time. you can see the lower visibility we have. be cautious of bridges and off ramps and the transitions between those. the conditions are going to vary. one thing is universal. there's a thin layer of ice. take a look across denver metro area. you can see this dark gray. that's the spots where you have the most snow accumulation out on the roadways and causing a tough drive.

to get up the hill along c-470. past alameda to i-70. we have the closure of i-76 as you go from rock bowie and i-70 to airport to the kansas state line. here's cbs 4 tech cam. a lot of people decided to tela commute or stay home. that's my advice if you're able to do that. our live team coverage continues, next.
