we'll get most of the snow today and en fairly quickly. the timing as we look at the winter advisories and also the winter storm warnings. it'll end from west to easas maybe about noontime from philly to new yororand then 3:00, 4:00, 5:00 in boston where you could see 4 to 8, maybe 10 inches of snow there. that's where we're going to see the heaviest amount. low visibility too o d delays at the airports. more about this storm later in the program. amy, george, back to you in come on in. to the race to the white house, "your voice, your vote." hillary clinton and bernie sanders face offend one-on-one for the first time last night, lots of tense moments inheir final debate before the new hampshire primary. with the latest poll showing a big 15-point lead for sanders. abc's cecilia vega up in durham, new hampshire, with all the latest. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: hey, george, good morning to you. we have not seen a debate like this before. some of the most heated exchanges in this race so far, e jab after the next last night. hillary clinton, as you said, down in those polls and she came out swinging. they came to fight. >> enough is enough. if you've got something to say,

>> r rorter: the final debebe before they go head-to-head in the nation's first primary and overnight hillary clinton and bernie sanders went pound for pound. >> she has the entire establishment or almost the entire eststlishment behind her.r. >> i've got to just jump in here because honestly senator sanders is the only person who i think would characterize me, a woman running to be the first woman president, as exemplifying the establishment. >> reporter: clinton attacking sandererfor suggesting that she is too close to wall street. >> you will not find that i ever changed a view or a vote because of any donation that i ever received. i think it's time to end the very artful smear that you and your campaign have been carrying out in recent weeks and let's talk about the issues. let's s lk about the issues s at divide us. >> reporter: in this fight for

war. >> we differed on the war in iraq, which created barbaric organizations like isis, not only did i vote against that war i helped lead the opposition. >> look, we did differ. a vote in 2002 is not a plan to defeat isis. >> reporter: just about the only thing they didn't argue about, those e-mails. >> there's a proross under way, i will not politicize it. >> before those e-mails it was benghazi, i have absolutely no concerns about it whatsoever. >> reporter: so many audible gasps in that hall last night. now each side was alsosked if they would choose one another as a vice presidential pick if they were elected. shockingly probably nono shockingly they would not bite on that one. hillary clinton did say, though, that if she does win her very first call to bernie sanders and she said she would reach out on

>> interesting, indede. cecilia, thanks so much. the countdown is on to the republican debate just one day away right here on abc and the candidates are teaming up to take on each other. the latest polls showing trump in the lead in new hampshire, but marco rubio gaining momentum. abc's jon karl is in manchester with the latest on all of that. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, amy. after his secondndlace finish in iowa, donald trump is taking nothing for granted here in new hampshire where he has a commanding lead and is fighting hard to keep it. >> this is really crunch time. >> reporter: with five events across new hampshire it was cross new hampshire it was trump's busiest day yet in the granite state. my colleague tom llamas caught up with him in portsmouth. >> i'm only worried about one thing, new hampshire. >> reporter: it has turned into a game of survivor forming alliances as they fight to the finish. trump is teaming up with ben carson to slam ted cruz over hisis campaign's misleading claim that

drop out after iowa. abc news obtained voice mails left by the cruz campaign on the night of the iowa caucus. >> please inform any carson caucusgoers to this news and urge them to caucus for ted instead. >> reporter: apologized to carson but denies any wrongdoing. >> when you win in the state of iowa your opponents wantnto tear you downwn >> reporter: the latest polls in new hampshire show rubio rising. abc news got an exclusive behind-the-scenes look with rubio on the campaign trail where his crowds are growing by the day. >> we wish you the best. >> thank you. i'll be back. >> that's just the overflow. >> just the overflow. >> they couldn fit them all in. >> ty couldn't get them all in, no. got to get bigger rooms. >> reporter: on his campaign bus rubio defended his record. what about all these governors we have running, far more executive experience and look at you and say you're a freshman north. nator. >> they y n't have more foreign policy experience. that's the most important job of the president. >> do you think donald trump is ready to be president?

is the same as being a real estate developer and on national security, he hasn't shown to date a deep level of depth upon those issues. reporter: today for the most part the candidates are prepping for tomorrow night's debate which will happen right here, and coming so close to the new hampshire primary. may be the highest stakes debate yet. amy. >> oh, yes, jojokarl, we cannot wait. someone else counting the days, martha raddatz, co-anchoring the debate with david muir. the excitement is building with just hours to . >> the excitement is building. it's great to be back at st. anselm college, where we were with the democrats in december and all those republics on stage, everybody looking for momentum and there is one thing that i caca absolutely guarantee, amy, there will be heated exchanges, everybody, everybody wants to survive this debate and move forward, but it may be the last chance for some. amy. >> all rigig, martha, and that

tomorrow, moderated by martha raddatz and "world news tonight" anchor david muir that starts at 8:00 p.m., 7:00 central right here on abc. george. . >> thanks, amy. . here nowowith a woman who knows something about debate, megyn kelly, anchor of "the kelly file" on fox news. welcome to "gma." you saw martha there. any advice for her? stand tall. stay tough and have your facts at the ready. she doesn't needed a vice from me, however. >> of course, you famously tangled with donald trump back in august and he h h some tough things to say about you after some tough questions, called you a lightweight, unprofessional. tried to get you taken off the second debate and i was just wondering what that was like for you. reporters aren't used to being the story. >> t tt was highly pleasant. i enjoyed thatat no, it was bizarre because i became the story. he was so very focused on me that i became the story and, you know, you never want to be the story when you're a news person. you want to be covering the story so it was like an alice through the looking glass experience. >> any regrets at all? anything you could have done

i still think it was a great question. i stand by every q qstion i asked him and he was not the only one who had tough questions. he was the only one, however, who complained. >> it comes with the territory but i was surprised to see hillary clinton speaking out talking about you yesterday in "people" magazine and says the internet hasasecome a refuge for vile commentary, some reserved just for women. do you think that's right? >> yes, i do. that's the problem w wh, you know, language like bimbo and so on because it gins up other comments along those lines which is diminishing to not just the woman being attacked but women in general so hopefully we can elevate the level of debate. >> well, we'll have that tomorrow night on abc right here. i'm wondering what you make of the race. of course, you've talked to just about all the candidates on "the kelly file." what we see coming out of iowa marco rubio moving up. >> and now he's got a big target on his back and all these other sort of establishment leaning candidates deny theyeye coordinating but clearly they

emerged from iowa as the guy at the top of it. this is it. new hampshire is their last-ditch effort realistically. they're under pressure from their donor, jeb bush and others -- >> jeb bush made a call to chris christie. >> they deny they're coordinating but the facts seem pretty obvious. they're gunning for rubio. >> only one of those four is likely to make it out of new hampshire. >> right now it's obviously trump, cruz and somebody else who is going to be gunning for those two and the question out of iowa was who would it be? you know, jeb's poll numbers weren't very good. wasn't expected to do well in iowa but neither was rubio and suddenly he comes with this third place finish that's almost a second place finish and he's got the momentum and these other guys perceive accurately t tt he's a threat. 's the boy in the bubble. whatever christie said about him he's the one. >> they are going to be gunning for him. you have another debate on march 3rd coming out of tuesday. w many candidates do you think are left by then. >> that's a good question. the bigger question in my mind whether donald trump will be at that one.

he hasn't committed but he will show up at that one which is great because brett, chris and i will be moderating it and we will move our questions from the last debate over to this debate. hope i get a chaps -- chance to ask them. >> can you share one? >> oh, god, no. you have to tune in march 3rd. >> meanwhile, we did see last night pretty feisty debate between bernie sanders and hillary clinton. looks like he's going to take new hampshire. still has a a etty big lead right there. that could be a long slog. >> that's right. what do you think? you used to be in politics. new hampshire, how important is new hampshire do you think on the democratic and republican side because, you know, the people who know what they're talking about sait's less important on the dem side. >> because bernie sanders is from vermont. >> he'll get it. >> a lot are expecting him to win. he were upset there i think that would be game over. >> it seems to me like some sort of mirage. if you look at clinton's long haul she's the favorite in every state after new hampshire and so it almost feels like a bit of media magic people are b blding this up into something.

sanders he has little chance in the remaining stat so it's fun to watch and speculate aut. now on the gop side, it's a real ce. d i think there's gegeine mystery about who is going to get that nomination right now in no one knows right now. thanks for coming on. megyn kelly. >> thanks for having me. >> over to amy. a big headline on zika. concerns about that virus growing right here in the u.s. the governor of florida now expanding that state of emergency to five counties and there are now more than 50 cases of the virus%across 13 states and washington, d.c. abc's linzie janisisas the latestst >> reporter: this morning florida preparing for the worst, declaring a public health emergency in five counties, there are now 12 travel-relalad cases of zika reported throughout the state. governor rick scott calling on the cdc to provide at least 1,000 zika antibody test kits r pregnant women to see if they contracted the virus in the past and thousands more kits to

back live here from san francisco and roger goodell has been the commissioner of the nfl for the last ten years andnder his watch, the league has experienced ununecedented success and also facing major criticism, as you know.

i had a chance to sit down with him during the sport's biggest wewe. when you see the number of concussions that are rising, you had more this year than last year, is there anything more that the league can do? >> the number of concussions went up this year and they're going to go up and they're going go down in any given season but screenings went up by 108% and also we saw more self-reporting from the players and teammates. at's what i call theheulture changege it used to be e you know there was, well, it's just a ding. those days are long gone. and that's a positive thing for our game. >> i don't know if yououad a chanan yet to see the movie "concussion." the betrayal of the nfl and of you in particular doesn't shed a good light othe league. how do you get past that perception that people have that the league hasn't been at the forefront, that you have not addressed this truruissue that pepele are talking about with

>> well, robin, with facts. i think when you look at what we've done over the last ten years we've had 40 different rule changes that are all designed on making the g ge safer. that didn't start the e st 12 months, that started ten years ago and we've invested in equipment anges. we're seeing safety changes to the turf which i think will help on impacts including head impacts on the turf so all of these things are going to take hold and they take time. and they take time. >> kenny stabler, , learned of his death this week and it was determined that he had a severe case of cte. is there anything in hindsight thatou look back and wish the league had known more. >> if i had known that we could have made more changes but the league has a history of evolving thgame and we're leading the way. pioneering research and over $100 million in research that is going not just to make football safer, this is going to make all

and quite frankly will probably have an impact on brain disease in general? if you had a son, would you want him to play football? >> i would not only want him to play football, i will certainly encourage him to do it and i would let him do it. i think there are tremendous values in playing the game of football. there's risk involved with anything in life but what we need to do is make sure we show people how to get the most out of playing sports and do it safely. >> any disciplinary y cisions that you have made to this point that you wish you could do over again? >> oh, sure, when our policies haven't met the types of standards that we think should be upheld, we acknowledge that and in the domestic violence and sexual assault area, we changed that, we made changes to our licy a year ago december and had ininhis past 12-month cycle we had the lowest amount of arrests in the history of the nfl. >> how do you respond to those players who feel you have too much power? do you have too much power? >> i don't'tnow what they mean by power.

bargained on it. that's been in place for decades, the commissioner has had authority to protect the shield, to protect the integrity of the game and do what's in the best intntest of the game overall. >> quite an experirice today with the women's summit. that was something new. >> what we've seen is that there are young kids that aren't having the opportunity to play and particularly young girls. and so we wanted to be able to focus on that in the women's summit today to figure out how we can bld more programs to allow more girls to participate ananget those skills so that they can become leaders in society. whatever careers they may choose. >> this as kathryn smith was named the first full time female coach h r the buffalo bills s st last m mth. also making headlines, the rooney rule in effect for women. what do you hope to accomplish with that? >> well, the rooney rule was established probably 15 years

though. >> ali, ali, please, pictures. >> i have that to look forward to. >> jesse in san francisco, thank you, linsey. >> thanks, george. and i'm standing here right now with three people infinitely more talented than i am. we've got j.j. watt from the houston texans, drew brees from the new orleans saints and marlo mosley, our kid correspondent who's been doing an unbelievable job all week. we'll break down the super bowl and get into it. carolina/denver, one of the big story lines we keep talking about are the quarterbacks. cam newton from carolina, talented, a little flamboyant and, of course, peyton manning, of the denver broncos, kind of the vet playing in his fourth super bowl. i'm going to ask you first, j.j., aa defensive player, no one has been able to do it this year. how do you stop cam newton? >> that's the million dollar question. i think wade phillips and his guys have a tough task on their hands obviously but having played for wade and seeing the guys he has on his defense, von miller, akeib

you're not going to stop him but find a way to minimize his impact. >> you played against peyton manning in a super bowl a couple years ago and everyone is talking this year about how he doesn't have the same arm strength, kind of falling off but what have you seen from him especially in the playoffs? >> i think the last three weeks have really impressed me. denver had a great team throughout the season and i felt like their defense played phenomenal throughout the season but they seemed to even have a little more juice once he came back into t t lineup midwawathrough the last game and the run they've made through the playoffs. he's playing extremely well, the run game looks great and then obviously their defense is stout. >> j.j., one of the cool things about this super bowl, you gogothe number one offenen, carolina, against the number one defense from denver. so i'm going to ask you the question. in games like the super bowl what wins championships, offense or defense? what are you going to say? >ell, i happen to defef to drew because he has won a super bowl so having drew brees having won a super bowl of course he would say offense but i think in this game there's two incredible defenses.

defense but carolina's defense is no slouch either with luke kuechly and josh norman. for me as a defensive player it will be a lot of fun to watch that battle. >> drew, you won super bowl xliv. ke us inside the locker room. how do you handle all the hype surround the game because we're talking about it nonstop. >> that's the biggest challenge because it's not -- as much as you tell yourself it's just anothehegame it's not. everything from the pregame festivities to the 45-minute halfme, you have to find a way to channel your energy and emotions in and around all of that stuff. eliminate distractions and just get down to the game when it's time but i think denver's experience from two years ago is really going to serve them well and i think the team that's able to come out the most calm at the beginning of this game gets a jump and comfort level sets in. i think carolina is the most complete team in football right now, offense and defense, so i think you match those two things up and it's going to be -- >> we have to ask the real insider. i got to ll you, guys, she's been at it alllleek long interviewing cam newton and peyton manning and everybody all week and so you've been the superstar.

ask the tough ones. is there a question you've got for these two guys? >> what's yoyo prediction for the super bowl? >> put you on the spot right away. i know. >> you do ask the tough questions. you know, i honestly don't know how the game is going to go but having played for gary kubiak and wade phillips and knowing the type of guys they are, i do hope they get a championship undererheir belts because they deserve it. i pull for them. >> drew, what do you think? >> i have friends on both sides. i think once you -- you know, as you're sitting back, you're like, man, i'd love to see that guy get a ring, i'd love to see that guy get a ring, i feel like -- i feel like carolina would win eight out of ten. >> this could be one of the two you're saying. >> is this the one denver is able to pull out because the last three weeks have been different. you can feel it. >> lahr low, i'm really going to decide with you on this one. you've dissected this game top to bottom. who are you picking and why? >> the panthers because like j.j. said, they're both dynamic

as the defense. they both click together and i think that the defense can stop the broncos' offense with peyton manning and they can do the same on offense. >> do you hear that? i'm going to vegas. she said panthers. i'm going to vegas right now. nice job, everybody. we're having a blast in san francisco. let's send it back to you guys in new york. >> we're just going to hire marlo. >> she's great. >> come on. >> i love how she gives a direct answer, exactly what she thinks. >> she knows what she's talking about. >> t ty're dynamic. i have no idea what you're talking about but you sound very smart. >> xs and os soon. >> time now for our "10 dates in 10 states" daily update. abc producer erica scott went one-on-one with the ceo of tinder, the wildly successful dating app matching 26 million people every day and she also went on date number three. this time it was literally a roller-coaster ride. take a look.
