good morning, america. brand-new details coming in at this hour on the vanished jumbo jet. the e-mailed clue from an oil rig worker who might have seen a burning plane in the sky. we learn the pilot's last words. as malaysian officials try to decipher a radar image off that coast. confusion rains in what is a truly a world-wide mystery. temperatures plunge from 90 degrees back to freezing cold as winter makes a fast return, blizzard conditions, cars spinning out in chicago. ginger tracking that developing snowstorm now headed for the northeast. breaking now in the trial of oscar pistorius, the evidence on display. from the bathroom door riddled with bullets to the cricket bat that he used to strike it open. the most crucial day so far for the prosecution. ♪ i got a feeling ah, remember that feeling. those awkward seconds right

before a first kiss. now caught on camera and going viral overnight. why 21 million people and counting are all clicking on the chemistry and what's really behind this video. and, good morning, america. boy, this malaysia flight mystery continues to deepen. brand new developments coming in right now just as we're coming on the air. this e-mail surfacing overnight from an oil rig worker off the coast of vietnam. he says he saw an object burning in the sky 10 to 15 seconds. and our partner in the bbc is reporting that vietnam is sending an aircraft into those waters to check it out. >> and to add to the confusion, malaysian officials at the press conference this morning trying to clarify earlier reports now saying that they were tracking a plane in a very different location, the waters west of malaysia. remember this yesterday.

picked up a radar signal but they are not sure it was this jet. >> so a lot to clear up five days after the crash. let's get right to the breaking details with abc's bob woodruff in kuala lumpur. where the press conference has just wrapped up. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning, george, from kuala lumpur. this is certainly widening now. we have 27,000 square miles being searched. that's in the east and the north and the west of malaysia. and there are now 12 countries participating in this. of course that's including the united states as well. all they really want do is find that plane. this morning, the search widening as malaysian officials say they last saw flight 370 at 2:15 a.m. in the straits of malacca off the west coast of malaysia, but the plane signal spotted was not emitting any kind of distress signal. >> i'd like to confirm that our immediate focus is to find the aircraft. unless we get the aircraft and the black box. >> reporter: overnight indian officials say malaysian authorities asked them to join

the search looking for wreckage near the andaman sea. and vietnamese officials told abc news that they've scaled back its efforts to a less intensive search this morning. also overnight, our partner at the bbc saying that vietnamese authorities received an e-mail from an oil rig worker who says he spotted a burning object off the coast of southeast vietnam. near where he works on this oil rig. abc news confirmed the sender of the e-mail, michael mckay, of new zealand works on that oil rig. vietnam viet meez officials confirm they searched but found nothing. malaysian authorities saying they have not ruled out the possibility that the flight carrying 239 passengers en route to beijing may have banked hard to the west over the gulf of thailand into the ma lacca straights, though they denied earlier reports they could confirm the turn around. all right, good night were some of the last words heard from the missing airline pilots as they

took off from kuala lumpur. what happened an hour later remains a mystery as officials admitted they are no closer to finding the wreckage. confusion and chaos. some say the investigation is being mishandled. abc's gloria riviera spoke with malaysia's air force chief on the phone. >> reporter: can you clarify for me why aviation authorities are not able to release radar data or even a time line at this time? >> no comment. >> reporter: now another possibility. last month the faa issued an airworthiness direct ive regarding boeing 777s in the u.s. reports of possible cracking of the fuselage skin could lead to rapid decompression or oxygen loss in the cabin causing loss of structural integrity of the airplane. experts say the same concerns would apply to flight 370 even though it was a slightly older model. now, some of those family members have told us they've been trying to call the cell phone of those loved ones in the plane and they said they heard them ring but the experts say that doesn't necessarily mean

those phones are really ringing and working. sometimes you just hear that. that's about all they're really getting information on right now. robin? >> okay, bob, thank you. new information about the pilots at the controls of that plane. investigators digging into their backgrounds. abc's brian ross joins us from washington with the latest on that end of the story. good morning, brian. >> reporter: good morning. u.s. authorities are told the home of the two pilots have now been searched by police looking for any clues that would suggest foul play. officials this morning say they are mystified by reports the plane continued to fly for an hour after its tracking transponder was turned off. it's a small rotary knob in the center console of the 777 cockpit easily turned on or off. >> it would certainly appear that either the flight crew or there's someone else in the cockpit that is making some decisions that don't really compute. >> hi, everyone.

>> reporter: the captain, 53-year-old zaharie ahmad shah was a pilot's pilot. >> this is a youtube video i made as a community service. >> reporter: seen here on his own youtube channel at the controls of a flight simulator. a 33-year veteran of the airline with more than 18,000 hours of flying. but his co-pilot, 27-year-old fariq abdul hamid, is much less experienced. and they're investigating troubling reports he was kind of an airborne playboy violating safety standards in the cockpit. according to an australian news report, these two women say they were invited by the co-pilot to ride with him on a flight in 2011 to kuala lumpur in the cockpit. >> at one stage they were pretty much turned around and talking to us and so engaged in conversation. he took my friend's hand and looking at her palm and said it's very creased, that means you're a creative person and commented on her nail polish.

>> reporter: as is the case in so many other aviation disasters, the recordings inside the cockpit may be the only way to answer the mystery of whether it was a bomb or a hijacking or pilot error that led to the disappearance of malaysia air flight 370. officials say they are confident the answer will be found some day. but not until the plane and its black box from the cockpit are finally located. george? >> lots more work to do. more from our aviation consultant stephen ganyard. steve, let's start out with this new e-mail coming in overnight. very specific and lots of detail here. it would be consistent with the original flight path of the plane. the vietnamese are investigating but there's reason to be skeptical of reports like this. >> there are, george. i mean at this point we have nothing else to go on so worth asking the vietnamese to send an aircraft out to the location where this gentleman thinks he

saw something. but in this e-mail, he said, look, i saw this airline at 35,000 feet. it was burning and stayed in one piece. that's seven miles away. you can't even see an airliner in the day that far away. i've investigated mishaps where airplanes have disappeared without a trace. people overtime think they see things and they offer things, 90% in a mishap investigation, the individual reports things coming from people who think they saw something prove absolutely unhelpful. it's going to depend on what we get out of the black boxes. >> malaysians doing back-tracking standing by the notion they did hear a radar ping in the straits of malacca, but they are now saying they're not sure it was this plane. >> this is true. we've had this contradictory comments from the malaysian government for a couple days now. it's getting very frustrating. it's really opened up the amount of area that we've had to search. the good thing that came out of the presser this morning was that the malaysians said they'll turn that radar data over to the ntsb and faa to let them look at it in a scientific way and tell

the world if they really think this radar data showing the airplane moving off to the west was real data. >> so bottom line, do you agree with what cia director john brennan said we can't rule anything out right now including terrorism? >> we can't. anything is on the table. but we're back to a search area that's the size of indiana. so, george, think of flying over indiana and saying i have to find a spot five to ten miles over indiana and i have no clue where it is and i have no idea where to search. >> that's a lot of area. okay, steve, thanks very much. >> frustrating to so many, especially for the families. now let's get to the wild changes in the weather. a roler coaster of temperatures as the winter blasts back. we go to ginger. kind of like a winter whiplash. >> imagine being in st. louis, 83 degrees yesterday, and this morning you wake up and it's snowing. that's what they're doing. big change in the last 12 hours. chicago, i-55, that spinout. the roads are just a wreck around chicago. i've been seeing tweets

everywhere, don't drive if you don't have to. as far as air travel goes, right there we're looking at another camera from detroit. so the snow extends all the way to toledo. cleveland right now are getting thunderstorms. they will transition into snow. and very windy behind it. when we're talking snow totals, chicago has already had 5 plus inches. some get a half foot from detroit to buffalo. when this moves into new england, it ramps up in the higher elevations you could see up to 2 feet in some places. and a warning around buffalo. severe weather potential with all this windy but severe violent storms from philly to north carolina. so much more to talk about in the nation's weather because i just can't get it all in. believe me, even out west we've got headlines. >> something for everyone. all right, ginger, thanks very much. all right, robin. a massive fire burning here in new york city. in east harlem this morning. that's in upper manhattan. 116th and park avenue, the scene. the fire appears to be the

result of an explosion. it has partially collapsed. the building in question and has forced authorities to suspend rail service in the area. the smoke is visible several miles away. the degree rained down on the streets below. we have no reports yet of any injuries. we will certainly be updating this throughout the morning here. there was a similar scene last night in san francisco, in this case, flames spread through a luxury apartment building that was under construction. you see that here. more than 150 firefighters battled the fire which caused part of the building to collapse. also sending debris falling on to the roof of a near by building. the cause of this fire remains under investigation. a major change in the american workplace that could result in millions taking home more overtime pay. president obama is expected to issue an executive order today that would change federal labor law to require businesses to pay overtime to more salary workers. right now employers don't have to pay overtime to workers who make more than $455 a week.

the president's order would raise that salary limit. no word by how much. the move is likely to anger business groups and republicans in congress who have also opposed a minimum wage increase. meantime, the president may have a record-low approval rating. and in a possible preview of november's midterm elections, republicans scored an upset win tuesday in a special election for congress in florida. finally some news this morning about a very close friend of this program. anne sweeney is the co-chair of disney media networks, the president of the disney abc television group and anne says she's ready for a new challenge after wrangling us for years so after 18 of those years she's off to pursue her dream of reconnecting with creative process and worked in television her whole life so she wants to go make and direct it. she said she's stepping down in january. all of us, of course, who know her wish her nothing but the best. she is certain to be a success at whatever she chooses to do. and finally some news about a close friend of this program. ann sweeney is the co-chair of disney media networks. the president of the disney abc

a congressional investigation and abc news has learned a federal probe into what it knew and when about its recent ignition switch recall. though neither gm nor the u.s. attorney has officially confirmed the probe. the potentially fatal flaw linked to at least 13 deaths in 31 crashes, among them this 2005 crash in maryland that killed 16-year-old amber marie rose. >> they had no apology to us. they didn't say anything. >> reporter: the problem, the ignition which could turn off unexpectedly shutting down the car's power and safety systems including the air bags. gm says a heavy key chain or even rough roads could cause it. last month gm announcing a recall of 1.6 million cars from model years 2003 to 2007 including the cobalt, solstice and ion. gm's new ceo mary barra says she's conducting an internal review. >> i do think that mary barra wants to make up for the

mistakes of the past, but she has got a lot to make up for. >> reporter: for "good morning america," rebecca jarvis, abc news, new york. >> thanks, rebecca for that. now good news for millions who suffer from migraines. the fda has approved the first medical device that can prevent migraine attacks. abc's medical contributor dr. jen ashton with more on that. this is such a big deal, jen. 36 million americans suffer from migraines. >> i'm one of them, george. if you think about migraines as a very complex disorder that involves blood vessels and nerves, here's the device called cefaly. this targets a nerve in the brain that is the major player in causing migraines. it stimulates that nerve and interrupts those signals. meant to be worn 20 minutes every day. a very, very small study did find it did reduce the number of migraines per month but unfortunately not the severity. so not going to be a cure but possibly a big help.

>> what about side effects and cost? >> so, ironically, the most common side effect was a mild headache after the treatment session. some mild sleepiness during the session and as of yesterday when they approved the device, in canada it was selling for about $250. we expect it to be similar but hopefully offset some of the cost of the many medications that people with migraines. >> there's so much out there. this could be such a boon because of the so few side effects. >> yep. seeing more technology, hopefully fewer drugs. something to keep an eye on. >> all right. now to one family's desperate plea to save their son taking their fight to social media and getting results. 7-year-old josh hardy beat cancer more than once and now a trial medication may help him fight off a deadly infection. abc's steve osunsami has his story. >> reporter: this morning prayers answered for amy and todd hardy. after weeks of public outcry, a north carolina drug company is changing its mind and sending the family an experimental drug

that could save their son. the hardys turned to facebook rallying troops to save josh convincing tens of thousands of americans to lobby the drugmaker and even the white house for compassion. >> the one thing i want to share with america is thank you so much for the love and support. >> reporter: 7-year-old josh hardy beat cancer and then needed a bone marrow transplant. that transplant compromised his immune system. he's now losing a battle with a virus that threatens his breathing and could ultimately end his life. >> none of us can fight as hard as he has. >> reporter: the drug they so desperately need is called brincidofovir. fights the virus and the company for years that's developing it gave it away. long before it was ready for patients who begged and pleaded but the government assistance ran out in 2012. since then they've been forced to spend every resource trying to get the drug fda approved

which means refusing hundreds of requests each year. >> from the family's point of view and little josh, they need the drug and want the drug and don't want to hear about anything else. >> reporter: overnight the makers of the drug said they reached an agreement with the fda to begin a 20-patient pilot trial today with josh hardy as the first patient enrolled. the medicine is expected to reach josh within the next 48 hours. for "good morning america," steve osunsami, abc news, atlanta. >> wow. and, again, social media, i don't know, when you log on and twitter and everybody was talking about it, not just josh but the other patients who will get that life-saving drugs. >> all good thoughts. another check of the weather and it's all still bitter, bitter cold. >> the numbers here, there's wind advisories from san antonio, texas, up to philadelphia. so you put the cold on and you're going to feel a windchill. let me show you as these numbers tick. find your place and go to tomorrow morning. what it's going to feel like in new york city, 7. it'll feel like 12 below in buffalo. burlington, 13 below.

now, at issue this morning, his credibility. did he lie about the way he used a cricket bat like this to batter down the door. this morning, with the repeated hacks of a krakt bat, the prosecution tried to pound holes in oscar pistorius' version of events the night he's accused of murdering his model girlfriend reeva steenkamp. that valentine's day he fired four bullets through the door which the prosecution dramatically presented in the courtroom. in his bail hearing pistorius stated when he realized it was his lover, not intruders locked inside this bathroom, he battered it down with this bat. >> my dadlady, if you pmit me - >> reporter: in court a forensics expert lumbered over the door. he said the actual one he used and struck the door. >> 1.5 -- >> reporter: he testified those swings could only have come from swung swinging from a lower position. >> the marks on the door is

actually consistent with him not having his legs on and i suspect it must be similar to the height that he was when he fired the shots. >> reporter: pistorius who claimed he had put on his legs to batter down the door. this time with the expert on his knees. feet up. >> i lost my balance, my lady. >> could you hit the door with the bat? >> no, i don't know. >> reporter: the trial has done little to dim his star power here. schoolgirls skill squeal when they see him in cross-examination the defense spent more than an hour talking about the trajectory. did he hunch his shoulders when he swung and discovered key pieces of evidence of that door went missing insinuating that the police bungled part of the investigation. expect that to shall a running theme throughout this trial. >> okay, matt. thank you.

abc's chief legal affairs anchor dan abrams here with more. getting into the forensic testimony, dig into that? they want to show he's lying. they want to show oscar pistorius was not telling the truth at his bail hearing. remember, his account was he's in the bathroom. he thinks it's an intruder. he fires the weapon. then runs without his prosthetics on and runs back into the bedroom screaming for help. puts his prosthetics back on. runs back into the bathroom with the prosthetics on. why this expert becomes so important is undermining that and saying, no, wait, based on the angle we see, he believes that the bat was swung from a much lower level and could show pistorius is lying. >> we heard at the end of matt's reports there are claims the evidence wasn't handled properly. >> that will be consistent through the case. you'll see the defense time and

again challenging the way the authorities did everything in this case and certainly maintaining the evidence is going to be a crucial piece because they want to say, the experts are wrong. >> how about this witness who said he had witnessed pistorius recklessly firing a gun and this witness admitted he had been following the trial. >> so this is a friend of both riva and oscar pistorius who said he was there twice when oscar pistorius fired off a weapon. but there was sort of a surprising moment in court. the defense attorneys cross-examining him about something and says, well, i wasn't wearing my sweatpants, my track pants and the guy says, i wasn't asking about your track pants. where did that come from? a aha. someone asked about it previously in the case. they realized he had been following coverage of the case even though he's not supposed to be following coverage of the case. a point for the defense. >> this keeps going and going. again, a judge is hearing this, not a jury. >> absolutely and that does change everything. >> all right, dan, thank you.

we turn to that megarobbery at america's biggest megachurch. someone cracked open the safe at joel osteen's church making off with $600,000 in donations and ryan owens has all the details. >> reporter: the huge heist is a hollywood staple. in "oceans 11" clooney and the guys rip off casinos. in "the town" they target banks. >> let's go. >> reporter: but a church, a holy heist on the sabbath, come on. >> it's awful to hear someone would actually do that to a church. >> reporter: police say someone stole that thou shalt commandment big time ripping off $600,000, a big jackpot from the ultimate church, lakewood in houston. >> god puts people in our path so we can brighten their death.

>> reporter: the church is home to joel osteen. 40,000 attend every week, people from more than 140 countries watch every week and houston police say they stole $400,000 in checks and $200,000 in cold hard cash gathered in the complexion plate. the haul of a single weekend lifted after being put in the safe right after sunday's services. was it an inside job. church employees whoop der. >> someone would have had to observe for awhile. someone has paid attention. >> reporter: some wrote their credit card numbers on envelopes placed in the collection plates so this morning joel osteen is warning members to watch their accounts. as for the megachurch it will be fine. all that money is insured which might make that fyorgiveness thing a tad easier. >> can you say an amen today. >> reporter: for abc news, ryan
