good morning, ginger. >> good morning to you. it will be torn tuesday. but before we get there up to 7 inches of snow falling in snoqualmie pass, up to 2 feet of snow, then the rockies down to the mexican border have high wind alerts. we're talking gusts up to 60 miles per hour, and more snow alerts all the way to wisconsin. this region where we see this warm front lift through tomorrow, mississippi, arkansas, parts of tennessee and louisiana that have not only damaging wind threats starting in the afternoon but tornadoes, they'll happen and they could be long tracked. when we say long track, that means they could be violent, on the ground sometimes for an hour or more and that's the type of tornado you don't survive if you're in a mobile home, t.j., or a vehicle. so we've got 36 hours, people can prepare now. let's head back to you. >> thank you so much, ginger, for that. we'll check in with you plenty. want to check in with gio benitez, our transportation correspondent is at laguardia airport. gio, we just heard about this dangerous threat of weather.

this weather is coming at a time when millions of americans are trying to get home. >> reporter: that's right, t.j. that rough weather causing some delays this weekend because take a look at this. on the roads, we saw traffic stalling in the northeast with millions making that return home. in the air, the weather causing hundreds of delays up and down the east coast, but despite that weather, and this is pretty shocking, a low number of cancellations. just a few dozens among the u.s. airlines as millions hit the skies on the same day together. that's a dramatic change from the travel chaos we saw over the summer. this thanksgiving saw almost as many travelers as 2019 right before the pandemic, an estimated 54.6 million this year in 2019 it was 55.3 million. so t.j., very, very close. >> and all that travel, all

these millions in the air as you just referenced, there was a scare in the air that travelers are not going to want to hear. >> reporter: that's right, and this was on a flight, a jetblue flight from new york to salt lake city, and this was a passenger who allegedly held a small blade to another passenger's throat, later charged with carrying a weapon on an aircraft and assault with a dangerous weapon. thankfully no one was hurt. this comes two weeks after a man boarded a plan with two box cutters. so t.j., many, many questions now for the tsa. >> good to hear nobody was injured there. gio, we thank you as always. whit? t.j. now to the so-called tripledemic threat and fears it could get worse following the holiday weekend. more than three-quarters of the nation's pediatric beds are now filled and urgent care centers are seeing a crush of patients. trevor ault is at a children's hospital right here in new york with more. trevor, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. officials here say they've already been facing high levels of patients in the emergency department and with covid we've seen repeatedly how holiday gatherings can accelerate the spread of sickness. we could now be seeing that happening on three separate fronts.

this morning, health officials fearing the holidays may worsen the tripledemic surge of flu, rsv and covid. some hospitals and urgent cares are already facing a crush of patients. >> our book-ahead slots absolutely fill up. >> reporter: data from hhs shows nationally pediatric bed occupancy remains the highest it's been in the last two years. 78% of beds are filled. in long island, ella rose was on oxygen with rsv for nearly a week. >> it was horrendous. i hope no parent has go through it. it was terrifying. >> reporter: and the rsv threat is playing out amidst an earlier and more severe start to the flu season. the hospitalization rate, the highest for this time in the season in more than a decade. some experts warn this may just be the beginning. >> we just had massive gatherings, the busiest travel days in years and a large amount of circulating viruses all over the country. >> reporter: this comes as new concerns that common flu medications like tamiflu are in

high demand. >> we're seeing shortages in some areas of supplies of common antibiotics like amoxicillin as well as tamiflu and some other medicines as well. >> reporter: johnson & johnson which makes brand name children's tylenol says there's been high demand but, quote, we're not experiencing an overall shortage. several senators are now calling for immediate action to try to resolve that shortage of oral amoxicillin. doctors are stressing you should call your pediatrician if your child is ill. e.r. visits are for the most serious adverse symptoms like shortness of breath. amy? >> trevor, thank you for that. overseas now and unrest sweeping across china as citizens rise up in mass protests against severe covid restrictions. some are now calling for china's president to step down. maggie rulli has the story. maggie, this is unprecedented. >> reporter: yeah, amy, exactly. these are on a nationwide scale that we haven't seen for decades and some now even calling for the chinese leader to step down.

this morning, the biggest wave of unrest to hit mainland china in decades is ripping across the country. fed up with the government's strict zero covid policies thousands have taken to the streets from shanghai to beijing, and at dozens of universities across the country. [ crowd chanting ] shouting we want democratic rule of law, we want freedom of speech. many holding up blank pieces of paper, the symbol of the growing movement designed to avoid arrests and call out censorship as they protest the lockdowns. and some in shanghai calling for the country's president xi jinping to step down. a rare and brazen act of public defiance against the communist government, not seen across china since the days of the protests in 1989. the protests triggered by a

deadly apartment building fire last week killing ten. many blaming the covid restrictions for the fire department's slow response time, something the chinese government denies. [ crowd chanting ] police facing off with protesters as state media reports the war against the pandemic must go on. this bbc reporter says he was beaten simply or covering the story. now that british journalist was arrested, but he has since been released and is back out there covering these protests. guys, it does appear that some changes are happening. overnight, a number of cities across china began easing some of their covid restrictions almost in realtime. some lifting lockdowns. others changing up their testing requirements perhaps in an attempt to defuse these protests. t.j.? >> maggie, thank you. staying overseas to the ware

is here. russia has been pummelling ukraine's key infrastructure including its power grid leaving utility crews scrambling to keep up. our marcus moore is in kyiv with the details. good morning to you, marcus. >> reporter: t.j., good morning. president zelenskyy is urging residents across the country and particularly here in kyiv to save as much power as they can. also, prepare for the possibility for another wave of missile strikes as russia targets the country's critical infrastructure in an effort to freeze the population here. winter is setting in and they've already begun implementing emergency blackouts. we were at one of the warming centers that have been set up here across the city in the event there are more massive blackouts. along the front line to the south ukraine is hoping to keep the momentum as they reclaim some of territory occupied by russia. meantime, it appears russia is digging in ahead of winter. ukrainians say they will not be broken. one man told me they will win this war and there will be no

forgiveness. whit? >> marcus, thanks to you. now to fallout this morning after donald trump's dinner at mar-a-lago with kanye west and a white supremacist. our chief washington correspondent jon karl has more on how trump is now responding. jon, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. even for donald trump, this was outrageous. he dined at mar-a-lago with kanye west who has been condemned -- widely condemned for a recent string of blatantly anti-semitic statements and as if that were not enough, kanye west brought along to the dinner, a white supremacist named nick fuentes. this is somebody who has been widely banned on social media for hate speech. the dinner happened just before thanksgiving and exactly one week after trump announced he was running for president again. this meeting has been widely condemned by the antidefamation league, by the white house, the man who served as the ambassador to israel under president trump said in a statement, quote, to my friend donald trump, you're

better than this. even a social visit from an anti-semite like kanye west and human scum like nick fuentes is unacceptable. as for trump, he's put out a series of statements saying it was kanye west who asked to have dinner with him to get advice and then he said, quote, we got along -- regarding the dinner, he said, we got along great. he expressed no anti-semitism and i appreciated all the nice things he said about me on tucker carlson. why wouldn't i agree to meet? also, i didn't know who nick fuentes was. he may not have known who nick fuentes was when he came to dinner, but he certainly does now. nothing that donald trump has said since condemns that, also amy, we've seen almost no comment from republican leaders, ronna mcdaniel who is the chair of the republican national committee put out a statement condemning neo naziism, white

supremacy and anti-semitism, but made no reference of donald trump or of his did henner gues. amy? >> jon karl, thank you. now the white house easing some oil sanctions on venezuela in an effort to support. cecilia vega has more on what this could mean for gas prices here at home. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: amy, good morning to you. this means right now that the u.s. oil base giant chevron can resume limited operations in venezuela since the u.s. imposed these sanctions as part of that crackdown on the maduro regime. now venezuela has the world's largest oil reserves, resume pumping and exporting oil as the national average here in the u.s. that is now $3.54 a gallon down from last month but still 15 cents higher than this time last year but given these oil prices, gas prices, the reduced global ukraine, il eyes on ov ar in

t e white offi here insist this won't impact oil prices because of the limid role for chevron on this one. officials are insisting this is really about restoring democracy to venezuela. the move to lift these sanctions comes after the government sat down with venezuela's opposition leaders and they're agreeing to work together for some spending on humanitarian needs. t.j., republicans are blasting the white house and president biden for this move saying the oil production rather than dealing with a strongman like nicolas maduro. t.j.? >> cecelia, thank you so much. now we want to thank some of you for taking a break from the world cup and watching us. u.s. of course is gearing up for tomorrow's must-win match against iran. will reeve, this is a case win or you're coming home, back home tmen's aleam s.

don'giagainst , eir worlcu t tea a stng swing oe, b th ea 1 aw well. so now iran, the pressure high enough. if the team wins, they're onto the knockout stage, but political tension magnifies this game. iranian players and some of their fans have been showing signs of support for human rights protesters back in iran, and in their own nod of support, u.s. soccer altered the flag of iran on a social media post. they took off the islamic emblem from the center of it. the federation initially saying they did that intentionally. u.s. soccer telling abc news that the players and coaches had no prior knowledge of that post, and that after internal discussions, u.s. soccer took it down, and now iran is calling for the u.s. to be expelled from the world cup. probably not going to happen before this massive game, guys. >> drama off the field.

there's so much. a draw will not do. they have to win this. >> they have to score goals. >> will, thank you. we turn now to cyber monday after a record start to the holiday shopping season. despite inflation and recession fears, a record $9.12 billion was spent online on black friday. becky worley joins us now with the hot sales happening as we speak and how to get tactical to save big. becky, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. yeah, it's the biggest online shopping day of the year. we have a live look at an amazon warehouse in new jersey that is pumping out pts,eauty products, in a time of high prices shopping tactically today is smart money management. for millions of americans this morning, it's ready, set, shop. adobe expecting cyber monday to generate $11.2 billion in spending. that's about 5% growth from 2021. some of the big drivers --

the investigation into the death of an american tourist, shanquella robinson. it happened in mexico, and an arrest warrant has been issued this morning. this morning there are new questions about how will that work across borders. matt rivers has more from mexico city. good morning, matt. >> reporter: shanquella robinson went to mexico looking for a fun birthday celebration, but officials say the 25-year-old american woman was killed by an acquaintance. now they want to prosecute that suspect right here in mexico. this morning, mexican authorities say they believe 25-year-old u.s. citizen shanquella robinson was killed by an acquaintance, another american woman, on vacation in los cabos. robinson was found dead at a luxury resort in late october, traveling with a group of friend whose actions immediately became suspicious. in one now viral video too violent to show robinson is seen being severely beaten. at least two people in the room watch and record the incident. in another one, someone films robinson taking a nap the day before she was killed.

a police report from the day she died said guests at the resort called for medical help, claiming she had "drunk a lot of alcohol." doctor said she was, quote, stable but dehydrated adding the guest refused to bring her to a hospital. the police report said she went into cardiac arrest and was declared dead at 6:00 p.m., but an autopsy obtained by abc news contradicted that report saying she was declared dead three hours earlier suffering from a severe spinal cord injury and a dislocated neck. >> they attacked her and there was nothing she could do but say no. >> reporter: mexican authorities saying the prime suspect in the case back in the united states. >> the fact that the person accused is an american citizen fundamentally changes all of the evaluation here. >> reporter: mexican prosecutors filing charges for femicide which means they believe she was killed, in part, because of her gender. mexico is asking the u.s. to extradite the suspect to face

charges in mexico. the department of justice will have to evaluate any evidence. >> if the u.s. authorities and potentially u.s. court are not convinced that the mexicans have a very strong case, then it's very unlikely that she would be extradited. >> reporter: u.s. prosecutors could choose to prosecute this case themselves, and the fbi is investigating. i spoke to one former u.s. diplomat based here in mexico who tells me it really is whether the mexican government will cooperate. will they turn over their case files and give the fbi the access they need to properly investigate? those questions remain open at this point. guys? >> such an alarming case. matt rivers, thank you. we turn now to more cyber monday and becky worley is back tracking major discounts on big tickets items happening all day online. becky, good morning once again. do shoppers have a top priority when it comes to cyber monday in

terms of the items they're buying today? >> reporter: whit, it's smart to have a focus. i think about cyber monday like this, one for you meaning gifts, one for me meaning big ticket purchases and splurges and one for house, and by that, i mean, stocking up on staples. let's start with gifts. specifically tech, the airpod pro on sale for $200. these will go up in price later this week i almost guarantee it. tvs switching over, two are great sets for the money and on sell the tcl 43-inch roku tv is $149 at target. 200 bucks off. it's not the most recent model, but i own this tv. it looks great. another top-rated model is the hisense, uh 8. it's a $500 savings, whit. >> that's the one for you. now the one for me. shoppers looking to splurge on themselves. what are the deals out there now?

to save. so target, 25% off of all of cosmetics and beauties. red card holders get an additional 5% back. amazon has a deal on home basics. if you spend at least 50 bucks, you get 25% off purchases. spend to save it's a strategy that's especially smart in these inflationary times. >> all right, becky, thank you so much. for all these deals and more use the qr code right there at the bottom of your screen or head to goodmorningamerica.com. t.j.? all right, we'll turn now to an exclusive first look at jennifer lopez's revealing new interview about dealing with heartbreak after her breakup with ben affleck nearly two decades ago. the breakup and the heartbreak we're hearing a new announcement about some new music. >> reporter: we are, t.j., good morning. she teased it the way only j.lo can. she deleted everything off her instagram and then she changed

her instagram, her tiktok, her facebook and twitter accounts to feature a black image. then she ended that black-out over the weekend to announce her new album. this is her first one in eight years, and that album touches on a lot including her relationship with ben affleck. ♪ >> reporter: this morning, international pop sensation jennifer lopez detailing her painful heartbreak years ago after calling off her wedding to former fiance ben affleck. >> it was so painful after. once we called off that wedding 20 years ago i was -- it was the biggest heartbreak of my life and i honestly felt i was going to die. ♪ >> sent me on a spiral for the next 18 years where i was just -- i couldn't get it right.

i couldn't get it right. >> reporter: lopez speaking with zane lowe, recounting the lasting effects of that past relationship. >> my way of surviving was working more and doing more, and hiding that side of myself. >> reporter: two decades later, the singer, dancer, and actress is done hiding, sharing new details about her rekindled romance, now calling affleck by a new title, husband. ♪ marry me, say yes ♪ >> true love does exist. some things do last forever, and that's real. >> reporter: after reconnecting in july of 2021 the co eloped in las vegas one year later. this august, they held another lavish wedding celebration for friends and family at affleck's georgia home. >> now -- >> now? >> 20 years later it does have a happy ending. >> it does. >> it has the most -- would not happen in hollywood ending.

>> reporter: a hollywood ending, but this might be the beginning of learning more about it. the last song on her album is called "greatest love story never told." t.j., if you love "love actually" you'll love this. >> zohreen, don't start. don't get in on this foolishness. >> zohreen, that was great. >> zohreen, thank you so much. let's go to ginger. don't you get in on this. >> i need to get into this. i got a volcano to talk about, the world's largest volcano that's active. it erupted for the first time since 1984. you see it there. this is from the big island of hawaii. it's

now to the highly anticipated "avatar" sequel 13 years in the making. fans around the world are counting down to "avatar: the way of water," set to be one of the biggest movies of the year and joining us now is one of the biggest stars, zoe saldana. great to have you on "gma." how did i do with your last name? >> you did fantastic.

it's either zoe saldana or zoe saldana. i'm a crossbreed. i'm a first generation but i was born and raised here in america, however people pronounce it. we're just a melting pot of so many cultures. i don't hold it against anybody. >> we appreciate that. we're asking for clarification because there was a big debate going on this morning. you haven't seen the movie yet, but you're seeing it tonight. >> i know. i'm so excited. i'm emotional. i'm all over the place. it's been something that's been in the making for 13 years since we released the first movie. throughout that time we always reach out to jim or jim would reach out to us letting us know where he was in terms of writing it, completing it and finally getting ready to go into pre-production. so to finally be here was a dream come true even for me because i was in it. >> you were in it. how long ago did you wrap shooting it?

>> 2018. >> you've been waiting that long to see this movie? >> so i have three little boys, every now and then, hey, jimbo, how are you doing? how's the shoot in new zealand? >> jimbo, i like that. >> you're the only actor who has had three movies that have made $2 billion or more. that's incredible. according to -- jimbo, i think is what we call him now -- he said this one needs to do the same. what is it like to have those kind of expectations because the first one is the biggest of all time? >> i'll let the leaders have those expectations. i rely on hope. i hope it's well received because it was certainly special to me to be apart of it and to have worked with the people that i have worked with, and to be aging with them and growing with them in this industry. the opportunities that it opened for me, but also the conversation it started even for somebody like me about the environment. the very first "avatar," i had never had those conversations with myself about being a little

more aware about climate change and the environment, and what we could do to be preventive and to, you know, lead into, like, an unfortunate future with our planet. and "avatar" was, like, a first in so many ways for me. so i'm hoping that it is well received because the story is special once again. it's about water, and obviously it's called "the way of water." but if there's one thing we know about jim, it's he has always had this affinity with the ocean, and if the ocean is 80% of our planet, that means we don't know 80% of this world that pandora is, and if pandora is an inspiration of our planet earth, then there's a lot more to discover. >> let me ask you about some of that water. we heard you were doing a lot of filming 30 feet under water and i understand you worked with breath-holding specialist and you can hold your breath for five minutes. >> in 2017 when we were rehearsing. >> that's unbelievable. >> i can't hold my breath.

i've been able to retain that information and practice those tools and teach my sons while they're learning to be fluid in the water. it was amazing. in theory as we were all going through it we were losing our minds about what this was going to be. we all kept egging each other on. we were, like, nobody's going to say no. nobody's going to turn back. and jim, there's one thing, jim will present the challenge but he presents the resources as well. he surrounds you with world-renowned people, and within five months of you taking this training, you're going to discover a side of you that you thought you would never, ever see about yourself. it's kind of rewarding, but it is scary. every day we would walk onto set and be, like, look at that tank and kind of go, i'm going to be all the way down there. >> it is scary. >> practice your breathing, zoe, and recalibrate. i'm, like, okay. >> let's take a look at you in action. >> he's targeting our family.

>> you can't ask this. the children everything they've known, the forest, this is our home. >> the children, he had them under his knife. >> my father gave me this bow as he lay dying and he said protect the people. >> this will protect the people. that kid knows everything. he knows our whole operation. >> wow, to think you get to watch the whole thing later today. >> oh, my god! . >> zoe saldana, thank you so much for being with us. it's a pleasure.
