we're learning the president's lawyers found a second batch at a location the president used as a private citizen. chief justice correspondent pierre thomas has the latest. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: george, good morning. after that first batch of classified documents was discovered at biden's office at a washington think tank last november, his aides decided they better look at other places he worked after leaving the obama administration to make sure nothing else was out there. we now know that sometime after that initial discovery of top secret documents, those aides found another set of classified papers at another location. while we don't yet know the exact nature of those documents, the optics are bad. and to be clear, those classified documents were not where they were supposed to be for nearly six years. such documents are supposed to be kept under very strict guidelines set forth by the office of national intelligence. >> pierre, what do we know about the time line of the review? >> reporter: george, the preliminary investigation, which is being overseen by the u.s. attorney for chicago john lausch, a trump appointee, is nearing its final stages. the ag has been briefed and may

be in a position to decide whether to launch a full-scale investigation or appoint a special counsel in the future. the fact that there was a second batch of documents discovered may have slowed a final resolution. just like that first batch, the fbi has to sort out who was responsible for removing them and to figure out if biden was aware and played any role. there's a sense of urgency and i get the sense this ag is not going to allow this to linger. george? >> i bet he does not. pierre, thanks very much. michael? now to the demand for answers after the air travel meltdown. more than 10,000 flights were delayed or canceled after maintenance errors caused an faa computer system failure that grounded all flights across the country for hours. transportation correspondent gio benitez is at laguardia airport with more. good morning, gio. >> reporter: hey, michael, good morning to you. yeah, this was a failure like we've never seen before. and this morning right here we're learning what may have led to it and it appears to be human error.

this morning, the faa saying the catastrophic computer outage that led to an aviation meltdown in america was caused by a damaged database file. a senior official telling abc news that file appears to have been a single engineer's mistake during routine maintenance of the critical faa computer system. the engineer reportedly replaced one file with another, not realizing what he had done even after chaos ensued and flights were canceled and delayed from coast to coast. >> when there's a problem with a government system, we're going to own it. we're going to find it and fix it. >> reporter: it took all day for airlines to get planes back in the air. about 9,000 delays, more than a thousand cancellations. >> a lot of frustration. a lot of confusion. >> this is something out of the control of the airlines right now. >> reporter: lou's flight from orlando to los angeles already started boarding when suddenly everyone was forced off. >> everybody deplaned very quickly, very orderly. >> reporter: the notice to air

missions computer system or notam delivers critical safety information to pilots before taking off. to fix the issue the faa ordering the nation's first national ground stop since 9/11. >> we just can't fly without that system. >> reporter: experts have long said the system is outdated. a source telling us a newer system would have caught that bad file. we know that the meltdown with southwest airlines just a few weeks ago was also blamed on outdated systems. so without a doubt, robin, the calls for a new faa computer system, those calls are only growing. >> without a doubt as you said, gio. okay. thanks so much. now to the new storm on the move across the country as hard-hit california recovers. matt rivers is in douglas county, nevada, where the snow is piling up. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning, robin. finally here in california a brief lull in the series of brutal storms that have buffeted the state of california for weeks.

people are trying to take advantage and clean up in california. in the mountains that means plowing snow. you can see giant snow piles behind me as parts of the sierra nevada mountains have received more than two and a half amount of snow they usually have at this point. landslide risks remain and we know the search is ongoing for missing 5-year-old boy kyle doan swept away by floodwaters monday. the national guard sending dozens of members to help in that search. this lull in the series of storms not going to last, unfortunately, however, moving into the weekend into early next week, we will see more storms move into the state of california. that means more inches of rain, robin. here in the mountains, more feet of snow. >> oh, all right, matt. thank you. we bring in ginger with more on the track and the timing of that new storm. good morning, ginger. >> good morning to you, robin. number seven on top of us now.

number eight coming. but who's counting? everbody is counting because we want to see when this ends but this next one for saturday, less than 36 hours away, that's going to be big. it is going to just bludgeon everyone there from redding down to los angeles with heavy rains and, again, feet of snow. talking 60 to 80 inches in te sierra. now some of the storms have made their way over the rockies. one will develop severe storms today from chattanooga down to southern alabama and georgia needs to watch for tornadoes, but also damaging wind and hail especially atlanta, birmingham, montgomery. this will be rain as it moves up into the northeast and a wraparound snow. so there are a couple of winter weather advisories in northern new england. the answer to when this ends looks like by january 20th the pattern starts to shift so we will keep counting until then. >> okay, ginger, thanks very much. now to the idaho college murders. the suspect due in court this morning. a judge sealed the search warrant for his apartment after prosecutors agreed it could jeopardize the case and put the public at risk. mola lenghi is in moscow, idaho, with the latest. good morning.

>> reporter: good morning, george. kohberger scheduled to be in court in just a few hours facing those four charges, those four murder counts. the 28-year-old ph.d. student is being held at the county jail without bail. he was arrested on december 30th at his parents' pennsylvania home where police collected his father's dna from trash outside matching that to dna they say they found on a knife sheath at the crime scene where the four students were killed november 13th. according to a police affidavit, one of the surviving roommates claiming she was awake at the time of the murders, telling police she saw the intruder in the home. george? >> and, mola, what do we know about why the judge sealed the search warrant? >> reporter: that's right, he has sealed that search warrant for kohberger's pullman, washington, apartment, pullman, washington, nearby where he is a student, saying that search warrant unsealing could jeopardize the investigation and could also jeopardize public safety. now, we should note that the family of victim kaylee

goncalves has vowed to have someone in court every time that kohberger appears saying they understand how difficult that might be for their family, but they're also trying to make this as uncomfortable as possible for kohberger. now, this morning's hearing is a status hearing, meaning it'll focus primarily on scheduling, hearings and future trial dates. kohberger may have the opportunity to waive his right to a speedy trial, essentially giving him more time before he ultimately has to plea at a preliminary hearing. michael? > tn latest on the war in ukraine. vladimir putin has replaced his military chief in charge as the battle for the east intensifies. our chief national correspondent matt gutman is there for us in the region. good morning, matt. >> reporter: hey, good morning, michael. the russian defense ministry citing the expansion of the scale of tasks for the move and it comes as russia and ukraine are going toe to toe, slugging it out in the towns of soledar

and bakhmut in a battle president zelenskyy of ukraine has called the most ferocious of the war so far. this morning, in a snap move, vladimir putin replacing russia's top general in ukraine. with a battle for a pair of key twns in ukraine's east becoming the bloodiest of the war so far, russian president putin showing his frustration, demoting his top commander general sergey surovikin, known as the butcher for his brutality in replacing him with valery gerasimov. after months of setbacks on the battlefield on wednesday russia claiming to have taken the town of soledar. but ukraine counters the bitter fighting there is ongoing. this image showing before and after pictures of the town of soledar. the craters, those high-rise apartment buildings turned to burnt out husks. here russian soldiers can be seen coming under withering ukrainian gunfire in soledar. explosions later engulfing the

russian position. soledar is a crucial prize for the russians who hope to take it as part of their effort to overrun ukrainian positions in bakhmut just a few miles south. and this morning, russia announcing that the 300,000 troops it mobilized in october are now being sent to the front lines and with ukraine obtaining tanks and armor-fighting vehicles, u.s. military sources tell me they expect to fighting to significantly intensify in the coming months. george? >> thanks, matt. we turn to the economy. new government numbers on inflation out and chief business correspondent rebecca jarvis is tracking the story. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: good morning to you, george. inflation is heading lower but it's still too high. that is the headline from this government report. prices fell .1% between november and december. they're still up 6.5% from a year ago. that means you're paying about $400 more on the same goods and services each month.

that is some relief from the summer when that number was almost $500. now, in addition to feeling inflation in rents which are up 7.5% from a year ago, you're seeing it in services, child care, medical costs, dining out. americans are especially feeling it in food. a gallon of milk runs carton of eggs $4.25, a year ago it was less than $2. eggs are up because of the bird flu. millions of birds wiped out. george? >> this could affect interest rates, as well, which means potential changes for credit cards, mortgages, bank accounts. >> reporter: absolutely. that's what's key. the fed is watching these reports and likely to hike rates again next month because inflation remains too high. that makes borrowing more expensive. we especially see it in credit cards. the average apr for a credit

card hit a record 20.4% in 2022. you want to pay those bills quickly. the positive here is that you are also getting paid more money to save. there are high yield savings accounts right now offering more than 4%, george, which is why it pays to shop around for that savings account. >> you don't want to pay that credit card debt if you can avoid it. rebecca jarvis, thanks. michael? we'll go to the nurses strike at two major hospitals here in new york ending overnight. a tentative deal has been reached, and our whit johnson is at montefiore hospital in the bronx with more. good morning, whit. >> reporter: good morning to you. just moments ago new york's governor kathy hochul calling this a sigh of relief. 7,000 nurses back on the job this morning after three days on the picket lines. those tentative agreements reached overnight effectively ending the strike at two major hospitals. one of those hospitals, montefiore announcing the deal includes 19% pay raises, benefits that match or exceed peer institutions and an increase of 170 nursing positions.

mount sinai says their package is similar to agreements reached at other hospitals across the city and went on to thank staffers for their unwavering dedication to world class patient care. now, one of the key sticking points until the end was the nurse to patient ratio and the union says they won a historic victory, concrete enforceable safe staffing in both deals with specific language and even financial penalties if the hospitals don't comply. this comes at a critical time as well with winter settling in and the number of covid patients again on the rise. also, other respiratory viruses have had a big impact on hospital staffing. robin? >> thankfully it has been resolved. whit, thank you. now the latest on damar hamlin's remarkable recovery. the bills safety, he's waking up at home this morning after being discharged from the hospital. trevor ault is here now with more. good morning, trevor. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this is news the whole league is celebrating. damar hamlin suffered cardiac arrest ten days ago.

we didn't know if he would survive and already he is back at home recovering. just ten days after millions watched as his heart stopped midgame this morning buffalo bills safety damar hamlin is back home. discharged from the hospital. >> it's a blessing, you know. that just shows the type of kid that he is that he's fought and he's continuing to win. >> christmas came in january and thankful to get these presents. >> reporter: the bills announcing hamlin underwent a comprehensive evaluation tuesday including cardiac, neurological and vascular testing. his doctor says he's confident in the 24-year-old's continued rehabilitation at home and with the team. >> this is the last thing you want to see. >> reporter: it's an incredible turnaround from last monday where first responders had to perform cpr midfield to save his life. hamlin then rushed to the cincinnati icu sedated on a ventilator because he couldn't breathe on his own. doctors have been working to

determine the cause of his cardiac arrest. >> they'll be monitoring his heart over a prolonged period of time for any sign of an arrhythmia and probably even do outpatient monitoring on him to see if he's got any evidence that there's electrical instability. >> reporter: bills head coach sean mcdermott says hamlin will be welcome at their training facility as soon as he's ready. he's already inspiring the team as they head into the playoffs this sunday. >> as damar's dahas said to us multiple times and damar mentioned as well, they want us to go do our job. that's what we've got to do. >> reporter: with all this great news, fans are wondering if and when damar hamlin could play again and doctors have said it's still entirely too early to tell, but the best case scenario is he is back to his old self from before the cardiac arrest, meaning it is possible we someday see damar hamlin suit up in a bills uniform once again. >> to know he's waking up at home, we'll take that. >> amazing story. >> 100%.

coming up here on "gma," embattled new congressman george santos facing growing calls to resign from his own party as we get a look at his resume containing multiple lies. we are remembering a rock legend. man, he could play. chris connelly will bring that to us. first back to ginger. >> good morning to y'all. they did it. the sierra nevada mountains, the snowiest start on record and beat '82/'83. this is what it looks like when you go out just every couple of days at mammoth. they are getting 13, 14 feet since just the first of the year, and it must be very difficult, and kind of repetitive, but they're doing it. and the good news, it helps the reservoirs. however, utah has to setoff avalanches triggering them to mitigate danger because more snow will make it further into the rockies and this next system is going to bring upwards of 36 inches in parts of colorado. that's the spot that lake mead and lake powell need it so they haven't gotten the help from all the stuff that happened in the sierra. they need it in the colorado river basin. they're about to get it. your local weather in 30 seconds.

are a lot of other people coming out of the woodwork to allege that george santos engaged in some sort of fraud with them. so it's not just the campaign he's got to worry about now. there's also the potential for maybe other charges that come in connection with something else he did with somebody else. >> we already know brazil has re-opened an old fraud investigation. >> it's not just an investigation. they say there are charges against him there. that they said, in effect, we've been looking for him. we didn't know what happened to him, and then they were able to identify him. do i think he's going to get extradited to brazil for this? no. but it's just another thing that he's facing here. >> he can pretty much hold onto that seat if he wants to. >> absolutely. it would have to be congress that would get rid of him. even if charged, even if he's convicted, it would still have to be under congressional rules that he gets booted from congress. not legally. >> dan abrams, thanks. >> congressionally, could they -- >> i suppose. it's happened before and

happened to jim traficant. he was a democrat from ohio. he would have to be convicted and then that would be it. michael? >> thank you, george. now to newly obtained video of former police chief pete arredondo talking about the widely criticized decisions made in those critical moments in the attack by a gunman who killed 19 children and two teachers inside robb elementary last year. john quinones is leading our team uvalde staying on this story. good morning, john. >> reporter: good morning, michael. for the very first time we're getting to hear and see the now former uvalde school police chief trying to explain what he did and did not do on may 24th, that awful day at robb elementary. >> over the radio. >> reporter: this morning, video obtained by abc news showing now fired uvalde school's police chief pete arredondo speaking to investigators. it was less than 24 hours after the robb elementary school massacre. >> my first thought is that we need to vacate.

>> reporter: he says he tried to protect students he believed were trapped in other classrooms and thought the gunman had been stopped. >> we have him contained. we don't need any more from out here. i said, get these kids out. whatever, i told them. bust those windows. get them out. >> reporter: in this nearly hour long video he answered questions about his response to the shooting and why he didn't treat the scene as an active shooter event. >> when we entered the building on the south entrance of that particular building where this occurred, that door, i know isn't locked because i opened it. when i opened it, i saw a cloud of smoke. i had just heard the shots and they were sporadic. >> reporter: arredondo heading to the classroom door where shots were coming from. >> we were having a hard time getting that door open because we tried -- i can't tell you how many keys and master keys we had.

>> reporter: but even then, while the gunman was reloading, no one stormed into the classroom. that didn't happen until 77 minutes after the first shot. only then did a border patrol agent finally shoot and kill the gunman. >> we're going to get scrutinized. i'm expecting that. we're going to get scrutinized why we didn't go in there. >> reporter: during that interview arredondo tells investigators he didn't storm the classroom because he thought that all of the children inside were already dead. well, as we now know, that was tragically wrong. at least three of the victims who were pulled out of the classroom were still alive, but later died of their injuries. guys? >> it is so hard to hear that, john. but thanks to you and the entire uvalde 365 crew for staying on this story. we'll be right back. ♪ gillette presents... the gillettelabs with exfoliating bar. a razor designed to take the hassle out of your routine. with effortless shaving in one efficient stroke.

increased hair growth on the face, on the chest area. >> reporter: for jennifer the diagnosis was key to coming up with the solution of ivf which eventually resulted in the successful implantation of two embryos. >> when we went in, they said you're having twins. i was like, you are lying. there is no way and they turn that screen around. i was like, oh, my goodness. >> reporter: now the parents of 8-year-olds lexi and lacy, jennifer and tony are about to become parents again. >> you have this vision for yourself and what your life will look like and pcos and fertility definitely threw a wrench in my plans, but i can only be thankful for this journey because i have two beautiful children, two girls who are beautiful, and have a son on the way. >> reporter: for "good morning america," janai norman, abc news, new york. >> and our thanks to janai. joining us now is our chief medical correspondent, you know

dr. jennifer ashton, who is also a board certified ob/gyn. a lot of women deal with this. exactly what is it? is it something you're born with or develops over time? >> you know, robin, we don't really know. this is the most common but least well understood hormonal condition affecting women but it's also a very strong metabolic condition and i describe it as, you know, you have brown eyes, you have pcos and it may or may not present signs or symptoms that affect your life. it's a spectrum disorder. it's not a disease. so you could have a mild form of it or have a severe form of it. and it doesn't always affect fertility, but it absolutely can. usually when a woman doesn't know that she has it. >> how does a woman know if she has it and how do you know if that is a reason why you're having difficulty in getting pregnant? >> i think it depends on where she is in that spectrum of severity. mild cases, you might not know you have it. so if you're trying to conceive

and you're not ovulating regularly, obviously it makes sense that women can have a difficult time getting pregnant. usually this is a diagnosis that we make with a combination of a physical exam, taking a good history from the woman. sometimes doing an ultrasound although in this day and age it's not done as often as it was in the past and blood tests, looking at various gyn hormones, excluding other things, but, you know, sometimes it's very obvious and sometimes it's not that obvious. >> and we saw in janai's piece jennifer turned to ivf. are there other options? >> first, i think it's finding a healh care provider you love that can be your partner in this journey. the psychological and social and emotional support are really important. behavioral, nutrition factors are important for overall wellness. and then, if necessary, some prescription medications to help a woman ovulate, to help her conceive, but there is always, always, always hope, especially for women with pcos. >> always hope. love that, jen. thank you.

tomorrow we'll have more about the ways diet and lifestyle can help manage pcos. now let's go to ginger. >> thanks, robin.co d ia rd highs, but dallas actually had its hottest j temperature in 50 years, more than 50 years. it was 85 degrees. that's part of why we're seeing severe storms including tornado warnings right now, pop up in kentucky. we had one earlier in mississippi. there's a tornado watch that includes birmingham, alabama, and watch as this moves east, you are going to see the severe storm forecast move east. so anybody really from greenville south carolina, down to dothan needs to be on the lookout. drew: i'm meteorologist drew tuma with your accurate weather forecast. we finally get a dry day, mostly cloudy but rain is out of the forecast for your thursday. mild and low to mid-60's. overcast skies, we were remain dry with temperatures on either side with 50 degrees. with the seven-day forecast, more storms are coming, a level
