finally re-opening this stretch of i-70 that was shut down after several semis and vehicles crashed. that was on wednesday, back here in new england, the snow in maine, four to eight inches we're talking about worse in the northern elevations and tapering off toward the coast as the day goes on as we still at this hour are getting a light snowfall. eva. >> thank you. sam champion joins us now with a track of this storm. good morning to you, sam. >> reporter: good morning, eva. what a contrast from phil's situation to the record-setting temperatures from tennessee to florida yesterday as well. we've got cold air settling into the west, but let's get to this storm that's exiting where phil showed you from the northeast this morning and another storm. so winter alerts from maine all the way into new york, 6 inches of snow already in maine near portland. that rain moving out right now from the northeast. you can follow that radar into those warnings and watch that low pull it all the way. so we'll get some drier skies there. most of the snow and rain winding down today except for maine. those snow rates have been an

inch an hour in some cases. next storm we're watching this moisture in the gulf of mexico, it is pumping up an awful lot of moisture into a developing storm that will move into the northeast. this is going to have a snowy line, and a lot will go from west virginia through pennsylvania, also new york state. vermont, new hampshire, maine will get a hit of snow along coastal cities, like washington into new york. we're watching where that slippery slide line will be. sleet with this and higher elevation snow accumulations, but closest to the coast and those i-95 communities, it does look like we're coming in mostly rain event for monday but it will be an awful lot of strong wind and again, another system to move up the shoreline. we have just been pounded by back-to-back systems in a lot of places. does cold air really solidly move in the northeast? we'll talk about that as we go through the morning, guys. >> sam, thank you. now to breaking news from overnight, a shooting at an indiana walmart. a man opening fire inside the store leading to a gun battle with officers. andrew dymburt has the latest

for us. andrew, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. the attacker is dead after a shootout with police inside the store. it sent shoppers and employees into a panic, and this morning, we're learning the gunman is a former employee while the victim is a current worker at that walmart. >> walmart, be advised active shooting. multiple calls. >> reporter: overnight one person hurt and the gunman is dead after a shootout with police inside of a walmart in southern indiana. when officers arrived on scene, they say people were running out of this walmart in evansville, and police wasted no time moving in. >> clear the air. clear the air. where is the suspect? >> reporter: officers were trying to locate the shooter who they say was running all over the store. >> the shooter is currently shooting from the electronics area of walmart. >> reporter: they were met with a hail of bullets. police say the gunman immediately started shooting at them while moving through the aisles. >> the suspect has been shot and is deceased. when officers went in, they were trying to locate the suspect, and he was all over the store, you know, he would shoot at officers and move. >> reporter: one victim was taken to the hospital with gunshot wounds, no officers were hurt. >> the offender is 25-year-old

ronald ray mosley ii. we know walmart was a previous workplace for him and appear he and the victim were possible co-workers at one time. >> reporter: no word yet on a possible motive for the shooting. this morning walmart issuing a statement that reads in part the entire walmart family is shocked by the senseless violence that occurred. we'll do everything we can to support our associates as they cope with this tragedy, michael. >> andrew, thank you very much for that. now we're going to turn to the "rust" film set shooting. prosecutors saying actor alec baldwin and the film's armorer each facing two counts of involuntary manslaughter for the deadly shooting of cinematographer halyna hutchins. linsey davis is in santa fe, new mexico, with the latest for us. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning, michael. stunning charges for the actor and the armorer. the district attorney says that they're warranted, though, citing a criminal disregard for safety. she says that there's a point where negligence becomes recklessness, and in this case it caused someone to die.

alec baldwin is waking up to a new reality this morning. the oscar nominated actor faces criminal charges for the 2021 fatal shooting on the set of the movie "rust." >> a person died because of this negligence, because of this recklessness. >> reporter: the santa fe, new mexico, district attorney announced that baldwin along with the film's armorer, hannah gutierrez-reed, will be charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in the death of cinematographer halyna hutchins. the film's assistant director dave halls is agreeing to a plea deal for negligent use of a deadly weapon. >> three different people, if they had only done their job, we wouldn't be standing here. >> reporter: gutierrez-reed's attorney released a statement saying, these charges are the result of a very flawed investigation and an inaccurate understanding of the full facts. hannah will be exonerated of wrongdoing by a jury. baldwin's attorney says the actor relied on the

professionals with whom he worked who assured him the gun did not have live rounds. we will fight these charges and we will win. the 64-year-old actor was holding a prop gun and rehearsing a scene when the colt 45 revolver discharged firing off a live round striking and killing hutchins and injuring director joel sousa. why did you believe and ultimately decide you had a strong enough case to bring charges against both hannah and alec? >> they were not doing the things that they should have been doing in order to have a safety conscious and certainly with gun, a gun conscious movie set. >> reporter: according to court gutierrez-reed handled the gun before it was handed over to baldwin. >> do you feel guilt? >> no, no, i feel that there is -- i feel that -- that someone is responsible for what happened, and i can't say who that is, but i know it's not me. >> reporter: months after the incident, baldwin told our

george stephanopoulos that he did not pull the trigger. >> it wasn't in the script for the trigger to be pulled. >> well, the trigger wasn't pulled. i didn't pull the trigger. >> reporter: prosecutors say otherwise. >> the trigger had to have been pulled, so alec is wrong. >> reporter: lisa torraco, the attorney for assistant director halls, who helped arrange his plea deal, says her client now has closure. >> he can move on, and the hutchins family can move on. this was the best resolution that could happen, because at least a part of this case is resolved, and it's going to be peace for these people. >> reporter: crew member thomas gandy was near halyna hutchins that fateful day. >> my trust in anybody handling prop weapons is much thinner. than it ever used to be. i always used to say don't take it for granted ever ever again, ever again. >> reporter: despite this tragedy, producers intend to finish the film. hutchins' husband is now an executive producer as part of a wrongful death settlement.

the family's attorney released a statement saying in part, we support the charges and fervently hope the justice system works to protect the public and hold accountable those who break the law. the million dollar question here, authorities say they still don't know how those live rounds made it onto the set. if found guilty, baldwin and gutierrez-reed face up to 18 months to 5 years in prison, guys. >> thank you, linsey. and let's bring in abc news chief legal analyst dan abrams. and, dan, what is your reaction to these charges? >> they had the book thrown at them. >> i mean, this is the maximum possible charges that could have been on the table. because you're not just talking about involuntary manslaughter, you're talking about another theory of involuntary manslaughter which has an enhancement for using a weapon, which means that if convicted a mandatory, mandatory the prosecutor didn't have to go with that. i think that's an overcharge here. why? because even if you think alec baldwin ought to have been

charged, even if you think involuntary manslaughter ought to apply, the enhancement for a gun, this more serious mandatory five year, isn't supposed to typically apply to a situation where the gun is the crime. it's supposed to apply to a situation where, for example, there's a robbery, right, and someone is killed in the context of the robbery, and you say, let's issue an enhancement here because they used a gun in the context of the robbery. then you get the more severe potential involuntary manslaughter, so i wouldn't be surprised if that particular charge would get dismissed before any sort of trial if there is going to be a trial at all. >> and baldwin's lawyer, he signaled they're going to fight this. what will his defense be? >> the first line of defense will be with a judge saying the charges should be dismissed in a preliminary hearing. he's going to say, this is a mistake. you can't criminalize an error here. i relied on other people to tell me that this was not a gun with a live round. >> and then you had the assistant director, he pleaded no contest to a separate gun charge. his attorney says they believe

he has nothing to do with this so what do you make of that and what does that mean for alec baldwin? what does that mean for gutierrez-reed? >> i expect he'll be testifying against them. now, he pled no contest here. what does that mean? it's effectively a guilty plea without taking responsibility. it means you're saying if it went to trial there would be enough evidence to convict me. that's a no contest, but i'm not pleading guilty, per se. i think that's probably a technicality here in the context of not wanting to admit for a civil lawsuit, but he could be a very important witness in the case. >> well, we know you'll be on top of it for us. thank you as always. whit. michael, now to president biden answering questions about those classified documents for the first time since a special counsel was named to investigate the matter and appearing confident that there was no serious wrongdoing. >> i think you're going to find there's nothing there. i have no regrets. i'm following what the lawyers have told me they want me to do. it's exactly what we're doing. there's no there there, thank

you. >> for more now let's go to our senior white house correspondent mary bruce. mary, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. yeah, the president confident there is no there there, but he is also clearly frustrated and pushing back. there are still a lot of outstanding questions about what the president described as a handful of documents that were filed in the wrong place, and even though this has become a political liability for him, the president says he has no regrets that they didn't disclose these classified documents sooner because he is adamant that they are doing this by the book saying they are fully cooperating and complying with the ongoing special counsel investigation, and the president says he is looking forward to this being resolved quickly. eva. >> mary bruce traveling with the president there, thanks, mary. well now to the debt ceiling showdown. the u.s. government has officially hit its credit limit. treasury secretary janet yellen informing house speaker kevin mccarthy that she is now taking extraordinary measures to keep the country solvent and urging congress to take action. senior congressional correspondent rachel scott is on capitol hill with the latest.

good morning, rachel. >> reporter: eva, good morning. and those steps taken by the treasury secretary essentially buy congress a little bit more time to try and hash out an agreement, but that is only temporary, and right now there is no deal in sight. if congress does not act to raise the debt limit in the coming months, seniors could stop receiving social security payments. troops could go unpaid. we could see interest rates spike on everything from mortgage to car to credit card payments, and we're not talking about money to pay for future projects. raising the nation's borrowing limit is all about paying for the nation's current bills. it's something that congress has done over the last 80 years, democrats and republicans have worked together to do this, but this time house republicans say if they agree to raise the debt limit, then they want the president to agree to spending cuts. the white house firing back saying, this should be done with no conditions around it. they insist they're not even willing to negotiate with republicans, so right now you

have this bitter standoff. the u.s. has never defaulted on its debt, but neither side is giving in, michael. >> all right, rachel scott, thank you, as always. and now to that announcement from google this morning. the tech giant planning to slash 12,000 jobs just days after microsoft made its own cuts. rebecca jarvis is here to break it down for us. good morning, rebecca. >> nice to see you, michael. good morning, and this is a difficult day at google. the ceo announcing those cuts in a note to employees that the tech giant is cutting 12,000 workers. it is the latest round of layoffs that impact technology jobs, as you say, michael, earlier this week microsoft said it would be laying off 10,000 of its employees as well and the companies join a number of others in their industry including facebook, parent meta, netflix, tesla and amazon who increased hiring during the pandemic on this assumption that the massive growth they were seeing as people were stuck at home would continue to stick around after the economy re-opened. well, so far we have not seen a spillover into other areas of the economy, but that is a concern as more and more tech companies cut back, michael.

>> yeah, definitely some unfortunate news there. thank you, rebecca. whit. all right. we turn to the australian open with some american tennis stars rocking the court with some major wins down under. lara is here with all the details. lara, good morning. some exciting tennis. >> absolutely. i'm all over it. good morning, everyone. dose of american girl power ubl- overnight with two of the brightest women stars scoring big victories. let's start with coco gauff. the teen phenom holding her own against a barrage of big hits from fellow american bernarda pera to win in straight sets and cruise into the next round for the second time in her career, and shegs's not alone. jessica pegula needed only just over an hour to take out ukraine's marta kostyuk and the 18-year-old has made it to the quarterfinals for the last two years and see if she can make it three in a row. fun fact, her parents, oh, they're the owners of the buffalo bills who are gearing up for their big playoff game sunday.

shaping up to be a big weekend for the pegula family, right? >> i would say so. >> let's move over to the men. marathon man andy murray enduring a 5:45 match to come whack and take a fifth set against australian warrior thanasi kokkinakis. it didn't end till 4:05:00 a.m. no rest for the weary. he takes the court again tonight and catch all the action down under on espn2 and streaming on espn plus and hopefully right here again on monday with more good news for americans. >> 5:45. >> can you imagine? >> nope. >> nope. [ laughter ] >> i'm tired just talking about it. >> yeah, i'm tired hearing you talk bit. thank you so much. coming up, we are celebrating the legacy of david crosby, how the musician defined the music of a generation and the tributes pouring in. and the parents of the 6-year-old who shot his teacher tell their story for the first time. what they're saying this morning but first, let's go back to sam. hey, sam.

social isolation with dementia in seniors. dr. ashton here to break that down. first, we have a lot of news to get to, starting with the cross-country storm slamming the northeast bringing as much as a foot of snow to some areas and sam champion is back with the track. hey, sam. >> reporter: hey, michael, good morning, part of that is the record heat really and truly from tennessee into florida. that's exiting but into the boston area this morning, now, in boston proper, the roads are fine, we've got a little wet surface there but picked up an inch away from the coastline, inland in massachusetts four to five inches. over to wisconsin right now, remember, this storm crossed the country no matter how much snow you get, never take for granted that you can drive on this stuff. this is a school bus that slides off the road thursday morning. there are no injuries there. most of the rain and snow in the northeast is winding down this morning.

the things that absolutely can help lower the risk, we can improve social support, caregiving and health care access for this population, what can they do? connect and contact friends and family, keep those relationships intact, engage in community activities and then activities like book clubs, games, walking, volunteering, anything that engages our mind, our mood, our spirit and keeps that as active as your bicep muscle, michael, will be really, really important. it is never too late to intervene for anyone but especially when you're talking

story. priyanka chopra jonas talking candidly about the criticism she faced for having her daughter via surrogate. the actress telling british "vogue" how painful it is when people talk about her child. stephanie ramos is here with more on the story. good morning, stephanie. >> reporter: good morning. not a pleasant experience for her. priyanka chopra jonas surprised her more than 80 million instagram followers last year with a simple post announcing her baby's arrival via surrogacy but the reaction wasn't one she was expecting. this morning, actress priyanka chopra jonas getting personal speaking out about her journey to motherhood and criticism she faced using a surrogate with husband singer nick jonas. >> protecting our country had always been my dream. but my life took a very drastic turn. >> reporter: the "quantico" actress gracing the cover of british ""vogue" and opening up about the hurtful commentary she

faced after her baby was born just a year ago. she tells the magazine she's very protective of her baby and developed a tough hide when people talk about me but so different when they talk about my daughter. keep her out of it. the 40-year-old biting back at others who theorize why the couple enlisted a surrogate in the first place. you don't know me. you don't know what i've been through and just because i don't want to make my medical history or my daughter's public doesn't give you the right to make up whatever the reasons were. the road to motherhood wasn't easy, chopra jonas saying she had medical complications and surrogacy was a necessary step. her daughter was also premature born three months early. chopra jonas says i was in the o.r. when she came out, so small, smaller than my hand and it was a rough few months as the new parents visited the nicu daily staying there for more than 100 days saying, we spent every single day with her on my chest on my husband's chest, i didn't know if she would make it

or not. priyanka says motherhood has changed her center. after grinding in the industry for 20 years she says she has a sense of calm now and is focusing on her favorite role to date, being a mother. you can see the full feature in the february issue of british "vogue" available via digital download and on newsstands tuesday, january 24th. whit. >> all right, stephanie, thank you. now to the great sleepover debate. the childhood rite of passage for many has gotten quite complicated these days with millions of parents posting on tiktok under the #nosleepover. it's a story we first saw in "the washington post" and joining us are parenting experts ericka souter and rachel simmons. great to have you both. so, rachel, let's start with you. 5 is it that is renewing this debate now and where do you stand? >> well, whit, many parents are asking if it's even safe to send our kids to another person's house and i think part of what's happening is they're worried about covid fears, guns in the house, even a lot of screen time and as a parent, i think these sleepovers are such good opportunities for kids to

practice being resilient and independent when they're away from us, they get to make decisions on their own and that's a critical building block experience for stuff they'll do later like go on a field trip or go to summer camp or even to college so safety matters but so do early learning experience. >> all important points. let's bring in ericka souter here. we were talking about this before because i have young kids, the sleepover debate is happening and you and your husband disagreed on this at first. how did you find compromise gentleman. >> we were a house divided. he hated the idea. i thought it was an essential part of parenthood but i understood the fears. will there be bullying, who else will be in and out of the house? so it's important to listen to your partner or co-parent and understand where those fears are coming from. and it school be rooted in a bad childhood experience and once you have that conversation and

kind of hash out why each of you feels the way you feel come up with a compromise or set of rules that work for your family. for us, it was age 13. we thought lex would be -- he could add vogt for himself. he understood different behaviors a little better and was confident enough to call us if he felt unsafe or uncomfortable. and then consider the alternate. you pick up your child at 11:30 p.m. or 12:00 p.m. they don't get the whole experience but get some of the fun. the point of all this is to make sure everyone feels safe enough to express their fears and concerns. >> so you said age 13. we were saying, my wife and agreed on age 10 but for every family and every kid it just depends how comfortable you are in your community. >> it is and what rules you want to attach to being able to go to a sleepover. >> i want to ask a follow-up question. especially online we've seen a lot of parents expressing concerns about cultural differences and how that can factor into all of this. how do you take that into consideration as a parent? >> i don't think that you can have any kind of parenting debate today without considering

the cultural differences. i've talked to a lot of newly immigrated parents and first and second generation parents who sleepovers are a big no-no. they just weren't a part of their lives growing up so they don't see the point. and i also talked to a lot of black mothers who don't feel comfortable sending their kid to anyone's house who isn't a relative. lots of people feel that way actually and no matter who you are or what your background is it's all about trust and whether it's worth the risk and i want to add this is not a new debate. it's been going on for generations. it's just with social media it's so in our face. >> it's out there and, rachel, i want to bring you in. ericka was talking about that trust and part of this is as a parent, right, if you hand your kids over to someone else, another set of parents, the host family, so to speak, how do you approach the discussion about rules and what's okay and what's not in the home? >> it's such a good question. so we have to kind of walk a line, right? we want to be grateful for the hospitality that another family is offering to our kid.

we don't want to be overbearing or demanding and so i think we have to be okay about communicating our hopes and expectations but also realizing if you have a hard-and-fast rule that you need a family to abide by or enforce you got to check with them first to make sure it's okay with them. if they're not comfortable enforcing it it might just not be the right time or the right family but we definitely have to balance that gratitude with sharing what we want. >> our rule is everybody in bed by 9:00 and that did not go well in our first effort. thank you so much, rachel, ericka, always great to see you in person. lara, let's head over to you for "pop news." >> we have a lot to talk about and we want to start by wishing dolly parton a happy belated birthday. she turned 77 years young yesterday. and in true dolly fashion she's the one giving us the present. dolly dropping a new song called "don't make me have to come down there." >> oh, boy. >> take a listen. ♪ don't make me have to come down there ♪ ♪ reach this great divide and
