winds. ahead of it we could see severe storms that extend south it's a massive storm system. the coldest of the air in the dakotas into minneapolis, right on the rain/snow line. you see eastward it's like a rain event the middle of the week in the great lakes. on the back side snow could take hold where is most of the snow going to fall? i would say across eastern montana into north and south dakota with the gusty winds, blizzard conditions, but some areas in those heavier bands could end up with two feet of snow out of this storm system. >> thank you. now to a major step torward justice for hundreds of families nearly 34 years after the terror attack that brought down pan am flight 103 over lockerbie, scotland, killing 270 people, 190 of them americans. the accused bomb maker is now in american custody nbc's chief foreign affairs correspondent andrea mitchell has covered this story from the beginning. joins us from washington good morning. >> good morning.

going to trade bad guys for celebrities because it creates the wrong incentives. >> reporter: bout for conspiring to kill americans, among other charges, is speaking out, telling russian state media he fully supports the war in ukraine and would volunteer if he could. u.s. officials say any threat bout may pose is manageable and that they are focused on bringing more wrongfully imprisoned americans like paul whelan home. a battle griner is also vowing to fight. >> b.g. and i will remain committed to the work of getting every american home. >> reporter: as for what else might be next for griner, no word on whether she plans to return to the wnba for the upcoming season. the players association says that her health is their top concern but they are hopeful that she'll return to the court soon. hoda? >> thank you. now to the war in ukraine

electrical grid, temporarily blacking out odesa, firing up to 60 mortars and artillery shells at kherson russia has a special score to settle with this city. last month, there were victory celebrations in kherson's main square after ukrainians drov out russian troops ending eight months of occupation now the party is over. the latest russian attacks caused rolling blackouts and forced many residents to leave in pop-up warming and charging centers like this one, the mood remains upbeat and optimistic because residents here say the current hardships are still better than living under russian occupation these children were only spared from being separated from their friends, caregivers, and country because of lies. they are orphans living in a hospital in kherson. during the occupation, doctors and nurses told russian troops the children were all sick with communicable diseases or couldn't be moved, so the soldiers would stay away from

them russian troops took other orphans to russia to be given to families the unions often shown on russian tv to reinforce moscow's official line that russia is saving ukrainians from their supposedly neo-nazi government ukrainian officials say more than 13,000 children have been sent to russia since the war began. a nurse says how would americans feel if some other country was taking american children away? these children will grow up in russia raised as russians. it's a type of genocide, she says. ukrainians call also call it state kidnapping. russia is open about what it's doing, even proud, saying its policy is designed to rescue children from a war zone. savannah. >> richard, thank you very much. this world cup is incredible

pediatrician but some older children if it's low grade they don't necessarily have to medicate through it. >> this is the time of year everybody is packing into houses, older people, little toddlers, we are all together. someone is going to have something. what is the best advice how to navigate that? >> i know. up until this year we were really just dominating with covid, covid, covid. but the winter season has always been -- it's a flurry of respiratory viruses and my, you know, gold standard is plan your activities around the most vulnerable person in your household. for some it's a newborn. others it's an older individual. we are not helpless. make sure you are up to date on the covid booster and get your flu shot over 65 there is a high dose in time for the december holidays if you get vaccinated now. stay home if you are sick. the usual precautions still apply. >> dr. natalie, last few days new york city suggests that people wear masks inside crowded spaces do you think that's where we are

headed again are we going to be masking up over the next few months >> you know, i don't know about the mandate, right i don't know how much we have an appetite for a mandate any more. once we see the hospital strain happen, don't be too surprised if that were to happen what i mean by that is, like, if 10% of the hospital beds are taken up by covid patients for a two-week period, i think l.a. is in that situation right now, that's a real cause for concern. covid and flu and rsv, obviously, lands people in the hospital but on public transportation, i don't know if i said this to you last week, craig, i have been masking on the subway and in the bus from the beginning and i -- people look at me and i think, something wrong with me? i'm the only one doing it. new yorkers out there, especially if you are living in an urban area, consider wearing a mask on public transportation for goodness sakes it will really protect you. >> especially if you don't feel well. >> especially if you don't feel well. >> thank you. over to dylan, a check of the weather.

[ cheers and applause >> those are the live nominations. i told dave, you are in charge

let's discuss this best picture first. >> best drama there were som ones that were expected. "avatar" is beautiful, by the way, the sequel. opens this week. nominated against "elvis," which came out this summer, steven spielberg "the fablemans" which is very dear to him. "tar" and "top gun" also for best song. it did okay today. >> tom cruise didn't get nominated. there's a history there. >> he gave his golden globes back in the midst of the controversy over the foreign press. there was no golden globe ceremony last year because they designed to air it because the golden globe voters didn't have any black voters the question is, who is going to come to the golden globes this year i'm getting the sense that a lot of people will come back one person who won't be, is brendan fraser, who was nominated for best actor in the

"whale." he accused one of the members of the press of groping him at an event. this has been all over the place. he was nominated for his beautiful performance in "the whale" with austin butler the star of "elvis." >> that is such a great film is this his first nomination >> yes what a breakthrough. hugh jackman was nominated for a very intense movie he called "the sun" which is about teenage depression bill nye a british actor from "love actually." nominated for -- >> and no tom cruise is that a snub what is that >> i am surprised he wasn't nominated. he gave his golden globes back i think that he is probably going to do well and the movie will do well throughout the whole season. another person left out was will smith. he has a movie on apple tv called "emancipation." >> what about actresses? >> actress is anna who

played marilyn monroe. three oscar winners right there. michelle williams for "the fablemans. the person left out danielle dead weiler from "till." she plays the mother of emmett till would was lynched decades ago in a very powerful performance i am surprised was not nominated. but it will be throughout the season. >> what else stands out to you >> again, you see one of the big winners is "the banshees of insherin." >> what is >> never even heard of it. >> you have to see it. colin farrell's new movie, written and directed by martin mcdonagh who did "three billboards." it's a terrific film out now matt from my kind of quick count did well with nominations for the whole cast and best picture, director, screenplay. >> is it still the case, golden globes, are they a preview for the oscars or two different animals? >> there is no overlap but they

do help to kind of focus and sharpen the overall awards season race. you can kind of read the tea leaves as you look at nominations like these. >> television, did something jump out >> as usual, a mix of some of the cable shows and streaming shows. "better call saul," "the crown," having a great season, "house of the dragon" from "game of thrones" "ozark" and "severance." adam scott as well. >> "white lotus" got a ton of nominations. jennifer coolidge, a lot of very -- don't fret >> good, because i was fretting. i had a fret. >> and dave, thank you of course, you can catch the 80th golden globes january 10th right here on nbc and also streaming on peacock. still ahead, guys, the secret behind one the nfl's fastest teams. what jacob soboroff discovered at practice with the miami dolphins dolphins orst, this is "today"

back now, 8:46, with our "inside the game" series for the nfl season. >> the dolphins lost a nail biter to the chargers on "sunday night football." while miami fell short of victory, the team's speed was on full display. >> jacob soboroff, you spent time with the guys leading up to the show >> there is something for nerds in the nfl, guys even though it ended in a loss for the dolphins, they made explosive plays, including this incredible 57-yard fumble return touchdown by tareq hill, a top speed of 22 miles an hour. yeah look at him on his way to the end zone there. >> they call him a cheetah. >> the dolphins credit cool technology to give them a closer look at what players are truly capable of >> reporter: the miami dolphins

say their not so secret weapon is their speed >> running room to the ten, the five, touchdown! >> reporter: the speed for you one of the top metrics a nfl player >> speed is a top metric for me. >> reporter: rhamel mostert and his teammates tyreek hill and jaylen waddle are three of the fastest player in the nfl. regularly hitting 21, 22, even 23 miles per hour on the gridiron that's how fast i drive when my children are in the car. that's how fast you run? >> yeah. >> reporter: that's crazy. >> yeah, it's pretty interesting. you are able to track the miles per hour and see how fast you are going. >> reporter: the dolphins head conditioning coach, says those incredible speeds are many data points gathered by radio frequency id chips affixed to players' jerseys and pads. this is it >> you feel how light that is. >> reporter: here is a quarter here is the tag.

almost exactly the same size on game days, all 32 teams i the nfl are tracked by sensors embedded in pads, pylons, the ball a third of the teams use the technology during practice, including the dolphins why are the dolphins all in on this technology? >> just makes sense. it's a no-brainer when it comes to being able to see what they are doing out on the field, how they are responding to the stresses of practice and then how we can tweak things to make sure they are performing at an optimal level. >> reporter: miami's coaches and an analytics team monitor 108,000 data points in real time. >> where guys are at compared to the averages in practice, speeds being hit, distance being covered. it's like putting a tracker on your car to know how many miles you covered in a day. >> reporter: the coach says the information is just one part of the equation. >> the information is not anything secretive really. it's how you execute it and it's really how you are able to communicate with players and get

them to buy in and understand the why behind what you are trying to get them to do you can have all the information in the world if you can't communicate it effectively to t these guys s af they donon't trust y you, it's g to be useleless. >> repororter: and w while spee an imporortant factotor, he says itit's not eveverything. >> we are looking at a ton of other metrics to say this guy is doing a little too much, maybe should pull back, or is not doing enough. >> reporter: might the guys push themselves too hard because they have access to all this data >> sure. we want that we want to have to pull them back but we also have to be smart for rahim, if he is doing too much, you might want to pull back a little bit because we got a few more days and, you know, we want to get him to sunday >> reporter: for mostert, he says the data fuels healthy competition and prevents him from getting injured people would feel nervous if a chip was tracking their movement and speed. you like this? >> i love it

i go to the guys running the laptop, what i getting you got 18 so that's when i try to ramp up in practice. you want to get as much as you possibly can and still preserve your body leading up to the game and when the game comes you have to let it fly. >> so the coach really believes this data gives his team a competitive edge but he doesn't want it to be a secret it reduces injury risk, as well. fair to say we want that for everybody. >> that explains why tyreke hill is one of the fastest to play the game. >> the three of them all together is like a triple threat threat detect thihis: living with hiv,v, i learned d i can stay u undetectablble
