during the altercation, saying he made the weapon on board in the bathroom. >> just how unusual is this degree of violence? >> it's extraordinarily unusual. but it doesn't take that much to take a lot of every day items and turn them into weans. >> reporter: it comes as we're learning new details about torres. in 2015, he was ordered by a court to undergo a psychiatric evaluation according to a lawsuit filed against a hospital years later in which he alleged he was misdiagnosed with a mental health disorder. in that suit torres who represented himself sought $50 billion and a license to carry and use if necessary any type, concealed or unconcealed, firearms and explosives, on any commercial transport. the case was later dismissed. united airlines says it has zero tolerance for any type of violence on our flights. adding, this customer will be banned from flying on united pending an investigation. >> this was a very-long flight. he behaved this way that we saw on camera 45 minutes before landing. any indication of what was happening before that? >> so even before this five and a half hour flight took off,

molly, these are rare, these are direct messages. how seriously are they being received? >> reporter: yes, hoda, that's exactly right. these are rare, and for today, in the second day in a row we heard similar comments so beijing's new foreign minister doubling down, warning the u.s. and china are hurling towards what he calls direct confrontation and conflict. fiery comments from the foreign minister underlined a deepening tension between the two world's biggest economies. this after sharp comments from china's leader xi jinping yesterday blaming washington for these deteriorating relationships. now, speaking on legislative session, it was recorted by china's state tv, xi accused washington of trying to fence china in. take a look at what exactly he said. he said, western countries led by the united states have implemented all-round containment, encirclement and suppression of china, which has brought unprecedented severe challenges to our country's development. hoda, as you mentioned, these are strong rare words from china's leader.

of course, all of this comes as beijing strongly denies the u.s. allegations that it is considering giving moscow lethal aid to use in the war in ukraine. >> and you brought that up right there, the war in ukraine. this is all happening against that backdrop. give us the latest on the fighting there. >> that's exactly right. that is the backdrop that we cannot ignore. and from the foreign minister, china's foreign minister, again, he did say that the china-russia relationship does not pose a threat, as far as what is happening on the ground in ukraine. according to ukrainian armed forces, the russian military has launched more than 50 air strikes and at least 5 missile strikes just today. the focus for the ukrainian remains on that eastern city of bakhmut. the uk ministry of defense says they have stabilized their defensive line. the other headline that we are monitoring, that we are watching for, is any indication that xi will visit moscow to meet with president putin. no word yet on if or when that might happen. hoda? >> all right. molly hunter for us, thanks. last night, fox news host

tucker carlson aired newly released video from the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. the footage was provided exclusively to carlson by republican house speaker kevin mccarthy. carlson attempting to downplay the violence by showing video of people calmly walking around the capitol. tucker was trying to persuade his viewers that while there were some bad apples, most of those there were peaceful. he called them sight-seers. other video that carlson did not air showed hours of violent combat. more than 100 officers were injured during the attack. in response, congressman thompson, the former chairman of the january 6th committee released a statement saying, speaker mccarthy quote died it was more important to give into a fox host's lies and propaganda than to protect the capitol and the police members and staff that serve in it. also this morning, with new storm threats developing, there is added urgency to reach more california residents who are trapped in their homes after record snowfall. emergency teams now they're going door to door to rescue

people who are stranded. we will get to dylan's forecast in just a minute. but first, nbc national correspondent miguel almaguer joins us from california. good morning, miguel. >> reporter: hoda, good morning. this is what so many homes and neighborhoods look like in the mountains just outside of los angeles. there's actually several cars buried behind me. in this front lawn you can see mound after mound of snow. another concern in this community, snow on roof tops. the man that lives in this home says he finally has food and water and digging out will take days. this morning, this is the race to reach the snow-bound in southern california. emergency teams digging out trapped residents in the san bernardino mountains, just 80 miles east of l.a. homes and cars submerged in snow drifts more than nine feet tall. >> it feels like an apocalyptic movie. >> reporter: in the last two weeks alone, over 7 million

cubic yards of snow cleared from state highways. the equivalent of more than 2,000 olympic-sized swimming pools, but many side roads here are still undrivable. >> without us volunteers, there's no telling how many dead bodies we'd be recovering. >> reporter: middle school teacher steve gaskill, serving as a literal lifeline, scaling the snow to deliver food and medications to stranded residents, like marissa cupsink. including insulin for her uncle. >> it's just scary not being able to get out. >> how desperate did you need these supplies, including that insulin? >> oh, it's matter of life or death for my uncle. >> reporter: pregnant mom stephanie gillis and her husband david were trapped in their home when she went into labor. road closures preventing their midwives from arriving in time. >> that's when things started to get a little stressful for me. >> reporter: luckily, stephanie gave birth to a healthy baby girl audrey without

complications. meantime, northern california also facing dangerous conditions. heavy snow in the sierra nevada, collapsing roofs and making travel treacherous. yosemite national park and over a dozen state parks closed indefinitely as californians come together to help brave this historic winter wallop. there is some good news in this area. most of the major roads have been plowed but many side roads and driveways have not. this corvette is encased in snow and ice. the other major concern is plunging temperatures. if the temperatures drop lower and folks don't get power back this could be a life and death matter. back to you. >> miguel almaguer for us there, reporting from california, thanks. >> without heat, without medicines that are needed. let's check in with dylan to get the forecast this morning. hi. good morning, guys.

the next round of snow at least will impact central and northern california. so a little north of where miguel is right now. you can see we have winter weather advisories and winter storm warnings in effect. more moisture moving onshore. mostly snow for the higher elevations at this point. and it will continue to accumulate. as we wait for the next storm system to make its way onshore. so through thursday, for this first storm, we could see about one to two feet of snow up across mount shasta and the sierra mountain range. a little higher in elevations, could end up with one to three feet of snow. we call it an atmospheric river. because basically, it is this on-shore flow of water, that kinds of follows this path along this cold front and it brings all of that rain and the mountain snow onshore. so with the next storm system expected to come in friday and into saturday, that is going to only enhance the amount of rain and snow that we're seeing in that area. we could end up though with about two to six inches of rainfall, so when you factor in the fact that the snow is going to melt in the higher elevations and then combined with that heavy rain, that could lead to a major flooding concern, also the

runoff and also just the fact that avalanches and mudslides are possible, too. so this is going to be a big storm system that is going to impact california as we get later into the week, with again, two to six inches of rain and also the possibility of feet of snow. that's a look at the weather across the country. we'll get to your local forecast in the next 30 seconds. . rs entering a burning house... will one day save time when lives are on the line. visualizing a patient's most recent scan... will help speed up decision making in the er. and while the woolly mammoth is still extinct... that doesn't mean students can't take field trips to visit them. the metaverse may be virtual, but the impact will be real. good tuesday morning. i'm meteorologist kari hall. we've seen a little bit of rain here and there, especially for san francisco, moving over toward oakland. not all of us are starting out the day with rain. i think for the most part it's going to be fairly dry.

we've now had six runway close calls. we'll get to the most recent in just a minute. we've had that midair turbulence you discussed with injuries, one person killed. we also had that engine explosion because of a bird strike now the faa is holding an emergency landing in cuba, and now the faa is holding this emergency summit next week to drill down on aviation safety nationwide after months of high profile close calls, the bird strike and engine fire on that southwest flight over cuba, it has put a lot of people on edge. >> people were screaming, not knowing what to do and trying to breathe. and it is filling up with more smoke. >> reporter: thankfully the plane landed safely back in havana. >> if you lose an engine, if you lose a computer system, you've got multiple fail-safes right? >> absolutely. i mean we've got typically two to three different systems to back each other up >> for each system >> for each system. >> reporter: mark weiss is a former american airlines captain. >> the airplanes are certified

miracle on the hudson in 2009, successfully landing in the freezing hudson river after losing both engines to a bird strike and anyone on board survived and he works now as an aviation safety expert with years of experience captain sullenberger, we just laid out all of those incidents. they're not related but do you see a thread do you see a thread that concerns you >> they are the canaries in the coal mine. and they should concern us they're indications that as good as a job as we've done in this complex system, there's always improvements that can be made. and we still have work to do two things that stand out to me right now that are long-term issues that we need to work on is the faa and our other critically important infrastructure needs to be able to get from congress predictable long-term, multi-year funding, so that we're not doing

band-aids, where we take a long-term approach and we need to have faa administrators who are confirmed and not a series of acting administrators those two things alone in the long term would do a lot to stabilize the system. >> do you see a connection to the pandemic and the fact that there were people, pilots were flying less, just by definition? >> yes, i do we've lost a lot of our flying and the recovery from covid has been more rapid than many expected, so we've been caught short. and in many important ways and it's staffing. the staffing issue would, again, benefitting from increased multi-year funding so we can anticipate, we can recruit, hire and train air traffic controllers, maintenance technicians, and others and get them in place before we need them. and not be playing catch up. >> as mentioned each of thes incidents are different, they

have their own set of facts, but six runway close calls just this year what do you make of that >> again, it's a reminder of, in spite of how safe the system is, what is really at stake, and how critically important it is that we have in place the human technology system in which each can do their part to back each other up, to be resilient, reliable, and redundant to track these mistakes and correct them before they can lead to harm >> we have not had a fatal commercial airline crash in this country since 2009 thank god for that do you think there is a sense of complacency that sets in when air travel has been thankfully so safe? >> yes, we've become the victims of our own success we must keep reminding ourselves on literally a daily basis that even though air travel has become ultra safe and routine, what we're really doing is pushing a tube filled with people through the upper

atmosphere, seven or eight miles above the earth, at 80% of the speed of sound, in a hostile environment with outside air temperatures to minus 70 and air pressure one quarter of that to the surface. and we must return safely to the surface every time. >> when you put it that way it gives us suspect perspective and makes us respect what we're doing there. captain sully sullenberger, always good to get your perspective, thank you >> good to be with you. coming up, that was an interesting conversation, by the way. >> details. yes, coming up, new details this morning shedding light on the alarming teacher shortage from coast to coast and what some schools are doing to fill those vacancies. first, sam brock is in florida where businesses and police are gearing up for the big spring break crowds hey, sam. >> reporter: hoda, savannah, take it all in what is that spring break, it is officially here we're talking, guys, about ramped-up police presence, officers on atv and horseback, cell phones as a tool to predict how many people are down here

kicked off last friday and lasts about a month well into april, i'm at the historic west gate cocoa beach pier over my shoulder you can picture the number of people eating, drinking, listening to live music. they have ramped up the police presence but further down the coastline that is on the microscope miami beach, expecting 50,000 people a day during the heightened period and the mayor of miami beach says there will be zero tolerance for any kind of violence. in miami beach, the calm before the spring break storm >> i wanted to catch it before spring break, so i could just have a nice quiet time. >> reporter: florida is the nation's top spring break destination this year, according to aaa thanks to the sunshine state's theme parks, cruise ship ports, and over 800 miles of coastline. >> this is the place to be everyone comes down here to party, to relax, to experience the beaches. >> reporter: but with that popularity comes some challenges miami beach mayor dan gelber wants visits to enjoy the

vacation haven but avoid a repeat of the past two years. >> what is the curfew right now? >> we don't have a curfew. >> but that could change >> it could change if circumstances require us to do something to do something to keep people safe >> reporter: in 2022, local officials forced to declare a state of emergency, including a midnight curfew, after unruly behavior and several shootings plagued the city during spring break. >> don't come here and do stupid things or criminal things because it's going to be bad for you and bad for us. >> reporter: just a 30-minute train ride away in fort lauderdale >> we all know, spring break is going to be crazy. >> reporter: authorities reminding spring breakers alcohol is banned from public beaches through april 2nd. along with coolers, tents, and loud music >> unfortunately, this time of the year, we see a lot of injuries that are alcohol-related. >> reporter: at the nation's airports, the tsa is anticipating an upward trend in travel volume this spring break, possibly exceeding pre-pandemic

levels tampa's airport expecting a record number of travelers >> i like to refer to spring break as the super bowl for the airport. >> reporter: in the orlando area, officials expect more than 7 million to fly in and out over that time frame. in cocoa beach, it's already lively on an early march monday. >> just in terms of the economic vitality of this particular city though, how important is spring break? >> very important. it's one of the busiest times of the year for cocoa beach. >> reporter: spring breakers dreaming of sunshine, being urged to pack some common sense. >> all right, sam. we have a question for you collectively so what if you want to go to spring break but you don't want anything to do with those rowdy crowds you want to avoid, you want to have a peaceful break. what should you do >> reporter: yeah, i would not go to florida. first of all but let's assume for a second that you definitely do want to go to florida. like, there is a few tips guys, you definitely want to keep in mind certainly to maintain your

sanity on the way down there, do yourself a favor and make sure you sign up for either tsa pre-check or cleared if you've been to the airport during the peak times you see the difference in the lines. clear can basically be done on the spot as far as tsa pre-check is concerned typically it takes three to five days to process those applications and it could take up to 60 days hopefully it is shorter for you. and call the hotel as you're checking in or before hopefully and make sure you're not near an elevator because that is generally where people tend to congregate it can be louder as well and as far as what is going on in your local community, check for programmed events. miami beach is doing a great job of this, guys, which is to say they are having carnivale or concerts every single weekend during spring break to make sure that folks have something to do and are staying out of trouble, or at least a little bit of trouble. as much as can be expected >> all right we got it. thank you. we weren't always grandmas we had our day senor frog's. >> i don't believe that. >> yes. >> it happened
