we're still seeing some lingering showers in spots. so even though for the next couple of hours you may see some light rain moving through, overall, the rest of the forecast is looking much better and lighter traffic overall. here's the east bay where we have recovery for highway 24. that's a sticking point because of an earlier crash, which has cleared recovery from lafayette in toward the caldecott tunnel. look at the south bay by comparison, this is a traffic tuesday. lighter traffic watch the parking lots around the grocery stores. i think that's the busy spot. you have to make special maps for that. all right, you work on that and we're going to get ready for the today show coming up next. hi there hi there. good tuesday morning. the holiday travel rush is on. >> and the weather is not cooperating. good morning. it's november 26th. this is "today". holiday headaches.

powerful storms already causing major problems for millions of thanksgiving travelers. a coast-to-coast system on the move, set to bring rain, high winds and snow from nevada to new england, airport delays mounting with two tarmac collisions adding to passenger misery. >> i have no idea what's going on. >> we'll have everything you need to know and, of course, al's forecast. pay up. president trump vowing to impose major new tariffs on mexico, canada and china starting on day one of his administration, a controversial move some say will lead to even higher prices for american consumers. we'll break it all down. case closed. a judge agreeing to dismiss the 2020 election interference case against donald trump overnight after a dramatic reversal from the special counsel asking for all federal charges against the president-elect to be dropped. the very latest and what both

sides are saying about the sudden end to a years' long legal battle straight ahead. new delays. the menendez brothers suffer a setback in their push for freedom. their sentencing hearing now on hold until next year. just ahead, the emotional reaction from their family. >> i just want them home. >> and what's next in the infamous case. all that, plus caught on camera, a small plane makes an emergency landing, skidding down a road before crashing into a tree. two people taken to the hospital as investigators try to piece together what went wrong. and family affair. the ravens beat the chargers with baltimore's star quarterback getting it done on the ground. >> jackson to the edge! touchdown, ravens! >> and through the air. >> bateman. and he has got it for the touchdown!

>> to give jon bragging rights over jim in the coaching battle of the harbaugh brothers. today is tuesday, november 26th, 2024. ♪ 1a in rockefeller plaza. good to see you. welcome to "today." it's a tuesday morning. so happy you're with us. john harbaugh is the guy. >> john versus jim. how is thanksgiving going to be in the harbaugh house? that was a good game, but the ravens prevail. they did hug it out right after. let's get to our top story. the record thanksgiving travel rush is shifting into high gear today but a pair of storms are wreaking havoc in the skies and on the roads around the country. in the meantime, not one but two different plane collisions have held up travelers at busy

logan airport in boston. and the ongoing shortage of air traffic controllers has caused delays at another airport here in the northeast. we're going to turn to al in just a moment for the latest holiday forecast. adrian broaddus is standing by at chicago's o'hare airport. good morning. >> reporter: hoda, good morning. high traffic could mean long lines at security checkpoints. airport officials expect today and tomorrow to be the busiest of the week. this morning, it's the perfect storm for holiday travel headaches. two major weather systems dumping heavy snow and rain from the west coast to the plains to the east coast just as record numbers of travelers hit the roads and skies for thanksgiving. the tsa expecting more than 18 million passengers at airports this week, a 22% jump from two years ago. why did you choose to leave today? >> we were trying to get ahead of all the holiday travel traffic.

>> reporter: in san francisco, heavy winds elaying nearly a quarter of flights. and in newark, a shortage of air traffic controllers causing big delays. in boston, holdups with two separate plane collisions in hours. overnight, an airplane carrying five people struck by an empty jetblue aircraft being towed by a tug vehicle in boston. hours later, at the same airport, an american airlines' plane clipping the wing tip of a frontier airlines jet preparing to depart with 200 passengers on board. some frustrated passengers wait waiting for nearly two days for a flight. >> i have no idea what's going on. >> reporter: gas prices have

fallen to $3.06 a gallon, down from $3.26 a year ago. back to that collision. frontier is offering $100 travel vouchers or full refunds. plus they're offering meal and hotel vouchers. travelers are bracing for snow in the coming days, hoping that weather doesn't impact their flight as they make their way to the thanksgiving table. hoda. mr. roker is watching those holiday week storms and their timing very closely for all of us. >> yesterday we were talking about these models not getting together. well, they're starting to get some consensus. on the east coast, a quick hit of rain, snow as you get up into new england. out west, it's going to cross the country. impacts will go from the west to the east coast. today the pacific storm heads into the rockies. look for rain in california, mountain snows and snow starting to develop right on through the rockies.

impacts likely, denver, salt lake, los angeles, las vegas and san diego. tomorrow east of the rockies with snow from st. louis, indianapolis and upstate new york. rain and snow will pick up into the evening. airport delays, kansas city, st. louis, denver, dallas, austin, nashville and detroit. then we move into the roadways. it's a real mess. i-64, i-75, i-65 as well, on thanksgiving day this storm strengthens. >> we're worried about the parade. >> it's not my fault. >> we've never paid this much attention to your weather forecast. >> ever. snow from syracuse up into new england, east coast rain and snow. along the i-95 corridor, your big problems are going to be the rain and the wind, but snow from ohio to new england, so the rain

is going to be a problem. i-70, i-87 as you get to the south. pack the patience. take your time. you're going to get to where you need to go, but just not when you expect to get it. take it easy. now to a move that could have a major impact on consumer prices. president-elect trump vowing overnight to make good on his campaign promise, saying he will slap new tariffs on products from canada, mexico and china on his very first day in office. here to break down what this could mean for you, your wallet, for business in this country, business correspondent christine romans. we have tasked you this morning with schoolhouse rock. the real idea of what are tariffs, how will they affect consumers, because this is something trump campaigned on and he's ready to deliver on this promise. >> this is an import tax.

a tariff is an import tax. imagine you are a load of lumber coming from canada to the american housing market. as it crosses the border, whoever is buying that lumber in the united states must pay a tariff, according to the president-elect, 25% tariff. a dollar of lumber now costs $1.25. who pays that? donald trump keeps saying the countries pay it, the government of canada would pay 25 cents on every dollar. that's not how it works. whoever imports it into the united states pays it, and they pass it along to consumers. these taxes essentially end up in your grocery bill, your housing bill. american consumers pay them or the companies that import them pay them. alarm bells in the capitals last night of our closest friends and allies because they see this as something that could disrupt supply chains. it could lead to counter tariffs and retaliation.

>> how would a retaliatory tariff work? >> imagine canada, for example. it has a big auto cars. half of the auto parts were made in america, shipped to canada, put in a car and shipped back to the united states. it's a very dynamic cross-border situation. if they're going to be taxed to send something to us, why wouldn't they tax the united states to send the parts in the first place? it sounds complicated, but when you start throwing taxes on top of taxes among your best friends, that disrupts supply chains, it can raise prices. what's interesting is president trump talked about being tariff man before because he wants tariffs to have stuff made in america, saying if you're going to make it someplace else, i'm going to put a big tariff on it because i want it made in america. this time it's different. he wants these countries to stop illegal immigration and the drug trade.

this is more of a punishment, a different kind of rationale than we've seen before. wondering if this is an opening salvo of what would be a long negotiation. but on day one prices could start rising early next year. i was covering the port strikes a few months ago. as i was talking to people who bring things in and out of these ports, they say we have been stockpiling goods that we import because we expect big, big tariffs and inflation and supply problems in the spring. so industry is preparing for this. >> inflation is what most analysts think led to donald trump's victory. people were sick of paying more prices. >> if you have 10% tariffs on chinese goods, which donald trump has promised, goldman sachs said that would add one percentage point to inflation.

instead of 2.5% inflation, you have 3% inflation. you put big tariffs on our closest allies, that would mean more inflation too. we are following a major development in the federal criminal cases against the president-elect. special counsel jack smith filing motions to drop all charges tied to trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election and the mishandling of classified documents, citing justice department policy that prohibits the prosecution of a sitting president. laura jarrett is here with details. good morning. >> good morning to you. the cases were a first of their kind, striking allegations, an effort to cling to power, the mishandling of our nation's top secrets, claims only made possible because mr. trump was a private citizen at the time. from the very beginning there were delays and detours and ultimately a successful strategy in bringing all of this to a shift end. first, the political victory, and this morning, a legal one. the top prosecutor overseeing

the federal charges against president-elect trump formally asking to drop them. special counsel jack smith writing, the justice department's longstanding policy against prosecuting a sitting president should apply to the president-elect as well. notwithstanding the gravity of the crimes charged and the strength of the government's proof. a federal judge in washington quickly signing off on the move, which was expected, bringing the final conclusion to a historic case accusing mr. trump of a criminal plot to reverse the 2020 election results as he ran for reelection. >> my office will seek a speedy trial so our evidence can be tested in court. >> but it never got off the ground, marred in delays and cut down by the supreme court's decision last summer, finding some of mr. trump's conduct immune from any prosecution at all, while then-candidate trump, who plead not guilty to all charges, sought to use his criminal exposure to his criminal advantage.

>> you get indicted for ing with a presidential election where you have every right to do it. you get indicted, and your poll numbers go up. >> reporter: smith is expected to resign before trump can fire him, also moving to dismiss the charges he brought in florida accusing mr. trump of illegally hoarding classified documents at mar-a-lago after he left office and obstructing the government's efforts to get them back. >> those are the federal cases. there are two other state cases, one awaiting sentencing. >> the georgia case is still sort of a mystery. it was tied up on appeal over that alleged ethical conflict with d.a. fani willis. and the defense wants to wipe out his conviction in the hush money case. there will be a final report from special counsel jack smith detailing his decision making and why he decided not to bring

certain charges that we should see. >> the trump justice department doesn't have any say over those state cases. >> has no say, and you can't be pardoned for them. the push for peace in the middle east. israel and hezbollah appear to be on the verge of a cease-fire deal, but both sides are continuing to carry out new attacks. keir simmons joins us. >> reporter: european diplomats and u.s. officials signaling to nbc news this morning that we are potentially on the brink of something. a cease-fire deal might involve hezbollah ing its heavy weapons behind the la tan any river. the leader of hezbollah saying any agreement would need to be complete and comprehensive. that doesn't sound like israel saying it reserves the right to

deal with, quote, disturbances. the families of those hostages pointing out that this deal does not involve gaza. 60,000 israelis have had to leave their homes in northern israel. 3500 people have been killed in lebanon and the rockets and bloodshed has continued in recent days. the storm before the calm, you could call it, hoda. will there be calm? the israeli cabinet meets in just a few hours. >> keir, thank you. good morning. from the middle east now to tensions mounting once again between russia and ukraine, trading new drone strikes and threats overnight. richard engel is in kyiv for us. richard, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, craig. many more drone strikes. all night we could hear the air

ride raid sirens in kyiv. rush launched 188 drones at this country just overnight, a record number. russian attacks have been escalating in recent days. today nato and ukrainian officials are convening an urgent meeting. russia is advancing at its fastest pace in two years, according to an assessment from the institute for the study of war. moscow is firing swarms of drones daily as well as artillery and missiles. but it was russia's launch of a new kind of missile last week that got nato's attention. ukrainian intelligence clocked it flying 11 times the speed of sound. russia has the momentum as the holiday season in kyiv begins. >> oh my gosh. merry christmas. >> reporter: this charity gives psychological support to children whose parents were killed in battle or had their homes destroyed by making cupcakes, writing letters to soldiers and tying bracelets and

crafting ornaments in ukraine's national colors. >> i will put this on our tree at home. >> reporter: down to the american flag on the table, their message couldn't be clearer. please don't abandon us. how important for ukraine is that american support? we hope a lot for u.s. support to finally bring us victory, says oksana. those fears that american support is dwindling after president trump repeatedly criticized current aid levels. her father is missing in action. >> how much does your son understand what happened with his father? he knows his dad has disappeared, but every night he hangs up the keys and hopes he'll come home. tatiana, she's lost her faith in the war. i think we're going to lose, she says, and we will be taken over by russia.

ukrainians have held strong for more than 1,000 days, but with russian advances and u.s. policy in transition, the stress is showing. it is not that ukraine is sitting on its hands in any way. president zelenskyy saying that every every russian attack must be responded to. >> richard, thank you. a lot more to get to, including monday night football, the matchup in the nfl, the game simply known as the har-bowl. john harbaugh going head to head against his brother, the chargers' head coach jim harbaugh. this is the first time they faced each other in the nfl. the first two going to john. and last night, you could make it three. >> here is hill. he gets the first down! and on he goes, inside the 10, end zone.

touchdown, justice hill! >> the ravens hold onto win 30-23. they improve to 8-4 on the season. >> imagine the trash talk at thanksgiving. >> oh yeah. big time. what's up, al? >> we're looking at heavy snow out through the cascades, into the rockies later today. a flood risk along the california coast. plenty of sunshine right now from the great lakes all the way down to texas, mild highs down through forward.lorida. we're going to get to your local forecast in the next 30 seconds.

because of that, united, alaska, american, southwest, they've not received the 737 maxes that they ordered from boeing. as a result, they've had to curtail their flight schedules. that's likely to continue well into 25, maybe into '26. the issues with boeing, including crashes overseas, the door plug and the strike have had a real impact on the airlines trying to service customers. >> thank you. weather is another wrinkle with all that. >> if i were traveling on thanksgiving and i could do it, i'd take the train. >> i think you're right. >> just saying it for a friend. by the way, another area we are worried about, the eastern great lakes. starting thursday, thanksgiving day, we've got this big low pressure system. this is going to be the first major lake-effect snow event, this frigid air coming out.

in fact, we're looking at the first big cold blast coming early next week. this is literally the siberian express. this is going to create a long-duration lake-effect snow event from cleveland to buffalo, oswego to new york. some areas could pick up to three feet of snow if everything works out the way we think it may. bitterly cold on friday. saturday, a winter chill continuing, that cold air. warmer and sunnier down through the south. sunday, lake-effect snow. again, the airports like detroit could have some problems. boston is not bad. salt lake city, san francisco all looking good. if you are going to be driving on sunday, lake-effect snow is going to cause big problems

it's based on a series of true events that a lot of us forgot or didn't know about, about a white supremacist group that was trying to escalate and have an armed militia. >> that's right. this took place in '83 in the pacific northwest. the fbi uncovered it through a series of robberies and linked the ies to financing an urban army. they were following the seven-step guide through a book they were all obsessed with, and they got to step five. it was a serious threat. >> it's haunting. we need to ask about "star wars." you are now in the "star wars" universe. we're of the same age. "star wars" was it. were you one of the kids playing with the figurines? >> i was prime age. prior to "star wars" i'd probably seen or been taken to

see the disney animated movies we all love. and then "star wars" landed and changed everything. >> do you remember when you saw it? >> i do. going to the cinema was such an event. it sort of flooded everything. it was all i played. it was all i wanted to play with the little toys and collect the cards. >> now you're in this new trilogy. what is your character? do you pay homage to characters you've loved all your life? >> in the back of my mind i'm thinking of the wonderful influences those characters had on me. the guy i play has a sort of cynical roguish quality. >> i'm feeling han solo. >> he's hard to pin down. his name is jod. he's hard to pin down. >> close to jude. >> i know. i took that as a compliment. >> for sure.

>> i'd just like to see what the fans think. i'm really not sure. >> cannot wait for that. i read this morning also that you watch like three movies a week. you're a huge movie buff. >> i try. i've got two children under 4, so most of that stuff is wa they want. i used to certain try to. yeah, i grew up, yeah, loving movies. >> that's amazing. finally, you know i have to ask, so just give the people what we want. is there going to be a holiday sequel? >> listen, i think visiting those four -- is it 20 years, maybe 16 years? i'd love to see where they were. >> wouldn't it be so fun? >> i think so. the wonderful nancy myers -- come on, nancy. >> if nancy does it, you're a yes? >> i'm a yes.

>> cameron just started doing a movie recently, so i think she'd be game. you ask kate. >> jack black. >> we can do this. it's all up to you, nancy. >> that's it. >> thank you so much. the movie is called "the order." you had a seven-minute standing ovation when it premiered in venice. >> we were overwhelmed. it was a wonderful recession. that was our world premier. >> comes out in theaters december 6th. this is "today" on nbc.
