t week. >> have a great day, everybody. see you at noontime. thanks for watching. captions by: caption colorado comments@captioncolorado.com good morning to our viewers in the west. it is thursday, november 13th, 2014. welcome to "cbs this morning." a spacecraft sends back historic photos after landing on a comet but will it hang on? outrage following an attack on u.s. servicemen on the streets of istanbul. plus how going to the wrong emergency room cost one woman $50,000. >> and we begin this morning with today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. >> we want you to get out of our land. >> through u.s. servicemen attacked by an anti-u.s. mob. >> turkish nationalists pulled hoods over the sailor's heads.

>> three men were able to break free and run back to the ship. >> is it enough to keep you warm? >> almost. >> the brutal arctic blast is moving east. >> denver suffered another night of subzero cold. hundreds of flights were delayed. >> the de-icing pads have been busy all day long. >> after the initial jubilation, the first problem. the lander failed to attach itself stable. they're now optimistic they're going to be able to gather data again. >> china accused of hacking government computers. the national weather service unit was hit. >> an earthquake rattled kansas. >> it caused minor damage. >> the cats starting going like this. looking at each other going, what is this? >> high drama at the world trade center. two window washers dangling 68 stories. firefighters raced to the rescue. >> the score today, no hits, no runs, no errors. >> a midair scare aboard a private jet. bono had a door come off during a flight to germany. >> the plane has landed safely.

>> two kayakers had a close encounter with a shark. >> that's a hammerhead you're looking at. >> all that -- >> pedestrian in russia, look at this. coming inches away from being crushed. he comes out of this unscathed. >> check out the einstein parrot channeling his inner matthew mcconaughey. >> all right, all right, all right. >> -- and all that matters -- >> kim kardashian. >> kim kardashian. >> kim kardashian. >> remember, there are also people out there who know how to land a spacecraft on a moving comet 317 million miles away. >> -- on "cbs this morning." >> in beaumont, california, two people have lined up over two weeks early for black friday. two people said they're hoping to get a great deal on a life. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" presented by toyota. let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning."

as you wake up in the west there is a new milestone in space exploration. we are seeing the first pictures ever taken from the surface of a comet. a manmade probe landed on the comet yesterday and started sending back photos this morning. >> it was a rough landing. the probe bounced before attaching to the comet surface. charlie d'agata is in darmstadt germany, mission control. where they are receiving data. charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. there are a lot of relieved scientists this morning. they made contact with the spacecraft more or less on time. it bounced twice, big bounces. it's now stable and sending pictures home. these are the first images ever to be taken on a comet's surface and it confirms the craft landed but not without a hitch. >> we know what happened yesterday in regard to this bouncing. apparently it bounced twice. there was one bigger jump and a

smaller one about six minutes. now we are on the surface. what we don't know is where we are and how we are there. >> reporter: the mothership rosetta lost radio contact with the probe for hours. entirely expected as the comet rotated. although it has power and onboard instruments are still doing their job, they had to wait until today to reconnect and find out what's going on. but optimism remains high after yesterday's landing. this is the moment the european space agency knew they made history. when their tiny spacecraft sent back the message it was alive and well on a speeding comet. it was the culmination of a 20-year dream. the kind that takes the dedication that borders on the obsessive. one of the agency's top personnel, matt taylor, had the mission tattooed on his leg. >> it's the excitement of these operational challenges, the journey, the seemingly

impossible mission from the get-go. >> reporter: the first bounce was a big one. it was off the ground for two hours. scientists have determined it came to rest on a rocky surface, unlike the powdery one they were aiming for. and it is in the shadow of a cliff which might make it difficult for sunlight to reach its solar panel. >> that's amazing stuff. thank you, charlie d'agata. portland oregon is seeing freezing rain. the temperature could plunge to 32. much of the rockies is dealing with subzero conditions. denver will plunge to minus 15 causing airport delays and other problems there. and it will be 7 degrees in minneapolis. the university of minnesota recruited a shovel brigade to clear the snow for saturday's football game. meteorologist daniel nigro is watching a new storm threat in the northwest. good morning. we're all getting ready.

>> good morning and good morning to our viewers in the west. bitterly cold air continues. current windchills 20 to 30 degrees below zero in parts of the rockies. 2 below in bismark north dakota this morning. temperatures only in the teens from denver to helena. 24 in minneapolis after record warmth yesterday on the east coast. we will be in the 40s to lower 50s today. areas of rain across texas. snow in portions of the great lakes. rain and snow and some mixed precipitation coming into portions of the pacific northwest. that snow is going to spread east and will create slippery travel especially with elevation overnight tonight and through the day tomorrow where 3 to 6 inches and even some amounts over a foot in the higher elevations of the cascades will fall. back over to you. >> danielle, thanks. three navy sailors are okay after an attack in turkey. they were not seriously hut. hurt. a group of protesters called them killers and put bags over their heads. it was ugly and disturbing.

clarissa, good morning. >> good morning. turkish government have already arrested 12 people for the assault. they just came off the "uss ross" for a stop in turkey's capital. the attack took place in broad daylight in a touristy part of istanbul. >> because we define you as murderers, as killers, we want you -- we want you to get off of our land. >> members of a turkish nationalist group surrounded the sailors who were not in uniform. they pelted them with packets of orange dye. >> yankee, go home, they chanted before forcing the hood over the head of one of the sailors. the hood appeared to be a reference to an incident in 2003 when american troops captured turkish soldiers in northern

iraq and put hoods over their heads. it was an episode that was made into a popular turkish movie, "valley of the wolves: iraq." the assault highlighted the strain that recent events in the middle east have placed on the relationship. this is the head of the turkey project for the center for strategic and international studies. >> the most recent opinion poll shows that over 70% of turks have an unfavorable opinion of the u.s. there's a willingness on the part of many turks to believe all sorts of conspiracy theories about the u.s. being involved in nefarious activities against the turks. >> none of the sailors were injured. they immediately returned to their ship. and their shore leave in istanbul has been captured. both the u.s. and turkey appear to be treating this as an isolated incident.

norah? >> clarissa, thanks so much. president obama meets with the president of myanmar to discuss democracy and human rights. the president met earlier in the day with top legislators. he said the work is not done in the country that just emerged from decades of military rule. before he left for asia he warned myanmar's government it is not moving fast enough to create a free society. and, of course, he'll meet later on with aung san suu kyi later on as well. russia's defense minister says the country will expand military air patrols farther from its borders. the areas include the gulf of mexico and the caribbean sea. russia says it's for training exercises. a pentagon official says russia needs to conduct those operations safely. in washington this morn congress is ready to approve a controversial oil pipeline. democrats blocked it for six years. the house is expected to vote today or tomorrow on the

keystone xl project. the senate will vote next week. nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the story behind that sudden turnaround. nancy, good morning. >> good morning. you will not be surprised to hear that it is all about politics, and democrats tries to save the seat of democratic senator mary landrieu whose race has gone to a runoff. and she's trailing in the polls. louisiana is an oil and gas state. the pipeline is very popular there. so democratic leaders thought giving landrieu something she has been demandinging for years might boost her chances at home. landrieu herself insisted this has nothing to do with politics. >> if taking my name off of this bill helps it to pass, go right ahead. this is not about credit. it is not about glory. it is not about politics. it is about getting our work done. >> republicans, of course, want to deny landrieu the credit, and

so they promptly announced that the house will vote on its own keystone pipeline bill which they are calling, i'm serious, the cassidy keystone solution -- after landrieu's opponent louisiana congressman bill cassidy. traveling in asia white house officials have pointed out the president vowed to veto similar legislation in the past and they said his views have not changed. that he still believe, the state department, not congress should determine if this project goes forward. democrats have long had concerns about the environmental impact of the pipeline but they frankly see the writing on the wall, which is that republicans are going to pass it right away as soon as they take control of the senate in january. norah? >> all right, nancy, thank you so much. a magnitude of 4.8 earthquake is intensifying concerns this morning about quakes in kansas. more than 90 have hit the state this year alone. yesterday's quake struck outside wichita. the ground also shook in oklahoma. video captured the moment. >> we're having an earthquake.

>> our affiliate kwch was interviewing a judge when nature intervened. no injuries are reported. earthquakes are rare east of the rockies. the largest ever recorded in kansas was 5.1 magnitude and that was all the way back in 1867. >> the judge was very calm. we are having an earthquake. didn't even blink. scathing criticism from leading doctors this morning about the soaring cost of generic prescription drugs. you know the ones we think are much cheaper. they make up 86% of the prescriptions in this country. >> an opinion piece in today's "new england journal of medicine" spells out the staggering price hikes. our dr. holly phillips is with us this morning. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> what is the status for patients? >> very dramatic in many ways unsettling reminder that the generic drug industry is still very much for profit. looking at data over the past two months two-thirds of

generic drugs increased in price. one-third decreased, but those increases are really dramatic. if you take a drug like doxycycline, i prescribe that all the time. it's used for lyme disease, an antibiotic. it increased by 5,000%. the price per pill in the last year. another drug is captopril, used for high blood pressure the price of the drug went up over 2,500%. >> that is a big, big jump. >> absolutely and very unsustainable. the authors of the article today pointed out one problem which was consolidation within the industry. essentially to say that very simply, if you have eight different drug companies making a drug they need to compete with each other to keep prices low to entice consumers. if you have one drug company making a drug, they basically can set the price and do whatever they want. >> i read "the new england journal of medicine" and pointed it out we believe it should be competition for the market.

this is about, as you point out this is a business story too, that is really affecting a lot of people who need and take a lot pills. >> absolutely. and it's very hard for the consumer to protect themselves. for instance even if you do have insurance that has a drug plan if your drug increases 2500%, you're going to see that in your co-pay. some say, i'll just buy generic and pay out of pocket. that's not going to be very realistic going forward. >> thanks so much, holly. this morning new recordings out this morning reveal the quick reaction of teachers and students after a school shooting in suburban seattle last month. one teacher told a 911 dispatcher about the chaos at marysville-pilchuck high. john blackstone looks at what those calls reveal. >> 911, we have a shooting, marysville-pilchuck high school cafeteria. we have the shooter. we have many injured. marysville-pilchuck high school.

we need emergency right away. my name is megan silberberger, i'm a teacher. >> first year social studies teacher mary silberberger ran toward the gunfire in the cafeteria, not away from it. >> i'm in the cafeteria. i have the shooter. one shooter. blood is everywhere. i do not see the gun. i'm looking at him. >> is he awake? >> i need help. i need help now. >> silberberger was looking at 15-year-old gunman jaylen fryberg shortly after he opened fire on five of his friends and fellow classmates killing four of them. frantic phone calls from worried parents flooded 911 dispatch. >> what's your emergency? >> my daughter just texted me that there are shots fired at her high school. my daughter and other kids have run from their classroom. >> as students fled the high school, silberberger stayed inside the cafeteria with the critically injured students and

the gunman who turned the weapon on himself. >> i tried to stop him before he shot himself. i do not know his name. >> okay. you say he has shot himself? >> he shot himself. >> dozens of calls were made by students, staff, and parents in the first hour after the shooting that have not yet been released, but these new audio recordings are providing insight into those first terrifying moments after the shooting began. for "cbs this morning," john blackstone, san francisco. this morning investigators are trying to determine what triggered a terrifying drama high above new york city. a scaffolding collapse left two workers dangling more than 800 feet up in the air. jericka duncan is in lower manhattan's battery park where a high-altitude rescue unfolded wednesday. jericka, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, norah. one world trade center as you can see here is the nation's tallest skyscraper and it just opened last week.

now, yesterday's daring rescue was captured on live television. viewers across the country could not turn away as well as people who were nearby. the first call for help came in at 12:42 wednesday afternoon. units from the fdny, nypd, and port authority police rushed to the scene. >> we're making our way up to the location. it's on the south side of the building. >> reporter: it apparently malfunctioned leaving them dangling on the side of the building 68 stories up. >> slack developed in the cables on the west side and the scaffold went from a horizontal position, which is a safe position, to what you see up there, the vertical position. >> reporter: the men were attached by security lines and a radio was lowered to them from the roof. >> we reassured them they were working deliberately and in a positive direction to gain access to them. >> reporter: rescuers determined

the safest way to get to the men was to slice through a window of the skyscraper a symbol of rebirth after 9/11. >> we're up to 68. john's on the way up. >> reporter: it took emergency crews 45 minutes to cut through layers of glass. the inner layer was a half-inch thick. a diamond saw was used to cut an eight-foot hole big enough for the men to climb through. the men were taken to bellevue hospital, treated for mild hypothermia and released. officials say the operation was successful because of the coordination between first responders. >> the agencies train for this on a continuation basis, and the results today, two men are going to go home tonight. >> the two men were suspended for about an hour and a half. the port authority of new york and new jersey which operate one world trade center will now investigate to see exactly what went wrong. >> thank you.

rock star bono is safe in germany today after his plane lost a door 8,000 feet in the air. the u2's private jet took off for berlin on wednesday. the rear hatch -- there's a berlin, connecticut, i'm thinking about that. the rear hatchway fell off as the plane got ready to land. an airplane spokesman said there was no danger of a crash. engineers are now trying to find out why it happened. they say everybody on board lost their luggage but they are okay. it is 7:19. we are still seeing some rain around the bay area right now and a whole lot of clouds, in fact fog, as well. so slick roads, thick fog, dangerous on the roads this morning. our hi-def doppler radar has been tracking all of that rain sliding on through. the heaviest now toward gilroy and morgan hill and moving into the monterey bay. as we head toward the afternoon, the skies are going

i did. >> you want to do things kidn't can't. >> that would be nice. night to be more ambitious. coming up this half hour -- >> i was going to say, norah, you have so little ambition. >> gayle we've been worrying about you since the day we met you. >> i'm trying to come out of my shell. >> that gayle, she lacks ambition. like her. she's friendly. >> i'm working hard i'm working hard. holiday shoppers could miss out on some of their gift this year. we're at the forefront of something that could paralyze the shipment. >> an ambulance took her to the nearest hospital but that move could cost her thousands of dollars. the insurance issues that could be come placating care all across the country. the "san francisco chronicle" says the united states government uses drones to patrol half the mexican border. that's according to the "associated press." sources told a.p. there have been about 10,000 flights since march 2013. drone cameras helped identify

routes used by drug smus lers and illegal immigrants. >> "the new york times" says japanese airbag maker takata denies it confirmed tests. its airbags are linked to four deaths. former takata workers told the "times" they found signs of defects in tests ten years ago but they did not tell the safety regulators. they say they confused multiple events and say they're not true. they look at the first in a nation's ban on tobacco sails. >> i find it even more disgusting. >> there you have it. protesters cut short a public meeting in the massachusetts town of westminster. they're upset about the proposal to end the sale of all tobacco products. police escorted members from the meeting out of concerns of

safety. democrat mike beebe argued that his son kyle deserves a second chance. he was found guilty of felony marijuana possession in 2003. he leaves office in january due to term limits. and new developments in the jewelry heist in the diamond district. we told you about this one yesterday. reports show a rival jeweler hired the robbers to scare his competitor. new surveillance video shows one of the suspected thieves. they fled with half a million dollar in jewelry. so far there have been no arrests. >> you said it yesterday. >> i didn't think it would take long. i didn't think that would happen. i thought somebody would see the picture and identify them. a new twist on the affordable health care act. obama said it was-- the republicans

are fuming and the adviser is backpedaling. jan, good morning. >> the timing could hardly be any worse. you have open enrollment starting this weekend, the supreme court taking up a major challenge to the law. it's a time the administration was needing to build support and enthusiasm but these comments are stirring more controversy than ever. >> we were trying to control health care costs. >> he was one of the most senior advisers helping to create the health care law and that's why people could not believe he said this. >> lack of transparency is a huge political advantage and basically you know call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever but really that was critical to get it to pass. >> those remarks weren't the only time obama adviser jonathan gruber suggested the administration pulled a fast one with the law. gruber was a key player in developing the law. "the new york times" in a glowing 2012 profile said he not

only put together the basic principles of the proposal but helped congress draft the specifics of the legislation. as a consultant the government paid gruber an m.i.t. economics professor, nearly $400,000 for that work. his comments in lectures more than a year ago have added to critics' discontinuing distrust of the law and the administration. >> the architect left out saying they had to lie and he's joking about it with his fellow economics buddies. >> gruber now is backing off those remarks, going on msnbc to apologize. >> i was speaking off the cuff and i basically spoke inappropriately and i regret having made those comments. >> but on the defensive once again, the administration and its allies say gruber's remarks weren't just inappropriate but wrong. >> every single time this issue

came up, it was how do we explain things so that people can understand them. not how do we hide them not anything about hoodwinking. >> the skeptics say this is a defining moment that confirms their suspicions. >> what you hear john gruber saying in the video is exactly that, yeah we made false promises and took advantage of the stupid american people to pass the law and we're happy that we did. >> it was only after a philadelphia man who was dubious about the law started digging around on the internet and he found these videos online and this whole controversy took off from there. gayle? >> all right. thank you, jan. growing concerns this morning that a slowdown at one of the country's biggest ports could hit holiday shipments. business could come to a halt on the west coast. battle could stop crucial imports.

phones, but all of it could be at risk because of ana alleged docks. everything in this warehouse came over on a container ship. >> that's correct. >> those are his lifeline. the tents he sells comes from china. he says it takes typically three days to get from the port to his warehouse in downtown los angeles but now it suddenly takes two weeks. his customers including walmart and amazon are not happy. >> are you at the point where you're worry about losing business? >> yeah absolutely. not only losing business, but it's killing our profit. >> who do you blame for the? >> the unions. they're trying to strong arm

whoever they're negotiating with. they've slowed down emptying the container and held them off at the port. >> he's caught in the middle offal union organization. management accuses the eun yn of a slowdown by quote, unilaterally refusing to dispatch hundreds of qualified skilledworkers for critically imported positions transporting containers in terminal yards. the union does not deny the charge. >> it shouldn't surprise anybody that workers run out of patience and have to make their conditions known and if that means the company needs to hear that message, hopefully they'll hear it work harder to get everything resolved so they can get things back on track. >> reporter: even before the slowdown, the largest ports were already suffered the worst congestion in a decade.

retailers worry about not having enough goods on their shelves. the national retail federation sent a letter to president obama asking for a federal mediator to settle dispute. it was warned, a put f a full shutdown of every west coast port may be imminent. the impact would be coast ports for 11 day and that cost the u.s. economy $10 billion. >> ben thank you so much. ahead, one woman got a shocking bill for life-saving treatment. >> i'm more stressed over the fact that i didn't have a choice. i didn't have a choice then and

he loves me, he loves me not he loves me, he loves me not he loves me! warm and flaky in fifteen... everyone loves pillsbury grands. make dinner pop. this is jim. a man who doesn't stand still. but jim has afib, atrial fibrillation an irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. that puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. for years, jim's medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but now, with once-a-day xarelto®, jim's on the move. jim's doctor recommended xarelto®. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afib-related stroke risk. but xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem that doesn't require regular blood monitoring. so jim's not tied to that monitoring routine. gps: proceed to the designated route. not today. for patients currently well managed

on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions jim can eat the healthy foods he likes. don't stop taking xarelto® rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. jim changed his routine. ask your doctor about xarelto®. once-a-day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring,

no known dietary restrictions. for information and savings options, download the xarelto® patient center app call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com.

woman after what could have been a deadly heart attack, but now she faces medical bills that could send her into bankruptcy because an ambulance took her to a hospital outside of her medical plan. dean reynolds is in madison wisconsin, where a state law could be part of the problem. when you were taken by ambulance, were you unconscious? >> i was. >> reporter: in september of last year megan almost died from a heart attack. >> you had no idea what was going on when you were taken to the hospital. >> no, not at all. >> but she recovered and got the best of care. >> i owe them and the ambulance

drivers my life. >> dr. stewart watson is with st. mary's. >> we treat patients that come in without regard to their insurance coverage and ability to play. >> reporter: and that unfortunately is the problem because st. mary's was out of the network of hospitals covered by her insurer, blue cross/blue shield. she received bills of more than $300,000. blue cross agreed to pay what it would have had st. mary's been in its network, but that meant rothbauer was on the hook for close to $150,000 that wasn't covered. st. mary's swallowed almost 90% of their services but that still left about $40,000 to be paid separately to their doctors. wisconsin state law says a person needing emergency care must be taken to the nearest hospital. what's frustrating about this case is that an in-network

hospital was only three blocks away and that rothbaurer's bill there would have been only $1,500. she hopes the hospital and company can do more. >> i kind of wish they would lock themselves in a room and go figure it out together hash it out. >> reporter: meg gaines is a health care advocate. >> what i think people don't realize is health care is primarily a business. the reality is that until you get sick and have to use an insurance policy you can't and don't understand what it's about. >> reporter: there's no definitive data on how often patients are taken to hospitals not covered by their insurance, but the officials at st. mary's say they believe rothbauer's case is frustrating. >> i didn't have a choice. i didn't have a choice then. i don't have a choice now. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning" dean reynolds madison,

first views ever of a comet. it bounced twisz before attaching itself to the surface. >> nasa naut john grunsfeld is a veteran of five space shuttle flights. those include eight spacewalks and more than 58 days in space. he's the associate administrator of nasa science mission director. he joins us now at the table. john, welcome. >> thank you very much. very exciting day. >> i know. where were you watching? >> i was watching from nasa headquarters. we had a big crowd around the big screen. a lot of tension. from mars we had seven minutes of terror. this was seven hours of terror for the european space agency. >> why is it so exciting? >> it's so exciting. this is the first time that we've ever landed on a comet and it's going to be the first time we're up close and personal with a comet. now, why comet? why do we care about comets? people have cared about comets as long as we have known. ancient chinese writings of the guest stars pretending future wars or crops.

in recent times we've realized comets are part of the building blocks of our solar system. they may be our only rosetta stone of what we're made of the water that we are made of the organics could be the comets were a source of water on earth. >> what data do you hope they will get? >> of course this is a very detailed science mission. people have been working on this for decades. we're going to learn about the structure of the surface of the comet, the composition. right now it looks like it's kind of like exceedingly burnt toast but we know there's water there, too. specifically, does the water, did the actual atomic components of the water, of course we know it's hydrogen and oxygen does it look like earth's water. that's one of the big questions. >> explain how difficult this mission was. this particular comet i understand is about 2 1/2 miles wide. it was going 40,000 miles an hour. the fact that it bumped just for a little bit, incredible that it made it that it stuck, right? >> well, you know pilots know that any landing that's a safe

landing is a good landing and fillet looks like it landed three times. that actually just highlights how difficult this was. keep in mind that this little spacecraft that could was completely on its own. the speed is not that much of a factor because the spacecraft rosetta and fillet were both going the same speed as the comet. from the spacecraft perspective it was gently floating down but it takes about 28 minutes for the signal to get from the spacecraft back to earth. we were all spectators. >> what is the biggest question it might answer? >> i think the central question really is, does the comet water look like water on earth. but there are many, many different questions about organics. >> the director said this is a big step for human civilization. >> well, i think just from a broad perspective. we have the curiosity rover on mars. we now have the lander on a comet with rosetta circling around. in 2016 we're going to launch a

mission called ocyrus rex. it's going to do a touch and go landing on an asteroid and bring pieces back. this is the golden age of planet planetary exploration. this is the first time of venturing out and landing on the surface of a comet is hallmark. >> you're still psyched about it. i like that. >> your enthusiasm is infectious, john. thanks so much. the massive cold weather front in the central u.s. is now reaching the east coast and the deep south. freeze warnings are in place for tonight as far as south as louisiana. early morning temperatures are below zero again in the rockies. the big chill is causing flight delays at airports like denver international. more snow is likely in michigan and wisconsin where a big snowstorm set records earlier this week. president obama met with the president of myanmar, a country moving from dictatorship to democracy. he predicted the nation once known as ber what will have

it has been a nice little soaker overnight, although it can looks like the rain is starting to wind down a bit now. overlooking san jose, a whole lot of clouds there, but fairly dry at the moment, although still a chance of a few more scattered light showers. you can see some of that on our high-def doppler radar, but the bulk of the rain has moved on by now. some of the mountain tops, actually over half an inch of rain. as the rain moves out of town, i think the skies will part this afternoon. temperatures are going to be cool, though, in the 60s outside. about 63 in pacifica, 65 in napa, and 66 in concord. next couple of days, return to dry weather, more sunshine, too. maybe a couple 70s in warmer spots over the weekend. partly cloudy in the middle of next week. we'll check out your kcbs traffic when we come back.
