welcome to "cbs this morning." as you wake up in the west drought-stricken areas are seeing too much rain all at once. people across california driving across streets submerged in water are covered in mud. but the most rain in months is barely making a dent in the drought. >> forecasters say as much as 6 inches of rain could fall today. ben tracy is in glendora, california, east of los angeles, with the dangers created by the wet weather. ben, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we're catching a little break from the rain this morning here in glendora. and so far, these concrete barriers and about 7,000 of these sandbags have kept the water and mud out of homes. but check this out, rain and mud in the streets that now needs to be cleaned up. parts of california are getting more rain in one day than they got during the entire month of december last year.

a wildfire took away the hillside behind his home. mud was in the first floor of his home. he spent $30,000 repairing and reinforcing his property. >> so we're bracing, trying to keep it up here, trying to keep it from hitting the house and going into the neighborhood. >> reporter: now, we are expecting more rain later this morning. not quite as much as yesterday but probably enough to mess up the morning commute in a city where not all that used to using their windshield wipers. thank you, ben. meteorologist danielle niles of our cbs station bbz is track the storm. danielle, good morning. >> good morning. good morning to our viewers best in. the big story has been the rain. winter storm warnings with that rain changing to snow in the mountains. for that mudslide risk that continues. the heaviest rain is focused in

san francisco. you can see the counterclockwise spin. we've still got some upper level energy that needs to come through. that will mean periods of rain off and on during the day today. some locally heavy downpours and skatserred showers through the afternoon on thursday into early friday morning. temperatures in the 40s in seattle. but 60s when you get from san francisco down to los angeles. >> danielle, thanks. investigators in knoxville, tennessee, are trying to figure out why two school buses packed with children collide. two young children and one adult died. more than 20 others were hurt. manuel bojorquez is in knoxville where the area is shaken by the tragedy. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the two children who were killed and many injured attended the school behind me. sunny view here in knoxville. an aide killed in the crash also worked here. classes have been canceled today as school officials are trying to piece together exactly how an everyday bus ride turned deadly.

moments after tuesday's crash, passing drivers and frantic parents rushed to the scene. >> i justs that it was something simple until we got there. and when i saw that their bus was smashed in the front, i knew something was wrong. >> reporter: at around 2:50 in the afternoon police say bus 44 from chiloee intermediary was traveling eastbound when it made a sharp left turn, crossed over the concrete median and hit bus 57 from sunnyview primary causing it to flip on its side. within minutes police and emt were to the scene, pulling people from the wreckage and scrambling to reunite children with their families. >> he was in shock, crying. he was petrified. he's never been in an accident before. for it to be his bus, he's really scared. >> reporter: two young girls and a school aide identified as kim riddle were pronounced dead at the scene. at least 22 students were taken

vinita nair is here with a report and a rare interview from bill cosby. >> 56-year-old judy who says she and a friend met bill cosby on a movie set outside los angeles 40 years ago. she said cosby asked her how old she were in that initial conversation. cosby then allegedly invited the girls to his tennis club that weekend. after the girls met him at the club he then asked them to follow him to a nearby house. according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by "cbs this morning," it was at the house where cosby played games of billiards with 15-year-old julie huth while serving alcoholic beverages to her and her 16-year-old friend. cosby then told the girls he had a surprise for them and led them to the playboy mansion in los angeles. if any of the playboy bunnies asked their age, huth claims cosby told the girl also to say they were 19. huth says at the mansion she was directed by cosby to a bathroom within a bedroom suite and when

she emerged she found cosby sitting on the bed. he attempted to put his hand down her pants and then took his hand and performed a sex act on himself without her consent. >> by the way, i need a phone card. do you think you can fix that for me? >> reporter: huth claimed she suffered psychological damage and significant problems from the assault. no criminal charges have ever been filed against the comedian, although he settled a civil lawsuit out of court in 2006. cosby's attorneys have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and cosby himself has tried to remain tight-lipped about the accusations. but last night in a rare tweet since the recent allegations began he wrote, thank you, whoopi goldberg. the talk show co-host had

expressed skepticism made by allegations of barbara bowman in november. >> i hope there is justice for this lady. i hope to get to the bottom of this. i'm going to reserve my judgment because i have a lot of questions. >> we reached out to judy huth and bill cosby's representatives for a statement. neither has returned comment. on monday cosby resigned after 32 years from tempe university. this morning the national guard announced it is cutting back operations in ferguson. last week the grand jury rejected charges in the michael brown killing. brown's stepfather is now under investigation for his angry response that night. police say that louis head could potentially face charge of inciting a riot. ferguson has been calm for a week. the city remains under a state of emergency. outgoing defense secretary

charles hagel. ashton carter is up next. bill plante at the pentagon. with more on the man who left the pentagon just a year ago. >> reporter: good morning to our viewers in the west. ashton carter is the president's choice to lead the department. the announcement will probably come later this week. the white house won't confirm that carter is their nominee, only that he's on the list. but spokesman josh earnest praised him. >> he's somebody who has previously served the administration as the deputy secretary of defense, a position he filled very very ably. >> reporter: carter is a physicist who has held two top jobs at the pentagon during the obama administration. serving previously as the undersecretary in charge of the weapons program. though a civilian he's seen as having the confidence of the department's military command. as a defense secretary he would face complex strategy questions

about the fight against isis in syria and iraq, questions that humbled his predecessor chuck hagel. carter told charlie rose earlier this year that both nations need a political solution. >> we're not going to get a military solution to this. i think our advisers there, who are there, will give us insight, they'll give us some influence there, but that's the most important benefit of having them there. >> reporter: carter was confirmed unanimously by the senate in his previous job and would likely do well again, but ted cruz and other republicans questioned whether the white house would allow anyone the freedom to do the job. >> it says something that so many people are saying no thank you, i don't want to serve as secretary of defense in an administration that overrides the defense department that treats the secretary as subservient to political lackees in the white house. >> reporter: but carter's expected to be able to hold his

own in any clash with the president's inner circle. help has vast experience of the workings of the pentagon's huge bureaucracy. he'll be on top of that as well. best all for this white house, the fact there are signals from both side of the senate aisle that he can be easily confirmed. and major league sports are under new pressure from congress this morning to clamp down on domestic violence. officials from the top four professional leagues and their players' associations testified tuesday at a congressional hearing. nancy cordes is on capitol hill where senators expected a better turnout. nancy, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, that's right the top republican in that hearing was very critical of all four leagues for failing to send their commissioners. the nfl did send its vice president for football operations and he grew emotional while testifying on a topic that for him, hits close to home. >> i relate to the 20 million victims, survivors, of domestic

violence. >> reporter: troy vincent said abuse was a way of life growing up. his mother beaten while he and his brother watched. and admits the league made mistakes in handing the discipline of former baltimore ravens running back ray rice. rice was originally suspended for two games after punching his then fiancee in a casino elevator. the league made that suspension indefinite after video of the incident surfaced. just last week rice won his appeal and was reinstated to the nfl. >> we accept the criticism that we've received and we're committed to being part of this solution. >> reporter: the problem isn't isolated to football. vincent was joined by representatives from the nba, mlb and nhl, as well as their players' unions. each talked about what they are doing to curb violence off the playing field. senator claire mccaskill voiced her frustration that while individual teams have taken action against baseball players who were charged with abuse, the league has not.

>> major league baseball commissioner bud seelig has never sanctioned an mlb player for domestic violence. never. in 22 years. >> reporter: since the rice incident other leagues have gotten more proactive with punishment. the nba suspended jeffrey taylor for 24 games without pay in november after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge. and thenhl suspended a player after he was arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse. in a statement, the l.a. kings said this was clearly a mistake and it is incumbent upon us to be more vigilant in managing this situation. >> nancy, thank you. this morning the damage to sony pictures is far from over. the hackers took new movies like

"fury" and "annie" and leaked them on the internet and say some internal records were stolen. >> the data includes address, salary information and social security numbers. brian crebbs covers the world of cyberattackings. his new book is "spam name: the inside story of global crime." from global epidemic to your front door. good morning. welcome. what's the most alarming thing about this attack on sony? >> well i think just the sheer destruction of it. many companies are unprepared for something to come in and just destroy. when it gets -- when it gets to this level of maliciousness, i think a lot of companies are taken a little aback because some of these attacks seem opportunistic. this definitely was not. >> what can employees do brian, to protect themselves? they released some personal information. i understand on some of the

websites you saw shots of the executives with their bodies mutilated, that we can't even show on tv. >> right, some pretty macabre stuff. in short people can protect themselves by filing a fraud alert. you have to contact one of the three major credit bureaus and the one you contact has to by law, alert the other two. and that basically makes it so that anybody would tries to open new lines of credit in your name has to get your permission first. they have to call you. or you can file a credit freeze. there's a fee associated with this. 4 nobody can look at your credit report unless they get express opinion. >> brian, the theory is this attack was carried out by north korea in retaliation for this movie that sony is putting out. is north korea capable of such an attack? >> you know i think there are a lot of people who are really trying to figure out what exactly north korea's capabilities are on the cyber front right now. it's a little unclear. but we have seen attacks like that in that area before. it was last year i think, that a major bank in south korea had

tons of its systems completely erased. just like this. a lot of people pointing the fingers at north korea in that attack as well. >> brian, thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. it's 7:19. ahead, the nypd braces for another confrontation. new york's top cop bill bratton is in studio 57 to show us how his from the kpix 5 weather center, let's get right to. it's our hi-def doppler radar. it's picking up moderate to heavy rainfall at this time primarily across the northern portion of the bay area. but we have a fetch way out over the open waters ready to push onshore. east bay getting hammered as well this morning. bottom line is, occasional rain showers throughout the day today. perhaps potentially heavy. a chance of a thunderstorm with highs in the 60s. winds out of the southeast up to 20 and 25 miles per hour.

with us for an interview only on "cbs this morning." he also led police departments in boston and los angeles. welcome and good morning. tell me how you're preparing for this grand jury decision and whether you're informed by the events in ferguson. >> we've been preparing in multiple ways for months now. we've been conducting a period throughout the city with a concentration in staten island as recently as monday and we've also been tactically preparing for resources dealing with any potentiality. you hope for the best and plan for the worst. >> people in new york as you know were very angry about the eric garner case. i know you said you're prepared, but do you think what happened in ferguson could happen here? >> we don't app anticipate that at all. we had a major demonstration in the course of the summer. 4,000 or 5,000 peaceful march.

we've had no events since. it's a community working very hard to ensure there are no problems when the decision finally comes down. >> let's talk about the distrust between communities and police department. that's what we saw in ferguson. there is a lots of anger and distrust and after the michael brown decision came down you were splattered with blood on your face. how do you address something like that? how do you address what is that real anger and feeling by the community that the police treats them differently? >> the irony what we're dealing with in new york, is we have the people in the community living here and we have outsidage tarots here. for example, from utah. >> so he's one of the outside agitators who's seeking to take advantage of what's going on here. we spend a lot of time interacting with various communities in the city trying to build that trust.

it's quite clear in many communities we don't have it for a variety of reasons. >> you say they tended to ferguson to see how to deal with this. what specifically did you learn? >> we had teams of detectives there to one, take a look at who was there. there are quite a fewage tarots that were there in ferguson. none of those arrested were from new york. they're trying to keep an eye on them but also what new tactics might be employed by the professional agitators to gather what we could and bring it back to our experience. >> haveafter all you've done, what worries you the most? >> not so much the organized events but the disorganized the spontaneous, somebody who is not prepared for it that just all of a sudden starting acting up in the neighborhood at gets a few going on. their intent is to have orderly demonstrations. they don't want violence or

vandalism but it's the disorganized or the professional agitators of which we have no shortage here in new york. we've tracked social media very aggressively. we have watched very closely the demonstrations over the last couple of weeks of any new initiatives, any new ways they're trying to get their point across. we adjust their tactics to our tactics very frequently and try to anticipate to the best of ourability what they're going to be. >> there was word that they're going to train with body cams. what effect do you think that will have on the officers? >> i'm very supportive of body cams. we'll have a press conference later today around that and they'll be up and running the initial 50 by the weekend. i'm very excited about that. i'm a great supporter of technology and policing. thing it will illuminate a lot of the he said/she said where

they don't have video. it will be a good thing. >> i'm curious when you were splashed with the red paint, fake blood. you made light of it at the time. how affected were you. were you angry, scared, does it make you to rethink things? >> i was angry, but, again, no vandalism, no violence, no crime, and this character out of nowhere comes out and throws what we believe was some type of artificial blood, paint sub stachbls splashed myself and police officers and people standing by. totally unnecessary and fortunately he'll be very aggressively prosecuted. >> good to have you here, rikki klieman's husband. >> she's sleeping in hopefully. >> that's a good thing.

hole london. holly, good morning. >> good morning. some saudi arabia women have been demanding the right to drive now for two decades. we went to saudi arabia to meet some of the women leading the driving campaign and we recognized driving is just a symbol of much bigger problems faced by saudi women. this is an anti-government demonstration. the ultra conservative islamic state is the only country in the world where women are banned from driving because the government refuses to give them licenses. in protest, dozens of saudi women have taken to the wheel and posted the evidence of their illegal road trips on the internet. during nearly two weeks in this closed off kingdom, we were accompanied by saudi officials

to interview the women behind the driving campaign we left our hotel at night and met with them in a private house. madeha allage ruche is a woman we met with. >> police were in total shock. they thought we were women from kuwait or different parts of the world. we couldn't possibly be saudi women. saudi women are very quiet and they don't ask for their rights. >> reporter: she told us the biggest problem is the male guidance system. every saudi woman needs a male's approval to study, work and travel outside the country. what's it like having a male

guardian? >> it's like your life is in a box. >> reporter: in saudi arabia there's widespread segregation including in schools, restaurants, and even some banks. dr. this doctor is a scholar who said driving would pose a threat to saudi society. >> there are manyishes that will somehow affect the eun tigs compassion with women to go outside. >> women driving would be dangerous because it would give women too much freedom. >> i'm saying eewe're not against women but women are averse to this. >> many in saudi arabia would agree with him but other saudis find the ban on women driving laughable. ♪ >> this viral internet video

pokes fun at islam muslim ics who claim driving could harm a woman's reproductive organs. did you think it was going to go viral? >> no. we talked about it at first and that was it. >> reporter: yet in a country with it can dangerous he stressed his comedy has no political motive. >> it's like somebody said a knock-knock joke and a next thing you know a king is being overthrown. that's not how it works. >> reporter: but the women behind the driving campaign told us they believe change is inevitable. >> it's been 24 years. so it's the when. it's not that they will. they will. but when is the question.

>> reporter: there really is a divide in saudi arabia between those people both men and women, who want change and want progress on the one hand and then on the other, islamic conservatives who want to keep the status quo. and i think that this saudi government has not given women the right to drive is that they fear a backlash from those religious conservatives. norah? >> that's right, holly. that's my understanding of it too. although there is some in the royal family who would support such a move they're worried about the backlash from some of the religious conservatives in the kingdom. >> i hope that's true. she said listen it's the compassion. it's not the will. it's the when. great reporting. >> great reporting, holly williams. there's one place where women are gaining and that's on college campuses. from the kpix 5 weather center, let's get right to. it's our hi-def doppler radar. it's picking up moderate to
