this is the "cbs evening news." >> axelrod: good evening. i'm jim axelrod. and this is a western edition of the broadcast. northern california and the pacific northwest are getting much-needed rain this weekend. the rain comes with a heavy price in terms of flood and wind damage. here's carter evans. >> reporter: that was a 90-foot pine tree in the berkeley hills east of san francisco. blown down by powerful winds up to 50 miles an hour. ken renworth says his neighbors were lucky. when you went back there and looked at it, what did you think? >> oh, it was incredible. i mean, it's a huge tree, and the roots failed. it's scary. >> reporter: while northern california got pounded with up to four inches of rain, the wind did the most damage, uprooting dozens of trees and bringing down power lines. over the past 24 hours, more

than a quarter million people were in the dark. electricity was restored for most, but flights are still delayed in san francisco. the national weather service didn't expect much snow from the storm, but the squaw valley ski area got 15 inches. it caught drivers off guard. >> the weatherman told us there wasn't going to be any snow so that's why we came totally unprepared. >> reporter: for many throughout the west, the massive storm was more than an inconvenience. in washington, west of seattle seven inches of rain caused the duck bush river to overflow. at least eight people had to be rescued from their flooded homes. >> wow, this is more than we've ever seen. >> reporter: and there's more to come, which worries residents like nicole black. >> this is only the beginning of things getting worse. if this rain continues like it's projected to, everybody here needs to get out and we need to make sure these banks don't fall. >> reporter: another storm is expected to hit tomorrow morning, but california is in the midst of a historic drought, so they welcome the rain here,

but, jim, they just don't like to see it all at once. >> axelrod: carter evans in san francisco, thank you. he's the chief meteorologist at cbs station wbz in boston. eric, what can people on the west coast expect the next couple of days? >> well, jim we're tracking yet another storm that's streaking in out of the pacific. you see it swirling right in here. this will be racing its way eastward, will move in sunday afternoon, will bring more heavy rain in. we could see several more inches of racism on sunday before it wraps up on monday. the red areas could see four inches or more plus very strong wind gusts and continued risk of localized flooding and mudslides with all of that rain, a tremendous amount, in a very short amount of time. we move to the other coast and it's the cold and snow that keeps on coming, snow across new york state and new england with winter storm warnings out. some places will get one to two feet sunday through monday.

anything in purple, a foot-plus local. all the while, you've got the storm in the west, the cold and snow in the northeast, and everyone else in the middle record high potential as we head into sunday. some spring fever from coast to coast. that's a pattern that really holds on into next week. the mild air in the west the cold air continuing to move into the northeast. jim. >> axelrod: eric fisher with a troubling forecast on both coasts. eric, thank you. now to the american woman who has been held hostage by isis, kayla mueller. isis claims mueller was killed in an air strike carried out by jordan, but the u.s. says there is no evidence of her death. charlie d'agata is in amman tonight. >> reporter: whatever the fate of u.s. hostage kayla mueller, there was no let-up in jordan's bombardment of suspected isis targets. the u.s. military released this video showing jordanian air strikes hitting weapons depots and isis training sites. jordanians called isis claims its air strike killed kayla mueller criminal propaganda. pentagon officials told us there

were no indications that hostages were being held there. isis has lied before. jordanians were led to believe their pilot, muath al-kaseasbeh, was alive after isis offered a prisoner exchange last week. abu mohammed maqdisi, a former isis ally only recently freed from jail had tried to help free the pilot. "one of the men i was in contact with was lying to me," he said. "they had killed the pilot. it turned out he was just a liar." the director of jordan's center for strategic studies dr. musa shteiwi told us the only way of reaching isis is through trusted side channels.ed >> reporter: they have people on the inside. >> they have people on the inside.

>> reporter: people that they trust. >> reporter: since the burningic to death of the jordanian pilot and the payback that followed, any trusted ties jordan had with isis have been severed. and although isis showed that flattened building, there's been no further evidence to prove kayla mueller died in that air strike. charlie d'agata, cbs news, amman, jordan. >> axelrod: in prescott, arizona, kayla mueller's parents are not giving up hope. julianna goldman has more on who their daughter is and how she was captured by isis. >> reporter: making a public plea, carl and marsha mueller said they're hopeful kayla is still alive. in a statement they wrote: >> another non-negotiating country -- >> reporter: they were referring to an isis video, part of a propaganda series referring to

the british journalist still being held. >> i have a selection of e-mails between the islamic state and families. >> reporter: he goes on to quote them directly, and it's among the communications they had with isis over the last 18 months working to free their daughter. >> i am in solidarity with the syrian people. >> reporter: 26-year-old kayla mueller was taken in aleppo, syria, on august 4, 2013 leaving a hospital run by doctors without borders. she had arrived the day before from turkey with her boyfriend who the medical aid group said was a technician contracted to perform repairs at the facility. they weren't expecting him to bring a friend. the two spent the night, and the next day, the charity said it organized transportation to the aleppo bus station from where they were to depart for turkey. they never arrived at the bus stop. her boyfriend, who hasn't been identified, was released some months later. it wasn't until may of 2014 that kayla's parents received their

first contact, confirming her captivity and that she was still alive. then in early july, u.s. special operations forces launched an unsuccessful rescue attempt to save western hostages near raqqa. they didn't find anyone, but according to a u.s. official familiar with the operation, evidence collected at the site included strands of hair believed to be from mueller. in august, the world watched as isis began releasing video showing the gruesome killings of its western hostages. a few months before she was kidnapped, mueller gave an interview to a local paper in arizona. she explained why she was helping syrian refugees. >> reporter: mueller had been in turkey since december 2012 working for two different aid groups helping syrian refugees. it's unclear if she was working

for any of them when she was captured, but, jim, at this point, that august 2013 trip is the only known time she went into syria. >> axelrod: julianna, thank you. in tense negotiations in munich this weekend, western leaders are divided as to how to best forge peace in ukraine. despite earlier statements from the u.s. that would now the rule out sending arms to the european ukranian government, german chancellor angela merkel expressed skepticism saying the conflict could not be resolved militarily. transasia is re-testing all of its propeller jet pilotsea following this week's deadly crash. pilot error has been cited by investigators as one cause of the accident which killed at least 40 people. three days worth of flights have been canceled to accommodate the tests. the measles outbreak that started in disneyland in december is not slowing down. the total is up to at least 155 cases now in 16 states. the latest to join that list new jersey.

the debate over measles vaccinations have been spirited, to say the least, and as jericka duncan shows us, in some places it's become downright nasty. >> i think it's ridiculous we can't discuss a public health matter that impacts children on a parenting web site. >> reporter: in a skype interview, heather crisp paley told us she used to be a member of the online support group mommy 2 mommy but recently she was kicked out. >> i feel like i didn't just talk about it but protest that it was a banned subject. >> reporter: since january 21, the mere mention of measles and vaccinations on the mommy 2 mommy web site has been prohibited. amy hermy started the l.a.-based group made up of more than 17,000 moms. she said she took down the nasty messages and images like this that were once posted on the group private facebook page. now there's a bright red reminder when members login that reads, "because of all the grenade launching from both sides, vaccinations, measles

shots, and all other vaccination-related discussions are not permitted in mommy 2 mommy. anyone posting about these topics will be removed from the group." >> since the measles outbreak at disneyland, we actually started seeing group hatred like i've never seen before. i saw people start to threaten each others' lives. i saw live death threats. i saw people suggesting that other members take a bag of dog feces and throw it at other people's houses. >> reporter: what is it about this particular issue that has mothers so angry? >> i think the vaccination is one is an interesting one because people feel that, you know, if vaccinations are not taking place, it puts their loved ones in jeopardy. >> reporter: she says there are other forums where's anything goes, but here, there are limits. >> if you're threatening the well-being of someone else or resorting to name calling or mom bashing so much so that other people are becoming uncomfortable, i reserve the right to ask you to leave. >> reporter: hermes doesn't know

when she will lift the ban. jim, she said she has received more positive comments about the ban than negative. >> axelrod: after several days of controversy, nbc news anchor brian williams announced he will be taking a leave of absence from the anchor's desk. earlier this week, williams apologized for saying he was aboard a helicopter forced down by enemy fire in iraq when he was not. in a statement today, williams said: he does say he will return. more business owners are turning into crime fighters sharing their surveillance cameras with the cops. former olympian turned reality tv star bruce jenner involved in aa deadly crash when this western edition of the cbs evening news continues. new aleve pm the only one to combine a safe sleep aid

the man on the ground is a 22- year-old. initially he was charged with assaulting the police, but those charges have now been dropped. the officers sean mcknight and kevin robinson, have also been suspended from the force. the use of private surveillance cameras in police investigations is growing, and baltimore is one of the cities leading that trend. vinita nair has the story. >> reporter: 10 years ago, this part of west baltimore lived up to its reputation. >> back then, the drug activity was open-air market. >> no, no man. >> reporter: the neighborhood, made famous by hbo's gritty crime drama "the wire," became synonymous with gang activity and violence, an image that bakery owner james hamlin has said has been hard to shake, even as the area has improved. >> perception is not the reality but as you know perception is the reality. so the whole idea is to change that. >> reporter: which is why hamlin

says he signed up for a new program that allows police to use footage from his shop's private security cameras. >> these are the different cameras that we have. >> reporter: hoping better surveillance will deter crime and help revitalize his street. >> the idea was to make folk understand that we can bring business back to pennsylvania avenue, and it can be safe. >> reporter: baltimore already has 700 security cameras across the city. it is one of several major u.s. cities, including houston, chicago, and new york, that has been steadily ramping up its surveillance system. >> we cannot have a police officer on every corner and we also know when we have cameras it gives us the ability to multiply the forces out on the street. >> reporter: mayor stephanie rawlings-blake, says the city's community partnership has the potential to quadruple the size of the network. participation is completely voluntary. police cannot access the cameras remotely, and owners can say no

any time. the american civil liberties union calls it little brother surveillance and says the involvement of private citizens actually provides insulation against government abuse. >> feel better, all right? >> eddie lewis has owned this pennsylvania avenue hardware store for 18 years. all 24 of his security camerase are registered with police. >> i hope they can, you know use my cameras and anything else i got to help, especially if it's helping to keep the community safe. it may save a life. you never know. >> reporter: since its launch in october, 26 people have signed up for the program adding 178 cameras to the streets. vinita nair, cbs news, new york. >> axelrod: bruce jenner, the gold medal olympian turned reality show star has been in plenty of headlines recently. this afternoon, one more. jenner was involved in a three- car crash in malibu, california. one person was killed. jenner was not seriously injured.

cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger is here. and i guess we would call this tip creep. >> reporter: yes, and i encountered this personally. i took a cab ride in d.c. a couple of weeks ago. $8 fare and up on the screen comes three options, a $2 tip. 25% tip. then i could do a $3 tip, or a $4 tip, a 50% tip. as a matter of fact, the new york city taxi limousine commission found when they looked at cash tips, 10% tips. credit card tips, over 20%. and i think we've also encountered this in a lot of stores that people using ipads and iphones with their applications up on the screen come those three choices and you you sort of feel like you have to pick one of them. >> axelrod: this is a system that seems to be almost preying on a customer's sense of guilt. >> and it has really evolved. folks at the emily post institute say when you went to a deli or cafe, people wouldn't tip. they had no suggested tip, and then it was really 15% or 20% in

a restaurant or bar, but i think it does prey on that guilt. its up on the screen and maybe we're too lazy to figure out 10 or 15% but we tend to push the button to alleviate the guilty. >> axelrod: when you go to a restaurant, tipping is sort of built into the system. what can you do about that. >> reporter: this is interesting. there are some restaurants where people are getting paid better they're getting some benefits in and in those restaurants they're saying no tip, they're going to include service, instead, kind of like their european counterparts. it's not widespread yet, but i think we have to take tipping into our own hands and reward good and not so good. >> axelrod: thanks for the tip. jill schlesinger, thank you. still ahead, bob dylan answers his critics with an epic speech when we come back. back. about a biologic... this is humira. this is humira helping to relieve my pain and protect my joints from further damage. this is humira giving me new perspective.
