that's like hunky keen. peachy dory is the new movie from pixar. it comes out later this year. >> this morning's eye opener is presented by toyota. let's go places. it would appear he got hunky-dory and peachy keen mixed up. but i think that's a really good way to describe how we're feeling today. because we're starting with great news. peachy keen, hunky-dory, all of it. welcome to "cbs this morning." norah is off today. we begin with some very good news. it's been a long week for a lot of people but this is fan of the ta fantastic. 13-year-old closs has been found alive and safe. she apparently escaped from captivity yesterday in

wisconsin. about 65 miles north of her home in barron. >> deepens the mystery over what happened to her and her parents. local authority will only say the suspect is in custody. adriana diaz is in gordon to show us how she was found. i know you were following this story from the jump. what amazing news. >> reporter: it is incredible news. good morning. half a mile down this road is where the search for jayme closs came to an end. neighbors here finally saw the face everyone has been looking for. >> this is jayme closs. call 911. >> reporter: those were the hened his door.r kasinskas he told us his neighbor had been pounding on it, standing with a disheveled girl. >> literally, like i was seeing a ghost, because we'd seen the bill boards and commercials and there she is in my kitchen.

>> reporter: he says his neighbor was walking her dog around 4:00 p.m. in this remote and wooded area when closs appeared. she immediately brought her to kasinskas home to call 911. >> she saw this girl saying help me, help me. >> reporter: closs appeared thin and legged, wearing what looked like leggings, a sweatshirt and oversided men's tennis shoes. said she was quiet while they waited for police to arrive 15 minutes later. >> she looked the same in all the photos. a little thinner. he just looked a little unkept, like she hadn't been able to take care of herself. >> reporter: according to the douglas county sheriff's office, 11 minutes after police arrived, a suspect was taken into custody elsewhere. >> i just cannot believe this. >> reporter: closs' aunt, sue allard, was overcome the teen was found alive. it had been three months since her parents were murdered and she vanished. james and denise closs were found shot to death in their

barron home. police received a mostly inaudible 911 call from denise's cell phone around 1:00 a.m. when rt though authorities arri minutes later, the front door was kicked in, the parents were dead and jayme was gone. for months police and volunteers combed the area for clues. but the tight-knit community kept the faith. over the holidays, they held a christmas tree vigil for closs. her family never gave up hope despite few promising leads. >> jayme, we need you hear with us. we all love you to the moon and back and we will never stop looking for you. >> reporter: kasinskas believes about half a mile from his. he described the people who live there as different and said they kept a low profile. police took jayme to a hospital in duluth, and she is expected to be reunited with her family later today. >> adriana, thank you.

i can't wait for the reunion. there are so many questions in this story. you know, it reminds me so much of the elizabeth smart case who went through unspeakable horrors and in the end she's okay today. she was missing for nine months. this little girl who knew the whole time that her parents were dead and what she'd be coming back to. >> and what she witnessed. >> exactly. >> you're right, never underestimate the resilience of a young person. it's so great she has her family around her as her aunt said, we have her, we found her. >> we love her to the moon and back. >> all those people who kept hope alive, you know, all those people walking through the fields, doing all the hard work of trying to find her and now that help has paid off. >> a lot of people looking for a good end. she is okay. i can't get enough. want to hear more of course. nearly 40 million americans are in for a snowy weekend as a major winter storm will travel more than 1,500 miles from the rockies to the east coast. lonnie quinn, chief

weathercaster of our new york station is tracking the storm. >> you look at the radar picture. we've got snow up in the rockies. but st. louis, you should be on alert because the snow's pushing in your direction. i believe you're going to be the bull's-eye for this particular storm. how much are we talking? keep in mind st. louis, your biggest snowfall ever has been 12.8 inches. that blue color is a foot of snow. the possibility is there. it's a record setter for you. for everybody on the west coast, let's look there. for you it's all about the rain coming on shore. today into tomorrow morning, look at this, top to bottom in california. you're picking up rain. maybe a little wit bit of a bren sunday. monday, tuesday, you're right back into more rain. wednesday, thursday, friday. this is probably the heaviest band of all. it's pulling down a lot of rain for 10 days straight. look at some of the numbers. san francisco, every day for ten days, you're picking up rain. for l.a., you'll pick up about 9.2 inches. all of last year, you picked up less than five.

an average year gives you 14.9. about two-thirds worth of a year's rain in ten days, john. >> all right, lonnie in st. louis. they need to make sure they got salt for the walkway and snow shovels. the partial government shutdown is now three weeks old. tomorrow, it will become the longest in u.s. history. federal workers who are not being paid are starting to hold protests across the country. the shutdown began over president trump's demand for billions of dollars for a border wall. paula reid is at the white house where the president might return from a visit to the southern border. >> reporter: good morning, that trip to texas is part of the president's all-out offensive to build a border wall but he has made no progress with congressional leaders over the past few days. it appears his only viable option may be to side-step congress. yesterday, he appeared to be laying the ground work to do just that, saying he is willing if we don't h ationalemergency. edbarrr, we're all wasting a lot of time.

>> reporter: as hundreds of thousands of federal workers prepare to miss their first paycheck today, president trump is at war over his wall. >> everybody wants us to win this battle. it's common sense. death is pouring through. >> reporter: surrounded by helicopters and contra band seized by border agents, he portrayed his nation as under siege. >> they need a barrier, a wall. >> reporter: federal workers need to put food on the table. >> we need our paycheck. >> reporter: across the country, increasingly desperate federal workers stage protests against the shutdown. >> hey, hey, ho, ho, this shutdown has got to go. >> reporter: even the president's supporters see no end in sight for the standoff. >> i have never been more depressed about moving forward than right now. i just don't see a pathway forward. >> reporter: a key issue for republicans, the president's mixed messages on would pay who the wall. he told this to john dickerson

three months after taking office. >> 100%? >> 100%. it's going to be happening. they'll be very happy to pay. >> reporter: yesterday, the president took a different approach. >> obviously they're not going to write a check but they are paying for the wall indirectly many, many times over, by the really great trade deal we just made. >> reporter: democrats won't give him taxpayer money for the wall, the president says he will exercise his right to declare a national emergency. >> i would say it will be very surprising to me that i would not declare a national emergency. >> reporter: doing so could allow the president to use unspent pentagon funds to start building his wall. but in the immediate future, it would likely keep lawyers busier than construction workers. democrats have vowed to file legal challenges in the president tries to do this and even if he prevails at the supreme court, he would likely face another round of legal

challenges from property owners on the border. >> there's a "wall street journal" report out talking about the infighting from the white house and about whether or not he should declare an emergency. >> just to remind people, the president's policy, as it was written down on his website in detail, the first thing, mexico will pay a down payment on the wall. so when he says he wasn't asking mexico to pay by the details of his campaign, he was asking mexico to write a check. >> yes, you remember that exchange -- >> i do. that was when he was president and they were chanting "build the wall" and he said absolutely mexico's going to pay for it and they're going to be happy to pay for it. >> such confidence too. >> we know we're about to set a government shutdown record that nobody should be proud of. >> the shutdown is also affecting airport screeners who have to keep working without pay. kris van cleave is at washington's reagan airport tracking the potential impact on air safety. kris, everyone is paying attention to this. >> reporter: good morning. tsa leadership remains concerned about a tipping point moment.

particularly now that screeners have received a paycheck for tipping point would be the moment when folks go look other places for work which would make it a lot harder to staff checkpoints like the one behind me. it's important to note the vast majority of tsa screeners have been on the job without pay. there has been a moderate increase in the number of workers calling in sick compared to last year. if staffing become as issue, the tsa will reduce the number of screening lanes which will result in longer lines and the potential of missed flights. miami international is prepared to close terminal g in the afternoon starting this weekend to free up tsa officers to work usier checkpoints in part due to sick calls. faa air traffic controllers rallied on capitol hill yesterday calling for an end to the shutdown. they're also on the job working without pay. one controller posted on twitter a picture of her pay stub showing zero dollars. the national transportation safety board can't investigate fatal accidents because its investigators have been furloughed. they can only be brought back if

there is a clear sign of an imminent life-threatening safety risk. bianna. >> kris, aside from the headaches of long lines, if tsa screeners don't show up for work, is it still safe to fly? >> well, tsa screeners don't show up to work, people won't be able to go through the checkpoints and they won't be able to fly. but the screeners have been on the job. it is safe to fly. air traffic controllers are on the job. screeners are on the job. >> all right. >> good to hear. >> thank you, kris. >> when i was at the airport last week, passengers were thanking the tsa screeners for being there on the job. you might want to think about that when you're flying. these people are there without pay. >> absolutely, that's absolutely right. now the fbi agents are urging congress to immediately fund their agency with the government shutdown now affecting critical security operations. nearly 13,000 special agents won't receive their paychecks today. in a petition, top fbi representatives warn the resulting financial insecurity could disqualify some agents

from serving. and lead others to find work elsewhere. the president of the fbi agents association spoke with our jeff pegues yesterday. >> people are upset, worried about when is the next paycheck going to come in. >> the federal law enforcement source tells cbs news the funding freeze could jeopardize undercover investigations. the source says morale, understandably, is horrible. meantime, more high-profile musicians are distancing themselves from r&b legend r. kelly. yesterday, the band phoenix said on twitter, quote, we are deeply horrified by the stories of abuse surrounding r. kelly. the band performed with him at coach chela and worked on a song with him in 2013. kelly denies any wrongdoing. jericka duncan spoke with his attorney. >> reporter: the three-time grammy winner faces a growing

public backlash and mounting legal pressure following the airing of the docu-series "surviving r. kelly." his lawyer told us the sex abuse allegations in the documentary were fabricated by people he described as disgruntled. >> it's a hit piece. >> reporter: criminal defense attorney steve greenberg says his client r. kelly has not seen the six-part documentary that's created a firestorm. >> he's disappointed that these women are doing this, that these families are doing it. they're ruining a talented musician's career. >> reporter: just so i'm clear, did you watch all six hours of this? >> i didn't watch one minute of it. i don't watch that kind of trash. >> reporter: so you didn't see any of this but you're convinced all of these women are out here trying to get sa minu15 minutes fame? >> i've seen snippettes of alla the attention of prosecutors in

illinois and georgia. multiple women said they were sexually, physically and emotionally aabused. >> brings back memories, very painful. >> there's absolutely no evidence what they're saying is true. >> reporter: on thursday, the band phoenix said they regret not knowing more about the allegations against kelly when they collaborated with him in 2013. and i-tunes removed "do what you want" lady gaga's duet with kelly the day after she declared she will never work with kelly again. >> look at lady gaga. now she wants an academy award so now he's a terrible person. >> reporter: do you think he plans to address the public soon? >> i'm sure he will. if nothing else, i'm sure he'll write a song and it will be a big hit. >> reporter: greenberg says no victims or police have contacted him about r. kelly. the executive producer of the series told us they never heard back from kelly's lawyers but that the women's stories speak

for themselves. yesterday, kelly's estranged daughter broke her silence on instagram, videscribing kelly aa monster and offering her prayers for his alleged victims. >> the more you hear about the story, the worse it is. thank you very much, jericka. in puerto rico as the tony award winning broadway musical hamilton premieres tonight on the island. david begnaud got a tour behind the scenes as cast members prepare for a three-week run. he's in door radrado. first on "cbs this morning." the actor, you may have heard is returning to his lead role as hamilton to help the island as it recovers from hurricane ma a maria. a lot of people very excited in puerto rico, us too. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we've been singing alexander hamilton for the last 12 hours since we went to theealastight. i don't know how cold it is in new york city but it's 75 and sunny here in dorado. we're here because this is where lin is having his first event on
