it's wednesday, november 27th, 2024. this is "cbs news mornings." breaking overnight, a first step toward peace in the middle east

as a cease-fire between israel and hezbollah takes hold. first, the thanksgiving rush home. millions of americans hitting the roads, the rails, and the sky for the record-setting holiday getaway. but will the weather cooperate? good morning. i'm michael george. well, if you waited until today to head out of town for the holiday weekend, don't worry, you'll have plenty of company. in fact, this afternoon between 1:00 and 5:00 p.m. will be the worst time to drive according to transportation analytics company inrix. as for the airports, the tsa expects to screen three million passengers today. and united airlines is blaming an faa shortage of air traffic controllers for causing flight delays at its newark, new jersey, hub. cbs' jarred hill joins us from laguardia airport. what can thanksgiving travelers expect today? >> reporter: one of the things they can expect is a lot of company.

there are expected to be about 80 million or so people traveling at least 50 miles from home. that's according to aaa, this thanksgiving holiday weekend. there's an interesting increase in one mode of transportation. in the final dash to thanksgiving dinner, it's not the stuffing that's steering travelers through busy roads and crowded airports. >> it's family. that's what makes it worth it. family being together. >> reporter: aaa expects more than five million americans to fly this week. some headed out tuesday to beat the wednesday rush, what tsa estimates will be the busiest day to fly before thanksgiving. >> i feel like it hasn't gotten really busy yet. >> i expected to see a whole bunch of lines, but i'm very pleasantly surprised. >> reporter: tsa is expected to screen 2.9 million passengers today alone at airport around the country. the faa warns that a shortage in air traffic control workers could cause delays in places like new york. on the roads, near boston traffic moved at a snail's pace. one person calling the commute

painful. >> this holiday's worse than any other. >> reporter: aaa says most people will drive to their destination, with narly 72 million americans expected to get behind the wheel. meanwhile, amtrak says it's seeing an uptick in passengers who prefer to ride the rails. >> you got very spacious seats, a lot of leg room. it's just an easier way to go than sitting in highway traffic or flying. >> reporter: smooth sailing for most travelers so far, though heavy snow in colorado has already snarled highway traffic. there some good news for drivers. according to aaa, the national average price for a gallon of regular is just over $3. in more than two dozen states that average drops below $3. and again, just a reminder that the faa administrator has said they would likely use some special measures to deal with the shortage of air traffic controllers which could mean delays even if the weather and the mechanics and all that other stuff is going well. >> at a very busy laguardia

airport. thanks. as mentioned the snow in colorado is definitely making travel more treacherous. that snowstorm in the rockies will bring rain across the plains and midwest today. by this evening, expect wet roads from ohio to mississippi. thanksgiving day is a rainy parade in new york city and snow will likely develop over interior areas of the northeast. black friday shoppers will need to bundle up with an arctic blast from the midwest to the east coast. now to the breaking developments out of the middle east where we are now hours from a cease-fire between israel and hezbollah. all appears calm as you can see in this shot from lebanon. it's the first big step in ending 14 months of cross-border fighting. hezbollah started firing rockets into israel the day after hamas' october 7th attack. moments after the cease-fire started, some gunshots were

heard and projectiles were shot in the sky over beirut in an apparent celebration. the question is will the truce hold? cbs' debora patta reports from east jerusalem. >> reporter: the guns fall silent or at least that's the plan. >> i applaud the courageous decision made by the leaders of lebanon and israel to end the violence. it reminds us that peace is possible. >> reporter: the u.s.-brokered deal has been approved by israel's cabinet. but if hezbollah violates the cease-fire and tries to rearm, prime minister benjamin netanyahu said we will attack. under the agreement, the cease-fire will last 60 days during which israeli troops will withdraw from lebanon, and in return hezbollah will retreat all the way back north of the litani river with lebanese troops and u.n. forces keeping the peace. in the final hours before the

cease-fire takes hold, israel has tried to inflict maximum punishment, striking across lebanon. and in northern israel, sirens sounded as hezbollah launched multiple rocket attacks, most were intercepted. the two sides have been trading fire for over a year, but it escalated into an all-out war over two months ago. first the exploding pager attacks in lebanon which killed dozens and wounded more than 3,000 people. then israel's relentless bombing campaign and the assassination of hezbollah's leader as well as other senior commanders. nearly 120 people have been killed in israel. in lebanon the death toll is far higher, close to 4,000 lives have been lost. for those caught up in this conflict, a cease-fire cannot come soon enough. debora patta, cbs news, east jerusalem.

>> this is our hardware section. 95% of this comes from china. >> reporter: what about canada and mexico? what about some of those? >> some of these bulbs come from mexico, but a lot of them come from china. but a lot of the cleaning supplies come from mexico. that would affect your everyday customer. >> reporter: the three countries targeted are america's three largest trading partners. last year all together they accounted for $1.3 trillion in imported goods. china is key for items like electronics and furniture. mexico for produce and plastics. canadian exports include aluminum and lumber. for example, analysts predict the average price of a car coming from canada or mexico could increase as much as $3,000 with a 25% tariff. debbie warned retailers like amazon can keep prices lower because of their size. as a small business, she could lose those buyers forever. >> if they look at the prices here and if we're not pretty even with those competitors,

they won't buy. >> reporter: one argument for tariffs is leverage. there's a key trade deal with mexico and canada up for review in 2026. leaders of these nations warn a trade war could hurt everyone, but both the canadian prime minister and the mexican president have indicated a willingness to talk. kelly o'grady, cbs news. millions of americans could get access to popular weight-loss injectables if a $35 billion proposal from the biden administration is approved by president-elect donald trump. the rule unveiled tuesday would require medicare and medicaid to cover the drugs like ozempic and wegovy. it's unclear if it would have support from the new administration. coming up, rudy giuliani's courtroom outburst. what the former mayor is saying about his defamation payout. and story of survival. a plane carrying rescue dogs goes down, and two of the pups are found alive.
