ie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. good morning, everyone. welcome to "today" on a friday morning. yesterday morning, we were standing out there with no coats. >> it was warm. >> nice. >> al roker said, change was coming. >> that's right. if this were a football play, take the snap and hand the ball to al. >> thanks so much, guys. we told you, if the system makes its way a little closer, in fact, we would see snow -- more snow along the eastern seaboard. portsmith, new hampshire, new york city and we have snow up and down the east coast. portland to washington, d.c., even raleigh, looking at snow.

system develops, it will be pushing in a lot of heavy, wet snow. power lines could come down. tree branchs coming down. 41 million people under some winter storm warning or advisory. here we are. 7:00 a.m. from norfolk to boston, we have snow. snow falling at rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour. it becomes windy. with the heavy, wet snow, we could be looking at power outages. around noon from portland, boston, warwick, new york city on the western edge of the system. as we move into the afternoon hours, it's a quick mover and it pushes its way off. as far as accumulations, heavy along eastern maine. into eastern massachusetts. boston, you could be looking at upwards of 6 to 9 inches of snow. providence, rhode island, 6 to 9. 5 to 8 in islip. new york city, 3 to 5 inches. the good news is it's a quick mover. it'll get out of here fast. we are watching something that comes in early next week, which may have an impact along the east coast, as well. >> thank you, al.

let's talk politics. the presidential race. hillary clinton and bernie sanders faced off in their most contentious debate yet. clinton accusing sanders of running an artful smear against her. let's start with the debate. nbc's andrea mitchell was there. good morning. >> good morning, savannah. with only four days to go until new hampshire votes, and on the democratic side, bernie sanders leading hillary clinton here by 20 points, the two rivals faced off in the heated debate. the stakes high for both sides. >> let's talk about the issues. let's talk about the issues that divide us. >> reporter: clinton and sanders in their most combative debate. >> secretary clinton represents the establishment. i represent, i hope, ordinary americans. >> reporter: the debate exploded in a fiery clash over her ties to wall street. hundreds of thousands of dollars

and his demands for campaign finance reform. >> enough is enough. if you've got something to say, say it directly. i think it's time to end the very artful smear that you and your campaign have been carrying out in recent weeks. let's talk abo the issues. >> what we need to do is to stand up to the big money interests and the campaign contributors. >> reporter: under scrutiny for paid speeches to goldman sachs and other groups, clinton ducked the question about whether she'd make the transcripts public. >> in full disclosure, would you release all of them? >> i don't know the status but i'll look into it. >> reporter: they fought over who is a real liberal. >> you can't be a moderate, you can't be a progressive. >> i'm a progressive who likes to get things done. cherry picking statements don't change my record. >> reporter: sanders talking about how he could lead the

>> i am running for president as a democrat. i want to see changes in the democratic party. >> reporter: clinton was pressed over the controversy surrounding her private e-mails. >> the american people will know it's an absurdity. >> reporter: sanders shug shrugged off his delegate loss. >> i have 22 and you have 25 and we need 2,500 to win the delegation. this is not the biggest deal in the world. >> in new hampshire, sanders is leading hillary clinton among women, and especially a huge lead among younger women. today, she is campaigning with women governors and senators. but she has not figured out yet how to inspire the younger women who are flocking to bernie sanders. matt and savannah? >> andrea mitchell, thank you.

their own debate tomorrow night. this morning, we have a new poll in that race in new york. new hampshire. we have a new poll on that race. marco rubio in second, closing in on donald trump. hallie jackson has that part of the story covered. good morning. >> good morning, matt. as marco rubio moves up, it's ted cruz slipping to third. today, even if he looks ahead to tuesday's primary, he's dealing with fallout from earlier in the week at the iowa caucuses. >> reporter: this morning, ted cruz is playing defense. dogged by claims of dirty politics, as breitbart news with these voicemails were published. >> this is the cruz campaign with breaking news. dr. ben carson will be ready to suspect his campaign following the iowa caucuses. >> reporter: the calls allegedly made by the cruz campaign, implying ben carson was dropping out. nbc news hasn't verified the calls but similar ones were made. >> please inform any carson caucus goers of this news and urge for them to caucus for

>> reporter: cruz said his staff shared an accurate story, that carson was headed home after the iowa caucuses. >> i understand that political opponents are trying to make hay and trying to misconstrue things. when you win in the state of iowa, your opponents want to tear you down. >> reporter: opponents like donald trump, laughing off what cruz calls his trumper tantrum. >> t tt'll good. i'll trademark it. >> reporter: looking ahead to new hampshire. >> my life is about winning. >> reporter: trump atop our new poll with marco rubio rising in the state. >> we've been working hard and feelelood about the progress we've made in iowa and now. i know this about politics, when everyone is attacking, you must be doing something right. >> reporter: facing fire from establishment rivals like jeb bush. >> my crowd sizes aren't normally this big. i wonder why. >> reporter: he's getting support from mother barbara for the first time since announcing

>> he's decent and honest, everything we need in a president. >> reporter: mrs. bush doing what moms do. snapping pictures and later snapchating. >> think he's going to win? >> you're darn right. >> reporter: bush's brother working to make it happen. >> i know jeb, i know his heart. >> reporter: george w. bush appearing in his first ad to air in south carolina. >> jeb bush is a leader who will keep our country safe. >> reporter: for bush, the race to the white house is becoming a family affair. >> the republican field is getting ready for tomorrow's debate. with the exception of carly fiorina. she will not be on stage. she's not polling well enough, according to the criteria, to be included. she's not happy about it, matt. she's even getting backup on that from some of her rivals. a surprising source, ted cruz and ben carson backing her up. >> hallie jackson on the story, thank you.

rachel maddow. they are here with us now. they co-moderated the debate on msnbc. congrats on the debate and i hope you enjoyed the 20 minutes of sleep you got last night. >> absolutely. >> with the debate, we saw a hillary clinton who was very aggressive in tone. do you think, chuck, she did anything to change the dynamic of this race, either in new hampshire or in this larger battle for the nomination? >> well, i think that's what she was looking at, was the larger battle. the clintotocampaign doesn't believe they're going to win here in new hampshire. but they're trying to sort of set the terms of the debate, put senator sanders on his heels a little bit. i tell you, it was clear, they had a plan and she was pretty aggressive at him. >> rachel, senator sanders is being very, very disciplined when it cocos to sticking to his game plan. he's saying, she's a moderate. she's tied to wall street.

continue to be effective? >> well, it's been working for him, at least in new hampshire so far. i think that saying this is all home state advantage between new hampshire and vermont is a little bit of a stretch. there's definitely a real phenomenon behind bernie sanders, and i think some is driven by doubts about secretary clinton. one is she's part of a corrupt system. it was interesting last night, she gave full voice to all of her criticicms to him. he never did exactly the same thing back at her. he made his case, and he spelled it out, but he didn't sort of -- he didn't go as aggressively at her in terms of his language on the stage. that was a form of discipline. i think both candidates did what they wanted to do but it was a different approach from the both of them. >> the moment of the debate seemed to be when hillary clinton said, you've been running this artful smear. if you want to say something to me, say it now and say it directly. how w es that play? does it make her look strong, or was the tone off putting?

it was interesting. certainly created audible gasps and boos in ththroom which, frankly, you can never tell in the room which side the audience was leaning, sanders or clinton. that moment, everybody stood up straight. i can tell you, savannah, in talking to t t campaign, that was a real moment. meaning, this wasn't like a planned idea, i'm going to accuse him of smearing the campaign. she sort ois like -- somebody described it to me, enough is enough and decided to o after him. i think the two of them might not like each other. >> remains to be seen. we didn't get a chance to talk about the republicans. we have several days left until new hampshire and we can accomplish that. chuck and rachel, thank you, guys. >> thanks. there are new clues this morning in the mid-flight blast that ripped a hole in the side of a passenger plane in somalia. explosose residue now discovered.

following the investigation. keir, good morning to you. >> good morning. a team of five u.s. experts have arrived to help with the investigation this morning. if it was a bomb, crucial questions include, who got it on to the plane and how? >> reporter: the force that ripped open this aircraft cabin was likely a aomb made of military grade explosives. multiple sources tell nbc news. the newspaper report of a suicide bomber in a wheelchair may not be accurate, according to a somali aviation official, who says they're awaiting test results. >> you have not been told whether explosive residue has been found? >> not yet. we do not have an official report on the team that did the investigation, that it is from explosives. >> reporter: he says the fbi has been invited to help investigate how some type of explosion blew a hole in the fuselage. if it was a bomb, who is responsible? somali is home to al qaeda and isis-linked militants.

was lax airport security a factor? where were the explosives hidden? a fafaure of the plane itstsf isn't ruled out, but officials believe this increasingly looks like terrorism. >> the man who was sucked out of e plane when the apparent exexosion happened has b bn identified as a 55-year-old. officials tell us that he does not appear to have been a suicide bomber which, guys, leaves more unexplained questions. >> keir, thank you very much. a lot of eyes on london after a panel ruled that wikileaks founder julian assange should be allowed to walk free. sange fought refuge in the where he escaped extraration to sweden where he faces rape charges. he has been detained by britain and sweden and should be freed.

xarelto is also proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there's limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. you know, i tried warfarin, but the blood teteing and d etary restrictions... don't get me started on that. i didn't have to. we started on xarelto . nice pass. safety first. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase y yr risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certn medicines. xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases, fafal bleeding. get help right away for 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 symptwms. do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heararvalve or abnormal bleeding.. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto , tell your doctor about any kidney, liver,

you know xarelto is the #1 prescribed blood thinr in its class. that's a big win. it is for me. with xarelto there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto ... ...was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto . we are back now. 7:43. the buildup and excitement surrounding super bowl 50. >> if you are lucky enoughh to vivit the host city, you will have p pnty to do. dylan soaked up the experience. she is into football. good morning. >> i certainly am. good morning, guys. i'm a little bit bummed that by patriots didn't make it this year. my excitement kicked in when i boarded the plane and joe namath was sitting a few rows away. he didn't know who i was, but i got to talk to some of the
