we'll have local updates throughout the morning. >> we'll keep you updated about the flooding system also. good morning. bracki ing braking overnight, fire on a casino boat off of florida. dozens of passengers forced to jump into the chilly water to escape. this morning, with an investigation underway, how the captain's quick thinking saved lives. absolutely unacceptable. the head of the fcc weighs in on that false alarm in hawaii. new videos emerging of the panic it caused. the worker that accidentally triggered it reassigned, as nbc news is given exclusive access inside the bunker where the mistake was made. on defense. president trump rejecting accusations he's a racist. >> i am the least racist person

you have ever interviewed. that i can tell you. >> this, as the war of words intensifies over what the president did and did not say about haiti and africa. all this, plus panic in the cabin. the terrifying moment a passenger jet skids off the runway and nearly plunges into the sea. the driver lucky to be alive after his car goes airborne and slams into a second-story building. and miracle in minnesota. >> pass is caught, sideline, unbelievable. >> the vikings shock the new orleans saints with one final play. a stunning ending and stunning heartbreak for saints fans on this monday, january 15th, 2018. >> from nbc news, this is "today," with savannah guthrie and hoda kotb, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza.

>> welcome to "today," everybody. thank you for joining us on this martin luther king day. craig is in for savannah. good morning, craig. >> we thought of you as we watched that game at my house. for saints nation. but what an incredible game. >> i want to redo the last ten seconds. everything else was perfect. congratulations to the vikings. we'll get to more on all that in a minute. let's start with the frightening scene in florida, a boat bursting into plaflames, people forced to evacuate, some into the water, on the coldest day of the year. kerry sanders has the latest on all this. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, hoda. sadly a spokesperson at regional medical center said one of the passengers on the boat has passed away. this was a shuttle boat that was

headed out to a casino cruise ship that inexplicably burst into flames. this morning, dramatic video showing the "island lady" casino shuttle engulfed in flames. the terrifying scene happening sunday afternoon, just off the coast near tampa. >> we're coming as fast as we can. >> reporter: authorities say just minutes after setting sail, flames started shooting out of the engine room. the captain turned the boat around, moving the boat closer to shore. >> we almost ran ashore. >> reporter: the passengers could jump into the chilly water and wade ashore. >> there were people that were just offshore, crawling on their hands and knees. >> reporter: nearby residents raced to help with blankets, towels, dry clothes and coffee.

>> people were cold, wet, scared. >> we took two people into our house and let them shower and, like, kind of get better. >> reporter: this is what "the island lady" looked like before it burned. a shuttle boat that would ferry passengers to the "tropical breeze" casino boat. a similar boat caught fire in 2004, and only three crew members were onboard. this time, 15 people were transported to area hospitals, one in critical condition. the rest, suffering minor injuries. it is that one patient who was in critical condition who a spokesman says did pass away. a fire chief at the scene is crediting the boat captain with actually saving some lives, making that immediate decision to turn the boat around and get closer to shore. had he been a quarter-mile out from where the fire began, says

the fire chief, it could have been a much different story because the water there is much deeper. >> that quick thinking paid off. there are new developments this morning with the investigation into that false missile warning that set off panic across hawaii. jacob z jacob was inside that bunker just hours before it happened. >> good morning. we happen to be here looking into what a potential response to a nuclear missile attack on the hawaiian islands would be. nothing could prepare officials here, residents, tourists, particularly us, for what that false alarm would be like. this morning, the investigation is under way how human error triggered a false emergency alert throughout the hawaiian islands, warning of a missile attack. the alert was sent to phones and broadcast to televisions. >> a missile play land on land

or sea within minutes. >> reporter: residents ran for cover, scrambling. it took 38 minutes to issue a correction, twice as long for a missile to reach hawaii from north korea. >> when it was realized that it went out, a cancellation button was pushed. that just stops the message from going out anymore. the initial ones already went out. >> reporter: the fcc chairman, ajit pai, is calling the false alert unacceptable. and members of congress are demanding answers. >> those responsible for this happening need to be held accountable, making sure this cannot happen again. >> reporter: president trump was at his florida golf club when the false alarm was sounded. he said on sunday that the federal government would look into the incident. >> we're going to get involved. >> reporter: the mistake was the result of a flaw in the early

warning system, put in place amid tensions between president trump and kim jong-un. hours before the mistake, we were given access to the bunker where the alert was accidentally triggered. david hafner works for the hawaii emergency management agency. >> this is where a call comes in that tells us if a nuclear missile is launched. >> reporter: this is where you find out? >> that's right. >> reporter: they drill constantly for when the call comes in. >> what's it like when it comes in? >> we're prepared to addresses. >> reporter: but the exercises couldn't prevent the human error. the military never gave the signal to alert the public. but it happened anyway. an erroneous double-click that sent hawaii into a panic it will never forget. new consequences on the island

of oahu. the worker who pushed that button has been reassigned. the tests of that early warning system have been suspended, pending an investigation. the real question is, how badly has this damaged the public's faith in this early warning system, particularly if next time it really isn't a drill. back to you. >> legitimate concerns. jacob, thank you. we're going to bring in jeremy bash with the latest on this. this had to be a terrifying 38 minutes. for a lot of parents, we saw parents putting children in manholes, that kind of thing. let's go from a national security perperspective. this was a mistake. but could a mistake lead to an act of war? >> this was a huge wake-up call, hoda. this is not the system that would detect an inbound missile or trigger the pentagon response. i'm worried that north korea could see an alert like that, think that we believe an attack

is imminent, they can undertake a military move and you have the sparks that could ignite a larger conflict. >> what do we know about north korea's country to communicate in a moment of crisis with us, or with their own citizens, as well? >> north korea's capability is very poor. if you think of the united states has the gold standard in terms of our systems, our capabilities, our technology, and even we made this critical mistake, think how much of a mistake could happen on the north korean side. when we are at hair-trigger alert and the tensions are so high, that's when mistakes happen. that's when you can have an accidental conflict. a lot more to get to this morning. including president trump defending himself after being accused of using racist, vulgar language to describe haiti and african nations during a recent meeting on immigration. that controversy not going away anytime soon.

peter alexander is at the white house. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. this is a stunning national conversation on the martin luther king holiday over whether the president of the united states is a racist. after three days of fierce criticism from around the world, president trump is denying he made the inflammatory comments and attacking democrats for threatening key issues like efforts to protect hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants. president trump defending himself. >> no. i'm not a racist. i am the least racist person you have ever interviewed. that, i can tell you. >> reporter: the president publicly pushing back in an escalating war over his words. >> can you see what various senators said about my comments. he was amazed. >> reporter: president trump talking about two republican senators in an oval office meeting where the president was said to have used a vulgar term

to describe two nations. >> it's a gross misrepresentation. >> i didn't hear it. i was sitting no further away from donald trump as dick durbin was. perhaps we shouldn't be surprised by that. >> reporter: a durbin spokesman hitting back. credibility is managsomething t built over time. senator durbin has it. the senators' remarks contradict their initial reaction, last friday, saying they did not recall the president saying these comments specifically. and they seem to dispute lindsey grah graham's account. where he said, the headlines were basically accurate. it's reopening the debate about the president's views. >> i think he is a racist. >> reporter: rand paul disagr disagrees. >> you can't have an immigration compromise if everybody is

calling the president a racist. >> reporter: sunday night, the president out to dinner, blaming his opponents for the lack of any immigration deal. >> i don't think the democrats want to make a deal. they don't want to help the daca people. >> reporter: the daca people, presumably a reference to d.r.e.a.m.ers. president trump demanding more money for boarding protection, including his long-promised wall. jeff flake, with msnbc's kasie hunt, not backing down with his criticism of the president. giving a preview of a speech that he called the enemy of the people. >> he used that phrase, popularized by joseph stallen, used by mao, as well, enemy of the people. >> reporter: the president's rhetoric is being adopted by autocrats around the world. no public events this martin luther king holiday. he returns home tonight just

five days until a government shutdown, unless lawmakers can come up with a spending deal. hoda and craig? >> peter alexander from the white house. thank you. north and south korea have resumed what have been historic talks between the rivals the and this latest round could lead to history being made at next month's winter olympics. bill neely is in seoul, with the latest. hi, bill. >> reporter: good morning, hoda. a second round of talks today, narrowly focussed on music. one of the four north korean delegates is the leader of an old female pop band, that was wildly popular in north korea. and they discussed popular concerts during the olympics of that band. they're all members of the north korean military and they sing songs in braise of kim jong-un. i don't know how well that will go on here. they did agree that a north korean orchestra of 140 will

play here at the olympics. on wednesday, there will be a third round of talks to talk about the athletes and the de delegation and a historical idea, a united women's ice hockey team. other issues, how they'll cross into north korea, into south korea, how they'll be accommodated and so on. these talks are at a delicate stage. and north korea annoyaned at th message from south korea. north korea making a statement, we're here of our own free will, not because of american pressure. more talks on wednesday. >> thank you so much. tens of millions are dealing with the return of much colder temperatures and a threat of dangerous winter weather. dylan is in for al this morning. >> you should be happier when

you see me. >> let's look at the snow moving through chicago right now. it's a clipper system that's fast moving. it will introduce a messy morning commute and will move eastward quickly. we have winter weather advisories and winter storm warnings through texas. it's very cold. the bridges and overpasses will be slippery. we have this threat of possibly sleet through central texas. here's the front. you can see how quickly it's moving eastward. it exits chicago, hoomoves into pittsburgh. we have sleet possible in san angelo and into houston. that fizzles out. in the northeast, a lot of snow on tuesday, again. up across new england, we could see four to six inches. through most of the midwest, we're looking at one to two. just enough to make it slippery on the roads. on this busy monday morning,

there are few fears over the flu. the virus is now widespread in every state except hawaii. this season is shaping up to be three-times worse than last year's. gabe gutierrez is at the cdc in atlanta. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this year's dominant flu strain is dangerous for children and the beelderly. there's been six-times as many pediatric deaths this flu season compared to the same period last year. this morning, the flu epidemic is hitting children especially hard. jonah near dayton, ohio, was just 4 years old. >> one of the most difficult things i've ever had to do was tell my other children on saturday morning that their little brother was not coming home. >> reporter: the cdc is reporting 20 pediatric deaths so far this season, compared to 3 at the same time last year. in houston, texas children's

hospital saw 17-times as many flu patients last month as it did the previous december. this woman's son got sick even though he had gotten the flu shot. >> the flu hit him so hard. >> reporter: the cdc says the flu is widespread in 49 states. alabama's governor has declared a public health emergency. in mississippi, 100 nursing homes have declared fluo outbreaks. >> you can tell we do not have the staff to keep up with the volume. >> reporter: to protect ourse yourself, avoid contact with sick people. take antiviral drugs if your doctor describes them. most importantly, get that flu shot. >> we know about 70% to 80% of children that die aren't vaccinated. vaccine really has been proven to prevent 50% of flu deaths. >> reporter: some states are

reporting spot shortages of the antiviral medication tamiflu. but the cdc says there's enough supply to go around. doctors say the flu season is peaking right about now. but there's 11 to 13 weeks left. craig and hoda. >> gabe, thanks so much. now, to the incredible finish in that nfl playoff game between the vikings and the saints. are you okay? >> i'm okay. >> the party is still going on in the twin cities. the saints, down by two. they take a one-point lead on this field goal. that left just 25 seconds on the clock. not much time to do anything. the game's pretty much over. take a look at what the vikings did on the last play of this game. >> steps into it. the pass is caught. sideline, touchdown.

shelters and bunkers that haven't been put to use for a generation. we were inside the bunker within diamond head crater, by happenstance, by coincidence, here on assignment, to see what the system looks like in event of a missile attack. this just went horribly, terribly wrong. there was no call from u.s. pacific command warning of a strike. it was an inadvertent double-click of a button during a routine shift change that caused the chaos. the consequences are coming down very swift. the person who pushed that button has been reassigned. the system has been suspended, as well. nerves here are rattled of the people of hawaii, of the tourists here. they want to have confidence in that system going forward. the question is, will they? back to you. >> jacob, thanks so much. one person is dead after a casino ferryboat burst into flames overnight near tampa,

system spread to the east, through the day today, moving into ohio and into the pittsburgh area. overnight, it starts to spread through upstate new york, and pennsylvania. appalachians will start to see some snow. on wednesday, we'll get moisture coming in off of the east coast. that's -- or off the atlantic. that's going to pump up some of the snow for the east coast. 6 to 9 inches in this little strip across wisconsin. most areas, 1 to 2 inches. because of that enhancement from the coastal storm, we could see 4 to 5 inches, some areas across the higher elevations in massachusetts and vermont, could see closer to 6. temperatures, talk about some place warm, in the southwest, we're going to see much above average temperatures. reno should be 16 good morning. i'm meteorologist, bill henley. a cold day today. clouds, some breaks of sunshine. martin luther king day planner shows temperatures in the low 30s in philadelphia by 1:00 this afternoon. but it is 20s for the suburbs

"first impressions today." >> you never get a second chance to make a good one. here's a question -- how do you do that? and how exactly are first impressions formed? sh sheinelle jones? >> scholars have been researching first impressions for centuries. we can make up our mind about a person in a second, before they say a word. we are speaking to people we meet before we open our mouths. as perfect strangers seize on what they see. >> usually the smile and the eyes. >> if they're frowning. if they're smiling. >> eyes will tell you everything you need to know about someone

normally. >> reporter: we speak with our eyes, our hands, our posture. we're making an impression and it might not be the one we want to make. >> it's about the state at the moment. >> reporter: he wrote the book on first impressions. he says we make snap judgments all the time, based on someone's face. sometimes in less than a tenth of a second. >> this is sufficient for people to make up their minds and make up all kinds of judgments, whether you're trustworthy, competent, whether you're aggressive. >> reporter: judging a person's character based only on facial appearance is nothing new. some credit aristotle with writing the first book about it. leonardo da vinci responded with faces and the reaction to them. which face is warm? which face is trustworthy? it's interesting that a lot of people seem to pick the same faces.

how do you explain that? >> there's two interesting facts about first impression from facial appearance. the first is that we form this incredibly rapidly. and the second is, they're kind of shared. we agree. and this is to a large extent, we've been trying to figure out, what is behind the shared agreement. >> reporter: he demonstrates how his studies work. participants are shown computer generated faces, with only a moment to decide whether the face is trustworthy or not. much of it has to do with the shape of the eyes, eyebrows and mouth. and studies using these computer generated faces, participants agreed on what they find trustworthy as much as 75% of the time. this research has been seized on by advertisers and political campaigns, to get a better edge. we want to find out how to help the average person, for a face-to-face meeting. for that, we turned to amy,

whose ted talk has been viewed 44 million times. she's the author of the book "presence." >> you walk into a room and are you judging yourself? >> you are judging yourself. that's an interesting question. you are judging how you're performing. you're starting to think about that. that's distracting. and that is then affecting your performance. >> reporter: she says the research on first impressions and body language is evolving. but she says establishing trust is key. >> trustworthiness is the most important quality. is this person friend or foe? >> reporter: how can you make your best impression? be in the moment and be strong. >> do not allow yourself to shrink. instead, fight that urge to go like this, what you're doing is protecting yourself like a scared animal. instead of collapsing, that's when you want to slow down your breathing, pull your shoulders back, stand up straight. you're carrying yourself in a way that's powerful and proud.

i tell people to not manage the immaterial presentation they're making on others but to focus on the impression they're making on themselves. >> reporter: that goes back to how we see ourselves and the impressions we hope to make. >> i hope to be friendly and kind. >> someone who's hardworking and dedicated, happy, well-rounded person. >> how happy i am. >> so, listen to this. cutty says in her experience, impression management techniques don't work very well. it's best to do what your mother said, be yourself. and we talked to the top experts in the country. while we agree on our first impressions, that doesn't mean they're accurate. it can be a self-fulfilling prophe prophecy. if you act nicely, people will treat you nicely. we went to the ivy league schools. it's what you learned in preschool. you walk in proud. you look somebody in the eye. you seem carefree, people will

treat you the same way. >> we saw you good morning. i'm dray clark. 8:26 this monday morning. an ice jam is causing a flood threat along the delaware river in mercer and bucks county. bill henley has details. >> slowly rising waters there. it looks like it is going to peak about half a foot above flood stage. that's enough to cause some problems. a flood warning in effect for yeardley, morrisville, trenton. minor floodings in these locations is likely today. we have plenty cold today. the wind is blowing to make it feel colder. it feels like 6 in philadelphia, northeast philadelphia, pottstown, 11 in atlantic city and 3 in allentown. mostly cloudy and cold. >> let's get a check on traffic

with jessica boyington. we are watching 295 and our cameras moving through bellmawr around route 168. not seeing any problems there. traffic is super light because it is a holiday as well. back to the flooding conditions, there are properties in trenton. route 29, the southbound ramp to market street, is actually closed until further notice. >> today, volunteers will honor the legacy of dr. martin luther king jr. former vice-president, joe biden, will speak at the delaware state bar in wilmington. afterwards, members of the bar will participate in community service projects. we will have another update coming up in 25 minutes. you c you can get the latest news and weather by tapping on the nbc news app. i'm dray clark. have a great day!
