ninan. >> i'm kendis gibson. of course, we've been talking about the big winter storm that is coming up. but d.c. had barely a trace and it is crippled even at this that is our big story. we're arting with the winter weather bearing down on the east coast. about 50 million people you mentioned will be impacted this weekend. >> but as you said, washington, d.c. already got a taste with a smaller storm during evening rush hour. the 1.6 inches brought traffic on area highways and city streets to a standstill. residents complained the public works department g got a l lat start on treating the roads and then its trucks couldn't get around all of those stuck cars. >> and look at this. the president's marine one helicopter was grounded. the presidential entourage had to drive back to the white house and even that took more than an hour. >> oh, my goodness. the limos and vans aed to the mess. but the accidents and problems were all over the washington area as this app showed late

all those red lines all the places whe there are backups and accidents. >> all those dots indicative of accidents in the d.c. area. tom roussey of our station in washington, wjla, joining us now. taup, good morning. how's it looking? >> good morning, kendis. unfortunately, it is still looking bad. evening rush hour essentially has not ended in the washington, d.c. area. the d.c. beltway, the big interstate that goes in a circle around t the city still a mess in many places. interstate 95 in virginia south of d.c. still a mess. other interstates throughout the area still bad, as well. slowly but surely things are better. but in just a few hours evening rush hour is going to bleed into morning rush hour. and at happened, as you said earlier, their crews were caught totally unawares. a lot of roads were untreated. even though it was a very small snowstorm, the cars drove over the snow, turned it into ice, that caused a huge amount of accidents and then firefighters and ambulances, they couldn't

get to the accidents to clear them. so it just turned into a giant mess. there are stories of folks who have been sitting in their cars for six, seven hours and have barely moved an inch. >> and yeah. >> this is something nobody really expected either. so they weren't prepared. people probably didn't have water and the things they would need to be able to sit in their cars for that long. >> yeah. >> they weren't prepared at all. i mean, everybody's been talking about the big storm that's supposed to be coming for the weekend and it's almost like people, including the crews that are supposed to treat the roads kind of overerlooked ts one. yeah, it's been an absolute mess. obviously if people had known this was coming, they would have left work early. nobody knew it was coming. p.m. rush hour hit and all of a sudden it t was the rst thing ever. this will go down as one of the worst evening rush hours ever around here and again, it's still nonot over. >> tom, this doesn't bode well. we're talking 1.6 inches that fell overnight or fell late during rush hour.

nearly two feet of snow that's expected in the next4 to 48 hours. >> no, thas what a lot of folks have been saying. i mean, if you can't handle a little over an inch, how on earth is d.c. going to handle two feet? i will say though over the course of growing up around here and reporting around here, it's always the ones that catch you unaware that are the worst. i've seen very large snowstorms in the past and generally as long as people h have ampl warning they stay off roads. this one is going to hit on the weekend mostly. so they'll definitely be staying off the roads. and also the crews are ready when you know about it in advance. tonight neither the people who dre regular folks or the crews were ready. i think that's why it was so bad. i actually think this weekend, hopefully, it may not even go as bad as tonight has. >> what a ss it is, even in the e early moing hours in the washington, d.c. area. crippled, people still stuck on highways there tom, thank you, my friend. appreciate it. >> and that really big snotorm

begins moving into that area later today and then wallops the rest of the east coast. >> let's get all the grizzly details from justin povick at ac accuweather. >> good morning to you. as we go throughout the next 24 hours, we will start to see our storm system off the southeastern coast really organize, pull back some moistu and within a very cold air mass, we are concerned about very heavy snow from southwestern virginia all the way into coastal portions of central new england. how much well, over a foot of snow florida excess of 18 inches the possible toward baltimore and also d.c. heavy amounts down interstate 81, as well with significant amounts all the way toward boston. the potential there of up toto 6 inches of snow and pounding surf, dangerous surf conditions along the eastern seabrd along with gusty winds, beach erosion possible, as well. kendis, marci, back to you. >> thank you. on the campaign trail, another day, another positive poll for republican donald trump. the new figures show trump with 34%.

any time using an image of trump and palin hoping to fire up her supporters. the question this morning is, will that be enough to surpass the surging bebernie sanrs? here's abc's ceciliaega. >> are you ready for a commander in chi? >> the clinton campan hoping to raise big bucks from that big endorsement. sending out this plea. donate to make sure this is nothing more thahan a bad nl" skit come to life. >> but it is no laughing matter for hillary clinton. especially with the new poll showing bernie sanders with his biggest lead yetn new hampshire. bill clinton right there the assessing the damage. >> we're on a home field disadvantage here. >> the implication? sanders from neighboring vermont has a leg up in the granite state. >> you've been good to me. you'u've been od to our family. i trust you. >> in a new ad, hillary clinton highliting her experience. >> the secretary of state who stood up for america and stared
