he actually crashed into a tree. >> ooh, but thankful he's okay. >> if somebody like that can control a car the way happen to >> there's what the roads look like in north carolina. what he was dealing w. the snow, ice, cold temperatures could lead to yet more trouble. ginger, it's getting dangerous out there in is it ever. just uncomfortable. baton rouge, louisiana, dropped to 14. that is the coldest in 29 years. you're looking at a frozen fountain in new orleans and check this out, guys. destin, florida, the gulf of mexico with sea smoke coming off. that's how cold it was. now, this morning, tampa has dropped subfreezing for the first time in seven years. so it does not happen every single winter. certainly doesn't always feel like zero in atlanta or greensboro, north carolina, at 1. the windchill is 1 where you are, marcus moore. and we are so grateful you are out there for us this morning. >> reporter: good to be here, ginger. good morning to you. the effects of this winter storm are expected to impact travel

again today here in this part of the country, and look at this. this storm dumped several inches of snow here in greensboro, north carolina. look how it's all around us and it has piled up high on the bushes, an incredible sight to see this morning and also packed along the roadways here and the highway patrol here in north carolina says they responded to nearly 1,600 crashes on wednesday. but this winter storm caused chaos across several states. this morning, heavy snow and thick ice to blame for hundreds of accidents across the midwest to the southeast. in ohio, a truck flipping and plunging into an icy pond. firefighters rushing to pull the driver from the water. >> they had to actually slide down the bank into the edge of the water and force open the door. >> reporter: and in georgia, watch closely as this car slides across the highway during a live report from our atlanta affiliate. police say treacherous conditions responsible for at least ten eddies including a louisiana fire chief and an

infant who was riding in a car when it slid off a bridge. >> if we can use this as a lesson, a reminder to stay out of the weather. >> reporter: from louisiana to tennessee to texas, homes in the dark and in the cold. officials saying excess draw from heaters proving too much for power grids. the temperatures plugging so low fountains turned to ice sculptures and streets were completely frozen over. this officer losing his footing not once but twice during a traffic stop and these four pickup trucks had to tow a semi up a hill. and dale earnhardt jr. couldn't escape these winter woes tweeting that he crashed after helping others who were stranded. and officials expect there to be some melting today here in this part of the country as the temperatures are expected to rise above freezing but only for a short time, robin, because those temperatures will then dip right back below freezing tonight so the threat of a lot of this snow melting and turing

into ice is still a real concern today. >> refreezing, okay, marcus, thanks so much. michael. >> thank i, robin. not just on the ground but in the air. this arctic blast is creating a real nightmare for travelers affecting hundreds of flights this morning and steve osunsami is at atlanta's hartsfield-jackson international airport and, steve, you're feeling the cold. >> reporter: it's bone-chilling cold with low temperatures in the teens and here at the world's busiest airport directly mind me is the big catch-up. all passengers on delayed or canceled flies will be coming to the airport today trying to get out and the weather is still impacting flights across the country. more than 400 flights canceled and more than 240 flights delayed and, of course, the big challenge is de-icing the planes. here in atlanta, it got so cold that delta air lines had to bring in their special de-icing teams from the tundras of minnesota to help out with the effort here. the great news for passenger, though, is that this is the last day of the big cold and we all

here in atlanta are hoping that ginger is going to be telling us we'll be in the 60s in the next couple of days but they're still warning passengers flying out today to make sure to call ahead and make sure their flights are leaving on time. michael. >> all right, thank you, steve. we hope ginger tells you and everyone else the same thing. >> we would take it here in new york. the latest from washington where the clock is ticking toward a government shutdown. federal funding runs out tomorrow at midnight. capitol hill and the white house scrambling to come up with a deal to keep the government running, so let's bring in jon karl, our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce. house speaker paul ryan hoping to pass his version but right now he doesn't have the votes. >> reporter: yeah, george, this is coming down to the wire here hoping to keep the lights on, republicans are now pushing to are a short-term funding fix that would fund the government for just one more month. but right now it's not clear if they even have enough republican votes in the house to get it done. even if it does, well, it's going to need support from

democrats to get through the senate and democrats are still holding out demanding that any spending deal includes protections for d.r.e.a.m.ers. george, we are now 40 hours out and right now congress is playing this dangerous game of political chicken that could very well end in a government shutdown. >> yeah, usually it gets worked out. no guarantees this time and, jon, the president himself a bit removed from this process. >> reporter: well, the white house has come out in favor of this short-term spending to prevent the government shutdown but the president is m.i.a. on this, george. as far as i can discern no calls to key conservatives that are opposing the temporary spending bill and one senior white house official told me, quote, this is not the president's fight. so we are a day away from a government shutdown and the president is not engaged in the battle to keep the lights on. >> not m.i.a. from the broader debate over immigration. negotiations over daca, border wall, whether mexico will pay

for it and the white house chief of staff john kelly made headlines when he said that the president's views on this during the campaign were uninformed and evolving and he was asked about that last night on fox news. >> campaign to governing are two different things and this president is very, very flexible in terms of what is within the realm of the possible. >> and mexico is not going to pay. >> one way or another it's possible that we could get the revenue from mexico but not directly from their government. >> jon, it appears the president did not like those headlines at all from his chief of staff up and tweeting this morning. >> reporter: absolutely, george. tweeting an extraordinary circumstance where the president of the united states is correcting his chief of staff saying, the wall is the wall. it has never changed or evolved from the first day i conceived of it. but, george, i went to those rallies and covered the campaign and he repeated so often that he was going to build this wall across the border and that mexico was going to pay for it,

that the crowds would actually finish his sentence and he would say who is going to pay for it? mexico. he didn't say it's possible we could get revenue from mexico but not their government. >> mary, in that meeting yesterday, democrats clear that they're not going to give the president anything like what he wants on the wall. they might do some small down payment for fencing but not the big border wall. >> reporter: yeah, lots of talk here of boosted border security but not a lot of talk from anyone up here on either side of giving the president funding for this big, buhl wall that he's been promising and, look, this just goes to underscore the frustration that so many lawmakers have up here. the mixed messages coming from the white house and all say they still need to know where the president stands on these broader immigration issues. >> no question about that. thank you both very much and no question, mexico has been very, very clear, they're not paying for it. >> what mary said, the frustration on all sides but mexico has been extremely clear about that, george. now to our abc news exclusive with apple ceo tim

cook. he sat down with our chief business correspondent rebecca jarvis to talk about apple's new plan to bring home billions to the u.s., create 20,000 jobs and, rebecca, the new tax law played a part in this? good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: yeah, good morning to you, robin. that's right. we're here inside of one of apple's massive datacenters where expansion is under way, 400 jobs on this site alone. your iphone virtually every service on it runs through a center like this and this team is working on the future home of the icloud. the $350 billion investment in the u.s., the company pledging to create 20,000 jobs over the next 5 years and increase spending on american manufacturing and education. >> this is where your imessages come. this is the facetime video calls. this is your photos. this is icloud. it's here. >> reporter: ceo tim cook exclusively taking us inside

apple's massive data center in re reno, nevada running on renewable energy. >> our clue is apple can only have been started in america and have a deep responsibility to give back. >> reporter: the new tax plan meaning they can bring back $250 billion in overseas profits at a significantly reduced rate and will write a check for $38 billion to the u.s. government. without these policy changes, would you be able to announce today the creation of 20,000 new jobs? >> no, they're clearly -- let me be clear, there are large parts of in that are a result of the tax reform and large parts that we would have done in any situation. >> you have been vocal in the past where you don't see eye-to-eye with the president. i wonder with the new tax policy, tim, is it fair in your

mind, do american companies get more than the american middle class out of this tax plan? >> we are not taking a position on the individual side. i think that's for others look at but on the corporate side i believe that we'll create jobs that will help middle class. >> reporter: the white house applauding apple's move. president trump tweeting, huge win for american workers and the usa. i also asked about those recent battery issues and whether apple was clear enough with its customers that it was needing to slow down some of those phones. tim cook, the ceo, told me that he deeply apologizes for the issues. he said maybe the company could have been clear enand, robin, he says that apple puts every user at the heart of everything it does. robin. >> always good to hear from tim cook. safe travels back home. michael. the new epidemic straining health care systems coast to coast. fears are growing over how quickly it's spreading and turning deadly and abc's

adrienne bankert is here with the very latest. boy, this is getting bad, adrienne. >> it's especially deadly among children, michael. according to the cdc at least 20 kids have died of the flu this season and this morning, millions of families are on edge watching for symptoms. michael messenger's mom noticed her 12-year-old son suffering flu-like symptoms during dinary and took him to the hospital. the next morning she found him frustrating to breathe. >> the only way i can describe the way he looked is he looked like a fifsh out of water tryin to breathe. >> reporter: he later died from what his family believes is the flu. >> the guilt because i'm a pom, i'm supposed to protect my kids, and i couldn't. i couldn't protect him. >> reporter: michael had received a flu vaccine and even though there is no official ruling on his death the medical community is bracing itself for how to deal with this epidemic that often has little warning.

thomas thom katie thomas was sent home with a flu diagnosis and 48 hours later was admitted to this hospital where she died within 18 hours and days earlier the mother of three and fitness enthusiast was ice skating with her kids. >> it just happened so quickly. >> reporter: her family tells abc news they believe oxley thomas had received the flu vaccine. >> we've seen record volumes pretty much daily and all hands on deck. >> reporter: hospitals overwhelmed and waiting rooms overflowing. >> this is what we work hard and train and what we're here for. >> reporter: the cdc doesn't keep track of all flu deaths. just pediatric cases and each case sorts differently so that number will likely go up again sadly. california's been hit particularly hard. san diego county had 51 new flu-related deaths just last week. let's bring in dr. allen hansen, the emergency medical director

of palomar. thank you for joining us. this year's flu is absolutely different than years before. why is that? >> well, what we're seeing is that the number of cases really has spiked much earlier in the flu season than we normally see, in fact, it really spiked just after the christmas holiday and we saw record volumes just right after that. >> there are so many cases coming in that you've actually had to bring in traveling staff to help you guys out. >> well, what we do every year we prepare for these high volumes and expect that. this year we plan to have 17 additional travel nurses that have come to help from all over the country and something we prepare for every year and particularly necessary this year with the high volumes that we're seeing. >> and we've been hearing about seemingly healthy people get sick and even dying from the flu and happening so quickly, so fast, why is that happening so fast? >> well, you know, it's not clear at this time why it seems

to be more virulent and infectious. what we are seeing is just higher volumes of cases and that may be part of it. really the freedom annapolis people that are affected are the young and the elderly with more medical conditions. >> what about the hospital workers? they're around the flu all day. every day. what are you doing to keep them safe? what kind of extra precautions are you taking with the hospital workers? >> so, the biggest thing is everyone is required to be vaccinated. and that is the biggest protection you can have but all the standard precautions with hand washing and wearing masks are the best thing we can do to help our workers healthy when they're working long hours taking care of larger number of patient. >> dr. hansen, thank you and thank you for the work you're doing out there in california to try to keep everybody as healthy as possible. thank you very much. and, boy, this epidemic is taking over. >> so serious. >> take precautions. >> we go to that sea rescue. we showed you at the top of the

stone. [ cheers and applause ] >> you look awesome. >> great to see you. >> thanks, lara. >> how are you? >> robin. hi, sweetheart, how are you? >> hello. [ cheers and applause ] >> so, can we just have a movement like you we want to dress for work. so fantastic. >> and the walk in, just so effortless. >> yes. look at me. i can walk. [ laughter ] >> hey, guys -- >> and you can act because this show -- [ applause ] this show -- it's on the verge of revolutionizing how we watch tv because the murder mystery that you can watch on your phone first. >> right. >> so tell us how that works. >> isn't that great?

i mean i think steven soderbergh is such a genius and always so ahead of everything. and when i went to work because we got the script only a week before so we were kind of not really knowing what was going to happen. we knew it was something interesting, this branching narrative you can get on your phone, an app, "mosaic" and when you get it, you first watch what essentially would be the pilot and then the next thing comes down and there's two and then you can choose like a family tree and you pick which branch you want to go to and keeps branching out. >> the story line changes depending which branch you take. >> because it's a murder mystery, the audience becomes the detective and you kind of help solve the crime. >> genius. >> and so as you watch it -- it's so cool. [ applause ] >> did it change the work you had to do or was your work the same. >> no, it did. the script ended up being 500

pages. >> oh, my goodness. >> so we had a lot more work to do because each thing, there's a little bit different nuance in our reactions compared to whose perspective. >> how they remember it. >> right. >> awesome. >> but you knew you were in great hands with steven. >> my god from "sex, lies and videotape" to all the "oceans" movies, he's so amazing. >> let's see some. >> thank you. >> i'm sorry. i know you probably get this a lot. >> i know. i'm a children's author. >> you might be the reason i became an artist. [ applause ] >> just asking sharon, that's

garrett hedlund. >> pretty easy on the eyes. >> yes, right back at you. your character is a little bit afraid of aging and that is in stark contrast to you as a woman. >> well, i'm pretty grateful to be aging. [ applause ] >> beats the alternative. >> right, right. so i just -- >> you've gone through a lot. >> i have and i feel like it's really great. i'm happy for every day. yeah. >> we are happy to have your son there on the red carpet with you at the golden globes. >> it was a beautiful experience. >> how was it for him? >> i know. look. >> he is doing so well in school and he got 100% in physics this semester. >> wow. >> can he come tutor my daughter? >> well, so i'm so proud of him. he's really been doing great this year and so i thought, you know -- >> treat him. >> he's very dapper by the way. that overcoat was game.

>> isn't that great? isn't that great? >> also picked quite a golden globes to bring him too. it was a lot more than pretty faces and pretty dress. >> there was that and i felt like that was a great time for a 17-year-old boy to experience something. i think that this whole movement this me too move many was something that was educational for him and he was proud to be there. >> you know, you've been powerful player in hollywood for over 40 years. how do you think this movement will change hollywood now? >> well, you know, i feel that it's not just a hollywood thing. i mean, movies represent humanity and the human condition, so i think that we're just trying to mirror what's happening on a global level and be respectful of it so we're hoping that more and more we're representing the fine example that is being set globally of people standing up for themselves and saying what needs to be done and this great thing that reese and ava have done

allows a legal fund to be built for people who need legal representation and i think we know that that needs to happen. so many rape kits have been left unprocessed around the world and i feel that anything we can do to provide legal representation that needs to be done is really great. >> yeah. [ applause ] >> so what other projects are you working on? >> well now i'm going in march to do a film that will be directed by a woman from scandinavia named eva sorehong and i'm going to play a heroin dealer, kind of a drug dealer. >> okay. i wasn't expecting that. >> but she's got a warm heart. >> i know. >> she does not. [ laughter ] she's a very tough woman who came up through the drug business and i feel with the

opioid situation as it is, it's a good time to take a good, hard look at what that is really like from the brutal look at it, and so that's what i'm doing next. >> wow, great. >> we can't wait to see that. >> yep. >> and "mosaic." >> "mosaic." >> right. >> wow. clayton mortensen. >> so, garrett will come back, you'll come back with one of your co-stars. you heard the reaction from the audience. >> it's wonderful. >> we tell our audience to put their phones away but when you said that they were picking them up trying to get "mosaic" on their foaps. go for it. "mosaic" premieres january 22nd on hbo. we'll be back. sharon will be back with her co-star and we'll be ri well. stay right there, everybody. there is garrett.

we're back now with some of our favorite dancing stars for the first time ever, two celebrity finalists are on the "dancing with the stars" winter tour, jordan fisher, and jordon's partner and lindsey arnold on the 71-stop tour. i've been following all the antics all instagram. i feel like i've been on the

tour with you. you were in new jersey, going from a show to a two hour show, you got to do it in front of your family. >> my entire family came, my grandparents, who are 90 years old. seeing the smiles on their face after the show, there's my grandma there, she was like you're going to be a star. >> reporter: this did it fore, nothing you've done up to this point, hey, it worked. jordon you've done broadway and done shows, but the tour is different. >> it's the first thing i've done where i am just dancing for an hour and a half now. it's crazy, it's a lot of fun it is the most fun cardio you can do with your friends every night in a different city. it's a blast. >> one of your good friends, lindsey, you're getting old, lady, 24. >> i know, right?

has he been birthday what did you do on the tour? >> obviously the cast was incredible, they got me key lime pie which is my favorite thing ever. >> we did an escape room, which was the best thing ever. >> i'm glad you're having a good time. dwans -- "dancing with the stars" live light up the night tour is touring across the country. let's get a check closer to home. >> reporter: colder out there and dry, we have a temperature of 20, high of 34. 42 tomorrow, 50s over the weekend. power trio at the heart of "a wrinkle in time." ava duvernay, oprah winfrey and

breakout star storm reed all on the cover, the february cover of "essence" hits newsstands on friday. michael and lara. >> thank you, ginger. we have some simple hacks to get your house in tiptop shape for 2018. >> yep, the one and only "good housekeeping's" lori bergamotto is here to help. some really creative solutions with things you definitely have in your home starting with ketchup. >> exactly. who knew? it's not just for burgers and hot dogs, right? so if you have any sort of tarnished copper, we'll show you how to polish it with ketchup and put a little bit on a rag. and then here we go. we'll take salt because you want to have abrasion. a little grit and then you just polish only copper works on. >> it could work on some silver but we like the way you can see the difference between the tarnishing. >> unbelievable. >> and the not

>> that's cool. what about aluminum foil for scrubbing? >> so sometimes this happens to me all the time if you make ground meat, you're like, oh, gosh, ion scrubbing brush to get all of that fat and stuff out. you can take aluminum foil in place of a scrub brush and put in a water and just start scrubbing away and you can see how it's clearing. >> no sos pad, no problem. >> everybody has this in their house. cost effective. >> it won't scratch. >> but thank you for bringing that up. you shouldn't use it on a nonstick pan because that has a special coating and also want to use dish soap to clean it once you're done. this doesn't clean the pan -- >> just loosens it up. >> do we need to finish it. >> no. >> this is if you have kids at home. >> yes, or not. if you're just a klutz like me, so this hack is to use a lint roller or bagel or bread if you

have broken glass or glitter so that's where the kids come in. i don't know. do you like to do glitter projects. >> yeah, i do them every weekend. >> you make giant sign, right? so what we're going to do, lara, do you want to help. you'll wad up this bread like this and start what -- if you want to do the glitter and i can do the shards of glass with the lint roller. look at that. you guys, what's cool about this hack in particular is that, of course, if you have big -- i know, it's very satisfying. >> if you have big pieces of glass you'll want to sweep or vacuum. this works because there's always those pieces that you can't see. so it's a nice and safe especially if you're doing it with the roller, safe way to get it. >> here. >> the key is don't eat the bread. >> definitely don't eat the bread. [ applause ] >> one of the big problems, my producer said she has this. pet hair. >> she has that adorable dog. >> yes. >> love that bruce the shep.

here's what we'll do with pet hair. you will take an anti-static have a with the "good housekeeping" seal static guard. you'll spray it on thetery. >> sorry, lara. >> i could use it actually. >> static guard. safe for everything. >> two for one. >> you'll take your glove and get it damp and then watch this. >> that's unbelievleh-h. >> wow. >> so easy, right? so easy. and, again, this is really satisfying. if you have -- this is upholstered. if you have anything silk upholstered. don't use a damp glove but use the glove as it. >> you don't want to stain with the water. >> i have many dogs. >> yes, these are great. so simple, lori. >> really simple and fun is this thank you so much. very simple, easy. coming up we'll have more with sharon stone and her co-star garrett hedlund. we'll be right back.

basis because you didn't know really who you were playing in that particular scenario. how do you approach that? >> well, the writer, ed solomon who is just so amazing who you would know from "men in black" and these great big hits and he's such a great guy. [ applause ] i loved ed. he spent time with us individually so we started to have some sense that he was going to incorporate a little bit of us and get our rhythm into it. >> right. >> so i felt safe and, of course, going to work with steven is just a dream come true. so i think you just surrender to the trust and, of course, knowing you're going to work-related with people like garrett. >> and sharon. >> we've become the yin and yang. >> you like working with sharon, though. >> all of us because we're so

passionate about doing this project, everybody was so immersed within that their character and role and everybody came to set every day so prepared and because we did shoot about 500 pages in ten weeks, cumulative if so we only did maybe one or two takes. so you have to come super prepared. >> yeah. so -- >> a lot of trust there. >> she played a character named olivia lake. this is the first time i'm meeting sharon stone. >> this is the first time i'm meeting mr., you know, "mudbound" and when he played johnny cash, that was it for me. >> he had us at jo >> were you also surprised -- you've seen the end result. were you surprised by what you saw? >> i was just so engaged. i mean, when you get this app o "mosaic" and throw itup, i was -- i watched it with several of my friends so we were all picking this narrative. you can select where you're

going and the audience is like the decorative solving this murder mystery. and so i'm watching it with my friends andary we like which way do you want to go and negotiating which thing to do. it was so fun and then two days went by. >> right, exactly. >> but this was three years in the making. >> yeah. >> all from start to finish. the time remaining, "mudbound," exceptional. how was it working on that film? >> thank you and wonderful. you know, it was quite brutal. the elements and everything in new orleans when we shot, some of the subject matter was quite tricky. i couldn't be more proud of the film, more proud of the actors i've worked with. more proud of the director. >> dee rees. >> and the wonderful crew she assembled and it was just -- i couldn't be more proud, it was wonderful. >> well received and so has "mosaic." cannot wait to see that as well. i love how y other. >> i'm proud of you.
