i mean, look at the winds here in chatham, we'll go from 50 miles an hour winds to possibly 75 miles an hour winds, that is why they call these winter storms mother nature's hurricane. and that is just what it lives up to. tomorrow, the sun will come out but not before pounding the area with the winter storm. the second major nor'easter, back to you. >>> we'll let you get out of it, jim cantore. >>> sharing the miserable weather battering the midwest is great britain, described as having the worst round of weather in 250 years. take a look, this incredible satellite photo shows the latest storms in the u.s. and the u.k. linked by a sweeping band of clouds in the north atlantic. mike taibbi has our report from london. >> reporter: surging wind-whipped seas, torrential rain, or both. one official said a conveyer belt of storm system since the first of the year has made this the wettest, most dangerous winter on record. overnight, this woman was killed at the wheel after a crash. a monster wave crashed on a cruise ship killing a passenger. and people were rescued from a restaurant when

ron allen there on the road in chatham, new jersey.we did lose his audio, but we have his video and can get a sense there the roads, got some blacktop, however, it is expected to be a little bit of an issue for the rest of the day. and if we are able to rejoin ron, of course, we'll get that to him. >>> the question, 6,000 or several billion years. it's the battle between the bible and science. first of its kind debate that took place last night between one of the country's most ardent defenders of creationism and a renowned science educator, bill nye, tv's science guy took the stage next to ken ham inside the creation museum, which ham founded. the two, which debated the age of the universe and evolution, found little common ground. >> the bottom line is that as a christian, i have a foundation, but as a christian, i would ask bill a question, what would change your mind? i mean, you said even if you came to faith, you'd never give up believing in billions of years. >> we would need one piece of evidence, a fossil that swam from one la

snow for boston down through the cape, maybe even toward audio most of rhode island and then all of chatham like. let me show you how this develops. it caught everybody off guard. we don't expect them to bomb right here unless you have a big dip in the jet stream. we're not seeing a lot of snow for new york or for any place here that saw a lot of snow, just literally down east in e into nova scotia, newfoundland and into boston. big, big snow is possible with blizzard warnings, we could see winds of 50 miles per hour. here comes the snow there you see new york. snow in the poconos but the biggest snow will be right along the cape. if this thing decides to go farther left, we could get more snow. farther to the west we'll have to see. right now that doesn't look like the case. it will be out of there by late saturday night. >> chad, you just heard brian talking about the weather extremes we've been seeing. what do you make of these? >> it's all about what we call amplitude. the jet stream all winter has gone farther north than it usually does and farther south than it usually does. for a nor

so the chatham area, the plymouth where i was two weeks ago is the area that should get most of the snow. new york city with this model in the clear. one other model says by tomorrow night into sunday morning, new york gets five inches it of new snow. so the computers are just not agreeing on this one yet. the great news is the weekend. >> great news so the kids can't get snow days again. we'll focus a lot on the east coast. but there is weather out west, as well. >> certainly is. and we'd like to have more weather in the southwest where the growing season is maybe not even going to happen. but this is the next storm. there's a low coming on shore and it's going to make snow in the higher elevations east of seattle all the way down the cascades through boise back to jackson hole. 20 inches of snow. but where they want it, the snow is where you want to ski in it, where they want to go play in it and need the moisture because there's a huge drought going on out here. there is no rain, no snow, california and into the san n - joaquin valley that has been dreadfully dry. >> back out east in

joining us from chatham house. how would you analyze the situation?ive and a negative. on the one hand, we did have a truce overnight, that truce is clearly broken. things have escalated, there is violence on the ground, the numbers we are hearing, 28 dead and many injured, those are going to go up. hours ago.a few you had europeans sending in delegations to ukraine to talk to yanukovych. that, nowow been told been canceled. you have the europeans sitting down to talk about sanctions, the americans talking about sanctions. you have russia's putin saying let's -- you need to put more pressure on the opposition. on the one hand, you have a truce that lasted for a brief period. you continue to have violence, things look like they are deteriorating. >> the fact that we had a truce is good news, but the sides feel far apart. >> they are far apart. yanukovych wants to retain power he was elected democratically but kind of an authoritarian presence. the opposition want him out. they do not think he can provide what they want, they are leaning towards the les

dylan dreyer is in chatham, massachusetts, where the storm hit the area really hard. hi, dylan. >> hey, alex. it was a miserable day yesterday, and especially last night as the snow came down fast and heavy, especially in areas across the western cape where they ended up with about 15 inches of snow on the western edge of cape cod. we are in the eastern edge, where it was extremely windy. we saw wind gusts up near 60 miles per hour. you can see the direction it came in from. look at these polls and this is what we're seeing on poll poles cars. you have all this snow and ice that came in sideways. now it is completely frozen over. all of the rain is frozen solid. windchills are well down into the single digits. areas are starting to run out of salt. so there's the possible with the next storm possible on tuesday that some towns could be paying double or triple what they normally would for salt just because it's been such a brutal winter. so here we are possibly going to see another round of snow as we go into monday night, especially on tuesday, so the relentless winte
