and bob beher joining us live.e, the ntsb is saying they have a pretty good feeling about these latest satellite images. do we have any clue as to why there's such confidence? >> well, the ntsb based on their data they've been able to narrow the search down to that southern part of the indian ocean. so they feel very confident about that search area. and the reason why they got to that search area is because they considered the currents, they also considered how fast the plane may have been going. they considered multiple pieces of data including radar in order to come up with that southern area in the indian ocean where they should be searching. now, today we're talking about those satellite images, possibly the debris from the plane. now, the images are being called more credible. so much so that they've diverted the search area to this specific place where they believe these images are from. why so credible? after all we remember those chinese satellite images, they turned out to be a false alarm. but authoritie

we turn to john blaxland, senior fellow from the national university joining us live from canber canberra, australia. thanks for being with us. can you give us a sense of where they are in the search now? it's day two of these planes flying overhead, day two of that norwegian cruise ship being in that vicinity. and now, you know, it's five days after the satellites first took those images, so where do we stand today? >> well, you're absolutely right, it's five days after that image. so, the debris that was identified in those photographs is now quite at a different location. it's moved on. it's moved on to a different spot entirely, probably several hundred miles further to the east. and the problem is now, okay, there's been a request for additional imagery, but the imagery may not necessarily identify very much at all. the problem is that even though we've got good conditions at the moment, the photos that we saw from five days ago had an item that was just below the surface of the water. we don't know today if it's a meter or 3 feet further down or if it's still visible at all. so, it'

christie smith joins us live with an update from pg&e. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. right now doesn't sound too bad. you hear generators. as you said about 7:00 it's going to get loud, very loud. a pg&e spokesperson tells me it's going to sound like a jet engine here in san carlos this morning. and that's because they are venting a natural gas pipe line to do work here and also in redwood city. get earplugs out. maybe extra pillows if you wanted to sleep in. the venting is going around a pipe sticking out of the ground this morning. it actually could have been worse in terms of the timing. originally 2:00, 3:00, now 7:00 so. that's because the delays that they basically with tell me they had a number of valves and a lot of prep work they had to deal with. they want to be very, very careful. this is at old county and commercial, it does connect with other work around redwood city and industrial and whipple. so when you drive around you're going to see a number of crews in the areas working, a lot of detours to get around

abc news reporter katie marzullo joins us live. boat helped pull the woman from the water. not a hero, just someone who keeps an eye out for something suspicious. in this case, that something suspicious was a 45-year-old woman from san diego clinging to a deflated dinghy. coast guard said she left from monterey wharf. coast guard said the woman went out in the motorized inflatable boat to watch sunset tuesday. at some point the boat started to lose air, the motor fell off and it got very foggy, not to mention dark and cold. she apparently shot off a few flares, but no one saw them. some 15 hours later, they spotted her, called 911, tried to get her out of the water themselves. they say it was hard. she was soaking wet. >> like i said, from the looks of her skin, she still had some red in her and stuff, so she must have been swimming. >> ultimately the coast guard got her out of the water and monterey firefighters brought her to shore. this was just before can the 9:30. rescuers say the lifejacket she was wearing likely saved her li
