An update on the news in just under 20 minutes. Time now for a look at | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
the news as seen across the United States a couple of hours ago, in ABC | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
World News with Dianne Sawyer. Welcome. Tonight, another massive | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
snowstorm has blanketed trees and streets and many Super Bowl fans are | :00:15. | :00:21. | |
trying to get home. Thousands of flights cancelled and delayed around | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
the country. I just want to get out of here! Cars off the road and | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
ploughs up when the snow. More storms on the way. Fallen star. The | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
death of Philip Seymour Hoffman. Tonight, please describe the hidden | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
struggle with heroin at the height of his career. -- police describe. | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
Good evening. As we start this week together, 163 million Americans are | :00:49. | :00:59. | |
in the path of three winter storms that are a chain reaction for travel | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
trouble. Each new storm is more powerful than the last. We start | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
with all the people caught in a conveyor belt of wicked weather. | :01:12. | :01:20. | |
From the midwest to the north-east, another wet, heavy, slippery mess. | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
An army of ploughs in New York can barely keep up. The new mayor had | :01:26. | :01:34. | |
trouble handling Staten Island's answer to Tiny Phil. I am learning | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
about snow removal more than I ever expected to. School closed from the | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
north-east to Ohio. Whiteout conditions in Illinois. Trucks | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
pushing trucks in Oklahoma. It is also busting budgets. Cities like | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
Milwaukee running out of salt and others cancelling some projects to | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
pay for winter cleanup. For the thousands of Super Bowl fans | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
expecting cold and snow, they got it, just a little bit late. I was | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
walking the dog. Now the dog won't come out? The dog is smart! Across | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
the country, many flights cancelled and over 4000 delayed. It has been a | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
horrible year for flying. Airlines have lost up to $150 million and it | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
has cost them 30 million passengers affected. Here, 40% of flights have | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
been cancelled today and it looks like the travel misery is set to | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
continue. Meteorologists say this is the first of three storms to hit the | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
midwest and north-east between now and early next week. | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
Thank you. When did the next two big storms hit adware? -- and where? | :02:51. | :03:02. | |
It's a very vigourous storm system. Over the next seven -10 days, one | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
storm after another repeating itself, in the same path. Lots of | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
snow in the Ohio Valley, lots of rain down south. The storm we have | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
now is exiting and producing something like seven inches of snow | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
in central park, some parts to the interior of New Jersey around 11 | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
inches. It will move through the centre again and create | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
thunderstorms. Then it goes into cold air and it will create ice. | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
Again into the New York City area and Boston. On top of that, there | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
could be a major storm, even bigger, coming for Sunday. | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
Now we look at the stock market falling. The Dow is down almost 300 | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
points after last week. What is driving this? Is it time to change | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
plans. --? Wall Street slammed. News today that | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
American factories are turning out on a at their weakest rates. Also | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
affecting the markets is the weather. Cold and snow are grinding | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
businesses to a halt. There are concerns it will affect jobs. The | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
average American family's 401(k) hit hard down as much as 5.8% this year. | :04:27. | :04:35. | |
This means the typical $100,000 has lost almost $6,000 and just the last | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
month alone. A tough first day on the job for the new Federal Reserve | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
chair Janet Yellen whose chief mission will be to address the | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
sluggish economy, especially jobs. And now by ten. Only met this couple | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
of Illinois last December, things were looking good. | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Now that you have stayed the course, how do you feel? | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
Very good, a great care. Now they join many others who face | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
an uncertain future. For perspective, we should look at | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
this, the last month of your retirement savings account. A weak | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
one. So far, if you look at the bigger picture, last year, stocks | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
were up at record highs. On average, you are still looking much better | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
than you did a few years ago during the great recession. | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
Thank you. Now we turn to the news that stunned many Americans | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
yesterday. For anybody who loves films, it is like a death in the | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
family. Philip Seymour Hoffman at 46 years old, an actor who was famously | :05:39. | :05:48. | |
shy and generous. Part of an actor's craft is to look at the | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
journey of life and find meaning in its destination. Somebody who lived | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
brilliantly inside of so many different people, the world and so | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
baffled today at how Philip Seymour Hoffman wound up here. Police | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
revealed new details about his death scene, finding nearly 70 bags of | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
heroin in his apartment. He was found with a needle in his arm. | :06:13. | :06:21. | |
On Wednesday night lights on Bordeaux will -- lights on Broadway | :06:22. | :06:29. | |
will be dammed and has no. An anxious night because of a prison | :06:30. | :06:36. | |
break. Authorities are in a race against time to find this man. The | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
hunt is on to track down is convicted killer. His getaway car | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
was found in a small town this afternoon. Schools have put on | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
lockdown as officers move door to door. | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
I have a little boy so it is scary. He was convicted of killing four | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
people in 1993 and was serving a life full stop he escaped from | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
prison in Michigan on Sunday night. Authorities believe his stall and | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
kitchen uniform and use his hands to pull apart two security fences. | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
There are flaws in the security that we need to assess. | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
He carjacked and abducted a woman driving this car and drove the | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
Indian. And for gas. She asked to use the bathroom and made a call to | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
911 from behind a log. -- behind a locked door. | :07:34. | :07:43. | |
He left her in the bathroom and laughed. Nerves on edge as | :07:44. | :07:51. | |
authorities race to get him behind bars. Avoiding crashes like this | :07:52. | :08:00. | |
one. How your car can keep you safe, keep cutting accidents by 80%. | :08:01. | :09:27. | |
Now, imagine your car avoiding a crash by talking to the other cars | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
around you. The US government says there is a new technology that they | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
want people to have by the time you buy your next car. Something as | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
important as safety as seatbelts. We find out how it works. Alert cars | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
are designed to survive this. What if we could keep those accidents | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
from ever happening? Cutting accidents by 80% by having your car | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
talk to other cars around you ? We can't understate the significance | :09:59. | :10:07. | |
of having vehicles that can be able to stop accidents. | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
They want every vehicle to have this technology. This rule will be in | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
place with the end of 2016. Ten times every second your car will | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
transmit its speed, direction, and other information. It will receive | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
the same information from cars around it. If somebody is braking | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
hard, cars in front of you, if you are pressing a vehicle, you will get | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
a warning of things happening. The technology will cost between | :10:35. | :10:43. | |
$100-$200. In the future, it could be paid with other systems like | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
automatic brakes which we tried out for a test drive. | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
It's just takes over. That is amazing. | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
We can build a foundation of avoiding crashes before they happen | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
in the first place. This could save at least 20,000 | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
lives on American highways every year. | :11:02. | :11:08. | |
Our instant index tonight begins with a man who was a plumber by | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
trade at road into history. Look at this. This wave is 80 feet tall. It | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
is off Portugal and may be the biggest ever surfed. Look again. | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
There is the ways and there, that tiny speck, that is a man. He is a | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
plumber and so thinking. Another high seas adventure in the news. | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
Last week we told you about the mystery surrounding a man claims he | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
was adrift in the Pacific for more than one year living on turtles and | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
seagulls. Tonight, we see him. Here he is. Rwanda was discovered | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
shipwrecked on a remote island halfway between Hawaii and | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
Australia. -- he was discovered. It is easy to compare him to Castaway | :11:54. | :12:02. | |
from the film Castaway. Is the story real? | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
Style advice to Kate Middleton? A newspaper is claiming the Queen has | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
seen at the affordable dresses that has made Kate Middleton famous and | :12:11. | :12:20. | |
has suggested that she should wear longer hemlines when she visits | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
Australia including jewellery from the Queen's personal collection. She | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
has offered to send a stylist to help her. | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
We have a note tonight about the pressing. Joan Mondale has died. She | :12:33. | :12:42. | |
was a passionate advocate for the arts and pushing Congress to | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
increase funding for public arts programmes. She was so devoted, she | :12:45. | :12:53. | |
was given the nickname, Joan. She died with her husband and children | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
by her side. She was 83 years old. Now, we want to thank all of you | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
that responded powerfully to our special report on guns and children. | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
Every third day in America, a child dies of an accidental shooting. We | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
heard from so many of you with ideas about what we can do to save lives. | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
Your response was overwhelming. On one side, so many people leave | :13:22. | :13:35. | |
their guns on locked and loaded. On the other side, people say you can | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
still defend yourself but lock up your gun. After the special, many of | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
you went online to start a conversation about this in your | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
neighbourhood is about play dates and the guns. So many members say it | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
is time that we talk to each other. Even couples on different sites on | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
now talking, saying that we watched this and it helps them understand | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
each other. This is what some people said. | :14:00. | :14:08. | |
We also received messages from police. They were offering free gun | :14:09. | :14:17. | |
locks for those who want them. This officer and his wife are parents of | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
a young boy who got a hold of a gun and was lost to an accidental | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
shooting. They say that they heard from fellow police officers and | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
strangers alike saying it is time to change. The father of this little | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
boy seen in this video, a father believes that even very young | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
children should learn how to use guns. Charlie is four years old but | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
after watching a special, his father has told is that he will no longer | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
be leaving has guns out after use. He immediately lock them up. | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
I am glad you are watching tonight. We are always here online. I will | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
see you tomorrow night. A very unsettled week ahead. Wet and | :14:59. | :15:22. | |
windy weather associated with deep areas of low pressure. It is moving | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
in off the Atlantic. In a sequence of events on Monday. Monday | :15:31. | :15:31. |
