1
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: Hey there, folks. It is Monday, January twenty sixth, and

2
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: it has been destructive. It has been devastating, it has

3
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: been deadly, and it is not done. Welcome to this

4
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: episode of Amy and TJ hopping on to give you

5
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: an update on what we are still in the midst of,

6
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: which is a historic storm that's devastating the country in romes.

7
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: We have to say, we're recording this pretty early this

8
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: morning on Monday. This is one you have to The

9
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: mineralogists got this one right. They've been warning us about

10
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: this thing, and it's pretty much happening exactly how they

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: said it would, which is disastrous.

12
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean twenty three states have declared states of

13
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: emergency in this country. That is a significant number. That's

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: nearly half the country is in a state of emergency.

15
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 2: And the death toll from this storm is rising. The

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: numbers are all over the place, but from what we

17
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 2: can gather this morning, at least a dozen have died

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: because of this storm, and more than eight hundred thousand

19
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: people are without power. We're talking about one hundred and

20
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: eighty five million Americans impacted by one storm. It's hard

21
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: to get your head around that. And yes, we've been

22
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: warned about it. We've been told about it, but sometimes

23
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: we doubt our local forecasters because we think God's not

24
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: going to be that bad. This one was an all

25
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 2: day historic event.

26
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: Well, I hope a lot of you all did heed warnings.

27
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: We know a lot of governments across the country, state,

28
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: local communities are shut down for the most part, a

29
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: lot of schools are closed. A lot of airports even

30
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: for the most part you could argue, are closed because

31
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: of cancelations and delays that we have seen. So we

32
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: want to get you caught up about where things are

33
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: right now this moment. As we are recording this on

34
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: Monday morning, it is going to be a difficult day

35
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: for a lot of people. So let's start with that

36
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: first of all. Robes. We'll take it in three different segments. Essentially,

37
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: I guess the devastation with the death toll, what we're

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: seeing with power outages, and also what we're going to

39
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: be looking at with travel coming up. But let's start

40
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: there with the death toll. It has been steadily going

41
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: up and by the counts we're seeing now at least

42
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: and we could probably ropes unfortunately, expect this to go up.

43
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: But approximately a dozen folks have been dead, have been

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: killed in I guess various ways, and frankly in some

45
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: of the ways we unfortunately were used to seeing during

46
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: a storm like this.

47
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: That's true, and we're getting some of the details about

48
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: some of these deaths. We know that three people died

49
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: in Tennessee, two in Louisiana. We know those were two

50
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: men who both died of hypothermia. Two died in Texas.

51
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: Listened to this just north of Dallas. This is just

52
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 2: something that's so tragic. The story is this one one

53
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: sixteen year old boy was driving a jeep Wrangler. He

54
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: had two sixteen year old girls being pulled in a

55
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 2: sled behind the jeep. The sled flew and hit a

56
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 2: curb and then a tree. One girl died, the other

57
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: girls in critical condition, and then someone else died in

58
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: Tech of hypothermia. Another person died in Kansas. In Massachusetts,

59
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 2: a woman died after she and her husband were walking

60
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 2: in a parking lot and a snow plow truck struck

61
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: her didn't see her in all of the binding snow

62
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: and killed her. And then we know that five people

63
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: were found dead here in New York City on Saturday.

64
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: They are believed to have died from exposure hypothermia to

65
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 2: the cold. Some of those deaths aren't confirmed. And we

66
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: also have a tragic plane crash in Maine where we

67
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: do not know the status of eight people who took

68
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: off around eight pm last night in the heart of

69
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: this massive snowstorm. So those numbers are still we don't

70
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: know if, unfortunately, if those folks will be added to

71
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 2: the death soull.

72
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: And travel is impossible. It is virtually impossible in many

73
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: areas of the country. And part of this is going

74
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: to be a problem folks. As we sit here in

75
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: New York. It is what Monday morning, we are not

76
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: predicted to hit a temperature above thirty two above freezing

77
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: until next Whinda at the earliest. So we have a

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: pile of snow and ice sitting as layers on these

79
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: roads that don't have a chance of melting for another

80
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: week and a half. That is going to be an

81
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: issue in many places across the country. You all please

82
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: heat these warnings, Please listen to folks. I know some

83
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: folks just have to get out robes, but it is

84
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: slick and it is going to be an invisible sheet

85
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: of ice in many places. From Texas to the Carolinas

86
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: today and in days ahead.

87
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, and look, some places are more adjusted

88
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: or know how to deal with cold like this, with

89
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 2: ice like this, with snow like this. But so many

90
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: parts of the country, so many of you listening, this

91
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 2: is an anomaly. This just doesn't happen, and it certainly

92
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: hasn't happened in a very long time. And so many

93
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: folks are dealing with power outages. You just talked about

94
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: that extreme cold. Now imagine you don't have heat, you

95
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: don't have a generator, you don't have a way of

96
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: making your homewarm. I know there are warming centers across

97
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: the country, but eight one hundred and twenty thousand customers

98
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: are without power this morning. That is significant. And Tennessee

99
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,559
Speaker 2: really got hit hard. At least two hundred and fifty

100
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 2: three thousand customers are without power there. Nashville said they

101
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: have not seen an ice storm like this in three decades.

102
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: That's the magnitude of this storm.

103
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: So this is going to be obviously an issue because

104
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: those numbers might go up. The outages. Oftentimes we see

105
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: them at the beginning, initially at the start of a storm,

106
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: and then numbers start to improve. But this is a

107
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: situation where you have ice continuing to build up in places,

108
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: so you could still have power lines coming down, You

109
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: still could have tree limbs coming down on those power lines,

110
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. Tennessee and Mississippi are

111
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: two states at least that are looking at nearly ten

112
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: percent of those states are dark do not have power

113
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: right now. That is a significant issue given the temperatures

114
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: that are not rising. Speaking of those temperatures, speaking of

115
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: the precipitation, We've got some places in the country that's

116
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: all thirty inches plus of snow, and then you have

117
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: some places in the country that saw forty below in

118
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: wind chills. So we're talking about yes, it's cold, this

119
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: is not cold. This is dangerous, downright dangerous in many places.

120
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you mentioned the thirty inches of Bonito Lake,

121
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: New Mexico. I think right now, according to the National

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: Weather Service had the most snow from this storm thirty

123
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 2: one inches. That's just even hard to get your head around.

124
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 2: And if you had anywhere to be. We're talking about

125
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 2: the roads obviously a major major issue, but so were

126
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 2: the airport's air travel Sunday they said will be considered

127
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 2: one of the biggest weather related flight cancelation days in

128
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 2: US history. That is the impact of this storm. US

129
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: flight cancelations actually hit the highest level since the pandemic

130
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 2: March thirtieth. They're going back to. Of course, that was

131
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: the day where we found out what was happening in

132
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 2: this country or in around the world, and all those

133
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: flights got canceled. That was twelve one hundred and forty

134
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 2: three flights canceled on day March thirtieth, twenty twenty. Yesterday

135
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 2: eleven thousand and five ninety eight. We were close, and that

136
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: is significant. More than thirty five hundred flight delays or

137
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: excuse me, cancelations are expected today and that doesn't even

138
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: take into account the delays. So if you're trying to

139
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: get somewhere today, probably best in airlines have certainly set

140
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: up situations where you can go online, you can rebook

141
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: your flight, and they are they are waving fees because

142
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: this is an absolute mess. Obviously, with yesterday, with all

143
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 2: of those cancelations, it's going to take days for airports

144
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 2: to get back to where they were supposed to be.

145
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 2: And school districts, well, mom and dads, you all already

146
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: know a lot of your kids are not going to

147
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,679
Speaker 2: school today. But I know TJ. Sabine was pretty upset

148
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 2: because even though she's not going to school today, she's

149
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: still learning today.

150
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a different lot than the school district like

151
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: New York. Of course they have so many other days,

152
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: other holidays. Is at the very diverse city, so they

153
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: cannot afford to take days off. You gotta get kids

154
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: in certain numbers parents to cross the country. No, so yes,

155
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: they there are no snow days. There are just days

156
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: you don't go physically into your building. The rest of

157
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: them are remote remote learning days, which of course we

158
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: got something out of the pandemic. We don't have to

159
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: have it canceled snow days essentially for kids across the country.

160
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: They now know how to do this via zoom. You

161
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 2: could see Sabine or we could hear Sabine's disappointment when

162
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 2: she was like, wait, what we have to do zoom?

163
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 2: But that is what a lot of kids. They can

164
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: still probably take some time off maybe and get into

165
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: the snow and have some fun, but it is so

166
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: cold out there. It is tough. And speaking of man,

167
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 2: this hitting close to home when we're talking about where

168
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 2: some of this snow hit Arkansas. That was a big

169
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: news maker over the weekend, your home state. Twelve inches

170
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 2: of snow in some parts of Arkansas, ten inches in

171
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 2: North Little Rock. But they had a situation with a

172
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: dock where heavy snow came crashing down on these houseboats.

173
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: A whole doc people had to be rescued. This is

174
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 2: again a part of the country that just isn't used

175
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 2: to see. How much snow did you see when you

176
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: were living in Arkansas?

177
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: No, I mean I can't remember. I don't have any

178
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: childhood memories of snow. But no, I grew up in

179
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: the Memphis area, and yeah, we don't get snow. We

180
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: don't do this. I didn't know that snow boots were necessary.

181
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: I had no idea about this stuff until I'm moving

182
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: to New York. Really, so it is it's that factors

183
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: in as well, with people not know exactly how to

184
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: deal with it, with cities not necessarily being prepared for

185
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: something this large. No fault of theirs, but historically, why

186
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: do I need to get this many snow trucks? We

187
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 1: only have one big snow every twenty five years. We

188
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: understand that, but now we need the trucks. Yeah, and

189
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: a lot of cities are dealing with that. But stay here, folks.

190
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: We will give you the very latest and the update

191
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: on what's happening right now with flights across the country.

192
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: Stay here, all right, folks, will continue here on this Monday,

193
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: January twenty six. Just wanted to hop on and give

194
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: you the very latest on what's happening across the country

195
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: with this storm that has been devastating and it is

196
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: now deadly. At least about a dozen attributed to this snowstorm, snowstorm,

197
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: ice storm, severe cold storm, whatever you want to call it,

198
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: but it's hitting right now. It continues to have an

199
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 1: impact across the country and particularly the south. But really,

200
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: you can draw a line from almost New Mexico all

201
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 1: the way to North Carolina with a fat crayon, make

202
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: it pink, and draw from New Mexico to North Carolina,

203
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: and that's really the chunk of the country that is

204
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: just continuing to be devastated right now. Robes, I think

205
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: most people are resigned to the idea that you're not

206
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: traveling right now. Yeah, I guess some people you absolutely

207
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: have to get somewhere, but most people are You have

208
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: to understand it's.

209
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 2: Not happening, No and yes, because if you have delays

210
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 2: like we saw yesterday at the airport, now you're trying

211
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 2: to get out somewhere today and there were already, as

212
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 2: we mentioned, thousands of cancelations, delays stacking up, piling up.

213
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: This thing isn't going to get back to normal in

214
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: terms of air travel, at least for several days. So yes,

215
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: people will have to be understand of the situation at

216
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: hand with all of the weather delays that continue as far.

217
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: As this morning goes. We're giving you this real time again,

218
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: as of this recording of this morning, we're already seeing

219
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: about four thousand delays in the country. Again, this is

220
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: coming to us from Flight Aware at this point. Don't

221
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: have to explain what that is. Most people who travel

222
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: are aware of that by now, but they are giving

223
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: real time updates about what's happening in the worst right now.

224
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: The airport's being impact as far as cancelation goes. Boston, JFK, Newark, LaGuardia, Reagan, National, Charlotte, Dallas, Nashville, Philadelphia, Washington.

225
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: You get the point here. These are all the cities

226
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 1: on the East Coast right now, but Boston sixty percent

227
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: of flights this morning so far have been canceled.

228
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 2: Wow, that I mean that is significant. You know what,

229
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 2: actually what headlines stood out to me. This may sound trivial,

230
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,719
Speaker 2: but certainly if you're a New Yorker, you understand how

231
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: important our delivery systems are here, especially in a snowstorm

232
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 2: like this. It got so bad that DoorDash suspended all

233
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 2: operations yesterday until today. You know that's a big deal

234
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 2: because New Yorkers who don't want to get out, We

235
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: rely on our folks who get out there and bring

236
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 2: things when stuff is tough to get around, or at

237
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 2: least the weather makes it tough to get around. I've

238
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 2: never seen door Dash suspend deliveries here in New York City,

239
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 2: at least in recent history. I haven't seen that. That

240
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 2: was a sign of the severity of the storm. At

241
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: least here in New York City. That was significant. But

242
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: we've got some of the highest no totals, just out

243
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: of curiosity who got pounded the most. I mentioned those

244
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 2: thirty one inches in New Mexico, Crested Butte, Colorado twenty

245
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 2: three inches, but New City, New York seventeen point six inches,

246
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 2: Connecticut eighteen inches, New Jersey seventeen inches. So that fell

247
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 2: in line with what forecasters were suggesting. But again, we

248
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 2: have not seen snow like this in five years here

249
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: in the Northeast, and for some folks during this weather,

250
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: this is the most snow they've ever seen in their lives.

251
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 2: And you mentioned, babe, what comes next now is this

252
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: cold weather. Millions of folks now are going to be

253
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: ten to forty degrees below average for the many, many

254
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: days to come, and that is dangerous. Of course. So

255
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: many of the deaths we've talked about already from this

256
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 2: storm came from exposure, came from cold weather. So when

257
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: you've got wind chills minus twenty, minus thirty, that is significant.

258
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 2: And I was looking to see the National Weather Service

259
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: put it like this. They said, from Montana to the

260
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: Florida Panhandle, there are cold weather advisories and extreme cold

261
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 2: warnings for all of those folks in that path. And

262
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: I know it's January, but still this is dangerous cold.

263
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: And just wanted to jump on and let everyone know that, yes,

264
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 2: we are maybe through the worst of the precipitation right now,

265
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 2: but we've got a lot of that dangerous weather behind it,

266
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 2: with wind chills and cold weather. So please everyone stay put.

267
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 2: If You can bundle up, of course, and we will

268
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 2: be monitoring this situation and bring you any new developments,

269
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 2: but as always, we appreciate you listening to us. Everyone,

270
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: I'm Ami Robot alongside the
