Storm System Threatens Thanksgiving Travel; Texans Beat Colts
ALISYN CAMEROTA, CNN ANCHOR: A major storm system is threatening the central U.S. and the northeast. It could complicate travel plans for the Thanksgiving holiday. CNN meteorologist Jennifer Gray has our forecast. Say it ain't so.</s>JENNIFER GRAY, CNN METEOROLOGIST: It's true. And then when travel gets really busy next week, we'll be watching two more systems. So a lot to get to, of course. We do have one across the south right now. That will be making its way to the east. This weather update is brought to you by Kay, where your love story is always the most important one of all. Here's what we're talking about. This system that's impacting the south, that's going to make its way to the northeast as we go throughout the day. Forecast radar shows all of the rain pushing offshore by the time we get into this evening. But here's another round of rain on Saturday impacting the southeast, once again hitting the northeast by the time we get into Saturday night into Sunday. And then that one will be pushing out and then we'll have yet another round by the time we get into mid-week next week. Here's your rain accumulation. Anywhere across the south, we could see an inch or two. Once you get up into the northeast, say portions of Jersey, Long Island could see two inches of rain over the next couple of days. High temperatures pretty uniform across the northern tier of the country. Chicago pretty chilly, though. High temperature is 37 degrees today. A little bit below normal. But a lot of temperatures across this region are actually right around normal. Some areas even a little bit above. So here's your holiday travel. And these are the next two systems we'll be watching. This is Wednesday, 7:00 a.m. And you can see this area of low pressure in the Midwest could be impacting big cities like Chicago, all the way down to the south. And we'll also have, at the same time, one impacting the west. So, John, as people are traveling, could get a little hairy across the Midwest and the West Coast.</s>JOHN BERMAN, CNN ANCHOR: Not good because all the rain this weekend, just too wet for me to do yard work outside.

I have to watch football.</s>CAMEROTA: Yes.</s>BERMAN: So, President Trump will hold a White House listening session today on the health risks from vaping. This as the administration appears to have backed off a promise to ban flavored e-cigarettes in the face of all this. The CDC says the number of vaping related lung injury cases has risen to more than 2,200. Forty-seven people have died in 25 states from vaping related injuries.</s>CAMEROTA: New this morning, Philippines Airlines and more than 300 passengers are praising the pilot of this Manila-bound flight after an engine started spitting fire, they say. This was shortly after takeoff from Los Angeles. This was the view from inside the plane you're about to see. OK, this was a dad recording as his little girl sat by the window. Oh, my goodness, how scary. The plane lost an engine but thankfully the FAA says the pilot pulled off this emergency landing, quote, without incident. I'd call this incident, you know?</s>BERMAN: It's incident, but a good pilot there making food decisions.</s>CAMEROTA: Yes.</s>BERMAN: All right, so Tesla unveiled its first electric pickup. The Cybertruck. Looks like something out of a comic book there. Elon Musk, who runs Tesla, put the truck through its paces to demonstrate its ruggedness. It turns out it can withstand bullets and a sledge hammer.</s>CAMEROTA: Oh, good. Good, I need that.</s>BERMAN: But what about the armored glass windows?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Oh, my</s>CAMEROTA: Huh.</s>BERMAN: Yes.</s>CAMEROTA: All right. They're going to have to go back to the drawing board with that one.</s>BERMAN: He joked that they will fix it in post. I mean I'm not sure that your windows need to withstand someone throwing a brick at them.</s>CAMEROTA: Oh, maybe not yours, John.</s>BERMAN: Well, that's a good point.</s>CAMEROTA: Maybe not yours.</s>BERMAN: That's a good point. So the Houston Texans came through with a huge comeback over the Colts to take control of the AFC South. Andy Scholes with the "Bleacher Report." Andy.</s>ANDY SCHOLES, CNN SPORTS CORRESPONDENT: Yes, good morning, guys. You know, still five weeks left in the NFL season, but this is a big win for Deshaun Watson and the Texans. They now have firm control of their division. They were down multiple times in this game, down 7-3 in the second quarter. Watson going to scramble around. Then he's going to find a wide open DeAndre Hopkins for the touchdown. And these two would hook up again in the game, fourth quarter, trailing by four, Watson hits Hopkins in stride for the go-ahead touchdown. Texans hold on for the big win 20-17. After each one of those touchdown receptions, Hopkins handing the ball to his biggest fan, his mom, sitting in the front row. She's legally blind after having acid thrown in her face back in 2002. All right, the NFL announcing yesterday that they are upholding the Browns Myles Garrett indefinite suspension for hitting Steeler's quarterback Mason Rudolph with a helmet. It's the longest suspension for an on-field incident in NFL history. Now, a new wrinkle in this case came out yesterday. According to reports, Garrett told the NFL in his hearing that Rudolph said a racial slur towards him during the skirmish. And once that news got out, Garrett releasing a statement saying, this was not meant for public dissemination, nor was it a convenient attempt to justify my actions or restore my image in the eyes of those I disappointed. I know what I heard. Whether my opponent's comment was born out of frustration or ignorance, I cannot say, but his actions do not excuse my lack of restraint in the moment. Now Rudolph, though his attorney, vehemently denied using any kind of racial slur and says the attack on his integrity is worse than the assault that occurred during the game. And, guys, the NFL said they looked into the racial slur allegation and found no such evidence.</s>CAMEROTA: Wow, what an update. OK, Andy, thank you very much. So Democrats are moving ahead with impeachment without hearing from a number of key witnesses. Do they need the testimony of people like John Bolton? And could we end up hearing from John Bolton as this process moves forward? That's next.
