[0:01] I'm Katie Couric, a blast of winter in
[0:03] the heart of America.
[0:06] Heavy snow and strong winds, freezing
[0:08] rain, and frigid temperatures mean
[0:10] canceled flights and dangerous travel in
[0:12] the Midwest, and it's all heading east
[0:15] tonight.
[0:17] In the Far East, a groundbreaking deal
[0:20] could end the North Korean nuclear
[0:21] threat. We'll take a look at the promise
[0:24] and potential pitfalls.
[0:26] In a Salt Lake City mall, a teenager
[0:28] guns down five people in a matter of
[0:30] seconds, and officials say if it weren't
[0:32] for a hero cop, the toll could have been
[0:35] much higher.
[0:37] And is the food your family's eating
[0:39] safe? And is the government doing
[0:41] enough? A special series begins tonight.

[1:04] South is getting hammered by heavy rains
[1:06] and thunderstorms. In the Midwest, it's
[1:09] a blizzard, and it's heading east.
[1:11] Already, more than a thousand flights
[1:13] have been canceled. Indiana and Ohio may
[1:15] get more than a foot and a half of snow.
[1:18] And in Washington, D.C., federal
[1:19] government offices closed early because
[1:22] of icy conditions. Cynthia Bowers is in
[1:25] the very windy city tonight, and
[1:27] Cynthia, it looks like a real weather
[1:29] nightmare out there.
[1:31] Katie, it is a nightmare, and this comes
[1:33] just as we were finally thawing out from
[1:35] last week's deep freeze. Old Man Winter
[1:38] socked us sideways today, knocking
[1:40] pedestrians in Chicago's Loop for a
[1:42] loop.
[1:44] What do you thin
