Karen, we begin with the impending major winter storm that will impact a large part of the country. The East Coast is expected to be particularly hard hit. Let's get the very latest with Bloomberg meteorologist Craig Allen. Craig, what is the update?
Right now, Nathan, we're watching snow falling throughout the central portion of the United States and ice that's headed in our direction. I would think right now that it could reach the Washington Baltimore area sometime during late Saturday night into the early, early hours of Sunday. That's when it starts, makes its way on up. Ninety five goes.
past Philadelphia, Baltimore, and right on up towards New York City, probably by around sunrise or so. I would think it'll be snowing when you wake up Sunday morning and it'll be coming down hard and sticking right away because the air will be so cold. And then it makes its way on up right into New England. So Boston.
Figure by about midday on Sunday, the snow will be falling and also sticking right away. In terms of accumulations, by the time this all starts to wind down, I'm saying right now that there could be anywhere from six inches or more for the Washington, D.C. area.

Chapter 2: What is the latest update on the winter storm threatening the East Coast?
The storm is already having an impact on the airlines. They're making contingency plans for an expected weekend of messy travel, and Bloomberg's Tom Busby continues our team coverage.
U.S. carriers are out with backup plans for passengers ahead of wicked winter weather expected to impact 125 million Americans from today through Monday and disrupt air traffic from coast to coast. Delta offering to rebook flights to and from 41 airports in the south and southwest. United waiving change fees for flights at 61 airports.
An American will do the same at airports from New Mexico to Virginia. Even low-cost carriers like Spirit, Southwest, and JetBlue will waive fees for travelers. Tom Busby, Bloomberg Radio.
Okay, Tom, thank you. As we continue to track the weather, we're also looking at President Donald Trump's foreign policy plans as we learn more about the president's framework of a future deal on Greenland. Sources tell Bloomberg News the U.S. wants to rewrite its defense agreement with Denmark to remove any limits on its military presence on the island.
The current arrangement was signed in 1951, amended in 2004. It calls for the U.S. to consult with both Denmark and Greenland before it makes any significant changes to its posture. But the president says his goal is permanent total access to Greenland.
We can do anything we want. We can do military. We can do anything we want. And it's being negotiated. And let's see what happens. I think it'll be good.
President Trump spoke aboard Air Force One on his way back to Washington from Davos. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says she's open to expanding the 1951 treaty.
I think everybody in NATO agrees about that. The Arctic states, but also other member states, that we need a permanent presence from NATO in the Arctic region, including around Greenland.
But Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says the question of Greenland's sovereignty is a red line.
