There is now an active rescue operation underway at the Potomac River in Washington D.C. after a passenger plane operated by American Airlines collided midair with a Black Hawk helicopter while trying to land. CBS News' @krisvancleave reports that this is the first commercial airline crash in the United States since a regional flight crashed in Buffalo, New York in 2009. "This was an unparalleled period of aviation safety that appears to have come to an end tonight," Van Cleave said. cbsn.ws/40RnLA4

We’re aware of reports that American Eagle flight 5342, operated by PSA, with service from Wichita, Kansas (ICT) to Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) has been involved in an incident. We will provide information as it becomes available.






AMAZING view of the Lake Erie snowband from satellite. Folks, it's sunny on either side of a narrow band of snow no more than 15 miles wide where rates are now 3-4" per hr!! Here is the radar as well. @NWSBUFFALO @weatherchannel
