Coming up on this CNN Sunday Morning...

The Chilean government is expected to update the number of casualties from Saturday's massive pre-dawn earthquake this morning. Preliminary estimates put the number of dead at more than 300.

The 8.8-magnitude quake spawned tsunami waves that raced across the Pacific Ocean, but official fears of destruction went unrealized.

Josh Levs hits the internet to see how social media played a critical role during the Hawaii tsumami scare and how it's helping Chileans find missing friends and family.

Folks in the U.S. northeast are digging out from a third round of winter weather to hit in a month. Meteorologist Bonnie Schneider's in for Reynolds Wolf and is following that for us.

Betty Nguyen sits down for a one-on-one, two-part interview with Tibetan Spiritual Leader the Dalai Lama. That's coming up in our 6 o'clock hour. UPDATE: We've pushed this special interview to air next weekend.

Join Betty and Josh, with Rob Marciano sitting in for TJ Holmes on this CNN Sunday Morning, beginning 6am ET/ 3am PT.
