Rep. Elise Stefanik is ending her New York governor campaign, citing family priorities and motherhood in surprise announcement weeks after launching her bid.
Long Island receives 21cm of snow, while a tornado tears down decorations near Málaga
Heavy snow fell in parts of New England this week. New York’s Central Park received a few centimetres of snow, while 21cm (8.5in) was dumped in parts of Long Island. This is the earliest New York has experienced snowfall since 2018.
New York narrowly missed out on widespread snowfall a few weeks ago. The low-pressure system tracked ever so slightly to the north of New York, enabling the warmer air to edge in. Meanwhile, upstate New York and other parts of New England were on the colder side of the system and received significant snow accumulations.

You see, I have spent the last month trying to smile like Zohran Mamdani. This is not, as I have discovered, an easy feat.
Ever since the incoming mayor of New York became a household name, I’ve been intrigued by his perma-smile. His detractors call him a “jihadist”, and he smiles. He meets Donald Trump, and he smiles. Some Republican lawmakers launch a campaign to investigate his path to citizenship and deport him? He keeps on smiling. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen him look angry.
Une réplique de la Statue de la Liberté s'est effondrée en direct alors qu'elle était filmée : haute de 24 mètres, cette imitation était située à Guaíba au sud du Brésil devant le magasin Havan, auquel elle appartient. Mais alors que la statue commençait à vaciller en raison des vents violents,...
