Western New York State got powder pounded yesterday from lake effect snow and has already hit the record for snowfall in 24 hours. Last I heard they have 76 inches so far!
A man drove from Long Island, New York, into Lower Manhattan earlier today in a van he thought was filled with explosives. He parked the van close to the Federal Reserve building, just a few blocks from the World Trade Center, and planned to detonate it using a cell phone from a nearby hotel.
The explosives, however, were fake.
