The fiery rush-hour crash of a N.Y. Metro-North commuter train in Westchester County that killed six people happened amid a traffic jam that sent a swarm of autos across a level crossing.
The risk of flooding in Buffalo and western New York is dissipating as state officials look to Washington for help recovering from last weeks storm, which dropped as much as seven feet of snow on the area.
Lake-effect snow that killed at least 10 people and halted travel across western New York may reach as high as 7 feet in some areas before stopping today, when temperatures will rise along with the risk of flooding.
Lake-effect snow that killed six people and halted travel across western New York may reach as high as 7 feet in some areas before stopping tomorrow, when temperatures will start to rise along with the risk of flooding.
New Yorks cities and towns may soon learn whether they can prohibit fracking for natural gas as the Court of Appeals in Albany considers challenges to the local bans.
