What weather events are impacting the Northeast this week?

Carmen Roberts 0:02
A historic blizzard targets the Northeast. I'm Carmen Roberts, Fox News. A powerful nor'easter is expected to slam into parts of the Northeast and New England tomorrow and Monday, hitting every major city along the I-95 corridor, including New York. Mayor Zoran Mamdani is warning residents to get ready.
Zohran Mamdani 0:20
Tomorrow, our city will face its second snowstorm in less than a month and our first blizzard since 2016. Right now, forecasts predict light snow will begin to fall tomorrow morning at 6 a.m. Over the course of the day, it will grow heavier with intense snowfall beginning at 6 p.m.

New York City is likely to get 12 to 18 inches of snow. Boston, the Jersey Shore and parts of Long Island up to two feet. Philadelphia at least a foot. President Trump's warning Iran bad things will happen if it fails to make a good nuclear deal as the U.S. military increases its presence in the region. They better negotiate a fair deal.

Right now, there's about three times the amount of Arab power assembled in the Middle East or heading there compared to Operation Midnight Hammer over the summer. And President Trump is considering unleashing it on Iran unless that country comes to an agreement with the United States.

Fox's Lucas Tomlinson. Meantime, President Trump's not backing down on tariffs after a stunning Supreme Court defeat in which the court ruled an emergency power act does not authorize him to impose tariffs. He's using a different law and imposing temporary ones. This morning, he announced the new global tariffs will be 15% rather than the 10% he laid out yesterday.
Unknown 1:32
President Trump has been able to quickly find a workaround for the tariffs. What's less unclear is the status of the roughly $175 billion in tariff revenue that are now subject to potential refunds. The court sent the issue back to the lower courts with the refunds running through trade courts and the customs claims process. It could be very messy and take a long time to do.

Crews have recovered the bodies of nine backcountry skiers who were killed in California avalanche four days ago. Authorities say a search team reached the bodies of the eight victims and found the other one who had been missing, presumed dead, since Tuesday's avalanche near Lake Tahoe. Those recovery efforts had been put on hold because of heavy snow and the threat of more avalanches. Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson says the UK and European allies should immediately deploy non-combat troops to Ukraine to show Russian President Putin that Western nations are committed to the nation's freedom. Meantime, Ukraine's embassy in the U.S. is holding a rally in D.C. today to mark four years since Russia's invasion.
Eben Brown 2:56
Ukraine's embassy in the U.S. is asking supporters to gather today for a rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington to mark four years since Russia's invasion started. The actual anniversary is February 24th. On that date in 2022, Russia's ground forces, which had assembled on their side of the border, began their ground offensives targeting Kiev, Kharkiv and Kherson. The war continues with Russia now occupying significant Ukrainian territory. While tallies of deaths are not conclusive, some analysts think the number of soldiers and civilians killed between both sides could be more than a million. Eben Brown, Fox News.

The latest partial government shutdown continues as Senate Democrats demand reforms to ICE. Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania tells Fox News.
Ainsley Earhardt 3:43
All the Democrats, we agree that we want to have some reforms on ICE, but this would have none of that involved in it. This shutdown was nothing more than people that are afraid of the base to just explain to them that shutting down the entire DHS will have no impact or make those kinds of reforms for ICE.
