Not a very exciting day today; just two quick pieces of news to report:
The death toll for the California blizzard has now risen to 13 people after an unprecedented snowstorm raged through the region for a whole week. Some areas, like Yosemite National Park, are still trying to dig out of snow totals that reached up to 15 feet! However, all of this snow and rain has severely reduced the drought in some areas, and the local drought is now even nonexistent in some sections of California.
Also, a plane sent out a mayday call last night in Long Island, New York, and exploded into a fiery crash a few minutes later. The crash killed one person and critically injured two others. However, the cause of the plane crash is still being investigated.
