Live: Weather Worsening in Maine, New Brunswick
The worst of the snowstorm is departing southeastern New England, while conditions are worsening farther to the north where the storm will turn into an all-out blizzard across eastern Maine and Atlantic Canada before the day is through.
According to media reports, a fireball streaked through the skies above California’s Bay Area Friday evening (Feb. 15), just hours after another bright meteor exploded over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk and a 150-foot-wide (45 meters) asteroid gave Earth a historically close shave.
Amid the damage caused by Friday’s meteorite, residents around Chelyabinsk, Russia, are scrambling to find shelter from the impending bitter cold nights.
