Moisture from the Gulf of Mexico has surged northward ahead of the front.That moisture is overlapping with the fresh supply of cold air, setting the stage for an expansive area of snow and ice impacting millions of Americans from the nation's southern border to its northern border.As of Wednesday morning, the winter storm was producing snow and a narrow band of sleet and freezing rain over a large area from Colorado, New Mexico and the Texas Panhandle to parts of Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.

As Canada’s home prices soared during COVID-19, real-estate money laundering audits fell 64%

anti-money laundering watchdog plummeted during the COVID-19 pandemic, new figures show, a deeply “troubling” sign for authorities tracking dirty money, financial crime experts say.The data from the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) showed money laundering audits in real estate dropped from 146 in 2019-20 to just 53 in 2020-21 – a decrease of 64 per cent. That’s down from nearly 200 audits of real-estate entities in 2018-19.The new numbers, obtained through an access to information request, come as Canada’s housing market has been on fire for the last two years, with prices reaching historic levels fuelled by ultra-low interest rates and a lack of supply across the country.
