A powerful and deadly winter storm took center stage as it swept across large portions of the U.S., leaving multiple states grappling with frigid temperatures, hazardous travel, widespread power outages, and tragic loss of life. Updated reports show at least 13 deaths linked to the storm, with significant snowfall blanketing regions from the Midwest to the Northeast, including over a foot in cities like New York and Boston. Millions have faced dangerous wind chills and more than 750,000 power outages as communities brace for prolonged recovery. Emergency responders continue urging caution as the storm’s effects linger, underscoring warnings that extreme cold remains a leading cause of weather‑related fatalities across the U.S.  

Meanwhile, Tracy Morgan became the focus of intense online conversation after a viral video captured him confronting a man who asked him for money—someone Morgan claimed bullied him in their youth. The exchange sparked widespread debate over compassion, boundaries, and celebrity responsibility, with Morgan asserting he “doesn’t owe” the individual anything. In entertainment news, Anthony Anderson confirmed his relationship with longtime friend Rocsi Diaz, sharing that the two have been close for 20 years and are now happily exploring a romantic chapter together. The episode closed on a solemn note, reflecting on the life and legacy of gospel icon Richard Smallwood, whose music‑filled funeral drew thousands celebrating his profound impact on worship, composition, and global gospel culture.
