If you missed the meteor sighting over Southeast Michigan early on May 27, perhaps you saw the latest one on Monday night.  A fireball, which is a bright meteor, was seen about 10:42 p.m. Eastern Time on Monday in a wider geographic area around Lake Erie than the one that was seen last week. The American Meteor Society said it received 197 reports from Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Ontario of Monday’s meteor.  The Southeast Michigan reports came from places such as Brighton, Dexter, Detroit, Garden City, Ida, Madison Hights, Marysville, Milan, Smiths Creek and Tucker. 

The meteor view was described as bright blue/green; and the fragments broke up and burned up in the atmosphere.   “That was super cool. I’ve never seen anything like that,” one of the Michigan reports read.  “Several thousand meteors of fireball magnitude occur in the Earth’s atmosphere each day. The vast majority of these, however, occur over the oceans and uninhabited regions, and a good many are masked by daylight,” the American Meteor Society said.

Fire in train car near New York City’s Penn Station injures five and disrupts service

Posted on by Leave a comment

A fire in a rail yard train car near New York’s Penn Station injured five people and disrupted service for many commuters early on Friday, authorities said. The fire resulted in train delays on the New Jersey Transit and Amtrak rail services into New York and briefly suspended Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) service, more than a week after a strike had shut down that system. New Jersey Transit posted on X that it was an Amtrak train car that was on fire “in one of the Hudson River tunnels”. It said the fire resulted in “overhead wire damage”. “Impacts are expected to last through the morning rush hour,” it said. Amtrak posted on X that it suspended its service until at least noon due to maintenance resulting “from a now extinguished fire in the New York area”.

It said lengthy delays were expected for trains traveling north of New York. It did not post any information about the fire itself. An email seeking comment was sent to Amtrak. Fire officials said 100 firefighters responded to the fire early on Friday and that five people were hurt. Two of them were taken to a hospital. Their conditions were not immediately known. Penn Station, underneath Madison Square Garden, can serve roughly 600,000 passengers daily via Amtrak, the New York subway system, New Jersey Transit and the LIRR.

Sixteen people, including 14 firefighters, were injured in a multiple-alarm fire in Queens on Sunday. Three of the injured firefighters were hospitalized, including one in serious condition, fire officials said. Video shows heavy smoke coming from a home at 93rd Street, between Astoria Boulevard and 30th Avenue in East Elmhurst. The FDNY said the fire started just before 3 p.m. on the top floor and quickly grew to four alarms.

“Praying for everyone affected by this devastating fire in East Elmhurst, especially the firefighter seriously injured and all those recovering. Our firefighters run toward danger to protect the rest of us. They deserve every resource, every support, and our gratitude. Holding the families, neighbors, and first responders in my heart today,” state Sen. Jessica Ramos said. It’s unclear the extent of the damage to the home and there was no immediate word on the cause of the blaze.

New Yorkers tired of him do not Support Candidate Backed by Zohran Mamdani: What It Means

Posted on by Leave a comment

A candidate backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has conceded a high-profile city council race for a seat representing parts of Manhattan’s West Side. Carl Wilson’s victory on Tuesday was seen by some as a test of the strength of an endorsement from Mamdani, who has governed with a star power unusual in modern politics since emerging from relative obscurity to win the mayoral election last year. Mamdani had endorsed Lindsay Boylan, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America and the first woman to publicly accuse former Governor Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment, accusations he has denied.

Here are the promises Zohran Mamdani broke in his first 100 days in office

Mamdani’s early viral promise to open city-run grocery stores has all but disappeared from the conversation during his first 100 days in office. The pitch that candidate Mamdani made repeated was that five grocery stores — one in each borough — could sell food to hard-working New Yorkers at wholesale prices if the city covered rent and property taxes. But no such city-owned grocery stores have opened. Instead, Mamdani has just proposed $70 million in new funding for the city’s Economic Development Corporation to scout potential locations for and build the five stores.

1st Palm Sunday Mass under New York Archbishop Ronald Hicks draws thousands to St. Patrick’s Cathedral

Thousands of Catholics went to St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City to celebrate Palm Sunday Mass and mark the start of 2026 Holy Week, the first under Archbishop Ronald Hicks.  Palms inside the Midtown Manhattan cathedral recall the story or Jesus entering Jerusalem, where crowds laid palm branches before him. For Hicks, who was installed in February following Cardinal Timothy Dolan’s retirement, celebrating his first Palm Sunday on Fifth Avenue served as a reminder of the transformation Holy Week stands for.  “What happened, these mysteries we celebrate, gives us the path to salvation, eternal life. It’s the greatest gift ever,” Hicks said. “We celebrated well today, with joy, with prayer, with a great sense of faith.”
