Emergency Declaration Approved For New York State

United States President Joe Biden has approved an emergency declaration allowing federal support for New York State.

The move comes as media reports say at least 28 people have died in western New York state, most in Buffalo, and brings to 56 in total as a severe winter storm continues to affect North America.

A state official said some people had been trapped in cars for more than two days.

Meteorologists warn up to nine more inches of snow are expected in parts of the state on Tuesday.

The storm has stretched from Canada to Mexico.
