As a result of the "historic" winter storm that has battered the US and parts of Canada since December 22, New York Governor Kathy Hochul has submitted a request to President Joe Biden for a federal emergency declaration. The Governor's request on Monday comes as the Arctic storm continues to impact Western New York and the North Country regions, with blizzard-like conditions, sustained wind gusts of more than 60 miles per hour.
