What We Know About the Winter Storm About to Hit the US--and What We Don't A huge portion of the United States is going to be hit with snow or freezing rain this weekend. Exactly where, what, and how much remains uncertain. Over the past weekend, when weather models first started forecasting a winter storm that would sweep over large parts of the country, Sean Sublette, a meteorologist living in Virginia, started telling people in his area to prepare for snow . At the time, Sublette says, "a lot of the data started to point to a substantial snow storm for the mid-Atlantic and the Northeast, with significant ice farther southward into Carolina's Tennessee Valley." Then, Sublette woke up Wednesday morning.

Here's What to Know About Poland Shooting Down Russian Drones On Wednesday morning, Poland shot down several Russian drones that entered its airspace--a first since Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

Early Wednesday morning, Poland shot down several Russian drones that had violated its airspace during a massive strike against western Ukraine . The Polish military operation, confirmed by Prime Minister Donald Tusk through a social media message in the early morning hours, marks a turning point in Warsaw's involvement in the conflict that has affected the region for more than two and a half years.

Fox News correspondent Molly Line has more on the search to rescue the five individuals on the Titanic voyage on'Special Report.' BOSTON – Three new vessels arrived "on-scene" in the Atlantic Ocean Wednesday morning to join search and rescue efforts for the missing OceanGate Titan sub as the estimated oxygen supply on board continues to dwindle. The U.S. Coast Guard said the new vessels bring additional tools to scan the ocean floor as they race against the clock to save the five people onboard: OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, British businessman Hamish Harding, father-and-son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, who are members of one of Pakistan's wealthiest families, and Paul-Henry Nargeolet, a former French navy officer and leading Titanic expert. "The John Cabot has side-scanning sonar capabilities and is conducting search patterns alongside the Skandi Vinland and the Atlantic Merlin," the Coast Guard said. The John Cabot is a Canadian coast guard vessel, the Atlantic Merlin is a Canadian remotely operated vehicle (ROV), and the Skandi Vinland is a commercial ROV, authorities said.

Employees of Activision Blizzard, the video game company that produces World of Warcraft and Call of Duty, staged a walkout Wednesday morning to call for better working conditions as the company faces allegations of a "frat boy" culture and severe harassment and discrimination against female workers. The California department of fair employment and housing (DFEH) filed a lawsuit against the company last week after a two-year investigation found widespread sexual harassment, retaliation and discrimination and that the video game maker "fostered a sexist culture" in which female employees earn less than males doing similar work. Just 20% of Activision Blizzard's 9,500 employees are women, and leadership at the company, one of the largest video game makers in the world, is largely white and male. Hundreds of workers gathered outside the company's headquarters in Irvine, California, Wednesday morning while others, unable to attend in person, took part in a virtual protest. A few hundred employees have gathered at the #ActiBlizzWalkout, exceeding the 100 or so organizers expected.

What is your hospital currently spending on overhead costs? Chances are it's closer to 25%. According to a study by The Commonwealth Fund, administrative costs account for 25.3% of hospitals budgets. This is money that does not typically improve patient care, but rather is associated with IT, scheduling or billing. There are multiple ways to reduce these costs by using different AI or IoT methodologies.

Chicago O'Hare International Airport had the highest number of flight disruptions Wednesday morning as a massive winter storm made its way across the U.S. It will bring snow, rain and an "icy mix" to parts of the Midwest and East on Wednesday evening. As of Wednesday morning, more than 2,000 flights in the Midwest and Northeast had been canceled, and another 3,000 delayed because of the storm, according to FlightAware. The flight-tracking website showed Chicago O'Hare as the worst place for disruptions between 7 and 11 a.m. CST, with 51 flights canceled and 163 delayed. Baltimore-Washington, Reagan National and Dulles airports in the Washington area also showed significant flight problems, with a combined total of 84 flights canceled and 51 delayed as of Wednesday morning.

On Wednesday morning, in Britain's House of Commons, Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour Party leader, rose to ask Prime Minister Theresa May a question. The night before, Parliament had passed an amendment expressing approval for the Brexit withdrawal agreement that May had painstakingly negotiated with the European Union, on one condition: that she renegotiate it. The amendment had been proposed by one of May's fellow Tories, Sir Graham Brady, and passed with her government's support. It demanded that she go straight to Brussels and tell the Europeans to ditch the part of the agreement dealing with the border between Northern Ireland, which is part of Britain, and the Republic of Ireland, which is a member of the E.U.--the most vexed aspect of Brexit. Those provisions would be replaced with what the Brady amendment, mysteriously and Britishly, refers to only as "alternative arrangements."

Mark Carney knows how to illustrate economic trends through the use of creative language. And when he talks, people tend to listen. "The massacre of the Dilberts" was how the governor of the Bank of England encapsulated the fear that middle-management jobs would be wiped out by automation – for people unfamiliar with American cartoon strips, Dilbert is a white collar office worker and the strip mocks the absurdities of office life. In his native Canada this week, Carney made a number of points in a speech on automation. Most obviously, many office jobs done by people would be done by computers, a process that was already well advanced. "When I look back 30 years ago, what I used to do in the City of London when I worked at an investment bank, probably about three-quarters of what I did is now done by machine," he said.
