Housing Shortage Could Cost NY Politically

Lawrence Levy, associate vice president and executive dean of the National Center for Suburban Studies, was interviewed by the Investigative Post for the article: “Housing shortage could cost New York politically.” New York’s persistent housing shortage, driven in part by restrictive local zoning and slow homebuilding, is contributing to population loss that could cost the state two U.S. House seats after the 2030 Census as people relocate to more affordable areas. Levy said that because housing policy is handled town by town, many communities “become villages of no,” resisting new housing and exacerbating the problem.

Blizzard of ’26 – One for the History Books

“The blizzard of ‘26 will be remembered in meteorology circles,” Dr. Jase Bernhardt told Newsday about the historic storm this week that dropped approximately 30 inches of snow on parts of Long Island. The Hofstra University associate professor of geology, environment, and sustainability and director of meteorology explained the blizzard hit what’s known as the “70/40 benchmark." That’s 40 degrees north latitude and 70 degrees west longitude, geographic coordinates for a spot over the Atlantic Ocean: “That’s the sweet spot,” said Dr. Bernhardt. “Say it tracks 50 miles south and east, that means the heaviest snow shifts farther away. If it tracks closer, oftentimes, it’s bringing in warm air closer to the center [of the storm], and if it tracks too close, it might yield heavy precipitation, but it’s going to be too warm for all snow.”
