(NEW YORK) — Much of the U.S. will see above-average temperatures this week, except for the Northeast, where a below-average cold will prevail.
The Northeast will thaw out from the life-threatening cold that invaded this weekend. On Sunday morning, New York City plunged to its coldest temperature in three years, recording a low of 3 degrees.
Much of the East Coast, from Maine to North Carolina, remains under cold weather advisories for subzero wind chills through Monday morning.
The Northeast will get some relief by Monday afternoon, reaching 32 degrees in New York City and 34 degrees in Washington, D.C.
Elsewhere in the U.S., temperatures will be above average this week.
Record daily highs are possible on Monday, from 74 degrees in Nebraska to 65 degrees in Atlanta, while in Texas, temperatures will jump to the 80s.
By Friday, much of the nation, from Texas to the Midwest, will be enjoying warmer-than-normal temperatures.
While the Northeast will be warmer than the brutal blast that struck this weekend, temperatures will stay below average, with 35 degrees forecast for New York City and 41 degrees forecast for D.C. on Friday.

We knew Charlie Puth was going to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl on Sunday, but we didn’t know Lady Gaga would pop up during the halftime show to perform “Die With a Smile.” Both artists have now taken to Instagram to reflect on their performances.
Charlie performed the anthem while accompanied by two choirs, a small orchestra and Kenny G — who appears on Charlie’s upcoming album — on saxophone. He wrote on his Instagram Story, “Thank you everyone for your kind words. It was an honor to sing The National Anthem. I wrote the arrangement in a very specific way to honor Whitney Houston — I hope that was heard.”
Whitney’s version of the anthem, which she performed in 1991 at Super Bowl XXV, is often cited as one of the best renditions ever. It was even released as a single amid the Gulf War and reached #20 on the Billboard Hot 100. Rereleased to capture the patriotic spirit after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, it reached #6.
Charlie went on to thank the choirs, the orchestra and Kenny, as well as producer, composer and musical director Adam Blackstone, for “writing such a beautiful choir part.”
“I love music so much,” he concluded. “Also Bad Bunny was incredible. Goodnight!!”
As for Gaga, she wrote on Instagram, “It was my absolute honor to be a part of Benito’s halftime show. Thank you Benito for inviting me and thank you to the entire cast for welcoming me onto your stage. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.” Gaga, of course, headlined the halftime show herself in 2017.
Gaga also posted images from the Super Bowl ad she appeared in for Pokémon, which wasn’t announced ahead of time. In the pics, she poses with her favorite Pokémon, Jigglypuff.

(NEW YORK) — Faced with a demand for a bitcoin ransom and a Monday deadline by someone claiming to be her mother’s kidnapper, “Today” host Savannah Guthrie and her siblings over the weekend solemnly pledged to pay for the return of their mother, Nancy.
“We received your message and we understand,” Savannah Guthrie said in a message posted to Instagram. “We beg you now to return our mother to us so we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay.”
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was last seen Jan. 31, and authorities have said they believe she was abducted from her home near Tucson, Arizona.
“We are aware of the video posted by the Guthrie family. But don’t have any additional information to share,” a spokesperson for Pima Sheriff said in a statement to ABC News on Saturday following the release of the latest video from the family.
The message Savannah Guthrie references in her new Instagram post is the same message the FBI and Pima Sheriff said they were studying Friday, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
Investigators have not confirmed the authenticity of the latest message, which was received by a Tucson television station, nor any of the other ransom notes mentioning Nancy Guthrie, according to the source.
Investigators have returned repeatedly to the home of Annie Guthrie, Nancy’s other daughter, were Nancy enjoyed dinner and a Saturday game night before returning to her home a few minutes away.
Investigators have also returned to Nancy’s home, where they’ve examined rooftop cameras, towed away a car and made inquiries of neighbors.
The sheriff’s department said, “This remains an active and ongoing investigation,” but added that, after more than a week, “Investigators have not identified any suspects, persons of interest, or vehicles connected to this case.”

(LONDON) — At least three people in Ukraine were killed in Russian overnight drone and missile strikes, the Interior Ministry in Kyiv reported on Monday, as Moscow continued its nightly long-range bombardment campaign.
Ukraine’s air force said Russia launched 149 drones and 11 ballistic missiles into the country from Sunday evening into Monday morning, of which 116 drones and an undetermined number of missiles were shot down or suppressed. The air force said that the impacts of 23 drones and some missiles were recorded across 15 locations.
A woman and a 10-year-old boy were killed when a Russian drone hit the town of Bogodukhiv, around 35 miles northwest of the city of Kharkiv, the Interior Ministry said in a post to Telegram. Three other people were injured, it added.
Another person was killed by a Russian drone attack on the southern Black Sea port city of Odesa, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service (SES) said in a Telegram post. Two other people were injured, the SES said.
Elsewhere, the Interior Ministry said that nine people were injured by a Russian strike on a residential area in Shakhtarsk, in the central Dnipropetrovsk region.
The latest round of strikes came soon after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy again called for more Western aid to replenish and expand the country’s air defense network, which is called into service every night by long-range Russian attacks.
On Sunday, several Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv, Zelenskyy said. “Each of our partners must recognize their strength, their ability to support Ukraine and protect lives,” the Ukrainian president said in posts to social media.
“Missiles for air defense are needed every single day. Protection against Russian ballistic attacks is needed every single day,” Zelenskyy added. “No country in the world should be left alone and without assistance under such strikes and in such a war.”
Russia’s Defense Ministry, meanwhile, said its forces shot down at least 71 Ukrainian drones overnight into Monday morning.
Flight operations at two airports — one in Russia’s southern city of Volgograd and the other in the western city of Kaluga — were temporarily paused, Russia’s federal air transport agency said.
Zelenskyy on Sunday defended Ukraine’s attacks deep inside Russia. Kyiv has said in recent months that its drone and missile strikes are focused on the Russian energy sector, which Zelenskyy described as “a legitimate target.”
“We do not have to choose whether we strike a military target or energy,” Zelenskyy said while addressing students at the National Aviation University in Kyiv. “He sells this energy. He sells oil. So is it energy, or is it a military target? Honestly, it’s the same thing. He sells oil, takes the money, invests it in weapons. And with those weapons, he kills Ukrainians.”
Zelenskyy said that left Ukraine with two options: “We either build weapons and strike their weapons. Or we strike the source where their money is generated and multiplied. And that source is their energy sector. That is what is happening. All of this is a legitimate target for us.”
Both sides have continued long-range strikes despite recent U.S.-led peace efforts. Last week saw American, Ukrainian and Russian negotiators meet for a second round of trilateral talks in the United Arab Emirates, with all three participants describing the meetings as productive.
But the talks did not appear to achieve a breakthrough on several contentious points. Among the most difficult are the fate of Ukraine’s partially-occupied eastern Donbas region, the nature of post-war Western security guarantees for Ukraine and control of the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in the south of the country.
On Friday, Zelenskyy told journalists that the U.S. proposed hosting the next round of trilateral talks, “likely in Miami, in a week.” Zelenskyy said the Ukrainian side “confirmed our participation.”
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, meanwhile, said in an interview with the TV BRICS outlet that Moscow sees no “bright future” in its future economic relations with the U.S.
U.S. President Donald Trump, presidential peace envoy Steve Witkoff and Russian negotiator Kirill Dmitriev — who is also the CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund — have all suggested that a peace deal in Ukraine could facilitate a lucrative new era for American-Russian economic cooperation.
But Lavrov alleged that the U.S. had “declared their goal of economic dominance,” according to quotes published by the state-run Tass news agency.
Lavrov also explicitly criticized Trump’s administration for failing to roll back the punitive sanctions imposed on Moscow as a response to its February 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, an operation that followed eight years of aggression beginning with Russia’s seizure of Crimea in 2014.
Trump has threatened more sanctions and tariffs on Russia if Moscow fails to make a deal with Ukraine to end its war, which this month will turn four years old.

Looking at the title, it might be easy to dismiss Bailey Zimmerman‘s latest single, “Chevy Silverado,” as just another country song about a truck.
But for the “Backup Plan” hitmaker, it goes much deeper than that.
“It’s crazy. That song has taken me three years to write,” he tells ABC Audio. “It took me three years to get that perfect and, you know, tuned up, I guess you’d say. And I really didn’t even know if people were gonna like it because it was kind of a more personal song to me.”
“I thought maybe it’d just be one of those my deep fans would love,” he continues. “But to see it going to country radio was just like, ‘This is actually crazy.’ I did not expect this at all, zero percent. So it’s really cool. It was a big, big surprise.”
You’ll find Bailey’s tale of love lost on his sophomore album, Different Night Same Rodeo.
He’s set to kick off the tour of the same name Feb. 19 at Hertz Arena in Estero, Florida.
Alex Warren’s Little Orphan Alex Live tour (Live Nation)
If you wondered how Alex Warren got Jennifer Aniston to appear in his tour announcement video as a judge, it’s because he and the former Friends star are actually, well, friends.
Alex tells Billboard that “Jen,” as he calls her, has been a pal of his “for a little while now,” though he doesn’t explain how they first met. “It’s just been such a cool thing that she said yes to that,” he adds.
Alex also shares that he wrote the script for the hilarious tour announcement, which finds him defending himself in court against Little Orphan Annie — she’s upset that he wants to call his tour Little Orphan Alex. At the end, Max Greenfield comes into the courtroom and reveals that Annie is not actually an orphan because he’s her father. Judge Aniston then rules in Alex’s favor.
“I was so nervous for her to read my first script I’ve ever written. So, when she read it and she loved it, it was really reassuring,” Alex says. “I was like, ‘No, no, tell me the truth. Tell me you hate it.’ And she loved it, and she didn’t change anything. I thought that was the coolest thing in the world.”
“I was just so thankful that she loved it and she wanted to be in it, and very thankful for her friendship,” he adds. “So, it’s been cool. It’s a weird, pinch-me moment whenever I get a text from her, and it’ll say, like, ‘A text from Jennifer Aniston,’ and I’m like, “Holy f***!’”
At one point in the video, Jennifer mistakes Alex for Ed Sheeran, who’s also a friend of his. Ed happens to be close with Jennifer’s friend Courteney Cox, so maybe that’s how they connected. Hey, who really understands the mechanics of celebrity friendship?
