The death toll from the major winter storm that pummeled New York City with snow, ice and frigid temperatures has risen to at least 10, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said on Tuesday.
The mounting fatalities come amid what is widely regarded as the first true management test of Mr. Mamdani’s tenure, which began Jan. 1. He ran for office promising to run a government of technocratic excellence, and his communication efforts during the storm earned praise.
