The United Nations, UN, Headquarters complex in New York has been closed as a result of the snow and weather conditions across the U.S.
A statement issued by Marija Rokuiziene of the UN Media Accreditation and Liaison Unit, Department of Public Information, on Friday, stated that all meetings at the headquarters had been cancelled.
Similarly, a state of emergency was declared in New York and New Jersey, ahead of the storm that dumped up to nine inches of snow on parts of New York City.
Six inches of snow had accumulated in Central Park, located in Manhattan, the most densely populated of the five boroughs of New York City and nine inches of snow in Green Point, Brooklyn.
The snow and weather conditions forced over 4,000 flights cancellations, while highways and the New York City school system were also shutdown.
The Mayor of New York, Bill de Blasio, on Friday, advised New Yorkers to remain off the roads and take caution in the cold.
He said, “This has been and remains a dangerous storm. It is going to be bitter cold today, and New Yorkers need to be extremely careful going outdoors.”

The first computer built entirely with carbon nanotubes has been unveiled, opening the door to a new generation of digital devices. "Cedric" is only a basic prototype but could be developed into a machine which is smaller, faster and more efficient than today's silicon models. Nanotubes have long been touted as the heir to silicon's throne, but building a working computer has proven awkward. The breakthrough by Stanford University engineers is published in Nature. Cedric is the most complex carbon-based electronic system yet realised. So is it fast? Not at all. It might have been in 1955. Cedric's vital statistics *.1 bit processor *.Speed: 1 kHz *.178 transistors *.10-200 nanotubes per transistor *.2 billion carbon atoms *.Turing complete *.Multitasking The computer operates on just one bit of information, and can only count to 32. "In human terms, Cedric can count on his hands and sort the alphabet. But he is, in the full sense of the word, ...
