Wall Street To Close Tuesday -- January 25, 2015

That's a guess, of course, that Wall Street will be closed Tuesday. But looking at the weather report, it's hard to think otherwise ...
An all-out blizzard will slam the New York City area and New England Monday night through Tuesday, bringing many communities to a standstill.
Those in the Northeast should prepare for the storm now rather than wait until the snow starts to fall, especially for those across New England.
While a clipper system will spread disruptive snow from the Midwest to the mid-Atlantic through Monday, it will explode into a monster snowstorm and blizzard Monday night through Tuesday.
The heavily-populated zone from New York City to Boston to Portland, Maine, will be brought to a standstill with impacts lingering well after the blizzard departs.
Other headlines: 
  • NYC Mayor De Blasio: "could be biggest ever"
  • blizzard blast to make history ... NYC - BOS braced
See disclaimer.

Other news: Clint Eastwood's American Sniper continues to smash box office records; "becoming #1 war film of all time."
American Sniper has set its sights on another record: Within a matter of days, it will overtake Steven Spielberg's WWII classic Saving Private Ryan to become the top-grossing war-themed film of all time in North America, not accounting for inflation.
Clint Eastwood's history-making movie jumped the $200 million mark on Sunday, putting it ahead of Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor, another WWII title topping out at $198.5 million domestically in 2001. American Sniper is distinct from those two film in being set during a modern-day conflict.
Clint Eastwood. Wow.
