UPDATE:

President-elect Donald Trump was formally sentenced Friday in his hush money case, but the judge declined to impose any punishment. The outcome cements Trump’s conviction while freeing him to return to the White House unencumbered by the threat of a jail term or a fine.

What to know:
What is unconditional discharge? Manhattan Judge Juan M. Merchan could have sentenced the 78-year-old to up to four years in prison. Instead, he chose a sentence that sidestepped thorny constitutional issues by effectively ending the case but assured that Trump will become the first person convicted of a felony to assume the presidency.
What did Trump say during the hearing? Trump said his criminal trial and conviction has “been a very terrible experience” and insisted he committed no crime.
A refresher on the case: The hush money case accused Trump of fudging his business’ records to veil a $130,000 payoff to p**n actor Stormy Daniels. She was paid, late in Trump’s 2016 campaign, not to tell the public about a sexual encounter she maintains the two had a decade earlier.

The judge has indicated that he plans the unconditional discharge — a rarity in felony convictions — partly to avoid complicated constitutional issues that would arise if he imposed a penalty that overlapped with Trump’s presidency.

Your radar may show that it is snowing.. But why are you only seeing a few flurries?

That's because the air is very dry out there right now and a lot of this snow is not reaching the ground because of that. Once the air becomes more saturated as the day progresses, the snow will actually reach the ground and lead to heavier snowfall rates. - Dillon Gaudet Weather
