NYC Treated to Spectacular Sunset Ahead of Powerful Storm
"NYC Treated to Spectacular Sunset Ahead of Powerful Storm" is the clip doing the most work on Storyful News & Weather right now. Filmed by Rob McDonagh and licensed through Storyful, it caught the New York sky lit up just before a nor'easter rolled in, and its tags point to Brooklyn and the rivers on either side of Manhattan.
That is the nature of this channel. Storyful is not a newsroom with anchors but an agency that finds, verifies and licenses footage shot by ordinary people, then passes it to news partners around the world. So its catalog reads like a scrapbook of strangers' phones: a garbage truck dumping its burning load in the street to save the truck, Shakira pledging $1 million to Colombian schools damaged by an earthquake, and a sky over New York turning colors.
No new clips went up in the past seven days, and the channel ran below its usual pace, a little over half a million views for the week. Subscribers held where they were, around 585,000.
Among news channels near its size, the busiest corners were elsewhere: The Financial Express had a very big week, and Palace Confidential and New York Times Podcasts both ran well above their usual pace. SBS News, Janta Ka Reporter and Washington Post Universe were quieter than normal, and so was Storyful, whose back shelf of eyewitness footage carried the week on its own.

A nor'easter, the kind of storm in the sunset clip, gets its name from what?
Nor'easters are named for the northeast winds that blow in from the ocean along the US East Coast as the storm passes.
