What the coverage shows
All five outlets frame the story as a live weather event centered on rain, coastal flooding and strong winds along the Northeast, with the New York Times, CNN and the first Independent headline emphasizing forecast or arrival language. Fox News and the later Independent update foreground impacts more sharply, naming power outages and flight delays, while CBS adds a second weather story in Hawaii in the same headline. Only The Independent’s first extract explicitly mentions climate change making the storm stronger.
