PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Parts of northern New England have been digging out from up to two feet of snow that fell overnight.

Maine's largest utility says fully resorting power to people who lost electricity will be a "multiple-day recovery effort."

GRANBY, Colo. (AP) — Investigators are trying to determine how a Texas woman fell to her death from a chairlift at a small Colorado ski resort. The lift at Ski Granby Ranch remains closed today but the rest of the resort is open. The 40-year-old woman's two daughters were also injured after falling about 20 feet. The fatal fall is the first in the state in over a decade.

NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) — Bill Cosby wants to move his trial out of a suburban Philadelphia courthouse, arguing there's been widespread negative press coverage of the sexual assault case.
