Morning Headlines: Unlicensed Cannabis Shops Shut Down, New Jersey Grid Authority Delays Solar Project, Hurricane Erin's Trajectory

from NYC NOW · host WNYC

Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz says six weed shops were padlocked following undercover buys and coordinated raids over the past month. Meanwhile, New Jersey has 33 large-scale solar energy projects ready to break ground, but PJM says the projects won't be greenlit until at least late-2026. Finally, Hurricane Erin will likely bring dangerous conditions to our shores. The storm remains hundreds of miles away from New York City, with no forecast indicating it will make landfall.
