Banks and S&Ls cautious over new money markets
Banks and savings institutions discuss the impact of new money market accounts. Estimates vary on how much will come from existing deposits, with as much as 80 percent from current accounts and about half from established savings. Regulators are still changing rules and lenders aim to channel funds to local loans, though optimism is tempered by Lorain County’s economy.

East Coast snowstorm disrupts travel and claims lives
A major snowstorm battered the Eastern Seaboard, forcing airport and road closures from North Carolina to Maine. The weekend system brought rain sleet and snow, caused widespread power outages, and left about 500 tourists stranded on Nantucket Island. At least seven deaths were attributed to icy roads in several states, and a Maine fishing vessel reported five crew rescued after a life raft evacuation amid 40 mph winds 90 miles off Chatham Mass.
