Last year, 15,000 nurses in Minnesota walked out for three days. More than 7,000 nurses at Mount Sinai Hospital and Montefiore Bronx began striking at 6 a.m. after talks to avert a strike failed overnight. - Mount Sinai began transferring babies from its neonatal intensive care unit in preparation for the strike, CNN reports.
Mount Sinai Hospital leaders said they're offering wage increases to their nurses that have been ratified at six other hospitals. | | | | 2. "Most potent" storm yet | Satellite image showing a powerful atmospheric river hitting California today.

There is no end in sight to these storms through the end of the month. Cars are submerged in floodwater after heavy rain moved through Windsor, Calif., today.

Licensed by Axios | | Noma — the Copenhagen restaurant that repeatedly topped lists of the world's best and drew "gastro tourists" to Denmark just for the $500 tasting menu — will close for regular service at the end of 2024 due to economics, The New York Times' Julia Moskin reports (subscription). - The creator, René Redzepi, said the math of compensating nearly 100 employees fairly isn't workable.
- "We have to completely rethink the industry," he told The Times. "This is simply too hard, and we have to work in a different way."
Noma, which has three Michelin stars, says that in 2025, it'll transform into a giant lab — "a pioneering test kitchen dedicated to the work of food innovation and the development of new flavors, one that will share the fruits of our efforts more widely than ever before." - Periodic pop-ups are planned. Products will be available through an e-commerce site, Noma Projects.
