It may be a 'sounds like' indicator - why not post the clue?

can often be the abbreviation of a State - cal, ri, for instance, lots of other possibilities - utter in Flutter.

Trevor has indicated two very commonly used ones (CAL and RI). I think I have seen others, but can't bring them to mind.

I think I have usually seen "US city" for NY (and LA), but "state" would of course be correct as well.
