Notify NYC - Winter Weather Preparedness - 1/18 (NYC)

Notification issued 01-17-2026 at 12:30 PM.

The NYC Emergency Management Department advises New Yorkers to prepare for potential winter weather on Sunday, 1/18. The National Weather Service has forecast 1-3 inches of snow with a 10% chance of 4-5 inches.

City agencies are preparing for the storm, as periods of snow may cause difficult travel conditions and power outages.
  • New Yorkers are advised to limit travel and stay inside during periods of severe weather.
  • If you must travel, exercise caution. Roads and surfaces may be slippery. Use mass transit if possible.
  • If you must go outdoors, wear dry, warm clothing and cover exposed skin. Keep fingertips, earlobes, and noses covered.
  • Check on family, friends, and neighbors who may need help in cold weather – especially older adults or people with disabilities.
