❄️📊 By The Numbers: NYC’s Massive Blizzard Response

New York remains under a State of Emergency with a hazardous travel advisory in effect through midnight. Mayor Zohran Mamdani said city agencies have been “working nonstop” to keep New Yorkers safe.

Here’s the citywide breakdown:

• 2,600 sanitation workers deployed on every 12-hour shift
• 2,300+ plows mobilized, including 700 salt spreaders
• 800 emergency snow shovelers deployed this morning (575 overnight)
• 50+ million pounds of salt distributed
• 99.5% of city streets plowed at least once
• 22 warming buses, 11 hospital warming spaces, 13 school warming centers open
• 100 additional low-barrier stabilization beds opened in Upper Manhattan
• 8,000 of 11,000 Rockaways customers have had power restored

Officials say the coordinated effort reflects a “whole of government” response to the historic storm.
