BLIZZARD UPDATE - Travel Ban - MTA Shutdown



  There has been a travel ban announced by Governor Cuomo for the New York City, Long Island, and Westchester County area to begin at 2:30 PM due to the heavy Snow continuing to come down. This means that drives must be off any roads unless it is an emergency, or risk being fined for ignoring the travel ban.

   The MTA has announced that all Metro North trains, Long Island Railroad, and above ground Subway lines will be shut down at 4 P.M. until further notice. Underground subway routes will be in operation until it becomes unable to do so. 

 NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio has said that over two feet of snow can be expected in the NYC area. This is expected to be one of the five worse storms in the history of the city.
