NYC Public Schools to Implement Remote Learning Due to Snowstorm

Mayor Eric Adams announces remote learning for Tuesday as New York City braces for up to 8 inches of snow.

New York City public schools will switch to remote learning on Tuesday in anticipation of a snowstorm expected to bring 5-8 inches of snow, with potential for locally higher amounts.
Mayor Eric Adams made the announcement on Monday, citing winter weather forecasts and the need to ensure student safety.
A winter storm watch is in effect from early Tuesday morning until the evening, with winds up to 40 mph expected.
This shift to remote learning continues the city's use of online classes as an alternative to canceling school during weather emergencies, a practice adopted during the pandemic.
Alternate side parking will be suspended on Tuesday, but parking meters will remain in effect. A travel advisory will be issued for Monday night into Tuesday.
