"New Yorkers will hear the rumble of snow plows on their streets Sunday, if the forecasters are right. They can also track where, when, and how often those plows have visited their blocks. Snow will start falling early Sunday morning, according to the National Weather Service, and continue through Monday afternoon, with the heaviest accumulation predicted on Sunday afternoon and evening. City officials have said the city is well-prepared for the snow, especially for keeping roadways"
"from highways to quiet side streets clear and as safe as possible. A fleet of 2,200 snow plows, which Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Friday described as the nation's largest snow fighting operation, will be dispatched when two inches of snow have accumulated, likely on Sunday morning, the mayor said. Snow plows and salt spreaders will begin making their rounds on Sunday morning."
Heavy snow is expected beginning early Sunday and continuing through Monday afternoon, with the heaviest accumulation Sunday afternoon and evening. The city deployed a fleet of 2,200 snow plows and salt spreaders that will be dispatched once two inches of snow accumulate. Each truck is outfitted with GPS so officials and the public can track plow locations and visit times. PlowNYC provides a live, searchable color-coded map showing how recently streets were plowed in three-hour intervals. Major roads, including sections of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and Queens Boulevard, showed recent visits, likely by brining trucks that spray a salt-and-water solution to reduce accumulation and ice.
