00:00Now, this is a storm that will also bring with it significant amounts of precipitation.
00:05It will carry a cold front as well.
00:07And that is why we have enacted a code blue now in effect, which has been in effect since last night.
00:15This means that homeless services outreach workers have been and will continue to canvas the five boroughs
00:21so that we are connecting homeless New Yorkers with shelter and bringing them out of the cold.
00:25DHS is going to be bypassing the intake operation procedures just to ensure that we are getting people into these shelters as quickly as possible.
00:34No one is going to be denied across the city.
00:37And finally, while we are still waiting to make a final decision on whether school will be in-person or virtual,
00:44we will communicate that decision to families by noon on Sunday.
00:48That is going to be a decision between in-person learning and remote learning.
00:51I have to apologize to the students that were hoping for a different answer.
00:55For a traditional snow day, that will not be the case.
