Crews at the ready to fix power outages but Hochul urges patience
More than 6,000 utility workers are ready to respond to power outages related to the storm, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Sunday, but she urged people to be patient if they lose power because repairs can take some time.
Those planning to venture out should "keep track of your local forecast" and travel bans, she said.
Anyone can text 333111 to get local emergency weather updates.
We have plenty of salt in our stockpiles" for spreading on roads, Hochul added at a news conference in Albany.
'It's personal to me' The law would require businesses to have proper state licensing, prove that their employees are paid and ban staff from living at the spas or sleeping there overnight. Repeat offenders could face penalties up to $25,000. NewsdayTV's Shari Einhorn has more.
