Snow Shuts NYC Parks

Notify NYC has issued the following alert:

ALERT issued 10/29/11 at 8:00 PM. No one should enter any City Park until further notice. Heavy snow and strong wind gusts, combined with full leaves still on trees, are damaging thousands of trees in parks throughout the City. This is creating an elevated and ongoing danger of falling branches and trees. City crews are working to address the damage and will continue throughout the storm.

Stay home tonight folks. Or at least stay out of the parks.  It’s dangerous and slippery out there.
