""This will be New York City's first old school snow day since 2019," Mamdani said at a news conference."
"Heavy snowfall and blizzard conditions are expected Sunday afternoon as meteorologists are estimating between one and two feet of snow and wind gusts of up to 60 miles per hour."
""I know that this may disappoint some students. So, if you do see me, feel free to throw a snowball at me.""
New York City public schools will be closed Monday with no online classes because of an incoming blizzard. Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the closure during a Facetime call with a public school student that appeared on social media. Meteorologists forecast one to two feet of snow and wind gusts up to 60 miles per hour beginning Sunday afternoon. The decision marks the city's first traditional snow day since 2019. The mayor previously required remote classes during a major January storm that left about 11 inches and caused some technology outages for families and schools.
