DSNY Issues Snow Alert for Saturday, December 13 at 7 p.m.

With 1 to 3 inches of snow expected this weekend, New Yorkโ€™s Strongest will begin spreading brine on 700 lane miles of highways at midnight tonight.

The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) has issued a Snow Alert for Saturday, December 13, 2025, beginning at 7 p.m., running through 2 p.m. Sunday. A Snow Alert is the Departmentโ€™s โ€œhigher levelโ€ snow-fighting notification, as opposed to the โ€œlower levelโ€ Winter Operations Advisory.

Precipitation will begin as early as 9 p.m. Saturday, continuing as late as noon Sunday, with heaviest bands of snow likely to fall Sunday between 1 and 5 a.m. Most forecasts anticipate 1 to 3 inches of snow though, as always, New Yorkโ€™s Strongest remain prepared for any amount of precipitation.

DSNY personnel will activate its GPS room โ€” featuring the new Bladerunner 2.0 tracking operation โ€” this evening to begin highway brining operations. Applying brine before snow begins falling helps reduce accumulations on roadways. In past storms of this nature, DSNY has applied brine to highway ramps and shoulders in anticipation of falling snow. This year, with new investments in brine equipment, the Department will not only apply brine to ramps and shoulders, but also the main beds of all highways โ€“ a total of 700 lane miles โ€” starting at midnight tonight.

More than 700 salt spreaders are filled and ready to go, and the Department has approximately 700 million pounds of salt on hand. DSNY will begin spreading salt on roads, highways and bike lanes at the first sign of precipitation, and will begin plowing when and if snow depths reach two inches.

At this time, there is no anticipated change to collection operations Monday, and New Yorkers should continue to follow their regular schedule for trash, recycling, and compostable material unless otherwise notified.

New Yorkers should know: DSNY is working to ensure your safety. Do your part both for yourself and for the Strongest by staying off the roads during active precipitation or, if you absolutely must drive, by doing so slowly, safely and carefully.

In a snow event, New York Cityโ€™s Sanitation Workers cover our streets, highways and bike lanes, but all residents should remember that clearing snow from sidewalks is the property ownersโ€™ responsibility. Property owners must to do their part to make sure that the sidewalks are passable.

All winter weather information and information about the Cityโ€™s response to the storm can be found by visiting the Cityโ€™s Severe Weather website at nyc.gov/snow or by calling 311.

Snow Response - DSNY

In the winter, you can see us spreading salt, plowing, and melting and hauling away snow. But for us, snow response is a year-round process. We plan and organize months before winter weather condition...

To make a preservation argument in favor for these frankly nondescript buildings is to trivialize the cause and undermine its credibility when applied to truly more deserving buildings. A more legitimate cause is to support the continued operation of the business at this or some other location. And if the site is developed for much needed housing under the City of Yes provisions, the height of the structures will not be significantly greater than the scale permitted under the current zoning. Anything greater in density will still require a ULURP discretionary action.

Eddies pickles?????

What street is that?

Eddie sold the building?

This is a circa 1940 historic tax photo, which can prove its potential for a beautiful restoration: 1940s.nyc/map/photo/nynyma_rec0040_4_02675_0040#17.5/40.722284/-73.908631

We need more housing, all over town.

Delicious pickles

Great pickled tomatoes

All about GREED!!! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ’ช

Likely? Or it will?

More likely a foreign private equities firm will buy it and put up multi family residential buildings. The same private equity/hedge fund international investors who face no investigative oversight.

It should be restored and treasured rather than demolished. However, politicians and city agencies have proven that we inhabit an anti-green, anti-history, and anti-small business city.

Yes, it's about overdeveloping areas along the line, and no, that first photo is not of the IBX. It's of the Bushwick line behind the Knockdown Center. ๐Ÿ™„ ... See MoreSee Less

I overheard some hipsters on the G train saying they were going to cut back on their daily matcha for a down-payment in maspeth once this is built !

This article is about someone wanting to go to Middle Village from Brooklyn. Why would he want to go there in the first place? He doesn't work there. Absolutely ridiculous.

My dad used to work in Brooklyn and he had to drive because the train took forever. He had to go into Manhattan to get the Brooklyn. ๏ฟผ

When they designed the train system is all about Manhattan

If the purpose was to get to Brooklyn then why did the MTA stop running the M and J trains to Brooklyn??

Yes

I'm a senior living in Glendale, yesterday I had the audacity to go to Manhattan's upper east side. I took the bus to the M train, to the E train, to the number 6 train. Please excuse for not wanting to see $6 billions being spent on transportation to nowhere.

The Goal of this project is to ruin Middle Village

Hopefully I will be retired and moved out of Middle Village before this train is up and running.

If it’s not broken don’t fix leave our neighborhood the way it is

Just what we need more transportation

If they could put in the rail line without having to find a way to make a profit by taking advantage of the situation, maybe then we would agree to it. seem like they can't make an "improvement" without dipping their hands into the pots, and usually people get hurt in that action. The overdeveloping of our little neighborhood would be detrimental to those who live here and own property here. We've worked hard for years to keep this corner of the city nice and safe for families and now the powers that be all just want to cash in on that and ruin it for us.

๏ฟผ i’m getting out of here going to Mississippi

They will need to REMOVE 250 HOMES on Grand Ave & 74 Street !!!!!!!๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก This article DOES NOT MENTION THAT !

This rail line is a farce and will never be built. It was only 'imagined' by Hochul and Lieber the socialist head of the MTA to enact the zoning changes for more Dem votes and to line their pockets. There is private property, a private rail line, and even a cemetery in play. This thing will get locked up in court for long after the zoning changes are cashed in on and our neighborhoods destroyed. Love how that evil bitch Gov and the MTA find a way to start a civil war to distract everyone, and no one sees what is going on right in front of their eyes? They refuse to see it!
