The Department of Sanitation has deployed over 1,600 plow vehicles ahead of Friday's snow in New York City. 

DSNY is reminding everyone that it is preparing for a “decent” storm. It says the morning commute may be a bit sloppy because of the timing of the storm. 

Despite COVID outages, DSNY said its staff is adequate for the storm. 

It said 22% of its workers are out and that people are working 12-hour shifts. 

DSNY is reminding New Yorkers not to push snow in bike lanes.
