🌡️ Heads up, NYC: heat builds Thursday and Friday, feeling like 95 to 100°F (about 35 to 38°C), with scattered storms possible through Friday evening.
NYC Emergency Management is coordinating the City's heat and storm response, and we want every New Yorker to have a Cool Option.
Find your Cool Option:
❄️ A Cool Option is any air-conditioned space where you can get relief: a library, a mall, a museum, a café, or the home of a friend or family member with AC.
🏛️ Official NYC Cooling Centers are free and open in every borough, activated beginning Thursday. Find the nearest one at https://t.co/04ULpqxfIY or call 311.
💧 Drink water before you feel thirsty, take breaks in the shade, and check on neighbors and older adults without AC.
Stay storm-ready:
⛈️ Hear thunder? Head indoors and off rooftops and away from scaffolding
🌳 Watch for falling trees and branches, especially where last weekend's storm left damage. Steer clear of downed limbs and power lines.
🌊 In a basement and water starts coming in? Get to a higher floor or outside right away. Do not wait to see how high it rises.
🚗 Never walk or drive through flooded streets. Turn around, don't drown.

In the hours and days after flash flooding, NYCEM offers the following tips from https://t.co/3t3I1pb2xQ
Stay out of flooded basements. Standing water near electrical equipment is life-threatening.
Do not walk or drive through standing water. Even after rain stops, flooded streets can remain dangerous and may conceal hazards. After excessive rainfall events, streets and underpasses may stay flooded for hours.
Wash thoroughly if you touched floodwater. Floodwater can carry sewage, bacteria, and other contaminants. Wash your hands and any exposed skin with soap and water.
Clean affected surfaces with a bleach solution. When cleaning up after a flood, disinfect surfaces with a diluted bleach solution under proper ventilation. Never mix bleach and ammonia — the combination creates dangerous fumes.
Throw away food that touched floodwater. Do not eat or use any food, including canned goods, that came into contact with floodwater.
Watch for mold. Mold can begin growing within 24–48 hours after flooding — and excessive rainfall that causes slow seepage into walls or floors can create mold conditions even without visible standing water. If your home has mold or you need cleanup help, contact 311.
Pump out flooded basements slowly. Remove about one-third of the water per day — not all at once. Water-saturated soil outside your walls creates pressure, and removing water too quickly can cause walls to crack or collapse. This is especially important after prolonged rainfall, when surrounding soil may be heavily saturated.
Document damage before cleaning up. Take photos and videos of all damage before removing water or debris. This will help with insurance claims and disaster assistance applications.
Check on your neighbors. After a flood, check on elderly neighbors, people with disabilities, and anyone in basement apartments or low-lying units who may need extra help.
NYC's sewer system was built to handle 1.75"/hour but yesterday's storm brought the equivalent of 6"/hour in some areas. Our crews worked overnight to respond and are continuing today. Report clogged catch basins here: https://t.co/3xcn9B9sn8
An Air Quality Health Advisory is in effect for NYC today, May 18, due to ozone.
Young children, older adults, and people with heart or breathing conditions should avoid strenuous and prolonged outdoor activities: https://t.co/3uEcf9Ayfj
