Smoke from the Canadian wildfires will continue across much of the state today, leading to hazy skies & poor air quality. Check air quality at https://t.co/dzQAppYLZ0.

Severe thunderstorms are expected in areas of the North Country this afternoon. Damaging winds are possible.

New York’s electric grid is under heavy strain as this heat wave drives up energy demand.

We’re asking New Yorkers to voluntarily conserve power by setting your A/C between 75–78°, avoiding unnecessary appliance use, and turning off lights and electronics when they’re not needed.

These small steps can help prevent outages, keep the power on, and protect the most vulnerable members of our communities.

My team is coordinating with Con Edison, NYISO, and New York City leaders to reduce demand across the grid.

❄️ Winter weather is part of life in New York, but this weekend's extreme cold should not be taken lightly.
Please remember to:

✔️ Limit time outdoors
✔️ Always use safe heat sources
✔️ Have emergency supplies in case of power outages

Let’s look out for one another.

The main snowstorm has passed, but light snow showers will continue across NY into tonight. Untreated roads may be slippery. Give snow plows space to work.

Bundle up, wind chills tonight into tomorrow could reach -10 to -24°F in Western NY, the Finger Lakes & the Southern Tier.
