Governor Murphy Declares State of Emergency
TRENTON – Today, Governor Phil Murphy declared that New Jersey will enter a state of emergency beginning Wednesday, February 20, 2019 at 5:00 a.m. ahead of the anticipated winter storm. The storm is expected to start tomorrow and continue throughout the day. Executive Order No. 57 declares a state of emergency across all 21 counties in New Jersey, allowing resources to be deployed throughout the state during the duration of the storm.
“As a winter storm is expected to impact our State, we are urging residents of New Jersey to drive with caution and use their best judgment during this time,” said Governor Murphy. “We are actively monitoring the storm and are prepared to deploy any resources available to ensure the safety of the roads.”
New Jersey is expected to experience several inches of snow that may transition to freezing rain.
To prepare for the winter storm, the New Jersey State Police will activate the State Emergency Operations Center on Wednesday, February 20, 2019 at 5:00 a.m. in order to monitor the storm. The New Jersey Department of Transportation will also deploy more than 2,500 plows and spreaders to keep roads and communities safe.
The Governor encourages New Jerseyans to visit ready.nj.gov for important weather updates and safety information. New Jersey residents should also pay attention to local forecasts, warnings, and watches.

A great job by the Oklahoma City Fire Department returning a motorized chair to a nursing home after a man was stuck by a vehicle. The man was transported to the hospital and the crew wanted to ensure his chair was at the nursing home when he returned from the hospital. Firefighter Matt Marshal drove the chair back with an escort from Engine 24. Excellent work!
We hope everyone enjoys the big game. If you are drinking, please have a sober driver. We do not want to see you tonight under bad circumstances. #staysafe #drivesober #designateddriver
