Closure of schools and transport
Bill de Blasio, the outgoing mayor of the American economic and cultural capital, already ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic, spoke in a tweet of a “historic meteorological event” by declaring “a state of emergency” in his city. This should lead in particular to the closure of schools and public transport. While neighborhoods like Brooklyn are underwater, the city’s subway is inundated, as are terminals at Newark Airport , where flights are stopped. Impressive videos of events are multiplying on social networks.
