Mayor Brandon Scott discussed Baltimore's preparations for an impending significant snowstorm, expected to bring 6-18 inches of snow and sub-freezing temperatures for a week.
He emphasized the importance of staying home, being patient, and helping neighbors, especially the elderly and vulnerable.
The city has declared a state of emergency, activated an extreme cold alert, and mobilized over 700 pieces of equipment for snow removal.
Residents are advised to stock up on essentials, keep fire safety measures in mind, and use 311 for non-emergency information. Public transportation and school closures will be announced later.
