Blizzard Warning - 2/22 & 2/23

The National Weather Service has issued a BLIZZARD WARNING, which is in effect from 1:00 PM on Sunday (2/22/2026) to 6:00 PM on Monday (2/23/2026). Blizzard conditions expected. Total snow accumulations between 12 and 18 inches, with the highest towards the NYC metro. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph.

Visibilities may drop below 1/4 mile due to falling and blowing snow. Whiteout conditions are expected, making travel treacherous and potentially life-threatening. The strong winds and the weight of snow on tree limbs may bring down power lines, causing sporadic power outages. Travel could be very difficult or impossible. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions will impact the Monday morning and evening commutes. Strongest winds are expected Sunday evening through Monday afternoon.

NO PARKING ON SNOW-COVERED STREETS:

According to the Borough of Hasbrouck Heights Code, parking is not permitted on either side of the street when the street is covered with snow. This rule helps ensure that our snow plows can operate efficiently. The parking ban will remain in effect until the snow stops falling and the roads are adequately cleared for safe parking.

HHPD Parking Update:

Due to forecasted snow accumulation, the overnight parking request website will be disabled on Sunday, February 22, and Monday, February 23. 

DPW Update:

Garbage pickup for ZONE 1 is CANCELED for Monday, February 23.
