Mayor Landrieu and officials from city emergency services agencies provided an update Monday afternoon on the preparations underway in advance of this week's winter storm.
The storm is expected to have a severe impact on the region, shuttering businesses, schools and offices; engendering power outages; and making many roads and bridges impassible.
City residents are urged to visit the NOLA Ready emergency website for more information as it becomes available.
