See you next week, #CentralJersey! www.amdancing.com #dancelife #AMCNJ #LiveLifeDancing #WinterIsHere ・・・ #Repost @readynj (@get_repost) ・・・ Governor Murphy has announced a State of Emergency beginning @ 12:00PM tomorrow, Saturday, January 19, 2019. The State Emergency Operations Center will be activated as of 12:00PM Saturday, January 19, 2019, as well. NJ State law allows the Governor & County & Local Emergency Management Coordinators to declare a State of Emergency during significant weather events & natural disasters. The emergency declaration is a tool used by the government officials who are managing the emergency. It allows State agencies to quickly respond to needs of citizens, reassign personnel, & deploy vehicles, trucks, & equipment to respond to the incident. A State of Emergency allows the government to act more quickly than it can during non-emergency times. When a State of Emergency is issued, State &/or local Emergency Management officials will communicate with New Jersey’s citizens through traditional media outlets such as television, radio & newspapers, & through other information channels, such as the Internet, social media or the Emergency Alert System. Citizens should pay close attention to news reports when a State of Emergency is announced. At times, travel restrictions are part of a State of Emergency. This is typically done to allow snowplows to clear the roads. At other times government offices may be closed, or evacuations may be recommended. A State of Emergency permits government officials to recommend specific actions that citizens should take to insure the safety of their families & homes during the emergency. Each emergency is different, & different factors will impact the decisions made by State officials in response to the incident. #ReadyNJ #NJSP #newjerseystatepolice #statepolicenj #njstatepolice #emergencymanagement #winter #WinterSafety #bundleup #snow https://www.instagram.com/p/BszTrirlRwP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qabz0dlq85b1
