Jan. 18: Fire & Ice

Keep safe, Little Neck. Mother Nature has thrown another curveball at our region in the form of a potentially dangerous mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain this morning.

And to make matters worse for Queens' Bravest, an 8-alarm fire at a Jamaica warehouse overnight — a blaze which reportedly lasted 10 hours and 40 minutes — sent four firemen to the hospital when the structure's roof collapsed.

1. A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 1 p.m. today for our area, with a mix of freezing rain and sleet forecast to change over to plain-old rain later this morning.

2. Alternate side parking regulations remain suspended. Meter rules still apply.

3. Up for some basketball? Samuel Field Y's Adult Basketball League  tonight with games played at 8 p.m., 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. 

4. Parents, don't forget the date: tomorrow's monthly school board meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at P.S. 67. RSVP .

5. Later today, look out for our update on for a store in New York City.
