New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

NEW YORK (AP) — Mayor Michael Bloomberg is urging people to leave work a little early.

Bloomberg also said Friday that New York City hopes to have all streets plowed at least once by midmorning Saturday.

Residents can view the progress with a plow-tracker on the city's web site.

Bloomberg suggested that residents check on ailing or elderly neighbors and see if there's anything they need.
