Beginning this Monday, don't miss an all-new half-hour Sesame Street special on Netflix and PBS.

In the "Storm on Sesame Street" special, Elmo and his friends work together to get ready for a big storm, learning how to be prepared, have courage, and calm their bodies and minds when things feel scary. After the storm passes, Sesame Street looks different, and everyone pitches in to help their neighbors rebuild their homes. With the help of the neighborhood, including celebrity guests Post Malone and Michelle Buteau, Elmo and Abby set out to make a difference, and discover that small acts of kindness, and support from friends, can make the biggest difference of all.

Storm on Sesame Street builds on the legacy and impact of the iconic "Sesame Street Gets Through a Storm", which premiered in 2001 on PBS KIDS and re-aired in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina (2005) and Superstorm Sandy (2012).

I like how they expanded the Storm storyline in this instead of only focusing on the 1 damaged thing.

It was an emotional special unlike the hurricane story arc that came on DVD in 2005. I feel like doing the cha cha and quacking like ducks. The storm was terrifying. Elmo was on a mission to find some things to help get through the storm. After the storm, everything is a mess. Grover went to the moon so storms couldn't find him, but his rocket was destroyed at blast off. Abby and Elmo try to help make the street home sweet home. After cleaning up they have a big feast.
