The mayor’s first deputy, Lorraine Grillo, who’s acting mayor when her boss is out of town, said Adams decided to take two days off and “get some rest.” Grillo confirmed the mayor is outside of the five boroughs, but wouldn’t disclose where when pressed by reporters several times. Grillo was surrounded by a cadre of administration officials including Deputy Mayor for Strategic Initiatives – and future first deputy mayor – Sheena Wright, city Emergency Management Commissioner Zach Iscol, FDNY Commissioner Laura Kavanagh and several others.Iscol said his agency has been fanned out across the city, along with personnel from other city agencies, throughout the day responding to the damage wrought by the winter storm.
They also readied blocks of hotel rooms ahead of the storm to make sure those were ready for anyone who may need them, he said.
