"Make some soup? Turn on the fire? Nah. New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) had a better idea for how his constituents can weather the winter storm hitting The Big Apple. Stay home this is a good baby-making day, Adams told local ABC 7 on Saturday morning, when asked what New Yorkers should do. That suggestion drew an immediate reaction from the Eyewitness News This Saturday Morning anchors. Ahhh! co-anchor Toni Yates could be heard exclaiming off-camera, before her and co-anchor Pedro Rivera started chuckling."
"Adams seemed pretty amused with his quip as well, with the outgoing mayor flashing a big grin. Enjoy the weather, he continued. 2,700 sanitation workers have been out there, [working] 12 hour shifts, as you know. My son would say, just do Netflix and chill.' That's all, and just enjoy the day. Rivera then joked a baby boom should be expected around May or June. That's right, Adams added. We wanna improve the population!"
"His math was a little off, though nine months from now would mean the Adams-endorsed baby boom happens around late July and early August. Their fun banter came as NYC is being hit by a big storm that included 4.3 inches of snow falling in Central Park overnight the most since early 2022, ABC 7 reported. Weather services and local weather reporters have also warned about black ice and slippery roads as part of the storm."
Mayor Eric Adams encouraged New Yorkers to stay home during a significant snowstorm and joked that the day was "a good baby-making day." The mayor praised 2,700 sanitation workers working 12-hour shifts and recommended residents relax, using the phrase "Netflix and chill." Anchors reacted with laughter and joked about a baby boom, though the projected timing was calculated inaccurately. Central Park recorded 4.3 inches of snow overnight, the most since early 2022. Weather services warned of black ice and slippery roads. The storm canceled about 1,500 flights and affected multiple East Coast states; snow plows received commendation for clearing roads.
