Probably going to be a flyover before the start of the Yankee - Res Sox game. Yankees in 5, by the way....

They are for the National Anthem of the Red Sox-Yankees game.

Practice CAP flights, I'd guess, in preparation for the World Series?

Well, then NYPD is also involved - choppers in the sky as well. Nothing on TV, radio or AP breaking news.
To: Orblivion
It's a 50/50 chance. Pretty good odds for a crystal ball.

Res Sox = Red Sox. Apologies to Boston fans, between having to deal with the Yankess and John Kerry, you've suffered more than any human should......

It's pretty impressive! I live in Gainesville, FL (a pretty unimportant place, although don't tell that to UF and the Gators) and every so often I'll hear an incredible roar and look up to see F-16s clearing the skies because the President is on his way back from some visit to Florida.
It definitely wakes you up!
