The Port Authority Bus Terminal is so crowded with commuters waiting for buses amid a massive winter storm that the agency is blocking any more people from entering, officials said.
Officials closed the doors to the facility at about 5:15 p.m. because so many passengers are waiting for buses that arent heading in or out.
Were recommending passengers take trains back to NJ due to weather causing bus delays, said a PA spokesman.
The agency even tweeted that riders should find other ways to get home.

Either take PATH to Newark or Hoboken and switch to an NJT train, or take an NJT train out of Penn Station.

I was riding back to Connecticut on Metro North earlier tonight and just for kicks I fired up the Uber app as the train was leaving Harlem. It was over $200 to Uber to Laguardia!

I always take the lower deck. Force of habit and the view is in fact better.

the media failed to promote / scare us for days in advance of the storm. Seems it was colder than expected .. didnot warm up early in the afternoon and much more heavier precipitation. The Perfect Storm ?/s
