Observation: This afternoon at about 4:00 pm I received a NJ Transit email alert that service was suspended in both directions between Penn Station and Secaucus due to "police activity". Secaucus is the last stop before you enter the tunnel into Penn Station. For some reason, they weren't letting trains in or out of the tunnel. Anyway, when I left work at 5:30 pm there were 4 heavily armed swat cops and bomb sniffing dogs outside my building. This is the first time I have ever seen them here. There is a major subway station right downstairs. What I personally took away from both of these incidents is that the city is on a high transit alert. Everyone commuting or traveling tomorrow keep a heads up and stay safe.
I heard this on the news here on the west coast they reported here of them finding some type of device on the tracks or something to that effect.
Does anyone feel that tomorrow will be a very dangerous day for a possible Islamist coordinated strike? I think that airlanes were only a tip of the iceberg...Does anyone have any intelligence or insight into tomorrow as a possible attack date?
The 16th is a date I had and then we get to deal with Ramadan again
