What a busy weekend for me. Anyway, it’s nice to be back. Weather is not good in Jersey City, as it is raining hard outside. CBS News said rain falls hard in the morning, followed by showers, then strong winds. So expect a messy, messy commute and difficult ride when you travel.

And PATH is delayed this morning. Related to weather?

  • Due to a car equipment problem, train service on the Journal Square to 33rd Street line is operating with a 20 minute delay.
  • Due to a car equipment problem, train service on the Hoboken to World Trade Center line is operating with a 20 minute delay.
