It took me 3 hours to do a 45 minute train commute from Brooklyn today. Didn’t see much wind or tornado. Lots of Thunder and Lightning. Trains were a mess. On the F line they said take the M or R. On the R they use the F.

Curious....... what does a subway token cost these days?... It’s been 40 yrs or so since I was in the area and back then it was maybe 15 cents, don’t remember for sure.

You had a long commute today, but on the positive side you joined FR today, so it balances out:) Welcome!

We have this type of weather numerous times a year in spring and early summer and it doesn’t cause everthing to come to a screeching halt. I guess there are advantages to living out in the sticks. ;-)

I experienced the NYC train line to Hoboken being shutdown due to power outages in Nov. 2005. That wasn’t fun either, being crammed together with everyone else for an hour or so. Made me REAL appreciative of my wide-open spaces. Hope all goes safe for you guys today. Hang in there.
