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

GW closed also I hear.

Do your tires have treads on them?

[Rummyfan]

Wow.

[SamAdams76]

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!

[DoodleBob]

Or, there is this option...

We’re recommending passengers take trains back to NJ due to weather causing bus delays,” said a PA spokesman.

I have a buddy stuck in Penn Station, says it's a real $hitshow there too but at least the bars are open.

[Publius]

Penn Station is a mess even on the best of days.

You know conditions are bad when they close the GWB

FDR complete gridlock, heading north. No wonder Uber charging MORE than double :-)

[bankwalker]

Multi car accident I think

[capydick]

Yep, I’m thru there once or twice a week, I can’t imagine doing it every day, although I do get a good shoe shine while passing thru!

6.5 hour commute tonight but at least I’m not sleeping at Port Authority. That’s a dreadful experience even when things are operating on time.

[usafa92]

Snow removal of all things.

[Oratam]

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

“Four hours in this chop and I’m a full inch taller!”

[a fool in paradise]

those people are seeking refuge and the security guards are halting their movement!

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
