Snow tomorrow and a Polar vortex incoming this week. I wonder if the Hudson and Harbor will see significant iceage. It’s looking like a real possibility with temps in the low tens to single digits each night. Both banks of the Hudson are already icy.

What would be funny is if Islip airport becomes the only airport with a one-seat train ride to Manhattan (since each of JFK and Newark requires an AirTrain, and LGA, BOS and BWI require a bus connection).

Not only do JFK and EWR require an air train, its around 8 dollars to use it. It would’t be that big of a deal if it was either free or much cheaper to use.

At least the LGA bus is free.
