My thoughts are especially with our members in NYC itself. I hope you're all safe, if a bit too preoccupied to participate in NYSING right now. Believe me, I understand that your priorities are very different when you're
in the middle of the situation!
I have been unable to connect with any of the live audio servers (not surprisingly).
Excellent job on the alerts and the Chat messages, everyone. This is why NYSING was created!

I will probably be in the Albany Chapter House assisting with recruitment and Family Welfare Inquiry messages. Tony-221 is our Communications Chair and will probably be called soon as well.

I ended up spending every day at the Chapter, except when I had to be at work. I started off operating the radio equipment and establishing links to government and other Red Cross offices. By the end of the week, I had been assigned to coordinate all internal and external communications related to the WTC operation for the North East New York Chapter. Tony-221 was assigned to the SEMO bunker by his employer (NYS OGS).

Ultimately, there were four aircraft hijacked and crashed and no additional bombings.

First, I just want to say that my thoughts and prayers are out for everyone in NYC and for family members. This is just an unbelievable thing to believe, and I am so sorry that it had to happen to anyone.
I'm not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but it has been confirmed so far that 3 planes total have gone down. Delta Flight 93 (a 757) did go down in Pittsburgh. It was in bound for San Francisco. Wrong airline identified by the news media - it was a United flight.
Here in the Syracuse area, the Hancock Airport Air National Guard Security frequency of 149.175 is very, very active this afternoon. CNY 911 centers are on lockdown, and are asking for emergency calls only. I'm sure there are several things like this U.S. wide. CNY schools have cancelled a lot of after school activities for many districts. I haven't heard of any schools being dismissed around here, but it is probably very possible elsewhere, especially downstate.
All airport frequencies (not AM band) here are very active, including some federal frequencies.
But the important thing to everyone is that this is national. Everywhere you can probably hear frequencies related to security issues due to the incidents.
Len-299
Federal and county building closed. Numerous calls to check on U-Haul vans located near schools (college just started and kids moving in). All incoming traffic to US is blocked.
This turned out to be false - see below. Roads near Niagara Falls power plant and the Falls have been closed and evacuated. All schools have cancelled after school programs, students remain in schools, certain schools are letting parents pick up kids. Too many to mention EMS calls mainly for heart attacks, causing fire comapnies to be all on standby. Rural/Metro is sending units east. State Police are transferring to Albany.We all see what is going on in the city. But what is your area doing?
Man this is bad. At least we have this to talk and vent on. Hopefully the Internet will stay somewhat intact. Well, this is good for Pres. Bush's defense plan.
Traffic from Canada to US it NOT blocked, flow is in both ways.
Anyone think the plane that crashed in PA was hijacked but the pilot downed it to avoid more damage?
#13
Lots of security measures are taking place here in Ottawa. RCMP Activity will be busy today here. Parliament buildings have been apparently evacuated here.
Airport security will definitely be up here. Apparently some aircraft going to the States will be directed to Canadian airports.

" the scenario was in a Tom Clancy (spy type story) several years ago"
Interesting........NYSING 96
The novel was called "The Sum of All Fears" and involved a Japan Air Lines 747 being crashed into the Capitol buliding during a joint session of Congress in order to destroy the government and ignite a shooting war between the U.S. and Japan. In the sequel "Executive Orders" Clancy's recurring hero Jack Ryan becomes President.
NYC victims are being transported as far away as Canada.
Greyhound had been cancelled. Amtrak has been cancelled in the NE.
Schools have not been cancelled only colleges and all after school activities.
The FAA reports that all plans are grounded until noon tomorrow - about 36,000 flights.
All flights have now landed.

On some othe notes.
Gas prices are going WAY up! So hurry up and fill up.
Didn't happen.Donate your blood!
Thoes building in NYC are all old and asbestos is going to be a big problem down the road for those lucky enough to make it out.

NYS mutual aid plan has been activated! All Erie County fire companies are to stand-by in case of deployment. 46.28 No units are to be deployed at this time or contact the office.
I had heard on the news that a bomb went off in front of the Embassy Suites hotel in Manhattan, but haven't heard any more of that since.
Believed to be a false report.3 FEMA trailers of heavy rescue equipment were brought to the command post. NYFD marine boats were going to be providing water pumping due to a loss of water pressure in lower Manhattan.
Hmm, I just missed part of it, but the decontamination unit was just giving orders about decontamination of turnout gear. Last I heard they were still testing the dust clouds for hazmats.
Asbestos levels along the riverfront in NY and NJ were reported to be as high as 400% of normal for several hours following the collapses.Many pictures of destroyed (most crushed) NYFD and NYPD vehicles on the local news.
Here in Rockland (35-ish miles NW of Manhattan), local PD is having traffic problems with people parking on the higher elevation roads along the Hudson and Hi Tor Mountain because you (used) to be able to see the WTCs from those places. Some of my local PDs and FDs are sending people to Westchester, I presume to stage. They don't seem to have much "direction" in where they are going though.
I've also noticed a slowdown in some internet traffic, probably due to new routes evolving to avoid Manhattan. I believe most of lower Manhattan is without power.
NYC OEM's EOC is in 7 WTC (23rd floor)...that building is on fire and they are unable to put it out. Mayor and Govenor are at an undisclosed location in Manhattan. 4 WTC also collapsed, or was on the verge of it.
There were reports that 1 Liberty Place was about to collapse or in the process of collapsing on Wednesday, but those reports also turned out to be false.Matt-263

As it turned out, no rescue or firefighting was possible because just
about all of the FDNY and EMS personnel on scene were killed when the towers collapsed.
Later reports indicated that FDNY had lost about 10 alarms worth of apparatus and
manpower.
Based on what I hear on NYFD's VHF channels, I think a lot of traffic has moved to the
800mhz trunked systems in the city (DOITT probably, and maybe NYFD/EMS admin system).
Unfortunately I can not receive them up here. If you are in the NYC immediate
area, try www.n2nov.net for those system details if you
need it.
1500 "walking" wounded were sent across the river to Jersey for treatment.
600 more with more serious injuries being treated in the city. I think I heard 150
critical injuries. I can only imagine those numbers will skyrocket
with time. One thing on the "optimistic" side is that there have been a
lot of people interviewed on TV today who were in or around the WTC plaza when this first
started happening. We can only hope that many of the people in
there did the same and got out of the area.
WCBS reporting 100 injured at the Pentagon with firehouse.com reporting 10 alarm there.
Firehouse also reporting that a cell caller called 911 from the bathroom of the
plane that crashed in PA reporting the plane was being
hijacked.
It's very errie to not hear any planes flying overhead today.
TV reporting that some inbound bridges and tunnels are open to emergency workers
(firefighters, police officers, EMT/Paramedics etc) only who wish to come into the city to
help.
NYFD reporting additional collapse just now...FieldComm has not determined which one yet.
INFO: WCBS just showed 7 WTC collapsed live on TV. Came right down on itself.
Anyone know if there are legal issues involved in posting recordings of FD radio traffic?
(Recorded, not live streams). Up until this
incident, people had been posting live and delayed radio traffic on the Web with no
problems or objections (except for the goof in NYC who posted MDT traffic a few months
ago). Now that the U.S. is on a wartime footing and security is a front-page issue,
this situation might change. There has been no official reaction to the openness of
public safety communications yet. We'll have to see what, if anything, Mr. Ridge has
to say on the subject.

I think it is safe to say that most fire & EMS trainings for tonight will have been cancelled. Oneida County has already done this. Cattaraugus County has asked FDs to man their stations.

I'm also hearing some Canadian communities across Lake Ontario gathering personnel together for possible deployment to NYC as well. Many thanks to our neighbors to the North in Canada for their support during this horrible tragedy. May God be with us all and all our families on this horrible day.

Rensselaer County is creating a resource list as a precaution.
Potential scenarios include EMS personnel to assist in moving injured to the Capital District by train. Didn't happen.
Others include various types of manpower support for a 48 hour rotation in the City.
These are strictly hypotheticals at this point, but I know REMO (REMAC?) and the various agencys are standing by for any requests.
Anyone in the immediate CT border, Taconic Parkway, Thruway, or rail corridors are candidates because of transportation options.
I fear we will be at war, official or not, when I wake up in the morning.

My prayers to the families and to the victims of the horrible tragedy.
Thank you to all of you who sent alerts. You were very
helpful is assisting me at my job in keeping informed as to what was going on. God

Bush is speaking at 8:30 not 9 anymore. I'm sure he will have a bunch to say.
The flight that crashed in PA requested a flight change to DC. No survivors, and remains are almost impossible to find. Someone called 911 from the plane 2min before it went down.
Again if you can give blood please do type O
negative is desperately needed.lines for what is estimated to be one third of the entire state.
Federal, State and County buildings all over the nation were evacuated or
released early today. Hospitals statewide including Oneida County's own St. Lukes,
Faxton and St. E's are on full alert. This may very well be the begining of World
War 3. Those of us who were watching closely today know that we have witnessed
history. One man who was on (I think) the 30th floor told NBC and ABC news reporters
that the croud moving down the stairs was too large to explain. He went on to say
how sorry he felt for the persons trapped in wheel chairs up on higher floors.
People were seen jumping out of windows as far up as the 50th floor. I would
like to write a simple prayer and ask that those who believe say it and I apologize to
those who don't.

Dear God,
We never know why we allow these violent acts to occur, but we know that you will have the
people involved with you. We ask that you be with the families of those who lost
their loved ones in any one of these terrible acts of violence. We ask you, o' Lord,
that you would guide us to find the truth about the people who did this and we ask that we
allow you to judge them. We remember that famous verse, "Revenge is mine sayeth
the Lord". May you bless this country and all it stands for. In Jesus
Christ we pray, AMEN.

ONEIDA COUNTY:
I don't have much information on the county building, but this is what I have:
Ralph Eannace left the building early this morning as soon as he found out about the
crashes. He then sent a call to ALL departments in both the Utica and Rome offices
to evacuate NOW. Apparently all personnel were told to leave without making any
phone calls or any stops of any kind. So the buildings were evacuated at 2PM this
afternoon.
-
There are some unconfirmed reports that many area schools including the Madison-Oneida
BOCES center will remain closed for one day as a precautionary measure. Although I
do not think that it is necessary, they may, so be prepared. Again, this is an
unconfirmed rumor that states that BOCES is "discussing" the possibility of not
opening.
That's all.
-Andy Harmon
Companies are starting to relieve some firefighters altho thay don't seem to want ot leave. Will start 12hrs shifts.

BOMB: TRUCK FULL OF EXPLOSIVES STOP AND CONFISCATED IN TRANSIT OVER GEORGE WASHINGTON BRIDGE. REPORTED BY CH2 NEWS
(428)
This was partially true - no explosives were found.
The ME was injured today, but is doing fine. He is ramping his staff to handle, if needed, thousands of bodies.
He refuses to discuss the numbers game, but did confirm that both the Fire Chief, as well as 1st Deputy Chief of FDNY were killed.
The Police Commisioner reported that he and the Mayor, as well as other high-ranking officials, such as the Chief, were meeting near the buildings. They left for approx minutes, and in that time, the building fell and a number of staff were killed.
The Mayor and his staff were visibly shaken.
