Anyone else take Metro North to work like myself? This week is going to be hell, can't even imagine what I-95 and the Merritt are going to look like with people deciding to venture out on the road instead.

I moved from Fairfield Cty years ago because the traffic was causing me to lose my mind. I can't even imagine this week.

I was a couple trains ahead of the accident on Friday coming home from NYC. Got lucky to get out.

I can't believe the MTA is using the term "express bus" when describing their bus service this week. Ha!

Early in the morning its best to drive to Norwalk, but still can't avoid I-95 north coming home. Even the Post Road will be brutal.

I was one train behind, got stuck in Westport and had to pay out the ass for a cab ride home.

I can't even imagine the lines just to get on one of those things. My sis told me the horror stories of what the shuttle bus service was like for Brooklyn to Manhattan during Hurricane Sandy, I expect something similar for this, I'm going to pass on that option.

I'm down lower fairfield county and plan on driving to Stamford and taking the train from there VERY early. I can't imagine how packed the Stamford station is going to be with everyone taking buses from Bridgeport to Stamford.

I rode the 7:39 express train this morning from Stamford. The train was full but not overly packed like I expected it to be. I think a lot of people just decided to work from home. Let's see how the afternoon commute goes.
