I just saw on the local TV news a breaking story. Apparently some kind of threat at ISP against WN this morning and the WN terminal is being evacuated. Lots of police activity in the area as you can imagine. No further details at this time as to what the nature of the threat is, but the TV report stated that Southwest Airlines was specifically mentioned.

UPDATE: Just heard on WCBS-AM that the threat was against WN flight 2622 (ISP-MDW). The threat was phoned in from Dallas. The plane was searched (it hadn't left yet) and nothing was found. ISP should be returning to normal shortly.
