President Obama is going to be visiting New York City for three hours today, which means there will be heightened security at Ground Zero. This also means yet another day of difficulty for anyone using the PATH by the World Trade Center site. For instance, the PATH's Twitter followers got this message, "Later today midday serv to/from #WTC will be suspended for approx 1 hr due to #Obama visit. Exact time unknown. Updates provided when avail."

However, NJ.com gives a clue in the timetable, "PATH service into the World Trade Center station will be suspended for about an hour around noon today."
