Airspace closing early

According to the TV news, for whatever that is worth, the airspace is
being closed by the Governor or the Mayor (I forget which). Somebody
there taking lessons from Chicago?

Of course, that's TV news reporting and usually has no bearing on
fact.

Sr Leadership trying to present a false sense of security to the unknowing
public.

There are already standing TFRs limiting flight over outdoor events.. this
added restriction will be mostly within surface Class B airspace, but does
cover two satellite airports in the Valley.
