Kind of slow news day. So lets spice it up a bit!
From KRDO-TV 13 in Colorado Springs
--------------------------------
An Air Force installation in Colorado Springs and one near Denver are operating with heightened security.
The Cheyenne Mountain Air Station, which houses NORAD, is now at "Bravo-Plus".
There are five levels of alert: normal, Alpha (low), Bravo (medium), Charlie (high) and Delta (critical). “Bravo-Plus” is slightly higher than a medium threat level.
Space Command would not comment on the reason for the security increase.
The order also affects Vandenberg Air Force Base in California and Patrick air force base in Florida.
---------------------------------------------------
Interesting. There's a multitude of things currently going on that could cause NORAD to go on heightened alert status. North Korea might finally be thinking about launching that missle they have on the pad. Also, there's the meteor that is passing very close to earth in the next few hours. Called XP2004. Rumor on the internet has it a Scientist from Nasa made a miscalculation and was gagged after trying to warn the media.
The last time this happened was right before Y2k.
