Anyone else see the caravan of black SUV type vehicles traveling on the East Eand tonight - 10/21 about 5:15? Moving slow by grassy point with flashers on? Just curious! Looked like a Presidential motorcade!

Any black helicopters traveling as an escort?

Didn't see that, but we were at the Divi around 4:30 and there was a white stretch hummer along with several other cars and what appeared to be drivers standing around in the lobby. It seemed like something was 'about' to happen. I wish we'd hung around now, maybe we'd seen somebody important.

Could be Beres Hammond on island for the reggae show.

Out by Grassy Point? Maybe it was Mosler coming through with his presidential motorcade!

Nah, dude, that'd be a bike. That's the one thing I admire about the guy.

I haven't seen this particular one but I did see one about a year ago. I think it was an advanced scout team from the Secret Service. They must have decided to recommend St. Thomas as I seem to recall either Obama or Biden went there just weeks later.

The easiest way to tell on STX is to take a peek at the tarmac on the airport. If you see multiple large U.S. Air Force transports (typically C-17s and or C-5s as I recall) after seeing the black car parade then a detail is here (whether or not the dignitary is here is another question.)
