06/09 — That huge band of thunderstorms moving through North Jersey has done what we feared it might do. This morning's full-squad minicamp practice at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center that was set to be opened to the public has been moved inside to the fieldhouse and is now closed to the public.
No decision has yet been reached on this afternoon's practice. We will let you know as soon as possible whether the practice will be held outdoors or indoors. You can check here on newyorkjets.com, call the Jets Fan Line at 973-549-4844, or check the Jets Twitter page at twitter.com/nyjets. We will also tweet highlights from all practices on Twitter, whether the practices are inside or outside.

Randy Lange Said:
"George, I'll check on that for you."
Randy Lange Said:
"Well, Larry, Leon Washington is here and practicing in the mandatory minicamp. Eric Allen will have a story on Leon later this afternoon."

Fred Said:
Tue, June 9, 2009 - 11:34am ET"I'm one of the folks that did not let the weather influence my decision to drive 95 miles this morning only to get word @ 8:30 that there would be no practice . Had I listened & went to work ,those band of T- storms would not have made it across the river from Pa. Can you tell me Randy will there be a practice in Florham Park in August ?"
Randy Lange Said:
"Yes, Fred, there will be three days of practices at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center in August after the team breaks camp at Cortland. More details to come."
Frank Esposito Said:
Tue, June 9, 2009 - 11:40am ET"I still think having only one week for the local fans to watch the jets practice is unfair .all that money spent for that facility and no consideration for parking and seating for the fans,been a fan since 1972 and a season ticket holder up until the last 5 years."
Michael Said:
Tue, June 9, 2009 - 1:27pm ET"Is the afternoon practice still open to the public at 3:55 today? "
Randy Lange Said:
"Michael, the afternoon practice is fully open for fans. Everyone should still follow the weather reports, though."
Matt Said:
Tue, June 9, 2009 - 1:39pm ET"Die-hard fan here. I took the drive from Long Island to Florham Park only to find out that the morning practice was cancelled via ESPN radio when I was around the corner. Are the Jets going to be practicing at Hofstra again at all (even if its only a practice or two) for those fans that grew up with the Jets practicing in their backyard?"
Randy Lange Said:
"Matt, the Jets will have one practice at Hofstra in early August. More details when we get closer to the start of training camp."
Samm Said:
Wed, June 10, 2009 - 7:46pm ET"Are the Jets going to be at Hofstra all of August? Or will they be at the new training facility for August? "
Randy Lange Said:
"Samm, the Jets will be at Hofstra for only one day in August. We'll pass on details of their training camp schedule when we get closer to the start of camp."
