I'm in Natick. For the last hour or 2, I'm hearing a loud siren type noise and a few planes/helicopters flying overhead (very loud, not like commercial flights)... Anyone know what's going on?

Twitter says it's related to surveying the marathon course.

I see.... makes sense! Thanks.

I also noticed that Rt 135 has been cleaned of all the sand/dirt residue from the snow mounds in Natick. So getting ready for the big day for sure.

The street sweepers have been out in full force this month, but that's just a normal sign of spring.

Sounds like a twinge of paranoia.

Really, not to me. Just sounds like the OP was curious.

Seems like an excessive amount of noise for "surveying" the course.

I'm still waiting for them to hit our side streets. They did it around this time last yr. but they are not here yet. Still lots of sand and cracked asphalt pieces in the neighborhood.
