Reply to comment by lucidrevolution in What is going on? Can hear the sirens and helicopters but cannot see anything from where I live… anybody in a tower with better view? by Papotte
Actually, I live in Newport, about 2 blocks from the tunnel, and I don’t hear the helicopters hovering that often. I hear them going up and down the river or flying people out to EWR, but not in the “traffic report” stationary sense. Could just be me.

I think it's because I was literally right where the major roadway goes down to the Tunnel and I often saw the helicopter news people during the traffic reports... Newport I can see having more issues with the helipad stuff... but I haven't lived downtown in a very long time.

A lot of them are tourist/sightseeing helicopters or private use and definitely not news/police- I used to live in Port Imperial and we heard them often pre Covid, less so during the height of it all, and definitely became more frequent again before we moved out in late 2021
