Is this for real or did SkyVector freak out on me?

Looks like the entire Mid-Atlantic coast and well out to sea...

It looks real, but not a "normal" tfr

I don't see a TFR anywhere else. FF doesn't show it either. Did they mistakenly label it as a TFR? Shouldn't it be a NOTAM instead?

Wait, who still uses SV? I thought it went under shortly after they broke the UI.
 
It was on ff for a short while, although it was in yellow since the activation time hadn't happened yet. Doesn't show now.

I use it for quick and dirty snapshots and looking at airways.
 
.... well I wish I would have seen this thread before I posted a further hijack elsewhere.

No, it's still alive. I use it for a quick look at routes and current conditions from my desktop, i.e. without having to open my iPad. In fact, I use it for quick weather updates from my computer at work all the time.
 
That's why I'm sticking with FF.
