Good luck to all those attending the event today at AHS. The word from the Obama campaign as reported in the C-T is that attendance of 10,000 is expected (WLOS said 15,000) , and 10 a.m. is the time to arrive.

If you're not attending, WLOS is saying it will have a live webcast of Obama's speech streaming from WLOS.com starting at 2 p.m.

UPDATE 2:22 p.m.: WLOS live stream is here.
