Instrumentation failures requiring better ceiling which is hard to find.

Maybe diverting to BDL or PIT.

currently on 135.9 with JFK.

edit: that conversation should be on

Diverting to Newark right now, the conversation that lead to that decision was hair raising.
LNAV/VNAV approach is planned, let's hope they get down safely.
few clouds at 200
overcast 400

fuel remaining 7200 kg which is about an hour, probably less with approaches.

Just landed safely at EWR.
