Paris- Current Situation after attacks

I'm not sure what happened to the last thread but I'm guessing it got all political. I'm in Paris now and having a hard time finding what's open/ what isn't. We visited Notre Dame after the noon rememberence and headed towards St. Chapelle/ Concierge. As we were walking there, there was a bomb threat and everything was closed. Might have been anyway. If anyone has any updates in real time it would be appreciated. None of the museum websites seem to post real time info.

As just an observation of someone who has been here a few times this same week, it's eerily quiet. I'm guessing many cancelled plans to be here. If anyone can offer a place where closings are listed, it would be greatly appreciated. I totally understand how fluid things are right now though.

Yep - Eiffel tower employees walked out because they want better security.

Yeah, so did the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe, St. Chapelle, and the Concierge. We did the catacombs tour. Absolutely no line and no one inside. Headed to Reims tomorrow. My sister and her friend were next to the Louvre a couple of hours ago and there was an explosion and everyone was running. Nothing on the news so it was most likely something backfiring or blowing up something suspicious that always happens at these times. There's a campaign tonight to have everyone visit their local cafe in solidarity. We participated!
