Washington (CNN) -- The U.S. State Department is expected to issue a travel alert to Americans in Europe in light of recent terror threat information, U.S. officials said Saturday.

The alert could be issued as early as Sunday morning, according to one senior official.

The alert is expected to urge American citizens in Europe to be vigilant, especially when in public places such as public transportation, airports, and tourist sites, officials said.

It is not expected to warn Americans against travel to Europe, officials said.

One senior U.S. official said that in addition to the travel alert from the State Department, "U.S. military installations are taking prudent precautions. This is a serious situation."

A separate U.S. official said the alert is being prompted by the volume of intelligence on possible terror threats, rather than new intelligence.

It emerged last week that U.S. intelligence officials were looking at information about a possible "Mumbai-style" attack in cities across Europe.

A United Kingdom security source said Saturday that it's not believed the expected U.S. alert is a result of new intelligence received in the last few days.

But the source added that the intelligence related to the possible Mumbai-style attack was being looked at very seriously on both sides of the Atlantic.

The security source said there are no plans to raise the terror threat level in the United Kingdom from severe to critical.

A severe threat level means an attack is considered highly likely; critical means an attack is expected imminently.

A possible backlash from the French burqa ban is considered a factor in the expected warning, the security source said. The French Senate recently approved a law banning veils that cover the face, including the burqa, worn by some Muslim women.

Mumbai, the financial hub of India, was the site of a three-day terror attack two years ago that left more than 160 people dead.

Ten men launched the carefully planned assault, targeting prominent sites such as the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower hotel, the Oberoi-Trident hotels, the historic Victoria Terminus train station and a Jewish cultural center.

A U.S. law enforcement official told CNN Saturday that an advisory will likely be sent to law enforcement agencies around the United States after the travel alert is issued, "just to keep them in the loop."

But the official added that current intelligence is about Europe rather than a threat in the United States.

So I'm studying abroad in Europe right now, Rome, Italy to be exact. Not feeling to comfortable about this because I plan on doing a lot of traveling while I'm here.  I already have trips to France and England planned so now I'm a little hesitant.  Honestly I'm so tried of this preoccupation with terror alerts and muslim extremists that I'm coming to point in my life (never thought like this) who cares if were in Iraq for money, who cares if were Afghanistan. I'm honeslty starting to have no sympathy for Muslim extremists, they will never be able to win the war against US and Europe, they don't have the resources or help to do so, so why the hell are they even fighting? Just stay home and take care of your own and don't worry about us (vice-versa). This people are jokes

There may be some truth to those warnings but pretty much they are just guessing based on a hunch... they don't know if anything is going to happen

Enjoy your time in Europe and stop whining they issue alerts for countries all over the world...
