(31,450 posts)already tomorrow.
Warpy
(111,530 posts)They never used to close for a measly 8 inches of snow and they were always on the lower end of the snow amounts because the airport is hanging out right on the ocean, meaning it's warmer than the rest of the city.
It looks like airlines are canceling now because delays mean they have to start paying overtime.
