Passengers have been left stranded after "chaos" at US airports has led to hundreds of flights being cancelled amid storms across the country.
Newark Liberty International Airport had around 900 combined cancellations and delays, LaGuardia Airport had about 800, and John F. Kennedy International Airport had nearly 750, according to FlightAware.
Passengers are facing disruption going to or coming from Boston Logan International Airport, New York City, New Jersey, Seattle and Los Angeles.
Lightning, large hail and wind gusts up to 70 mph are disrupting travel with more than 1,400 flights cancelled in New York City, Boston and Atlanta.
There are 63 delays at Logan Airport on Tuesday, and 60 cancellations at Boston's International Airport, according to FlightAware.
And on Monday night, more than thirty per cent of the flights out of Newark were scrapped, and nearly forty per cent were delayed due to the stormy weather.

The National Weather Service issued tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings across most of New Jersey yesterday afternoon.
Officials admitted the delays and cancellations were particularly bad at LaGuardia and warned the disruption could last for the next few days.
Doris Esobar, who was stranded in Boston on Tuesday morning, said she only found out her flight had been cancelled after reading about it.
She told Boston 10: "They didn't say anything, we found out through other passengers that the problem was the weather.
"I also read something about a problem with people working on the platforms, so I have no idea what's going on."
The cancellations have left many passengers trapped including Peggy Paradice who was set for a 30-hour flight back home to Australia when it suddenly turned into a four-day journey.
She told CBS News: "It must be really bad because a lot of airlines just have no seats until Thursday. So here we are. We're camped out in the Newark Airport.
"So this is us putting our toe back in the shark-infested waters of air travel."
She revealed it was her first trip to the US since the pandemic.
"So this is us putting our toe back in the shark-infested waters of air travel," Peggy added.
Peggy admitted she will have to revaluate their plans over the coming days as airlines admitted the disruption could last until Tuesday.
Egan Budd, from Seattle, had spent nearly 24 hours inside Newark Airport as she awaited more information on her flight after nearby hotels had been sold out due to the disruption.
"I feel gross. I feel like I want to cry, but I have nothing left. I called all the hotels within three miles of the airport and they were like, no, we're full, no, we're full."
According to the Port Authority, the weather delays on Monday and the cancellations on Sunday created further disruption for passengers.
Meanwhile, damaging winds are due to hit Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and New York City, while flood watches have been issued from Virginia to New York.
Authorities recommend passengers check the status of their flight with their airline before heading to the airport on Tuesday so they can avoid lengthy waits.
The weather on Wednesday and Thursday will be unsettled but the threat of severe thunderstorms will remain low, according to the National Weather Service.
Moreover, more than 300,000 residents are without power across Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Georgia and Michigan after the severe storms.
There have been at least twenty reported tornados reported across the Midwest and three were confirmed in Indiana, killing at least one person and damaging dozens of homes, according to local authorities.
Meanwhile, two people were killed in Lonoke County, Arkansas, after a tree fell on a mobile home and another person was killed by a fallen tree in Fulton County, Georgia.
