In a thunderous symphony of turbulent weather, a mighty storm system has made its mighty presence known across the East Coast. Bearing down upon the Northeast with gusto, it has unveiled a dizzying dance of heavy rain, brutish winds, and capricious flash flooding. Not one to discriminate, the storm threatens to upend the meticulously planned holiday travel itineraries of countless Americans, cutting a shadowy figure across weather radars.
Early whispers from the storm's feisty concertos were clearly audible from LaGuardia Airport. A weather recital commenced, led by wind gusts conducting at a speed of about 54 miles per hour. Consequently, some 160 flights had to bow out of their scheduled performances, an estimated 15 percent of the flights operating from Terminal A. This terminal typically welcomes travelers flying with Spirit Airlines and Frontier.
