I'm waiting on this one, the Southwest flight from San Diego, and the Spirit flight from Ft Lauderdale to divert. They must've been loaded with extra fuel


I’ve been watching those as well. I wonder what the SWA flight from TPA will do. I’m surprised they took off.

It's looking like the worst is about to pass over MSY now so there may be a chance of getting some planes in within the next 20-30 minutes. Tampa is going north now then will go west to avoid the line. Newark is probably headed out where San Diego has been circling. I would absolutely hate to be on the CRJ700 from Philly in this shite AA 5017

The spirit flight has finally diverted! To Pensacola NK 1526

United from Newark is diverting to Memphis United 1267

We have our first departure in roughly 45 minutes, DL 2094 to JFK DL 2094

You can also see flights heading for western U.S. destinations from south Florida are turning northward toward Alabama to go around the storms.

That's a culmination of the damage we've seen done by this part of the line. They would have been justified in putting that tag on it for both the Lake Chuck and BR areas.

ETA: Laffy, too.

Decided to go fishing this evening in plaquemine. Checked the radar and saw the rain was going to hit around 7. Picked up and headed for the launch at 6:30. Got the boat picked up and was leaving jack millers at around 7.
About 99% sure a tornado crossed the road just in front of my truck. Ended up coming to a downed tree and had to sit there until a guy with a chain came and cleared a path. The sky turned green, I couldn’t turn around because I had the boat, just sitting there waiting to either get broadsided by a tornado or rear ended by a vehicle that couldn’t see through the rain was a terrible feeling. Luckily neither happened

This system is wreaking havoc on air travel, glad I'm not flying today. The only two options seem to be go north then west or below the line in the gulf then north. Houston IAH and HOU seem to be having their normal routes in/out very disrupted today. I've seen those northerly routes from dallas to arkansas to nola before during bad weather, an hour flight turns into 2+.

Off to sleep. Hope everyone stays safe and gets power back quickly

Looks like the Tampa to New Orleans Southwest flight is going to loop around and come in behind the storms.
