no it must be due to the weather , although its bright and sunny @ EWR its pretty bad down at the South Pole, cant believe CO will CX a flight and not blame it on the weather

It's the end of a rough wx month .. If these guys stick to contract, it's not a job action but for the passengers, it sill be painful
