Well, then how do we explain these factoids:
1. The NWA/Delta flight taxied to the gate at 3am, after parking remotely at first
2. That both NWA/Delta and CO/XJ were in fact hoping to depart for MSP if the weather cleared, and that at 2am a weather window seemed to have opened, only to close quickly.
Both these factoids seem to suggest someone must have been at ATC at 2am and 3am?
