No doubt that there is bad weather blocking flight routes. But US managed to get two flights out on time ORD-PHL. UA had a 5 hour delay, a 90 minute delay, and other flights still on the board. AA canceled the entire afternoon. Same to DCA, LGA, and I'm sure others. Literally every flight canceled on AA and almost everything on UA/US/DL is operating to the NE corridor (albeit with delays).
