Yup. DFW ops have fallen to pieces for another evening. Substantial bad weather up in Oklahoma right now, and storms predicted at DFW after 8 pm. All DFW-AUS flights for the evening are already cancelled, except for the last one of the evening at 10:55 pm, but I assume it's only a matter of time before than one is cancelled too. Seems strange that the 7:08 pm is cancelled, as the weather should be clear at that time, and you'd think they'd want the plane in AUS for Monday morning. Maybe no crew available. Most morning AUS-DFW flights already cancelled too.
