Seems nothing can get out west from EWR/NYC with the storms. DL sent a JFK-LAX flight south over the Atlantic to South Carolina before turning west.
Looking at flight status on some of the delayed EWR-LAX/SFO flights, it appears UA may be prepping to send them to IAH (possibly via a similar routing over the Atlantic to the southeast?). Unclear if the planes will then continue to LAX/SFO or if this is just a way to shuttle people to a non-impacted hub.
