Was in LAX skyclub waiting for a flight to YYC - guy comes into the lounge at 4:30p, turns out he was on a flight to SFO from LAX, had been there since 9a, and they couldn't land due to microbursts and windshear. Don't envy anyone trying to get into SFO.

Takeoff (around 6:30p) from LAX was one of the most turbulent I have ever felt (737-8). I don't mind it but I felt bad for the poor souls who are not as travelled as I. Plane was rattling and shaking probably until we reached 20k+ altitude. Wild weather to be sure on the coast yesterday.
