Is ATL really bad right now? (10.54 a.m. on 12-28)

I've got a group on DL508 headed up to LGA today and if Delta.com is right (?) then they have been sitting on the runway "Awaiting Takeoff" for the last hour and 26 minutes. Anyone there right now able to confirm via a glance out the windows if the take off queue is really that long?

Thanks!

ATL's site (www.atlanta-airport.com) says the flight departed at 10.05 a.m. but that is likely when it left the gate. Delta.com still says Awaiting Takeoff. With a transfer from LGA to JFK and a flight to SVO today I'm hoping this is just another situation where Delta Technology is slow to update.

Third Edit: I guess delta.com was just slow to update. They now show that 757 over my house near Athens, GA. Sorry for the bother.
