First predictions came out of NWS today. Still high uncertainty, but BOS might get another 4-8".

Interesting. Nothing untoward showing up on the PHL-area 5-day forecast.

That said, the largest accumulation I recall seeing in the Delaware Valley over the last 30 years was a mid-March storm.

BOS is packed today. Great if your looking for a bump.

BOS-MSP was asking for $600. BOS-DTW $600 as well too.

Don't expect anything to be getting in or out of BOS tomorrow. Likely that they'll be canceling the last inbound to BOS flights this evening/night as well, so no equip gets stuck/buried at the gates.

Here's a clause I hadn't noticed before: "Eligibility only for customers with an Original Ticket Issue Date on or before March 5, 2018."

The major first news I saw of the storm was on Sunday the 11th, so if I bought my ticket on March 6 I'd be SOL?

Hmm, I'm pretty sure that's a vestige from the previous weather waiver.

On the following site, it says the "correct" clause of "Applies for tickets issued on or before March 11, 2018"

Ah, OK, I'd certainly buy copy and paste error as the reason...

Looking at BOS flight status... there are multiple DL 9xxx special section flights departing BOS tonight to MSP and DTW. Repositioning aircraft I assume from last flights in to get the equip out of the storm path.
Also a pile of Jetblue repositioning flights departing tonight.

I hope MSP and DTW have enough hotel rooms for tonight.

I was booked to Boston and back on wednesday and canceled it. Rescheduled for two weeks later. Not worth the hassle.
