yesterday was absolutely weather. we had strong thunderstorm sitting over the central valley (where the airport is) for several hours. the weather here has been a disaster for a week or so. but it's actually raining and we need the water so cool it, thanks.

I received an EMERGENCY alert on 7/31 valid from 2 pm to 5 pm for severe weather, that time frame shouldn't have affected my 10:10 pm (or revised 12:10 am) flight. I doubt the 6:30 AM dl email revising my dep time by 2 hrs was related to a weather warning which would not be issued until 8 hrs later.
PS: The delayed 311 (which departed at 8:43 am on 8/1) had a Boston based flt crew, not the usual NY crew.

I was booked on 311 LAS-JFK red eye departing (today) 9/26 at 10:35 pm, in rapid succession I received messages from DL that my flight is (1) delayed by 1 hour, (2) departing on time, (3) delayed by 4+ hours, (3) seems to now be the real NEW dep time. As usual DL notes I can make changes online, which never seems to work [when I try I get a list of lots of reasons why that won’t work for me—but NONE of those apply to me.] Most of the 9/27 flights ane sold out in C+…assuming my flight really departs at 3:00 AM, that seems like my best option.
[The inbound 311 from JFK is delayed by 6+ hours]
