On UAX7984 (MHT-IAD) right now.

Just landed in SYR to refuel. Word is that ATC has closed arrivals into Dulles.

From the looks outside there's a US Airways 762 and 333 on the ground here as well. Perhaps PHL and/or CLT is closed also?

Pushed from gate in MHT on time, then sat on the ramp waiting for ATC. Finally got going and noticed we were heading pretty far west. Next thing we start doing circles over SYR. Ran low on fuel and now in SYR to refuel.

No new flight plans filed on flightaware.com, but EasyUpdate indicates a 5:58pm arrival into IAD.

Le sigh.

fly.faa.gov doesn't show any arrival delays at IAD. WAS-NYC is mostly red with some orange. Definitely doesn't look good.

Edited to add: There have been lots of flights that have been landing (at least as of 4:40pm) according to flightarrivals.com

Edited again: Flight diversions all over it seems. LH 418 from FRA diverted to EWR as one example.
