I believe low visibility was causing delays at EWR this morning.

My understanding is that summer fuel stops are typically due to bad (or predicted bad) weather or thunderstorms at EWR that will likely cause substantial holding time or arrival delays. Better to gas up on a planned basis at BGR than to have to leave the queue over NJ.

I was on UA 78 and we landed in CLE just after UA 804. We had to wait until after they got refueled. Then it was our turn and after two hours we headed off to EWR. I think we got into EWR after 8pm. Unfortunately, my next flight to GRU was delayed and didn't leave until after 2 am
