Nothing like freezing rain to throw a wrench in the gears. I'm
familiar with the normal chaos of O'Hare -- I simply can't imagine
what it's like with 400 cancelled flights. You couldn't pay me enough
to wade into that mess tonight.

I bet that's only about 10% of the flights out of there on a Holiday
Sunday...

And I also bet they cancel over 100 flights every time the wind blows there.
O'Hare is about the worst airport in the country as far as on-time and
cancellation performance...

Oh, the end of the story said that MDW was fine... Imagine that - must have
been a very localized weather problem.

This is a reversal from past winters when MDW would get messed up and
ORD was better..funny what a wrongful death lawsuit will do to ground
ops...JG
