United and American suspended operations in the region by afternoon, as white-out conditions developed. Other airlines have cancelled flights too. All are encouraging passengers to reschedule are allowing them to do it for free.
Airlines are quick to cancel flights ahead of major storms to avoid stranding aircraft and crews. Doing so also lessens storm-related financial losses. As of 4 p.m. Eastern, about 1,300 U.S. flights had been canceled cheap hotels daytona beach on Wednesday, according to flight tracker FlightAware. About 40 percent of those are at Newark Liberty International Airport which was also the hardest hit with Superstorm Sandy last Monday. Most of those cancellations cheap hotels daytona beach were made well before the first snowflake fell.
Sandy caused more than 20,000 flight cancellations, making it the second-most disruptive storm in the last seven years. The latest storm is weaker than Sandy but still carries high winds, a mix of rain and snow and the potential for more flooding. Sandy flooded some airport runways.
Wednesday's storm, with blowing snow and fog, at times limited visibility. Making matters worse, Sandy damaged some navigational aids at New York's cheap hotels daytona beach airports. In a statement, the Federal Aviation Administration said technicians are working around the clock to restore the navigational aids and other damaged cheap hotels daytona beach equipment at all three airports in the New York area. The FAA also said it worked with airlines ahead of the Wednesday storm to identify arrival and departure patterns to allow pilots to use runways with working navigation equipment cheap hotels daytona beach in low visibility conditions.
Most other airlines, including Delta Air Lines Inc. and JetBlue Airways Corp., are asking passengers cheap hotels daytona beach to reschedule Northeast flights to a later date. They're waiving the usual change fees of up to $150. But customers don't have a lot of time: Most waivers only allow passengers to reschedule within a week. That's in part because the busy Thanksgiving travel season is approaching, and airlines are eager to clear the traveler backlog.
Most passengers eventually reschedule, so the airline still collects the fare. And if flights cheap hotels daytona beach are canceled, the airline doesn't have to pay the crew or the cost of burning fuel. Pilots and flight attendants only get paid once the main cabin doors close.
Surges from the current storm along the coasts of New Jersey and New York are expected to reach perhaps 3 feet, only a fraction of what Sandy caused. High winds, which may gust to 65 mph, could extend cheap hotels daytona beach inland throughout the day, potentially hampering power restoration efforts or causing more outages.
One of the last flights to leave after many were cancelled due to a storm is fueled up at LaGuardia Airport on November 7, 2012 in New York City. The Northeast suffered another storm today as a mix of snow, rain and high winds moved through the area, canceling flights and creating hazardous driving conditions.

Bloomberg addressing climate cheap hotels daytona beach change concerns in light of Hurricane Sandy: "We've never had to evacuate Zone A before and we've done it twice now within slightly over a year. The temperature of the oceans are one thing you can measure. They are warmer. When the oceans are warmer, the storms become more severe."

Oh, I heard FEMA today was closed because of the weather? I saw that only private companies are helping cheap hotels daytona beach the people. Someone said they only saw ONE redcross truck. Pathetic. Hey, obats, it is this administration that has CUT the funding of FEMA, and NOT the Repubicans. Obama owns the economy. Obama owns it all.
Good planning, Obama, didnt you , Gov. Christy and Mayor Bloomberg realize the cold weather was imminent.? So glad you made provisions for sheltering the 100,000 people who lost their homes. This is worse than Katrina. Did anyone freeze to death in New Orleans? Now Chris Matthews really has something to be glad about. .
Now I don't know about you, but living in New England cheap hotels daytona beach all my life, I am not used to this kind of powerful force of nature and destruction. The ridge vent of my roof was blown away with Sandy and who knows what else is going to happen.
I am becoming frightened to tell the truth. Cause after Sandy, New Jersey was hit with a 2.2 earthquake.and was hit with a 2.3 the week before cheap hotels daytona beach and in Connecticut we had a 5.0 a week ago and one this past summer that shook from Virginia to Connecticut and maybe further north and Diane Sawyer came on the news asking "Did you feel it?". I sure did. I watched as my dresser mirror rocked back and forth like it was going to snap off.
For two days prior to today, I witness the strangest thing. Small birds, don't know if they were partridges or what but small with white bellies covered the whole circumference of lawn around my house and when I said there was not an area you could walk on (also on the railings and floor of my back deck) without startling these birds into a frenzy and watching them crashing into my windows. There were about a thousand, if not more.This cheap hotels daytona beach went on for two solid days before this storm. I witnessed something similar in the 1980's when the telephone lines, trees and rooftops cheap hotels daytona beach were filled with crows. It looked like a scene from Hitchcock's "The Birds". My neighbor called our local station and reported it and the following day hurricane Gloria hit.
If you are like me, you watch WTNH news and weather.What was predicted cheap hotels daytona beach was a "slight dusting that will not stick to the ground". This was at 8 am and schools opened as usual. By noontime, it was whiteout cheap hotels daytona beach conditions and close to 2 inches covering everything and schools closing early. Cancellations started pouring in on the tv.
After just suffering the mess named "Sandy" last week now we are dealing with a nor'easter that by 3 pm they were planning mandatory evacuations of all 5 bouroughs of New York, areas of New Jersey, actually every place that was effected by Sandy.
