Weather forecasts for 11 days out might as well be 11 years out.

I’d be more worried about delays as a high volume day plus the weather, once they have to de-ice planes it can all get backed up

Bingo, de iceing is super time consuming + ATC can get really backed up during the holiday

No way. You need a blizzard to ground flights. That forecast will probably change 100 times before Christmas.

Lolol I don’t disagree! If you look at aviation weather center.gov (and know how to interpret) it’s typically accurate for week of/3 days prior from departure. Outside that range, it’s anyone’s guess. But it typically won’t be snow that leads to a weather cancel, instead it’ll be thunderstorms (due lightening) or wind that’s really strong going at a right angle against the direction of the runway (can cause aircraft to pretty much fly sideways on takeoff/landing if a direct crosswind over the rwy is strong enough). Autopilot will allow an aircraft to land itself even in visibility that’s under 1 mile and clouds down to the ground

Snow should be fine so long as it doesn’t create crazy crosswinds or convective weather like thunderstorms (more typically during spring/summer)

Definitely should be fine, JFK is well equipped to handle this. Most that could happen is a delay in my opinion and even that would warrant multiple inches of snow.

Just make sure you have a direct flight and you'll be fine.

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last. So many times they are limping or in a wheelchair boarding. And then when we land that are the first to jump up and scurry off. Just not ethical.
