What is happening at LGA? I don't see anything on the weather radar but I see a bunch of delays due to "thunderstorms"?

LGA is happening at LGA. Such a cluster.

There is a loose line of storms from eastern Ohio down through much of Virginia, but the ground stops and delays throughout the Northeast do seem well in excess of normal for this. D.C. area would be impacted by this, but the complete ground stop for PHL and NYC seems overkill here, unless perhaps NY Center ATC is also understaffed today. Wouldn't be the first time.

A runway straight up broke earlier today.

EWR was a CF last night with many many delays due to "weather" but radar was mostly clear along the entire eastern seaboard. Conspiracy?

It honestly seems like it. Airlines likely don't get penalized for weather delays, I'm shocked they are labeling this weather. 4 hour delay and counting. The ground stop is absurd.

http://www.fly.faa.gov/ois/ is looking bad now. But this one isn't on the airlines - clearly ATC this time.

But there is no weather in LGA.....and that website claims there is.

No it lists the reason for the delay, not local weather. The reason can be regional. For instance, a solid line of storms from Pittsburgh to offshore the Delmarva coast will block all southbound departing routes from LGA and the site will show "Weather/Thunderstorms" as the reason even if it's clear and sunny in NYC at the time. Today, it just appeared that the magnitude of the delays was larger than would be expected for the storms in the Mid Atlantic at the time - sadly I have a lot of experience waiting out such delays. If I had a penny for each time I heard "but the weather at the destination is fine" as a rebuttal for an en route weather delay during all my traveling, I'd be rich.

Last time I flew out of NY I was stuck on the runway for 6 hours - yes 6 hours - before they finally let us depart. The storms were not really bad at all. NY airports seem to be extra sensitive to weather from my experiences.

@PWC1: I understand that but unless there's a circle of storms around NYC, that shouldn't warrant a complete ground stop. I understand that a storm in Pittsburgh would prevent an ATL-LGA flight from getting in, but what about a ORD-LGA (west), a BOS-LGA (East), or a SYR-LGA (north). I saw the weather and there was certainly some weather around the mid-Atlantic, just not sure how that warrants a 5-hour ground stop.

@OP no argument from me :-). ATC in the NE isn't the picture of efficiency.

PwC A recruiter from PWC reached out to me to ask if I’d consider a different office the one I applied to, since it’s full.

Is the compensation high at PWC? Is there a possible moving expenses? Any insight or advice would help me make a decision. Thank you!
