1:00Now PlayingA massive winter storm stretching 2,300 miles across the United States has paralyzed air travel, forcing the closure of nearly two dozen airports and triggering a ground stop at one of the nation’s busiest hubs.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued a ground stop for Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) on Sunday as icing conditions deteriorated. Officials warned the stop could be extended if the weather continues to worsen.
The disruption has hit North Texas particularly hard. According to the tracking service FlightAware:
DFW International: 42% of flights have been canceled.
Dallas Love Field: 58% of flights have been canceled.
Fort Worth Alliance: Remains among the 21 airports nationwide currently closed due to the storm.
Fort Worth-based American Airlines has borne the brunt of the atmospheric chaos, reporting a system-wide total of 1,400 cancellations so far today.
While Texas faces grounded fleets, airports in the Northeast and Southwest are struggling to keep pace with the freezing precipitation. Albuquerque, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo are among the major sites currently undergoing intensive deicing procedures to maintain limited operations.
The FAA and airline carriers are urging all travelers to verify their flight status online before heading to the airport.
