Uh Ohh... Anxiety At It's Finest
Looks like after 11 trips to the rock with no weather problems, we are going to hit a big one on Wednesday. We're supposed to connect from MPS through Atlanta with a 47 minute lay-over. The Govenor of Georgia has already declared a state of emergency because of expected icing conditions. All I can hope now is that the weather people are dead wrong, the Govenor is over reacting because of what happened 2 weeks ago, the temperatures will stay above freezing, Hartsfield will be prepared and, as the "World's Busiest Airport", planes will continue to land and take-off safely.
All positive thoughts are greatly appreciated!!!

Looking forward to seeing you my friend, all will be well. We hope they are dead wrong my friend.

Good vibes and thoughts your way from a fellow Minnesotan. Irony: taking off without worry from Minnesota and worrying about ice in Atlanta. Global warming working in strange ways I guess. If flights are having issue my hope and guess would be that your connection will be proportionately delayed. Not good news but you may just have to arrive a little later than desired. That said I too hope the weather guessers are wrong and also think the governor is playing CYA... Safe and happy travels Russ.

Good Luck Russ ! Yeah, there'll be some weather issues, hopefully all will go well. After 11 trips, the anticipation is still high, as it is for us {next week will be our 11th trip to Negril, and yes we are doing the MSP to Atlanta as well.} But, rest assured, at the Atlanta airport, they must be better prepared after what happened 2 weeks ago. Cool Runnings! Mon' Soon, you'll "Walk Good"

They've got the snow plows and salt trucks standing by at Sangster
Re: Uh Ohh... Anxiety At It's Finest
Good luck Russ. That's why we booked Sun Country this year. As long as MSP is good we are out and no hassels.
Re: Uh Ohh... Anxiety At It's Finest
I'm with you. Fly to MBJ from Baltimore Thursday morning. Hoping the the snow/ice misses ALL of us!
Re: Uh Ohh... Anxiety At It's Finest
Fingers crossed for no ice (except in your drink!) - I take it there's no chance of changing flights?
Re: Uh Ohh... Anxiety At It's Finest
Our flight has already been cancelled from Atlanta to MBJ for Wednesday. On the phone with Delta - they are also cancelling flights for Thursday so we had to rebook for Friday. Oh well - at least we have flights.
