Adverse winter weather conditions persist, causing significant disruptions to air travel on Tuesday.
Over 1,700 flights have already been canceled, and 3,700 are experiencing delays, as reported by the tracking site FlightAware.
Notably, both United Airlines and Southwest Airlines have each canceled more than 300 flights.
The impact of the storm spans airports across various regions, affecting operations from Houston and Chicago, where United was holding incoming flights, to New York, where Delta was holding flights bound for Kennedy airport.
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) actions were slowing or holding flights bound for Newark and LaGuardia, CNN reported.
These disruptions on Tuesday add to the challenges faced on Monday, with over 3,300 flight cancellations—the highest since the Southwest meltdown in 2022, according to FlightAware data.
Cumulatively, more than 10,000 flights have been canceled since Friday.
