I know there's the thread on the OT discussing the weather here, however this thread is to discuss any travel or airline waivers that may appear. Considering all the airlines posted a waiver today for "thunderstorms" in NYC with the weather not being all that bad, I think they'll post something for Wednesday/Thursday/Friday soon based off projected paths from Houston-Nola area. If anyone sees a waiver please bump the thread and we'll help people get rebooked.

I'll keep this thread updated as I'm flying out on Friday morning out of BTR to head to Sweden. I have a vested interest in this system
