john roy major US airports feature delayed flights on Monday due to extreme weather, causing substantial delays for travelers.
The average delay for aircraft departing from New York's LaGuardia (LGA) Airport is more than two hours, while some flights are being held for almost four hours, Daily Mail reported.
There is a 60 percent possibility that these delays may be prolonged, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said.
The warning comes as East Coast is experiencing severe gusts and heavy rainfall due to the nor'easter.
Strong winds have also prompted the FAA to impose a ground stop at Boston Logan Airport (BOS) until at least 11 a.m. ET.
Although some aircraft are already delayed up to six hours and 33 minutes, the average delay is currently about three hours and 42 minutes.
Major US and Canadian airports, including Cleveland, Toronto, Montreal, New York, Washington, Ottawa, and Quebec City, have also experienced disruptions due to the ground stop.
975 flights suffered delays, with an average delay of 41 minutes and some flights being delayed for as long as 89 minutes, according to airlines.
