Overnight storms caused a travel nightmare for passengers flying in
and out of Lexington's Blue Grass Airport Wednesday evening and Thursday
morning.
Strong storms prevented overnight flights from arriving in Lexington.
As a result, aircraft for departing flights in the morning weren't
available.
Airport officials say six flights canceled overnight. Four incoming
flights were diverted to other airports. Lightning also knocked out some
runway lights, but officials say everything still meets FAA standards.
According to the airport website, there were at least four
cancellations and two delays Thursday morning. Delta flights to Detroit,
Washington Reagan and Atlanta were scrubbed, along with a U.S. Airways
flight to Charlotte and an American Airlines flight to Dallas-Fort
Worth.
