Public Safety

Airport today.

As of 2:24 p.m., nearly 30 flights were delayed and six were canceled,

according to the airport's website.

Southwest had the majority of delayed flights. Most of the canceled flights originated in Philadelphia, New York, New Jersey and other East Coast cities getting pounded by a massive storm, which is dumping snow recorded in feet rather than inches.

For those traveling or expecting passengers, it is strongly suggested to check with airlines regarding possible delays or flight cancellations.

KPBS has created a public safety coverage policy to guide decisions on what stories we prioritize, as well as whose narratives we need to include to tell complete stories that best serve our audiences. This policy was shaped through months of training with the Poynter Institute and feedback from the community. You can read the full policy here.
