SCRIPT INFO:
(From WFAA's website)
American Airlines and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport blamed the
Christmas Day snow and ice storm for stranding thousands of holiday
passengers.
Airlines at D/FW are reporting numerous cancellations on Wednesday and they
advise passengers to check their flight status before coming to the airport
at this link, and give themselves extra time to drive to the airport with
potentially icy road conditions.
American said de-icing of its departing aircraft began in the middle of the
afternoon Tuesday. That process backed up flights and led to dozens of
planes stuck at gates or on the tarmac. The airport is prepared for more de-
icing Wednesday, if necessary.
American Airlines said approximately 432 departures were canceled on Tuesday
, most of them in the evening hours out of D/FW. About 1,000 passengers
stayed in the D/FW terminals on Tuesday night, with airport personnel
providing cots, blankets, toiletry kits and other comforts, according to
airport spokesman David Magana.
A passenger on American Flight 1501 to Las Vegas spoke to WFAA by phone as
she was sitting on her plane. The woman, who did not wish to be identified,
had been on board almost five hours, but the jet never left the gate.
While we were on the phone, the clearly-exasperated pilot addressed his
passengers:
"I've made more personal phone calls than I know what to do with. I've spent
my last quarter, to be honest with you. It's beyond reproach. I have no
words to tell you to how sorry I am. This is way, way above our heads, by
people who obviously - in my humble opinion - don't have a clue what they're
doing."
Other passengers shared stories of bring stuck waiting to deplane for an
estimated three hours. Government regulations say a carrier can be fined if
passengers are not allowed to deplane after a three-hour wait.
Flight 1501 never left the gate on its trip to Las Vegas. The flight was
canceled.
"You know, I work hard, and this was my whole year saved up," the frustrated
passenger told News 8.
She and her boyfriend scrambled through the airport to another terminal
hoping to catch a later flight. But at last check, they were hoping to make
a Wednesday flight instead.
D/FW Airport said it was working to accommodate passengers who were facing
an unexpected overnight stay at the sprawling transportation hub.
"Yesterday's rapid snowfall, ice and winds required us to implement a de-
icing program and severely hampered our ability to safely service aircraft
as we normally would," said American Airlines media relations spokesperson
Kent Powell, in a statement. "Our hindered ability to de-ice and approach
aircraft with ground equipment, jetways, and ramp stairs created serious
delays -- for aircraft inbound and outbound. Operating safely was our focus.

Although it may be clear AROUND Tulsa, folks fuRther south are having a lot
of trouble this afternoon.
Snowfall along the I-40 corridor and south left roads slick and hazardous,
across much of Oklahoma Tuesday. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation
said slick and hazardous conditions remain in several counties.
Crews have reported slick spots, mainly at bridges and overpasses, in the
Tulsa area, including Rogers, Mayes, Osage and Pawnee counties. ODOT said
crews reported slick spots on Interstate 40 near Shawnee.
Highways in southeastern Oklahoma are experiencing heavy snow and slick
spots, especially on roads in the mountains. In Oklahoma City, the roads are
mainly clear, but ODOT said drivers should still use caution.
The National Guard tells News On 6, a total of 40 soldiers were activated
ahead of the storm and told to be ready to assist people stranded on
Oklahoma roads.
Units in Broken Arrow, Chandler and Okmulgee were called to duty. The Broken
Arrow and Chandler units have since been released and the Okmulgee unit
remains on stand-by.
Major Geoff Legler said they have 16 soldiers with eight Humvees on stand-by
, should the Oklahoma Highway Patrol need their assistance.
The National Guard has plans to call up units in McAlester and Durant,
should conditions there worsen.
ODOT said crews will continue to work to treat and clear the roads as the
precipitation and freezing conditions are expected to continue. They said
drivers are strongly encouraged to avoid travel Tuesday evening into
Wednesday morning, if possible.

It may have been a white Christmas (12/25) in Little Rock, Arkansas, but
drivers in the area say it felt less like a winter wonderland and more like
a
day to stay inside.
The slippery roads and power outages created hazardous driving conditions
throughout the city.
Lights at interchanges were out all over Little Rock due to trees downing
power lines.
On one street, a huge tree was uprooted-- taking down the lines and blocking
the whole road, making sure drivers can't get through.
Many people were nervous about the snowfall totals-- wondering how they'll
stay warm overnight and get to work in the morning Wednesday (12/26).
