Windy weather causes flight delays
The Washington area has a windy afternoon ahead, according to the Post's Capital Weather Gang. Jason Samenow says gusts in excess of 40 mph are possible, and the area is under a high wind warning from 2 to 7 p.m. However, airports in the Northeast are already experiencing severe delays due to the wind. New York and Philadelphia area airport delays are in excess of three hours in some cases, according to the Federal Aviation Administration, so check with your airline if you're connecting through any of those locations.
