Yet More Winter Weather

Yikes, it's been a tough winter for traveling - and we're not even a month into winter! Soon after a rough blizzard the day after Christmas (that caused Delta to lower its profit projection by $45 million), more storms are screwing up travel plans.

There were a couple of storms in the Northeast this weekend, though nothing too major. But now a storm will bring ice to the Southeast, and later climb up the coast and dump snow on the mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Awesome.

I think those flying on AirTran and Delta could face some trouble if traveling through Atlanta, which will be hit with a good amount of ice on Monday. In fact, one meteorolgist I follow tweeted that it is possible "southern cities like Atlanta could be shut down by ice Monday morning." I wouldn't be surprised if Charlotte faces some issues as well.

As usual, go check your airline's website to see their travel policies when it comes to weather. Generally speaking, you'll be allowed one change for free on a nonrefundable ticket.
