  1. I didn't know blizzard and snow causes travel issues. What other obvious news do you guys have?

  2. Shout out from Hawaii. 83 and 🌞 πŸ˜‚πŸΉπŸ§ƒπŸΈ

  3. Slip sliding away, I'm slip sliding away. Just kidding! Hope all folks are safe. Happy holidays ❀❀

  4. It’s so weird when we don’t have blizzards in Michigan for Christmas but it was a warm one this year. Stay safe everyone!

  5. What happened to global warming?

  6. Prayer is saying that you’re going to do something, without actually doing anything.

  7. Just like NBC
    Try to make us feel sorry for people
    Instead of showing us the Actual Weather

  8. So that’s where my packages from Amazon areβ€¦β€¦πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  9. Forget travelling peak season. Stash up on all supplies, go through all safety measures, hunker down at home, be safe, and have fun.

  10. But but but Global warming..
    I mean "Climate change"…
    The name changes but the grift stays the same πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  11. Don't you know that climate change is causing something that's been happening from the beginning of time!!!

  12. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time

  13. Keep safe for Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

  14. Sitting in Alaska watching all these "deadly winter storms" for years now. Like, it's a tuesday folks. Just don't drive like it's summer during winter

  15. And people were complaining about no snow yet in the US. Well here you go. Happy.

  16. Well that climate change , human did all of itπŸ˜…

  17. More delays than a Trump trial!

  18. The SouthWest Meltdown last year had NOTHING to do with no enough staff. It was because they still had a computer system from 1990. Basically, when there was a number of flights cancelled due to bad weather it caused a flow-on effect and then all the flights were being cancelled. They didn't even know where the pilots or flight crews were stranded. For pilots and crew to find out their weekly roster they still have to call someone. In the age of computers and when SouthWest call centers were overwhelmed by stranded passengers NOBODY was getting thru to their call center. AFTER 9/11 IT IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS and unacceptable for an airline to have no idea which pilots, flight attendants and passengers are on a flight……..And to top it off South West were then sending passengers check-in luggage to the next destination without them…….People were stuck in freezing places like Denver without winter clothing. ….I have seen many flight issues before but this was a complete corporate disaster……The Chairman and board should be ashamed of themselves.

  19. Why do they insert a goofy news clip lol

  20. send snow to seattIe this is aImost Iike summer haha

  21. Crisis! It's a climate crisis! Hot in summer?!?! Snow in winter?!?! Oh my god!!!! Crisis!!!!

  22. Got my air conditioning on in Florida πŸ˜…
