if you were trying to arrive into ORD between monday night and wednesday morning or deptart out of ORD on those days..it was next to impossible. we had winds that gusted up to 60mph. over 200 ( i think that was the total) flights were cancelled and a crap load were delayed. yes there were also thunderstorms. and just because it may be nice in dallas the weather between dallas and your origin may not have been or your alternate airport may have had weather too. alot of people dont get that. this was weather just like florida...it could storm like a mother one minute then completly clear up and things take time to get back on track
