Flights at several major US airports have been grounded in preparation for severe thunderstorms set to batter the East Coast. Newark Liberty Airport, Philadelphia International Airport, La Guardia and Washington Dulles International Airport have grounded flights until 5pm ET. Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport put a ground stop until 4:30pm, and Baltimore/Washington International Airport will be at a standstill until 5:15pm. The agency forecasts up to 60 mph wind gusts and quarter-size hail in some parts of the East Coast. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) noted that there is up to a 60 percent chance the ground stops could be extended at certain airports. The ground stops have also sparked flight delays, with travelers at Newark Liberty Airport facing more than three-hour wait times.
