As Winter Storm Frida approaches the east coast, Southwest Airlines has taken proactive measures by canceling many flights from Baltimore and the surrounding region. With strained resources and snowy weather anticipated to sweep through their Baltimore hub, Southwest has canceled more than 135 flights from the Maryland gateway as inclement weather and COVID-19 complicate their operations.

Well, they could be sitting in their cars on I-95 with no food or restroom available. Shame on Virginia for not putting periodic turn arounds in the freeway medians so you can turn traffic back.
u turn on a freeway into oncoming traffic, pure genius
Yes, that's what the American motorist needs, more ways to do a “u” turn in front of oncoming traffic who, of course are travelling with the utmost safety in mind. If a simple weather check is beyond the average motorists capability just imagine the brains needed to judge the speed of the oncoming traffic in a snowstorm? lol
Here in southern AZ, there are freeway medium crossing U-turns mostly for "authorized" vehicles. Cops, maintenance, etc. I'm sure those unauthorized will get in a "race" with the cops if caught.
In my area, we do not have snowfalls with the same depth or anywhere north.
Freeways here have the medium lower than the regular pavement level.
I see they blocked off several crossovers when an interchange was rebuilt.
VA should have gotten front loaders to get the snow out of their crossovers.

Any time an airport is doing IFR operations only (not even CAT II or III) the number of landing per hour is reduced by ATC. Airline schedules are not based on these reduced rates, so flights wind up getting cancelled.
It’s wiser not to try to challenge snow storms . We rather safely watch the storm on our TV screens, instead of experiencing the storm’s challenges of taking off and landing.
