New York City airports experienced ground delays and a tornado threat was issued for parts of New Jersey as remains of Storm Debby closed in on the area Friday morning.

LaGuardia Airport in Queens issued a ground stop due to thunderstorms at 7:15 a.m., which was downgraded to a ground delay by 8:21 a.m., PIX11 said.

Travelers are still expecting delays of over an hour, the outlet noted.

Newark Liberty International Airport also noted departure delays of about 45 minutes, while John F. Kennedy International Airport had backups of about 30 minutes, the FAA said.

Debby is a real downer

Debbie is already in central upstate NY Finger Lake region and will be gone in a few hours.

Compared to what the SE just dealt with, this is Little Debby.

Climate change. Trump's fault.

Crushing freedom and prosperity will fix it.

I have ventusky.com set on metric. The English system is too confusing.

Just funnin’ around. Each system has its merits.

When rods and chains come back into vogue, all will be right with the world...

But not furlong! 😊
