CNN is reporting that TSA staff went home during the ground stop and, now that it's been lifted, they're not around to screen bags so people can't get through security to their flights. What an utter cluster.

1. Lose an election in historic terms. 2. Shut down air traffic nationwide on the next Friday night. 3. Don't explain what happened. 4. Blame the Republican Congress who has done anything you want.

Pilots and cabin attendants can fly only so many hours a day. They will be timing out. They'll keep going if they are in the air. They will be in different cities than planned for tonight. Airplanes will be in the wrong places too. People at the airlines are now starting to sort all this out.

Air to Ground Message: I TRIED CALLING TRACKING BUT TO NO AVAIL. ANY CHANCE YOU COULD TELL THEM WE TIMED OUT... IT WOULD BE NICE TO LEAVE AND GO TO A HOTEL Area: Philadelphia, PA, USA A: #a8dab8363b8 F: #f5afd92eb5d

KC Current Spokesperson says their flight was impacted by the FAA nationwide ground stop. "We are collaborating with key stakeholders, including the NWSL and our charter partner, to identify next steps in order to arrive safely ahead of our match against Gotham FC on Sunday."

A failed update to the L3Harris-run network that connects US air traffic control facilities caused the nationwide outage. The update forced the FAA's telecommunications system to reboot, and it crashed when it came back up. - CBS News
