Several major airports up and down the East Coast saw flight delays stranding passengers from New York to Washington, DC as storms rolled into the area Monday evening. 

The nightmare comes as travelers gear up for the holiday weekend.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced an initial ground delay at New York City’s JFK International Airport shortly after 4:00 p.m., with the average departure delay lasting approximately 90 minutes.
