Another day of holiday travel derailed by Chicago winter storm

FOX 32's Joanie Lum reports from O'Hare International Airport as hundreds of flights have been delayed and canceled for a second day in a row.

Delays, cancelations and people stranded, all happening at O’Hare International Airport for the holidays.

The cold weather is impacting everyone and everything with weather warnings across the country. Travelers have to be flexible and strategic.

Passengers who had flights scheduled for Friday were encouraged to change flights to go earlier or later, but not everyone can do that. Some travelers kept their Friday reservation and just crossed their fingers.

It’s so cold, Santa Claus is right at home, helping warm hearts on this blustery day when everyone is at the mercy of winter weather.

"It's been really fun here, but we have family and people we want to be with for Christmas," one hopeful traveler said.
