Fog Closes Cleveland Airport With 34 Planes Delayed
A heavy fog shrouded Cleveland Wednesday night forcing air traffic to shift to Akron-Canton. The 24 hour period ended 6 am recorded 84 safe landings and departures at Cleveland as arrivals and departures at the port tumbled. Passengers for New York and other points were driven to Akron Canton to board, while others were ferried to Cleveland for connections. The control tower handled the spillover smoothly despite congestion with many airliners on the ramp at once. Fog lingered inland to Akron-Canton for two hours causing several departures to be delayed and no arrivals during that window.
