🚨GROUND STOP AT NEWARK AFTER TOWER EVACUATION🚨 The control tower at Newark Liberty International Airport, New Jersey, was evacuated Monday morning after a burning odor was reported coming from an elevator, prompting a ground stop. This incident temporarily leaves two of the three major New York City-area airports non-operational. A closure NOTAM remains in effect until 1500 UTC. Here’s the current situation of airports in New York. Newark Liberty (EWR): Still dealing with a ground stop after the control tower evacuation due to smoke/burning smell. Flights were temporarily halted, and delays are expected even as operations restart gradually. LaGuardia (LGA): Closed until at least ~14:00 local (≈18:00 UTC) following the fatal runway collision. Reopening depends on the ongoing investigation, so expect major delays and diversions even after it resumes. JFK: Operational, but experiencing significant delays and congestion, partly due to ripple effects and broader staffing/security issues. Via @theatcapp

Here's the ATC audio from LaGuardia Airport tower, recorded around 11:40 p.m. Sunday, capturing the sequence of events leading up to the collision between Air Canada Express CRJ-900 operated by Jazz Aviation LP and Airport Fire Truck 1. Audio extracted from LiveATC. Prayers 🤲
