Tropical Storm Elsa: Sarasota-Bradenton airport reopens with no damage
Elsa, which has since weakened to a tropical storm, caused 36 flight cancelations at Sarasota-Bradenton between Tuesday and Wednesday, Piccolo said. The airport's website shows that several flights have been canceled on Wednesday, including Southwest Airlines flights to St. Louis and Chicago. But this is because of several factors on the airline side of things, like staffing and reestablishing aircraft routes following a storm, airport chief operating officer Mark Stuckey said. The highest wind recorded on the airfield during the storm was 54 mph at 10:46 p.m. Tuesday, Stuckey said. "...
