No doubt it's the usual gaggle found in any airport, following the sun southward. "Where's my boarding pass, where's my wallet, where's the bathroom, why is my flight cancelled, anybody know a good restaurant/hotel?"

Meanwhile, the locals (and the hovering thieves) are trying to figure out how to get a few bites off the passing bounty.

Any Canada Geese down there? Having watched them flock southward over the last month, I can appreciate their annual bug-out strategy. In the next 24 hours, our forecast is for 6" of snow, then dropping down to -26C. Bloody 'eck.
