FAA issues ground stop at Denver International Airport due to thunderstorms and wind
A few thunderstorms are moving through the northeastern part of the Denver metro area and the FAA issued a ground stop on Tuesday afternoon.
The Federal Aviation Authority's order is set to be in effect until 4:45 p.m.
These monsoon storms are expected to bring strong winds and rain.
Rain showers are passing across much of the metro area, but the strongest storms are north of the city and producing gusty outflow winds across the airport.
It appears Denver's is the only airport in the country right now with a ground stop or delay that's due to weather conditions.
There could be gusty storms on Colorado's Front Range into the early part of the evening.
