NEW YORK (PIX11) — While the heavy rain from the storm on Thursday is behind us, ground delays continue at all tri-state area airports.

According to New York City Emergency Management, John F. Kennedy, LaGuardia, and Newark airports are under FAA traffic restrictions due to high winds and reduced staffing in air traffic control centers.

Flights to JFK are being held at their departure airports, officials say. A ground stop is in effect until 7:30 p.m. due to staffing shortages in the air traffic system.

Ground delays at JFK are also averaging one hour due to wind, according to the FAA.
