New York's Kennedy Airport, while going through some surface appearance improvements, has been called a Third World Airport many times. A few days ago, when it was around 17 degrees, pipes broke in a terminal and water flooded over the baggage claim area, causing chaos. Maybe they should get some advice from the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport people on how to handle cold weather...

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Flooding from a water main break forced the temporary suspension of some flights at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on Sunday, adding to the misery of travelers after a winter storm canceled or delayed hundreds of flights in recent days.

Water poured from the ceiling onto a check-in counter and covered large areas of the floor of Terminal 4, video on CNN showed. The disruption occurred while the U.S. Northeast continued to endure bone-chilling weather with the New York temperature at 17 degrees Fahrenheit (-8 Celsius).
