I've waited a year for this day, and the weather may not let it happen.

Good luck to you two, Caz,

This past Christmas my husband and I flew into Ottawa. The forecast there was for freezing rain as well - starting about 4 in the afternoon and our flight getting in around midnight. We would have been marooned in Detroit where we changed planes if they stopped flying, but there was no delay, no problems. The runways had been de-iced and we landed with a loud 'crunch' which continued as the plane rolled down the runway. I could see the ice flying by my window in big sheets off of the braking wheels. We had to deplane outside as they didn't have inside walkways for the planes and that was the hardest part - we slipped and slid over the coated icy asphalt to the terminal while we were pelted with the icy rain. He will be fine. Still, I hope the freezing rain holds off until he arrives and you are happily ensconced safely back at home.
