2022 Christmas meltdown Competition enteries

Winner winner chicken dinner! EWR tower fire sprinkler burst in the tower cab. Tower cab had to evacuate to the old United tower. Radios have about 4 mile range and no radar. 1 in 1 out, 10 mile spacing on final. They can’t use the normal tower until the fire suppression system is fixed so this might be a several day long issue.

Yeah, earlier in this thread, you spoke waaaaaaayyyyy to soon…..

Well, stop smoking in the center!
 
I heard that 73 was diverting to FAI. So I pulled an ANC ATIS and it was gusting to 56

That makes more sense. What an awful divert though. I thought we diverted to PAEN from ANC regardless of how much worse the wx forecast is there.......jk, my last ANC turn alternate was PAEN until it was FAI, long after we surmised through ACARS WX that there was no chance we were going to Kenai. It was pretty much "thanks dispatch, welcome to 2 hours ago"
 
I departed Santa Paula (CA) yesterday. Passing 2,000' I noticed it was 85F.

We're supposed to get weather mid week, but I've never heard of a rain shovel.
