(Nov. 22) -- It's not the start to the holiday travel season that one might have hoped for.
This afternoon, a 747 cargo jet operated by Dynasty Air/Ocean Freight Co. slid off the runway at Seattle's Sea-Tac Airport during the city's first snowfall of the year, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The pilots on Flight 5321 apparently lost control of the jet upon landing, the Seattle Times reported. So far, there are no reports of any casualties.
All incoming flights have been put on hold because of ice, KING 5 News reported.
The storm, which has already dropped more than 2 inches on Seattle and sent temperatures plummeting, comes as many residents prepared to travel for the Thanksgiving holiday. But the area's major highways were turned into veritable parking lots as dozens of accidents snarled traffic on I-5 and I-405, two of the biggest highways. Factoring in the wind chill, the temperature today felt as though it was zero degrees.
Another 2 to 5 inches of snow is expected tonight, KOMO News reported.
