Great to see four hours before your flight to Portland
Strong crosswinds at Seattle-Tacoma International made for a rough landing yesterday for one Northwest flight … and video cameras were there to catch the bumpy landing. The plane is about ready to touch down when viewers can see the jet start to abruptly shake back and forth by the strong crosswinds. The pilots abort the landing and circle around for a second attempt. That goes better, though winds again appear to catch the plane as it nears the runway. Check out the video on the website of WCCO Channel 4 of Minneapolis/St. Paul.

oh wow!!! dan, i hope you made it back safely! i just flew to seattle on thanksgiving and the weather was stormy then, but not NEARLY that bad! my daughter was with me and as it was, there was turbulence, more than normal, and she was frightened. that is unbelievable! my niece, andrea, is a new student at seattle pacific university and we went to visit her so she wouldn't be alone for thanksgiving. now she will be flying back there, but i'm not sure when--surely not until after the 1st.
please let me know you arrived safely!!!
much love,
karen
