PHILADELPHIA - July 29, 2013 (WPVI) -- Power has been restored to an area of the Philadelphia International Airport that was left in the dark as a result of drenching rain and flooding Sunday night.

The massive deluge of rain knocked out a substation supplying power to Terminal A East, which ultimately led to the cancellation of all American Airlines flights Monday morning.

Also affected were Spirit Air and US Airways - both of which have some ticket counters in the terminal


Another news story said that the A concourse was most affected. How badly were US Int'l flights hit?

Wasnt this the same storm that sent CLT into Chaos Saturday Afternoon? Large amount of Cancellations and Massive Delays....

PHL had 8.02" of rain in a 7 hour span. I live 75 miles and we got less than a .25". I had a friend fly to DEN last night and I believe he got in 5 hours late.
