Unusual runway operations may occur tonight and early morning tomorrow at MSP due to forecasted inclement weather. The incoming winter storm is forecasted to include strong northeasterly winds. These wind conditions may restrict the FAA Air Traffic Control’s ability to use MSP’s parallel runways (Runways 12L/30R and 12R/30L).
The public is invited to join the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) at the MAC General Offices, on October 23, 2019 at 7:00 PM for the MSP Fall Listening Session.
The Airbus A350 is a long-range, wide-bodied, twin-engine airline aircraft.
Unusual runway operations are expected to occur late night tonight and early morning tomorrow at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). Beginning about 11 p.m. on 9/25/2019 the primary use parallel runways (Runways 12L/30R and 12R/30L) at MSP will need to be closed while maintenance crews perform work on the pavement and in the safety areas adjacent to the runways.
