Exceptional storms still happen a lot more often than train derailments. It doesn't take a hurricane. I was in one of the last flights to land at EWR on February 25 before all the area airports were closed for 12 hours. From the ground it was a moderately windy day. In the air, it was scary as hell, and the first time I vomited on a plane, with about a quarter of the other passengers. There were no derailments or train delays that day.
