Weather concerns continued to force hundreds of flight cancellations out of or into Boston Logan International Airport, after Thursday's storm left the airport virtually paralyzed.

Logan rank third in the nation in flight cancellations Friday morning, behind only New York's bustling air travel locations in Queens' LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy International airports.

More than 200 flights into or out of Logan had been cancelled Friday, or roughly 25 percent of the airport's total morning traffic, according to FlightAware, a Houston-based airline tracking service. It topped the nation in cancelling flights out, with 158. 



The development comes a day after more than 750 flights involving Logan -- almost 80 percent of the day's intended total -- were canceled on Friday, when more than 13 inches of snow fell on the city. 

The cancelations indicate the Boston area saw some of the nation's worst weather as a powerful winter storm, called a "bomb cyclone" by meteorologists, swept up the East Coast coast yesterday.

Boston's ground travel infrastructure, including its Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority subways, were fully up and running on a normal weekday schedule on Friday and had yet to experience any issues as of 8 a.m. Friday.
