FORT WORTH TEXAS, DFW AIRPORT - The rainfall that started Thursday and continued mostly uninterrupted through Saturday caused transportation problems both on the ground and in the air.The weather caused headaches for air travelers, too, including the cancellation of 175 flights at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport by 5 p.m. Friday, according to David Magaņa, airport spokesman. By 9:30 p.m., the flight-tracking website flightaware.com listed 298 canceled flights. To the south and east, high water caused Interstate 35 to be closed in West and Interstate 45 to be closed in Corsicana, the Texas Department of Transportation reported. No injuries or significant damage has been reported. Emergency responders were working to assist stranded motorists in I-45 backups reported to extend for more than 12 miles.
