Weather grounds Thunderbirds
Persistent, low clouds grounded the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, which were scheduled to fly over Daytona International Speedway during the opening program to the Daytona 500.
Federal regulations bar the aerial team from conducting flyovers when the clouds are lower than the 1,500 feet above the ground. On Sunday, the overcast clouds stayed below 1,200 feet.
"Nobody wanted to fly over that speedway today more than we did," said Lt. Col. Greg Moseley, Thunderbirds commander and lead pilot. "We cherish the opportunity to be a part of 'The Great American Race,' but safety is always our first priority."
