Just got home from working a shift from hell at N90/EWR today. With JFk on the ILS 13L, and LGA on the ILS 13, very strong crosswinds made landing on 22L an adventure for most of the dayshift, and even when we tried rwy 11, we had more aircraft go around and divert than actual landings.

BTW on an earlier post I mentioned that when JFK and LGA go to the ILS 13 that it has very little impact on EWR I was referring to when EWR is landing rwy 22L or 4R. We can't land on ILS11 while JFK is on the ILS13L because a go around off RWY 11 (and boy we had a lot of those today) goes right into the JFK downwind on the river (they're at 2500 by the Verrazano bridge going up the river. We have to shut down JFK traffic (which we had to do several times during the shift) to run rwy 11's, and alternate airport hold/grounds stops. Same was going on with LGA and TEB all morning alternating holds/ground stops.

Total mess. It was one of the worst shifts I've had in a long time. I think we had more diverts than landings.
