Severe Weather Diverts Vice President's Plane

Vice President Kamala Harris' plane, Air Force Two, was diverted from its original route due to severe weather conditions.
The aircraft was en route from Atlanta, Georgia, to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland when it was rerouted to Washington Dulles International Airport.
The diversion was caused by the aircraft encountering 'wind shear', a sudden shift in wind direction or speed that can be hazardous during takeoff and landing.
The severe weather is part of a larger storm system impacting the Eastern United States, causing power outages and prompting emergency proclamations in several states.
No injuries were reported from the diversion of Air Force Two.
