TAMPA - Local rainy conditions created few problems at Tampa International Airport on Monday as the first line of Tropical Storm Alberto approached the Florida mainland.

Among 189 departures scheduled Monday after 9:30 a.m., just one flight - a Delta Air Lines departure to Boston - was canceled and six other flights were delayed.

Real-time information for flights at Tampa is available on-line at http://www.tampaairport.com/sitemap.html where a link to flight data is shown.

The Federal Aviation Administration’s real-time display showed operations at all major U.S. airports with the exception of San Francisco International were within 15 minutes of schedule.

Aiport officials say travelers should call the airlines rather than the airport regarding their flights for the most up-to-date information as the storm continues toward Florida.
