Dallas Love Field Spokesperson Patrick Clarke tells Fox 4:

"All hands on deck as we speak. We have our snowplow sweepers ready to go tomorrow. We also have our anti-icing and de-icing agents ready. We have been working around the clock. We have crews coming in, staying overnight actually in anticipation of what mother nature might send our way."
