MANHATTAN — A JetBlue flight landed safely at John F. Kennedy International Airport Tuesday morning after reportedly being hit by lightning.

No injuries were reported on Flight 180 coming in from Phoenix, Ariz., according to the Port Authority.

Although flights at JFK are running close to schedule, Newark International and LaGuardia airports are reporting approximately one hour delays, due to low visibility, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
