The Green Bay Packers will be arriving in Atlanta later than expected, after the team was unable to take off from Green Bay's Austin Straubel International Airport due to heavy fog, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky.

When all flights out of Green Bay were cancelled as a result, the team took a bus to Milwaukee in order to depart for Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

At approximately 6:30 p.m. ET, the Packers took off for Atlanta, putting an end to a chaotic afternoon.

The Packers square off against the Falcons at 3:05 p.m. ET.
