The OIS page says they're on a SWAP right now.  So it isn't necessarily problems that they're having, just reroutes.  New York Approach and Center close arrival and departure corridors, and sometimes the SWAP program breaks down a bit.

There's a newer style rerouting program out there that I have seen a couple of times.  I heard ORD giving goofy route clearances once.  The name of the program escapes me at this point though

ah. I see.

Also I just switched from ground to tower, and I finally heard the word "weather".
