They had to switch LGA to 13. I don't think they worry so much about TEB. On another dark and stormy night we missed in an L10 on the ILS 13 at LGA and they slam-dunk us onto the JFK 13L. Got set up and had a G/S flag. The G/S was OTS but they didn't tell us. Learned later it was on the ATIS, which we didn't have time to check. It all worked out fine but it was breaking links in the chain.
