Perhaps someone familiar with #acarsdrama #avgeek can tell me what happened that caused this plane to divert back to the Austin airport. Anybody know?

So you can search acarsdrama at jumpseat.acarsdrama.com but the plane spouting this ACARS is actually N856SY

Seems they were going from Cancun to Dallas, were put into a holding pattern on the way into Dallas, then decided to divert to San Antonio. Dallas is currently #4 on most disrupted airports on Flightradar so that is why planes are likely diverting.

@bruceturner It looks like you confused the question because the two images are not for the same flight. @chillybot found the one for the ACARSdrama image - but it isn't what you asked about departing/returning AUS. N458WN is the one. Usually airlines & news don't report on diverts. One can make an educated guess on likelihood of weather, mechanical, medical or bad-pax/misbehavior. Since the plane was scheduled to proceed to DAL, probably not mechanical. FAA advisory says thunderstorms at DAL.
