Amazing that runway is use was 22, yet the wind was 110 up to 27 kts. Seems they have more problems at KJFK that just controller attitude.

No, too wet and windy.
The title of this article is misleading.
The runway was not too short, but ATC was not able to offer a landing runway into the wind.
Good performance of the Lufthansa Cockpit Crew.
They clarified all the little traps that ATC provided (heading readbacks, IAD iso DCA etc.)

Sky stretching between LH Captain and ATC is a bit scary. I can understand LH wanted to deliver Customers to JFK but this conversation went too far. But the inboud planning should be better on JFK...You can predict too heavy airplane plus tail wind.
