Seems odd that last week in the middle of the chaos the flights seemed to be only 3 hours behind and getting worse as time goes on [?]
Is this because things have toughened up in the US [?]

The disruption of the first day has a knock on effect, which builds. You can expect to see this disruption increasing for a few weeks I would imagine. There are strict rules about turn around times for crew and the amount of time they have to have off between flights for health and safety reasons. If flights are delayed, it bumps all the schedules around, especially for airlines which are operating well below the required flight crew levels. I shall name no names!
