TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - Rainy weather  forced Air Force One into an aborted landing as the president campaigns in Ohio.

The plane carrying President Barack Obama was about to land at the Toledo airport on Wednesday when the aircraft commander decided to circle the airfield because of turbulence. The plane landed safety a few minutes later.

Obama was on his way to a campaign appearance in Bowling Green, Ohio. There was no significant delay in the president's schedule.
