Delta's policy on this type of situation prior to the crash was to stablize the plane and continue the approach and landing. After the crash and investigation the policy was to stablize the plane and get out of there. Try another runway or alternate or wait for the storm to pass. I believe that as part of the NTSB investigation there were about 10 flighdeck crews in simulators that were unaware of what conditions they about to fly into. All of them lost control and crashed.
