Travel Challenges During Thanksgiving

Millions of Americans are traveling for Thanksgiving, but severe weather conditions are complicating their journeys. With heavy snow hitting the Rocky Mountains and rain forecasted from the Midwest to the Northeast, over 3,000 flights have already been delayed out of nearly 50,000 scheduled. Travelers between New York City and Washington, D.C. reported heavy traffic on the roads, making the holiday getaway feel more like a crawl rather than a straightforward trip. The combination of inclement weather and high passenger numbers at airports is expected to pose challenges throughout the holiday weekend.
