Thanksgiving Travel Chaos: Weather Woes and Snow Blankets Northern Maine

A storm system is expected to disrupt Thanksgiving travel plans in the central and eastern US, with severe thunderstorms, heavy rain, and snow forecasted. Over 3,000 flights have been delayed and 60 cancelled, while 2.7 million passengers are expected to fly on Wednesday. The Department of Transportation Secretary, Pete Buttigieg, reminded air travelers of their rights, including full refunds for cancelled flights. Wyoming is under a winter storm warning, and lower gas prices and more affordable flights have contributed to increased travel this year. Chicago airports are expected to be busy, and traffic has already piled up in the Washington, DC area. Buffalo Niagara International Airport has reopened after a car explosion at the US-Canada border, and Thursday's forecast looks fairly pleasant.
