East Coast Braces for Coastal Storm Disrupting Early Christmas Travel

A coastal low-pressure system is expected to merge with another storm system, creating a messy weekend and wet start to the week for early Christmas travelers along the East Coast. While major cities along the Interstate 95 corridor are likely to experience rain, there is potential for snow in interior portions of the mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Travel on roads and at major airports may be impacted due to heavy rain and gusty winds.
