Winter Storm Brings Chaos and Cold Across Multiple States

Multiple states across the United States are under winter weather alerts as a post-Thanksgiving storm brings heavy snowfall and gusty winds. The Southern Rockies, Central Plains, Mississippi Valley Region, and western Great Lakes are expected to be impacted, with hazardous travel conditions and accumulations of 5 to 8 inches of snow. Lake-effect snow off the Great Lakes could affect travel in areas south of Buffalo, New York. Parts of other midwestern states and the Mid-Atlantic to New England coasts are also under winter weather advisories, with moderate to heavy rain expected. Travel disruptions are anticipated, particularly along Interstate 91 and in cities like Providence and Boston.
