Arctic Blast and Lake-Effect Snow Disrupt Post-Thanksgiving Travel Across U.S.
An Arctic blast is causing severe winter weather across the northern U.S., affecting post-Thanksgiving travel with heavy snow and dangerously cold winds. Approximately 7 million people are under winter alerts in states like Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York. Lake effect snow is creating hazardous travel conditions, with some areas expecting up to 60 inches of snow. The National Guard has been deployed in parts of New York, and travel advisories are in place as temperatures remain significantly below average.
