Central Illinois – A significant snowstorm is expected to disrupt Thanksgiving travel across the Midwest and Northeast, officials warn.
According to the National Weather Service Weather Prediction Center, heavy snow will persist into Wednesday across the interior Rockies. Several feet of snow are likely, making mountain passes hazardous.
Thanksgiving Day will bring wet conditions across much of the East, with snow predicted for interior New England. Arctic air will sweep into the Central and Southern U.S. following Thanksgiving, bringing subfreezing temperatures and lake-effect snow to the Great Lakes.
Travelers are urged to plan ahead, as these weather conditions could cause widespread delays. Officials recommend monitoring updated forecasts and using extra caution while traveling through affected areas.
