A powerful winter storm is set to blast portions of the U.S. with heavy snow, frigid temperatures, strong winds and rain just as millions of people across the country get set to travel for Thanksgiving.
as brutal weather threatens the country — and millions of Americans’ travel plans — just in time for the start of Thanksgiving week.
Parts of New York and New Jersey may get hit by a winter storm just ahead of Thanksgiving holiday travel.The lingering effect from Mother Nature’s mayhem could wreak havoc on residents’ travel plans at the start of the holiday week, experts said. Forecasters are also keeping an eye on a newly forming pressure system south of New York City, which as it develops, could further cause high winds and increased rain.One bit of bright news from the weather mess is that the incoming rain would help ease the dangerous fire conditions currently across New York and New Jersey, as increased humidity, high rain and no lightning all lower the risk for wildfire conditions, Braud said.
The storm is preceded by a severe weather event in the southern and central plains, which has the potential to bring on tornadoes and flooding early this week.Though much of the country will not get cold enough for snow, the low-pressure system is likely to bring a massive cool-down across toward the middle and end of the week.
