Winter weather could disrupt holiday travel for millions this Christmas
Winter storms are expected to disrupt holiday travel for millions this Christmas. While no major storms are forecast, rain and winter weather could slow travel, especially in the eastern U.S. Nearly 120 million people are expected to travel, a record for the season. The Northeast experienced significant snowfall over the weekend, with some areas receiving up to 6 inches. Another system is expected to bring light to moderate snow on Christmas Eve, affecting travel conditions. Winter weather advisories are in place from Wisconsin to Maine. The West Coast will see rounds of rain and mountain snow, with potential flash flooding in Northern California and coastal Oregon. A developing storm system may bring thunderstorms and heavy rain to the South. A warm-up is expected after Christmas, with temperatures rising significantly across much of the U.S.
