WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 -- As Thanksgiving holiday approaches this week in the United States, a developing storm system is predicted to bring winter weather from Appalachians to New England on Tuesday, affecting travelers in this busy holiday season.
According to the National Weather Service, heavy snow is possible on Tuesday from the Tennessee Valley to western New England, with freezing rain possible across the Appalachians and western Mid-Atlantic into the Northeast. Meanwhile, heavy rainfall is forecast across parts of the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, with severe thunderstorms possible for parts of Florida and the coastal Southeast.
The wintry weather has already left more than 100 wrecks in highways across the country and claimed at least 12 lives, according to U.S. media reports, and some delays are anticipated at airports along the path of the storm, especially after snow and freezing rain move into New England Tuesday night, increasing the chances of cancellations and delays.
However, according to the Federal Aviation Administration, there were no significant delays at airports as of Tuesday morning across the country.
Wintry weather is also expected to impact road travel, as AAA projects that 38.9 million Americans will travel 50 miles (80 kilometers) or more by road from home this holiday.
