Thanksgiving travel plans for millions in the Northeast are at risk from a storm which could dump snow on clogged freeways and busy airports at a rate of an inch an hour.
Forecasters said a nor’easter brewing over the Atlantic is likely to sweep up the East Coast during Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing a mixture of snow and freezing rain.
Some forecasts said as much as eight inches of snow could hit New York City in a single day, however it is likely to be between three and five inches.
Transport experts told people to change plans to leave Wednesday. The AAA recommended that the 41 million road travelers due to drive over Thanksgiving choose to either leave today or wait until Thursday in order to dodge the storm.
