Thanksgiving Travel Threatened by Nationwide Winter Storms

Thanksgiving travel in 2024 is expected to be challenging due to adverse weather conditions, including heavy rain and snow across various parts of the U.S. An atmospheric river event is predicted to hit central California, while snow could disrupt flights at major airports like Denver. The TSA anticipates record travel volumes, with 18.3 million people expected to fly during the holiday period. Low gas prices may encourage more road travel, despite potential snow in the Sierra Nevadas, Great Lakes, and Northeast. Windy conditions could also impact Thanksgiving parades in the Northeast.
