The Thanksgiving holiday travel has resulted in nearly 3 million people being screened by TSA on Wednesday. A storm tracking from the Rockies to the Midwest and Northeast is expected to bring rain and snow, impacting flights and roads. Flight delays and cancellations have been reported, including at Newark Liberty International Airport due to a shortage of air traffic controllers. The storm is forecast to intensify in the evening from St. Louis to Pittsburgh and move eastward overnight along the I-95 corridor. Thanksgiving Day is expected to bring heavy rain for the East Coast and heavy snow for the interior Northeast. Bitter cold temperatures are expected in the northern Plains and upper Midwest through Sunday.
Authorities are warning travelers about vehicle thefts at airport parking lots, as over 300 cars were stolen from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport this year. Measures are being implemented to improve security in airport parking lots. Police have arrested a car theft ring targeting airports across multiple states. A woman’s car was stolen from Columbus International Airport and later found abandoned and stripped. She expressed concern about the security of airport parking lots and urged authorities to enhance security measures.
