Thousands of flights canceled as winter storm marches across US
AI Summary
A major winter storm sweeping across the eastern US has led to widespread flight cancellations and delays, impacting travelers at major airports like those in New York, Chicago, and Atlanta. As of Monday afternoon, over 4,700 flights were canceled and more than 9,000 delayed. The storm, which brought heavy snow to the Midwest and high winds to the East Coast, also carries a risk of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. The FAA ordered ground stops at several airports due to the severe weather. The situation is further complicated by the partial government shutdown, which has left TSA workers without pay, potentially contributing to longer security lines at some airports. Over 200 million people are expected to be impacted by the storm.
