White Thanksgiving: Heavy snowfall to hit Midwest, Northeast, endangering holiday drivers
Swaths of the country will get a white Thanksgiving this year as a winter storm moving towards the Northeast is expected to blanket parts of the Midwest and Northeast in snow on Thursday evening, threatening to snarl travel plans after the holiday.
The Thanksgiving Day storm will unleash rain and snow on New Englanders as they sit down to Turkey dinners on Thursday. Parts of New York west of the Hudson Valley and southern Vermont could see the heaviest snowfall, according to the National Weather Service.
Blasts of frigid air moving east could also trigger heavy "lake-effect snowfall" beginning on Thursday evening in areas across the upper Midwest and the Northeast, including Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo, New York, AccuWeather forecasters said.
Marchers in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade wore raincoats and ponchos on Thursday morning as a sheet of chilly rain hit the New York City metro area.
