Major travel disruptions across north of United States amid heavy snowfall​

22 hours ago​


More than 1,000 flights have been cancelled or delayed across the Northeast and Great Lakes regions of the United States due to snow during the busy travel period between Christmas and the new year.

New York City received about 10 centimetres of snow Friday night into early Saturday, local time.

At least 1,500 flights were cancelled from Friday night, according to flight-tracking service FlightAware. But by the morning, both the roads and the skies were clearing.

"The storm is definitely winding down, a little bit of flurries across the Northeast this morning," Bob Oravec, a Maryland-based forecaster at the National Weather Service, said.

Mr Oravec said the storm was moving from the north-west toward the south-east, with the largest snowfall in the New York City area reaching over 15cm in central eastern Long Island. Further north in the Catskills, communities saw as much as 25cm of snow.

Newark Liberty International, John F Kennedy International and LaGuardia airports posted snow warnings on the social media platform X on Friday, saying weather conditions could cause flight disruptions.

'Very unexpected'​

In Times Square, workers in red jumpsuits worked to clear the sludge and powder-coated streets and sidewalks using shovels and snow blowers.

Jennifer Yokley, who was there on a holiday trip from North Carolina, said she was excited to see snow accumulating as it dusted buildings, trees and signs throughout the city.

"I think it was absolutely beautiful," she said.

Payton Baker and Kolby Gray, who were visiting from West Virginia, said the snow was a Christmas surprise for their third anniversary trip.

"Well, it's very cold, and it was very unexpected," Ms Baker said.

"The city is working pretty well to get all the roads salted and everything, so it's all right."

Ahead of the storm, New York Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency for more than half the state.

Acting New Jersey Governor Tahesha Way also declared a state of emergency for that state.

"This storm will cause dangerous road conditions and impact holiday travel," Ms Way said in a statement.

"We are urging travellers to avoid travel during the storm and allow crews to tend to the roads."

Yesterday, the radio said Alaska was averaging 40 degrees, it was -5 here at the time! I don't like the heat, but this is CRAZY COLD!

How frozen are you guys???
I’m in Kingsville, MO and we are currently 23 degrees with a real feel of 9 degrees. We also are under a wind advisory for up to 40 mph winds and did have some flurries today. I’m over the cold bring in spring and summer.
 
What a roller coaster this past couple years have been with the weather, it seems anything goes.



That's just so not normal - must be hard on the wildlife that rely upon cooler weather this time of year.



Would these temperatures be considered normal for over there this time of year? I imagine it is also very humid (weather I like!), how do the chooks handle that heat and such?



Hopefully it arrives with no extreme wind or other weather events - I wish I could send you some of my cold weather :)
Yeah, it's hard on my pheasants, we get a cold spell then it warms back up and my birds think it's spring and start displaying.

29C (68F) here at 2.39PM - but as you will see below - our Christmas eve temp won us the hottest town on earth vote.

😡🤬🥵

"The scorching heat also led to WA being crowned the hottest place on Earth — with the 15 hottest towns on the planet this Christmas all located in the State.

Geraldton won the title of the hottest town on Earth this Christmas, as the Mid West city reached a scorching 44C.

Roebourne, Bullsbrook, Lancelin, and Marble Bar also landed spots in the top five hottest destinations, with temperatures reaching between 41.8C and 42.4C.

Other WA towns such as Telfer, Gingin, Kariini and Cunderdin also made the global list with temperatures nearing 41C."
