Travel Forecast

Friday

• Possible travel issues: Lake-effect snow bands could be heavy and winds could be strong in parts of the Great Lakes snowbelts from Upper Michigan to western and upstate New York. These could produce major travel problems along small stretches of Interstate 90 from northeast Ohio east of Cleveland to southwest New York and Interstate 81 north of Syracuse, New York. Brisk, cold winds are also expected in the rest of the Midwest. Otherwise, just a few showers, perhaps with a rumble of thunder, are possible in the Florida Peninsula ahead of a cold front.
• P​ossible airport weather delays: None are expected at major hubs.
• Good weather: Much of the rest of the country should be precipitation free.

• P​ossible airport weather delays: Kansas City, St. Louis (if light snow develops)
• Good weather: Much of the rest of the country should be precipitation free.
