A wintry storm system that has already claimed 13 lives continued to move east on Sunday, making its way through New Mexico and Texas, with the possibility of advancing to the Northeast and hindering holiday travel plans along the way.
The storm, which started in the Southwest on Thursday, could affect a good chunk of the country by the time its westward march comes to an end.
The inconveniently timed storm will especially be a concern for the 43 million people who are expected to travel 50 miles or more for the Thanksgiving holiday, according to AAA. Three million of those are slated to fly to their destinations, AAA predicted.
The “Nordic outbreak” will “produce a mixed bag of wily weather that will end up impacting much of the nation,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Joe Harris, Guardian informs.
