Thanksgiving day travel chaos begins as widespread snow storms force hundreds of flight delays and cancelations

Due to an upcoming winter storm, airports are dealing with a plethora of flight cancellations and delays, causing the anticipated record-breaking Thanksgiving travel day to plunge into pandemonium.

As many as 80 million people are anticipated to board a plane or drive to their vacation destination, causing a massive Thanksgiving traffic surge at airports and on roads across the country.

After more than 5 million individuals passed through airport security on Monday and Tuesday, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is anticipated to screen an additional 2.9 million passengers on Wednesday.

Residents of the East Coast, meanwhile, are preparing for Wednesday and Thanksgiving Day to bring rain, freezing rain, and snow.
