The first major storm of the season blanketed large parts of the country with snow and ice, making roads hazardous, disrupting travel and closing schools as some areas braced for several inches of heavy snowfall. Many motorists and air travellers experienced significant disruption over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend from another winter storm over the midwest and Great Lakes region, with several large road crashes, hundreds of flights cancelled and thousands more delayed.
