Winter Storm Cato made its way through the Eastern U.S., dumping a
wintry mix of snow and rain as it rushed up the Eastern Seaboard. At
least 400,000 customers were without power Thanksgiving morning, and
countless accidents slowed travel for drivers the day before the
holiday.
Over a foot of snow fell in parts of the mid-Atlantic
region, and Cato dumped high snow totals in parts of New England as
well. All that wintry precipitation made for slick, treacherous roads
for the estimated 41.3 million people traveling for the Thanksgiving
holiday, according to AAA estimates.
As for air travel,
there were more than 4,700 cancelations and 700 delays at airports across the U.S. Wednesday, according to FlightAware.
