Travel Problems Over The Next Few Days
Apart from a quick-moving system that will bring snowfall to the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes through Thursday, the weather will be much calmer for the rest of this week. A few minor delays could be seen in Chicago, Milwaukee or Indianapolis.
A few delays may be possible in Seattle due to persistent raininess there.
By Friday, a few days may also be possible for those flying out of or into the Northeast late in the day as one of those clippers moves through the region.
Keep in mind that temperatures will feel more like May or June across the Western and Central U.S. at times this week. Instead of planning for spring break, take clothes you might use in early summer.
