US airlines cancel over 2,000 flights as storm disruption continues
U.S. airlines canceled more than 2,000 flights on Tuesday as a powerful winter storm disrupted airports across the Northeast. Cancellations were expected to drop as the storm eased by evening, though strong winds were forecast to continue into the early hours.
Airports faced travel chaos with widespread delays and disruptions affecting travelers nationwide. Officials urged passengers to check flight statuses and prepare for potential further changes.
The weather system prompted widespread advisories, but authorities anticipated improving conditions later in the day, allowing operations to gradually resume normal schedules.
