New York and New Jersey are grappling with a major winter storm that slammed the Tri-State area yesterday (December 26), triggering a state of emergency and chaos for travelers. Over 1,500 flights were canceled at Philadelphia International and New York City’s JFK, Newark, and LaGuardia airports, leaving thousands stranded during the busy post-Christmas rush. ❄️🚗
Governors in both states urged residents to avoid non-essential travel as heavy snowfall and icy conditions paralyzed roads. The storm’s timing couldn’t be worse—many families are still trying to return home after holiday gatherings. Social media is flooded with videos of snowdrifts piling up faster than TikTok trends! 📱❄️
Meteorologists warn that the system could linger into the weekend, with subzero temperatures expected across the Northeast. Travelers are advised to check flight statuses and pack extra patience (and hand warmers!). Stay tuned for updates as crews work around the clock to clear runways and highways. 🚧👷
