Heading into the weekend, truckers will have to battle areas of heavy snowfall and gusty winds in portions of the Midwest-Great Lakes. This snowstorm will likely cause some disruptions to ground and air transportation in several states but won’t shut down supply chains for any extended period of time.
The timing of this storm is still Friday night through early Sunday morning. This does not look to be a major disruptive event with widespread road closures, power outages, etc., but rather a...
Weekend truckers may have to battle areas of heavy snowfall and gusty winds from the Plains to the Great Lakes. This snowstorm will likely cause some disruptions to ground and air transportation in portions of several states.
The timing of this storm will probably be Friday night through early Sunday morning. This does not look to be a major disruptive event with widespread road closures, power outages, etc., but rather a period of minor to moderate supply chain slowdowns for one to two days....
Weekend truckers will have to battle a nor’easter in many New England markets, with some areas getting more than 12 inches of snowfall.
The heaviest snowfall still looks to be outside of the major population centers along the Interstate 95 corridor, mainly affecting local and regional supply chains in low-volume freight markets. Parts of downtown Boston could see minor accumulations, with higher amounts north and west of the city. However, if the track were to shift farther east of the current...
Truckers will face heavy snowfall and high winds across portions of the Plains through Wednesday night.
A fairly slow-moving low-pressure system is pulling cold air into northern Texas, northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas, along with moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, steady snowfall will develop in these areas Wednesday, probably lasting through the night. In some areas it may start as rain or a rain-snow mix before changing to all snow.
The heaviest snowfall will impact drivers...
