00:00 Other red lights concerning snow.

00:01 That's mostly our morning commute.

00:03 Bangor, Maine and dealing with

00:04 a few inches of snow at all.

00:06 End up totaling 3 to 6 inches as we

00:08 head through the overnight hours

00:10 into tomorrow morning. Bismarck.

00:11 You're getting in on some of that snow

00:13 one to two inches throughout the day,

00:15 but it does start off a little breezy

00:17 and we still have the wind too to be

00:19 concerned with in the state of Maine as

00:22 they pick up more snow there in Caribou.

00:24 So those are red lights.

00:25 You can see some of those showers,

00:27 thunderstorms really driving their

00:28 way through the state of Texas,

00:30 Oklahoma, and that's where we'll

00:31 have some of those minor delays.

00:32 Northern tier the nation.

00:34 It's a bit of a mixed bag for Seattle.

00:36 It's a couple of showers out

00:37 there to start off the day.

00:39 Same thing for Portland,

00:40 so we will deal with those minor delays.

00:42 Helena also dealing with some rain showers.

00:44 I don't think it's too much in the way of delays,

00:47 but know that those streets

00:48 could get wet at times.

00:49 Meanwhile, off towards the east,

00:51 Bismarck major snow coming down at some point.

00:53 We're going to get a few inches and that

00:55 can be enough to reduce visibilities

00:57 pretty quickly,

00:57 but we're going to have some

00:59 minor delays there.

00:59 Minneapolis.

01:00 It's much later in the setup for the day,

01:02 so I think a lot of the daytime hours fine,

01:04 but we will have that snow going into the evening.

01:07 Meanwhile, farther South,

01:08 we've got showers and thunderstorms.

01:09 Houston,

01:10 like I said,

01:10 a major delay elsewhere.

01:11 We at least have enough wet weather

01:13 to create some minor delays and

01:15 into the Northeast are major concerns,

01:16 mostly through the state of Maine.

01:18 Boston minor delays all due to the winds,

01:20 which are still going to be pretty strong.

01:22 Bangor, Maine.

01:23 It's 3 to 6 inches according to

01:25 your Accuweather wintercast.

01:26 You can find this anytime on the

01:27 Accuweather app or on Accuweather.com

01:29 and it gives you an idea of where

01:31 you're going to fall towards that range,

01:33 which is pretty solidly at 3 to 6 range.

01:35 Maybe a little closer to the 6 inch line.

01:38 As you say,

01:38 the over unders there and the

01:40 probabilities that come,

01:41 but for flight cancellations,

01:43 they're a bit higher,

01:44 all due to the stormy weather that

01:46 is forming throughout the South

01:47 and into the East this the upcoming days.
