According to USA Today, "[a]irlines have preemptively canceled more than 725 flights for Monday and another 815 for Tuesday as a late-season snowstorm threatened to make a mess of air travel this week."
"Unfortunately for fliers, those tallies were likely to soar," the newspaper reported, adding that "Southwest said it expected to ground nearly all of its flights in the Northeast on Tuesday."
The Northeast has experienced a relatively mild winter, with warm temperatures and just a few big snowstorms. But the season is now set to end with some challenging weather for travelers.
