Record Holiday Travel Meets Powerful West Coast Storm

A record number of Americans are traveling for the winter holidays. But those in California face a severe weather disruption. Major storms are hitting the state with heavy rain, mountain snow, and strong winds. This dangerous combination is creating difficult travel conditions on roads and in the skies. The timing is particularly problematic. AAA, a major travel organization, predicted this holiday season would see the highest number of travelers ever. At Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), CBS News reported on the unfolding travel challenges. Flight delays and cancellations are expected as the storm moves through the region. Travelers are advised to check their flight status and road conditions before departing.
