The Nation : Fog, Snow Hamper Travel

Holiday travelers in the upper Great Lakes area battled blizzard conditions and frustrated fliers in Seattle were fogged in for an eighth day, but cloud seeding cleared skies over Reno and planes resumed flying. The Reno-Cannon, Nev., International Airport had been fogged in since Saturday with about 2,000 travelers stranded. Frigid arctic air continued to spill out of Canada into the northern and central Plains, pushing temperatures well below zero and sending wind chills down to more than 70 below zero. Heavy snow swept Michigan’s Upper Peninsula along the Lake Superior shore, where 12 to 18 inches of snow was expected overnight.
