Attention Midwest Holiday Travelers
A significant winter storm may bring heavy snow, blizzard conditions, dangerous cold and dangerous travel conditions this Thursday-Friday (December 22-23).
If you are traveling on these dates then please begin to be prepared to alter plans.
Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa all may see impacts.
Exact snow amounts and placement are still unknown but the threat is increasing for the Midwest to see a snowstorm.

And here I didn't book Aruba because I thought passport/immigration control workers were threatening to strike here in the U.S. (oh, no, just the UK...so yeah, don't try to flee to the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Montserrat and Turks and Caicos Islands)
