One thing that rings true for everyone out there, and it's a great idea if you can leave early, go ahead and do so. From Logan jimmychatably vs Boston's News radio.
Checking flight aware right now. So far today Boston Logan has seen sixty flight delays, no canceled flights so far. Travelers at Logan just some of the millions of people expected to take flight for the holiday. TSA spokesperson Lisa Farbstein tells ABC passengers should always double check what Thanksgiving leftovers they can and cannot put in their carry on that.
You can spill it, spread it, spread it, pump it, or pour it, then it should go into a check bag. So, for example, cranberry sauces is spreadable, whether you're buying it in a can, whether it's in a jar, whether it's hell made gravy. Course, of course, it's spellable, it's spreadable, and so that should go into a check bag.
I'm going to bet you.
We will see a raw turkey or two. That's fine because they're solid cast roles like mac and cheese, stuffing those traditional green beans with theo's onions, straws, stuff like that. We consider cast roles to be solids, so you can carry those through a checkpoint as well.

On Thanksgiving, we're going to see widespread rain in the area. That's in the morning, then continuing through the afternoon. Then it will taperr off during the evening. But if you're north or west of four ninety five or traveling in those areas, beware there could be some wet snow. We're talking possibly a coding to an inch or two in parts of the Worcester Hills and south central New Hampshire. Highs near forty five. For the rest of us in that area north and west of four ninety five will
