More than 4,300 flights were delayed and canceled at airports across the U.S. on Wednesday as a coast-to-coast winter storm affecting most of the northern half of the country continued to track east from Washington toward New England.

. Those numbers account for flights originally scheduled to move within, into or out of the U.S.

Other U.S.-based airlines, including United, American Airlines and Alaska Airlines, were reporting fewer cancellations — between 40 and 45 each, roughly — but logging mounting delays. According to FlightAware, 288 American Airlines flights were delayed on Wednesday afternoon, as were 354 flights operated by United. Wednesday's delays and cancellations were mainly concentrated at a handful of western and midwestern airports, consistent with the path of this week's winter storm.

With potentially dangerous winter weather on the way, it’s important to prepare and be ready ahead of time to keep yourself, your family, and your neighbors safe. The State of Michigan is watching conditions as they develop and taking action to prepare for winter weather impacts.

In a bulletin issued ahead of the storm, the National Weather Service warned that the weather system would"bring numerous weather hazards and significant anomalous temperatures" stretching from Washington to Maine through Thursday. Particularly severe conditions were forecast for some midwestern states, like Minnesota, where Minneapolis remained on track Wednesday to see its second-biggest snowfall of all time.
