Nov. 28 (UPI) -- Thousands of flights have been delayed, and hundreds canceled, due to inclement weather overnight on Wednesday, as tens of millions of Americans are expected to travel this Thanksgiving weekend.

Some 18.3 million people are expected to be screened by Transportation Security Administration agents nationwide Tuesday through Monday, making it "the busiest Thanksgiving travel period on record," the federal agency said in a statement.
