Summary of Expected Impact
- Severe winter storm expected to impact up to 40 U.S. states
- Major disruption risk to trucking routes, logistics hubs, and last-mile delivery
- High probability of transit delays, road closures, and service interruptions
- Extreme cold, snow, ice, and high winds may affect driver safety and equipment
- Shipment schedules and delivery timelines may be subject to change
A large-scale winter storm is forecast to move across much of the United States, creating hazardous conditions that will affect freight movement and delivery reliability nationwide. Weather models indicate heavy snowfall, ice accumulation, and strong winds across critical transportation corridors from the Midwest through the East Coast, including several high-volume freight markets.
As conditions deteriorate, state and local authorities are expected to implement travel restrictions and close portions of major highways. These actions, combined with reduced visibility and extreme cold, may limit carrier capacity and slow both linehaul and local delivery operations. Customers should anticipate longer transit times, potential re-routing, and possible temporary suspensions of service in the most severely affected areas.
