new jersey and it's smooth sailing at this point but don't let this deceive you. there are expected to be 39 million americans hitting the road for this holiday season, and this is the busiest travel day of the year, in fact, there have been some accidents this morning, we've passed some stents and also we've learned that the westbound lane on i-76 in philadelphia is closed due to an accident there, where one person was killed and there's only one lane open on the other side, due to flooding there. so we're seeing these issues all over, carol, and it's expected to get worse. the rain is expected to pick up, later this morning, and that's when a lot of people will likely hit the road, so people need to really just exercise patience. it's pretty miserable traveling the day before thanksgiving and the weather is just compounding the situation. carol? >> all right, we'll be careful. thanks, pamela. the storm is moving slowly across the country, very slowly. many of us will feel its full effects later on today. cnn meteorologist jennifer gray
