A storm blamed for at least eight deaths in the West is bringing freezing rain and sleet to parts of Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas as it continues making its way through the Southwest before moving east ahead of Thanksgiving.

Meteorologists said they expected the Arctic mass to head south and east and threaten plans for Tuesday and Wednesday as people hit the roads and airports for some of the busiest travel days of the year. The storm will dump icy weather on parts of the Midwest and most of the South before affecting nearly all of the East Coast on Wednesday.

The storm system, though, was particularly hard to predict because a couple of degrees here or there with the temperature will determine whether regions see rain, sleet or snow, Bradshaw said.
