This is a busy travel day. Lines were long at the Tulsa international airport this morning as people jet away for the holiday. Sunday and Monday are also expected to be busy as people head back home.

Thanksgiving travelers got help from favorable weather in most of the U.S.,  but flight delays piled up at airports around the country.

Wet and frigid forecasts threaten to made driving more challenging in the next day or two.

Fewer than 180 U.S. flights had been canceled — a low number, all things considered. But more than 3,500 flights were delayed, according to tracking service FlightAware.
