(Reuters) - Two winter storms lumbering across parts of the United States on Wednesday disrupted the travel plans of millions of Americans who typically jam the country's highways and airports to visit family and friends over the long Thanksgiving weekend.

One of the hardest-hit areas on the day before Thanksgiving Day was Minnesota's Twin Cities region, which was blanketed in white by the same system that clobbered the Denver area a day earlier.
