Excerpt:

Around 43. 6 million Americans were projected to travel 50 miles or more between Wednesday and Sunday, just a 0. 7 percent increase from last year, according to AAA's yearly Thanksgiving travel analysis. The slight bump in numbers meant traffic started to build early on many major roadways in New Jersey as travelers head out to their Thanksgiving Day destinations. Travel conditions were expected to worsen as the evening progressed and more drivers took to the road. Authorities were reporting high volume along stretches of the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway as the Wednesday evening commute got under way, but no major problems were occurring. On the West coast, weather led to some potentially dangerous conditions. Oregon's Department of Transportation issued a traffic advisory for the four-day Thanksgiving weekend because of wet roads and the chance for snow and ice in the mountain passes.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
