Transfix Take Podcast | Week of Oct 21: Calm Before the Freight Storm: Regional Trends, Weather Impacts, and Policy Watch

The freight market may look steady, but don’t let that fool you — subtle shifts are already setting the stage for a volatile November. This week on The Transfix Take, Jenni Ruiz and NFI’s Justin Maze break down what’s happening across every region as Q4 heats up. From weather disruptions to policy curveballs, here’s where things stand — and where they’re headed next. In this episode: • Minimal week-over-week rate changes, but Midwest tightening continues • Flatbed activity climbs 5% across the Southeast amid local freight pressure • Coastal and South regions remain soft as the Northeast stays stagnant • Weather watch: storms, snow, and possible tornado activity impacting freight lanes • The latest on federal transportation funding withheld from California — and why it matters Plus, Jenni shares a few shoutouts for FreightTech 25 hopefuls and the Transfix team at F3. Tune in for a full regional breakdown and Maze’s forecast for the final stretch of October. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.
