Winter Weather Advisories for Lake, Geauga & Ashtabula Counties from early Tuesday morning through part of the day on Wednesday. Lake effect snow could deposit an additional 3 to 5 inches across parts of the Advisory area through Wednesday.
Its going to be a cold night tonight. Low temps will dip into the single digits away from Lake Erie, teens lakeside. Wind chills could be below zero at times. Skies will start off clear with scattered clouds moving in after midnight.
Tuesday stays cold as the core of the latest Arctic Intrustion settles in. We'll expect high temperatures to climb only into the middle and upper teens during the day. A weak trough sliding thru will stir up scattered snow for midday area-wide. Accumulations of a trace to 2 inches can be expected Tuesday with a bit more possible in the Winter Weather Advisory area. Layers are key, along with hats and gloves.
Winds shift late week, warming temps above freezing but fueling a potential weekend snow. If we can stay cold enough, accumulations are again possible. But its too early now to give exact numbers. If we're too warm then rain will cut snow totals quite a bit. We're watching it closely!
