CLEVELAND — A strong cold front has moved through Northern Ohio and is headed east through Pennsylvania tonight. Much colder air is spilling into the region behind the front. Scattered rain showers will mix with wet snow and then change over to all snow by sunrise on Thursday. I expect a half-inch of snow to fall in most spots tonight with a few areas getting closer to an inch. Wet roads could become icy as temperatures quickly fall back into the upper 20s for lows tonight. Winds will continue to gust between 30 and 40 mph tonight through Thursday.

Grab a coat for Thursday. High temperatures will only climb into the middle 30s during the afternoon. Winds will gust above 30 mph at times, keeping wind chill values in the teens and 20s. Scattered snow is likely during the morning hours. An accumulation below 1 inch is expected. Isolated flurries and light snow showers will continue through the afternoon.

Most of Friday will be dry. Rain mixing with wet snow will arrive by late afternoon. That mix will change over to scattered snow Friday night. Accumulations of a trace to 2-inches can be expected. Highs on Friday should get close to 40 degrees.
