It may be hard to believe after multiple 70 and 80-degree days this week, but a hard freeze is likely for most of the News 5 viewing area, with another hard freeze expected Monday night.

The National Weather Service has issued a Freeze Warning for these counties on Sunday night. The following counties will be under this warning from 11 p.m. on Sunday until 11 a.m. on Monday:

  • Ashland
  • Ashtabula
  • Cuyahoga
  • Erie
  • Geauga
  • Holmes
  • Huron
  • Lake
  • Lorain
  • Medina
  • Portage
  • Richland
  • Stark
  • Summit
  • Tuscarawas
  • Wayne

These areas are also under a Freeze Watch from Monday at 8 p.m. until Tuesday at 10 a.m.

Temperatures dropped from the 40s on Sunday afternoon to near freezing by Monday morning.

Some light lake-effect snow is also possible Sunday night through Monday morning, as this wintry weather pattern will persist through Tuesday. It will likely be even colder Monday night, with a hard freeze possible for Cleveland itself.
