CLEVELAND — A weak storm system will roll across Northeast Ohio on Tuesday and bring with it the possibility of flurries this evening.
Chief Meteorologist Mark Johnson breaks down the advisory below:
Scattered snow could start coming down after sunset, with an inch of accumulation possible in most areas. Some other locations could get hit a bit harder and see several inches of coverage, according to News 5 meteorologists.
Tonight's #snow looks to be a lot like Sunday night's snow. A general inch or so for most. Lingering lake effect into Monday morning bumps totals up another inch or two in the snowbelt. #Cleveland #Weather pic.twitter.com/MMALtSEJnv
