ALERTS: A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for several Northeast Ohio counties.
The following areas will be under this advisory from 10 a.m. Sunday to 10 a.m. Monday:
- Ashtabula County
- Cuyahoga County
- Geauga County
- Lake County
The following counties are under this advisory until 4 a.m. Monday:
- Portage County
- Summit County
TIMING: Snow showers are starting to increase Sunday morning and will become more organized this afternoon. Snow will continue into tonight, but it looks to fade for many on MLK Day. Lake effect snow will linger the longest in our northeastern communities but should lift out across the lake by the afternoon. Scroll through the images of Futurecast to get an idea about the timing and coverage of snow (spoiler alert it is not only going to snow in the Snowbelt!)
SNOWFALL TOTALS: During this time, snow accumulations between two and five inches are possible, with isolated spots getting closer to six inches. In Cuyahoga County, the greatest accumulations will be across the eastern half of the county, with amounts decreasing to one to three inches across the county's western half. Elsewhere, across NEO, less than two inches of snow should be expected.
IMPACTS: Under this advisory, plan for slippery road conditions and slower travel. Hazardous conditions could impact Monday's morning commute.
Additionally, the National Weather Service in Cleveland and Pittsburgh have issued a cold weather advisory for Sunday night through Wednesday for the entire viewing area due to the threat of dangerously cold temperatures that will last for several days.
