Bitter Cold, Blast Of Snow To Hit Northern Ohio: Forecast

OHIO — A small blast of snow and bitterly cold temperatures will develop in northern Ohio Friday, the National Weather Service warned.

"Light snow will be slow to exit today, but additional accumulations should be minimal," the agency said on Twitter. Less than an inch of snow will fall across northern Ohio throughout the day, forecasts said.

Snow won't be the only winter weather concern for northern Ohioans. Despite a relative warm-up during the day, with temperatures in the 20s for much of the region, biting cold is expected overnight.

Most of northern Ohio will see overnight lows fall into the single digits. Here are the expected lows for different parts of the region:

• Cleveland — 7 degrees
• Ashtabula — 8 degrees
• Youngstown — 4 degrees
• Canton — 4 degrees
• Akron — 4 degrees
• Mansfield — -1 degrees
• Marion — 0 degrees
• Findlay — -2 degrees
• Toledo — 0 degrees
• Sandusky — 1 degrees

Winds will hit 5 to 9 mph overnight, forecasts said, meaning many communities will have subzero wind chills.
