More Snow Headed To Northern Ohio? Dusting Possible: Forecast
With temperature set to fall below freezing for much of the week, don't expect to see grass any time soon.
CLEVELAND — Northern Ohioans spent Monday and Tuesday tunneling out of driveways and digging their cars out of piles of snow. Could even more snow be on the way?
There's a slim chance of snow on Wednesday and Thursday, according to the National Weather Service. Luckily, little to no accumulation is expected if flakes do fall.
The coming drop in temperatures may be more concerning for northern Ohioans. Current forecasts show the possibility of single-digit lows on Thursday and Friday, the National Weather Service said. That could lead to icy roads and thicker clumps of snow in parking lots and on sidewalks and driveways.

It also means the snow on the ground is unlikely to melt any time soon.
Still Recovering From Monday
Between Sunday night and Monday afternoon, many northern Ohio communities received between 1 and 2 feet of snow. The winter storm was so severe that the Greater Cleveland RTA suspended both bus and rail service. At one point, 50 RTA buses were stuck on snowy streets. Many northern Ohio communities also issued parking bans and declared snow emergencies.

RTA service was restored on Tuesday morning. Unfortunately, many northern Ohio communities continued to play catch-up Tuesday clearing snow from streets. With temperatures falling to below freezing this week, it's likely the snow that fell Monday will stick around for a while, the National Weather Service said on Twitter.
Lake effect snow continued off-and-on through early Tuesday but tapered off in the early afternoon.
