Snow Is Coming, Late-Winter Storm Headed To Northern OH: Forecast

OHIO — Forget those dreams of early spring because more snow appears to be on the way.

Current forecasts are predicting up to 4 inches of snow could fall between Friday night and early Saturday. Precipitation could start as rain and turn to snow as the night wears on, the National Weather Service said.

The late-winter storm will be driven by a "low-pressure system," the agency added in a hazardous weather outlook statement.

As the snow moves in, expect temperatures to drop precipitously. Friday's daytime high will be approximately 45 degrees, but the overnight low will plunge to 23 degrees. Temperatures will remain frigid throughout the weekend. Details on the whole weekend forecast are below.
