4 Inches Of Snow Possible Friday In Northeast Ohio

CLEVELAND — Up to 4 inches of snow could fall in Northeast Ohio on Friday. Another inch of snow is possible overnight, the National Weather Service warned.

In a winter weather advisory, the agency said 4 inches of snow could fall in Cuyahoga, Lake, Geauga and Ashtabula counties on Friday. That snowfall could make both the morning and evening commutes hazardous.

Drivers are being asked to use caution when heading onto roadways on Friday. With ice already lurking beneath the snow, conditions are fraught for most travelers.

Snow showers could continue into Saturday morning, though only 1 inch of snow is expected to fall in the a.m. There is currently a 20 percent chance of snow on Saturday evening. Sunday could see a mixture of rain and snow, but less than .5 inches of snow are likely to accumulate.

The weather should start to improve on Monday, when forecasts show clear skies arriving in Northeast Ohio.
