Cleveland, OH – Residents across northeast Ohio and neighboring northwest Pennsylvania face another unsettled weekend Saturday, November 14, as lake effect rain and snow showers continue across the region. Some communities could see precipitation chances reaching 90%, with another rain and snow mix possible Saturday night before conditions gradually improve next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Cleveland, early Saturday rain and snow showers will transition mainly to rain as temperatures rise. Localized rainfall totals between half an inch and three quarters of an inch are possible, particularly in areas experiencing persistent lake effect precipitation.
Rain Chances Reach 90% in Some Communities The highest precipitation probabilities Saturday are concentrated across portions of northeast Ohio.
Youngstown faces a 95% precipitation chance early Saturday, decreasing to 90% around midday and 70% by Saturday evening.
Ashtabula could see precipitation probabilities reaching 90% around noon, while Meadville, Pennsylvania, also faces a 90% chance during the afternoon.
Cleveland's precipitation chances range from approximately 55% to 65% throughout much of Saturday.
Communities farther west, including Toledo and Findlay, are expected to remain largely outside the primary lake effect precipitation area.
Rain and Snow Mix Returns Tonight Saturday night could bring another period of mixed rain and snow across affected communities.
The National Weather Service indicates that snow accumulation should remain minor because relatively warm ground and air temperatures will limit accumulation.
Although widespread travel disruptions are not anticipated, motorists could encounter wet roads and localized slick spots where snow briefly develops.
Showers Could Continue Into Sunday Night Sunday, November 15, will bring additional periods of light rain, with some showers potentially lingering into Sunday night.
Precipitation chances should gradually decrease throughout the day, although locations closer to the lake effect precipitation zone may continue experiencing occasional showers.
By Monday, November 16, drier conditions are expected to return as a gradual warming trend develops across northeast Ohio.
Residents planning weekend travel or outdoor activities should monitor updated forecasts, particularly in communities experiencing persistent lake effect showers
