Cleveland, OH – An arctic blast will grip northern Ohio beginning late Monday, with dangerously cold wind chills expected to persist into Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) Cleveland office.
Forecasters say temperatures will drop into the single digits Monday night, while wind chills could plunge as low as -15°F across the region. A Cold Weather Advisory has been issued for multiple counties across northern and central Ohio.
According to NWS officials, the advisory begins 1 p.m. Monday for western areas and 7 p.m. Monday for eastern counties, lasting until noon Tuesday. The combination of strong winds and frigid temperatures could make outdoor exposure unsafe.
Health officials urge residents to limit time outdoors, wear layered clothing, and check on elderly neighbors and pets. Frostbite and hypothermia can occur in minutes under these conditions.
Drivers are also advised to keep winter emergency kits in vehicles as the cold front moves through overnight.
