Cleveland, OH – A new round of accumulating snow is on the way for northern Ohio, arriving early Saturday and continuing into Sunday morning, with the heaviest totals expected in the northwest part of the state.
According to the National Weather Service in Cleveland, a widespread system will begin pushing in from the southwest by Saturday morning. Areas like Toledo, Bowling Green, and Findlay are expected to see 4 to 6 inches, with snow intensifying late Saturday afternoon into the evening. Snowfall rates could reach up to 1 inch per hour in localized bands across northern and western counties.
Cities including Fremont, Norwalk, and Sandusky are forecast to receive between 2 and 4 inches, while Cleveland, Akron, and Youngstown are more likely to see 2 to 3 inches. Roads could become snow-covered and slick across much of the region, particularly during the evening commute and overnight hours. Visibility may also drop sharply in heavier bands.
Drivers are urged to plan ahead and avoid unnecessary travel, especially in areas where totals climb above 4 inches. Crews are expected to be out treating roads, but rapidly falling snow may outpace plowing at times.
Snowfall will taper early Sunday morning, but additional alerts may be issued if banding intensifies or system timing shifts.
