Wilmington, OH – Light snow is set to move through central Ohio late tonight, creating potentially hazardous road conditions for the Thursday morning commute. Drivers on I-70 and surrounding highways should prepare for reduced visibility and icy patches.
According to the National Weather Service, snowfall will begin after midnight, with accumulations of less than an inch in most areas. Heavier snow could reach up to two inches in localized spots. Wind gusts may exacerbate visibility issues, particularly during the early morning hours.
