Winter's First Blast: Northeast Ohio Braces for Big Snow

Hey, Northeast Ohio! Buckle up; the first major snowstorm of the season is barreling towards us. Lake, Ashtabula, and Geauga counties should brace for a lot of snow. Meteorologists are warning about heavy snowfall, with some areas potentially getting up to 20 inches. This could make driving tricky, especially on I-90 in Lake and Ashtabula counties.

Pictures from Mentor show US Route 2 covered in snow, and drivers in Willowick are describing a 'whiteout' situation. It's a good idea to stay indoors if you can and avoid unnecessary travel. Some cities have even put parking bans in place to help with snow removal. Power outages could also happen, so be ready for that. Keep an eye on our traffic map for any road closures or delays due to the storm. If you've got pictures or videos of the snow, share them with us safely. We'd love to see how it's affecting your town. Stay warm and stay safe, folks!
