Time to bundle up.
Clevelanders can expect a few inches of snow, winds coming in from the lake and more on Monday (February 1) and into Tuesday (February 2).
The National Weather Service forecast has many Northeast Ohio counties, including Cuyahoga, under a hazardous weather outlook as of Monday morning.
“Additional light snow is expected through this evening,” the National Weather Service reads. “Much of the area can expect amounts ranging from a light coating up to 2 inches.
Locally higher amounts can be expected downwind of Lake Erie in Erie, Huron, and Lorain counties where locally higher amounts of 2 to 3 inches are possible through tonight.”

The advisory will remain in effect until Tuesday at 6 a.m.
People can expect “additional accumulation 1 to 3 inches. Locally higher amounts are possible near the ridges of western Pennsylvania…Snow- and ice-covered roads will make travel difficult.”
