OHIO — A major winter storm continues to impact a large part of Ohio.

Steady snow, heavy at times, will persist across southern and central Ohio through Monday morning and into midday. In northern Ohio, scattered snow showers will move in during the pre-dawn hours of Monday morning.

Snow totals will be most significant north of the Ohio River and south of Interstate 70. Widespread snow totals of 6 to 8 inches are likely, with isolated higher amounts around a foot possible. Additionally, there will be a threat of sleet and freezing rain/drizzle. This will impact some local snowfall totals but pose another threat for travel conditions.

North of I-70, snowfall totals will taper off. However, several inches of accumulation will likely create numerous travel troubles as well.

Northern Ohio’s impacts will be slim, with a coating to perhaps an inch or two creating a few slick spots.

Snow showers will begin to taper off from west to east during the midday hours of Monday. However, travel conditions will be impacted through Monday night and into Tuesday morning due in part to cold temperatures and gusty winds which may create some blowing and drifting concerns.
