We are now exactly 1 month away from the beginning of Daylight Saving Time! Does this make you happy? Or does the time change annoy you? #dst #springforward #springcountdown

As of 7:30pm 1/25/25- Montgomery and Dayton metro area now added to the list of LEVEL 3 EMERGENCIES.

Now three of the largest populated counties in Oho are under a Level 3 Emergency. Over half of Ohio’s roads are closed to non-emergency traffic. #ohwx #ohio #snOMG #winterstorm

BREAKINGβ€” A STATE OF EMERGENCY has been declared for the state of Ohio by governor Mike Dewine ahead of our winter storm tonight into tomorrow. Snowfall amounts over a foot will be likely over a large part of the state. More details on Spectrum News 1 and on your Spectrum News App. #ohio #ohwx

This will likely be one of the bigger winter storms we've had in quite some time here in OH. Some areas in parts of central/southern Ohio could get over a foot of snow! Don't underestimate this storm and don't overestimate how well your vehicle would track through it :) More details later tonight!

Check out this view of a snow squall that was moving into Cleveland at around 11am Saturday. These squalls can drop visibility to near zero and create dangerous driving conditions all in a matter of seconds when they move in. (Photo Courtesy: Nick A/Flexjet & Jennifer Brown) #OHwx #Ohio #snOMG

INTENSE SNOW SQUALLS crossed parts of Ohio Wednesday night. These snow squalls can make for dangerous driving conditions from dry roads in a matter of minutes. This is from Clark & Champaign Counties in SW Ohio during a snow squall warning. #OHwx #snOhio #snOMG @nws.noaa.gov (Video: Brian McCrae)

Who's ready for a little snow? Light snow will develop tonight after 10pm across parts of northern and central Ohio where 1-2" could fall. ANOTHER 1-2" of snowfall will be possible with a second system that crosses the state New Year's Eve. #OHwx #snOMG

WEEKEND SNOWFALL FORECAST- Please note when you see ranges, it is just as likely to see the lower number as it is the higher number. There will also be a few spots that may see a bit less snow, and some spots that could get over the forecast amounts. #ohwx #ohio #snOMG

Snow will develop west to east late Saturday with the heaviest snow falling NW of I-71 Saturday night. Several inches of snow will be possible by Sunday morning. The snow will likely mix with and/or change to rain along and south of I-70 on Sunday which will limit snow accums. #OHwx #snOMG

Just 5 days ago some parts of Ohio reached into the 70s! Obviously, we can get some big, quick swings in temperatures this time of year. However- the trough that is in place now is pretty impressive with cold feeding all the way down into northern FL. #OHwx

OH sNOw!! EARLY LOOK AT POTENTIAL SNOWFALL LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK- First of all, we are still a bit early for specifics on snowfall, but since we are heading into the weekend when many may not be paying much attention, I thought I'd give you an early look at where things stand now.

Hurricane Melissa is rapidly re-strengthening tonight - #Melissa is back over open waters on an approach to eastern Cuba and has regained Category 4 strength as of the 11pm (Tuesday) advisory. The storm has a brief window to continue to strengthen before making landfall in Cuba. #HurricaneMelissa

POTENTIALLY POTENT STORM SYSTEM will move into our region this weekend-

With this storm system we could experience gusty winds of 20 to 40mph. There is some potential that winds could gust perhaps to near 50mph. If that occurs, get ready for a lot of leaves to come of the trees! #ohwx

MUCH-NEEDED RAIN fell over the last few days, but will it be enough to put a big dent into the drought? We will get an updated drought report Thurs AM. However, the report will include data over the last week up until Tuesday at 8am. It will not include impacts from rain that feel since that time.

SCARY LOOKING CLOUD LURKS OVER COLUMBUS Sunday evening (Photo courtesy: Brady Harris)- As moisture was increasing on Sunday & storms began to bubble up, this was spotted near Hwy 23 &. Orange Rd at around 5pm. While ominous looking, this SCUD cloud looked scarier than it actually was. #OHwx #Ohio
