Freezing Rain and Sleet Expected to Disrupt Morning Commutes in Ohio
National Weather Service issues winter weather advisory, with conditions expected to improve by Tuesday afternoon as temperatures rise.
- Freezing rain and sleet are expected to cause icy conditions and slippery roads in Northeast Ohio, Cincinnati, and Columbus, potentially disrupting Tuesday morning commutes.
- The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for much of Ohio, including major counties in the Northeast and Central regions.
- Although only about one-tenth of an inch of ice is expected to accumulate, this is enough to create hazardous road conditions.
- Temperatures are expected to rise to the upper 30s and mid-40s by Tuesday afternoon, turning the freezing rain into all rain.
- Warmer temperatures and daily chances for rain are forecasted for the rest of the week.
