CLEVELAND, Ohio — Dozens of school districts and child care centers across Northeast Ohio are closed Tuesday as a powerful Arctic front brings snow squalls, strong winds and dangerously cold wind chills to the region, with forecasters warning that an even longer stretch of extreme cold could arrive later this week.
The Arctic front moved west to east across northern Ohio Monday, triggering scattered to heavy snow showers and snow squalls that can cause sudden whiteout conditions and quickly coat roads, while wind gusts of up to 45 mph and falling temperatures pushed wind chills as low as minus 15 to minus 20 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
