‘Trending warmer’: Snow flurries this weekend could be the last for Ohioans for a while

The weekend will start with rain and heavy fog and will transition to temperatures around freezing with a strong chance of snow.

Residents in the northern half of Ohio will see dense fog throughout Friday night into Saturday morning, the National Weather Service predicts.

The fog will be followed by rain showers mixed with some snow Saturday afternoon, according to Brian Mitchell, a meteorologist who works in the weather service’s Cleveland office.

“We should stay warm enough for mostly rain Saturday,” Mitchell said. “There’s a window in there late Saturday night through Sunday night it could get close to freezing.”

Is it going to snow Saturday or Sunday?

The chance of precipitation on Saturday across North Central Ohio is 100%.

The day’s high is forecast at 43, meaning it will be mostly rain, and the few flurries that do fall won’t stick.

Overnight into Sunday morning, the temperature will fall to about 32.

How much snow might fall while the low is at or below the freezing point is hard to say.
