Winter Weather Advisory!
Posted by ns62590 on February 25, 2008
The National Weather Service in Cleveland has issued a winter weather advisory for Mahoning and Stark Counties from 4am Tuesday through 4am Wednesday. A winter storm warning is in effect for Portage and Trumbull counties for the same time.
The storm that I have been predicting for the past week will be arriving tonight and last all day tomorrow and into Wednesday. There are still some minor discrepancies as to the certain precipitation type, but it appears that places in Mahoning and Stark counties will see some plain rain Tuesday morning, while it should stay cold enough across the rest of the area for just snow or freezing rain. Trumbull county can expect up to 8 inches of snow by Wednesday, while Mahoning County can expect about 4 or 5. Still, the storm will start out as a mix of rain and snow, so the morning drive to work and school may be a little sloppy, but more wintry for the drive home.
Stay tuned to NOAA weather radio, WeatherWATCH, and your local TV news media for the latest on yet another winter blast. Use extra caution while driving, and give yourself plenty of time and space. Stay safe and have a good night.
