Ashtabula, OH – A Winter Storm Watch was issued by the National Weather Service (NWS) for parts of Ohio and Pennsylvania on Wednesday afternoon and will last until Friday morning. This means that people there should get ready for a lot of snow.
The report says that heavy lake-effect snow could fall, and that it could accumulate between 6 and 12 inches. It could get windy up to 35 mph, which would make driving dangerous, especially along and north of Interstate 90.
The NWS says that Ashtabula Lakeshore County in Ohio and Northern and Southern Erie Counties in Pennsylvania will get the most snow. Commuters are expected to have trouble getting to work on Wednesday evening and Thursday morning because of the storm.
People in the area are being asked to keep an eye on the weather and take proper precautions. Stocking up on essentials and making sure cars are ready for winter driving conditions are two things that can be done to get ready for possible disruptions.
Check for information from the National Weather Service and your local government to stay up to date on the weather.
