  • Wind chills could reach -27 in NE Ohio, National Weather Service warns


    CLEVELAND, Ohio — The weather conditions expected today and Wednesday in Northeast Ohio are at a dangerous level, according to the National Weather Service.

    High temperatures today will be around 10 degrees in the Cleveland area and wind chills could make it feel as cold as 14 below zero. Overnight lows will approach minus-10 and the wind will make it feel as cold as minus-24 in Cleveland and minus-27 in other areas, forecasters say.

    Although Wednesday’s high could reach 14 degrees, stronger winds will make it feel as cold as minus-24.

    It’s resulted in the NWS issuing a cold weather advisory for most of northern Ohio, including Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, Medina, Portage and Trumbull counties. The advisory is expected to remain in effect until 7 p.m. today.

    An extreme cold warning begins at 7 p.m. today and continues until 10 a.m. Wednesday.

    The Weather Service warns that wind chills around 25 below zero can cause frostbite on exposed skin in as little as 30 minutes. Concern about exposure has led to dozens of school districts in Northeast Ohio canceling classes for both today and Wednesday.

    Cleveland City Hall is closed today, but there will be warming centers open throughout the city: Michael Zone Recreation Center (West Side), 6301 Lorain Ave.; Lonnie Burten Recreation Center, 2511 East 46th St.; Zelma George Recreation Center, 3155 Martin Luther King Blvd.; Collinwood Recreation Center, 16300 Lakeshore Blvd.

    Cuyahoga County offices will be open today, according to a news release. No decision has been made on Wednesday.

    In Akron, the Summit Lake Community Center, 380 W. Crosier St., will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. today and Wednesday to offer shelter from the cold, the city announced.

    Forecasters advise residents to dress in layers if going outside, including a hat, face mask, and gloves. Wrapping or draining pipes, or allowing water to drip slowly can prevent ruptured pipes. Residents also are advised to keep pets indoors.

    The Weather Service also urges caution using portable heaters and says grills or generators should not be used indoors.



    As the winter weather continues to grip Northeast Ohio, the National Weather Service is warning residents to prepare for dangerously cold wind chills that could reach as low as -27 degrees.

    The bitter cold temperatures are expected to move into the region over the next few days, with wind chills dropping to dangerous levels on Wednesday and Thursday. This extreme cold can pose a serious risk of frostbite and hypothermia for those who are not properly dressed or exposed to the elements for an extended period of time.

    It is important for residents to take precautions to stay safe during this frigid weather. This includes dressing in layers, covering exposed skin, and limiting time outdoors. It is also important to check on elderly neighbors and family members who may be more vulnerable to the cold.

    If you must venture outside, make sure to wear hats, gloves, scarves, and insulated clothing to protect yourself from the harsh wind chills. It is also recommended to keep emergency supplies, such as blankets, water, and non-perishable food, in your car in case you become stranded.

    Stay informed by monitoring local weather forecasts and advisories, and take the necessary steps to stay safe during this extreme cold snap. Let’s all work together to stay warm and safe during this winter weather event.

  • Tough wind chills by dawn Tuesday in CNY, very heavy lake snow for the North Country next


    As we have been telling you for nearly a week, the coldest wind chills of this winter season will arrive by Monday night through dawn Tuesday across all of Central New York!

    We still believe that wind chills should drop to generally as low as -5 to -15 degrees (below zero) by sunrise Tuesday. However, some spots may approach -20 degrees.

    These low wind chills can create frostbite in less than 1 hour!

    Important frostbite reminders (on exposed skin) so you can make empowered decisions about being outside:
    –You can get frostbite in 30 minutes when the wind chill is -20 degrees (below zero).
    –You can get frostbite in 20 minutes when the wind chill is -30 degrees (below zero).
    –You can get frostbite in 10 minutes when the wind chill is -40 degrees (below zero).

    UPDATE: Cold Weather Advisories have now been issued for most of CNY, this includes the city of Syracuse. This Weather Alert runs from midnight Monday night through noon on Wednesday. The wind will increase late this afternoon and tonight, the temperature will be falling. The combination will make the reel feel much colder than the actual temperatures which drop to near 0 to 10 above overnight. Remember there was a change for this winter and a cold weather advisory replaces what was in previous winter a “wind chill advisory”. Regardless, the meaning is the same.

    When cold weather advisories are issued, here is what you should do:
    –If you must be outdoors, use common sense and dress warmly.
    –Make sure that all exposed skin is covered. If possible, avoid prolonged exposure to the cold to prevent frostbite and hypothermia.
    –Do not leave pets outside

    During the coldest air of the season, it appears that very impactful and in places heavy lake effect snow will stream across portions of Jefferson, Lewis, and far northern Oswego Counties from Monday evening through Wednesday midday. East and northeast of Lake Ontario, over the northern Tug Hill, will see the heaviest snowfall rates!

    Before it heads into the North Country, portions of the lakeshore communities between Rochester and Oswego will likely see the most snow through Monday late afternoon. Some of this lake-effect snow will also swipe through parts of the North Finger Lakes region and the immediate CNY area. As it will only be over the Syracuse area for a few hours and mostly be lighter, at most we see 2″ in the city. Higher totals will take place to the west and northwest of Onondaga County.

    When you have lake effect snow at the same time you have very cold temperatures, the salt brine mixture will not be as effective in melting snow. This will create icy and worse driving conditions in these counties.

    With all of this in mind, I will first show you the snowfall forecast graphic by Monday early evening below.

    Forecast snow between late Sunday night & 7:00 PM Monday:

    My next forecast snowfall graphic is for new snow between Monday evening and 7 AM Wednesday.

    Expect extremely rough to possibly impossible driving conditions over parts of southeastern Jefferson and northwestern Lewis counties during this part of the lake effect snow event. Feet of snow are expected in a narrow corridor!

    New snow between 7:00 PM Monday & 7 AM Wednesday:

    Stay with the CNYcentral Weather Authority team for updates!



    Get ready, Central New York! As we head into Tuesday morning, we can expect some tough wind chills and very heavy lake-effect snow for the North Country.

    The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Chill Advisory for much of the region, with wind chills expected to drop as low as -20 degrees by dawn on Tuesday. This means that frostbite and hypothermia can occur in a matter of minutes if proper precautions are not taken.

    In addition to the frigid temperatures, the North Country is also bracing for very heavy lake-effect snow. Areas near Lake Ontario could see snowfall rates of 2-3 inches per hour, leading to significant accumulation and hazardous travel conditions.

    So make sure to bundle up, limit your time outdoors, and stay safe on the roads. And if you’re in the North Country, be prepared for some serious snowfall. Winter is definitely making its presence known in CNY!

    During this time, frostbite is possible on exposed skin in as little as 30 minutes.

    Wind chills fell below zero degrees at 5 p.m. Saturday, and are not expected to climb back above zero until Wednesday.

    Sunday morning, wind chills for some areas fell as far as minus 25. With sunshine and breezy conditions this afternoon, highs are only expected to reach 7 degrees, with wind chills ranging from -20 to -10.

    Temperatures and wind chills will be even colder Monday and Tuesday.

    Monday morning, wind chills are forecast to fall -29 to -20 across all of southeast Wisconsin, with air temperatures in Milwaukee falling to -5.

    Tuesday morning, wind chills may reach -30 across much of the area. Under these conditions, frostbite is possible in as little as 15 minutes.

    Wednesday morning will still be bitterly cold, but afternoon temperatures should warm back into the 20s.



    As frigid temperatures and dangerous wind chills move into Wisconsin, it’s important to take precautions to stay safe and warm during this extreme cold weather. With temperatures expected to plummet below zero and wind chills making it feel even colder, it’s crucial to protect yourself from frostbite and hypothermia.

    Make sure to dress in several layers of warm clothing, including a hat, gloves, and a scarf to cover exposed skin. Limit your time outdoors, especially if the wind chill is particularly low. Keep your home heated and check on elderly or vulnerable neighbors to ensure they are safe and warm.

    If you must venture out, make sure your car is prepared for the cold weather with a full tank of gas, emergency supplies like blankets and water, and a charged cell phone. Be cautious when driving on icy roads and be prepared for potential delays or road closures due to hazardous conditions.

    Stay informed about weather updates and advisories from local authorities and take necessary precautions to protect yourself and your loved ones during this period of extreme cold. Stay safe and stay warm, Wisconsin!
