19 First Alert Weather Day: Lake-effect snow winds down tonight but more coming Friday

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – It is certainly looking and feeling like winter across Northeast Ohio tonight.
Temperatures remain fairly steady in the teens overnight as wind chills hover just above zero.
Friday morning will be dry to start, but system snow moves in to the region from late morning and lasts through the early evening hours -around sunset again.
In general, an inch or less of snow accumulation is expected with locally higher amounts up to two inches possible.
High temperatures climb to around freezing – 32 degrees – late Friday afternoon as winds remain gusty.
After a brief break Friday evening, yet another round of system snow is expected from late Friday night into Saturday.
Two inches or less of accumulation comes with this round.
Sunday will finally be dry, but temperatures will be back in the teens for the afternoon.
Lake-effect snow is possible again on M.L.K. Day Monday along with gusty winds.
Tuesday morning needs to be monitored for the potential for dangerously cold wind chills.
As low temperatures plummet in the single digits, wind chills may be 10 degrees below zero or colder.
Arctic air sticks around Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday, and the next snow opportunity is Wednesday as well.
