A powerful winter storm has pounded the Northeast, leaving nearly 2 feet of snow behind in places. The nor’easter has grounded flights, closed schools and knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of people, USA TODAY reports.
The New York City area alone has seen more than a foot of snow from Sunday, Feb. 22 into Monday, Feb. 23, The Journal News, part of the USA TODAY network, reports.
Ohio is not feeling the effects of that nor’easter, though several northern counties are under a winter weather advisory through 1 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 24, according to the National Weather Service in Cleveland. Another 1 to 3 inches of snow is expected. Most of Central and Southwest Ohio was under a winter weather advisory until 11 a.m., per the NWS office in Wilmington. An additional inch of snow could create dangerous driving conditions.
The Buckeye State was hammered by major snow once already this winter. In January, Winter Storm Fern left behind a foot or more of snow in places. And that snow stuck around, thanks to arctic temperatures, until the recent February thaw.
