CLEVELAND — It will be a rainy and unsettled end to 2024. Scattered rain with occasional rumbles of thunder and gusty winds will be likely this afternoon. High temperatures will climb into the low to middle 40s.
For your New Year's Eve plan, expect rain changing to snow. Some of us may see the change by midnight. Roads will be wet and slick as we welcome in 2025.
Scattered snow is likely for the area through mid morning on Wednesday. A trace to about an inch can be expected area-wide. We'll be tracking lake effect snow Wednesday morning through Thursday. With isolated Friday flakes, and more lake effect returns again Saturday as frigid cold air rushes over Lake Erie. A few spots by Wednesday evening through Thursday could be shoveling between 6 & 10+ inches of snow.
