Early Friday morning, snow started coming down in many parts of Northeast Ohio. Residents in Medina, Shaker Heights and Copley, to name a few, woke up to some snow covering their yards, cars and bushes.

RADAR
If you're heading out on the roads, keep an eye on slick spots.
7:30 AM Radar update. Just a mess. Areas in white/blue are snow. Pink is mix. Green is rain. The yellow and red are usually rain but it is more likely those are fat wet snowflakes the radar just thinks is rain.#Cleveland #Weather @WEWS pic.twitter.com/JaKVI4fhx6

TRAFFIC
The snow is accumulating mostly in grassy areas rather than on the roads. The highways and roads will be slick as a mix of rain and snow continue to come down.
