CINCINNATI â Along with the snow in Ohio, some records have fallen as the state got some arctic weather in April.
Toledo saw its largest late-season snowfall Tuesday, recording 5 inches. Temperatures early Thursday are expected to dip into the mid-20s and approach historic lows.
The National Weather Service recorded 2.3 inches of snow Wednesday at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Hebron, Kentucky, topping the 1901 record for April 21 of 1.5 inches.
Forecaster Allen Randall in Wilmington said a deep low-pressure system moving across the Ohio Valley on Tuesday evening created the conditions for the late-April snow.
âOf course this is a rare event,â Randall said. âThe fact that it fell at night helped the snow accumulate.â
