CLEVELAND - I'm Meteorologist Jason Nicholas continuing our weather web coverage today. For more weather updates, follow me on Twitter @ JasonNweather.

We're tracking chilly sunshine for Monday with highs in the low 30s as high pressure wedges in. Temps to start your day will only be in the teens and low 20s.

Snow is beginning to let up a bit across the region as our winds start to shift. We may see another inch or two across the east, but most of us with see decreasing clouds and a cold night. Lows will drop into the teens.

Midday Update: Snow totals are up to a foot across parts of NE Ohio but most of us have 3 to 6 inches. A few Lake Effect bands are still coming off of the lake, expect periods of moderate snow and accumulations up to 4" in localized areas. Winds are still gusty keeping wind chills in the single digits.

9:00 am Update: Light snow starting to fizzle out this morning, mainly confined to Lorain and Medina Counties. This will continue to break apart through the morning. Temps are near 20 degrees with wind gusts near 30 mph, wind chills are in the single digits.
___________________
Winds have shifted overnight to the west/northwest continuing our wintry weekend. Expect heavy Lake Effect snow throughout most of your Sunday in the warned counties with little to no snow at all south of the I-80 corridor. Isolated areas in the snow belt will see 2-4 inches throughout today with locally higher amounts up to 6 inches. 

Temps today will warm a bit more than yesterday but not by much, afternoon highs will be in the middle 20s. The sunshine comes out Monday warming us back into the lower 30s before our next quick shot of snow rolls in. Snow will return Tuesday, likely only bringing a dusting to 2 inches throughout the afternoon. Temps stay in the 30s until our next chance storm system arrives at the end of next week.
