LAKEWOOD, Ohio - Like me sometimes, Mother Nature just couldn't make up her mind Wednesday, as whiteout conditions were followed by sunshine, then more flurries and the bright, shiny sun again in northeast Ohio.

It all happened before noon. If you looked out your window, at times, it was snowing and blowing so hard, it looked to be whiteout conditions.

If you turned your eyes for only a few minutes, you would've missed the white stuff and instead got a glimpse of sunshine.

Our reporter Paul Kiska took the above video while driving through Lakewood around 12 p.m. The photo was taken by one of our videographers at the same time in Cleveland, on East 116th Street and Buckeye Road.

The snow picked up again for several minutes before stalling and turning again to sunshine.

Though it may be chilly outside, it looks like Mother Nature decided to let the sun stick around and made the snow go away.
