Winters in Ohio are not created equal. If U are in Columbus or Cincy area and think thatâs âwinterâ
. Cleveland experiences Lake Effect snow and Alberta/Canadian Clippers: sharp temperature drops, arctic air, lake effect snow and high winds/blizzards. Central and Southern Ohio winters are Fall compared to being from Cleveland. My wife went to OU in Athens, Ohio. Winters were 40-55 degrees with 1-2 inches, maybe a 5 inch day once, the entire winter. She wore flats
all winter. If you arenât by the Great Lakes you ainât really been through nothing too bad, trust me.
