Worst winter weather cities' list has two from Ohio


CLEVELAND (AP) — Snow on the way won’t help two Ohio cities that have found themselves on a Web site’s new list of the nation’s 10 worst winter weather cities.

Cleveland ranks No. 1 for bad winters, according to Forbes.com. The Forbes magazine Web site says Cleveland winters require endurance, with frigid temperatures and an average of nearly 60 inches of snow.

Right behind Cleveland are Boston and New York.

Columbus ranks eighth, with an average annual snowfall of 28 inches and what Forbes.com describes as a moderately cold average temperature throughout the year of about 53 degrees.

Cleveland and Columbus are under a winter storm warning until this evening, as is virtually all of Ohio because of the potential for several inches of snow.
