This early taste of winter weather is causing headaches for people in Findlay and all across the region.
The snow started falling Monday afternoon and didn’t let up until later in the evening.
When it was over, about four inches of wet snow had fallen, leaving roads very slick.
The Hancock County Sheriff Office issued a Level One Weather Alert, meaning roads were hazardous and drivers should use caution.
There was also a Level One Alert in Allen, Seneca and Putnam Counties.
Most of the people we spoke with say it’s too soon for all this snow.
“This is crazy,” said Nicki, who we spoke with outside a grocery store.
“I really was looking forward to more fall days with leaves and playing with the kids, but…”
But a few people we spoke with are actually loving this early blast of winter.
“It’s cool, you gotta embrace it, we’re gonna fire up the snowmobile and ride a couple laps,” said Nathan and Sean.
And now the bitter cold sets in.
It’s forecast to be partly sunny Tuesday but a high only reaching the mid 20s, and then down to single digits Tuesday night but it’ll feel like zero with the wind chill.
The snow caused many schools to delay or cancel classes on Tuesday.
