A major lake-effect snowstorm brought record-breaking amounts of snow to the Great Lakes region, especially areas downwind of Lakes Erie and Ontario. The storm caused multiple road closures, including Interstates 90 and 86, along with power outages, school and business closures, and other travel delays.

Summit County is now under a Lake Effect Snow Warning from 4 p.m. Wednesday through 4 a.m. Friday as some snow squalls could create hazardous driving conditions. Anywhere from 2 to 5 inches of snow is expected in Greater Akron with higher amounts possible in northern Summit County.

For those living near the Great Lakes, lake effect snow is not just a weather event -- it's a way of life.
