Franklin County and the surrounding area could receive up to an inch of snow Monday, according to the National Weather Service.
At 30 degrees Fahrenheit, one pound of salt can melt 46 pounds of ice, according to Cargill, a Minneapolis-based food supplier that operates a salt mine in Cleveland. But turn down the temperature to 1 degree Fahrenheit, and one pound of salt can only melt about four pounds of ice. So the colder it gets, the more salt is needed to melt that pesky ice.When will the cold snap end?
Come Tuesday, the cold snap will end and temperatures are expected to climb throughout the week. A balmy high of 58 is predicted for New Year's Eve, though rain could spoil any outdoor festivities.The Central Ohio Transit Authority has again suspended fares due to the Level 2 snow emergency in Franklin County.
The no-fare policy will be in effect each day when the service day begins with a Level 2 or 3 snow emergency and remains in effect until the end of the day, regardless if the emergency is downgraded to Level 1, COTA said in a news release. "COTA offers this community service to encourage those who must travel to take public transit instead of their personal vehicles; this will reduce traffic accidents in difficult driving conditions and assist the efforts of countywide snow removal and salting," COTA said in the release.
