Northeast Ohio cities issue Snow Emergency Parking Bans for Thursday

CLEVELAND — Some northeast Ohio cities have issued Snow Emergency Parking Bans for Thursday as much of the region is under a Lake Effect Snow Warning.

Lake-enhanced and lake-effect snow will persist through the Thursday morning commute and gradually taper off before the evening commute in most spots. The Cleveland area could get up to 5 to 7 inches of snow.

The City of Cleveland said its Snow Emergency Parking Ban will be in effect from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

As a result, stopping, standing or parking cars will be restricted and prohibited on city streets with posted red and white signs. Parking is prohibited on these Snow Emergency streets, which are necessary for transportation, medical care, police protection and more.

“Vehicles left parked in the roadway prevent snowplows from clearing streets, which can make driving down these streets impossible. Resulting bottlenecks and gridlock can hamper response by emergency vehicles,” the City of Cleveland stated in a previous release, explaining the parking ban. “For this reason, citizens are encouraged to avoid parking vehicles on all city streets to allow snowplows sufficient time to remove snow and ice from the roads. Vehicles in violation are subject to citation and towing.”

The city also said waste collection will be delayed a day.

Here is the list of streets under the Snow Emergency Parking Ban:

The City of Lorain also issued an emergency parking ban, effective immediately, Thursday morning. The city said it will be in effect until further notice.

The city said all cars parked on the roadway during the ban may be ticketed and/or towed to allow crews to clear the roads.

Citing an ordinance, the city said, “parking is prohibited on all city streets, avenues, boulevards, parkways or highways within the city limits, except at addresses without a dedicated driveway.”

For more information, residents can contact the City of Lorain Street Department by calling 440-204-2550.

If You Could Put Any Cleveland Baseball Player from the Past on the 2026 Team, Who Would it Be?

We are beginning to see the 2026 roster shape up – now it’s time to get your time machines out.

What Cleveland baseball player from the past would make the biggest impact on the 2026 Cleveland Guardians?

Is it 2017 Francisco Lindor anchoring the team from the shortstop position? Or 1948 Lou Boudreau?

Is it 2002 Jim Thome or 2006 Travis Hafner providing thump in the middle of the lineup? Maybe 1953 Al Rosen gets to DH and spell Jose at third?

Is it 2014 Michael Brantely in right field? 1994 Kenny Lofton in center? 2006 Grady Sizemore in center? 1920 Tris Speaker in center?

1995 Albert Belle providing a shock to the system in left?

Or do you want an ace – maybe 2017 Corey Kluber, 1946 Bob Feller, 2008 CC Sabathia, 1969 Sam McDowell, 1972 Gaylord Perry, 2008 Cliff Lee or 1968 Luis Tiant?

King allegedly drove to the deli in a stolen car and walked through the aisles.

Security cameras then show Stegall walking through the parking lot.

King allegedly met Stegall at the door with a gun in his hand and shot him in the back of the head before fleeing the scene.

Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O’Malley said Stegall was a good kid who barely knew King.

U.S. Marshals arrested King on Oct. 29, 2025 at home on E. 147th Street in Cleveland.
