CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – This weekend is not a good time to fly, and travelers at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport are figuring that out quickly.

Kevin Flynn should be on his way to Aspen to ski the slopes, but his flight was interrupted.

“We were connecting in Chicago and that flight got canceled,” said Flynn.

He was rebooked on a flight four hours later after 2 p.m., but more than just Chicago is seeing delays and cancellations.

Atlanta, Baltimore, Cancun and Dallas are seeing cancelled and delayed flights in and out of Cleveland Hopkins before the big punch of the winter storm has even hit Northeast Ohio.

The National Weather Service says a winter storm warning is in effect from now to Monday.

Southern cities like Dallas are already seeing ice and sleet.

Cheryl Caris is heading to Fort Meyers, Florida for a family vacation but has a connecting flight in Atlanta.

Starting Saturday night an ice storm warning is in effect for most of north Georgia, including metro Atlanta.

Guess how many times Caris has checked her weather app.

“Constantly, Delta keeps informing us,” said Caris.

This is a glimpse into possible delays and cancellations this weekend into Monday.

The Cleveland Browns will be one of the more interesting teams to watch during the 2026 NFL Draft, as the franchise has several directions it can go in. After another disappointing regular season, the Browns will turn to the draft in hopes of landing more young prospects to build around.

Cleveland’s 2025 NFL Draft haul produced several projected long-term starters like Harold Fannin Jr., Mason Graham and Carson Schwesinger, so another successful group of rookies could be just what the organization needs to jumpstart its rebuild. The jury is still out on whether or not Shedeur Sanders or Dillion Gabriel can take over as the team’s starting quarterback, but regardless, the focus should be on finding players who can develop alongside the rest of their core.

At this juncture of the offseason, scouts and teams are knee-deep in preparation as several important events like the NFL Combine are coming up. While the rest of the NFL and its fans eagerly await to see who wins Super Bowl LX, the Browns will be focused on identifying prospects to help the roster long-term.

As is the case every year, scouts and talent evaluators find prospects they either love or hate, which speaks to the randomness of the process. There are very rarely sure things in the draft process, though Daniel Jeremiah of NFL Network made one exception.

“Friendly scouting reminder- there are no perfect prospects. Except Myles Garrett,” Jeremiah posted.

Myles Garrett was the consensus No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft and for good reason, as he simply dominated the college ranks while attending Texas A&M. Garrett’s rare blend of size, speed, strength, and technique made him a no-brainer to go first overall, and Cleveland hasn’t looked back since.

Despite all the losing the Browns have done since drafting Garrett, the team’s defense remains one of the best units in the league. Garrett is relentless off the edge, and he can disrupt any given offensive snap.

Garrett is a generational defensive player that the league universally respects, but it remains to be seen if another player like him secretly lies in the upcoming draft.

Nate Scheelhaase Will Need To Check An Important Box For Browns

The Cleveland Browns are nearly through three weeks of their head coaching search since firing Kevin Stefanski, and it doesn’t sound like they are terribly close to finding the right guy. A few notable options such as Jim Schwartz and Grant Udinski have gone through two interviews for the job, but there has been no word on whether or not either one will succeed Stefanski.

Schwartz and Udinski have been the two names most often tied to the Browns of late, and reports would indicate that they are two of the final three candidates to land the gig. Another recent report indicated that the third final candidate is coming to the facility on Monday to meet with the Browns for a second time.

Albert Breer of The MMQB shared that Los Angeles Rams passing game coordinator Nathan Scheelhaase will go through a second-round interview on Monday. He said the interview is happening regardless of whether or not the Rams win the NFC Championship on Sunday.

“The Browns have scheduled a second interview with Rams pass-game coordinator Nathan Scheelhaase for Monday, regardless of whether Los Angeles wins or loses tomorrow, per source. The interview will take place in California, either way.”

Scheelhaase has been one of the most highly-coveted and well-regarded names on the market, especially now that Matthew Stafford just had arguably the best year of his career and could win an MVP because of it. Unfortunately for the Rams, this is part of the process and a natural byproduct of making a run for a Super Bowl.

For a team that has had one of, if not the worst offense in the NFL over the past two years, many are pounding the table begging for this franchise to hire a young offensive-minded head coach like Scheelhaase would be. This quarterback room could use all the help it can get, and if the front office wants to give Shedeur Sanders one more good shot to prove himself, hiring someone like Scheelhaase would help provide a better evaluation of the young QB.

It’s nice to hear that Scheelhaase is coming to town on Monday, and we’ll see if things go well. If they do, it’s possible the Browns lock him in the building and don’t let him leave without putting pen to paper.
