Great Lakes Snowfall: Schools Closed in Cleveland; More Than 3 Feet of Snow Reported in Northern New York

Days of heavy snow have taken their toll on travel in the Great Lakes region, as road closures and school cancelations were announced again Thursday.

Parts of Ohio received nearly a foot of new snow from this week's lake-effect snows, as well as a clipper that moved through the area Tuesday. As a result, many Cleveland-area schools were canceled Thursday. WKYC.com has a complete list of closures on their website.

While some areas of northern Pennsylvania got more than a foot of new snow from this week's winter weather, parts of the Pittsburgh area saw as much as a half-foot. Several Pittsburgh-area school districts will open on a delay Thursday morning, according to WPXI.com.
