What happened
The episode as NWS PBZ wrote it up.
A powerful winter storm brought another combination of snow and freezing rain to all of east central Ohio. The precipitation began as snow, with between 1 and 3 inches of accumulation reported before the snow turned to freezing rain. All portions of east central Ohio reported at least 1/4 inch of ice accumulation, with some areas in Belmont and Harrison counties reporting over 1 inch of ice. The ice accumulation brought numerous power lines and large tree branches down, resulting in power outages to over 10,000 homes across the area.
