Ohio News | NOACA conducts Northeast Ohio travel survey to determine regional transportation priorities

(Submitted)

The Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency (NOACA) recently launched a major survey designed to learn more details about travel trends and patterns in Northeast Ohio.

About 550,000 households throughout five counties (Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, and Medina) will be randomly selected to complete the survey.

The survey data will help set transportation priorities within the region and prioritize local transportation projects. The survey will also help transportation planners determine how to improve mobility, roads, and public transportation; reduce traffic congestion; and enhance walking and bicycling opportunities.

The survey will be sent to a random sample of  Northeast Ohio residents. Households are initially contacted by mail and asked to respond to a brief survey about their daily travel, including the places they go and details about the type of transportation they use to get there.

Responses will be used to understand where people are trying to go in their daily lives, how they get there, and how much time and effort it takes them.

The survey results create a snapshot of how the transportation system in the region is used.

Transportation planners will use that snapshot to plan and develop improvements.

Residents can help by participating in the survey if they receive an invitation in the mail.

Each household invited to the survey represents thousands of other households, with similar demands and needs in nearby neighborhoods that were not selected, according to the release.

For more information. call the hotline at 1-877-378-2749 or visit the website at NEOTravelSurvey.com .

Households can also email the team at [email protected] to answer more questions about the survey.

Republican legislative leaders in Ohio are negotiating with Democrats to assure President Joe Biden appears on the state’s November ballot. The exact shape of the solution remains murky. GOP Senate President Matt Huffman said Wednesday that he's discussed with both parties and both chambers how to address the fact that the Democratic National Convention occurs after Ohio's ballot deadline. Republican House Speaker Jason Stephens has advocated for permanently moving back the deadline, which has tripped up candidates of both parties over the years. Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose says a solution must be reached by May 9.

Authorities in Canton, Ohio, released police body-camera footage Wednesday that shows the arrest and subsequent medical crisis of 53-year-old Frank Tyson of East Canton. Tyson had gone to the bar after crashing a car into a utility pole. Tyson repeatedly said he could not breathe and asked people to call the sheriff while being arrested. It was about eight minutes after Tyson's final words that were captured on body-camera footage before police began CPR. Tyson was pronounced dead at a hospital less than an hour after his arrest.

News & features, winter center, news / winter weather, potentially damaging frosts and freezes moving into northeast midweek.

Those who bought tender plants or own orchards and vineyards in the Upper Midwest and Northeast will face additional rounds of frosts and freezes this week.

By Alex Sosnowski , AccuWeather senior meteorologist

Published Apr 22, 2024 9:53 AM PDT | Updated Apr 24, 2024 2:46 AM PDT

AccuWeather’s Bernie Rayno discusses the differences between a frost advisory and a freeze warning.

Air from northern Canada will drop southward into the Upper Midwest and northeastern United States from the middle to late parts of the week. This will not only set off snow in parts of the northern tier but will also bring the risk of a damaging frost and freeze to many areas, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.

The batch of air, encapsulated by a dome of high pressure , will affect the area from Wednesday to Friday.

The first of two Canadian high-pressure areas delivered temperatures as low as the frigid low 20s F in northern Michigan and northern New York. On Monday morning, temperatures in the frosty mid- to upper 20s were common from interior southern Michigan to northern Ohio, central Pennsylvania, central and southern New York state and central and northern New England.

The cold air and threat of frosts and freezes have sent orchard and vineyard operators scrambling to raise temperatures by a few degrees by using wind machines and bonfires in their fields. Regarding vineyards, the non-native varieties of grapes are most susceptible to damage.

Temperatures have been much higher than the historical average since the start of the winter. This has forced bud break, blossoming and leaf-out of many forms of vegetation ranging from flowering trees and shrubs to deciduous trees to fruit trees, vines and bushes. Anytime a heavy frost or hard freeze occurs after bud-break and leaf-out occurs, there is the risk of damage.

Garden centers, agricultural interests or anyone who has put out tender plants in areas where a frost or freeze can occur from Wednesday night to Friday morning will be at risk.

"Widespread low temperatures in the 20s to the low 30s are in store from much of the Great Lakes region [away from the immediate shores of the lakes] to the central Appalachians, the interior mid-Atlantic and much of New England on Thursday morning," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Matt Benz said.

The shores around large, deep lakes tend to be warmer than the surrounding landscape on a clear, calm and chilly night because of the relatively warm water.

Also, the urban "heat island" effect may prevent frost in some large cities but only to a certain point. There is the risk of frost reaching some coastal areas of the Northeast on Thursday and Friday mornings, including in Boston and Philadelphia , as well as New York City and Washington, D.C. Frost is a concern around Chicago , Detroit , Cleveland and Pittsburgh -- at least for Thursday morning.

"Temperatures on Thursday night may be a few degrees higher than Wednesday night, especially from the central Great Lakes on west," Benz said, adding, "However, it is still likely to get cold enough for a frost or freeze from parts of the central Appalachians to much of New England on Friday morning."

northeast ohio travel advisory

As a special note, forecast low temperatures are intended for a location 4-6 feet off the ground, where official temperature readings are taken. During a clear, calm night, the temperatures can dip 5-10 degrees lower at ground level compared to 4-6 feet above the ground. In conditions such as those anticipated in the region from Wednesday night and Thursday night, it may be necessary to subtract at least 5 degrees from the forecast low temperature for a more accurate reading at ground level.

This is why taking measures to guard against a frost or freeze is advised when forecast low temperatures are above the freezing mark -- 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

northeast ohio travel advisory

As the leading edge of the cold air pushes in, temperatures may dip low enough as moisture lingers for a mixture of rain and snow over the mountains of the northern tier of the Northeast from Wednesday to Wednesday night, Benz explained.

"Up to a few inches of snow may fall from parts of the Green and White Mountains to northern Maine," Benz said.

Farther to the south, the same cold front responsible for the snow over the northern tier set off showers and locally heavy thunderstorms over parts of the Midwest into Tuesday night. Thunderstorms brought hail and gusty winds across portions of Wisconsin and Michigan.

On Wednesday, the same cold front may set off thunderstorms in parts of the mid-Atlantic.

northeast ohio travel advisory

After the high-pressure area cycles through late this week, upcoming pushes of Canadian air are likely to be less potent and not quite as cold. While it is a bit premature to say there will not be any more risk of frosts or freezes moving forward in May, it is likely they will not be as intense nor as widespread as that of this past weekend or what lies ahead from Wednesday to Friday.

Browns’ draft picks from Michigan, Ohio State connected by horrific injury in last year’s big game

The Associated Press

BEREA, Ohio (AP) — The Cleveland Browns selected two players in the NFL draft forever connected by a horrific injury.

In Friday’s third round, the team picked Michigan guard Zak Zinter, who broke his left leg against Ohio State on Nov. 25 when Buckeyes defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr., taken by the Browns in the second round, was accidentally thrown into him.

Zinter, an AP first-team All-American, fractured his tibia and fibula on a play that hushed a crowd of more than 100,000 fans inside Michigan Stadium.

Former rivals, Zinter and Hall are now teammates — already linked by a fateful play.

“Kind of a full-circle moment,” Zinter said on a conference call.

The 6-foot-6, 309-pound Zinter was blocking another Ohio State lineman when Hall was pushed down onto the back of Zinter’s leg. As he lay on the field in pain, Michigan’s team left its sideline to support him and the crowd broke into chants of “Let’s Go Zak!!” before Zinter was carted off.

The moment inspired the Wolverines, who scored on the next play, beat Ohio State for the third year in a row and went on to win the school’s first outright national championship since 1948.

Zinter said he has no hard feelings toward Hall. They’ve only talked once while making a team visit together.

“He is a great dude and it’s football stuff that happens when we’re playing in the trenches,” Zinter said. “But I’m fired up and I think everything happens for a reason. Now we’re going to be teammates, so I’m fired up to get there and get to work with him at practice.”

Zinter said his leg has healed nicely, and he feels fortunate he can pursue his dream of playing.

“I’ve been saying all along that this is the best worst-case scenario,” he said. “I mean, it’s just bone. Bone heals easy, way better than ligaments in the knee or the ankle.”

While it was thrilling to see his teammate finish off an unbeaten season, Zinter said it was difficult not being on the field.

“I decided to come back for my senior year last year to come back with the guys and compete and win a national championship and to go down in my senior night, last game in the Big House against Ohio State, all that kind of stuff,” he said. “It’s definitely bittersweet, but the boys rallied around me and we came out on top.”
