Cincinnati Weather Makes Snow Removal Tricky
Snow Will Be in the Forecast… But When?
Cincinnati weather may be unpredictable (we’re looking at a forecast reaching 60 degrees F on Dec 9!), but that only increases the need for having a commercial snow removal plan in place. Customers and residents will soon be caught unawares by winter weather and still expect safe and convenient access to your properties.
Winter Cincinnati Weather Brings Snow & Ice
There are many ways people predict the weather, from meteorological models to measuring the thickness of the red-brown stripe on a woolly bear caterpillar. The Farmer’s Almanac predicts colder and snowier Cincinnati weather this winter:
“Winter will be colder than normal, with above-normal precipitation and snowfall. The coldest spells will occur in late December, early January, and late January through mid-February. The snowiest periods will be in late December through mid-January and late January through mid-February.”
Here’s the outlook chart from the Farmer’s Almanac, from November 2023 through October 2024.
Of course, the NOAA predicts that Southern Ohio can look forward to above-average temperatures. Thanks to an El Nino event, the NOAA gives us a 33-50% chance of a warmer winter. And, it suggests we will also experience a drier winter, as well.
So, who knows what Cincinnati weather will give us this winter. We’re used to the unpredictability, and the Paramount snow removal team is ready for whatever falls from the sky. On average, our area receives about 15 inches of snow, and a fair amount of freezing rain/sleet.
Don’t Worry about Cincinnati Weather; Hire Paramount for Your Commercial Snow Removal
During the winter season, we monitor snow and ice conditions 24/7. At a moment’s notice, our snow removal experts are ready to hop in our fleet of plow trucks. We know that time is the most important element in clearing snow and ice, before it’s able to bind with the pavement to create a true hazardous mess.
Paramount CEO Joe Tekulve has spent years perfecting our approach to commercial snow removal. He shares,
“Every snow storm is different and needs to be dealt with on case-by-case basis. We salt when it needs it, and plow when it needs it. We make the call for our clients, because if you wait an hour or more in the middle of the night, precipitation will accumulate and temperatures will fall. Then, you’ll need exponentially more salt, and driveways and parking lots won’t be safe by the morning. There’s a science behind snow and ice removal, and we stay on top of it.”
5 Steps to Commercial Snow Removal Success
We’ve narrowed down our process to five critically important steps to implement as soon as the Cincinnati weather starts acting up:
- 24/7 active monitoring of Cincinnati weather conditions
- Pre-salting when ice is in the weather forecast
- Actively salting during icy conditions
- Increasing salt use when temperatures reach 10-below F
- Getting our plow trucks onto their routes as soon as snow starts to accumulate
