A Winter Storm Watch for Trumbull County from tomorrow morning through Sunday morning for accumulating lake effect snow…
13.6 inches of snow so far this season at the Regional Airport, with 11.7 of that falling in December… Still, we’re six inches below the 30-year average so far; 3.95 inches of liquid -equivalent precipitation was measured last month.
You won’t realize it right away if you use E-Z Pass, but toll rates on the Ohio Turnpike have increased: the mileage rate for E-Z Pass customers with passenger cars went up to 7.1-cents per mile as of yesterday; last year’s rate was 6.5-cents… It’s part of a five-year Schedule of Tolls approved by the turnpike commission last year to meet operating, debt service and capital improvement costs, And Just what are drivers being charged when entering Ohio from Pennsylvania on the turnpike, when your in-car E-Z Pass transponder makes a connection with the toll gate equipment?… Three dollars as of the first of the year; that’s for westbound passenger cars equipped with E-Z Pass; that’s up from $2.75… Also, all drivers WITHOUT E-Z Pass must stay to the right and pay $4.50 at a toll booth; all larger vehicles pay more.
