The weather roller coaster ride continues.
Just when the snow from the last winter onslaught has melted, the National Weather Service says more flakes are coming.
The weather service says widespread “accumulating” snow is expected in Greater Akron Saturday night.
Most backyards will see about an inch thanks to the recent thaw that has warmed up the ground.
The high on Sunday is expected to be around 32 degrees with much warmer temperatures expected by Wednesday.
Temperatures in the 60s are possible by Thursday and Friday.
