Cleveland, OH
Cleveland is the county seat of Cuyahoga County, the
most populous county in the U.S. state of Ohio. The
municipality is located on the southern shore of Lake
Erie, in the Western Reserve in northeastern Ohio on the
Cuyahoga River, approximately 60 miles (100 km) west
of the Pennsylvania border. It was founded in 1796 near
the mouth of the river, and became a manufacturing
center owing to its location at the head of numerous
canals and railroad lines. After the decline of heavy
manufacturing, Cleveland's businesses are now more often
in the financial services, insurance, and healthcare
sectors.

weather
The shoreline is very close to due east-west from the
mouth of the Cuyahoga west to Sandusky, but at the
mouth of the Cuyahoga it turns sharply northeast. This
feature is the principal contributor to the lake effect
snow that is a mainstay of Cleveland (especially east
side) weather from mid-November until the surface of
Lake Erie freezes, usually in late January or early
February. The lake effect causes snowfall totals to range
greatly across the city; while Hopkins Airport has
only reached 100 inches (254 cm) of snowfall in a given
season three times since 1968[8], seasonal totals
approaching or exceeding 100 inches are not uncommon in an
area known as the "Snow Belt", extending from the east
side of Cleveland proper through the eastern suburbs
and up the Lake Erie shore as far as Buffalo.
Employers
Cleveland's location on the Cuyahoga River and Lake
Erie proved providential in the growth of the city and
its industry. Cleveland experienced explosive growth
after the opening of the Ohio and Erie Canal,
establishing the city as one of the manufacturing centers of
America. Steel and many other manufactured goods were
major industries.
