Weather and common wear
Chardon, the Geauga County seat, sits in one of Ohio’s better-known lake-effect snowbelts. Heavy bands of snow, ice at the eaves, and freeze-thaw after a thaw are ordinary here, more so than on Cleveland’s west side in the same event. After a heavy band, check from the ground; do not climb an icy roof. Wind and the occasional hailstorm still matter too. We do not adjust insurance claims.
