In a conversation with Axios Columbus, Aaron Wilson, State Climatologist of Ohio and assistant professor - Ag Weather and Climate Field Specialist, Department of Extension - CFAES at The Ohio State University, shared that Ohio weather's trend is moving toward shorter, warmer winters by the end of the 21st century.
