Precipitation will arrive around or after 2 a.m. and briefly start as a mix before quickly switching to snow, according to Storm Center 7 Chief Meteorologist McCall Vrydaghs.
Some areas could see four to seven inches of snow Wednesday.
Cities such as Trotwood and Englewood are urging residents to not park on the street so their plows can remove any snow that falls quickly.
News Center 7 will continue to track the storm and its impact on the region.
