The largest local snow accumulation was seen in Brookville where eight inches fell, according to the National Weather Service office in Wilmington, Ohio.
Sunman had five inches. Lawrenceburg and Harrison each got three. The Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport recorded 2.8 inches of snow Wednesday.
